I Am An Extra Actor In A Horror Escape Game

I Am An Extra Actor In A Horror Escape Game

Chapter 1: Work

For Xu Beijin, this day should have been an ordinary day at work.

He habitually referred to playing a certain role in a nightmare as Shang Gong.

The nightmare is the copy that the group of taskers said.

I don’t know when, humans suddenly became players in the game "Escape from the Sky". But this is a real escape game where players can feel pain and death.

Although everything is not over after death, the player will resurrect and the nightmare will start again, until... either escapes or falls into the nightmare of eternal collapse and endless loop.

Because of this, they don't like the name player more and more, and instead call themselves the tasker. The venue where they perform the task is these copies of the game called Nightmare.

In the game setting, a nightmare is a real nightmare. The main scene of this game is a towering narrow building called the narrow building. The residents in the narrow building are the masters of those nightmares.

The vast majority of the residents of the narrow buildings are muddled and unconscious, and have great hostility and resistance to the taskers. It seems that for them, the task force is more like a group of outsiders breaking into a narrow building.

These outsiders were active in the narrow buildings during the day, listening to the clues of the nightmare from the residents, and at night, they sneaked out of the residents' houses to challenge the residents' nightmares.

It sounds like the residents’ hostility to outsiders is justified.

But what the taskers didn't know was that the residents of the narrow building were actually humans struggling in nightmares.

They play various roles in nightmares and narrow buildings. Without revealing that they are playing, they secretly give clues about nightmares to outsiders and promote the development of nightmares—this is their task.

…Many residents are very enterprising, but Xu Beijin is not included.

The identity of Xu Beijin in the narrow building is the owner of a bookstore; and in nightmares, he often plays such an identity—but in nightmares, he is basically a useless group performance.

The group performers occasionally need to provide some clues and say a few words to the taskers in the nightmare, but at most that is the case.

Xu Beijin has been an unidentified dead body lying on the ground many times. Following the cycle of nightmares, Xu Beijin, who was lying down, felt that he was really getting cold...

When I started working on this day, things were fine. He played in his true colors and was the owner of a bookstore.

And he has entered this nightmare many times to play. The owner of the nightmare is the owner of the doll shop next door to his bookstore.

The shop owner is very ambitious, anD always takes the initiative to let the taskers enter his nightmare, giving clues out and in the dark, hoping that they can completely solve the nightmare.

Outsiders who completely solve a nightmare can go to the higher floors of the narrow building; and the owner of the nightmare secretly pushes the outsiders to solve the nightmare completely, and they can also go to the higher floors.

However, he has fought and defeated and fought.

But one advantage is that every time the doll shop owner starts a nightmare, Xu Beijin can also paddle into his nightmare.

Like this time.

Xu Bei poured himself a glass of boiled water slowly—the materials in the narrow building were not very rich, so it was the same in the nightmare—and then yawned. He has heavy dark circles on his face and he seems to be very sleepy.

In the eyes of outsiders, the bookstore owner in this narrow building is indeed a monster who can't sleep.

There are many outsiders who want to enter his nightmare, but no matter if it is talking with him during the day or digging his head outside his bookstore at night, no one has ever succeeded in obtaining little useful information.

Instead, it spread the news that Xu Bei was not going to sleep at all.

Since then, most utilitarian outsiders have ignored this strange bookstore owner. Of course, some are still entangled.

Xu Beijin felt that this was a very troublesome thing, but he didn't know how to use an outspoken and polite way to let the outsiders get out of trouble, so the matter was deadlocked.

Playing in a nightmare has actually become a relatively easy thing.

No matter how many days they spent in the nightmare, it was only one night after returning to the narrow building. As a group performer who always paddles on the edge and has a knack for fishing, Xu Beijin feels more at ease.

He stretched out his hand happily, wanting to drink a sip of boiled water.

The next second, his eyes flickered, he stretched out his hand and grabbed it, stunned.

The scene of the bookstore in front of him remained unchanged, but the boiled water he poured out was gone.

…what's up! Did this nightmare restart like this? ! Is this group of outsiders such a dish!

His plain water hasn't been drunk yet!

For the game anchor Ole, this day is undoubtedly a day to test his European spirit.

As a new anchor, he promised the audience to randomly select a game from a huge game library for live broadcast. When the name of the game appeared in front of his eyes, he shook his heart.

"Escape from the Sky".

This is very malicious no matter how you look at it!

Ou Lai is undoubtedly a timid, never dare to challenge any horror and thriller game anchor.

But the audience liked it very much, especially the scene where the anchor was scared by the horror game and screamed, or even directly cried. Therefore, in Ole’s live broadcast room, the few viewers all urged Ole to keep their promises, not to persuade them.

Ole could only agree And was ready to bite the bullet. However, before the real live broadcast, he plans to play it privately first, and be fully psychologically prepared.

However, as soon as he logged into the game, he felt that he was about to suffocate.

The character he is controlling is standing in a cramped small room. According to the introduction he saw when he logged into the game, this should be a doll shop.

However, this dark, damp, and dilapidated small storefront does not at all look like a warm and childish doll shop.

The dimly lit, gloomy and small shop was full of various cabinets and boxes, swayingly stacked up to the ceiling, and the gaps in the corners were filled with dirty dolls.

The number is so large that it can make people guilty of intensive phobia.

There were other people standing around Ole, but he didn't care. He stared at the dolls... who were also staring at him.

The dolls really look like living people. The dark and godless eyes look straight at you like this. If the material of the eyeballs is better, there may be transparent reflections—for example, your figure is reflected on it, just like real eyes.

The other people seemed to be talking about something, and Ole looked at this weird doll shop nervously. The excessive panic made him never think of greeting the rest of the people present.

Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on a certain doll.

That is a doll in the glass showcase. This street-facing doll shop has window display cabinets—perhaps it used to be beautiful, but now it is full of dust and cobwebs.

In one of the windows, the scene was set up as an exquisite princess room. Although the fabric has turned yellow or even moldy, you can still imagine the beauty of the past. There, a doll was staring at Ole.

She was sitting on the edge of the bed. She was about fifty centimeters tall and her hair was neatly combed. She was wearing a red dress, like a beautiful and delicate girl, even tilting her head innocently.

Ole stared at her obsessively.

He obviously wanted to move his body, but because of fear and an unexplained tension, he stared at the girl doll, and he didn't even dare to blink his eyes.

He thought anxiously, look away quickly! Why look at that doll! That doll... so weird, tattered, what's so good about it!

…But the doll blinked suddenly.

That stared at him like that, and then, mischievously, blinked.

Ole: "..."

He just wanted to scream when someone patted him on the shoulder from behind.

"Hey you…"

Ole shook his whole body

, there was a vague sound in his throat, and then fell back as soon as his body softened.

The character he used immediately lost his breath, because he was frightened, so when the game device detected that his nervous fluctuations were too severe, for safety reasons, he was forcibly disconnected from the game.

…And this incident, of course, also scared the person who patted him on the shoulder.

Or the human tasker.

The tasker looked at his hand suspiciously and thought to himself, is he so scary? Scared people to death? !

But it was too late to think too much. Once someone dies in the nightmare, the nightmare will restart in a short time. At least three seconds, the scene in front of them changed with a brush, and once again returned to the original state.

And Ole, who left the game, was also a little bit angry at this time. Although he is cooking, he doesn't think he is cooking! How could it be that just because the doll blinked at him, and a person patted him on the shoulder, it was scared to retreat!

What a shame!

So after a moment of fright, he logged in again in anger-then immediately turned around, closed his eyes and ran out.

Can't afford to provoke him yet can't hide!

The moment Ole stepped on the threshold of the doll shop, he suddenly heard someone calling him angrily behind him.

He almost subconsciously turned his head and glanced, and then he saw-a lot of dolls in the doll shop, all stood up, and then stepped away from the furry or plastic short legs, just like this, chasing him!

In an instant, Soul of O'Lai was scared off, yelling, screaming and rushing out of the doll shop without listening to the anxious and violent screams of other taskers behind him.

He panicked, and instinctively fled to the nearest house for refuge.

It was a bookstore, the door was ajar, so Ole pushed the door and ran in, saying hurriedly: "Outside...Outside there is—!"

His voice suddenly stuck.

Inside the door, sat a man with fair skin and heavy dark circles. His face is very handsome, his dark brown hair is a little messy. Behind him is a deep and gloomy storefront, with mysterious and shabby books crammed in the bookshelf.

When the man heard the movement and raised his head, he looked straight at the people, his eyes were hollow, like a demon walking out of hell, because Ole interrupted his solitary leisure time, so he stared at Ou silently. Lai.

The pale skin, the red lips, the handsome facial features that are not like a real person, and the dark pupils... As if they gradually overlapped with the eyes of the dolls who had just scared him out of their bodies.

Ole: "!!!"

Olle turned his eyes and fainted directly-his figure disappeared. He was once again scared to leave the game directly.

But after he left, a certain area on the ground flashed suddenly, and a distorted area similar to a mosaic appeared. A few seconds later, the nightmare restarted again, and the distorted ground appeared before, but there was an extra light spot inexplicably.

…Xu Beijin, who was sitting alone in the bookstore, had a blank expression, blinked, and looked at this scene a little dazedly.

What just happened?

He looked at the light spot on the ground.

What is this again?
