I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 373 Have you been possessed? (16)

At the selection meeting, each dream was presented for a maximum of one hour.

However, after an hour of "Journey to the Abyss," the tester showed no sign of leaving the dream, and the guests in the audience did not offer any reminders.

They simply watched with excitement as the other enhanced their dream, then took the golden artifact, the Water Ripple Mirror, obtained from the dream, and entered the new map, the hospital.

The hospital here is taken from the mental hospital in the dream "Out of Control". All kinds of patients come out one after another, and the wailing is everywhere. The intricate terrain makes it easy to get lost and get lost in the endless maze.

Compared to the Moonlit Factory, the hospital is much more dangerous. Without powerful magical artifacts, you can't even defeat ordinary monsters.

The leaders here are even more terrifying. They don't stay in one place, but wander randomly around the map. Any movement can attract their attention, and even if you have a golden weapon, you may not be able to defeat them.

Not to mention the shameless little rats lurking behind the scenes, like hyenas following the leader, carefully controlling their movements to avoid being discovered by the leader, and then looting the player's bag after the leader kills the player, or ambushing the player after the leader is killed, thus gaining huge profits.

Meanwhile, some players choose to ignore these things and focus on looting the resources here, which can also yield good results.

In the hospital, you can obtain various levels of medical equipment, which can be sold for a large amount of Abyss Coins.

These medical devices may also randomly acquire various attributes, which can significantly enhance the effectiveness of weapons.

For example, "Rapid Medical Treatment" can significantly shorten the usage time of medical equipment, while "Life Transformation" can consume life force to replenish the durability of medical equipment. If you're willing to grind, you can keep farming here until you get the medical equipment you want.

However, getting the item is just the beginning. Afterwards, you can upgrade its attributes, enhance it, and add plugins. In Chen Yu's plan, there will also be gem socketing later on, allowing players to grind relentlessly.

Like the Moonlit Factory, you can also collect story fragments here.

The factory's story fragments consist of ten pieces, detailing how a special containment organization discovered anomalies in the factory and sent people inside to contain it.

However, the demonic organization also took notice of this place. They began inhumane experiments inside the factory and used the time-reshaping properties there to constantly reset the experiments.

In the end, they went too far.

A new virus was created, and a large number of experimental personnel were infected and turned into corpses and other kinds of monsters. They could only wander around the factory in the cracks of time, constantly repeating the fate of killing and being killed.

Inside the mental hospital, the demonic cultivators became even more unrestrained.

Chen Yu linked this story with "Out of Control," where the powerful demonic cultivation organization, the Heavenly Demon Society, and its elder "Black" seized control of the hospital, a point of time anomaly, and turned all the patients there into madmen and monsters.

Once all the story fragments are obtained, the elite-level map here can be unlocked, allowing players to venture into a more challenging mental hospital and acquire better supplies.

There, the "black" will reveal its true form, harassing and attacking players at any time and place. The overwhelming pressure will keep players on edge and generate negative emotions.

This instance can be seen as a sequel to "Out of Control". After absorbing the advantages of the previous work, Lu Ziqi and others worked hard to make the atmosphere and scene layout more refined, the passages more ingenious, and the various chases more terrifying.

They also asked Yan Ye and Xu Youran to enhance the text with Daoist charm, which gave the text a chilling quality that made it extremely frightening.

The testers have now entered the hospital and are taking action there.

The people in front of the screen could still only see a bunch of mosaics, but that didn't stop them from feeling the atmosphere Chen Yu had created and hiding in this terrifying hospital, carefully walking through the various rooms and quietly searching for various supplies.

Although everyone knew that the leader here would roam around, a series of screams still erupted in the hall when the hideous-looking dean appeared.

A flood of negative emotions washed over Chen Yu, making him feel incredibly relieved. This was the feeling; it was truly exhilarating.

The testers in the hospital faced numerous dangers, and several times they could be heard whispering, "I can't escape, I can't escape, this is my job, I can't escape," before screaming and running away.

At this point, seeing other players is actually a good thing, because it means he can try to lure the leader away and then find a way to escape.

After several close calls, the exhausted tester returned safely to base, and the demonstration was then abruptly ended.

too frightening.

But when he came to his senses and saw the equipment in his backpack, he felt incredibly excited.

I want to play more.

The viewers in front of the screen were quite dissatisfied.

"Why did you abruptly stop the presentation? We haven't even seen what we gained in the end."

"This streamer is such a coward! The Water Mirror is such a useful magical artifact, yet he only placed a few water mines in it? If I had it, I could kill my way to the heavens!"

"Come on, you were the loudest one just now."

"I just saw some red gear! Tester, you can't just enjoy yourself, show us what's inside!"

"Exactly, that's so selfish! There are still a few random packs that haven't been opened yet, let's all spin them around together."

The host was also somewhat reluctant to leave, feeling as if a hundred little hamsters had been stuffed into his heart, their tiny paws scratching at him.

He was eager to know what the tester had gained in the end, and even considered treating the tester to a nice meal afterward and then borrowing the tester's account to play for a couple of days.

After all, that water-wave mirror looks really fun.

However, the thought that he might kill that character made him think better of it; the other party would probably kill him anyway.

With a regretful sigh, the host picked up the microphone, tapped it twice to get everyone's attention, and then said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the presentation of 'Journey to the Abyss' has ended. May we invite Mr. Chenguang over?"

Chen Yu walked confidently forward, waved to the crowd, and said, "Hello everyone, I am Chen Guang, I am seventeen years old and a student. I am currently a senior at Tianyuan United High School."

"So young! He's only seventeen!"

"Genius!"

"How cute! Would you be interested in applying to our university?"

"A truly excellent dream. Could you share your thoughts? Also, could you grant us permission to create dreams on the same theme? The licensing fee will definitely satisfy you!"

The host was somewhat surprised to hear the praise from the audience.

Those harsh and critical guest judges actually praise people?
Have these people been possessed?
　Two updates at noon, continuing in the afternoon.
