You made all the streamers on the internet kneel before you when you were asked to make a game.

After speaking, the cult leader walked to the entrance of the game "Red Veil".

It was a pitch-black coffin.

To start the game, you have to lie down inside.

Without the slightest hesitation, the cult leader lay down inside.

The coffin lid slowly closed.

[Game loading...]

The familiar sound of the suona rang out.

The cult leader opened his eyes and found himself standing in the familiar courtyard of the old house.

Paper money and white lanterns filled the sky.

But he didn't act as loudly as Brother Long, nor did he analyze things as calmly as Lin Xue.

He did something that surprised everyone.

He did not go directly to the main hall.

Instead, they started picking up the paper money on the ground in the yard.

One, two, three...

He picked them up very carefully, as if he were performing some important ritual.

What is the cult leader doing? Picking up trash?

I don't understand it at all.

Could this paper money be some kind of key prop?

After collecting more than a dozen pieces of paper money, the cult leader slowly walked towards the main hall.

He stepped over the high threshold and saw the coffin and the red-clad paper bride beside it.

A blood-red quest prompt appeared.

[Mission Objective: Lift the bride's red veil and complete the wedding ceremony.]

The cult leader did not rush forward.

He took out the paper money he had just picked up from his pocket and walked to the coffin.

Then, he knelt down and respectfully kowtowed three times to the dark coffin.

After kowtowing, he placed the paper money in his hand on the ground and weighed it down with a small stone.

There are still words in his mouth.

"May the elders rest in peace. As a junior passing by, I'd like to speak with you briefly, offering a small token of my respect."

This series of operations was so smooth and skillful that it was almost heartbreaking.

The viewers in the live stream were completely stunned.

Holy crap! What kind of move is this?!

What...what is he doing? Offering sacrifices to the coffin?

I think I understand now! He's "respecting" the rules of this world!

[Brother Long forced his way in, the professor ignored him, but the cult leader... he was adapting to local customs!]

After doing all this, the cult leader stood up and walked towards the red-clad paper bride.

He didn't speak rudely like Brother Long, nor did he stand by and watch coldly like Lin Xue.

He walked up to the bride and bowed slightly.

"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to offend you."

Then he reached out and steadily lifted the red veil.

A pale, paper-like face with exaggerated blush appeared before him.

As before, the green candles on the offering table went out instantly, plunging the mourning hall into darkness.

A new rule prompt has appeared.

Rule 1: The groom must not turn around during the wedding ceremony.

[Rule Two: The bride is shy and must not breathe before lighting the candles.]

In the cult leader's live stream, all the viewers were on the edge of their seats.

They knew the most terrifying part was about to begin.

In the darkness, the creaking sound of the coffin grinding against each other could be heard.

The cult leader didn't turn around; he even held his breath.

He stood straight, like a pine tree.

A small light appeared, and the paper bride struck a match.

That face, cracked open to the ears and streaked with blood and tears, reappeared.

"My lord..."

The mournful opera singing rang out close to the cult leader's cheek.

But the cult leader's face remained expressionless.

His heart rate didn't even exceed 90.

Because as long as he doesn't break the rules, the "bride" won't attack him.

The paper bride held up a match, seemingly puzzled.

The "young man" before me is different from the previous ones.

He was neither afraid nor did he resist.

Just as the bride was about to blow out the match, the cult leader suddenly spoke.

His voice was soft, but it could be clearly heard in the deathly silent funeral hall.

"Sister-in-law, where's my older brother?"

The paper bride froze in place.

The burning match stopped at her lips.

A hint of confusion seemed to flash in her bloodshot, black eyes.

The viewers in the live stream went completely crazy.

[What the hell?! What's going on in your head, Master?!]

He...he's talking to a paper doll?!

[I understand! The bride is the sister-in-law, and the one in the coffin is the eldest brother! He was kowtowing just now for his eldest brother!]

[This idea... is brilliant! They turned a horror game into an ethical drama!]

The cult leader didn't stop, continuing to speak in that calm tone.

"Sister-in-law, you must be very lonely here all by yourself."

"My older brother...does he have some unfulfilled wish?"

"Tell me, and I'll help him finish it."

"We're family, aren't we?"

With each word the cult leader spoke, the resentment on the paper bride seemed to dissipate.

The open wound on her face is slowly healing.

The tears of blood in his eyes stopped flowing.

In the end, she did not blow out the match.

Instead, he used that match to relight the two green candles on the offering table.

The funeral hall was restored to its former glory.

Although the eerie green light was still there, the deadly sense of oppression had disappeared.

The paper bride bowed deeply to the cult leader.

Then she stepped aside, sat back in the armchair, and remained motionless.

It was as if nothing had happened.

A new line of text appeared before the cult leader.

The hidden quest "A Family Member's Entrustment" has been triggered.

Congratulations! You've gained the "Big Brother's approval," and the wedding ceremony is exempt.

[Completion Rating: S (Perfect)]

Congratulations! You have become the world's first player to achieve a perfect completion of "The Red Veil".

The world announcement rang out at that moment.

All online players on the entire Nebula platform saw this message.

The entire internet is buzzing!

"You've cleared the game?"

"The Red Veil...I've already finished playing it?"

"A perfect clear?!"

The moment the global announcement rang out, the entire Federation's internet seemed to be put on pause.

Countless players who were playing games, watching live streams, or scrolling through videos stopped what they were doing, their faces filled with disbelief.

The movie "Red Veil" is known as an "unsolvable" horror experience, as it scared the raging dragon brother to his knees and gave the iceberg professor psychological trauma.

In the hands of an obscure "cult leader," it was cracked in less than half an hour.

Moreover, it happened in a way that no one expected.

There was no brute-force attack, and no data analysis.

It's based on...emotional intelligence?

The streamer's live stream has surpassed 30 million viewers, with the barrage of comments so dense that the screen is almost unreadable.

I'm speechless, I'm really speechless, not because I'm scared, but because I'm impressed!

[So this is how the game is played? What were we doing all this time? Trying to outdo the NPCs in who was tougher?]

I finally understand! The planner wasn't trying to scare us to death; he was teaching us " manners"!

If you respect the rules enough, and even understand them better than the rules themselves, then the rules can't touch you!

This is a case of professional gamers overwhelming ordinary players!

Countless people flocked to the "underworld zone," wanting to imitate the cult leader's actions.

They imitated the cult leader, first picking up paper money, then kowtowing to the coffin, and then calling the bride "sister-in-law".

But most of them broke down the moment the veil was lifted.

That face, streaked with blood and tears, was incredibly impactful.

Many people screamed in fright as soon as they uttered "Sister-in-law..." and were then uncontrollably forced to the ground, completing the "Brother Long's style" kneeling ceremony.

As it turns out, the thought process can be copied, but the mental fortitude cannot.

At this moment, the "leader of the Scientology Cult," who was at the center of the incident, has withdrawn from the game "Red Veil."

He stood before the entrance to the coffin, his expression remaining calm.

It's as if the "perfect clear" that just went viral was just a trivial little thing.

He ignored the "Master is awesome" messages flooding the live stream and instead turned his attention to another game entrance next to him.

—The Embroidered Shoes

The entrance was a dark and deep corridor with no end in sight.

The cult leader spoke calmly to the live stream camera:

"Now, let's deal with the second one."

After saying that, he strode into the corridor.

The viewers in the live stream, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, were on tenterhooks once again.

[Brother Long's nightmare has arrived! Wall-penetrating warning! High energy ahead!]

[Master, what are you going to call that little girl this time? Niece?]
