Building a skyscraper to survive, all the female colleagues in the company begged me to carry them.

Liu Lingqing laughed heartily beside her: "Brother Huang Tang, now that you've said that, they're even more disobedient. Look at those guys, their eyes are practically sparkling."

Huang Tang: "..."

He took a deep breath, pulled Liu Lingqing up, and stepped into the Anywhere Door.

A flash of white light.

The two disappeared through the portal of light.

Behind him, the women started chattering amongst themselves.

"Do you guys think spanking is real or fake?"

"Do you hope it's true or false?"

"I...I don't want that!"

"Then why are you blushing?"

"Mind your own business!"

…………

Huang Tang and Liu Lingqing opened their eyes and found themselves standing in a strange forest.

The trees twisted into human shapes, their branches reaching towards the sky like arms, and blurry human faces faintly visible on the bark.

Bats hovered overhead, and the sky was a dark red.

Like a curtain soaked in blood!

Scattered on the ground were fragments of cloaks, tattered shoes, and... human bones!

Liu Lingqing instinctively grabbed Huang Tang's arm.

"Where...where is this?" Her voice trembled slightly.

Huang Tang didn't speak, but looked around.

There were three paths ahead, each leading deep into the forest, and none of them looked very safe.

He enabled developer mode.

A prompt appears before your eyes:

The middle path: You'll encounter man-eating wolves.

The path on the left: Leading towards the candy store.

[The path on the right: To Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother's house]

"How's it going?" Liu Lingqing leaned closer. "Which way?"

Huang Tang pondered for a moment.

Three paths, three different storylines.

He thought for a moment: "Let's go to Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother's house first. I know this fairy tale best."

The two stepped onto the road on the right.

After walking for about ten minutes, Liu Lingqing suddenly stopped and pointed behind a big tree.

"Someone's there!"

Behind the tree, a little girl in a red cloak was huddled up, shivering.

She raised her head, revealing a pale face with tears in her eyes.

"Help...help me..." the little girl said in a trembling voice, "I met a wolf in the forest and twisted my ankle...can you take me to my grandma's house? There will be a big reward..."

Liu Lingqing's eyes lit up: "It's Little Red Riding Hood! We've triggered the main storyline! We're so lucky!"

She was about to step forward when Huang Tang grabbed her arm.

"etc."

Huang Tang stared at the pitiful little red hat and opened [Developer Mode].

A prompt appears:

This is a not-so-kind Little Red Riding Hood; she might be a wolf in disguise.

Huang Tang frowned.

Could it be a wolf?

That is uncertainty.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps approached.

Another Little Red Riding Hood rushed out of the woods, holding a gleaming knife in her hand.

"Don't believe her!" she shouted, pointing at Little Red Riding Hood on the ground. "She's a wolf in disguise! I'm the real Little Red Riding Hood!"

Liu Lingqing was stunned.

Two little red hoods?

The fairy tales she read weren't like that!

"Nonsense!" Little Red Riding Hood struggled to her feet. "You're the wolf! You're trying to fool them!"

"Shut up! How many people have you killed!"

"You're the one who killed someone!"

The two little red hoodies were arguing back and forth, making a huge fuss.

Liu Lingqing looked at Huang Tang: "Which one should we believe?"

Huang Tang is reading the notification.

[Little Red Riding Hood with a knife is also not very kind; she might be a wolf in disguise.]

Huang Tang: "..."

Saying it means not saying it.

Both are "possible," and both are "not very kind."

What should we do then?

Huang Tang decided that since both of them were bad, he would kill them both.

He opened the system space to reach for his gun.

[System notification: Conventional weapons cannot be used on this map]

Huang Tang was stunned.

What does that mean?

He tried again, but the pistol and shotgun in the system space were all grayed out and could not be retrieved.

Huang Tang had no choice but to turn on [Developer Mode] again.

A prompt appears:

[Rules of this world: Only a hunter's gun can kill a wolf. Only a wolf can eat Little Red Riding Hood. Other weapons are ineffective.]

Huang Tang: "..."

He finally understood why Lord Mengchang said he couldn't understand the rules, and that most players had died here.

Without the "Developer Mode," he would be completely baffled.

"Let's go." He pulled Liu Lingqing up and turned to leave.

"They just left like that?" Liu Lingqing was stunned. "Those two little red hats..."

"We can't choose either one," Huang Tang said in a low voice. "If we choose either one, we'll all die."

The two quickly left.

Behind them, two little red hoodies watched their retreating figures, their eyes simultaneously flashing with malice.

Before long, several more players arrived.

They were fully equipped and looked much more confident than Huang Tang and his companion.

Little Red Riding Hood, who had sprained her ankle, immediately began her performance: "Help me... I've been bitten by a wolf..."

Little Red Riding Hood, wielding a knife, rushed out: "Don't believe her! She's a wolf!"

The players exchanged glances.

One of the overweight guys smiled confidently: "Based on my years of gaming experience, the more innocent someone looks, the more deadly they are. Let's help the one with the knife!"

The group approached Little Red Riding Hood, who was holding a knife.

As soon as she approached, Little Red Riding Hood, holding a knife, curled up a sinister smile.

The next second, a flash of light appeared.

"puff!"

The knife was plunged directly into the fat man's neck.

Fresh blood gushed out.

"You...you..."

The fat guy's eyes widened, and he slumped down limply.

The remaining players screamed and ran away.

"Choose that one! Choose the one for sprained ankle!"

Several people rushed towards Little Red Riding Hood, who had sprained her ankle.

Little Red Riding Hood, who had sprained her ankle, also smiled.

Her body began to swell, her skin tore open, revealing gray fur.

A giant wolf appeared before them.

"ah--!!!"

A scream rang out.

One bite at a time.

In less than a minute, all four of them became the wolf's dinner.

The sprained-foot wolf licked the blood from the corner of his mouth and said regretfully, "It's a pity that the first two people got away."

Little Red Riding Hood sheathed her knife and sneered, "They can't escape. Once you're in this forest, you're not going out."

The two monsters returned to their respective positions, waiting for the next batch of players to die.
