You tell me, this is called daily youth?

Yuki didn't interrupt from beginning to end. He probably guessed that he had wasted too much time killing the novice guide and entered the game almost on countdown. He must have missed the information sharing session for veteran players, but this didn't bother him.

First, there are two old players, and they don’t know each other.

Second, without the protection of teammates, the two veteran players clearly had the final say.

Third, all the players present are from the same world, otherwise they would not ask for payment after returning to reality.

Fourth, the real world and the copy are synchronized, which is a matter of course.

Yuki quickly analyzed four pieces of information, and then felt someone pat his shoulder gently.

"Don't be afraid, he just looks fierce, but actually he won't do anything to you." Li Dan, who looks like a social animal, smiled and looked quite gentle, which made it easy for him to gain the favor of others.

This kind of smile often appears on insurance practitioners, but Yuki's dull look really does look like he is frightened.

"He, he just wanted to kill me?"

"Don't worry, killing teammates in a dungeon will cause unpredictable consequences, most people won't do that."

In other words, can it still be done if necessary?

"Huh, I'm relieved then." Yuki's expression relaxed, and he nodded as if he didn't understand the implication: "Thank you for what I said, what should I call you?"

"Li Dan, just call me Brother Li." He stretched out his hand, Yucheng shook it instinctively, and then raised his eyebrows slightly.

It was very slight, but at the moment of letting go, Li Dan rubbed his palm with some reluctance, giving people the illusion of a male Tong.

"Come and gather first, the mission is about to begin."

Li Dan didn't explain. He just said this and turned away, like a kind-hearted brother. Anyway, he was much more reliable than the noisy band member at the table.

Most people were either in a state of confusion or hoping for a lucky break. Anyway, no one responded to Thomas's deal, which made him stand aside in displeasure. Crowds gathered towards the round table from all over the hall, and appeared one by one in Yuki's eyes under the dim light of the crystal chandelier.

"They are all very young. If the content of the novice guide was the same, the old, weak, and disabled would have been scared to death by the monster with a blooming head and would never have come here."

"Their IQs should be above the standard. If there are any idiots, they should be wandering outside the door now."

Yuki nodded imperceptibly. Just as he guessed, the novice orientation was also a process of elimination. At least there wouldn't be a bloody plot where someone thought he was dreaming and then was thrown out to establish his authority.

This is both a waste of time and unnecessary, but at least it saves veteran players the time of explaining.

His eyes swept across the crowd, lingered on Sakurajima Mai for a moment, and quickly jumped to the girl on her left, his pupils slightly stagnant.

"Anyone you know?" Li Dan next to him asked casually.

"No, I just think that JK is pretty."

Li Dan turned his head and saw a blonde girl with a ponytail sitting opposite the round table. She was wearing light makeup, beautiful nail polish, and a high school uniform. She had a top-notch figure and looks.

Looks like a hot chick? Why didn't this woman just beg for Thomas's protection?

He didn't think much about it, and just said earnestly: "Don't daydream in the dungeon, and don't do stupid things like being a hero saving a beautiful girl. This game is more dangerous than you think. I don't have the confidence to survive. If you really want to pick up girls, you can talk about it first. Players can exchange information with each other."

"Thank you for the reminder, brother Li. Dog life is indeed more important."

"Don't be so restrained. At least in this copy we are all brothers." Li Dan adjusted his glasses and stepped onto the round table, but he did not notice the flickering eyes of the boy behind him.

"He seemed to care about me a lot. Even his slight expressions were noticed?"

Yuki got some more information. He didn't look at Li Dan who stepped onto the round table to call everyone to action. He just turned his head back and happened to meet his gaze.

Unlike Sakurajima Mai, the blonde JK smiled and waved at him, looking like she didn't understand the cruel reality.

"It turned out to be Hayasaka Ai, but if it was her, it wouldn't be surprising if she passed the beginner's guide."

I've already met the bunny girl senior, so having another 'acquaintance' doesn't mean anything. Or maybe this all-round maid is not simple at all and hides her emotions very well. If I didn't know her background, I would have thought she was a simple-minded hot girl.

Wait, I know their background and personalities.

Yuki suddenly got an inspiration, and after discovering that the game did not turn off friendly damage, he discovered the hidden danger.

General Principle Three: Players are scarier than dungeon monsters.

Not to mention the guy in the band, Li Dan, who looks like a close brother, is also untrustworthy. Who knows when he will stab you in the back. To put it bluntly, both parties are strangers and there is no time to build trust.

But Sakurajima Mai and Hayasaka Ai are new players, and Yuuki has never changed the direction of the world line over the years, which means that their life trajectories and personalities are no different from what he remembers.

I don’t know their depth for now, but I know their background clearly?

Yuki grinned subconsciously. If Li Dan at the table knew about this, he would be furious. He tried so hard to emphasize the idea of ​​"we are in the same boat". However, a new player below had already classified most of the people as potential enemies.

"This game is a bit like a horror or thriller movie. Logic and common sense don't apply. You can die if you're not careful. Don't take it lightly."

Li Dan finished his speech with great earnestness, repeatedly emphasizing how scary the game was. However, there was no response after he finished speaking, and most people just stared at him blankly.

"It's a waste of effort. I tell you, they'll know how powerful we are after two people die." The band member snorted disdainfully, and stood up to glance at the newcomers with good looks and the fat man wearing luxury clothes. "I'm not a pushover like him. You guys can do whatever you want with my suggestion just now."

Li Dan opened his mouth as if he was going to accuse the other party, but before he opened his mouth, he heard the sound of the hour hand clicking, and the clock on the wall pointed to twelve o'clock.

dong dong dong.

The dull, vicissitudes and long bells rang, and nervous, fearful, or confused eyes gathered together, making the cold and quiet hall look creepy.

Yuki felt his heartbeat quickening. He opened his mouth but couldn't make a sound. Strange whispers filled his brain.

【Games start】

[Regular mission, Bloodthirsty Red Moon, please survive to the third day]

[Hint 1: This place is under siege by bloodthirsty zombies, they will devour your flesh and blood]

[2: Except for the castle, you cannot stay in any location for more than two hours]

[3: Time will keep passing, just like your life and hope]

[4: Every once in a while, the red moon will send gifts]

【5: Everyone has the right to bathe in the moonlight】

[6: Please, don’t walk alone]

The content was more than before, and the strange sound made people clench their fists. The brain felt as if a knife was stuffed into it. Yuki reached out to hold the back of the chair, and stared forward with trembling eyes.

Opposite the round table was a floor-to-ceiling window. Red light as thick as blood came in through the window, making the crystal chandelier dim.

Outside the window, the red moon hangs high in the sky.

Chapter 6 The game officially begins (revised)

The game officially begins.

When the scarlet moonlight appeared with the whisper, everyone was stunned for a moment, and a huge amount of information filled their brains. But soon, led by the two old players, everyone rushed to the French window together.

"What the hell are those?"

"Do you still need to ask? That strange voice just now said it was a zombie."

"Then we should be fine..."

"How do I know this?"

There were so many people and so much noise that no one would think they were dreaming after the introductory lecture. But when they realized that the horror movie-like scene was just the beginning, not everyone could accept it.

Is this the official start of the game? The monster just now almost scared us to death.

Mai Sakurajima licked her dry lips. Through the window, she could see a vast ancient castle. In front of her was a garden full of flowers of various colors, and further out was a towering city wall.

Under the city wall, shadowy figures were wandering aimlessly, like a school of fish in a bright red ocean. But after experiencing the monster with a blooming head, she knew that these were not people at all, but the "zombies" mentioned by the strange voice.

They will devour your flesh and blood.

This sentence lingered in her mind like a spell, making her subconsciously clench her fists. Just as she was feeling confused, a female voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

"Ms. Mai, do you think we should film in a studio somewhere?"

A voice suddenly sounded amidst the heavy breathing. Sakurajima Mai turned around suddenly and saw the blonde girl standing behind her, blinking her blue eyes innocently.

"you know me?"

"You are a big star. Many people in Japan must know you."

This was no nonsense. Mai Sakurajima debuted as an idol at the age of six. Being of similar age and coming from the same place, she breathed a sigh of relief, and the worry that had been hanging in the air since she joined the game was finally put to rest.

"Of course it's not a movie, but I hope it's a prank show, with a secret door somewhere opening and the host suddenly jumping out." Sakurajima Mai raised the corners of her mouth, but her smile was a little bitter, "Aren't you afraid? Everything is like a nightmare."

"I'm afraid, but it's useless to be afraid. We have to find a way to go back." The blonde girl spread her hands, lowered her voice, and pretended to be relaxed: "It's impossible for us to do it in the dark. Just like Brother Li said, we have to unite. Survival is more important than anything else~~"

It was a very simple and crude logic, but very realistic. Now the last glimmer of hope was gone. If it hadn't been so dark outside, many people would have been ready to jump out of the window.

But now, who dares to try those wandering zombies?

Mai Sakurajima turned her head and looked at Li Dan, who was clapping his hands vigorously and asking the new players who were at a loss to introduce themselves one by one, as if this could divert attention.

"Well, Brother Li is much more reliable than that red-haired guy. After all, he is an old player, and he is especially friendly to newcomers from the beginning."

"Red hair?"

"That's Thomas. In the plot, this kind of character is most likely to die."

"Haha, I didn't expect Miss Mai to be so humorous. She's quite different from the artist I had in mind."

"You always have to adjust your mood before you take on a challenge. Just like you, you are completely different from the impression I have of the students of Shuchiin." Sakurajima Mai carefully looked at the other person's open collar and stretched out her hand. "Just call me Mai, or you can add classmate."

"My name is Hasaka, please give me your guidance~Mai-san~" The blonde girl held the other's hand and shook it enthusiastically, but her blue eyes were full of calmness.

As expected of an experienced artist, he is mature beyond his years and is a very calm person, which should come in handy.

She let go of her hand, quietly turned her neck, and looked at the black-haired boy who was standing on tiptoe and looking out the window not far away.

And this guy is weird.

Yuki didn't know that a maid was secretly observing him. She noticed something strange in his eyes when they first met, and also saw that he was not interested in the newcomers' self-introductions.

He stood at the back, listening to the self-introduction while his brain was working rapidly. He reread every word of the six hints he had just received several times.

[Zombies], [Three Days], [Castle], [Walking Alone].

No points, no rewards, no penalties, no phased goals...

The reincarnation game is really unreasonable.

Yuki frowned subconsciously. He hadn't done many simulation questions like this. They were obviously different from ordinary infinite games.

Clues need to be found from hints. As for the difficulty level, it is unknown and it depends on how the player solves it.

It’s a big challenge.

He took a deep breath. Based on the questions he had done over the years, if he were thrown into a dungeon like Resident Evil, his chances of survival would be very high, but in this game, the chances were much lower.

As Li Dan said, logic and common sense don’t apply?

Yuki was able to do two things at once. While thinking, he also listened to the team's self-introduction.

Leaving aside the two old players, Hayasaka Ai indeed used the pseudonym 'Hasaka', and Sakurajima Mai only gave the name 'Mai'. The players came from all over the world, but they didn't know this idol artist who had suspended his acting career for several years.

"It seems that they have also analyzed that the players may meet in real life, and they try their best to hide their identities. It turns out that their psychological quality is better than that of ordinary people."

Yuki praised his calmness in his heart. As for the others, he was not interested in remembering their names. He just paid attention to their respective occupations.

In addition to these four people and myself, there are four new players in the copy. The slightly fat man does not hide his financial resources and can be called a rich man; the young woman dressed in an OL outfit is a financial analyst; the woman with a dangerous hairstyle and coughing quietly is a housewife.

The three of them have already stood next to the band guy, obviously agreeing to the terms. The latter is rubbing the OL's plump buttocks with his hands open. He can still have desire at this time, and Yuki has to praise him as a hero.

Apart from the two women and one man, there was also a good-looking, bewildered college student and a relatively strong black man who was wary of everyone.

'Rich man, office lady, housewife, white college student, black man, Mai Sakurajima, Ai Hayasaka, plus me, a total of eight new players. Li Dan and Thomas are two old players, the ratio of new to old is quite large.'

Yuki went over the list in his mind before looking up because all eyes were focused on him.

"Hey, it's your turn, you idiot. Are you a fool?" Thomas cursed viciously, and others were also dissatisfied.

This black-haired boy with messy clothes and a lot of blood on them was too dull. He arrived the latest, had the lowest presence, and was often in a daze like an autistic patient.

"Sorry, sorry, I haven't come to my senses yet." Yuki smiled harmlessly, coughed lightly and said, "My name is Yuki, I'm eighteen years old, and I'm a college student. Uh, is there anything wrong?"

After introducing himself, a group of people were still looking at him. The fat guy Fu Ge said impatiently: "Is it that simple? What about your special skills?"

"Well, I'm a medical student and I know first aid."

"Don't bluff me. What can you learn in the first year of medical school? Okay, it's still somewhat useful. It's better than that historian." Fu Ge glanced at the white college student sarcastically and instantly lost interest in Yuki.

Everyone turned away in disappointment and focused their attention on Li Dan, obviously thinking he was the captain. Even the burly black man looked at him eagerly.

"Brother Li, we'll all listen to you, just tell us what to do."
