Chapter 360: The first experience of outlast

After complaining about how unnecessary the game was at the start, Zhao Xuhui officially entered the game.

In the darkness, a sentence appeared in front of Zhao Xuhui’s eyes.

[You are miles apushe, an investigative journalist who has embarked on the world’s most dangerous journey to hell.]

“Survive as long as possible, record everything you see, and uncover the dark secrets at the heart of the mountain mental hospital.

[You are not a warrior. If you want to travel through the terrifying mental hospital and reveal the truth, your only choice is to escape, hide, or die.]

Obviously, this paragraph hinted at the entire flow and background of the game, and emphasized one point: You can only run or hide. You can’t put up any form of resistance.

There were two types of horror games. One had a combat system where one could use guns to defeat the enemy. The other did not have any combat system and could only run.

There were also some horror games in the second form, but most of them were small-scale horror games. Currently, the mainstream VR horror games in foreign countries all came with a combat system.

After knowing that he couldn’t hold a gun, Zhao Xuhui was a little nervous. However, he quickly muttered to himself,””It’s good that you don’t have a gun. Otherwise, I’ll play it as a first-person shooting game.”

After entering the game, Zhao Xuhui found himself driving a car on a dark path in the night.

At this moment, Zhao Xuhui still couldn’t control the main character’s actions. He could only look around freely.

The slightly strange background music, the rustle of the car radio, and the dark environment made the whole game’s scary atmosphere come out.

The main gate of the mountain mental hospital was open, and the protagonist drove in.

The security booth at the entrance was empty. The protagonist parked the car and picked up a document and a handheld digital video camera from the front passenger seat.

This document was an email, exposing the dark truth about the mountain mental hospital to the protagonist. It was also because of this email that the protagonist drove here at night to investigate the truth hidden in the mental hospital.

After reading the email, the protagonist automatically put it away, took the handheld DV in his hand, and plugged in a battery.

After he pushed open the door and got out of the car, Zhao Xuhui officially gained control of the main character.

At the same time, a line of words appeared in the center of Zhao Xuhui’s field of vision.

[New target: investigate the mountain mental hospital.]

Zhao Xuhui wasn’t in a hurry to move forward. Instead, he familiarized himself with the controls of the game.

In the game, you could view notes and documents at any time, and you could also take out the DV camcorder at any time and observe through the perspective of the DV camcorder. In addition, you could also perform a series of actions, such as walking, opening the door, running, and so on.

Zhao Xuhui took a few steps forward to get a feel of the atmosphere of the game.

Obviously, the background of this horror game was set in a foreign country. Before entering the mental hospital, Zhao Xuhui saw a big sign on the side of the road. On it was written “MOUNT MASSIVE ASYLUM”, which was the English name of the mountain mental hospital.

In addition, all the buildings were in the same western style, and they looked very old, as if they were products from the 60s and 70s of the last century.

Under the dim sky, the mental hospital, which did not have many lights on, was like a huge black shadow, full of oppression and mystery.

“It’s quite realistic, unlike those ugly horror games that don’t have any atmosphere at all. Not bad, it’s worthy of praise.”

Zhao Xuhui pushed open a small door and arrived at the empty space in front of the main administrative building.

There were a few anti-explosive military vehicles at the entrance of the main administrative building, which made Zhao Xuhui feel a little strange. He walked to the main entrance of the administrative building, but the door was locked and couldn’t be opened.

Very quickly, Zhao Xuhui found a small hole in the door on the left. He squatted down and went through it. Then, he used a ladder to climb up the scaffolding used for construction and came to a window.

During this process, the game prompted Zhao Xuhui to do the necessary actions, such as zooming the camera, crouching, jumping, and so on.

Zhao Xuhui realized that there were quite a lot of ways to operate the game. When jumping and climbing, the field of view would also change accordingly. It was very realistic, as if he was performing these actions in the real world. It was very immersive.

Also, the main character would make some noise when he jumped and walked. When combined with the wind and the faint, terrifying background noise, it made Zhao Xuhui feel that it was more real.

Zhao Xuhui went to the window and flipped in. The light in front of him suddenly crackled and went out.

“What the f * ck? It’s such an old trick. ”

Zhao Xuhui had seen this kind of killing before, so he didn’t feel that there was anything particularly scary about it. It was just that his surroundings were completely dark, which made him feel a little annoyed.

“Don’t you have a flashlight or something?” Zhao Xuhui was puzzled.

In some foreign VR games, playing in the dark was a common strategy. This was because the darkness would increase a player’s sense of nervousness and help them control their emotions. However, in most similar games, the main character would have a flashlight to light up the place, in case he couldn’t see anything in complete darkness.

At that moment, the system prompted Zhao Xuhui. He raised his handheld video camera and turned on the night vision.

“Eh? This setting is not bad, it’s new, I like it! It’s very befitting of a reporter’s identity!”

Zhao Xuhui raised the camera and turned on the night vision. At this moment, all he could see was a cold green-gray tone, which looked very strange. It was even more terrifying than the light from the flashlight.

“Yes, this feeling is great! Wow, using the night vision of the DV camcorder to observe, what a genius setting!”

Zhao Xuhui couldn’t stop praising him as he walked forward with the video camera in his hand.

Zhao Xuhui pulled open a door that was left ajar and walked forward. Suddenly, the television that was turned off turned on by itself. It even let out a sharp noise, which gave Zhao Xuhui a shock.

“F * ck, you scared me to death!”

Zhao Xuhui froze for a moment. After he realized that it was just a television, he calmed down a little.

“F * ck, it’s just a TV, trash. You’ve just praised the game, and now you’re playing such a vulgar trick on me. Bad review!”

As a veteran horror game player, Zhao Xuhui obviously wouldn’t be scared off in a place like this. He knew very well that at the start of the game, in order to take care of the newbies, this place wouldn’t really kill monsters. At most, they would just let out a few screams and a few ghostly figures would flash by to scare people.

He wormed through the gaps, climbed through the ventilation duct, and arrived at a door that was left ajar.

Zhao Xuhui pushed the door open without any warning.

Suddenly, an upside-down body was thrown at him. It instantly filled Zhao Xuhui’s vision. The melody suddenly became intense and the main character let out an ear-piercing scream.

“F * ck!!!”

Zhao Xuhui was so scared that he screamed. His entire body trembled and he broke out in a cold sweat.
