Create horror games that scare players around the world

Chapter 77 Found You, Kidman
At this time, outside the tower, the rain was still pouring down and the wind was blowing strongly.

At some point, thunder rumbled and roared.

The noisy movement brought a horror movie-like atmosphere and chill to the silent corridor.

The protagonist, the Wanderer, sees Bracken talking to himself and asks cautiously.

[what are you saying?]
Bracken faced the protagonist and said solemnly.

[We need to get back to the 13th floor, Wanderer.]
[The injured young man is a new soldier. I promised his parents to take good care of him, so I left an old soldier downstairs while we came up to find medical supplies.]
At this time, a 5-second time limit option pops up again.

[1.How many people are there?]

【2.Who were you talking to just now? 】

[3. (Silence)]

Since there were few options, Detective Brother directly chose 1.

The protagonist also spoke immediately.

[Bracken. How many of you are there?]
[Several people?]
This question stumped Bracken.

There was a hint of suspicion beneath his cautious expression.

He looked around briefly and gave a reply that made the detective's pupils shrink.

[Seven.]
Then he pointed at himself and said one.

He pointed at the girl behind him and said "two".

Then, under the detective's wide gaze, Bracken pointed to a place where there was nothing and said three softly.

He pointed to the wall beside him and said the number four.

Finally, he pointed to the girl's side and said five.

[There are two more downstairs, any questions?]
Just as Bracken finished speaking, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck outside the tower where it was already raining heavily, illuminating the world and the corridor in white.

And in this brief moment, the detective was horrified to find that three soldiers who had not existed originally appeared next to Bracken.

They were dressed in military uniforms, with creepy smiles and extremely strange expressions, which formed a sharp contrast with the confused Bracken and the pitiful little girl.

But when the lightning passed and the tower returned to darkness, the three objects disappeared again.

At this moment, a huge wave rose in the detective brother's heart!

Combined with what Bracken said at the beginning, the camouflaged monster
My goodness. Could it be that Bracken and the little girl are the only ones left in this team?
The rest of the members disappeared without us noticing...

Are those two people on the 13th floor still human?

If not, wouldn't it be a trap to go downstairs now?
In the game, the protagonist, Wanderer, also saw this horrifying scene, but he just took two steps back in astonishment and whispered in surprise.

[WTF]
At this point, the real-time calculation and dialogue ended, and Detective Brother was able to take control again.

[Wanderer?]
Bracken wondered aloud.

The protagonist just responded calmly.

[It's okay, Bracken, do what you have to do.]
Bracken nodded slightly and said nothing more.

In the game, in the dim corridor on the floor, he walked forward with a gun in hand, shining a flashlight, and walked quickly towards the stairs.

The dirty little girl beside him was jogging closely behind him, afraid that he would be too far away.

This action fully demonstrates that the NPC is as vivid as a living person.

Bracken, in particular, made tactical gestures from time to time, either stopping or standing guard, as if he was really commanding his teammates.

[We need to keep an eye on Bracken. And that little girl.]
The Wanderer spoke softly, saying something that only the detective brother could hear.

From what just happened, it was clear that Bracken had been entangled by something.

Now thinking back carefully, although the previous conversation was short and concise, every time Bracken spoke, he used the term "we" instead of "I".

Originally he thought there was no problem, but now it is different. This 'we' is probably literal.

All the members of the team must be dead, and now only Bracken and the little girl are left.

If it weren't for the game mechanism that allowed the protagonist to meet him, I'm afraid that according to the plot, the entire team would have died in the tower.

The detective didn't follow, but stayed far away.

As a result, after exceeding a certain distance, Bracken stopped not far away and asked the protagonist to follow via radio.

Okay, plot mechanics.

The detective followed the two men to the 14th floor, and then followed them to the 13th floor.

Outside room 1305, Bracken knocked gently on the door first.

The thudding sound was clear and melodious in the silent corridor.

But the result was nothing.

[This is Bracken, can you hear me?]
dong dong dong-

[Dean? Norman? Please answer if you hear me.]
dong dong dong-

[what happened? ]
When there was no response from knocking on the door, Bracken used the radio again.

But there was no response except a burst of magnetic noise.

[Oh no, something went wrong]
Before he finished speaking, there was a slight sound, and the door in front of him opened slightly, and a sharp creaking sound was heard in the darkness.
Almost at the same time, the detective brother immediately became alert and took two steps back.

This cliff is full of high energy!
The person in the room didn't say anything and didn't respond when I called out. Then the door suddenly opened, but only a crack.

My goodness, he could almost guess what would happen next.

It's nothing more than a monster suddenly appearing as soon as the door is opened.

So, the detective brother stood on the stairs at the back, a little distance away, staring with wide eyes.

It seems that this NPC Bracken has come to an end, and he may die here.

He wanted to warn Bracken not to go in, but the game didn't have that option, so the production team wanted him to die.

At this moment, Bracken's face suddenly changed when he saw the door open. He quickly stepped back a few steps and aimed his gun.

While calling out the names of his teammates, he gently pushed the door open.

Inside, the darkness was thick and dark, and nothing could be seen except darkness.

The detective brother who was watching all this from behind saw it all clearly.

When Bracken shone his flashlight in, nothing came out.

Even the wall behind the door frame cannot be illuminated.

It was as if there was a black hole inside that could swallow even light.

According to common people's thinking and the current situation.

Not going in is what a normal person should do.

But Bracken was visibly relieved, and hurried into the house, stepping into the thick darkness that could swallow even the light.

[Great, you're all right]
Although the little girl was still nervous, she looked relaxed. She turned around and followed him in, but only stood at the door and did not go deep into the house.

From the detective's perspective, in the darkness, with the help of the flashlight, he could vaguely see the outline of her back, standing still.

This scene is very strange.

It was as if what they saw was not the same scene as what he saw.

The detective was very curious, so he went downstairs to the door to see what was going on inside.

As the distance gradually shortened, the figure of the little girl standing at the door gradually emerged.

When her body fully appeared, the detective felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar and his back felt cold.

That girl.
No, there is no little girl.

1305 Standing at the door is a paper man!
The little girl turned into a paper-made figure without realizing it!

No wonder she has been standing at the door, no wonder she didn't go into the house...

This paper figure was crudely made, with half of it in the light and the other half in deep darkness.

She looked the same as the girl, but her originally lovely face had become numb and creepy at this moment.

This change stunned the entire audience in the live broadcast room.

There were countless question marks in the comment section, and a lot of "wow" followed.

But before the detective could see what was happening, something strange happened again in the dark room.

A burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the inside.

The game immediately entered real-time processing.

[Wanderer, I need your help.]
Bracken ran out with a medical kit. He slapped the paper-made little girl away with such force that she flew backwards and fell on the stairs, as if he didn't know her.

[Wanderer, please help me, I can't support my team members by myself.]
[you alone?]
The protagonist heard the key point and asked back in a serious tone.

[Where are your other team members? And have you forgotten the little girl Lily you saved?]
[What little girl?]
In the cutscene, Bracken is stunned with a puzzled look on his face.

[Wanderer, what are you talking about? Hasn't it always been just me and my deputy?]
[I know better than anyone how dangerous the tower is. It is impossible to let anyone else in, so I only brought the deputy team member.]
[And I only met you, how could I have saved any little girl?]
After hearing this, the protagonist immediately calculated and turned his head to look at the paper man on the stairs.

Bracken also looked in the direction he was looking, and under the direct light of the tactical flashlight, the paper man's appearance was clearly revealed.

He stepped forward and kicked it, saying coldly.

[I see. I think I understand...]
[Listen, Wanderer, whatever you have seen or experienced before, it is not real.]
[Only now, everything in front of you, this is real.]
Bracken had just finished speaking and turned around.

The next second, something unexpected happened.

A figure ran out of room 1305 again.

It was Bracken!

He also carries the medical kit and even says the same lines.

[Wanderer, I need your help.]
Then, the two Brackens bumped into each other and were both startled.

Only the protagonist, the Wanderer, stepped back subconsciously.

Click—two rifles were raised instantly, and the two Brackens faced each other tensely, saying exactly the same lines at the same time.

"Who are you!?"

"Who are you!?"

This scene made the detective in front of the screen stunned.

In the dim and silent environment, no one could give them an answer.

Two identical soldiers, facing each other with guns.

Under the light of the flashlight, one could see the horrified expressions on both of their faces.

The medical box in his hand was also thrown on the ground.

However, just as the two were alerting each other, the same scene happened again.

Another Bracken ran out of room 1305 carrying a medical kit.

The line that had been said twice was repeated again.

[Wanderer, I need your help.]
However, when the third Bracken saw two people who looked exactly like him,
click-

While they were stunned, he opened fire on them without saying a word.

The first two Brackens were killed instantly.

Afterwards, he breathed a sigh of relief, his face full of relief.

[Did you see that, Wanderer? I told you before, an unknown monster disguised as us.]
When No. 3 Bracken said this, his face was calm and his tone was steady.

It's like talking about something that has nothing to do with me.

When the detective heard this, he immediately remembered that he had indeed said this when he first met Bracken.

But don't they say they can't talk? And their blood is green.

The blood that just flowed from those two Brackens was real red.

[Wanderer, how did these two people appear?]
Why didn't I hear anything?
Bracken No. 3 looked at the protagonist and was speaking when, the next second, another Bracken ran out from room 1305.

This is number 4.
The lines remain unchanged
[Wanderer, I need your help.]
But in an instant, before No. 4 could run out of the room, he was shot dead by No. 3.

The whole process was smooth and without any delay.

Bracken No. 3 was breathing slightly, and from the first-person perspective, his cheeks were covered in sweat and grease.

[Come out of the house? Impossible. What on earth is going on…]
Just as he finished speaking, another Bracken ran out from 1305, still repeating the same line.

[Wanderer, I need your.]
boom--

However, before No. 5 Bracken could finish his lines, he was shot dead by No. 3.

After doing all this, Bracken No. 3 looked at the protagonist coldly.

[Have you been watching here?]
[These things like me didn't attack you?]
click-

Bracken aimed at the protagonist and spoke coldly.

[Are you really a wanderer?]
[Prove to me that you...]
Before Bracken could finish his words, suddenly, an extremely horrifying scene occurred.

A large group of Brackens rushed out of room 1305.
The footsteps suddenly became dense and continuous, and each of them said that line.

Because there were so many people, this line seemed chaotic and noisy, with a lot of noise.
It just made all the audience dumbfounded.

No. 3 Bracken immediately turned the gun around, roared towards the room, and pulled the trigger.

The next second, there were loud gunshots and flashes of fire.

As the detective was standing in the corridor, he could not see the situation in the room and had no idea of ​​the casualties of the 'Brackens' inside.

All he knew was that amid the dense gunfire, Bracken's bodies began to appear one after another at the door of 1305.

[Ah! Die! Die! Monster! Monster!]
No. 3 Bracken roared madly, shooting and retreating, screaming continuously.

boom--

There was an inexplicable gunshot, and No. 3 Bracken's head exploded on the spot.

Then a flash bomb was thrown and went straight into room 1305.

The next second, there was a crisp sound, and the world went white, with nothing to be seen.

With the sound of a door closing, all the footsteps and lines stopped abruptly at this moment.

Only a deep male voice came from the front.

[If it weren't for that line, and seeing you almost beaten to death, I might have thought you were some kind of monster.]
The white light gradually dissipated and vision was restored.

In front of No. 1305, stood a bearded and dirty man.

He was wearing thick clothes, which were worn out and ragged.

He had a rifle on his back and a revolver in his hand, and he was staring coldly at the little paper-made girl at the stairs.

At this moment, the 'Brackens' piled in front of the door turned into paper figures after the flash!

One after another, they were piled up and all were deformed by the closed door.

"My goodness, so many of these Brackens are actually paper figures!"

The detective brother exclaimed.

At this time, the protagonist in the game glanced at the paper man, looked at the man who appeared, and spoke calmly.

[Got you.]
The man in front dressed as a tramp is none other than Sebastian, the good-for-nothing who is looked down upon by everyone in the survivors' camp.

But at this moment, he came to the side of the paper-made little girl, picked it up silently, and leaned against the wall.

Looking at the face of the paper man, his eyes showed a slight touch of emotion.

Then, take out a match, light it and burn it.

The dim corridor was instantly lit up with dazzling flames, painting the two people's bodies a shade of red and orange.

[The exit is on the roof. You can climb up the tower crane to the ruined building next to it. This is the only way to leave the tower. Be careful of zombies.]
[I came here to find you.]
The protagonist responded calmly again, as if the experience in the tower did not make him panic.

The man was silent for a while and shook his head.

[I have my own business...]
Having said that, he walked straight upstairs.

At this time, the detective found that he could control it.

So he hurried to catch up with the tramp.

Along the way, Sebastian didn't say a word and quickened his pace.

The detective followed closely behind him, wanting to know what this man was going to do.

On the 16th floor, several zombies suddenly broke out of the door, roaring and screaming.

The sound spread throughout the entire floor, startling the unprepared detective. He immediately switched to a shotgun and fired a continuous stream of bullets...

Zombies at night will go berserk.

Their eyes were bloodshot, they were breathing heavily, and their bodies were trembling.

After discovering the two people, it opened its bloody mouth and rushed over at an extremely fast speed.

In the cramped environment, the detective yelled "Fuck!" and rushed downstairs almost immediately...

Then I found out that Sebastian was still upstairs!

And there were also sounds of gunfire.

"Fuck, he's fighting the zombies at night!"

"Wait, that's what's going on! I was wondering why there was only one zombie between the 1st and 15th floors. It turns out that this homeless guy really killed them all? I came to the 16th floor with him, so there are zombies there!?"

The detective went upstairs quickly, and sure enough, Sebastian showed his might and fought back and forth with several violent zombies, and soon solved them one by one.

The detective brother who watched it was amazed.

The same is true for the 17th and 18th floors.

There was even a night demon appearing!
The detective was squatting and watching the homeless man fight all the zombies alone.

He didn't move his hands at all, just watched the show the whole time.

Although the homeless man was constantly scratched by the zombies and bitten by the night demon.

But the final result was that the night demons and zombies were collectively killed.

Wow, even though he was protected by the mission mechanism, Sebastian was able to kill zombies like a god of war.

But his setting is definitely not that of a useless homeless person who is bullied by everyone! Otherwise, why would he have a name? Why is he treated like a zombie killer?

In the end, the two successfully reached the 19th floor!
And it was at this moment that the game entered real-time processing again.

Low music started playing.

The homeless man Sebastian walked straight to room 1900, raised his gun, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

boom--

The bullet penetrated the door lock, and he kicked the door open and walked in.

The detective was also surprised to find that there was a light in room 1900!

Is there anyone else in the tower?
At this time, the homeless man walked into the house and came to the spacious living room.

The next second, the detective was stunned.

Because in the middle of the room, there is a huge strange device.

There are several bathtubs filled with sewage connected around it, forming a circle.

On the sofa next to her, there was a middle-aged woman with short hair, dressed appropriately, with her arms folded across her chest and her legs crossed.

Sebastian ignored the huge equipment in the middle of the room and walked straight to the middle-aged woman. He aimed his gun and said coldly.

[Found you, Kidman.]
　There is no time to divide the chapters, so let's leave it like this for now. I will divide the chapters tomorrow, and try to keep each chapter to 2000 words.
