Feng Bujue, Level 29
Wang Tanzhi, Level 30
Your team is joining a 2v2 Thriller Paradise.
Your team has selected opponents and is awaiting confirmation…
Confirmed. Scenario is generating…
Loading. Please wait.
Feng Bujue immediately felt weightless, and his vision went black.
Then, he heard a child's scream in his ear: "Make your opponents tremble! Let them experience true terror! Ah—"
Loading complete. You are currently in Thriller Paradise.
This mode provides a scenario introduction and has a chance of triggering side quests and special worldviews.
Scenario Victory Reward: Puzzle Card *2
The scenario introduction will now play. The game will begin immediately after playback.
The opening CG began to play.
The screen showed a very large building.
In the early 22nd century, Jinyou Group has become the largest global chain enterprise on Earth.
As everyone knows, Jinyou started in the retail industry and became the industry leader in five years.
Today, in the Jinyou supermarkets, you can find "everything." Whether it is clothing, fabrics, medicines, toys, daily necessities, home appliances, jewelry, cosmetics, auto parts, small yachts... everything is available here. Even if you bring a ten-year-old electronic product that has long been discontinued, you can still buy related accessories or have it repaired.
As the narration spoke, the screen quickly zoomed down from a high-altitude overhead view to the side of the building. You could see a five-pointed star logo everywhere on the exterior wall of the building, with the words "Jinyou" on both sides of the logo.
This is the largest Jinyou Mall in the world.
Night has fallen, business hours are long over, and settlement and cleaning work have been completed.
As people leave, the huge building has lost its hustle and bustle, leaving only silence and darkness.
But... every time the midnight bell rings...
The CG and voice both stopped abruptly, and the system prompt immediately sounded:
Main Quest Triggered
Kill all members of the opposing team
Side Quest Triggered
Join the Classic faction and end the war
"Hmm... they're giving a side quest right away..." Feng Bujue muttered as he looked at the two quests that popped up in the game menu.
Before he could think too much, the scenario officially began.
Although his vision was still pitch black, the feeling of regaining the ability to move was very obvious.
Feng Bujue quickly took out a flashlight from his backpack, first covering the light-emitting end with his hand, and then turning on the switch.
Considering Bei Ling's sniping ability, reaction speed, and reasoning level... Feng Bujue didn't dare to be careless at all. His caution could be seen from this simplest of actions.
Without knowing the surrounding situation, the light from the flashlight could be fatal. If he revealed his position, even if he wasn't instantly killed, he would be in a completely passive position.
Therefore, Feng Bujue chose to cover the flashlight with his hand before turning it on, first using the faint light from the gap between his fingers to explore the situation around him, and then make plans.
However... the next second, an obvious light source suddenly lit up next to Brother Jue.
"Eh? Brother Jue, why are you covering the flashlight?" Xiao Tan, wearing a miner's hat, looked at Feng Bujue with a naive expression.
"Heh... I'm just being cheap." Feng Bujue mocked himself with a forced smile, and then took his hand away, simply letting the flashlight's light shine straight out.
After scanning his surroundings, Feng Bujue found that he and Xiao Tan were standing in a closed rectangular room.
The room was empty, without even doors or windows. All six sides, front, back, left, right, top, and bottom, were built of the same material, which felt like cardboard, but the surface was very rough and had an unusual thickness. Brother Jue "paced" the length, width, and height of the room, which were approximately 8, 5, and 3 meters.
"By the way, Brother Jue, what did you mean when you said that Xiao Ling takes good care of me?" Xiao Tan asked.
Since it was just the two of them, Feng Bujue didn't have any scruples, and he replied, "You don't even understand that... This 'internal practice match' she suggested is entirely for you."
"For me?" Xiao Tan responded.
"Nonsense, she's not even participating herself." Feng Bujue said, "Si Yu isn't participating either, and as for me... even if I can't be called a seasoned veteran, I have quite a bit of experience in Thriller Paradise. You guys know all this. So, it's not very meaningful for me to play this kind of practice match."
"Hmm... I see, indeed... I haven't played Thriller Paradise enough." Xiao Tan touched his chin and nodded. "So, this is like the three of you are being sparring partners for me?"
"Not entirely." Feng Bujue said, "For pure sparring, we could choose a free-for-all mode, and then the three of us would take turns beating you up."
"Hey... there's that kind of option too!" Xiao Tan exclaimed.
"But that kind of practice wouldn't be very effective." Feng Bujue said, "Because the three of us... as long as we get serious, you have no chance of winning against any of us."
Xiao Tan couldn't deny this... In the few Thriller Paradise matches he had played before, one of them was a 1v1 with Bei Ling just for fun, and the other party easily won while playing around...
"If the difference in strength between the two sides is too great, it's difficult for the loser to learn anything. On the contrary, it's likely to lose confidence and leave psychological shadows or something." Feng Bujue continued, "So, like now, with you and me teaming up to fight them in a relatively even match, it will be more helpful to you." He explained, "Of course, Bei Ling probably didn't expect that in just a few days, I've reached the level of being second on the combat power ranking. This is undoubtedly good news, because according to the principle of strong and weak pairing, it should have been Si Yu leading you, but it's obviously more efficient for me to lead you."
"That's true, Sister Yu doesn't like to talk, she always silently kills anything that gets in her way..." Xiao Tan added.
While the two were talking, they had carefully examined the entire room, but found no clues, nor did they trigger any plot.
"Alright..." Feng Bujue took off his gloves and carefully touched the wall again, but still didn't find anything. So, he said, "There are two possibilities for the current situation. The first is... the system wants us to break through the wall to get out."
Xiao Tan asked, "What's the second?"
"The second is to wait for an event to occur that is triggered by the passage of time." Feng Bujue said.
Coincidentally, before he finished speaking, the second situation occurred.
Suddenly, one side of the ceiling began to slowly rise. After a few seconds, the entire ceiling was tilted by about ten degrees, and a ray of white light shone in from the raised side.
Feng Bujue and Wang Tanzhi looked up together, only to see... two heads gradually appearing in the gap that had been opened at the top.
Judging from their appearance, one was Ultraman, and the other was Optimus Prime...
