"Welcome to Thriller Paradise." This time the voice sounded like a middle-aged man, and he was slurring his words.
【Loading complete. You are currently in Team Survival Mode (Normal).】
【This mode provides a scenario introduction and has a chance of triggering side hidden quests and special worldviews.】

【The scenario introduction will now play. The game will begin immediately after the introduction is complete.】
The scene Feng Bujue saw quickly turned into a first-person perspective real-time CG movie, quite like the opening of Call of Duty.
The camera showed him "descending" in the air, but he wasn't wearing a military uniform. He was still wearing the game's default black long-sleeved T-shirt and pants. Before him was a scene of blue skies, white clouds, and gentle sunshine.
The camera turned downwards, and he could see a modern city with towering buildings below.
The system voice began to play simultaneously with subtitles: 【You are a member of a search and rescue team, ordered to find Dr. Ashford, an employee of Allerbmu Corporation, in this city. However, due to an unexpected aircraft malfunction, you and your five other teammates unfortunately lost all communication equipment and heavy firepower weapons while parachuting, and were scattered throughout the city.】
"What is Allerbmu... isn't that just 'umbrella' spelled backwards?" Feng Bujue said while looking at the subtitles that appeared before him. "Then, the city name should just be Raccoon City's English name spelled backwards and then transliterated, right?"
【An unknown virus is raging in this city of Nooccar.】
"Wow... they actually did it!"
【This virus, codenamed "Z", possesses extreme biological hazards. The four most significant characteristics are: 100% contagiousness, 100% lethality, transmission through exposed mucous membranes and all bodily fluids, and inability to spread through air or water.】
"Damn! Just say it's the T-virus, what's with the Z? Who can't see through the nature of this scenario?"
【All infected individuals have turned into... vampire werewolf zombies.】
"Eh?" Feng Bujue suddenly froze, and some very unpleasant images flashed through his mind...
【The basic abilities and habits of these monsters are no different from those of ordinary zombies, but they also possess some characteristics of werewolves and vampires, abbreviated as... Blood Wolf Zombies.】
"Huh?"
【Silverware can burn the bodies of Blood Wolf Zombies, and the smell of garlic mixed with saliva can produce a certain deterrent effect on them. Their mobility and intelligence are extremely low. Killing them requires either decapitation or crushing the back of their heads.】
"Isn't that even weaker than ordinary zombies? What's the point of this setting!"
【Blood Wolf Zombies hate sunlight, but sunlight does not cause them substantial harm. They have a strong sense of smell and are somewhat responsive to sounds and flashes of light. Their desire for flesh is unrelated to their digestive system, even if they lose their jaws, esophagus, stomach, and other related organs... they will continue to try to tear apart their prey and put it into their mouths. All living people will become their targets.】
This introductory CG and narration were quite long, probably because it takes a while to fall from the sky. After the introduction ended, the last scene showed Feng Bujue landing on the rooftop of a roadside shop.
A second later, Feng Bujue's own vision merged with the scene, officially loading him into the game. He wasn't carrying a parachute or anything like that, so it seemed the system had deleted it, saving him the trouble of untangling it.
【Main Quest Triggered】The prompt appeared immediately.
This time, the six players were scattered across the map before the scenario began, a situation Feng Bujue had never encountered before. He opened the menu and first looked at the content of the main quest: 【Enter and search the Allerbmu Corporation building to find Dr. Ashford's whereabouts.】
Next, he looked at the status of the team column, which displayed five names: 【Wang Tanzhi】【Wushuang Shangjiang Pan Feng】【Qian Ren Zhan Hua Xiong】【Mingzi Zhen Nan Qu】【Jibei Shaoye】
Feng Bujue thought, "Pan Feng and Hua Xiong must be on the same team... Come to think of it, it seems like all the players in this scenario are male."
"Ugh—" Suddenly, a muffled groan sounded behind Feng Bujue.
Feng Bujue turned his head and saw a... or rather, a Blood Wolf Zombie, limping towards him.
The creature's appearance was roughly as follows: Its body was covered in fur, but its hands and face were not. Not only was there no fur, but the skin was also very pale. Its face was human-like, and its mouth was filled with vampire-like fangs. In addition, it had the characteristics of zombies, such as hideous wounds and decaying limbs.
The monster was walking very slowly, perhaps because exposure to sunlight made its movements even more sluggish, and it was foolish enough to make meaningless moans to reveal its location.
Feng Bujue stared at this guy for a few seconds with a forty-five-degree downward glance, then circled halfway around to the side and walked behind the monster...
The monster limped slowly, turning around to face Feng Bujue again. It groaned softly and approached him.
"So slow..." Feng Bujue didn't even bother taking out a weapon from his inventory. He was too lazy to kill this monster. He simply walked straight towards the door leading out of the rooftop.
The Blood Wolf Zombie behind him was still approaching him, but its movement speed was slower than Feng Bujue's normal walking speed.
Feng Bujue opened the rooftop door, which led to the stairs downstairs. Although he felt a little disdain for the strength of the monsters in this scenario, he still cautiously observed the situation behind the door before entering. Before leaving, Feng Bujue didn't forget to close the door...
Going down the stairs, the first floor was an ordinary small restaurant. The kitchen was across from the bar, and there was a row of tables and chairs by the street-facing window. There were also some seats by the bar. Some of the tables still had leftover food on them, such as sandwiches, fries, and bacon and eggs. At this moment, these things had become a feast for the flies.
While Feng Bujue was looking around, he heard another groan.
"Ugh—" There was also a Blood Wolf Zombie inside the bar. Its upper body was leaning against the oven, while its lower body had been eaten away, and the contents of its intestines were all over the floor. Seeing Feng Bujue appear nearby, the monster raised its arm in his direction, made a few noises, almost saying, "Come to my bowl."
Feng Bujue ignored this guy. He looked at the street outside through the window. As far as he could see, there were indeed a few Blood Wolf Zombies wandering around, but they were all hiding in the shadows of the buildings, and their movements were equally slow.
"Hmm... it doesn't seem very dangerous. I'll do an experiment for now." He took out a pipe wrench, broke into the storage room, and two minutes later, walked out with a basket of garlic.
Feng Bujue put the basket on the bar, took out a garlic, put away the pipe wrench, took out a kitchen knife, cut open a bit of the garlic skin, picked a clove of raw garlic, and put it in his mouth to chew.
In Thriller Paradise, eating can simulate a taste that is almost identical to the real thing, and eating too much will also produce a feeling of fullness, but naturally, nothing will actually be added to the player's stomach in reality. Both the taste and the feeling of fullness are illusions created by the neural connection system.
After the spicy and hot taste bloomed on the tip of his tongue, Feng Bujue went behind the bar and approached the Blood Wolf Zombie on the ground. The latter had already lowered its arm, seeming to have lost its appetite for eating people. It seemed that the smell of garlic did have an effect.
Feng Bujue even approached obnoxiously, stretching his neck and breathing "Ha—" in the monster's direction from about a meter away.
The monster actually started crawling on the ground, trying to get away from Feng Bujue.
"Hehe... this scenario is simply paradise." Feng Bujue's face was filled with excitement. He had decided to grind in this city until he was satisfied.
