August 24th, Year 24.

In Chan Country Mande City, all the major hotels were filled with tourists, who came with a clear purpose, and that was for the Nightmare Park.

Shen Xueqing arrived at the entrance of Nightmare Park early in the morning.

A large crowd of tourists and locals had already gathered here, and Shen Xueqing also saw many fellow live streamers and video bloggers, who were invited here by the Jieke Group with payment.

“Wow, Sister Calm…”

A small cry of astonishment came, and then Shen Xueqing saw a sweet and adorable-looking young girl covering her mouth, looking at her with an expression of delight.

“Sister Calm, I’m a fan of yours. Can I take a photo with you?”

The girl hopped over, her cute apple-shaped face flushed with excitement.

“Of course, but you can call me Sister Shen.”

Shen Xueqing noticed many strange looks from the people nearby; many people in Chan Country understood Chinese and could comprehend the conversation.

“Okay, Sister Shen, my name is Su Su. I was originally traveling in Siam, but when I heard that Nightmare Park was opening here, I decided to come and check it out.”

Su Su was a lively girl who chatted nonstop with Shen Xueqing.

Meanwhile, Min Xingyao, who had just finished his work, also rushed over, waiting for the opening of the ghost house.

When the time reached eight o’clock in the morning, Nightmare Park officially opened, and the large group of waiting tourists immediately entered like a tide.

And those who truly entered Nightmare Park had their eyes widened by the scene inside.

There were many huge buildings, the walls crumbling, with moss and weeds growing in the corners, and some places even had saplings sprouting.

The steps at the entrances of the buildings were mostly very worn, some areas even broken, and even before getting close, one could smell a pungent, moldy scent wafting through the air.

On the balconies, you could see old cloth banners hanging everywhere, reminiscent of unwashable Blood Clothes or white mourning garments; when the wind blew, a rustling sound could be heard.

“This is so exaggerated. The area this occupies must be hundreds of acres, and the atmosphere has been created so well.”

Su Su looked around in surprise, feeling immensely enlightened.

“Indeed, it’s quite something.”

Excitement flickered in Shen Xueqing’s eyes. Just from the appearance, it was clear that a lot of effort had been put into the place.

At that moment, a staff member came over to receive them and explain the ghost house’s gameplay procedure.

“Our Ghost House is divided into five different difficulty levels: Normal, Hard, Nightmare, Hell, and Unsolvable. The prize money differs for each level. Generally speaking, we recommend clearing the prerequisite levels before challenging the higher-difficulty ghost houses. As for the Hell and Unsolvable Level ghost houses, they are open on a limited basis. For instance, today, if someone successfully completes the challenge, they can then challenge these two difficulty levels unrestrictedly…”

A staff member provided a detailed explanation and then led a group of about a dozen people to a ghost house.

It was a huge five-story building. As they approached, they could smell the scent of disinfectant.

“This ghost house is called Yuanqi Building. In the past, this building served as the Women and Children Hospital, treating numerous pregnant women and delivering loads of newborns. It was then abandoned for unknown reasons, leaving behind only three Blood Handprints. You need to find these three Blood Handprints, make rubbings of them on paper, then bring them to the head office on the top floor to successfully complete the challenge.”

While speaking, the staff member also handed out a stack of notices, mainly to prevent individuals with heart conditions or sudden illness tendencies from entering, to avoid uncontrollable accidents.

“Also, these are the immersive AI glasses specially developed by Nightmare Park. When you enter to play, you must not take off these glasses.”

The staff member took out a pair of glasses, somewhat similar to 3D glasses from a movie theater.

“These glasses can provide you with a brand-new experience. Once you take off the glasses, it’s considered a challenge failure, and our staff members will lead you out.”

The staff member spoke up to this point and shivered involuntarily as he remembered the last time, for training purposes, they were made to experience the Ghost House adventure.

Let’s just say that he had to hold onto the stairs on his way out because he had been so frightened that his hands and feet had gone soft and couldn’t muster any strength.

“I’m a broadcaster, and I heard that your Nightmare Park allows limited filming. Can I bring this portable camera in?”

Shen Xueqing pointed to the portable camera clipped to her collar; most Ghost Houses wouldn’t permit filming inside.

Because once the mystery is lost and the scare points and segments inside the Ghost House are known, it would become extremely easy to get through.@@novelbin@@

“Of course, you can,”

The staff member confirmed again, emphasizing, “Our Ghost House is very terrifying, you all need to be mentally prepared.”

“Cut the crap, I’ve been to plenty of Ghost Houses, I don’t believe there’s anything that can scare me.”

A few punks sporting an alternative style sneered; they had come specifically to rake in Gold Coins. They wouldn’t miss out on the chance for a free ride with a reward for getting through worth tens of thousands of US dollars.

The staff member gave the group a long look and then took the money for the tickets, handed out the 3D glasses to everyone, and finally produced a key to push open the heavy door.

“Everyone, please come in.”

A group of more than a dozen people walked into the Ghost House known as Yuanqi Building.

“It’s kind of cold!”

Su Su was also in the group, following Shen Xueqing into the Ghost House. Just upon entering, she felt a chill invade her body.

“Little sister, this is just a regular trick of the Ghost House, nothing but the air conditioning turned up high.”

One of the nearby punks, Pu Changmin, scoffed with a sneer, “I don’t know what this Ghost House was thinking, letting so many people in at once; how is this supposed to scare anyone?”

Su Su curled her lip, knowing he wanted to show off in front of her and couldn’t be bothered to talk to him.

Shen Xueqing didn’t converse but rather scanned the Yuanqi Building.

At that moment, their group stood in the registration hall on the first floor, which seemed to have been abandoned for many years. The dust and cobwebs inside had already formed their own ecosystem, the door handles were spotted with rust, rotten planks were everywhere, disassembled sickbeds and leftover medical equipment were scattered about, the scent of disinfectant wafting through the air.

The light could not penetrate through the glass windows covered in thick dust, leaving the interior very dim and enveloping the environment in an oppressive atmosphere that sent shivers down one’s spine.

Suddenly, Shen Xueqing felt a vague unease, her sixth sense of being watched surfacing.

This feeling had been very sensitive ever since her school days.

During class, when a male classmate would sneak glances at her from behind, she would simply turn her head and, more often than not, catch the boy looking at her.

Suddenly, Shen Xueqing’s gaze drifted, and she focused on the stairs leading to the second floor. At the dim end of the staircase, she saw a silent, twisted shadow standing there.

In the darkness, it was unclear, but those eyes filled with resentment and malice made her heart beat faster.

“Sister Shen, there’s a map of the building here, look, we can go that way,”

Su Su tugged at her sleeve. Shen Xueqing was distracted and when she looked back at the stairs, the twisted shadow had disappeared.

“Did I see things?”

That’s what Shen Xueqing thought, but she immediately denied it.

The resentful eyes had been too memorable; she couldn’t have been mistaken.

“Could it be because of these glasses? Things are getting interesting.”

Shen Xueqing adjusted the 3D glasses on her nose. Perhaps these glasses could simulate some lifelike yet phantasmal images to the human eye, making one feel as though they were truly in the Ghost House, undoubtedly a new kind of sensory stimulation.

With such a technological breakthrough, Shen Xueqing had a feeling that here, she would experience a long-missed sense of fear and excitement.
