Agreeing to Create Bad Games, What the Hell Is ‘Titanfall’? Chapter 168: Watch Your Back

Finally!

When all the dust settled!

The flashlight stopped flickering, the baby stopped crying, and the doorknob no longer rattled!

After extre terror!

The strears were finally driven "crazy" by Gu Sheng—

“Hahaha! Damn, that’s it! That’s barely enough to chew on! Not scared! Not scared at all!”

After a tactical water break, Qiezi returned to the motion-sensing pod, laughing nonstop:

“Doesn’t matter! Watch closely and learn well! Damn it, today I have to confront that ghost lady!”

As he spoke!

Qiezi closed his eyes, strode forward with big steps, held his breath, twisted the doorknob open, and pushed the door!

“Co on! Bring it on! Scare !”

“Co on, damn it! Bring it on!!!”

“Damn it, death is the worst outco! Co! Kill if you can!!!”

Standing in the hallway where the lights had just turned back on, Qiezi shouted with his hands on his hips!

The barrage of chat exploded with laughter—

‘Hahaha Qiezi’s gone straight mad’

‘Let’s see who still dares to say people from the Fire Zone are all cowards and perverts!’

‘Does going crazy from fear count?’

‘He scared himself numb, I’m freaking dying laughing…’

‘Nothing left to fear now (doge)’

‘Qiezi has already comprehended the truth of life—if I’m not afraid to die, no one can threaten ’

‘What does that an? It ans—’

……

“That ans I damn well don’t fear death, so no one can threaten anymore!!!”

Ayin also returned from the bathroom to the hallway, voice booming with pride!

“Was I scared just now? That was probing! Got it?”

“Now, the enemy’s true strength has been revealed. She can’t even open the bathroom door!”

“Seems that way, right?”

“Brothers! Little punks!”

“Hey! I’m not bragging, I’m just standing here. You ask her if she dares to co?”

“Does she dare to look at ?!”

The chat almost burst with laughter—

‘Boss has never been this talkative hahaha’

‘Has totally realized the truth of life—if I’m not afraid to die, no one can truly kill ’

‘So philosophical bro, you study this stuff (strong)’

‘This has gotta be a genetic breakthrough, fear tolerance maxed out’

‘Boss evolved’

‘Life is dull, monkeys evolve into humans’

‘So cool…’

‘This is called, this is called the number one in Jinn, this is called—’

……

“Fearless!!!”

Liu Liu held her flashlight and marched forward briskly!

“Hahaha, as the saying goes, when traveling a hundred miles, the hardest part is the last ten!”

“A person can’t stop just because of a little setback. You have to face it bravely,”

“Look at , scared? Hahahahaha, not scared,”

“Not scared at all,”

“What’s there to be scared of! Hahahahaha—”

Liu Liu’s laughter echoed through the stream, sending chills down the viewers’ spines—

‘Sis, maybe we should stop playing or my brain’s gonna break’

‘Sis is already crazy, she said more in these three minutes than in a whole month’

‘She’s like this but still spreads culture, I’ve never heard “the hardest part of a hundred miles is the last ten,” I’m crying’

‘Top scorer from Qingbei is joking with you? Culture’s deep in her bones…’

‘Calling out a cultural desert strear who only knows how to cry and swear!’

‘Zhou Jie: Just report my ID then’

‘Hahahahaha…’

‘The ga’s not scary anymore but Liu Liu’s laugh gives the creeps’

‘So weird, others scream and cry, she just laughs’

‘Laughing makes my hair stand on end’

‘Sis talks too much, worried about her ntal state’

‘That’s nothing, check out Tree-ge’s stream—’

……

“…Hey, you can’t be scared playing this kind of ga, understand?”

Tree-ge held his flashlight and walked toward the hallway’s end, talking nonstop:

“The more scared you are, the more the ghost hunts you,”

“There’s an old saying: the hemp rope always breaks at its thinnest spot; misfortune always picks on the unlucky, understand?”

“Fear is the sa,”

“The more scared you are, the more scared you get; the less scared you are, the less scared you get…”

The chat burst with laughter—

‘Take a break Tree-ge, your words are making my head buzz’

‘A-Cui’s already talking nonsense’

‘More scared, more scared; less scared, less scared, you’re so damn dialectical’

‘Stop chanting, master, stop’

‘The MLM king for real, even brainwashing himself’

‘Are you kidding? You don’t believe it yourself, how do you expect others to?’

‘You know MLM well (aweso)’

‘Too ridiculous hahaha’

‘Gotta say Old Thief’s ga terror level is maxed out’

‘Indeed, I watched several strears one after another, feels like everyone’s gone mad’

‘This is “mad”? My rating is still less than locking onto Bilibili’s Top Scaredy-Cat’s stream, that’s real madness—’

……

“Ah ah ah ah! Haha!”

“Hey—hey!”

“Yay yay lalala hey!”

“Co on! Co on baby!”

Pure Black rushed out of the bathroom into a pitch-black hallway, looking left and right, shouting wildly!

After all the fuss, no ghostly figure or anomaly appeared, so he snorted coldly!

“…Hmph, no one’s here!”

The chat was full of comnts!

‘Another one’s gone mad…’

‘Hahaha Young Master’s lost all reason’

‘Reason zeroed out’

‘Even started actively courting death’

‘Old Thief, don’t you want to see how much chaos you’ve caused? Really—heaven’s wrath, people’s curse’

‘Coward and brave at the sa ti’

‘…’

Pure Black showed fearless determination, completely abandoning his mind, holding his flashlight and charging toward the hallway’s end!

“There must be sothing up ahead, right? There has to be!”

“No worries! I’m not scared! If I raise my voice, then… uh… that’ll boost my courage!”

“I’m just $#%#%…”

Click.

The door at the hallway’s end opened.

A new cycle of reincarnation unfolded before his eyes.

This ti, the hallway was even darker!

Only a dim little wall lamp emitted a faint glow.

The pitch-black corridor resembled an abyss with no bottom, echoing hollow sounds that contained deeper psychological horror!

Most importantly!

At this mont!

Lisa’s voice appeared again in the darkness!

And this ti, it was even more pitiful, terrifying, and eerie!

Because this ti, Lisa was no longer crying but gasping for breath after having her throat slit!

[Ugh ugh ugh—gurgle hiss—ugh—]

[Wail gurgle gurgle—hiss—ugh ugh—]

“I—damn—!!!”

Pure Black completely collapsed!

“Total blackout! No… you… I! You damn well turned off all the lights!”

“I! No lights, no way I’m playing!”

And this ti!

Forget Pure Black!

Even the viewers’ goosebumps rose!

“Wow! Thanks!”

“Who taught you to match sound effects like this?”

“This probably doesn’t exist on PC version, right? Without the motion-sensing pod protection, even the PC version would scare people to death?”

“Oh man—this is terrifying—”

“Damn, I really can’t handle it”

“My palms are sweating…”

“I’m already holding my phone screen as far away as possible”

“Ugh! Soone co take away my ho surveillance!”

“Suggest continuing the fearless chatter mode just now…”

“…”

Looking at the terrifying pitch-black hallway ahead!

And the viewers’ suggestions in chat!

Pure Black took a deep breath, nodded:

“Looks like it’s the only way. Last ti, if I get kicked again, I’m done for real. Here I go!”

Saying that!

Pure Black lifted his not-so-bright flashlight, summoned all his courage, and moved forward!

“Once upon a ti, there was a mountain, in the mountain… once there was a… in the mountain there was a…”

Getting darker and darker!

Lisa’s moans grew clearer!

“Damn! How does that saying go?!”

“Oh! Oh oh oh! I rember—Once upon a ti there was a mountain, in the mountain a temple, in the temple an old monk said—”

“I’m not scared!!!”

“What’s up ahead that can scare ? Nothing!”

“As long as I keep talking, nothing can scare !”

“Blah blah blah blah—”

As if the chattering old monk gave Pure Black courage.

Or as if he wanted to end this hellish psychological torture as soon as possible.

Passing the corner, Pure Black even proactively peeked into the bathroom!

“Is there sothing? Is there sothing? Co out! What are you gonna do? Huh? What can you do!”

“No ghosts, I charge through!”

“Nothing can scare , no no nothing at all!”

Passing through the hallway again!

Nothing happened, which gave him plenty of confidence!

Charging forward full speed!

Ignoring Lisa’s crying!

Ignoring the baby’s wailing!

In the pitch-black corridor, he was like no one else existed!

At this mont!

The noisy radio in the lobby rang again with chaotic, unclear voices—

[...No matter who you are...]

[Uncover the truth... rember...]

[Watch your back...]

“Watch my… back?”

Hearing the radio’s warning, Pure Black didn’t think much, plus his current ntal state gave him no ti to think.

The next second after receiving the instruction, he turned his head to look behind him.

There was nothing behind.

The hallway was still that pitch-black corridor.

Only a small wall lamp emitted a faint glow in the darkness where you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face.

Watch my back?

Pure Black didn’t understand, even felt a bit scared.

He just instinctively looked back without thinking.

If Old Thief had set a trap here for a sudden attack from behind, the effect would be amazing.

Phew—

Thinking that, Pure Black briefly relaxed, grateful for Old Thief’s rcy.

But then.

He heard the radio voice again—

[Sss… watch your back… sss… no matter what happens sss…]

[Don’t look back]

Pure Black: ?

Bang!

Accompanied by a sharp piano screech!

Lisa’s huge ghostly face, missing her right eye, swollen pale complexion, sharp yellow teeth twitching wildly as if having convulsions, suddenly appeared right in front of him!

Face to Face!

Delayed face-ride attack!

A piercing scream instantly filled the stream!

“Ah—! Ah—! Aaaaaaaah—!!!”

……

Everyone disconnected!

At this mont!

The na “Gu Sheng” would be forever engraved in horror ga history!

Although!

The demo version’s ga progress had just passed halfway!

But!

He had already set an unprecedented record—

[First-ti player continuous clear rate: 0%]

That’s right!

Worldwide!

No player could guarantee passing the ga on their first try without being ejected from the motion-sensing pod!

Even!

Those who could play normally and last more than 10 minutes in the ga without being kicked were rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns!

The scariest ga in history!

Truly deserved the title!

But!

This ti, Gu Sheng ca aiming for the “King of Horror Gas” title!

So!

If anyone thought PT was only famous for being scary, they were dead wrong!

Because the shock Silent Hill PT brought to the gaming world went far beyond that!

Don’t look back!

Looking back ans ga failure!

Pure Black’s PT journey ended here.

The next day, Young Master posted a Weibo saying his ntal state was still okay, but his voice was hoarse from intense screaming, so he would take two days off.

But for hardcore players like PEW and professional dia reviewer Xu Xiaolin!

The horror continued!

Moreover!

These hardcore players needed to collect and piece together all the fragnted information scattered throughout the ga!

Cycle 9!

Players must follow the radio’s instructions and press their head against the door.

After about ten seconds, Lisa would cry right behind you, clinging close.

If you endure it!

The door ahead would naturally open.

And in the next cycle!

A more bizarre inner world would unfold!

Cycle 10!

The entire corridor’s lights would turn red!

The chandelier in the lobby would turn into a hanging blood-soaked refrigerator!

The fridge swayed, with large streams of fresh blood flowing out!

Along with the blood flowed the terrified and pitiful screams of the little girl!

Cycle 11!

Amid red light, letters would gradually appear on the wall!

At the corner of the corridor was a “HELLO!”

Beside the lobby’s main door was a sentence: “I can hear them calling to from []!”

Players had to shuttle back and forth between these two phrases.

Each ti they moved back and forth!

The letters of HELLO would shift one position into the blank space of the sentence by the door.

Until finally, only an “O” remained.

That “O” would pop with a bang, creating a peephole on the wall.

Press your eye against it, and you would see the murder that once happened in the bathroom.

The husband shouted words like “unfaithful, filthy, bastard,” dunking Lisa into the bathtub.

Amid Lisa’s crying and screaming, he slit her throat and cut open her abdon, brutally killing her.

At this mont, the sentence by the door beca complete—“I can hear them calling to from HELL!”

“I hear the call from hell.”

Next!

Cycle 12!

Players would enter a blood-red rampage corridor.

At this ti, players felt as if their mind synced with the killer’s, sprinting madly through the endless torturous hallway!

Obscure words from hell appeared on the walls!

Lisa’s difficult breathing after the throat slitting, the little girl’s helpless crying and screaming, and the demon whispers hidden within the cries would haunt players’ ears constantly!

Until!

The bathroom reappeared!

After enduring layers of bizarre extre horror!

The puzzle was solved!

Players walked into the bathroom.

The malford fetus in the sink, like sothing from hell, changed to the radio announcer’s voice, emotionless, speaking to you—
