"Welcome to Apocalypse Amusement Park!"
Lu Hang groggily opened his eyes.
He started cursing his roommate, Li Yuanqi, in his mind.
He must be playing games with the volume on loud again!
And what's this "Apocalypse Amusement Park" nonsense?
Once I get up, I'll immediately show you what the apocalypse truly is!
But as soon as he opened his eyes, the sight before him stunned Lu Hang.
Where is this?!
This is definitely not the company dormitory!
Where exactly am I?
Lu Hang was bewildered.
He looked around.
He was currently in a small, single room.
The entire room was less than ten square meters!
Across from him, an old-fashioned faucet dripped incessantly, like a middle-aged man's leaky pipe.
A corner of the mirror above the sink was shattered.
Its surface was coated with a thick layer of water stains.
Only a blurry reflection of a human figure could be vaguely seen.
Mold crawled up the wall corners, clinging to the peeling paint.
An uncovered bathroom.
A hard bed board.
This room was practically a single-person prison!
It had to be said, compared to this, the old company dormitory was even slightly better!
Of course, not by much.
Lu Hang looked down at himself.
He found that he was still wearing the same clothes as before.
But besides that, there was nothing else.
Including his phone!
This made Lu Hang a little flustered.
No phone was even more terrifying than no internet!
Suddenly, a female voice came from behind him.
Lu Hang jumped in fright, quickly springing up from the wooden plank bed.
He found that there was no female ghost or anything behind him.
Instead, it was a phone, emitting a sound.
"Welcome to Apocalypse Amusement Park!"
"We guarantee this will be the most realistic, thrilling, and exciting apocalypse survival game you've ever played!"
"This is your safe house; you will temporarily be in no danger."
"And the safe house is located in our park's living area, which is usually also free of danger."
Safe house?
Temporarily!
Lu Hang instantly grasped the key point.
Temporarily? What kind of safe house is that!
This sentence translated to: various dangers would soon appear!
Lu Hang quickly picked up the phone, wanting to understand what was going on.
He lit up the screen.
That somewhat mechanical, yet pleasant, female voice sounded again.
"This phone will always remain powered on. No need to worry about battery life."
"Furthermore, it is drop-proof, waterproof, fire-proof, and EMP-proof, capable of handling all extreme situations."
"You can experience most in-game functions through your phone."
"It will be your most trustworthy friend in Apocalypse Amusement Park!"
"We wish you a pleasant game ahead!"
Seeing that the phone didn't need charging, Lu Hang suddenly felt a strange sense of security.
Lu Hang first saw a chat lobby icon.
After clicking it, a chat interface appeared before Lu Hang's eyes.
In the chat lobby, Lu Hang saw people as bewildered as himself.
"Where is this? Does anyone know?"
"Know what?! And look out the window! Is this still our Blue Star?!"
Seeing this message, Lu Hang quickly looked up at the window.
Upon seeing it, he discovered the strangeness of the place!
Looking out the entire window, he could only see a vast expanse of white!
Even when Lu Hang pressed himself against the window, he could still only see dense fog.
The white mist seemed to be on the verge of condensing into liquid.
He opened the window and cautiously stuck his head out.
The sight before him made him dizzy!
The distant view was obscured by thick fog.
But looking down, it was like a bottomless abyss!
And no matter which direction Lu Hang looked.
He could only see countless windows extending.
Until they were covered by the thick fog.
He felt as if he had been placed in an infinitely large pigeon coop.
And every player was a pigeon waiting to be slaughtered.
Just then, the broadcast sounded again.
"Dear players."
"We will now solemnly introduce our Apocalypse Amusement Park to everyone."
"The area where everyone is currently located."
"Is the living area for all players."
"You will get ample rest here after playing."
"Enjoy a peaceful life."
"Of course, occasionally there will be some thrilling and exciting mini-games."
"To add fun to everyone's ordinary lives!"
Rest?
Enjoy life?
Lu Hang touched the wooden bed board, which was even harder than his little brother.
And the prison-style decor around him.
Only masochists could enjoy this, right?
And thrilling games?
I'll game your grandpa!
Lu Hang's internal complaints did not stop the broadcast from continuing.
"Now, let's introduce the most important thing."
"The integral Shopping Mall system, which provides various goods to everyone in the game!"
"Everyone can open the integral Shopping Mall on their phone to browse."
Lu Hang picked up his phone and lit up the screen again.
He easily found the integral Shopping Mall icon on it.
After opening it, Lu Hang felt as if he had opened Taobao.
A large number of product images appeared on the screen.
"Purified Water – 2 integral"
"Pickled Mustard – 2 integral"
"Instant Noodles – 3 integral"
"Biscuits – 3 integral"
"Ham Sausage – 3 integral"
"Bread – 6 integral"
"Spicy Strips – 10 integral"
"Dried Noodles – 12 integral"
"5 kg Rice – 20 integral"
"Potato Chips – 20 integral"
"Beef Jerky – 60 integral"
"..."
Besides food and drinks.
After switching categories.
There were also various daily necessities, and even kitchenware.
"Toothbrush – 5 integral"
"Soap – 10 integral"
"Towel – 15 integral"
"Electric Hot Pot – 200 integral"
"Rice Cooker – 300 integral"
"Induction Cooker – 500 integral"
"..."
It seemed that in this integral Shopping Mall, all basic necessities of life could be bought.
And in the upper right corner of the Shopping Mall.
Lu Hang saw his integral balance:
10000 integral!
The broadcast continued.
"Everyone should have roughly browsed the integral Shopping Mall."
"All players' initial integral are 10000 integral!"
"Subsequently, everyone can earn integral in the game through various means."
"Of course, in the game, there will also be various situations where integral are lost."
"Everyone should try their best to avoid them."
"Finally, once your integral are zero, it means..."
"Game Over!"
Lu Hang felt a chill.
Game Over?
What did that mean?
Return to the original world?
Or die here?
But the broadcast did not explain.
Each player started with 10000 integral.
According to the prices in the integral Shopping Mall.
Surviving for a year or two in this so-called safe house didn't seem to be a problem.
Lu Hang could only look to see what other functions the phone had.
Exiting the integral Shopping Mall.
On the screen, there were also Personal Information, Chat, Tasks...
Indeed, they were all standard game features.
Lu Hang suddenly had a whimsical idea.
He wanted to test if this phone supported multi-touch.
Lu Hang pressed and held Personal Information, and sure enough, the icon began to move with his finger.
He then pressed and held Chat and Tasks separately.
He gathered these three icons together, then released them simultaneously.
Suddenly, a bizarre scene occurred!
After releasing, the three icons returned to their original positions.
But at the spot where they had just been gathered, a brand new icon appeared—
"Recharge"
