Chapter 228 Gu Gu Battles the Supernatural Game
[Special Dungeon: High School Ghost Stories - The Hidden Game]

[Number of copies: 8 person]

[Instance Mission: Play as a student and survive in the instance for four days]

This dungeon quest makes absolutely no mention of the "Hidden Game".

The fat man's voice came from the side: "At least the first time we did a mission we were teachers, but now we're students being slaves... Come to think of it, with our looks, can we even be students?"

Gu Mian replied, "Of course you can't, but I can."

After all, Gu Mian had only recently graduated, so pretending to be a college student was more than enough for her, but pretending to be a high school student probably wouldn't work...

However, the term "high school" usually refers to junior high or high school, right?

Gu Mian was still thinking when a bright light appeared before her.

The fat boy's voice had disappeared at some point, replaced by a noisy commotion. Gu Mian was very familiar with this sound; it filled the breaks between classes during her middle school years.

He looked around and sure enough, he was now sitting in a classroom, in the second-to-last row, right next to the window. It seemed like this was the seat where the main characters in anime always sat.

Bright sunlight streamed in through the large window on the left, making one feel slightly dizzy, and the scattered books on the table were made snow-white by the sunlight.

The temperature was quite high, and the table was already hot from the sun.

It seems like summer now.

In the classroom, some students were studying, some were resting on their desks, and some were playing around. Everyone was wearing the same school uniform: the girls wore shirts and skirts, and the boys wore shirts and trousers.

On such a hot day, legs should be exposed, but the principal probably felt that no students wanted to see the boys' leg hair, and perhaps also felt that showing a lot of leg hair would be detrimental to the school's morals, so he specially made the boys wear warm and safe long pants.

Gu Mian glanced down at her clothes, which had also changed into a shirt and trousers, but unfortunately, she couldn't show off her beautiful legs anymore.

Although the clothes on his body had changed, the shirt's attributes were still visible, and the name displayed on the attributes was still "[Blood-stained Clothes Haunted by Resentment]".

The white coats were probably changed to suit the dungeon format...

Gu Mian was still thinking when a voice came from in front of her desk: "Hey, Gu Xiao, Gu Xiao, are you listening to me?"

This is clearly referring to himself; he has changed his name, and in this instance, his name is Gu Xiao.

Gu Mian looked up and saw a strange boy smiling at her, but the smile was somewhat complicated. He seemed to be holding a cell phone in his hand, so he probably wasn't a player.

Judging from the students' ages and the situation in the classroom, this was most likely a high school, although he remembered that cell phones were not allowed in his high school.

The boy shoved his phone into Gu Mian's hand with a smile as he spoke: "I've downloaded this game for you. You can name your character first... But don't secretly look at it during class, or the teacher will confiscate your phone!"

It seems that this high school does not allow students to bring cell phones.

Upon hearing the word "game," Gu Mian subconsciously thought of the four characters "Hidden Game" in the name of this instance.

It's almost certain that the game the boy mentioned that he just downloaded is the game with the dungeon name "Hidden God Game".

The game "Disappearance Game" is, as the name suggests, a game where you might disappear if you play it.

He stroked his chin and said softly, "I was originally thinking of not downloading this game to try it out, but it was already downloaded as soon as I entered this place."

They didn't even have the slightest chance to resist.

As Gu Mian thought about it, she smiled at the person in front of her and took the phone from the boy's hand: "Don't worry, I won't secretly play with it during class."

Gu Mian had played quite a few role-playing games, so he was able to quickly immerse himself in the character, although he still didn't quite understand what was going on...

He glanced at his phone as he thought about it.

This phone is similar to modern smartphones, but it was extremely hot to the touch, probably because it had been exposed to sunlight for too long. The not-so-large screen was filled with vibrant colors; it was playing a game.

A pixel game with mediocre graphics.

Like the Mario games Gu Mian played when she was very young, the characters in the game were made very crudely, with their heads being squares formed by a few thick black lines, and curves replaced by dots.

The game scene is currently set in a classroom, where a small figure dressed in a simple school uniform is standing quietly behind the second-to-last row of seats by the window, seemingly waiting for Gu Mian to name it.

This scene...

Gu Mian looked at the image on her phone screen, then looked up at her surroundings.

This uniform...

Gu Mian looked at her school uniform.

This location...

The second-to-last row, by the window.

The same.

The game's scenery and clothing are exactly the same as those in the real world.

Even the position of the little character in the game is the same as where Gu Mian is now, except one is sitting and the other is standing.

The only difference is that there is only one little person in the game screen at this time, the little person in Gu Mian's position, and the other people in the classroom do not appear in this game.

There is a line of text at the very bottom of the screen.

Please enter your nickname_____

The boy in front of her said, "This is your character. Give him a name."

Although she still didn't quite understand what was going on, Gu Mian still held up her finger and gave the little character in the game a cute name: [Gu Gu].

That's such a cute name...

The boy in front of him had obviously seen Gu Mianqi's name as well. He frowned and said, "By the way, you just downloaded this game and don't know how to play it yet, right? This little character can't be moved by clicking the screen; you have to move it yourself for it to move in the game... But I've heard some people say that this little character can move on its own?"

No wonder the game graphics are the same as the real-life graphics.

The boy paused for a moment when he said this.

Gu Mian looked up at him thoughtfully.

The boy paused for a moment before speaking: "Gu Xiao, I know you're brave, but you'd better not play this game too much. If you find anything wrong, uninstall it immediately... You know, the seniors who went missing last month still haven't been found."

Gu Mian certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to ask silly questions like "What senior?" or "Who's missing?"

He could only force a smile and say, "I'll try out the game's features first."

As he spoke, he stood up and took a few steps forward, holding his phone screen.

Sure enough, the little character in the game started moving along with him.

Gu Mian glanced back at the boy in the front row who looked somewhat worried, then turned around and strode towards the door.

He needs to take a look at himself first!
