The game becomes reality: Black Myth invades the real world.

Chen Fu opened his eyes with a yawn in the early morning. He had to work 8 a.m. today, and even though he was already a level one player, he didn't have much energy.

Beside the pillow, her jet-black hair draped over Chen Fu's nose, tickling him slightly. Below, her delicate collarbone was faintly visible, and a shy voice rang out: "Brother Fu."

Chen Fu raised his hand and pressed Wei Niangniang down onto the bed: "If you dare to sneak into bed again, I'll make sure the Wei family line ends."

Instead of learning good things, they like to investigate other things all day long. What kind of habit is that?

Last night, after he discovered that the person who sent the message was Lady Wei, he gave her a lecture.

Wei Lai fell asleep without getting any answers from Chen Fu, and was still thinking of continuing during the day, but she didn't expect to run into a major attack.

Childlessness? If that really happens, Mengmeng will be living a life of widowhood.

He didn't want his love to end here, so he suppressed his thoughts and stopped asking about the lakeside.

The other two geniuses were searching through socks, but all they could hold up were socks that they couldn't be worn, so they had to go to class barefoot.

Another person slowly got out of bed, taking ten minutes just to get dressed, muttering "no rush, no rush" in the Gyeonggi dialect, completely unaware that it was already 7:50.

A new day begins in dormitory 444 amidst this noisy and bustling environment.

In the classroom, a professor wearing reading glasses was reading the textbook meticulously, while a group of students below were either fast asleep or lost in their own world.

Chen Fu glanced around to make sure no one was paying attention to him, then secretly opened the game.

He died once yesterday, and the physical punishment ended at 1 a.m. Now is the perfect time to go to war.

Chen Fu wasn't in a hurry to finish the stamina potion; he wanted to see if he could collect weapon materials first.

"You've started wandering around Bloodblade Town and discovered a half-open door. Would you like to go inside and explore?"

When a text similar to the one before appeared before Chen Fu, he thought to himself, "It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"

He thought for a moment, and since he was beheaded for choosing to leave last time, why can't I go in this time?

You pushed open the door and entered the courtyard, only to find it completely empty, without a single thing in sight. Should you go inside the dilapidated house ahead to investigate?

If there's nothing there, why should I go in?

Chen Fu was somewhat unsure. If he went in, he might come up empty-handed. If he didn't go in, what if they turned around and killed him?

After thinking for a moment, he decided to go in.

As always, we can't just give up halfway through.

Besides, the game text hints that every household in Bloodblade Town has an old iron pot, so even if the house is dilapidated, it should still exist; otherwise, it would be contradicting itself.

Chen Fu felt that the game wouldn't do something so shameless.

"You went inside and found several pieces of old iron pots in the corner."

"Old iron pots, having been licked by countless blades and flames, with oil and smoke already penetrating their steel bodies, are one of the materials used to forge frying pans for use in homes."

"You have obtained Old Iron Pot (weapon material)"

Chen Fu nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that the game's lower limit wasn't as low as he had imagined.

He looked at the piece of metal that appeared in the small square, and clicked to leave the dilapidated house with satisfaction.

"Chosen One, congratulations! You have finally gained something new in this mortal world, and your strength is about to see a visible improvement."

Upon seeing this sentence, Chen Fu immediately knew something was wrong.

He died after the game text said that last time. The game's limits are truly unpredictable; it just praised him and then came to mess with him.

As expected, the text that continued to be generated confirmed Chen Fu's guess.

You stepped out of the dilapidated house and bumped into a thin man.

He looked at you and said, "What kind of look is that? Your house is in such a dilapidated state, and you're still stealing?"

Before you could explain, you saw him draw a knife from his waist.

"Your head has been chopped off."

"You are dead."

"The mountains are silent, activate."

"The gaunt man was greatly surprised to see that you had come back to life, and casually slashed a second time."

"Your head has flown away again."

"Ha, are you using my head as a football? It just flies away like that, I knew it wouldn't be anything good..." Chen Fu couldn't help but complain in his heart.

You people from Bloodblade Town are keen on robbery outside, but like beheadings in town, right?

Once I've made the weapon, I'm going to slaughter everyone in this town!

He thought bitterly as he appeared once again at the local earth god temple at the town's entrance.

The game text wasn't finished; it kept generating, immediately drawing Chen Fu's attention.

"You met the descendant of Qiaosheng Gong at the town entrance; he's looking for you."

"Forging is complete."

"You have obtained the Spiritual Essence Cicada."

"Spiritual Treasure Cicada (Stamina Bottle), a mysterious creation from the descendants of the Master of Skillful Arts. Only those destined for greatness can use it. Each person destined for greatness can only possess one stamina bottle. Effect: Restores stamina for four hours in the initial stage, and automatically replenishes it at midnight every day."

Looking at the item description, Chen Fu learned that the Spiritual Essence Cicada, as the name suggests, can restore stamina after dying in the game and reduce penalty time.

He thought it was alright; the stamina penalty was severe for players. Sixteen hours was too long, making the wait agonizing. Eight hours was the same; you could easily miss it if you weren't paying attention, unless you learned from some hardcore gamers and set an alarm to play.

Now that it can be shortened, it's equivalent to indirectly increasing the game time, allowing you to devote more energy to it.

And since you can recover four hours of stamina in the initial stage, can you continue to increase your strength?

"The successor of the Master of Skillful Sage said that the stamina bottle you have now is only a preliminary product and has a lot of room for development. If you have the relevant materials later, you can come over and he will upgrade your stamina bottle to increase its effects and recovery time, etc."

It seems to work similarly to upgrading equipment; the more times you upgrade, the stronger the effect.

Chen Fu realized the importance of the energy bottle.

This item is similar to the Coroner's Walker's ability. As long as you continue to strengthen it, the game time will increase, and the probability of obtaining experience points and equipment will also increase, just like a snowball effect.

Now, Chen Fu is familiar with the basic gameplay.

Death penalties, dungeons, local temples, stamina potions, equipment, and quests are all basic game features that every player will encounter and obtain.

He was the only one who witnessed all of this before the other players.

But that's far from enough. After Zhou Jianbang reveals the contents of the memory card, he still wants to learn more about things he didn't know before.

After obtaining the stamina bottle, Chen Fu took the item out of the small square.

The game text only mentions the four characters "Lingyun Baochan" (灵蕴宝蝉), but in reality, it appears as a bright green jade cicada, with a surprisingly good design.

He touched the back of the jade cicada and could hear its clear chirping, which was not harsh but rather very pleasant to hear.

Chen Fu clearly felt better; the fatigue from staying up late and waking up early was gone, and then he saw that the game text had been updated.

"Spiritual Essence Cicada, 3 uses today."

A big question mark appeared in his mind: How could he have used up all his energy just by trying it casually?

But it doesn't matter, I just got an eight-hour stamina penalty, which is just the right time to use it.

Chen Fu touched it three more times, and the clear chirping of cicadas rang out one after another.

He felt much better, and the physical punishment was suddenly reduced to four hours.

However, some people frowned.

The professor, standing on the stage lecturing with his reading glasses perched on his nose, said angrily, "Some students don't want to study, and they can do whatever they want, but please don't disrupt the class."

If this happened in high school, the parents would definitely be called in, but this is a university where management is more relaxed, and the professor can only give a verbal warning.

Chen Fu chuckled, retrieved the Spiritual Essence Cicada, and exited the game.

Although classroom management was lax, he didn't want to lose credits because of it, otherwise he would have to find a way to make up for it later.

While he couldn't play games, Chen Fu began to think about fulfilling the woman's last wish from last night after class.

According to the woman, her daughter lives near Jiangda University, not too far away, but because she is blind, she is completely unable to take care of herself.

This is the main reason why the woman, even after she died, couldn't let go of her daughter.

For a girl who has lost her sight, surviving in society is much more difficult than for a normal person.

At noon, Chen Fu had lunch with his three amazing roommates in the cafeteria and then left the school.

Today is Friday, I have no classes this afternoon, and Saturday and Sunday are holidays, so it's a two-and-a-half-day weekend, which gives me plenty of time to do other things.

He arrived at the urban village next to Jiangnan University according to the address. There were rows of small resettlement houses, each with three floors. Many people partitioned the rooms and rented them out to college students who had just graduated or were living elsewhere.

The urban village had a strong sense of local life, with stalls selling all kinds of food and small commodities on both sides. Chen Fu found the girl's place based on the house number, but no one answered the door after knocking for a long time. He also tried calling, but no one answered.

Even if someone is blind, it shouldn't be like this, right? Chen Fu scratched his head, wondering what to do.

He finally called Zhou Jianbang and asked him to look for the girl.

Zhou Jianbang was prepared for this, and immediately used his authority to connect to all the surveillance equipment near Jiangda University. Finally, he found someone who looked like the girl on a deserted street.

He relayed the message to Chen Fu, his tone somewhat strange: "Go and check it out first. I'm not sure if that's the girl you're looking for."

Chen Fu was a little confused. How come he wasn't sure about it yet?

But he had never seen the girl before and didn't know what she looked like, so he could only go there first.

Ten minutes later, Chen Fu arrived at the street and couldn't help but twitch as he watched the frogman doing a live-streamed shuttle run under the scorching sun.

This can't be that girl, right? Who would torture themselves like this, running in this sweltering heat wearing a frog suit? Even if you want to make money, you don't need to do this. Aren't you afraid of getting heatstroke?

There are many people like this on Douyin who make a living through live streaming, and the frog man in front of us is one such example.

To confirm his identity, Chen Fu approached and asked the frogman after he stopped, "Are you Bai Ruhua?"

The frogman, panting, stared at the boy in front of him, and after catching his breath, replied, "Who are you?"

Her voice was childlike, and her tone was full of doubt.

Since the live stream was still ongoing, the frogman didn't respond much to the boy's willingness to state his name directly.

But it doesn't matter, she's live streaming on Douyin and has been verified with her real name, so many netizens know her name.

"I am Ms. Bai's friend, and I have come to visit her daughter on her behalf. Are you the one?"

Last night, the woman mentioned her name, so Chen Fu first gave a brief explanation before finally revealing his purpose.

He didn't want to say too much until he was sure the other person was the one he was looking for.

Deep down, Chen Fu felt that it shouldn't be.

No blind person can run back and forth like that. Has modern medicine advanced to that extent?

"My mother has been dead for three months! How could she have a friend as young as you?!"

Bai Ruhua said with a puzzled expression, then, as if realizing something, continued:

"I will pay you back the money I owe you as soon as possible, please don't come back!"

"What is all this?" Chen Fu was at a loss for words.

The phone, placed on a tripod, was constantly being posted on social media by netizens.

They were all loyal viewers of Bai Ruhua, watching the girl work hard to earn money through live streaming from the very beginning. She would run back and forth in the sweltering summer wearing a frog costume, and when it got too hot, she would deliver food. They were deeply moved by this girl who was trying so hard to live.

Now that they've discovered someone has gone there, and considering what Bai Ruhua said, the connection immediately becomes clear.

Could this be one of those thugs who only take bribes? Is our cute little white frog going to get bullied?

This is intolerable, absolutely intolerable.

Many viewers began to criticize Chen Fu's behavior with righteous indignation, some even threatening to report it to the police department, and some had already taken action.

Chen Fu sensed there was a misunderstanding, but something felt off.

Shouldn't the girl be blind? How come she can see now?

The woman by the lake couldn't possibly be mistaken; she was still thinking about her daughter even after she died, so how could she make a mistake in something like this?

But the girl said something else. What's going on?

Before Chen Fu could figure it out, he saw the frogman pick up his tripod and run into the alley next door, looking as if he had been bullied.

"I'm not a bad person..." Chen Fu immediately chased after him and successfully cornered the frogman deep in the alley.

"Don't come any closer! I'm still live-streaming, and netizens have already reported it to the police!"

Bai Ruhua's tone was filled with anxiety, fearing that this person had ulterior motives towards her.

"I really am your mother's friend, and I'm here on her behalf to see you."

Chen Fu felt like he was cursing, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

It's more important to clear up the misunderstanding right now.

He glanced at his phone screen and noticed it had gone dark, guessing that the girl had probably turned off the live stream while running away.

"You're still lying to me!"

Bai Ruhua also noticed the boy's gaze.

She did indeed turn off the live stream just now; it's not convenient for netizens to see this, otherwise who knows what kind of rumors would spread about it.

But she wasn't without ways to cope.

Leading a guy into a dead end is meant to lower his guard.

She then took off her headgear, revealing her sweat-drenched face.

Her hair clung to her cheeks, her skin was slightly dark, her almond-shaped eyes were wide open, and her delicate nose and slightly parted lips gave her a pitiful and beautiful look, like a girl from a modest family.

She's quite good-looking, and with that baby voice, she's sure to be popular... Chen Fu had already made a rough judgment.

The girl in front of him should not be the person he is looking for. Her almond-shaped eyes are big and bright, and they do not have the lifelessness that is unique to blind people.

He raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, trying to soothe the girl's emotions. He took a step back, repeatedly saying, "I'm sorry, I mistook you for someone else."

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Fu suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, as if he had been drinking, feeling lightheaded and the world spinning around him.

He didn't understand what was going on, and looking into the girl's slightly glowing eyes, he felt even more confused.

Bai Ruhua was initially tense, but she breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the boy in front of her had been affected.

Hidden inside her frog costume, she wore a thin bracelet on her wrist with a small gold pendant in the middle. The front of the pendant depicted an adorable child, while the back read "Golden Jade Child."

"The Golden Jade Boy is born at the hour of Mao (5-7 AM) and the hour of Shen (3-5 PM). He is ignorant of worldly affairs and is born with golden lines on his palms. He can distinguish the spirits of objects and know the temperature. The Golden Jade Boy is born with the ability to draw precious energy back to its place and is the best spiritual medium in the mortal world."

"Professional Characteristics:..."
