Chapter 5
The Dreadful Laser Hallway
Finally, the crowd arrived at a control room in the underground laboratory. After passing through a short hallway, they would reach the Red Queen’s main server room.
To finish the mission, they had to install the signal jammer and turn off the Red Queen.
[If the game ends just by turning off the Red Queen, isn’t that too fast? I didn’t even get to see any zombies!]
[How will the game end so quickly? The game has just started!]
[I have a feeling that something terrifying is going to happen!]
[Host, look! The hallway’s door has opened. Hurry up and follow them!]
With the viewer’s reminder, Angelica immediately followed them and walked into the hallway.
However, the hallway’s door behind her slammed shut the moment she entered. No matter what she did, she couldn’t open the door.
“I don’t know what’s going on! Don’t worry! I’ll find a way to open the door!”
The technician sitting in front of the computer outside spoke anxiously through the communication channel.
A laser appeared at the end of the hallway in the blink of an eye. Moreover, the laser had accelerated its approach to them!
Everyone knew that if the laser hit someone’s body, the person would definitely die!
“Hurry up! There’s something wrong with the hallway!”
The Special Forces captain’s voice sounded in the communication channel.
Angelica immediately pulled herself together and nervously faced the laser getting closer to her.
Angelica quickly lay on the ground, and the laser beam almost brushed over her back.
The laser beam made Angelica feel like it had brushed her hair away.
[Hiss! It’s so exciting! I knew the game wouldn’t be that easy!]
[I believe that the following stages will be even more challenging. Can Angelica make it through?]
[Hehe! I’m just waiting for Angelica to die in the game!]
[I bet Angelica won’t make it through this with 10 dollars!]
Meanwhile, Angelica couldn’t read the comments because the second laser came right to her after the first laser disappeared!
This time, there was more than a laser beam. A horizontal and vertical laser beam divided the space into four equal sections.
Angelica had to stick to the wall with her petite body to avoid the laser beam.
However, there is a muscular guy on the team who is unlucky.
Although he had tried his best to stick to the wall, his muscles were too large. In the end, he was still cut open by the laser and lost his stomach.
The entire hallway was filled with the sweet, metallic smell of blood. Meanwhile, some of the muscular guy’s organs were still squirming.
Angelica retched with disgust since she had never seen such a scene before.
However, a new challenge arrived before the crisis was over.
This time, laser beams filled the lower half of the hallway.
Luckily, there were some handles on the roof of the hallway. Players could make it through by controlling their bodies while gripping the handles.
The moment the laser was about to disappear, it suddenly shifted upward and split one of the members in half.
Once again, another person had died. It put everyone in deep fear.
Angelica was so tired that she panted while she landed on the ground.
Everyone in the live-streaming room held their breath, and nobody was sending comments.
Everyone was staring at the end of the hallway, waiting for the appearance of another laser.
In the end, only one laser beam appeared in front of everyone.
The players who were still alive, Angelica and the captain of the Special Forces, heaved a sigh of relief together.
[Jesus! The creator of the game is still rational. This stage should be considered a minigame for the players to relax.]
[Gosh! The hallway is terrifying! I think I’m going to have a nightmare tonight!]
[I agree. The feeling of watching the Grim Reaper use a sickle to cut you is terrifying!]
[Hiss! Something is weird. Guys, have a look! The number of laser beams is increasing!]
[Damn it, the game’s producer must be a demon!]
[Fuck!]
Meanwhile, Angelica’s eyes were wide open, just like the viewers in the live-streaming room. She unbelievingly looked at the laser as it turned into a large laser net after a transformation!
Each grid was as small as a human palm. How could Angelica and the captain of the Special Forces make it through?
Angelica and the Special Forces captain could only try to get as close as possible to the other end of the hallway while Angelica stuck her back close to the door.
The Special Forces captain urged the people outside to crack the door password as he stood in front of Angelica.
Finally!
The technician outside hit the Enter key.
“Done!”
The technician shouted. However, the laser didn’t immediately disappear in the hallway. Instead, it moved forward for a distance.
The laser’s centimeter-sized movements precisely split the Special Forces captain’s body.
The Special Forces captain had disintegrated into pieces of meat scattered across the ground. The floor was covered in his blood.
This time, Angelica couldn’t hold it anymore and started vomiting non-stop in the game.
Due to the intense emotional swings, even her physical form was slightly trembling in reality.
Finally, the door was opened. However, Angelica was the only survivor. Entering a small hallway cost the Special Forces, who were fully armed, dearly.
They might have been dead if the entire team had gone in simultaneously.
When Angelica returned to the control room, she couldn’t help but tremble while sitting on the ground. Although it was just a game, she couldn’t help but be in deep fear due to its realism.
Meanwhile, the situation lightened up the mood of the viewers in the live-streaming room.
[Jesus! This game is fantastic! I’m willing to name this hallway the Dreadful Hallway!]
[It’s hard to imagine the game producer’s state of mind during the game’s development!]
[Gosh! It’s bizarre and scary, but it’s exciting! It’s way more exciting than other horror games!]
[When will the host recover? I’m worried that Angelica will stop playing due to fear!]
[Host, hurry up and move forward. You’ve rested long enough!]
Angelica, who had a pale face, spoke after being prodded by the viewers.
“Are you guys trying to kill me? I won’t go back into that hallway!”
The viewers immediately laughed at Angelica’s reaction. An upbeat mood pervaded the live-streaming room.
[Haha! What a coward!]
[Since it can scare Angelica to death, it’s indeed a horror game!]
Even so, Angelica had to continue the live streaming to support her living, despite her words to the contrary.
At last, Angelica mustered her courage and followed the rest of the team members into the main server room. Later, she installed the signal jammer and prepared to turn off the Red Queen.
