At eight o'clock in the morning, Lin Yu was overcome with frustration by the system's voice in his head.

This system has been around since he traveled to this parallel world.

When he first saw that he had activated the Hell Money System, Lin Yu, reborn, was somewhat excited.

He thought he would live a life of extravagance and debauchery in this parallel world!

But...this awful system actually gave him Hell Money!

All he withdrew were eerie copper coins and banknotes issued by the Tiandi Bank!

They couldn't even be circulated in the human world!

Desperately, Lin Yu had no choice but to pretend this system didn't exist.

He had originally planned to reach the pinnacle of his life by investing in virtual currency, but...

This damned parallel world doesn't even have virtual currency!

Lin Yu had to change his strategy and consider entering the literary world by recreating classic novels and music from his past life.

But after some research, he discovered that the celebrities and writers he remembered still existed in this world!

The shortcuts to wealth for the reborn were basically blocked!

Lin Yu studied diligently and was admitted to a good university.

He also saved some money by working part-time.

Today was the first day of winter vacation.

Lin Yu had originally planned to find a part-time job to earn some extra money.

However, after being woken up promptly by the system this morning,

after closing the system panel, a new "prompt" suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

"Congratulations! You've qualified for the fifth closed beta test of the horror game!"

"Countdown to dungeon opening: 15:59:59"

Two lines of blood-red text appeared before Lin Yu's eyes!

Unlike the natural feeling of the system, which seemed to originate from his soul,

Lin Yu intuitively sensed that these two lines of blood-red text did not belong to the system.

Because they felt shoddy or inferior compared to the system.

"What the hell is this?"

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, thinking he was hallucinating.

Then he recalled some rumors he had read online...

In the past two years, mysterious legends about various places have become increasingly frequent!

The mysterious death of a wealthy individual, the sudden disappearance of an entire neighborhood, a murderer who enjoys skinning people...

The official stance has always been somewhat ambiguous.

Lin Yu had seen several posts about the "Horror Game"!

The chosen ones would enter a world filled with evil spirits to survive, where they would gain the opportunity to control ghosts and ghostly creatures. Mysterious events across the country were caused by the return of "players" of the Horror Game.

Some even said that the newly established "Nineth Investigation Center" was also designed to address the Horror Game!

And without exception, these posts disappeared quickly!

Lin Yu, familiar with the pattern, knew that the faster a post disappeared, the more likely it was to be the truth!

Combining the two lines of blood-red text before him, Lin Yu confirmed this.

The biggest difference between this parallel world, Blue Planet, and his previous world wasn't the lack of virtual currency, but this "Horror Game"!

The phrase "fifth batch" clearly confirmed this—this Horror Game had been around for quite some time! Sixteen hours later, at midnight, he would enter the horror game! "What a rip-off!" Lin Yu felt a momentary sense of helplessness. This horror game, whether rumored or simply heard of, was a place where one's life was a near certainty, or even a hopeless situation! Even though Lin Yu vaguely realized that the ghost money his "rich system" was distributing might be specifically for this game, he wasn't sure if it would allow him to rest easy in the game. After all, while "money makes the world go round," it was only a common saying. What if the ghosts inside didn't recognize money and only ate humans? Furthermore, if a man was innocent, he would be guilty of possessing a treasure. What if using ghost money to bribe a fierce ghost only to make the ghost greedy and kill him for the money? These were things he didn't know.

"Although the 'ghost money' issued by the system is likely useful, it's a good thing..."

"But, after all, I can't rely too much on the system!"

I still need to research the "Thriller Game" first," Lin Yu thought, quickly searching the internet for information.

And just as Lin Yu expected,

Although the authorities have been blocking the news, it's impossible for them to completely delete all the information!

This might also be to give those truly chosen by the "Thriller Game" a new lease of life!

Quickly, Lin Yu sorted out several key pieces of information from the various posts he had read!

First, the ghosts in the Thriller Game dungeons can't kill people at will! Ghosts and humans alike must follow the rules! Only those who violate the rules or meet the ghost's killing conditions will be killed by the ghost!

Second, the basic rules of the dungeon are generally clearly stated at the beginning! However, there are also some hidden rules!

Third, the difficulty of the dungeon, the strength of the ghosts within it, and the number of basic rules are related to each other. The more rules a dungeon has, the harder it is to survive! Because gathering information was quite challenging, it took Lin Yu almost an entire day!

After a brief rest,

the thrilling dungeon began!
