Chapter 001: The Terror Begins
The sound of the ghostly wail also drew the displeasure of the audience in front, all of whom turned around to glare at the prince. Looking at the seats that had just been empty, they were now filled with a crowded throng, which left Zhang Fengyu and the others feeling perplexed.
How dark is this cinema, even a horror movie shouldn't be this eerie
Upon entering, Wang Li immediately shouted, the surroundings were incredibly dark, and he could barely see the faint passage ahead, which made Wang Li feel somewhat weak in the knees again
Is it to walk or to see
Ah!
The ghostly howl coming from behind startled Wang Li, causing him to slip and fall to the ground. The others were equally frightened, their faces turning pale, but this terror was largely due to Wang Li's scream.
Strange? Scary?
The lights dimmed a little more in that moment, and the movie had already begun
Wang Li was so frightened after reading it that his eyebrows shot up. He was already timid by nature, and at this moment, he was having thoughts of retreat. He considered that if just this one flyer had scared him so much, one could only imagine how terrifying the movie would be.
Let us go! The mission has commenced!
Zhao Jinglan and Zhang Fengyu paid no attention to whether Wang Li was scared or not; each of them firmly grasped one of Wang Li's arms and, disregarding his protests, dragged him towards the cinema ahead. Behind them, Wang Zi, Li Jian, and Hong Bo closely followed in their wake
In a desperate struggle, he finally managed to turn his head slightly, but what met his gaze was an incredibly horrifying visage. That face was filled with blood-red cracks, and the flesh on it resembled thick, sticky paste, continuously dripping with repulsive pus and blood.
Zhang Fengyu, after hearing this, also extended his hand in front of the 7 people, and at that moment, the hands of the other 7 people were also placed one after another. The 8 hands were tightly clasped together, and finally erupted in a resolute roar: "Survive!"
Compared to the restless movements of Li Jian and the others, Zhang Fengyu felt an overwhelming sense of oppression in his heart. For some reason, he found himself devoid of any interest in continuing to watch. The moment he sat in that chair, an indescribable heaviness enveloped him, pressing down so hard that he nearly cried out. He truly could not understand, thinking to himself that it was merely a movie, so why did he feel such fear?
After being disturbed by Wang Li several times, even the boldest Zhang Fengyu began to feel apprehensive. For some reason, the further he walked, the more alarmed he became; this sense of alarm was difficult to articulate, as if it were a primal instinct of humans sensing danger. As for the prince and others, they were not much different from Zhang Fengyu, all feeling somewhat guilty.
The choice was once again placed before them; compared to their previous hesitation, this time it was much more decisive.
At this point, he turned back and looked with confusion, then said, "I don't know if it's just my illusion, but I seem to hear a ticking sound from behind, and faintly, it seems there are footsteps..."
Wuwu ... ...
With Zhang Fengyu taking the lead, Prince Li Jian and others also responded one after another. Shortly after, they found a few adjacent empty seats and sat down. Just at that moment, the silver-white wide screen suddenly lit up, and the movie had already begun to play
Look at your cowardly appearance, come on, go in and provoke a little!
Damn it! I thought these few people had gone to watch a movie, I was so happy, thinking there would be a few more commissions!
At this moment, Zhang Fengyu and the other five had arrived at the entrance of the cinema. Without further thought, they strode inside.
Which cinema did they actually go to
Left alone in this dark environment, Wang Li was nearly scared to the point of wetting his pants. He hurriedly wanted to shout for them to stop, but before the sound could escape, a foul stench invaded his nostrils, and immediately after, his mouth was covered by a pair of extremely cold hands
This promotional flyer is quite frightening!
Wang Li screamed in terror, but could only emit faint whimpering sounds. Likewise, no matter how much he struggled, that hand remained utterly unmoved, firmly covering his mouth.
But now that they have come, if they were to turn back at this moment, all the paths they have taken would have been in vain. However, what they do not know is that from the moment they accepted that flyer, they have already fallen into a vortex of death, and a desperate curse has already befallen them
After Zhang Fengyu finished speaking, the other 7 individuals nearby also nodded in agreement, saying, "Understood!"
However, after running just a few steps, they saw the plump figure of Wang Li, who was now running towards them with a look of terror on his face. Upon seeing that Wang Li was unharmed, Zhang Fengyu and the others all breathed a sigh of relief, and as Wang Li approached, they unceremoniously kicked him.
Just as Zhang Fengyu was about to speak of leaving, he heard the prince beside him exclaim, "Ghost!"
Until Zhang Fengyu and a few others left, the boy distributing the flyers only then realized what had happened, and he looked at the flyer he was holding with great confusion. The flyer clearly depicted only a roller coaster and a few foreigners, which was hardly anything strange; the name was merely from the Death Series, which had nothing to do with fear.
But at that moment, no one noticed that behind them, in the incredibly dark passage, there was a decaying corpse, dripping fresh blood from its entire body, slowly trailing behind them. Due to Zhang Fengyu and the others walking too quickly, the corpse let out a furious cry.
At that moment, a young boy distributing movie flyers also spotted his prey. With a sincere smile on his face, he approached Zhang Fengyu and his group of six. Upon seeing the boy coming over with a handful of flyers, the group instinctively thought about leaving, not only because they were unwilling to spend the several dozen yuan on movie tickets, but also because the idea of a few grown men going to watch a movie together was quite difficult for them to accept. However, Zhang Fengyu still asked the approaching boy, "If it's not a horror movie, you don't need to come over; we, a few grown men, have no interest in romantic films!"
Show me!
Wang Li, are you trying to scare us to death! You can just be afraid here by yourself, what a fool!
A few people could no longer tolerate Wang Li. After leaving this remark in unison, they no longer paid attention to him and continued to walk ahead. By the time Wang Li recovered from his panic, only a vague silhouette of the few people remained in front of him, clearly indicating that they had already gone far away.
Rewinding time back to May 1st, one year ago, Zhang Fengyu, who was still in university, developed a fascination for extremely thrilling horror films due to the extreme boredom of university life. He watched nearly all horror movies, such as "The Grudge" and "Final Destination"; however, he gradually began to feel that these films were not scary at all, but rather repetitive and formulaic.
Moments later, calmness returned here once again, and Wang Li was still sitting on the ground, followed by a terrified scream.
The eerie and chilling promotional flyer immediately piqued Zhang Fengyu's interest, dispelling the previous look of disdain on his face. With a hint of excitement, he said to the others: "This movie looks great! Take a look!"
And today is May 1st, Zhang Fengyu, along with the five members of the dormitory, began to wander aimlessly on the streets, with thoughts of flirting and indulging in fleeting pleasures. For these seasoned flirts, the young girls in the cinema who, due to heartbreak, went to watch movies alone and cried, presented the best opportunity for them to take advantage of. The group naturally found themselves on the benches outside the cinema, like a pack of hungry wolves, waiting for their prey to appear.

The intangible fear descended once again, and everyone felt a chill run down their spines. In such a large screening room, not a single person could be seen. Even those with a strong constitution could sense that something was amiss in this situation
This pitch-black passage seemed to have no end, and the group walked for more than 20 minutes before they finally saw a large silver-white screen ahead, along with rows of blood-red seats not far from them
After Zhang Fengyu's introduction, the others, still somewhat skeptical, each drew a card. Upon seeing it, they were equally horrified, especially by the few blood-soaked characters written in blood on it, which sent a chill down their spines.
Upon hearing Wang Li's call, Zhang Fengyu and the others realized that Wang Li had not kept up with them. After exchanging glances, they turned around and ran back, clearly fearing that Wang Li might truly be in danger
The prince and Li Jian looked around, and to their surprise, they found beautiful women sitting beside them. The two immediately displayed lewd expressions, whispering to each other: "Haha! This is truly worth it; just wait and see my performance soon!"
The few individuals behind Zhang Fengyu also felt that his words were quite on point. If it were a horror movie, they might consider watching it. Although they were not as passionate about it as Zhang Fengyu, it would not hurt to pass the time watching, and who knows, they might even encounter a girl who, out of fear, would seek comfort in their embrace.
The young man cursed fiercely in the direction of several people before continuing to search for his next target
Before the young man could finish his words, Zhang Fengyu abruptly snatched a movie promotional flyer from his hand. Looking down, the first impression the flyer gave Zhang Fengyu was one that sent chills down his spine. The flyer appeared very strange, featuring only a vague black silhouette and the name of the movie. After reading it, Zhang Fengyu silently recited in his mind: "Terror Wanted!"
Is it an illusion
At that moment, Wang Li's eyes became completely hollow, and the decaying corpse that had seized him leaned in at that time, biting down on Wang Li's head. In the following few breaths, the air was filled with the sound of crunching and chewing.
Ahーー ! ''
Upon hearing this, the young man immediately displayed excitement on his face, eagerly nodding and saying: "Not to mention, it is indeed a newly released horror film, and the name of the movie is ... ... "
The train to the home of the Kaguya is about to depart, please have the executors who have not yet boarded immediately board the train
Before the prince could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Fengyu. He shrugged nonchalantly and reassured the others, "Don't scare yourselves. This is probably a scene deliberately created by the cinema to enhance the horror gimmick of this film"
The map will be placed in a drawer at the home of Jiayizi. Although each of us has three chances to revive, we cannot avoid being ambushed by other teams during this process, so we must be extremely cautious this time!" The young man speaking is named Zhang Fengyu, the captain of this team. Despite being only in his early twenties, there is a sense of hardship and experience reflected in his demeanor.
Although they were somewhat puzzled, upon seeing these audience members, the slight fear that had been lingering in their hearts dissipated. At this moment, Zhang Fengyu patted Li Jian, who was closest to him, and said: "Let's go! We should quickly find a place to sit down, it seems the movie is about to start."
After listening, several people also felt that Zhang Fengyu's explanation was quite reasonable, thus alleviating much of their anxiety, and even their pace of progress increased significantly.
This time, Wang Li's words were not ridiculed by Zhang Fengyu and a few others. The prince following behind also felt the same way, crossing his arms and agreeing, saying: "Indeed, even with the air conditioning on in summer, it shouldn't be this cold"
At the moment they fully entered the cinema, the cinema suddenly transformed into a gigantic skeleton, covered in fangs and continuously dripping blood. The so-called entrance was glaringly situated within its mouth, yet this incredibly eerie scene went unnoticed by the crowds passing by, as if nothing was amiss here
Awwww!
Could you please stop scaring us? Otherwise, we will eventually be scared to death by you
The young man then looked in the direction where Zhang Fengyu and the others had left. To his disappointment, he discovered that they had not gone to the cinema at all, which was still thirty to forty meters away; instead, they had merely gone to one side of the street.
