Chapter 1

A solemn memorial service.

A young man in his twenties lay in the middle of the wreaths, looking very peaceful, as if he was sleeping quietly.

A continuous sobbing could be heard around the young man. A couple of elderly people over fifty supported each other, looking at their son's remains, their faces already in tears.

The young man's name was Wang Ze. He saved a woman who was robbed, but was unexpectedly stabbed dozens of times by the desperate criminals, and died bravely.

Today is his farewell ceremony.

His relatives and friends gathered together to mourn the young man who unfortunately passed away.

In the corner of the funeral home, a young man in black clothes and black pants lowered his head, his shoulders trembling, and his throat made a strange sound, as if he was crying.

He was Wang Ze's best friend. On this important day, he didn't even go to the graduation ceremony, just to see his good brother for the last time.

The young man kept his head down, covering his face with one hand, as if he was very sad.

Indeed, this kind of sadness is obviously not easy to get rid of.

In fact, it was not easy for him.

He used a lot of effort to prevent himself from laughing out loud.

In Bai Yan's lowered face, there was a brilliant smile. If his excitement could be fully reflected in his smile, his mouth would definitely be stretched to his ears.

He was really too happy.

Fearing that he would be beaten to death by Wang Ze's relatives and friends if he laughed out loud, Bai Yan stood in an inconspicuous corner and kept a low profile.

After a long time, the farewell ceremony finally ended, and Bai Yan raised his head.

At this time, he suppressed his excitement, showing a sad expression like others, and squeezed out a tear from the corner of his eye.

But looking closely, there was no trace of sadness in his eyes, but a hint of joy.

After Wang Ze's body was cremated, his unfamiliar relatives and friends left in twos and threes.

And Bai Yan also left the funeral home with the people who came to attend the funeral.

The old man sent the young man away. This kind of grief cannot be healed even by time. At this moment, any words of comfort are pale. All people can do is to leave and leave space for the weeping old couple.

…

Wang Ze died in the hot summer.

Leaving the sultry funeral home, Bai Yan opened the dark parasol, but was still stimulated by the dazzling sunlight and burst into tears.

Unable to endure the scorching sun, Bai Yan called a taxi with the taxi app, and finally got rid of the torture of the sun. When he returned home, the first thing he did was to draw the curtains, and then he couldn't wait to turn on the air conditioner.

After experiencing a long period of intracranial high. , Bai Yan was a little tired, so he took off his coat, lay on the sofa contentedly and fell asleep. When he was awakened by a gloomy ringtone, the room had completely turned black.

Looking at the dim room, Bai Yan's thoughts were a little chaotic, but when he thought of the young man who turned into ashes in the incinerator, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face again.

Even after a nap, intracranial high. The tide still hadn't ended, and waves of afterglow came from the depths of his soul, making Bai Yan's face flushed, and his pale face was obviously bloody.

"Wang Ze... Good people don't get good rewards... You died so young, leaving behind your elderly parents, it's really... unfortunate!"

Away from the environment of the funeral home full of normal people, Bai Yan now doesn't need to hide his twisted smile at all.

Then, he posted this photo in the most conspicuous place, and admired it leisurely for a while, with an innocent smile.

He wanted this happiness to last a little longer.

In the past, he could not understand the meaning of friends, but now, he finally understood the value of friends.

When Wang Ze was alive, he was bored with this hypocritical relationship, but the moment he knew the news of Wang Ze's death, this relationship brought him incomparable happiness.

Wang Ze, as you said, I didn't make friends with you in vain.

You said that you would make me happy.

You really... did it.

…

After standing in front of the photo for a long time, Bai Yan felt a little hungry, so he reluctantly turned his eyes away from the photo, took out his phone, and prepared to order takeout.

However, as soon as he unlocked the phone, he was stunned.

All the icons on the phone disappeared, even the apps that came with the system disappeared completely.

There was only one app, which was prominently occupied in the center of the screen, with a dark background and blood-red handwriting, which was the four bloody words "Hell Front".

Is this a virus?

Bai Yan pressed the app for a long time, wanting to delete it, but the trash can also disappeared with the app.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Yan chose to turn off the phone.

When the screen was completely dark, he found the weirdness of the matter.

That weird app was still displayed in the center of the screen, and it also emitted a creepy blood light!

It was very abnormal that the phone was turned off but the app was still running.

Bai Yan licked his lips and realized that he had encountered something that could be called a supernatural event.

So, after realizing this, he opened the app without thinking.

A flash of blood passed by, and Bai Yan lost consciousness.

Until, he was awakened by a sharp pain...

...

"...Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! It hurts!"

As soon as he woke up, Bai Yan collapsed and screamed. He kicked his bloodshot eyes and turned his head hard towards the place where the pain came from.

As if to punish his dirty hands, the fingertips of the five fingers of his right hand that pressed the phone were chopped off!

Five fingers are connected to the heart, physiological tears flowed uncontrollably from the eyes, Bai Yan's eyes were blurred, but he opened his eyes wide and looked up along the palm with a missing knuckle.

Standing next to him was a hideous and terrifying evil ghost!

The evil ghost was holding a cold axe and was chopping along his palm. After chopping off the fingertips, the axe chopped up along the knuckles one by one. After screaming several times, Bai Yan finally calmed down, because after chopping off his entire palm, the evil ghost cut his throat with a knife, split his head in half, and rolled to one side.

Bai Yan watched the evil ghost do whatever he wanted to his body, and his eyes were also split into four petals, but the scary thing was that even so, his six eyeballs could still see things, and he had no way to escape the horrible scene.

The evil ghost chopped him into eight pieces, and chopped him into small pieces along the joints like chopping ribs. At this time, Bai Yan was already in pain and blurred his consciousness. Although his brain had been turned into a paste and thrown everywhere, he could feel the pain in every part of his body, from his toes to his scalp, there was no place that was not painful.

Moreover, compared with the pain that can destroy a person's will, this absurdity that cannot be relieved even if he dies can drive anyone crazy.

Looking at the evil ghost's hideous face, Bai Yan felt that his sanity was plummeting. Just when he was about to collapse, a piece of information suddenly flooded into his brain, reducing his pain and allowing him to breathe.

It turned out that... this was a death game called "Hell Frontline". Anyone who clicked on the app will automatically become a player of this game.

Players need to pass twelve levels to completely get rid of this terrifying game. In the game, death is far from being a relief. Any player who commits suicide before passing the level will always suffer such horror and struggle in pain forever!

After reading this message, Bai Yan had a premonition that as long as he agreed to participate in this game, he could get rid of this unbearable torture.

Not wanting to become a pile of disgusting paste and let the evil ghost step on his head, Bai Yan agreed to this game from the bottom of his heart.

…

After he agreed, the evil ghost suddenly disappeared, and a white and bright room appeared in front of him.

The light in the room was a bit dazzling, which made Bai Yan couldn't help crying.

When Bai Yan skillfully took out a handkerchief and lowered his head to wipe his tears, two loud cries came from his side.

Out of curiosity, he tried to wipe his tears and looked in the direction of the crying.

He was currently sitting on a wooden chair with a large square table in front of him. On his right, a woman was crying and her makeup was washed away by tears, which made her beautiful face unbearable to look at.

In addition to the woman's choking sobs, there was also a junior high school student crying loudly opposite Bai Yan.

The student was in the voice change period. If the woman's voice was still bearable, then the crying of this junior high school student made people want to strangle him to death.

The miserable crying of the two people can undoubtedly bring a lot of joy to people, but now is not the time to enjoy it. Bai Yan blocked the two people who were howling more and more fiercely, and began to concentrate on looking at the room.

This room has a door but no window. The door is closed tightly, and it can only be illuminated by the lamp on the ceiling.

The square table is located in the center of the room, square and square, with each side parallel to a wall.

In addition, the room is full of wardrobes, food tables, utility cabinets and other furnishings. Ignoring the bloodstains on the wall, it is probably a warm house full of home flavor.

When Bai Yan looked around, someone finally sat on the last chair.

The moment the newcomer appeared, the phones of several people began to vibrate at the same time.

Feeling the vibration of the phone, the woman suddenly stopped crying like a chicken with its neck pinched, wiped her tears with her hands and began to look down at her phone.

The junior high school student who was crying with her also stopped crying, and fumbled for his phone in his school uniform pocket while crying.

After a quick glance at the newcomer, Bai Yan took out his phone and saw a few lines of bloody words written on the screen without unlocking it.
