Synopsis

[No romance + horror + mystery + livestreaming + national fortunes]

The paranormal returns, and rule-based horror games descend upon the world.

One chosen player from each country is randomly selected to enter a horror game.

If a player dies, the game descends upon their country. Only by clearing it can the country dispel the horror and claim its rewards.

The lucky Qin Jiu is chosen by the game to represent the Dragon Kingdom, attracting the attention of millions.

(Dear son, Mom and Dad are going on a business trip. While we're away this week, take good care of yourself. You'll be home alone, so be sure to follow the rules. Be a good boy and wait for us to come back.)

[1. The city's air is fresh. Breathing it in will lift your spirits.]

[2. Remember to go to bed early and get up early. It'll keep you healthy!]

[3. Eat your meals on time to stay healthy.]

[4. You can watch TV, but don't watch for too long. Mom knows you're a good, self-disciplined boy.]

[5. There is a clock only in the living room.]

[6. Mom knows you can't cook, so you can order delivery from Uncle Li's place. His food is the healthiest, and Mom won't worry.]

[7. There's enough food in the fridge to last until Mom and Dad get home.]

[8. The kitchen trash has been there for two days. Remember to take it out for Mom, or it'll start to stink!]

[9. When you go to sleep, make sure the curtains are closed.]

[10. Take out the trash on time. Don't leave it in the house for more than three days.]

[11. Please don't leave the house without a good reason. The house is completely safe.]

[12. If you see the neighbors acting strangely, don't panic. Close the door. They can't see you through it.]

Proper Rule-Based Horror Stories, No Bait-and-Switch

I'm looking for rule-based horror stories like The Zoo Mystery. At least most of the rules should be correct, and violating them should result in contamination rather than instantly kicking the bucket. An ordinary person who stays alert should have a chance of making it through, instead of it being completely dependent on an overpowered cheat that nobody can survive without.

I love the protagonist's solution; it really resonated with me. Highly recommend this story. For example, the story describes how some people criticized the protagonist, and the official response was to deal with it directly, unlike other stories where the story remains online for over 30 chapters. That was always off-putting.

I haven't finished watching it, but that doesn't stop me from giving it five stars. This mom's note is different from others, very innovative. The strategy team is finally not just watching as extras! Overall, the experience so far is quite good. I'll leave a follow-up review later. (￣▽￣)σ Xiaobai's crush has been sent to her, the strategy team has changed, and now there are even lousy people joining the strategy team. So sad (T▽T)

It's a good novel. The protagonist doesn't rely entirely on luck; he's also intelligent and powerful. The supporting characters each have their own specialties and characteristics. So far, I think it's a pretty good novel. Keep updating, author! [Note] 😘

Sure, sure, but I clicked in because of the word "lucky" in the title. May I ask, I am lucky, but not much. When will I be more lucky and noticeable?

The hospital dungeon was a bit rushed, and some foreshadowing elements weren't used. It's all because Brother Jiu cleared the game too quickly!

Good, the think tank is finally not just for show. The protagonist doesn't have any overpowered abilities either. It's quite enjoyable to watch.

It's great!! There aren't many chapters yet, so you'll have to read it quickly to fully enjoy it. Looking forward to more updates!

It's not bad. The beginning is quite good, but the advantage isn't as obvious later on. Although it claims to offer ten times the points, the book's title suggests I got through by luck, and that advantage didn't materialize later.
