Synopsis

[Character transmigration + rule-based horror + deduction + growth + comedy + national destiny + teamwork + side characters with brains...]

[There are quite a few personal additions involving Huohuo and Mr. Tail.]

Horror games have quietly descended upon Blue Star.

Every country is forced by the rules of these horror games to participate in a deadly game.

One day, while the timid Huohuo and the Galactic Baseballer are carrying out a mission, they enter a room filled with bronze mirrors.

After they decide to pass through one of the mirrors, Huohuo is the only one accidentally transported to the Dragon Kingdom. Right after that, the rules of the horror game lock onto her, making her a player.

From then on, unlucky, cowardly Huohuo and Mr. Tail have no choice but to obey the rules and clear one terrifying scenario after another...

“When you’re afraid, you can laugh out loud to drive away your fear, just like this: heh heh heh heh heh...”

“G-Ghosts!!! Tail... help...”

“I heard you, I heard you. You’re so noisy.”

Awesome! The main character's design is so similar! I'm a newbie myself, so here are just my humble opinions based on the books I've read. This! The worldview is described in great detail ❤️ The other main characters are all incredibly powerful and illogical, but this book... Has a very sophisticated analysis of the rules. (This is just my humble opinion.)

The author's writing is superb, far surpassing some fanfiction where the characters follow the plot but are out of character. Those fans must have had their blood pressure skyrocketing after reading it. This is my first time reading a ghost story, and it's completely addictive. Huo Huo is so cute!

Great book! 👍 Even just the descriptions of players from other countries alone blow away many similar books. Compared to other books that vehemently denigrate players from other countries while praising their own, this book offers much more three-dimensional characters.

1. The personalities of Huo Huo and Tail Grandpa in this book are consistent with the original work; at least in my opinion, there are no out-of-character (OOC) situations. 2. Unlike traditional novels that combine national destiny with supernatural tales, this book does not rely on live streams or countermeasures bureaus to pad the narrative.

This is an article with intelligence, unlike other articles about the fate of the nation. There was no live stream or bullet comments; factors that could negatively affect the reader's blood pressure were eliminated as much as possible. Instead, the game was played globally via walkthrough videos. The characters are all carefully crafted, and they think about their respective countries.

Few can write a supernatural tale with such harmony; the chosen ones from different countries aren't scheming against each other. On the contrary, they trust each other and constantly cooperate. Few are meaningless supporting characters. Like Kroh, whose optimism tinged with a touch of arrogance is a major highlight of the novel.

Great article! No bullet comments, no live stream. It's less of a story about national destiny and more of a story about half-infinite and half-rule-based narratives. There's very little plot about the national side (and the author only left it unresolved after setting up a cliffhanger). Everyone has brains and works together.

The supporting characters are intelligent, and the main characters' personalities fit the established characters. Perhaps because the third instance featured something resembling a promotional video, I unexpectedly felt a sense of déjà vu for San Zha's *Thriller Paradise* within a book of supernatural tales 🍉. Overall, it deserves five stars.

This is the first time I've seen an author who can write about other countries so brilliantly. Keep up the good work, author!

That's nice! Could you give Huo Huo some gadgets to improve her quality of life? Like a gourmet tablecloth, an oil lamp that never goes out, an antimatter energy flashlight, a Kassel equipment department-made anti-Odin lighter, a camera that changes clothes in a second, a music player with built-in special effects, a robot vacuum cleaner that can infinitely split into cannon fodder... And so on.
