[No System | Rules-Based Horror | Infinite Loop | Deep-Sea Survival | Ensemble Cast and Human Nature]
The research vessel Odysseus descended into the Mariana Trench when a ring of white light swept it into the void at the end of the deep sea.
Sixteen people and a Shiba Inu were trapped inside the circle of light. Beyond it, there was no sea, no sky, nothing at all.
At midnight, a mechanical woman's voice rang out in their minds right on time: [Survivors: sixteen.] [Midnight Tide has begun.] [Selecting the subject of this round's heart-demon trial...]
Whoever was selected would have the thing they feared facing most in their life dragged into the open and played before everyone. Those who couldn't take it would shatter piece by piece, just like that fat man, and be blown away without a trace. And those who could endure? They would only be dragged into the next round.
There are no monsters hunting them, no health bars, no cheats. The shallow pool provides food and drink for free, and the ring of light grants every request, but every gift comes with a price quietly attached.
Shang Qi, the chief scientist, has no golden finger. Relying on sharp eyes and logic, she searches for the truth amid the secrets aboard the ship. At her side are seven-year-old Annie, the mysterious and arrogant Ye Fei, and his Shiba Inu, Xi Ba. There's the captain who killed everyone on a plane yet was hailed as a hero, a gambler blinded by his losses, an influencer who climbs over others while cultivating a kind image... Everyone has a demon locked in their heart.
She gradually discovers that this place is never judging who deserves to die. It's asking one thing: do you dare face yourself?
The deep sea offers no passage. What must be crossed is not the sea, but the human heart.
Dear readers, thank you for clicking this book. When the scientific research ship crashed into the white circle that night, Shang Qi thought that the worst outcome would be death, but later he discovered that death was the easiest thing in the white circle. At midnight every night, the tide will take away a person and force him to relive the memory he least dares to face: some people are freed, and some people stay there forever. As for me, I quietly buried a line: Why did the white circle choose this ship? What is Shang Qi's own inner demon? The answers are all hidden in the details, and you will take a breath after you catch up. The deep sea cannot ferry people, but people can ferry people. See you in the text. 😎
Great, worth watching
