I Play the Horror World as a Simulation Game

The voice came from within the black fog. Qin Nuo knew he couldn't escape, so he simply stood still, watching the spot where the sound originated.

A shadow slowly emerged, revealing itself to be his homeroom teacher, Mr. Yan.

His smile was as gentle as ever, but there were a few black veins crawling eerily across his face, adding a touch of horror behind his smile.

In his hand, he still held that black bag, and in the other, his so-called toy gun.

The black bag seemed heavier, and Qin Nuo could clearly see blood seeping from the bottom, dripping onto the floor. What it contained was obvious.

Seeing Qin Nuo, Mr. Yan appeared unusually excited, his dark pupils gleaming. "Isn't this my good student, Xiaoming? Why are you here alone?"

"Unlucky, aren't you? Caught by the teacher so soon. According to the game rules, you have to accept a little punishment."

With that, he raised the toy gun in his hand.

Qin Nuo instinctively took two steps back, extending a hand with a smile. "Teacher, I have candy."

Seeing the candies, Mr. Yan's expression froze for a moment, and his smile faded significantly. "Really? You're quite efficient."

"But three candies aren't much. The game is long, so keep it up."

As he spoke, the candies disappeared from Qin Nuo's hand.

When he looked up again, they were all in Mr. Yan's hand.

He smiled and said, "Next time you run into the teacher, you'll need more candies. I hope you'll have some."

With that, Mr. Yan turned and vanished into the black fog, leaving a bright trail of blood on the ground.

"This Mr. Yan seems to be targeting me, taking all my candies at once. Is that really the rule of the game?" Qin Nuo muttered as he walked away, unconcerned about the candy count.

As he moved through the black fog, a chill ran down his spine, as if a pair of eyes were watching him from behind.

This creepy feeling was all too familiar to Qin Nuo. He stopped and turned to look into the black fog.

"Come out."

A thin figure slowly emerged. Li Qianqian still had her hair disheveled, looking sloppy. Under her dry hair, her eyes were incredibly murky.

The difference was that her right hand was dripping with blood, though it was unclear how serious the injury was as it was obscured.

"What happened to your hand?" Qin Nuo asked calmly.

This seemingly casual question sounded like a caring inquiry to Li Qianqian, making her murky eyes suddenly clear and bright.

"A big guy caught me, and I fought it."

"But don't worry, although I couldn't beat it, I managed to escape." Li Qianqian added, fearing Qin Nuo would worry.

Hearing about the monster, Qin Nuo inexplicably thought of the one he had seen in the corridor earlier.

"Was it the teacher?"

"I don't know. It seemed to have caught your scent and was heading your way, so I stopped it for you," Li Qianqian said.

After speaking, she seemed to remember something and continued, "Also, there are a few guys looking for you with bad intentions."

"They're repeaters. I couldn't beat them, so just be careful," Li Qianqian said, looking a bit downcast, as if blaming herself for being useless.

"Why?" Qin Nuo, playing Li Xiaoming, had many enemies, but he had dealt with most of them recently. Why was there a new one?

"Your brother sent them," Li Qianqian whispered, looking puzzled.

Qin Nuo listened, feeling helpless. He had sewn Li Xiaodie's mouth shut, but Li Xiaodong wouldn't let it go.

He hadn't expected his brother to have such influence at school.

"I understand. You don't need to follow me. Find a place to hide," Qin Nuo waved her off.

Li Qianqian said nothing, clearly worried about Qin Nuo's situation and unwilling to leave.

"Today is Children's Day. I want to enjoy myself without being disturbed."

"I'll handle my family matters. No need to say more, right?" Qin Nuo said, staring at Li Qianqian with a deliberately cold tone.

His cold demeanor was meant to make her leave for her own good.

Li Qianqian was silent for a moment, then nodded. "Be careful. I'll go now."

With that, she disappeared into the black fog.

"Li Xiaoming's charm with women makes me a bit envious. How can someone with such a twisted personality have so many girls willing to be simps?"

"Or is it that women love bad boys?" Qin Nuo shook his head, unable to understand.

Continuing through the black fog, Qin Nuo hadn't obtained more candies but had a better understanding of how to get them.

In this game, candies weren't found but obtained from the game NPCs distributing them.

How to get them depended on how the teachers distributing candies set their challenges.

Like the art teacher, who would give candies if you painted something she liked.

It was a task—complete it for candies, fail and lose your life, with no retreat.

The dense black fog seemed to carry some magic, filling the long-abandoned classrooms, as if giving them new life.

To the naked eye, they were abandoned classrooms, yet the sounds of students reciting and teachers lecturing echoed, sending chills down one's spine.

Having learned from experience, Qin Nuo didn't enter recklessly again.

Once inside a classroom, you couldn't leave without doing something.

"This way of getting candies is too slow. After all that effort, only a few candies. If only there were a more efficient way."

As Qin Nuo walked, he muttered to himself.

Just then, the game's announcement sounded in his mind, reporting the current player rankings in the game mode.

Out of 50 players in the game mode, 15 had been eliminated in just half an hour!

20 players had zero candies, clearly hiding like Lord Voldemort from the start.

The remaining 15, including Qin Nuo, had obtained candies, but most only had one.

Qin Nuo had three candies, placing him third.

The second-place player only had one more candy than Qin Nuo.

But the first-place player had an astonishing 20 candies!

It was a huge gap, leaving the second and third far behind!

With 20 candies, the first-place player was almost guaranteed to be the best in this game.

Looking at the top player, Qin Nuo frowned, surprised.

How did this person get 20 candies in 30 minutes?

According to the normal rules, it seemed impossible. The only possibility was that they didn't follow the normal rules to get candies.

Unconventional methods?

What unconventional methods?

Qin Nuo pondered, suddenly realizing something.

Li Qianqian had mentioned that the ghost that attacked her wore a mask, unclear if it was a teacher or student, and carried a sack, capturing students for candies.

It was clear that this so-called monster was the first-place player!

They likely used some ghostly trick to hide their identity.

"Exploiting a loophole in the game rules to efficiently grab candies, that's a clever guy."

Though Qin Nuo said this, a smile crept onto his lips.

He had thought of a brilliant plan.
