Chapter 1 Mysterious System

 In the hot summer, when the earth is scorching, staying at home with the air conditioner blowing and playing games is the best choice.

The computer screen says, Good luck, let’s eat chicken tonight.

"Beautiful, Deng Yun! It's great to play with you! At your level, you can even play professionally." The voice of a teammate came from the headset.

The corners of Deng Yun's mouth rose slightly, feeling extremely satisfied.

He is 20 years old and is a college student. Now during the summer vacation, it is the golden time for playing games.

I'm 175, and my height is average in the class. I like to keep my hair short because I don't like to take care of my hair. I have a small scar on my forehead. I fell down the stairs when I was a child. I'm average in appearance, but I feel good about myself.<

/p>

Since he was a child, he has felt that he is a professional gamer, and he has also aspired to be an unprecedented e-sports player. Unfortunately, there is still a certain gap between reality and ideals. His father's rejection is a hurdle that he cannot overcome.

Soon they arrived at the final circle. Deng Yun stayed at the commanding heights and eliminated the enemies who ran into the circle one by one. When the last enemy was eliminated, Deng Yun won again.

"Brother Deng, you are my father!" The crazy shouts of teammates came from the headphones.

"Jicao, Jicao, Monkey, I have helped you score so many points today, why don't you express your gratitude?" Deng Yun glanced at his phone, and a new message was popping up on the lock screen.

Monkey is his best college classmate. His real name is Liu Ya. He has a carefree personality and is very loyal to his friends.

"Hey! Wait! After school starts, we'll get ready at the barbecue restaurant opposite the school!"

"Okay, Boss Liu has sent word that he will take you to Oita today." Deng Yun fiddled with his phone and browsed the information on it.

This is news from my father, Deng Xiangjie, who is a researcher at a pharmaceutical factory in N city. The flu has been severe recently and he often works overtime.

"Xiaoyun, I'm working overtime tonight. You can order takeout for dinner. Play less on the computer. It's not good for your eyes. Read more books."

There is a 50-yuan red envelope to be received under the message, and there is a note on it, eat more meat.

Deng Yun pouted, accepted the red envelope, and continued to the next round of the game.

I was about to start the second game, but the screen suddenly got stuck.

"I am

At this time, the screen flickered, and a series of messy codes appeared, which was dizzying.

Deng Yun was confused for a moment, is this poisoning? I haven't browsed any small websites recently?

He didn't hesitate and immediately unplugged the cable strip and disconnected all power sources.

A strange scene appeared, the computer display screen was still flashing, Deng Yun was startled, and a new interface appeared on the screen.

His mind went blank for a while, and huge fear enveloped him.

This must be an illusion. How can a computer start without a power supply? Does this computer have a backup power supply?

A black window pops up on the interface, with various professions listed on it.

Fighter, swordsman, swordsman, gunner, magician, knight...

Deng Yun glanced at it, picked up the phone with trembling hands, and was about to ask for help. Unexpectedly, these interfaces would pop up on the phone screen, displaying various occupations, tempting Deng Yun to choose.

Throwing away his cell phone, he rushed out of the bedroom, and the TV in the living room turned on by itself, showing images of those professions.

He wanted to escape from the room, but found that the door and window had disappeared.

At this time, right in front of his eyes, the interface just appeared in the sky, appearing in front of him like a projection, and a mechanical voice sounded in his ears.

"Please select a profession."

Deng Yun gradually calmed down and fell into deep thought as he looked at the interface in front of him.

Is this a system?

Having read the novel, he immediately understood his current situation.

But the system is the system, why are you so scary?

Deng Yunping calmed down and looked carefully at the interface in front of him.

There are many professions, and they are densely packed. Deng Yun clicks on a profession at random, and the second layer interface appears, briefly introducing the general content of each profession.

For example, a fighter is good at close combat, and in the later stage he can fight one against a hundred, and is invincible; a swordsman, with a sword in his hand, can split the sky and crack rocks; a swordsman, with sword energy reaching the clouds, can reach the sky with one sword...

Deng Yun watched it with great interest, and finally chose... the gunman...

A gunman and a master of marksmanship, he is familiar with the use of various firearms and is able to hit every target without missing a beat.

Definitely choose a gunner. In what age are you still playing with cold weapons?

Deng Yun felt that his choice was right. Since it is a system, wouldn't it be possible to redeem various firearms later? For a shooting game enthusiast, this profession is the best choice.

"Career selection successful, achievement unlocked, Marksmanship Apprentice, Damage 1, Aiming Accuracy 1."

As the system sound ended, a dazzling white light flashed, and Deng Yun found himself back at the computer desk.

He took off his headphones and looked at the computer screen in a daze.

"Hey, system?" He tried shouting.

There was no reaction from the outside world.

"Hey, Siri, hey, Xiaodu, hey, girl..."

There is nothing strange about the surroundings.

Deng Yun laughed at himself. Sure enough, what he just experienced was an illusion. Why did he have that illusion? He didn't know the reason.

I suddenly wanted to drink some Coke to calm my panic, but there were only a few bottles of water in the refrigerator and half of the uneaten watermelon.

Deng Yun picked up his mobile phone, put on his mask, and prepared to go downstairs to buy some drinks.

He entered the elevator and met his next-door neighbor, a woman and her five-year-old child.

The child was holding a slingshot in his hand. The slingshot was as big as his head. The child pulled the slingshot hard, his face turned red, and he could not fully open the slingshot.

The mother noticed Deng Yun's gaze and said with a smile: "The toy his father bought for him was the wrong model, so he had to make do with it."

"It's okay, I can continue to play when I grow up." Deng Yun said with a smile.

Just after the elevator went down a few floors, a fat man in a white shirt walked in. Deng Yun knew him and he was the property owner of this community.

As soon as the fat man came in, the woman reported that the access control communicator at home was damaged. The fat man quickly comforted her and talked about it, as if he wanted to shirk the matter.

When I walked out of the building, I could hear the sound of an excavator. The community was undergoing landscaping renovations, and there were broken stones on the road.

The convenience store is at the entrance of the community. Although it is not big, it has all kinds of snacks and drinks.

As soon as Deng Yun arrived at the convenience store, he heard the store manager talking about the latest news.

"I heard something weird happened in that Fenghua Community." The store manager looked mysterious.

"Fenghua? That's very close to us. What's weird?"

"The patient over there bites people, just like a mad dog."

"Oh my God, is this rabies? Oh, it's all weird things."

Deng Yun shook his head indifferently. After all, he was a die-hard homebody. As long as he took care of food and drink, he could stay at home until the end of time.

Deng Yun was panting from exhaustion after carrying a box of Coke home from a convenience store.

He was about to sit down and start playing games with the monkey when his stomach growled.

I casually ordered the Duck Blood Fans, put on my headphones, and started to score points.

After playing two or three games, the doorstep at home rang.

"I'm going to get a takeaway. Just stay in the building and don't go out." Deng Yun told the monkey and went to the living room.

He helped the delivery boy open the door downstairs. After waiting for a few minutes, there was a knock on the door.

Opening the door, the delivery boy wearing a mask was coughing non-stop.

Deng Yun confirmed the food, nodded, and took the takeaway from the other party's hand.

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

The takeaway boy's coughing became more violent, and the sound of liquid in his throat could be heard. He coughed and bent over, and there was a squeaking sound under the mask, which was stained red with blood.

"Are you...are you okay? Do you want me to call an ambulance?" Deng Yun hid behind the door and looked warily at the takeaway boy outside.

The delivery boy waved his hands, covered his mouth, and staggered away.

Deng Yun stuck his head out and watched the other party enter the elevator.

He closed the door, glanced at the well-sealed takeaway in his hand, and suddenly lost the desire to eat.

Putting the takeout on the living room table, he went back to the bedroom to play games.

At this time, the monkey's surprised voice came from the earphones.

"Wait a minute, it's noisy outside, let me go check it out."

At this time, 19:30 in the evening...

Hearing the monkey's words, Deng Yun felt his heart tightening.

"What happened?" he asked quickly.

"I'll go take a look! I'll send you a WeChat message then." After the monkey said it, he went offline.

Within a few minutes, a video application popped up on WeChat.

As soon as Deng Yun got through, he heard the trembling sound of the monkey.

"Deng Yun, I feel something is wrong. Look, there seems to be a fire over there, and everyone is going crazy outside!"

As the video screen turned, a fire seemed to be rising not far away. It seemed that a building was on fire. In a closer block, cars passed quickly, seeming to be escaping from some kind of danger.

In the video, you can still hear messy human voices, which seem to be screams, calls for help, and whistles. All kinds of sounds are mixed together, which makes people's scalp numb.
p>

The monkey is in City Y, just next to City N, more than 40 kilometers away.

"Deng Yun, what should I do?" Monkey said in a panic.

Deng Yun looked out the window of his home. The night was falling and everything was peaceful, and asked: "Calm down, where are your parents?"

"They went for a walk after dinner, and I don't know where they are." The monkey's voice became even more panicked.

"Contact them first and go home quickly. Then we will see what happens. Lock the door at home and don't let strangers in." Deng Yun suggested.

The two of them had just hung up the video when their cell phone rang. It was their father's call.

Deng Yun quickly connected and heard his father's urgent voice.

"Are you at home?!"

"I'm at home, what's wrong? Dad?"

"Stay at home, lock the door, and wait for me to come back. Remember, don't let anyone enter the house...including me. If you see something is wrong with me, don't let me in."

"What do you mean? Dad, this is a bit scary."

"There is an unknown virus spreading. You can understand it as a zombie virus, just like the zombie movies you have seen."

Deng Yun's heart skipped a beat, remembering the conversation between the store owner and the biting incident in Fenghua Community, which is only two or three blocks away from home.

As if to verify his suspicion, noisy sounds soon came from outside the window.

"Remember my words! Wait until I come back!"

The communication was hung up, and Deng Yun was stunned on the spot. Everything that happened now made him unbelievable. When the things that appeared in the movie came to reality, it was unacceptable for a while.

The noise outside the window got louder.

Deng Yun came to his father's bedroom. The window of this room faced the street outside. Through the glass, Deng Yun could clearly see everything happening outside.

Under the street lights, figures were running one after another. One of them suddenly threw down the person running in front of him. A car was driving swaying with a person hanging on its side window.

Soon, he discovered that someone was rushing towards the gate of the community. Three security guards at the door came to stop them. Those people immediately jumped over the railing and threw down the security guards who were blocking them.

The three security guards who were knocked down twitched on the ground, got up again, howled, and rushed into the depths of the community.

There were also dog walkers on the boulevard of the community. They didn't know what was happening and stayed in place. However, the dogs they were holding sensed danger and barked to warn their owners.

Soon, several dog walkers were also thrown to the ground.

Deng Yun quickly closed the curtains, his heart pounding.

As if remembering something, he quickly took out his mobile phone and contacted Monkey.

No one answered, so Deng Yun quickly sent a message.

"Monkey, zombie virus, don't get bitten, stay at home and wait for rescue!"
