"..."
This sudden prompt left CaseOh completely stunned.
"Huh? There's even a blood pressure warning?"
"Damn, the game developer is so thoughtful!"
"Haha, looks like the game author knew his own game was too scary, so he added this safety feature in advance!"
"He's really too gentle. I'm crying!"
Seeing this prompt, the viewers immediately realized it must be an insurance measure added by the game developer.
"No wonder I felt a bit dizzy just now. So it was because my blood pressure spiked?"
CaseOh was also a little surprised. He had indeed experienced a brief spell of dizziness earlier.
Only after this reminder did it finally dawn on him.
But it wasn't over yet. After that text disappeared, another line appeared.
"Now entering relaxation time."
Then CaseOh heard warm, gentle music playing beside his ears.
Accompanied by the soothing melody, the game screen changed once again.
CaseOh was instantly transported from the dark hallway into a completely different room.
The entire room was a kawaii shade of pink. The ceiling, the floor tiles, everything was pink and covered in drawings of flowers and plants.
Inside the pink room were all kinds of dolls placed everywhere.
On the floor were several adorable cats and dogs.
The moment they saw CaseOh, they walked over, gathered around him, and kept rubbing their bodies against his legs!
The originally terrifying atmosphere had instantly turned cute and warm.
CaseOh and all the viewers in the livestream room were utterly dumbfounded!
"Holy shit, how did the environment suddenly become so cute and cozy!!"
"HAHAHAHAHA!"
"This must be a scene specially designed by the Devs to help players relax!"
"Yeah, that makes sense. The visuals are really cute!"
"This fucking devs idea is so subtle. I'm in love!"
The livestream room instantly exploded. This sudden warm and adorable scene was just too different in style from the original game's aesthetic!
Could you believe this was actually Silent Hill PT?
But soon some viewers started feeling something was off.
"Having said that, even though the visuals are super cute, why does it feel a little mocking?"
"Exactly. Deliberately putting dolls and kittens and puppies here, the sarcasm level is maxed out, haha!"
"Haha, it feels like they're trying to comfort a little kid!"
"So that's the hidden meaning. This game author really knows how to play. I'm in love!"
"This counts as a game Easter egg, right?!"
"CaseOh did good. Even though he got scared into high blood pressure, discovering an Easter egg still earns him a point!"
To be fair, Lucien had no intention of mocking the players at all.
He had simply wanted to create a warm and cute scene to ease the fear players felt while playing Silent Hill PT!
Who knew the players would interpret it that way!
"So you're putting me in this kawaii place. Is that supposed to be looking down on me?!"
At first CaseOh had only thought the scene was cute and warm. Even as a grown man he almost couldn't handle it.
After all, cats and dogs were just too adorable.
But after hearing the viewers' comments, CaseOh suddenly felt they made perfect sense!
This Devs was probably being sarcastic toward him!
Soon the relaxation time ended. The cute girly-pink scene disappeared, and CaseOh returned to the game's main interface.
"Whew, I'm playing it again. I realize now that this game really is pretty terrifying!"
"But a single knocking sound definitely won't scare me off."
"This blood pressure detection thing must be buggy. How could just hearing one knock raise my blood pressure?"
"I feel perfectly fine right now. Nothing's going to happen!"
Muttering to himself, CaseOh stubbornly opened the game for a second time.
In truth, he was panicking inside. CaseOh really had been scared by the game.
But as a man, he still had to save face!
He had only played for such a short time before getting kicked out for high blood pressure, and then they even threw in that girly-pink scene to mock him.
He definitely couldn't swallow that!
With the experience from before, CaseOh became much braver on his second playthrough and charged forward aggressively.
He quickly reached the second loop.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As he passed the bathroom, the sudden knocking sounded again.
"Heh, still trying to scare me?" This time CaseOh let out a smirk, his expression calm. He ignored it completely and continued forward.
But soon he ran into the same problem Jenny had encountered.
The front door wouldn't open, and the bathroom door behind him slowly creaked open a crack by itself.
CaseOh's calm expression instantly collapsed.
"Chats, what's going on? Why did the bathroom door open by itself? Holy shit!"
CaseOh started panicking. "Has anyone watched Jenny's livestream? Can someone tell me if something really terrifying is about to happen next!!"
