Su Yuan was woken up by the cold.

He found himself lying on a wooden bed, covered only by a thin white cloth.

The color of the surrounding walls was pitch black, as if naturally formed.Full novel: Survival in the Eerie World: Starting with Hundredfold Enhancement — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

The narrow space was only about a dozen square meters,

making one feel extremely oppressed.

In the center of the room stood a black wooden square table, and a candle burning on it illuminated the entire room.

"What the hell, where is this?"

He threw off the white cloth covering him, sat up, and discovered he was wearing a thin black cloth clothes.

A gust of cold wind blew in, causing Su Yuan to shiver twice, his lips turning pale from the cold.

Last night, after returning home and washing up, he had gone straight to sleep; how did he suddenly appear in such a black room?

Was he kidnapped?!

If it were a kidnapping, why wasn't he tied up?

Thinking of this, Su Yuan walked quickly toward the door.

Just as he opened the door, the outside was pitch black, like the deep throat of a fierce beast, making one shrink back in fear and feel chilled to the bone.

A bone-chilling cold wind blew past, and it felt as if something in the darkness was pouncing toward him.

Su Yuan was startled and hurriedly closed the door.

At this moment, a voice reached his ears.

【Welcome to the Eerie World. Forget the past; now, you only need to strive to survive.】

What Eerie World?!

Su Yuan widened his eyes.

Knock, knock, knock! Knock, knock, knock!

A burst of intense knocking on the door came from outside.

"Who is it?!"

Su Yuan subconsciously took two steps back.

Thump, thump, thump, thump! Thump, thump, thump, thump!

No one responded to him; the sound of light knocking on the door suddenly turned into the sound of heavy impacts against the door panel.

Su Yuan pulled his sleeves tight and retreated repeatedly, his body bumping into the edge of the table, causing the candlelight to flicker twice, nearly extinguishing.

At the same time, the sound of the door being struck became even more violent.

Su Yuan's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "Who, who is out there?"

Still no response, and he felt his breathing become incredibly rapid.

With a creak, the door opened on its own, and a chill seeped in.

With a bang, the door closed again.

Su Yuan's face turned pale; although he saw nothing, he could feel that something had slipped in and was now inside the room.

He turned around and moved closer to the candle on the table; only that warm candlelight could make him feel slightly at ease. At the same time, Su Yuan noticed a purple-black notebook placed on the table.

The entirely purple-black notebook appeared very mysterious.

Perhaps some secret was hidden inside it.

Su Yuan hurriedly grabbed it and opened it. On the first page of the manual, six twisted black characters were written: Strange Survival Manual.

Beneath the Strange Survival Manual, a mass of black mist slowly condensed, gradually forming small black characters.

This eerie scene made Su Yuan's hand tremble, and he dropped the manual onto the floor.

But his gaze never left the words that appeared on that page.

【Eerie Rule: Ghost Blowing Lamp. Please protect the candlelight on the table well. If the candlelight goes out, you will die. Survive the black night, and it will naturally leave.】

Eerie Rule, what on earth is going on?

Whoosh!

A small gust of wind blew past, and Su Yuan hurriedly used his hand to shield the flickering candlelight.

Gulp!

Su Yuan swallowed his saliva.

There is a ghost!

His face turned ashen.

That small gust of wind just now clearly felt like someone had blown a breath.

Yet, in this narrow room, he was the only one there.

What should I do?

Protect the candlelight, yes, I must protect it well.

Whoosh!

It blew toward the candle again and again, and Su Yuan shielded it tightly to prevent the candlelight from going out.

I can't hold on for too long, that was Su Yuan's thought.

The candle would be blown out sooner or later.

Not only that, he discovered that the candle was stuck firmly to the table; he tried to pry it off, but couldn't.

Will I really die?

Su Yuan felt his heart had jumped into his throat.

Just then, a voice rang in his ears.

【Awakening Talent, Hundredfold Enhancement, currently being implanted.】

A warm current flowed in from his crown point and gradually spread throughout Su Yuan's entire body; he felt as if something had been added to his body.

"Awakening Talent?"

Su Yuan was stunned for a moment, and when his gaze shifted back to the flickering candlelight.

The information about the candle appeared.

Candle: Normal item

Can emit candlelight (Possesses a certain Evil Warding Attribute)

Strength: 5 (Easily extinguished)

Sustainable burning time: 5 hours.

He not only saw the item attributes but also discovered a "+" sign after the attributes.

Su Yuan imagined clicking the plus sign,

the strength, which was only 5, instantly became 500 (Difficult to extinguish).

Su Yuan's face lit up with joy.

Could this be the effect of Hundredfold Enhancement?!

Not only that, the candlelight that was originally displayed above,

had actually changed to Holy Light (Possesses a Deterrence effect against anomalies).

The next second, the entire room was filled with light, and the warm light fell upon him, instantly dispelling the chill.

"Ah!"

A shrill, miserable scream rang in Su Yuan's ears.

He saw a strange black shadow flash past him and rush toward the direction of the door.

With a bang.

The door was opened and then closed again.

The ghost, it ran away?!

Su Yuan looked at the candle on the table emitting a soft holy light and let out a sigh of relief.

"Hurry and enhance the burning time too! To save it from going out later."

But when he prepared to enhance the burning time,

the "+" sign after the attribute disappeared.

Could it only be enhanced once?

Su Yuan looked at the table.

Table: Normal item

Hardness: 5

Durability: 3

The "+" sign appeared again after the table's attributes.

He enhanced the durability, 3 became 300, and then the "+" sign disappeared.

It seems his guess was correct.

He could only enhance one of the item's attributes.

Su Yuan looked at the tightly closed door and pondered to himself: "It was scared away by the holy light, it shouldn't come back again, right?"

Su Yuan walked over and picked up the manual; the Eerie Rule on it had disappeared, replaced by this sentence.

【The anomaly has left; there will be no more anomalies visiting on the first night.】

The stone in Su Yuan's heart finally fell.

It seems he really had arrived in a strange different world, participating in a survival game.

He looked at the survival manual in his hand and thought to himself: Perhaps this contains a detailed record of this world.

What is after this?

Su Yuan flipped to the back and opened the second page.

This page contained his basic attribute information.

Survivor ID: Su Yuan

Strength: 4

Stamina: 5

Agility: 4

Spirit: 6

(The average for each of the above abilities for a normal person is 5)

Life: 1

(Normal people all have 1 life)

Talent: Hundredfold Enhancement

Ability: None

Items: None

At this moment, Su Yuan's eyes lit up!

There is a "+" sign!

A "+" appeared after his own attributes!

What does this mean?!

He could choose his own attributes for a hundredfold enhancement.

He absolutely must not use it rashly.

After all, he could only choose one of the attributes.

Strength, Stamina, Agility, Life, Spirit.

The corners of Su Yuan's mouth curled up slightly; he had already made his choice.

Hundredfold Enhancement!

100 lives!

This is a survival game, after all.

The importance of life is self-evident.

This is absolutely a perfect start!

"Don't get cocky; in this Eerie World, 100 lives aren't enough to mess around with." Su Yuan calmed down: "But compared to other survivors, I possess a fault tolerance rate they can't match."

Su Yuan also discovered that the Hundredfold Enhancement talent couldn't be used on just any item; he grabbed a handful of dirt.

Dirt (Normal material)

It had no attributes that could be enhanced a hundredfold.

Su Yuan continued to flip through the Strange Survival Manual; the third page displayed the Black Room.

【Level 0 Black Room (Main Room 13 square meters)

Defense: 5

Evil Warding: 3 (Evil Warding effect: Mainly serves as a deterrent against anomalies)

Materials required to upgrade to Level 1 Black Room: (Wood: 100), (Stone Material: 100), (Evil Warding Ore: 50)

(The Black Room is your base for resisting anomalies after arriving in the Survival World. You must hurry to upgrade it to increase its strength in resisting anomalies.)】

Material Decomposition and Processing Room (Level 0, 10 square meters) can decompose and process items.

Materials obtained from processing: Normal. (Normal, Good, Excellent, Perfect, Peerless, Legendary, Mythical)——

Storage Room (Level 0, 12 square meters) used for storing supplies; upgrading can increase its storage space.

Anti-corrosion Effect: Poor.

Kitchen (Not yet opened)

A place for cooking food; requires upgrading to Level 1 Black Room to open.

Equipment Synthesis Room (Not yet opened)

A place for crafting equipment; requires upgrading to Level 1 Black Room to open.

The kitchen and equipment synthesis room haven't been opened yet, so he didn't need to worry about them for now. The Material Decomposition and Processing Room and the Storage Room should be behind the two doors on the wall facing the door.

Su Yuan went over, opened the doors to take a look, but since he didn't need them for now, he didn't pay them any more mind and closed the doors again.

When Su Yuan looked at the attributes of the Black Room, the processing room, and the storage room in the manual, that familiar "+" sign appeared again.

After the processing room was enhanced a hundredfold, the grade of materials obtained from processing became: Peerless.

After the storage room was enhanced, the anti-corrosion effect even became: No longer decays!

"Haha, awesome, awesome!"

However, for the current stage, these effects were not yet very obvious.

Su Yuan focused his gaze on the attributes of the Black Room.

He chose to enhance the Evil Warding attribute without hesitation.

Evil Warding attribute: 300.

In the Eerie World, the effect of Evil Warding must be stronger than defense.

The moment it was enhanced, a series of heart-wrenching screams came from outside.

Su Yuan gave a start; it seems there are quite a few anomalies outside coveting him!

Request recommendations, request collection!!!! Thank you, Big Shots!
