Chapter 379 — Got Dropped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work — Part 3

Chapter 379

Daydream Inc. mobilizes over a hundred workers for a special night assignment, which the protagonist recognizes as a high-risk 'Exploration Record' ghost story. The workers are divided into groups of five and led into a pitch-black containment cell. Among the workers is Assistant Manager Jin Nasol, who prepares painkillers in anticipation. Upon entering the darkness, the group finds themselves not in a cell, but on a mountain path. A distributed notice describes a 'Refreshing Courage Test' at Sagyeong Mountain, requiring explorers to collect 43 stamps at various locations, including Sagyeong Lodge and Osaek Mineral Spring. The workers realize they are at a retreat center where a group of students previously died in a mysterious accident. A worker reveals he smuggled a flashlight, which the protagonist realizes is a trap. To prevent disaster, the protagonist physically subdues the worker and screams for everyone to close their eyes before the light is activated. When the light turns on, the workers who were looking at the illumination—including the man with the flashlight—instantly disappear. The protagonist and Jin Nasol, who had closed their eyes, are left alone with the terrified worker. The protagonist deduces the ghost story's identity: 'Let There Be No Light' (Qterw-C-1010), where anyone who turns on a light, or anyone who sees what is illuminated, disappears. He realizes the company intentionally allowed the smuggling to use the workers as a control group. Despite the terror, the protagonist and Jin Nasol decide to proceed with the courage test to find an escape, knowing a horrific situation will soon arise that tempts them to use light.
