Real Cthulhu Running Game

Liu Xing took a look at the bones of the Deta people on the ground and found that they were all similar, or different in size. Therefore, there should be only one species of the Deta people.

"It's a bit strange. The skeletons of these Deta people look very complete. They don't seem to have experienced a large-scale offensive and defensive battle. Moreover, these skeletons are scattered in the hall, not concentrated in a certain corner. This is It also seems a bit strange, because it stands to reason that after these Deta people realize that the Dak bugs have invaded the city, the Deta people who can leave the hospital will definitely choose to leave, and those Deta people who cannot leave should also They stayed in some corner rooms and resisted."

Zakarenv squatted down and continued: "And there was not much blood next to these skeletons. At the same time, their heads were also facing different directions. It seemed that they had encountered a sudden attack. Everyone didn't turn around and just turned around. Death."

"This is unlikely. Since the Deta people have counterattacked one of the Dak bug people's war machines, it means that the Deta people have discovered that the Dak bug people are preparing to attack them, so the residents in the city should know that outside situation; however, the chairs placed in the hall did not move much, which also shows that when these Delta people had an accident, there was no chaos in the hospital and everything was as usual." Liu Xing continued.

"So what's going on with the Delta people in this hospital?" Li Mengyao frowned and said, "By the way, we haven't encountered the bones of the Delta people along the way, which seems a bit abnormal. ...Well, it suddenly occurred to me that these Deltas can fly, so it’s normal that there aren’t their skeletons on the streets.”

"Then let's continue the investigation. The clues we know are not enough for us to speculate on what happened to these Delta people. However, I always feel that this hospital is a bit abnormal. It seems that some mysterious power is still affecting it. Keep this hospital.”

As soon as Elizabeth said this, the expressions of Liu Xing and others became nervous, because Elizabeth, as a demon doll, is very sensitive to fluctuations in mana, so it was precisely because Elizabeth was accompanying Liu Xing and others that they did not take it seriously. Taketori called back to suppress the formation.

"Wait, there seems to be something wrong with these corpses?"

Zakarenv suddenly said: "Their temperature is much lower than the room temperature and the temperature of the ground. This is very abnormal!"

"What, how is this possible? Logically speaking, in a closed area like this, the temperature of everything inside should be about the same."

As Norton spoke, he touched the skeletons of several Delta people nearby, "Yes, the temperature of these skeletons is indeed abnormal, but there seems to be nothing on them that can affect their body temperature, so this It is very likely related to their sudden death, is it some kind of large-scale ice spell?"

"No, if it is an ice spell, it is impossible for the skeletons of these Deta people to remain so intact, not to mention that the Dak bug people's magical attainments are infinitely close to zero, except for a few types of Dak bug people that can be used In addition to some ordinary spells, other types of Darkworms can only fight in other ways." Elizabeth said seriously.

Norton stood up and nodded: "Okay, now there is a question before us, that is, should we continue to investigate this matter? If not, let's go to the next place."

As soon as Norton said this, kp Kongjing stood up and said: "Now all the players present are asked to choose. Should you continue to investigate the cause of death of these Delta people? Or go to the next area for exploration? If you choose to continue the investigation, it will open A side mission, and if you choose to go to the next area, the optional mission in the next area will definitely be triggered, so this is a choose-one mission."

kp Kongjing's words made Liu Xing and others look at each other in confusion, because there are currently too few clues about this side mission, and it is impossible to analyze what the content of this side mission will be. But the problem is that Liu Xing and others are more I don’t know what kind of tasks I will face in the next area. . .

Therefore, choosing the lesser of two evils, Liu Xing and others chose to continue the investigation after hesitating for a moment.

"Let's figure out the situation here first. I think the situation in other places may be similar to here, so let's not run around first." Liu Xing said.

Norton nodded, looked at the second floor and said: "It seems there is nothing to see on this floor, so let's go up to the second floor and continue the investigation."

Liu Xing looked at the situation on the first floor and agreed very much with Norton's statement, because there was nothing noteworthy on this floor.

After arriving on the second floor, there was not much difference between the Deta people on the ground and the Deta people on the first floor. They still seemed to have encountered some emergency, so a group of people suddenly disappeared, but Liu Xing noticed that there was one The Delta man leaning against the wall held a small bottle tightly in his hand. The small bottle looked like it was made of some kind of metal because it was rusty.

"This bottle is interesting."

Norton stepped forward, picked up the bottle and said, "If I guessed correctly, this should be a synthetic metal called stainless iron. This synthetic metal is found in many ruins in South America. It looks like The formula of this synthetic metal was an open secret at the time, or it had a common manufacturer; but although this stainless iron sounds like it will not rust, as we see now, this Stainless iron will still rust, and of course the only thing that can make it rust is not water, but the influence of mental spells. In other words, the magic fluctuations of mental spells will affect the internal structure of stainless steel."

Speaking of this, Norton suddenly frowned, "In this way, we can roughly determine that a large-scale spiritual spell enveloped this hospital, causing everyone in the hospital to be affected by it, and in the end, all the people in the hospital were completely destroyed. The ground passed away, and according to Elizabeth's perception, the source of this mental spell should still be in the hospital, and may be in a state of being released from dormancy at any time. This is not good news for us, so we'd better stay as we are. Return the road to avoid following in the footsteps of these Deta people.”

Hearing what Norton said, Liu Xing and others knew that this matter would be difficult to handle, because if nothing unexpected happened, they would not have time to leave the hospital. . .

At this moment, Liu Xing felt a flash of white light in front of his eyes, and found that his eyes suddenly became brighter, and creatures like giant geese appeared in front of him.

Is this a Delta person?

Liu Xing looked around subconsciously and found that Zhang Jingxu and others were also looking around in confusion.

Fortunately, everyone is here, except Elizabeth, who is a golem.

Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a low voice: "What is going on?"

The well-informed Norton replied: "Obviously, we were pulled into a spiritual space by some mysterious force. In other words, our souls should be out of body now, and Elizabeth, as a golem, has no real soul, so she did not appear here... However, the Delta people around us ignored us, which means that these Delta people may just be fictitious NPCs in this spiritual space."

Hearing the NPC Norton mention "NPC", Liu Xing felt that this was a bit subtle.

"Fortunately, Elizabeth stayed in the real world. I think after she discovered our anomaly, she would investigate what it was that pulled us into this mental space, so we just need to calm down and wait for Elizabeth to rescue us."

As soon as Norton said this, the kp empty mirror appeared, "Now all players only need to persist in this mental space for half an hour, and they will be able to escape safely and successfully complete this side mission - Soul Out of Body. At that time, the value of the player's will attribute will be increased by five points. Of course, if the players fail to persist until Elizabeth rescues you, then the players may remain trapped in this mental space. In other words, they will be torn apart. stuck."

As soon as kp Kongjing finished speaking, a countdown appeared in front of Liu Xing's eyes. There were only twenty-nine minutes left.

However, Liu Xing knew very well that in a task with a countdown like this, the difficulty always lies in the last few minutes.

"It's raining."

I don't know who said it at this time, and Liu Xing saw drizzle suddenly falling outside the hospital, but the rain turned out to be black.

"There's something wrong with this rain."

In fact, there was no need for Liu Xing to speak. Everyone present knew that the sudden rain must have caused problems, and the problems were huge.

"Everyone, please be careful and never approach the doors or windows of the hospital to avoid exposure to rain." Norton said affirmatively.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xing remembered a very classic module - don't get wet. The point of this module is that players cannot come into contact with rain. As long as they come into contact with rain, they will start to accumulate moisture values. When this value After reaching a certain value, the player or NPC will transform into a special mythical creature-Rain Man.

The mythical creature Rain Man is very special. It can transform into Rain Man by contacting other NPCs and players. Therefore, when Rain Man appears in this module, the entire game will become a hide-and-seek game.

Of course, Rain Man cannot move around casually, it can only move through places with rain.

Could this be a variant of the Rain Man module?

It shouldn't be possible.

Liu Xing recalled it and found that although this building has many windows, these windows are relatively small, so even if the windows are open, the rain outside will not come in much, so at most, some small pools can be formed. These small pools It can barely affect the movement of one's own group. As long as one pays attention, there is no threat.

Therefore, these rains should only restrict themselves and their group from leaving the hospital.

"If nothing else, I think we should go upstairs, because the reason why we were brought into this spiritual space is because something is still working upstairs, so we should be able to find this thing up there now Projection in the spiritual world.”

As soon as Ricky finished speaking, the drizzle outside suddenly became heavier.

"Is this a countdown?"

Liu Xingming asked knowingly: "If I'm not wrong, this shower is a countdown. When the rain reaches the level of a heavy rain, then we will become as cold as those Delta people, so we can only wait for Elizabeth In addition to saving us, we must also find a way to save ourselves."

"Yes, it's better to ask for help than to ask for help from others. We must find a way to protect ourselves. Expecting Elizabeth to save us is just the last chance."

Norton looked at the third floor and continued: "Let's go up and have a look!"

As soon as Norton said this, the surrounding Delta people suddenly looked out the window, specifically in the direction of the entrance to the hospital.

somebody is coming?

Liu Xing and others also looked at the door of the hospital and found that a cockroach-like Dak bug entered the hospital, but the Delta people next to him turned a blind eye to him.

"What's going on? Why are those Deta people just looking at this Dak bug? Is it because the Deta people in this mental space can't make complex reactions?" Liu Xing said doubtfully.

At this time, the Deta people withdrew their gaze and continued to go about their own business, while the Dark bug man stood motionless next to the door as if he had been under a restraining spell.

"It's getting weirder and weirder."

Norton touched his chin and said, "I have been traveling around for so many years and have seen a lot of strange things, but I have never seen anything like this before, because it has no logic at all."

Yes, there is no logic in this at all.

If the hospital and the Delta people inside are the background and props on a stage, then there is no reason at all for the sudden heavy rain and the appearance of this Dak bug man. . . Okay, this sudden heavy rain may be in line with the climate and environment of that year, but as the enemy of the Delta people, why did this Dak bug appear so openly?

Moreover, neither the Deta nor the Dak bugs made any further moves.

"Perhaps this is to waste our time? Let us focus our energy on these inexplicable places, so that we will not have enough time to find a way out of here?"

Yin En said seriously: "So we can't follow the changes in this mental space, we must firmly follow our original ideas!"

"You're right, let's go up to the third floor and have a look now, but now we have to leave two people to keep an eye on the Dakworm, because it is the most inconsistent existence in this mental space, so we We must know its next move as soon as possible." Norton said seriously.

So, in the end, Zakarenfu's two remaining companions were responsible for monitoring the Dak bug man, while the others walked up to the third floor.
