Real Cthulhu Running Game

"Perhaps this Luoshan is a huge foreshadowing. Unfortunately, Liu Qindong has fallen off before, and you have become a Star Color. So I am actually very curious about one thing, that is, as an incorporeal Star Color The mythical creature, Mobius, how do you feel when you move it?" Liu Xing asked curiously.

After Mobius pondered for a moment, he answered: "This question is a good one, because I don't know how to describe how I feel now. After all, as you said, Liu Xing, the Star Cai is an incorporeal mythical creature, and I was an ordinary person before, so after I turned into Star Cai, it was a bit like playing an FPS game, except that the mouse sensitivity was maxed out, so as long as my mind moved, I would I had to move to the side, but I ended up flying thousands of miles away; but now that it has been so long, I have adapted to this feeling. Basically, I can make my heart move and take action, but I still can't do it. Move accurately to the meter."

"Besides that, I can actually control my own color so that I don't look like a marquee in a closed space, but it takes a lot of brain power and I have to keep thinking about what my color should look like. Of course, I can also control my general shape. For example, if I fly normally, I will look like a long flag fluttering in the wind, but if I want, I can also turn into a sphere, or even a triangle; then again Now I feel that after becoming Star Color, I spend more energy every day than I did during the sprint stage of the college entrance examination."

Liu Xing smiled, nodded and said: "That's true. Since there is no physical loss, we can only make up for it mentally. So what kind of module did Liu Qindong encounter at that time, so he chose to fall off directly? For the players in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, falling off is equivalent to the player voluntarily giving up the module, and they actively chose to give up before the module fell into a deadlock. After all, there are still many requirements for falling off. You can’t just leave if you want to.”

"Yes, I also thought about this after I came to the real world, because I also thought it was a bit strange that Liu Qindong chose to leave at that time. The reason is that the difficulty of that module was quite satisfactory, and the few passers-by players who were matched were also It's pretty good, at least there's no obvious trap for teammates, and the module should be about halfway through at that time, which means players have collected enough information and are ready to start the next stage - discussing and deciding on the BOSS in this module. Who is it, and then how to deal with this BOSS and how to clear the module?"

Mobius said seriously: "Based on the time we met in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, about a year ago it was the module that Liu Qindong chose to shed, and I was already experienced at that time. I have seen a lot in a hundred battles. I have basically encountered all the common mythical creatures, and I have also dealt with most of them, because I had joined a special organization at that time - the special exchange forum. This special exchange forum was in On the surface it is an ordinary online forum, and the content of the discussion is mainly about various supernatural events, but most of the posts are fictional stories, but when you mention real mythical creatures or secret churches , the forum management will ask you if you want to become a formal member of the forum."

"Well, I seem to have heard of such an organization, which uses secret codes on the Internet to continuously recruit new members. However, most of these organizations are divided into two types, or they are very loose and are just online for members to exchange information. A forum, or a formal organization that involves offline activities." Liu Xing said curiously: "So the forum you mentioned, Mobius, is the latter, right?"

"That's right, this special exchange forum can actually be renamed the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, because its operating mechanism is similar to the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, except that forum members can choose whether to accept tasks. If everything goes well, If you complete the task, you can get the so-called mythical coins of this forum, which can not only be exchanged for various physical rewards, but also you can post tasks in the forum and let other players help you." Mobius said with a smile.

Liu Xing also grinned and said: "This is indeed quite like the Cthulhu Running Game Hall, so it seems that this forum was probably founded by a certain player, because the Cthulhu Running Game Hall should not be Will create such a forum that competes with him for business; if nothing else, when Liu Qindong enters the interlude and grows up, he should choose whether to accept the tasks posted by this forum? Then this forum is quite good for players , because you can know in advance what kind of mod you will do.”

"That's right, Liu Qindong's modding before he fell off was quite smooth, because the tasks he accepted from the forum basically had detailed pre-briefings, so he had almost figured out the details at the beginning of the modding. You can already start making corresponding preparations, not to mention that the tasks provided by this forum are basically that there may be a certain mythical creature in a certain place, or there is a certain secret that is causing trouble, so players can choose as long as they find definite evidence. After retreating, the next matter can be handed over to the senior members of the forum! Yes, the official members of this forum are really just a group of investigators, responsible for confirming the authenticity of the mission briefing, and then they can let the action team Senior members take action.”

"And if I remember correctly, this forum is also a cooperative relationship with Huaxia Daomen, so it will help Huaxia Daomen deal with some simple problems, or conduct investigations for Huaxia Daomen. After all, there are too many people staring at Huaxia Daomen. That's why the Huaxia Dao Sect needs some informants to help; however, this forum does not accept members of the Hua Xia Dao Sect to join, and it will not have too much contact with the Hua Xia Dao Sect, so other forces will not be too targeted towards it... and The core members of this forum only operate in virtual networks, and it is difficult for others to identify who they are, let alone cause trouble for them."

Mobius paused and said with some admiration: "But the props provided by this forum are quite large in terms of quantity and type, so I don't know who the core members of this forum are, and how come there are so many. Props can be taken out as rewards. You must know that the myth coins required to exchange these props are not too much. Generally speaking, you can redeem a good prop after completing two or three modules, such as a handful that can be put into the gap between time and space. The dagger, this thing is really not easy to use, just put it in the space-time gap in a place in advance, and then when necessary, you can perform a show of using your bare hands to turn it into a white blade, catching your opponent by surprise."

"By the way, Liu Qindong left behind a lot of props after he fell off, and I ended up putting them all in my rental house. If I remember correctly, I paid the rent for about a year at that time, so in the game If it has not been more than a year, then Liu Xing, you can go to my rental house to find these props. I will send you the address and landlord’s phone number later on my mobile phone. If you really want to go, call the landlord. I made a phone call and said that something happened to me now, so you just came to help me pack my things."

Mobius's words made Liu Xing feel happy. After all, players in the Cthulhu Run game lobby would never dislike having too many props, no matter how weird some props looked. Accept them one by one, because no one knows when these props will play an unexpected role.

"Back to the previous topic, Liu Qindong took a mission and went to Yangcheng. The information provided by the forum at that time was that there might be a problem with a car repair shop in the suburbs of Yangcheng. If you went to repair your car in the evening, you might encounter something unexpected. , and if you find this repair shop to tow a car at night due to vehicle failure, you may still have the car but the person is gone. Judging from the information provided by the forum, this module is actually not too difficult. Because the mission target is limited to that auto repair shop, and we already know how these potential enemies attack. They just see that you are weak, and then either attack directly or secretly attack."

Hearing this, Liu Xing couldn't help but interjected: "If this mission is just like this, it would be a bit too simple, because to deal with these enemies, just do the opposite, set a trap and then call them over to surrender." A trap will do. Of course, these enemies may be difficult to deal with, so we just need to arrange some people in advance to help them and force these enemies to give up in the end. This can be regarded as confirming that there is really a problem in this auto repair shop; but the point is still this It doesn’t fit the style of the Cthulhu Run game lobby. Generally speaking, as long as you are not a player in the lowest area, the module will not be so straightforward and you can see the beginning at a glance.”

"Yes, Liu Qindong and his teammates thought the same way at the time."

Mobius sighed and said: "Let me mention one more thing here, that is, I can now recall what Liu Qindong and the others said when they opened the secret room time, so I remember that Liu Qindong and the others felt that this car maintenance The factory may not be as simple as it seems on the surface. You must know that although this car repair shop is located in the suburbs, there are several residential areas around it, which can be regarded as a prosperous area in the suburbs. Therefore, it is directly in the factory building, which is eight connected Doing it in a street-facing shop is not a good option.”

"So, Liu Qindong and others first tried to send one person to repair the car in the evening, while the others ate at a restaurant opposite. Of course, they focused on the repair shop opposite, but the one who came to the door The man was safe and sound, even though he took the initiative to walk into the blind spot; at first everyone thought that this was because they were lucky and did not become the target of this car repair shop. As a result, Liu Qindong and others tried several times but the result was the same. As a result, this caused everyone to be confused. After all, this is seriously inconsistent with the information provided by the mission, and everything in the car repair shop was normal during this period, with nothing unusual."

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and immediately put forward his idea, "If I guessed correctly, this task should have been posted by a formal member of the forum, right?"

"Liu Xing, you answered correctly. This task was indeed issued by a formal member. The reason why he issued this task was that a relative of his disappeared because of this car repair shop. Then he conducted a simple investigation Later, he discovered that the car repair shop had a huge problem that he could no longer handle alone, so he posted the task on the forum; he originally planned to act together with Liu Qindong and others who accepted the task, but as a result, the module just failed At the beginning, he said that he had something to do at home, and it might take some time before he could come over to join Liu Qindong and others."

Mobius sighed again and said somewhat depressedly: "So at this time, Liu Qindong and others began to suspect that this so-called companion who had not yet shown up was a liar who tricked them into investigating a car repair shop with no problems. , but Liu Qindong and the others couldn't figure out why. You must know that posting such a prank mission will be punished, not to mention that people who can become official members of the forum are unlikely to do such pranks; after doing it again After the investigation, Liu Qindong and others collected some strange information. For example, this car repair shop said it had eight facades, but except for the first facade which was used to entertain customers, the other seven facades could be used for repairing and washing cars. Yes, but the staff responsible for guiding them never let those vehicles directly enter the fifth facade."

"Rules module?"

Liu Xing said subconsciously: "Although most of the modules in the Cthulhu Run game lobby will involve mythical creatures or secret churches, so players need to deal with these guys head-on. To put it simply, they will give you A visible and tangible enemy; but there are also some special modules that do not have enemies in the conventional sense, but you have to make inferences based on existing clues, or some weird clues. Then use your reasoning results to advance the process of the module, otherwise the module will never end, but you must abide by some rules during the advancement process, otherwise you don’t know how you will die.”

"That's right, the requirements for clearing this module are very simple, that is to find out the problem with this car repair shop. Of course, some players have asked kp a question, that is, it is impossible for this car repair shop to have no problems, and kp gave The answer is yes," Mobius replied.
