Real Cthulhu Running Game

"Um, are you the noble person that kp calls you?"

David started the secret room time directly, looked at Liu Xing and said: "The three of us are friends in the real world, so you should be the noble person mentioned by kp, right? Are you a senior player in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall? "

Because the character card "Tom" is from America, the English spoken by David was directly translated into Chinese after passing through Liu Xing's ears. However, Liu Xing could vaguely hear some strange sounds, but this sound It was so low in decibels that Liu Xing could only feel the presence of the sound, but could not hear what the sound was "saying" at all.

tinnitus?

Liu Xing also encountered a patient with tinnitus when he was an intern in the hospital. However, this patient said that he always felt sounds in his ears, but they were all irregular noises that made people feel upset.

"Sir? Madam? Or?"

Seeing that Liu Xing was a little distracted, David had no choice but to ask again. To be on the safe side, he also asked about Liu Xing’s true gender, because at this time, America, you can’t assume from the beginning that someone else is a boy or a girl. still. . . Well, there are so many commonly used genders for America nowadays, so I won’t give examples here.

After being asked by David, Liu Xing came back to his senses and said: "Ah, there seems to be something wrong with my character card, so I was a little distracted just now. If nothing else happens, I should be Mr. Unless my character card There are some things I don’t know; I am indeed a veteran player in the Cthulhu Run game lobby. I used this new character card today because of something else, but I didn’t expect to be matched with you. Together, after all, this must be your first official mod, right?"

"That's right, it's the first time for us to do official modding, because if we don't do modding today, we will be punished, so we have to turn on the modding."

David said with some joy: "We barely passed the novice module, so we really didn't dare to open the official module, because no one wants to die like this, but fortunately, sir, uh, sir, what do you do? Title? Since this is not your initial character card, then your name should not be Tom, right?"

"You can also call me Tom, because I've had that name before, and of course you can call me Gary."

Liu Xing does not intend to tell these strangers his true situation, because no matter whether the module can pass smoothly this time, Liu Xing will probably never use this character card again. After all, this character card is too stretched. Sorry, I can't even see it anymore.

However, Liu Xing is still curious about the curse that comes with this character card? Because from the background of the character, "Tom" should be an ordinary person, so why was he suddenly cursed when he was a child? You must know that even in the world under the background of the Cthulhu mythology, curses are considered a rarity. For example, Liu Xing has only encountered a curse once after conducting so many mods. Of course, if the prop effect of that pair of embroidered shoes is If it is also regarded as a curse, then it is twice.

Moreover, the curse can also be understood as a directional spell, so there should be no possibility of accidental injury. That is to say, if someone specifically uses the curse on ordinary people like "Tom", then this person is related to "Tom" or "Tom" How much hatred does one family have? To be so cruel to a child? Moreover, Liu Xing did not see any problems with his parents from "Tom's" memory.

This is a bit unreasonable, right? Who has the ability not to deal directly with adults, but with children?

Wait, quantum mechanics?

Liu Xing took a look at his character card, which only had 60 points of intelligence. Logically speaking, it was unlikely that he would have such high achievements in quantum mechanics, so there was only one possibility now!

Yog-Sothoth!

Yes, "Tom" may have witnessed the arrival of Yog-Sothoth, so he obtained knowledge of quantum mechanics from Yog-Sothoth. However, due to limited intelligence, it was not until "Tom" came into contact with quantum mechanics that Only when I read the books did I recall this knowledge from my mind.

However, there is no free lunch in this world, so "Tom" was conveniently cursed by Yog-Sothoth.

This is interesting.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing suddenly became interested in this character card again.

"Then let's call you Tom, because we are all new to the Cthulhu Run game, so if we call you Gary, Mr. Tom, we are a little worried that we will overplay the game." David said seriously.

"No problem, then call me Tom, and don't call me husband. In fact, the age difference between you and me is not much."

Because he became interested in "Tom", Liu Xing felt that he still needed to clear this module. If he had time in the future, he would use this character card to pass the module several times, so Liu Xing decided to take up the responsibility of this module. The responsibility of command.

"So if you don't mind, then I will be the conductor of this module, right? However, the values ​​of my character card are a bit stretched, so you will be responsible for the judgment, right?"

As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, David and the other three nodded in agreement.

Liu Xing was very satisfied with this, so he smiled and said: "First of all, the main mission of this module is to survive until six o'clock tomorrow morning, and now we are trapped on a small island. It seems that there is no way We left the island early, so if the enemies in this module are not deep divers, they should already be on the island, so we have to pay attention to all the NPCs we meet later, because they may become Our enemies! And this island is quite big. There are twenty villas for tourists alone, plus a comprehensive visitor center. Logically speaking, if we play hide-and-seek, as long as the enemy doesn’t If you cheat, it’s easy to hide until the end of time. After all, this is just a module for the ghoul area, and the number of enemies should not exceed three.”

"So if nothing else happens, I think the weather will change soon, which is a big storm! Then we will have to choose whether to go to the visitor center or stay in a villa. In short, we will not be able to go outside. Move at will, so that we are forced to stay in a small range with the enemy, so we have to prepare some self-defense things in advance; modules like this generally do not have such strong mythical creatures, so the four of us Individuals should be able to defeat him or it, and of course if we can unite with other NPCs, the winning rate will be very high."

As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, he saw continuous dark clouds appearing in the distance.

Sure enough, a big storm is coming.

As for the three Davids, when they saw the dark clouds in the distance, they looked at Liu Xing with admiration.

Liu Xing's vanity was instantly satisfied.

"Ahem, we should go back and make preparations now. It looks like someone will make an announcement soon asking us to gather at the visitor center, so..."

Before Liu Xing finished speaking this time, a middle-aged man started to announce on the radio, "Please note to all tourists on the island, according to the notification from the Meteorological Bureau, a twelve-hour firestorm is about to begin near Moon Island. There is a big storm, so all tourists are asked to take refuge at the visitor center as soon as possible to avoid accidents!”

Sure enough.

Faced with a module of this level, Liu Xing thought he could completely see through it.

"Tom, are we going to the visitor center?" Philip asked quickly.

"go."

Liu Xing said without hesitation: "In low-level modules, it is best for players to follow the plot line, because modules of this level are typical linear modules, which is what we often call The road leads to darkness, so we'd better go to the visitor center to find out; if we choose to stay in a certain villa, then although we may not need to face the enemy head-on, there is a high probability that we will be caught in the plot Kill because a big storm like this could destroy the villa."

Liu Xing often saw that every time a storm passed through America, many houses were razed to the ground.

"Yeah, let's go to the visitor center, right? But don't we have time to go back to our villa to get things?" David asked.

"There is plenty of time, as long as it doesn't take too long."

Liu Xing looked at the dark clouds on the horizon, shook his head and said, "These clouds are moving very slowly. We should have time to go back and get something, but don't bring anything too obvious for self-defense, because..."

Before Liu Xing finished speaking, kp004 suddenly said: "The time for this secret room has ended. Please play your role well and please do not overplay."

Liu Xing quickly changed the topic and continued: "Brothers, let's go back and get some things right now and go to the visitor center? If this storm blows up our villa, then all the things we brought will have to be Flying to the sea."

"Yeah yeah."

David and the other three agreed.

After returning to the villa, Liu Xing pretended to look for something in his room, and kp004 came to the door as expected.

"Hey, long time no see. I didn't expect you, Liu Xing, to be promoted to the Cthulhu area so quickly, but why are you playing with white character cards?" kp004 asked curiously.

Liu Xing smiled and replied: "Isn't this the martial arts module about to start? So in order to avoid triggering some modules that take too long to prevent me from participating in the martial arts module, I used this white character card A game started; I originally planned to find an opportunity to leave after entering the module, but I didn't expect to be matched with three novice players, so now in order to avoid harming them, I can only go all out, but What's going on? Logically speaking, I shouldn't be matched with novice players, right?"

Faced with Liu Xing's question, kp004 smiled directly and said: "Since you have already thought of using a white character card to offset the minimum requirement of playing a mod every month, other players will naturally do the same, so... After the lottery started, thousands of players have used white character cards to make modules, so it is normal to have some minor problems, or it would be strange if there were no problems; but for a player of Liu Xing's level, No matter what kind of module it is, there is no pressure, right? After all, you have almost guessed the plot line of this module now."

"Of course. If I can't guess this, then I'm not qualified to stay in the Cthulhu area."

Liu Xing replied confidently: "But then again, this module seems to have some pitfalls. The first official module I participated in took place in an old castle, and this time it was in a tourist In the center, the size gap between the two is a bit big, isn’t it? There will be no place to run if you want to."

"Hehe, I don't believe Liu Xing that you didn't guess who the villain in this module is." kp004 said unceremoniously: "So Liu Xing, you don't have to pretend, you must already know that the villain in this module won't be Is it a mythical creature?"

"Hey hey hey."

Just when Liu Xing was about to say something more, kp004 said first: "By the way Liu Xing, you still have to let the other three players have some gaming experience. Don't let them become your puppets, lest they get into the next module. Don’t know how to play.”

"No problem. As long as I don't have to do anything, I won't stand up and do anything." Liu Xing nodded.

At this time, David and the other three had already picked up their things, so Liu Xing casually took a folding fruit knife and went out.

But Liu Xing didn't know at this time that the kp004 he was talking to was not the real kp004.

"Ao Guanhai, are you sure you really want to do this?"

In the clouds above Moon Island, Ao Guanhai and Black Pharaoh were sitting cross-legged opposite each other.

"why not?"

Ao Guanhai said leisurely: "I'm just doing an experiment. Anyway, these modules are not really sealed. It doesn't matter if they are taken out and used now. Besides, it has been so long and there is no one there yet." The trouble they come to us shows that they don’t care about this either.”

"That's true, but I'm still a little worried."

The Black Pharaoh frowned and said: "This module is the first module created by the Cthulhu Run Team Game Hall. Many secrets hidden in it have not been found out by us yet. How dare you let Liu Xing, a real person, .When the closed beta players come in and take a look around, aren’t you afraid that they will suddenly think of something?”

"Of course I'm not afraid, or maybe I want him to recall some things, because even we don't know much about the first closed beta that year. Apart from the last few mods that happened, we also know What was going on with the previous modules, but I didn’t know what those players went through in the modules, so I thought about letting Liu Xing go in and have a look around to see if he could help us find something interesting.”

At this point, Ao Guanhai's expression became serious, "I'm sure that there are definitely things hidden in these seemingly ordinary modules that can change the Cthulhu Run Game Hall!"
