Real Cthulhu Running Game

"That's psy in the Greek alphabet, right?"

A player came over and said: "When I was studying, I deliberately memorized the Greek letters in order to pretend to be a cultured person, so I remember that this trident should be the second-to-last Pusa in the Greek letters."

Greek letters again?

"This is a bit interesting. Didn't we confirm that there was a group of mysterious people passing through Sweetwater Town with a box? As a result, Sweetwater Town was burned to the ground the next day, and this group of people had a letter on their body that seemed to be a Greek letter - Epp The mark of Shillong; now another token with the mark of Pousse has appeared, which means that this group of mysterious people should use Greek letters to distinguish their identities."

Liu Xing looked at the token and continued: "According to the memory of my character card, there should be no city-state called Greece or anything related to Greece in this module, so these Greek letters are treated as a set of ordinary To use custom symbols, it means that the Cthulhu Run game lobby is being lazy; so the mysterious people who use this set of symbols should still be from the New Dragon Empire, and will not interact with others..."

Before Liu Xing finished speaking, Ding Kun interrupted directly: "Alliance leader, please don't forget that in addition to various princes, the optional forces in this module also include tribal vassal states located near the New Dragon Empire. To choose from, there might be a certain tribal vassal state that uses Greek letters! And these have already used tokens, which means that the organization of this group of mysterious people is no longer simple, and it is definitely not some kittens. three."

Liu Xing thought for a while, nodded and said: "It is indeed possible, but this is the territory of the third prince, and it is the hinterland of the New Dragon Empire, so what are these mysterious people doing here? Of course the most important thing is Or why did this token fall here? Logically speaking, tokens like this are very important, because in this era without fingerprint authentication, it can be said that the token is recognized but not the person, so the owner of this token should not Just throw it away casually?"

"So our previous guess may have been wrong. The mysterious man's box was not filled with alcoholic monkeys, but other messy things. Therefore, they were just passing by; it turned out that the box may have been filled with alcohol. Orangutan, or maybe another ordinary monkey took the token by chance, so that group of mysterious people burned down Sweetwater Town in order to silence them! Because this token is so important , if someone who knows the goods sees it, then this group of mysterious people will be in disaster."

"Well, then we will give this token to Yu Lei later. I think Yu Lei should know who would use this token."

As Liu Xing spoke, he felt the weight of the token and found that its material was ordinary copper or iron.

"So we can stop looking for the scabbard now, but we must arrange for manpower to dig this hole to see if there are any other important things inside."

Ding Kun named someone at random and continued: "You should go find the captain of today's logging team and ask him to arrange for a few people to come over with tools to dig the soil. Of course, it is best to find some more careful people to help."

The man nodded, turned and left.

Today's logging team has been divided into several teams and has started logging in three shifts. After all, the players who join the logging team are part-time, so they can't be allowed to chop down trees all day long, right? Therefore, the logging team also has several captains, who rotate every day.

"When there are enough NPCs in Sweetwater Town, we can have a fixed logging team."

Baihecheng looked at Liu Xing and suddenly asked curiously: "By the way, Alliance Leader, do we want to change the name of Tianshui Town? Because Tianshui Town has long become history, so we are starting from scratch, and it is not easy to start again. Will you continue to use the name Sweetwater Town?"

"Lao Bai is right. When we come into contact with other forces in the future, we can't call ourselves Sweetwater Town, right?" Ding Kun nodded.

Liu Xing nodded, touched his chin and said: "You are all right. We really can't call ourselves Tianshui Town, so we have to arrange a new name for ourselves! But I remember that I didn't let you know before I left. Did you vote for a suitable name? Why hasn’t anyone informed me of the outcome of this matter yet?”

Baihecheng looked at Liu Xing with some embarrassment, shook his head and said: "There is such a thing, but the problem is that the names we chose at the time can no longer keep up with the version, because we did not expect that your interview plan, leader, would be It was so successful that the names we got were in the format of So-and-Such Temple and So-and-Such Mountain; so looking back now, we were not generous enough to get these names. From the outside, we just looked like a small family, so we are in the alliance leader, you go and have a rest. We discussed it again and decided to give it a more grand title."

"Huh? I think it's okay to call it Canglong Temple or Canglong Mountain, right? Does this mean that we are the spokesperson of Canglong in the East Palace?" Liu Xing said doubtfully.

"No, no, no, leader, you are wrong to think so, because now our alliance does not only accept players, but even NPCs can join! Especially after you, leader, have been recognized by the third prince, we can be fair and honest. Recruit NPCs to join our ranks! Therefore, if it is still called Canglong Temple or Canglong Mountain, outsiders will sound a bit like a sect rather than a force, and such a name is not very recognizable, which will have an impact on our recruitment. ." Ding Kun said seriously.

Liu Xing nodded sharply without realizing it.

"Then leader, please go back with Lao Ding now. I will inform you if there is anything new."

Ding Kun glanced at the position of the sun and continued: "There will be many NPCs coming to join us today, and the Lao Bai family will continue to send a group of cattle and sheep, so you have to go back and take charge of the overall situation, so I will be in charge here. Bar."

"Okay then, I'll take the iron sword and token back first."

Liu Xing put the token into his pocket, then went back to Baihe City with the iron sword in hand.

When leaving the woods, Liu Xing felt that the iron sword in his hand suddenly became unremarkable, and even felt a bit awkward to hold.

As a result, when Liu Xing returned to Juyi Hall, the iron sword had rusted again and looked almost like an iron rod.

"It's interesting. It seems that if this iron sword cannot stay near the scabbard, it will turn into scrap metal."

Liu Xing put the iron sword on the table and said to Meng Fugui, who was counting the inventory: "Shopkeeper Meng, by the way, the name of our alliance hasn't been decided yet?"

Meng Fugui nodded and gave similar reasons to those given by Ding and Kun.

"Since the Third Prince has given us the opportunity to become bigger and stronger, we cannot let our name hold us back."

Meng Fugui said seriously: "During the two days when you, leader, are resting, we have been arranging for everyone to rename themselves. We have already circled a few names, and we are just waiting for the time to vote in these two days; but, we are a little worried now. The third prince will bestow the name, and then all your work will be in vain. After all, we must give this face to the third prince."

Liu Xing thought for a while and felt that this made sense, "Then let's take this matter slowly. After the third prince's reward is delivered, we will know whether the third prince will give us a name... "

"The plaque with the name is already on the way."

Before Liu Xing finished speaking, Yu Lei's voice suddenly sounded at the door, "The reward for the third prince is already on the way. If there are no accidents along the way, it should arrive in Tianshui Town the day after tomorrow."

Looking at Yu Lei with obvious dark circles under his eyes, Liu Xing smiled and teased: "Brother Yu, what's wrong with you? You have to have a certain temper when working day and night."

Yu Lei slapped him, shook his head and said, "It's not like you don't know what I've been busy with these two days! I stayed all night near the City Lord's Mansion last night, and I found some interesting things, such as Guo Er's Secret Meeting I met the old head of Zhangjiamen. You must know that this old head is very good at martial arts. He noticed my presence at a glance after getting out of the car."

The old head of Zhangjiamen? Isn't that half of Zhang Jingxu's master?

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and asked quickly: "Brother Yu, this old master is the master of a good friend of mine. Although he has not yet performed the apprenticeship ceremony, he has already learned several kung fu moves from the old master, so Is there anything wrong with the old boss?"

Yu Lei said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's normal for Guo Er to find the old leader, because although the old leader has not been involved in worldly affairs for many years, he is still the number one master in Boyang City no matter what, so in the Jianghu This area is still very prestigious, so Guo Er also needs the old leader to stand up for him; and I am sure that the old leader recognized my identity, so he gave me a secret code, and the meaning of this code is also It's very simple, that is, he has his own sense of proportion! By the way, the old master and my master have a very good relationship. We traveled together for many years when we were young, and I am actually one of his nominal disciples."

As Yu Lei said this, he walked once more.

"Yu Bu is also a general training method for Qing Gong, which allows you to dodge better! But Yu Bu looks easy, but it is difficult to master it. Without the guidance of an expert, you will appear very stiff. Be as smart as me."

Yu Lei continued: "So I studied with the old master for a few days a few years ago. It really benefited me a lot. Qinggong went to the next level! Therefore, I will give it to the old master every year and festival." Order gifts; I went to see the old leader early this morning, and the result was pretty much what I expected. Guo Er just wanted him to give him a platform to ensure that all the major sects in Boyang City recognized his position as the city leader. Moreover, the old master also inquired about Guo Er’s origins and discovered that he may be a descendant of the first city lord of Boyang City.”

"Huh? I remember Boyang City's Zhen. Isn't the first city lord extinct?"

Meng Fugui, who was listening in the audience, frowned and said: "I remember that the first city lord was very brave and fierce when he was young. He had a conflict with others and injured his vitals, so he never had any heirs. So he didn't have any heirs after the establishment of Boyang City. After serving as the city lord for a month, he abdicated the throne, and the reason was that he did not have a suitable successor, so he was worried that if something happened to him suddenly, the next city lord might be elected in a less than honorable way; so now we are talking about Daobo The first city lord of Yangcheng usually does not count this person, and he did disappear during a battle that year and was thought to have fallen among the rebels."

"Yes, the old master got the news that Guo Er is related to the city lord by blood, so the sect masters and elders of Feishimen all support Guo Er as the city lord! This can be regarded as worthy of Guo Er's ancestor; and Guo Er The reason why my ancestor disappeared on the battlefield was because he was accidentally injured and fell into the river. When he woke up, he had drifted far away, and his martial arts skills were also completely useless, so he was disheartened. Leng Xia lives in seclusion locally."

Yu Lei sat down and said, "The next story is a bit dramatic. To put it simply, he met a reclusive miracle doctor, so he became a normal person at the cost of getting married, so he changed his surname to Guo Later, she got married and had children, and learned a new set of martial arts from her father-in-law - San Qin Xi, which is a strange Kung Fu that imitates chickens, ducks and geese. However, the old master said that he had also heard of San Qin Xi before. , although it looks a bit strange, but it is still quite powerful when it comes to fighting, so now Guo Er can be considered a second-rate master."

Three-animal play?

As a medical student, Liu Xing naturally learned Wu Qin Xi before, because in the physical education exam, Wu Qin Xi or Baduanjin will be tested, and of course the most common Tai Chi.

"After Guo Er's father heard about how Boyang City chose a new city lord, he felt that his son was also qualified to be the city lord, so he arranged for Guo Er to return to Boyang City, and then there was such a big drama; However, I still felt that there was something fishy about this matter, so I arranged for a few people to investigate Guo Er’s hometown, Xiacheng, to see if he was lying.”

Yu Lei said with some worry: "Xia Cheng is under the rule of the Ninth Prince, and the Ninth Prince is also a scheming person, so I suspect that Guo Er is a chess piece arranged by the Ninth Prince!"

"Ah? The Ninth Prince is playing a big chess game. His territory is not directly connected to the Third Prince, so even if he controls Boyang City, he won't gain much, right?" Liu Xing said doubtfully.

"It's important to be on guard against others. Anyway, this matter still needs to be investigated clearly."

Yu Lei shook his head and said seriously: "Besides, the ninth prince can also use Boyang City as a bargaining chip to do business with other princes. For example, the sixth prince and the ninth prince are both sons of Concubine Dong Gui, so you should understand That’s what I meant!”

"understood."

Liu Xing and Meng Fugui nodded.
