Real Cthulhu Running Game

After chatting with Yu Lei for a while, Liu Xing went back to help unload the goods.

This time it was other people from the Bai family ranch who came.

At the beginning, the Bai family was prepared to hedge their bets, letting White River City bring a group of people to Tianshui Town to build a new pasture, while the rest stayed at the original pasture; but now the situation has changed. The Bai family members who originally planned to stay in Heshan County also realized that their situation was somewhat dangerous, so they chose to move and brought everything they could bring to Tianshui Town, including some bulky furniture.

Anyway, the Bai family ranch has no shortage of cattle to transport goods, so this family brought more things than the previous NPCs who came to Sweetwater Town combined.

Fortunately, White River City was well prepared. He knew that his family members would definitely give in and bring all their belongings to Sweetwater Town after discovering that the situation was not right, so he also did more when planning his new pasture. With some preparations, it is enough to accommodate everyone in the family.

This is definitely a good thing for the players, because the Bai Family Ranch is currently the only reliable meat supplier, so except for a very small number of vegetarians, most players in the league have long been accustomed to eating it every day. They live a life of meat, so it’s okay to let them be vegetarians for a few days temporarily, but it will be a bit uncomfortable to be vegetarians for a long time.

Although the river next to Tianshui Town provides a lot of fish, the white meat of fish and the red meat of pigs, cattle and sheep are not the same concept, and they are very different in taste, so Liu Xing has heard that some players call fish meat For half meat.

Therefore, in the past few days, some players took the time to go out and cook, such as hunting nearby. After all, the range of influence of the Wine Ape is limited to the woods near Sweetwater Town. You can still see all kinds of delicious food if you go further. Little animals; what’s more, they go directly to Heshan County to eat out! Although many local NPCs chose to leave, the NPCs in the restaurant business were not affected much, because they mainly did business for passers-by, so they still had some business in the past two days.

What's more, these restaurants usually reserve some ingredients, so if these ingredients are not converted into income, they will suffer a big loss, so they persist until now and few families are ready to move.

So Liu Xing thought about it and planned to ask Baihecheng to go to his pasture to see if there were any cows, sheep, etc. Because of the move and the weather, there were some "heat strokes". If so, let them all "cool down". , so that everyone can be happy.

After unloading all the goods from the large and small cars, Liu Xing saw Baihecheng walking over with a depressed look on his face.

"Alas, something bad happened to Liu Xing. My fiancée asked me to go to Far West City now."

Baihecheng said: "Didn't my fiancée come back from Qingliang Mountain? As soon as she got home, she wrote a letter to my parents, saying that there was a storm during this period, and something big might happen, so she was the general's tiger girl. , and she is also a child of the world. She felt that she needed to do something in the future, so she decided to settle some matters with me in advance."

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but said: "Oh, is she planning to give you a divorce letter and directly disown the marriage?"

Baihecheng shook his head and said with a wry smile: "That's not the case. After all, the relationship between our two families has always been good. We haven't fallen out and broken off the engagement yet. Besides, my fiancée has always had a very good impression of me. Basically, There is no negative impression, so this marriage is definitely possible; and didn’t we think of establishing an alliance at the beginning? So Liu Xing, aren’t you all suggesting that I should have a good relationship with this fiancée? , after all, her father is the gate captain of Far West City, and he is more or less one of the most famous generals in the area."

"It is precisely because of this that anyone from Far West City can leave, even my fiancée's family must stay in Far West City! Unless they do not intend to stay in the New Dragon Empire, after all, the New Dragon Empire treats military generals It's quite good, but it's really unreasonable that you are running away now. More importantly, my father-in-law is also one of Taishou An's confidants. Taishou An promoted my father-in-law to this position after he came to Far West City. Chengmen Lieutenant, this shows how much Prefect An values ​​my father-in-law."

"So if nothing else happens, my father-in-law will have to stick to Far West City! Therefore, my fiancée asked me to go to Far West City this time. Most likely, she planned to marry me first, and then let me essentially marry into their family. , after all, it is impossible for me to take her back to live in Tianshui Town during this period, and it is impossible for me to let my family enter the fire pit of Far West City; but I will not go this time and must not go, so Liu Xing, you have to write me a letter of introduction so that Yang Yu and others from Far West City can establish contact with me, so that we can advance and retreat together."

"No problem, I will write you a letter like this later, but don't expect Yang Yu and the others to help you with much. After all, they have only established themselves in Far West City not long ago, and they don't have many people in the first place, so they can The support given to you is not much, not to mention what you may encounter later, which is to help your father-in-law withstand the enemy's attack."

Liu Xing sighed, shook his head and said: "I remember that there are actually quite a few defenders in Far West City, but the problem is that as a commercial-based city, Far West City does have a lot of gates, and there is no barbican. and moats, so there are some deficiencies in city defense, so if you really have to defend it, you will be under a lot of pressure; but the location of Far West City is also very important, it can be regarded as a traffic light at the intersection, not to mention this intersection is still a must when entering the city. The road through! Therefore, the third prince should not give up Far West City easily, unless he is prepared to open up his territory."

"Yes, now we can only hope that the Third Prince will send troops to support Far West City, otherwise I will be the first one among us to break the card... I don't know who will be the first in this module. Will the player who tears the card be transported directly back to the real world, or stay in the Cthulhu Run game lobby to think about life, or simply be temporarily frozen." White River City shook his head and said.

The "frozen" in Baihe City's mouth refers to the fact that some players, after discovering that they have torn cards in the module, will see that their teammates have passed the module and appear in the real world with them as soon as they close and open their eyes. Or in the real Cthulhu Run game lobby, so these players are curious about what they experienced from the moment they ripped up the card to when their teammates cleared the module?

Therefore, among the current player group, there are roughly two theories about this matter. The first one is the so-called "frozen" theory, which means that the player who tore the card was run away by Cthulhu the moment he left the module. The group game hall was "frozen", and of course it might have been hypnosis. In short, the players immediately lost consciousness at that moment, and would not wake up until the module ended.

As for the second theory, it is "amnesia". That is to say, the player does not actually lose consciousness after tearing the card in the module, but he may meet with KP in advance, and then directly act as KP's assistant and help KP do what he does. Some things; as a result, after the module ended, kp started to destroy the game and directly deleted the player's memory, so the player thought that the entire module was over as soon as he closed and opened his eyes.

As for why there is this second statement, the main reason is that some players who have experienced similar situations may dream about some strange places and people after returning to the real world. The biggest characteristic of KPs is that they all wear Some fancy masks will also greet players at a very distinctive location.

For example, the KPs that Liu Xing had met before met him and other players in cinemas, teahouses or in front of the stage, and the masks they wore were also different.

As we all know, when people dream, they usually refer to their own memories, or look for materials from their own memories. Therefore, in some dreams, their childhood friends and college roommates will appear shopping together, or their favorite celebrities will appear. Playing arcade games with your relatives, in short, it is easy to have some "Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong" type of dream, and the battlefield may be at a tourist attraction that you have only been to once, or even just watched in a video. Place.

Therefore, these suddenly appearing dream materials become evidence that players think that certain memories of theirs have been covered up. After all, it is difficult for people to create a person they don’t know in their dreams for no reason, especially when this person is unknown. There are some scenes.

But having said that, if a player tears the card in advance, and the other players in the module are not his teammates, then the player will be directly sent back to the real world, because this player does not need to perform any module settlement. ; So if you want to be "frozen" or "amnesiac", you must have your own teammates in the module.

But the problem is that when you have already torn the card, then your teammates may also be doomed. After all, when the player officially turns on the team function, it means that this player has already been in the Cthulhu Run game lobby for several times. The module can be regarded as accumulating some experience, so you are unlikely to tear up the card in the early stage of the module due to some low-level mistakes, unless you are too aggressive and trigger a plot kill. . . All in all, in most cases when you are tearing up cards, your teammates are basically in trouble and need to face the enemy you just saw.

All in all, there is a high possibility that your teammates will follow in your footsteps, and you will all tear up the cards and leave the module together.

So before this, Liu Xing supported the second statement, that is, after the player tears the card, he will go to see the kp, or watch the further development of the module from a God's perspective. If his teammates and other players also quickly If the card is torn, then these players will go directly to the settlement screen of the module; if the teammates of the player who tore the card are lucky enough to escape, the module will continue for a period of time, and the player will leave the game. This memory was erased during the module, because before that, he would still stay in the module as a spectator player.

But now, Liu Xing agrees even more with the "frozen" theory, because Liu Xing knows what the Cthulhu Running Group game hall was like at the beginning, and the Cthulhu Running Group game hall back then can be considered as a modern one. The Cthulhu Running Game Hall has laid a solid foundation. In other words, the current Cthulhu Running Game Hall still uses many of the original settings, so it should be in insignificant aspects that Aoguanhai and the others have not made. What modification.

Therefore, Liu Xing still remembers that in his dream, the male voice mentioned that there were already hundreds of beta test players in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, and he was the only one with an AI he created as the kp. This shows that The Cthulhu Run game lobby at that time may not have been able to run multiple modules at the same time, so the male voice came up with such a 100-player module to allow all players to participate.

Then the problem is back again. Liu Xing remembered that in his last dream, it seemed that players had begun to tear up cards, but the male voice did not mention that he had been in contact with these players, so Liu Xing had reason to doubt that at this time The Cthulhu Run game lobby will "freeze" players who have ripped their cards in advance, and wait until the module is over before sending these players back to the lobby together with the players who have cleared the game.

Of course, since Ah Yi and other players have never complained about the dog group leader, that is, the male voice, it means that the "freeze" here is a good experience for card tearing players, and there is no discomfort. place, so Liu Xing has reason to think that the "freeze" here may be to send card-breaking players to another special place, such as letting these players drink tea and play mahjong in a teahouse? Or simply put the player into a small dark room, so that the player loses the ability to perceive time, and then make him mistakenly believe that only a few seconds have passed?

"Liu Xing, what are you thinking about? I remember that you haven't torn up the card yet, right? Except to avoid suffering when you upgrade to the module?" Baihecheng said.

Liu Xing came back to his senses, shook his head and said: "I did tear up the card a few times, but every time I left the module directly, so I have no say in this aspect, but anyway, Baihe City, you If you are in danger, take your fiancée with you quickly, no, she should be your wife by then. Anyway, you can bring them back to Tianshui Town, which can be regarded as adding some strength to Tianshui Town."

Baihecheng nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, I won't tear up the card in advance for such a little affection, so I plan to let Yang Yu and the others start digging tunnels."
