Real Cthulhu Running Game

"It's so hot."

While the spectators in the sky were discussing how krypton gold had changed the Cthulhu Running Group game hall, Liu Xing and others on the ground were lying on the floor with expressions of despair.

I don't know why, but the temperature suddenly went up at noon today, so Liu Xing and others hid in the room after eating lunch, because the sun outside was really "warm".

But, the indoor temperature is not low, and the people who were responsible for building these houses at the beginning were not professionals, so windows and other things were not considered. Therefore, there was only a fist-sized window in Liu Xing’s room. Just a vent.

So, in order to cool down, Liu Xing and others could only splash water on the floor, then lie on the ground and start thinking about life.

"Today's temperature has suddenly risen by about ten degrees, right?"

Ding Kun took a sip of water and said worriedly: "This temperature is still too hot for us players. After all, no matter how bad we are in the real world, we still have a fan, right? So we have to find ways to cool down to avoid this high temperature. It affects our morale and we become less productive.”

"Now we have done almost everything we should do. Basically, we are strengthening the defenses of Sweetwater Town and helping the new NPCs integrate into the environment, so it will not be a big problem if the work efficiency is reduced, but such a high temperature It will indeed make people feel uncomfortable." Liu Xing said with a sigh.

At this time, Yin En stood up and said, "So, is there any extra saltpeter over there at Huo Zijun? If so, let them make some ice cubes and distribute them to everyone, so that everyone can have a good sleep." Sleep?"

Hearing what Yin En said, Liu Xing shook his head and said: "Where are the extra saltpeters now? There isn't much saltpeter in Far West City, and it's basically ordered by others. Even if we add money, we won't necessarily It can be bought. After all, those who ordered saltpeter originally had a need for saltpeter, so they chose to order it. Therefore, Yang Yu and the others had already spread the word about this matter in flying pigeons, and they had only scattered it after so many days. They bought a few bags of saltpeter in bulk, and these were small bags that contained money... So they had no choice but to hire people to collect the saltpeter that had a bit of a smell."

The “nitrate with a bit of flavor” in Liu Xing’s mouth naturally refers to those created by the cooperation of nature and artificial intelligence.

"So why don't we move? I remember that it seems quite cool over there in the orchard, because the trees there are more lush and can block excess sunlight, and I also remember that the yard in the orchard seems to go underground. The house built after digging some soil seemed to be a little lower than the surrounding ground? So when we were hiding in the orchard that day, I found that the temperature there was much lower."

After Yin En's reminder, Liu Xing also remembered that the yard in the orchard was indeed cooler than the outside, and although the various buildings in the yard were a little dilapidated, the overall framework was still intact, so it should be enough to take care of it. Check in directly.

The most important thing is that although no one has taken care of the fruit trees around the yard for many years, they are still growing luxuriantly. After all, the wine gorilla and his monkey grandchildren also like to eat fruits.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing made up his mind, "Yin En, you are right, we can indeed reuse this orchard now! The weather is so hot now, it is good to be able to eat some fruits, and the yard is quite nice." The big one and the walls are already ready, so we only need to reinforce it and it can be used as another stronghold for us. If Tianshui Town encounters danger, we can also withdraw to that yard to rest and recuperate. It will be more convenient whether you are leaving or staying!”

Ever since, Liu Xing and others decided to wait until the weather got cooler before setting off to the orchard to inspect the situation. If there were no major problems, they could start work.

But having said that, Liu Xing now feels more and more that something is wrong with today's temperature, because the temperature rise is so sudden. Originally, the temperature in the morning was not much different from the previous two days, but as soon as noon came, it suddenly dropped. The price has risen a lot, and the whole process seems a bit abrupt!

At the beginning, Liu Xing thought it was because he was having lunch in a crowded cafeteria, so he felt the temperature was a bit high. However, it was still the same after leaving the cafeteria, and he realized that the weather was a bit abnormally hot right now.

So this is not a natural phenomenon?

Liu Xing suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, could the current rise in temperature be related to the monster that only eats one bite of fish?

Since the unknown monster under that tower can make the weather cold, it is normal for a monster that can make the weather to heat up now!

And isn’t that a coincidence? Today, my group just discovered that there might be a new monster nearby, and as a result, the weather became abnormal, so it is difficult not to connect these two things!

Ever since, Liu Xing expressed his thoughts.

"It is indeed possible, because there is a saying that doesn't say so? Nature is the best balance designer, so it can make all things mutually reinforcing and restrain each other, ensuring that no single creature can be dominant... Of course, bug-level existences like the terrifying Ape erectus are another matter. Maybe they took advantage of nature's inattention and exploited a loophole. In an instant, they exchanged shotguns for cannons and directly crushed the entire audience with the six-god suit. So much so that there is no other creature in the entire earth server that can compete with him."

Before Zhang Jingxu finished speaking, Baihe City stood up and said: "Isn't it because the entire earth server is terrible that Ape erectus can use equipment perfectly? There are only a few creatures that can make and use equipment. The most important thing is that apart from Creatures other than the terrifying upright ape can also make some white equipment with low bonuses, and the terrifying upright ape can already use red epic-level equipment at will. As for making more powerful golden mythical-level equipment, there is no problem. of."

"Ahem, Baihe City, if you can speak, just say less."

Zhang Jingxu said angrily: "Let's get back to the topic. Many creatures in nature have a restraint relationship, or they are good at completely opposite directions. There is also a saying that a poisonous snake must find its solution within a hundred steps. Medicine, so now that a monster that can cool down has appeared, it is normal for another monster that can heat to appear. Maybe the two of them can fight, just like the flying Kun in a certain anime Kun, and a certain flightless mythical beast.”

"Cliff Sword Warning, why are there still people in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall who can hack me and I can't fly?"

Liu Xing said with a smile: "So according to my previous guess, this backup monster might have been used in other tasks, but now it was forced to play early because the wine monkey was eliminated in advance. Of course, these two tasks may They will also be merged together. For example, we now find that the temperature in Tianshui Town suddenly increased, but the temperature in Heshan County suddenly dropped."

In the end, Liu Xing really guessed it right.

Yes, the temperature in Heshan County has indeed dropped a lot now!

As for why Liu Xing knew it, it was because a player happened to be coming back from there at this moment.

Because the Bai Family Ranch was to be relocated to Tianshui Town as a whole, many NPCs were invited to come and settle there. However, some NPCs were hesitant to come because they didn't know if there was room for them in Tianshui Town.

So after learning the news, Liu Xing arranged for a player to go back to do publicity, which means that Tianshui Town now accepts all comers. As long as you are willing to come and settle down, you don't need to worry about having no place to live.

As a result, this player suddenly shivered while eating at noon, and then discovered why the weather suddenly dropped at noon? The most important thing is that there is a big sun hanging in the sky!

The players who realized something was wrong hurriedly finished their lunch and hurried back.

That's right, the reason Liu Xing sent this player on a business trip was because he could ride a horse! You must know that in today's Sweetwater Town, players who can ride horses are very rare.

After receiving the news, Liu Xing immediately called Meng Fugui and others to Juyi Hall, and then discussed the matter.

"Obviously, there is a Warcraft that can raise the temperature near Tianshui Town, and according to our previous speculation about the Warcraft under the tower, this Warcraft will increase the temperature it can increase step by step over time. Then we may know what it means to boil a frog in warm water." Liu Xing said seriously.

Meng Fugui nodded and said, "So we must get rid of this monster! However, the area where this monster is is overgrown, and it is not easy for us to find its location, so..."

Meng Fugui didn't finish his words, he just looked at Liu Xing.

Liu Xing naturally understood Meng Fugui's thoughts, so he nodded and said: "No problem, I will go to Yu Lei to discuss this matter. I think he will agree to help us, and then Xia Fei and Gongzi Ying will be included." With those guards, it shouldn’t be a problem to capture this monster.”

Now that he had an idea, Liu Xing left Juyi Hall first and found Yu Lei to mention the matter. Moreover, Gongzi Ying and Xia Fei happened to be nearby at this time.

"Then they must be new monsters, and there are two of them!"

Young Master Ying was the first to say: "I have heard a little bit about that tower, because I saw this tower when I passed through Heshan County. After all, it is too conspicuous, so after hearing its story, I thought there might be something wrong with this tower. I didn’t expect that there was a monster hidden under it? And as this monster woke up, it actually led to another monster. More importantly, the two monsters Their abilities are completely opposite! I have never heard of such a thing!"

"Yes, the Warcraft known today basically appear alone in a certain area, with almost no connection with each other, and the interactions between them are also pitiful. At most, one Warcraft passes by another. This is the territory of only one Warcraft, so they simply had a fight, and the loser left honestly. Therefore, this is the first time that Warcraft with obvious mutual restraint like this has appeared, so we must determine whether they are What's going on!" Xia Fei continued.

At this time, Liu Xing unexpectedly received a task - mutual restraint: now there are two warcraft that restrain each other, and the player needs to assist Gongziying to investigate their situation!

PS: Whether these two monsters live or die will affect the final reward distribution.

After reading the introduction of this mission, Liu Xing couldn't help but frown, because if this mission did not have the final PS, then this would be an ordinary hunting mission - solve a certain target and then get a reward.

As a result, the appearance of this PS made Liu Xing feel a little confused, because it was clearly telling him that these two monsters did not necessarily have to die, and perhaps they could be given a way to live.

This is why?

In Liu Xing's view, the current performance of these two monsters can be described as "death is imminent", because their abilities are of the type that do not distinguish between friends and foes, and the scope of their influence is very large, so they Unless you live in an inaccessible area, it will inevitably have a huge impact on the people around you.

For example, the current Tianshui Town is extremely hot. If this monster is allowed to show its strength, then Sweetwater Town can be renamed Hot Water Town.

It seems that these two monsters are not simple either.

But no matter what, what we need to do now is to first determine the general situation of these two monsters!

Because the monsters under the tower were in a completely unknown terrain, Gongziying did not let Yu Lei and Xia Fei take the risk to explore, but arranged for a few people to monitor the movements of the tower; as for the area near Tianshui Town, This monster has become the focus of attention. Xia Fei and Yu Lei will each lead a team to investigate its situation!

As for Young Master Ying, he went with Liu Xing and others to the orchard to see if there was any fruit that could be used as after-dinner fruit tonight.

But before Yu Lei left, Liu Xing did not forget to remind him, "The range that this monster can affect is about a thousand steps, and the closer you get to it, the hotter it will be, so Brother Yu, you can judge by this." The approximate direction and distance of that monster."

At this time, the step Liu Xing mentioned was also a commonly used unit of distance in ancient times, and the "step" here actually refers to two steps, which is today's 1.5 meters.

This means that the range that this monster can affect has reached a radius of about 1,500 meters!

And this is still a conservative estimate, because the player who came back from Heshan County was riding a horse, so he should have underestimated the distance when estimating it.
