Real Cthulhu Running Game

During the Qingming Festival, when the rain hits a mythical creature, it can not only cause damage to the mythical creature, but also reduce the movement speed of the mythical creature.

That's why Liu Xing chose to hand over the rain during the Qingming Festival to Sonoda Zhuli. If Zhuli Sonoda was discovered by the White River City, he could use the rain during the Qingming Festival to buy time for a while.

After Liu Xing explained to Sonoda Zhuli how to use and function the rain during the Qingming Festival, Sonoda Zhuli said curiously: "Wow, is it so magical, Liu Xing, do you have that kind of charm that can make people invisible through walls? Of course, it would be best if you could teach me this spell personally, and it will be much more convenient for me to go out and collect materials in the future."

Liu Xing frowned, knowing that Sonoda Zhuli really regarded himself as a Taoist priest of Maoshan, and all kinds of invisible wall penetration techniques came. . .

Seeing Liu Xing's expression, Sonoda Zhuli knew that Liu Xing didn't know how to stealth and penetrate walls, so he pretended to be disgusted and said: "Cut, it seems that Liu Xing is still not good at learning."

Liu Xing sighed helplessly, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it's because I'm not good at learning, which disappointed you, Zhu Li."

At this moment, after drinking coffee, Baihecheng and the young crew member got up and left the coffee shop together. Sonoda Zhuli nodded to Liu Xing, and then followed cautiously.

After drinking the coffee, Liu Xing went to the deck to look for Yin En.

Coming to the deck, Liu Xing quickly found Yin En who was alone.

"Haha, it looks like your situation is not good." Liu Xing said jokingly.

Yin En nodded with a wry smile, and said, "Liu Xing, don't come here to add insult to injury, but then again, Liu Xing, do you know what the Innsmouth face is?"

Of course "Liu Xing" doesn't know what the Innsmouth face is, but Liu Xing does.

To put it simply, as mentioned above, many deep divers live in the waters near the town of Innsmouth. Although the deep divers look like fish heads and human bodies, they seem a little stupid, but the general intelligence of deep divers Certainly more than human, and unless killed, deep ones are immortal.

Because of the need for some livestock as sacrifices, and other reasons, the deep divers near Innsmouth began to conduct various transactions with humans in Innsmouth Town, and later there were intermarriages between deep divers and humans. Condition.

Because in the world view of the Cthulhu mythology system, there is almost no reproductive isolation between humans and mythical creatures, so hybrids of humans and deep divers appeared. Before the age of thirty-five, these hybrids have no difference in appearance from humans, but After the age of thirty-five, it may also be due to factors such as contact with the same race or extreme pressure that the appearance of these mixed-race children changes rapidly. First, the eyeballs gradually protrude and bulge so that the eyelids cannot be closed, and the skin gradually becomes gray-green. It is wet and cold, scales grow on the surface, paddle webs grow between the five fingers, fish gills grow from the wrinkled nape of the neck, etc., and the time it takes for a hybrid to transform from an ordinary human appearance to a deep diver's appearance is actually not that long. It won't be too long, and after these hybrids have completely turned into deep divers, they will jump into the water and go to the nearest deep diver city, and live the life of deep divers from then on.

Because the town of Innsmouth is the place where humans and deep divers intermarry the most, and the town of Innsmouth is not completely isolated from the outside world, so many outsiders have seen those in the town of Innsmouth. The mixed-race children in the changing stage, because this appearance is too strange, formed the concept of "Innsmouth face". Of course, this word can also be used to ridicule others for being ugly. There is an attribute of APP, but according to human aesthetics, the APP of deep divers is only about 10.

In the Cthulhu running game, if a player tells you that a certain NPC or player has an "Innsmouth face", what he means is that that NPC or player should be a deep diver Hybrids with humans.

However, although "Liu Xing" knew about the existence of deep divers, he didn't know much about the specific situation of deep divers, so Liu Xing could only choose to shake his head and say, "Uh, I really don't know much about this."

Hence, Yin En told Liu Xing about the specific situation of "Innesmouth Face" and the relationship between people with "Innesmouth Face" and deep divers. However, because the content this time was not "exciting" enough, and Liu Xing's Cthulhu myth knowledge value had exceeded double digits, so Liu Xing only lost 1 point of SAN value and gained 1 point of Cthulhu myth knowledge.

After Yin En introduced the "face of Innsmouth", he continued: "Liu Xing, you may not know something, I once went to the small town of Innsmouth to perform a mission, and I saw these people with the faces of Innsmouth. The villagers with faces, they used living people to perform sacrifices at the beach, which attracted real deep divers to devour those living people, and then I heard from a local villager that these people with the faces of Innsmouth have not changed Complete deep diver."

"I see, Yin En, you mean that these people with the face of Innsmouth have appeared on the cruise ship, and they may hold a sacrificial ceremony on the cruise ship?" Liu Xing said pretending to be surprised.

Yin En nodded solemnly, and said affirmatively: "That's right, these guys are no longer human beings, but deep divers. The most important thing is that I've heard people say that these people with the faces of Innsmouth basically Shangdu lives in a village by the sea, and they usually don’t leave their village, and their water quality is so good that it’s impossible for them to appear on a cruise ship, so I suspect that they have plots on the cruise ship. It is possible that some kind of sacrificial ceremony will be held, and as for the sacrificial offering...it is likely to be the people on this cruise ship."

Liu Xing nodded thoughtfully, and then told Yin En about his encounter with Baihe City, "It's just like this, this Baihe City is definitely not simple, I suspect that he has already transformed into a ghoul through that roll of parchment So now it seems that this White River City is very likely to be the same as the man with the face of Innsmouth."

Yin En said with some doubts: "Liu Xing, do you mean that ghouls are going to cooperate with deep divers? If I remember correctly, these two mythical creatures have different beliefs. Will they really cooperate?" ?”

According to the setting of the Cthulhu mythology, the deep divers must believe in Cthulhu, while the ghouls believe in Mordiggian. Both are the old rulers, but there should be There is no connection, plus deep divers live by the sea, and ghouls live under the cemetery, the two sides can be said to have nothing to do with each other.

Therefore, Liu Xing also began to wonder how Baihe City hooked up with a half-breed deep diver.

"By the way, I have already got rid of Gao Liumingyin to investigate the origin of the man with the face of Innsmouth, and that ugly guy is accompanied by a crew member, and the crew member seems to worship that ugly guy very much, I It is suspected that the crew member may be a member of a church that worships deep divers." Yin En said seriously.

"Church?" Liu Xing asked curiously. After all, "Liu Xing" has never been in contact with such church organizations that believe in evil gods or mythical creatures, so in order to expand his knowledge base, "Liu Xing" must be ashamed to ask. .

Yin En nodded, showing an expression of recalling the past, and said slowly: "Just like some people believe in God, others believe in Satan, there are many people in this world who still believe in those mythical creatures, and some indescribable things. I know several churches that believe in deep divers, but these churches are not very large, they are all located in seaside cities, and the influence of the church only covers the surrounding areas."

"However, when I was on a mission in the small town of Innsmouth, I saw a strange world map in a basement. There were many red dots marked on that world map. These red dots They are all located on the coastline, and they are marked with a strange text, so I took a photo, and after the mission was completed, I asked a linguist to translate it for me, and finally translated the word church Now that I think about it carefully, that map should be the church distribution map of those who believe in deep divers, and there are red dots on several major ports in the universe country, including the destination of the Yueshi, so there are deep beliefs among the crew. It's not impossible for a believer in potential."

Liu Xing nodded, this module has actually been figured out by himself, since the NPC Gao Liu Mingyin and Sonoda Zhuli are Liu Xing's helpers, it is also very good that the helpers in Baihe City are the crew of the Yueshi cruise ship. normal.

At this time, Liu Xing suddenly remembered that his mobile phone had been damaged, and there was only one mobile phone card left, and now Sonoda Zhuli still needed to use his mobile phone to contact him, so Liu Xing could only ask Yin En for a mobile phone, after all Yin En But a man with several mobile phones with him.

After confirming that the mobile phone signal was fine, Liu Xing turned the volume of the incoming call to the maximum, and then put the mobile phone back into his pocket with confidence.

At this time, Gao Liumingyin came over with her mobile phone, and said with a smile: "It's good luck, a friend of mine happened to be working at the port, and he helped me call out the passenger list of the Yueshi cruise ship. He did not find out who the strange-looking person was, because the passport photos on the boarding list did not match, so he asked the security personnel in charge of the Yueshi again, and only then did he find the person's information. After all, that person His appearance is really strange, and the security personnel have a very deep image of him."

While talking, Gao Liumingyin handed the phone to Yin En, which contained the passport information of the deep diver hybrid.

Liu Xing, who was standing next to Yin En, naturally approached him directly, and found that the person on the passport was also his acquaintance—Mo Jin!

That's right, this Mo Jin was in the Dilong Village module, who stole chickens without losing money, sold Liu Xing and another extra, and finally died Mo Jin, Liu Xing didn't expect to meet him here .

However, according to the information on the passport, Liu Xing was surprised to find that Mo Jin was a Chinese-American, and his birthplace was Innsmouth, Massachusetts!

Liu Xing frowned, realizing that Mo Jin might have used a new character card after tearing the card, but Liu Xing really didn't expect Mo Jin to transform into a hybrid of a deep diver and a human.

Fortunately, Mo Jin did not change his name and appearance, so this did not affect "Liu Xing" to recognize "Mo Jin".

Ever since, Liu Xing pretended to be surprised and said: "You are not mistaken, I know this person. He once rescued disasters in Northwest China with me. At that time, he also said that he was a local gangster. Why did this change suddenly? , became a Chinese American?"

As an old driver, Yin En naturally heard the implication of Liu Xing's words, and said with a smile: "Could it be Liu Xing, you misidentified the person, after all, there are quite a lot of people with the same name and surname in this world."

While talking, Yin En handed the phone to Liu Xing.

Liu Xing looked at the phone pretendingly, and then said affirmatively: "I can be sure that I have not mistaken the person, he is the Mo Jin I know."

Yin En nodded, returned the phone to Gao Liu Mingyin, and said, "Mingyin, if possible, can you find your friend again and check Mo Jin's entry and exit records."

Gao Liumingyin nodded, but asked curiously: "Yes, yes, but Yin En, why do you pay so much attention to this person? Isn't he just a little strange?"

Yin En sighed, and said to Gao Liu Mingyin: "Mingyin, you should still remember the tall monster with fish scales all over the body that Honda Hongyi created, right?"

Gao Liumingyin nodded, her eyes widened suddenly, and she said in surprise, "You mean, this Mo Jin is the prototype of that monster?"

Yin En nodded, and told Gao Liu Mingyin about the "face of Innsmouth" and the possibility that Mo Jin and Baihe City might join forces to hold a ceremony to worship evil gods on the Yueshi cruise ship.

After listening to Yin En's narration, Gao Liumingyin nodded solemnly, and then took the mobile phone to a quiet place to make a call.

"The situation is not good." Yin En lit a cigarette and said with some melancholy.

Liu Xing nodded. He didn't expect that the players in the hostile camp of the module were all old acquaintances, and they were considered the two most "evil" players Liu Xing met. After all, Mo Jin sold his teammates, and Baihe City was a madman. believer.

But this is not a good thing, at least I know some of their situation, can quickly recognize their identities, and can define them as villains, no wonder before kp Li Shunchan said that he can easily recognize the hostile Faction players.

PS: It's cold.
