Real Cthulhu Running Game

Seeing that both Liu Xing and Liu Xing had some doubts on their expressions, Yue Shao explained: "Nemo Point is a geographical concept. It refers to the point farthest from the surrounding land. In our case this time, In the martial arts module, we connect the four farthest points of the New Dragon Empire’s southeast, northwest, and then take their center point, and this center point is near Wangxiang Terrace!”

After hearing what Yue Shao said, Liu Xing quickly took a look at the map in his hand and found that Wangxiang Terrace was indeed in the center area of ​​the map, just a little bit off. But if the reference object was set to southeast, northwest, If the four farthest points are located, then the position of Wangxiang Terrace is considered to be correct.

"Uh, this doesn't seem to be a big deal, right? Because we knew the Wangxiang Terrace was at the center of the map at the beginning, so it's normal for it to be Nemo Point, right?" Xu Bin asked in confusion.

"No, this Nemo point actually has something to say."

Yue Shao said seriously: "This Point Nemo is not only unique in location, it is more than two thousand kilometers away from the nearest land, so it is also known as one of the most inaccessible places for humans, because you can only access it by ocean-going ship. Arrive here safely, otherwise if you approach Point Nemo in other ways, it will basically be a trip of almost death; therefore, the closest human beings to Point Nemo are not on land, but on the space station in the sky, because the space station When we passed Point Nemo, it was only over 400 kilometers away, but that’s not the point. The point is that Point Nemo has a very special place.”

"In short, the area near Point Nemo is not only uninhabited, but also has very few aquatic organisms. There may only be some microorganisms living in this sea area, because we all learned it when we were studying. Ocean currents, so we know that ocean currents can bring a lot of nutrients, so those famous fishing grounds are located where the ocean currents must pass; as a result, there is no ocean current passing through the sea area at Point Nemo, or even surrounding this sea area. It spins in a circle! It's a bit like a vortex when a washing machine is running, and there is only air in the middle of the vortex."

"So the sea area where Point Nemo is located has almost no nutrients, just like a desert in the sea. Therefore, 99% of marine life cannot survive in this sea area. After all, you can't even take a bite." None! As we all know, the Cthulhu Run Game Hall likes to make jokes, so I think that since the Wangxiang Terrace is the Nemo Point in the New Dragon Empire, it may have some of the characteristics of Nemo Point. For example, this area may be a place with nothing, even if it is among the mountains! Therefore, if we want to investigate Wangxiang Terrace, we may have to prepare more food and water!"

"Huh? This is indeed a possibility."

Liu Xing nodded and said: "In my impression, the Cthulhu Run Game Hall not only likes to play tricks, but also likes to do some counter-intuitive operations. For example, the Wangxiang Terrace looks like it is located in an inaccessible mountain forest. , then there should be a lot of animals here; so if I want to arrange an adventure team to go to Wangxiangtai for exploration before this, I may not prepare too much dry food for them, because they can pass If you hunt to obtain food, the most you can do is provide more clean drinking water, after all, there may be many problems with water sources in the wild."

"Yes, I thought so too, so when I realized that this Wangxiang Terrace might be Nemo's point, I was worried that we would bring the wrong things to explore Wangxiang Terrace!"

Yue Shao sat on the carriage and said: "You may have heard of new energy fishing, but you probably don't know much about this new energy for digging earthworms, right? To put it bluntly, it uses high-voltage electricity to electrify a relatively humid land and remove those earthworms. Force them out, because earthworms are quite valuable! But doing so will probably result in no earthworms to turn the soil, and changes in the soil structure. In the end, the land will look normal, but nothing will grow. Things eventually turned into a dead land; when you, alliance leader, came back from Philadelphia, you should have passed a town that thundered all the year round, right? Not even a root of grass could grow on the top of the mountain where there were thunders all year round. "

"Uh, is this similar to a salt-alkali land?"

Liu Xing rubbed the back of his head and said: "If the area near Wangxiang Terrace is a lifeless place, then it is either a high-intensity saline-alkali land or a place filled with miasma! If it is the former, then it is okay to say, we just We can continue to explore as long as we are prepared, but if it is a place like the latter that requires wearing special equipment to enter, then we will not be able to enter it in a short time.”

At this moment, Xu Bin suddenly remembered and said flatteringly: "By the way, I suddenly remembered that something happened in my hometown, that is, the whole family fell into a shallow pit in the open air. In the end, none of them were rescued! I was still very young at that time, so I heard from my family that it might be because of the evil in that family, so it was so baffling, and I couldn’t find a reasonable explanation at all; but as I grew up, When I got older, I understood what was going on, because the family was harvesting sweet potatoes or something, so they all suffocated due to lack of oxygen!"

"Oh, I've seen this kind of news before! Although it seems that it is impossible for this kind of open-air shallow pit to be hypoxic. After all, this kind of shallow pit seems to be constantly ventilated. How could it be hypoxic? Even if there are some breathing sweet potatoes in it? In fact, this is a counter-intuitive thing. The sweet potatoes picked first can still breathe, and they are constantly absorbing oxygen to release carbon dioxide. In addition, although this shallow pit It is open-air, but in weather with little wind, it is difficult for oxygen to exchange with carbon dioxide in the pit, so this shallow pit is approximately equivalent to a secret chamber after rounding off."

Liu Xing sighed, shook his head and said: "And this kind of shallow pit is more confusing than ordinary cellars, because people now know that long-term sealed places like cellars are likely to be lack of oxygen, so they all We know that after opening the cellar, we must ventilate it first. If possible, we must use candles to test whether there is sufficient oxygen in it; but who would have thought that such an open-air shallow pit can still lack oxygen? So this kind of place is It is more likely to cause accidents, and such shallow pits are usually located next to fields, so few outsiders pass by these places and cannot immediately detect that someone has had an accident."

"Yes, so I have a guess right now, that is, Wangxiang Terrace may be located in a sinkhole, and there will be a lack of oxygen in this sinkhole for some reason! More importantly, it is too difficult for us to Supply oxygen to a place like this, after all, we don’t have any large hair dryers on hand." Xu Bin scratched his head and said.

This is indeed a big problem.

Liu Xing touched his chin and said: "According to our previous speculation, if Wangxiangtai is an omnic control center, or a library or information center of a previous human civilization, then it does not need any oxygen, or even It can be said that we prefer this kind of anoxic environment, after all, the power of oxidation cannot be underestimated.”

"The sinkhole and the lack of oxygen make it difficult for us to approach Wangxiang Terrace."

Yue Shao shook his head and said: "So when we explore Wangxiang Terrace for the first time, it is best to arrange for a few people to visit the site first to determine the general situation of Wangxiang Terrace. If it is really like what we said, or Are there other similar harsh terrains? If we have the opportunity to enter them, we can send some more people to give it a try. If we can't solve the problem of entering them in a short period of time, then we should focus our energy elsewhere. Bar."

Just as Liu Xing was about to speak, he heard a sharp blast from the Geiger counter in the carriage. This shocked Liu Xing and others. After all, they all knew what the loud noise of the Geiger counter meant. .

"Let me go, this sound is really loud. There can't be a reactor nearby, right? Or is it simply a mine?"

Yue Shao stood on the carriage and looked around, "There's nothing special around here, so it's not something wrong with the Geiger counter, right? After all, this thing has been around for so many years, so it's normal for something to go wrong, right?" ?”

At this moment, an oxcart appeared at the corner in front. There was something covered with black cloth on the oxcart. Several people next to it also looked nervous, and they had been staring at the convoy where Liu Xing and others were. , and more importantly, these people all held a short ax in their hands.

"Axe Gang?"

Yue Shao looked at the ox cart and said: "Judging from the irregular shape of the black cloth, the thing on the ox cart should be a stone, so we have reason to suspect that this stone also has radiant energy."

At this time, Liu Xing also focused on the bullock cart, then nodded and said: "Looking at the posture of these people, I suspect that this stone has already opened the door, so these people will regard it as a treasure." , prepare to take it to Feihu City and sell it at a good price."

The "Dakaimen" in Liu Xing's mouth refers to rough stones such as jade or jade. It can be seen with the naked eye that this rough stone can produce good things, so it is called Dakaimen. Later it was extended to antiques and other fields. , in short, this thing is a good product at first glance, so after buying it, you don’t need to worry about the quality of the thing. At most, you only need to worry about whether it is a bit expensive.

Of course, there is a small door corresponding to the big door, that is, this thing looks like a good thing, but the good here is only limited to the surface. There may be gold and jade outside, but there is the possibility of failure.

In the real world, gambling stones often refer to rough stones with small openings. After all, only this kind of stone is necessary for gambling, because there is no need to gamble on rough stones with large openings, and no one will gamble on stones without openings. It can only be used as a blind box to sell to people who don’t know the industry but want to take a gamble.

Judging from their clothes and expressions, as well as the axes in their hands, these people should be villagers from a nearby village, because their clothes are very ordinary, and the axes are also common short axes, which are used for chopping firewood and doing carpentry work. That kind of axe.

More importantly, these people looked a little too nervous, and when they passed Liu Xing's carriage, Liu Xing could see obvious timidity in their eyes.

"Obviously, these are a few fellow villagers who got unexpected wealth. They may have found a stone that fell on the ground when they went to cut firewood in the mountains, and the stone's skin has been broken, so it can be seen that this There was a treasure inside the stone, so they wanted to take the stone and exchange it for some money."

Liu Xing shook his head and said: "I remember that whether it is uranium or plutonium, their ore shapes are quite beautiful. The former is jade that is comparable to imperial green, and the latter is silver ore that is more lustrous, so it is quite normal to be regarded as a gem. Yes... But then again, these two ores are quite expensive to begin with. If normal people can't wear them, I think they can also be used to make various jewelry."

"You don't know the radiation when you are in the radiation. However, the physiques of the humans in this martial arts module cannot be generalized to ours, so we can't say anything. We can only wish them good luck."

Yue Shao looked at the ox cart that had gone away, and said with a little worry: "Although the humans in the martial arts module this time have all the resistance points, those non-special purpose drones may not have the corresponding points. resistance, so if this stone is really sent to Flying Tiger City, will it cause those drones we saw two days ago to activate the demonic chaos mode?"

"Hiss~ It's scary to think about that battle. After all, these micro drones are dimensionality reduction strikes for the ancients. They can also be said to be the ultimate enhanced version of locusts, and their aggressiveness is also fully maximized."

Liu Xing shook his head, shrugged and said, "But this matter has nothing to do with us. After all, if this matter came true, we would have arrived in Tianshui Town long ago."

After experiencing some hiccups, the convoy arrived at a small town and prepared to set up camp.

The town seemed quite lively because there was a troupe performing in the town.

In ancient times, opera troupes could be said to be a rare entertainment activity for ordinary people. Therefore, no matter which family invited the opera troupe, as long as they did not close the door to watch the opera, people from all over the country would come to join in the fun. It's like the movie screening corps from decades ago.

"I have already found out clearly that today a family in the town is getting married, so we invited a theater troupe to prepare for a day of singing. So after dinner, we can also see how the opera in the martial arts module is sung. .”

Shi Zixuan said to Liu Xing with a smile: "And Wang Wu also came to invite Yang Ping to go to the theater. Of course, he invited all of us openly, so Liu Xing, do you want to join in the fun?"
