Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2524: The King in Yellow (novel version)

"So now the question is, how do I get up there?"

Liu Xing put his hands on his hips and looked at the crystal chandelier above his head. For a moment, he didn't know what to do at this moment. After all, there were some long tables with various foods and drinks in the banquet hall, but these long tables seemed to be welded to the ground, so even if he tried his best, he couldn't move them at all.

In addition to the long tables, there were only statues in the banquet hall that couldn't be moved at all. Although these statues were much taller than the long tables, the problem was that the statues were still far away from the crystal chandelier! Not to mention that the load-bearing capacity of these statues was also quite average, because Liu Xing could take down the corners of these statues with just a little bit of twisting.

So Liu Xing also tried to use the fragments of these statues to knock down the unknown luminous body, but the problem was that this thing was at least three stories high, so Liu Xing, with his small arms and legs, really couldn't throw it so high.

Besides, there are many pendants covering the unknown luminous body, so it is still too difficult to find a gap among the pendants.

So Liu Xing only had one idea at this time, which was to find a possible mechanism in this banquet hall, because under normal circumstances, there must be a mechanism here to lower the crystal chandelier. After all, everyone who walks in here can see the unknown luminous body at a glance, and they will also think that this unknown luminous body is the most valuable thing here, and the fact should be so, because there is nothing else worth mentioning nearby.

However, this banquet hall, which is as big as several football fields, makes Liu Xing feel like a mouse that has fallen into a rice jar. Although he has tried his best to eat a lot, there is still white rice around.

A person is really a little powerless.

This feeling of powerlessness made Liu Xing couldn't help but think of himself two days before school started. He found that he had several homework books that he hadn't touched at all, and then he started to sit at the desk to make up homework except for eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and every time he checked his homework progress, he found that there were still so many pages that he hadn't written.

Forget it.

After checking one wall of the banquet hall, Liu Xing looked at several nearby walls and fell into deep thought. He began to think about a question, that is, whether to ask Lendl to catch a few more people to help, because he was too powerless alone.

And from the previous situation, this grid array was designed according to ordinary online games, that is, a so-called multiplayer copy, so under normal circumstances, there should be dozens of players entering this banquet hall. The most important thing is that among these players, there should be long-range professions such as archers and mages. In addition, online games generally have attack lock functions, and at most there may be a few misses, so it is not difficult to knock down this unidentified luminous body, right?

If it really doesn't work, you can also knock down this crystal chandelier directly. Anyway, this crystal chandelier and the ceiling are directly connected by a steel pipe as thick as an arm, and it looks like it will take only a few shots to knock it down.

Unfortunately, Liu Xing didn't have this ability at this time.

So after working for a while, Liu Xing chose to sit down at home and think about life, because it is difficult to really do a blind cat meeting a dead mouse with such a busy schedule.

Even if Liu Xing should have passed a lucky judgment at this time, nothing happened even if the judgment was successful.

"If this is an online game, then how can I take this thing down?"

Liu Xing sat cross-legged on the ground, looking up at the unknown luminous body, touching his chin, and muttering to himself: "According to Long San, the missing chief planner should be responsible for a 3D online game. After all, online games these days can no longer make 2D turn-based games. Then 3D online games have a Z axis representing height, so ordinary attacks cannot hit targets at a certain height! Therefore, after entering this banquet hall, players want to take down this unknown luminous body. They should trigger a certain mechanism or mechanism, right?"

As an Internet-addicted teenager back then, Liu Xing has also played many conventional online games, that is, multi-professional online games where you can play monsters and dungeons when you have nothing to do. These online games occasionally design some mechanisms to let players change their taste or make a decoration.

But in these online games, such mechanisms are also triggered with one click, and there is basically no room for operation. However, according to Long San, the online game that this chief planner is responsible for is a hit product in recent years, especially known for its copy design, so this chief planner should work hard on the mechanism and mechanism, after all, online games now have only so much room for breakthrough.

So it has to be a mechanism?

But this banquet hall can be seen at a glance. There is nothing worth mentioning except the long table and the statue. I also studied these long tables and statues at the first time, and did not find any mechanism.

Could it be hidden in those food and drinks?

Thinking of this, Liu Xing ran to a long table again. When he was about to pick up a plate of fruit, he found that the fruits seemed to be glued to the plate, and the plate was also directly glued to the table.

Still motionless.

But what's interesting is that the wine can be moved.

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal!

Liu Xing immediately realized that the mechanism here must be related to these drinks, so he quickly turned around to take a look at the drinks on the surrounding tables.

"So that's how it is."

After Liu Xing saw clearly what kinds of drinks there were on these long tables, he knew how to crack the mechanism this time!

As we all know, different foods need to be matched with different drinks to complement each other. After all, you can't put a glass of white wine next to a small cake and a cup of hot black tea next to the cold beef, right?

So the mechanism this time should be to put these drinks on the corresponding long tables, because the food and drinks on these long tables are different. For example, there are several glasses of strong liquor that may be vodka on the long table that Liu Xing is facing now, because Liu Xing has never drunk foreign liquors such as vodka and tequila, but he can also know that the food on this long table is not compatible with these strong liquors, because it is a pile of macarons and small cakes.

So, Liu Xing picked up these strong liquors and put them on a long table full of meat, and then found a few glasses of champagne and put them back on the original table.

After working for a while, Liu Xing, who thought he had done his job, heard a "click", and then there was nothing else.

Seeing this, Liu Xing knew that his thinking was correct, but the answer he gave was wrong, so he quickly changed several answers that he was not sure about, and then he heard a "ding" sound.

Feng Ling Yue Ying, start!

Liu Xing felt that he was a little unstable after the "ding" sound, and then he saw the crystal chandelier above his head began to drop things, like rain.

Of course, if these falling gems fell on Liu Xing, Liu Xing would still feel that this was painful and happy, after all, these gems were priceless at first glance. Although Liu Xing was not short of money at this time, he was also quite interested in these gems.

You must know that gems of this quality cannot be bought with money in the real world, and the mall in the Cthulhu running group game hall will not put such useless gems on the shelves, so it is not easy to get these good quality gems.

So Liu Xing had already thought about it, that is, when these gems fell, he would also pick a few good gems and put them in his pocket, and then find an opportunity to give them to Tian Qing.

What Liu Xing didn't expect was that these gems turned into energy balls of different attributes when they fell. When these energy balls fell to the ground, they burst out huge energy. For example, the ruby ​​was like a volcano erupting, constantly releasing large and small fireballs around.

For a moment, Liu Xing was like a professional dodgeball player, dodging the energy balls of different colors. This made Liu Xing wonder if he had made the mistake twice, so he activated these mechanisms.

However, at this time, Liu Xing subconsciously glanced at the unknown luminous body and found that it was already shaky.

Hold on for a while.

Fortunately, the number of these gems landing at the same time was not large, and these gems would disappear one after another ten seconds after landing, so Liu Xing could barely dodge them.

Moreover, Liu Xing found that these long tables could not block any energy balls, but those statues were good shelters, which could more or less block the attacks of several energy balls.

Therefore, Liu Xing found the right opportunity and hid behind a statue, and brushed himself a few successful lucky judgments.

"Pah."

At this moment, Liu Xing heard something fall to the ground, and the gems that kept falling stopped falling at this time. As for the gems that had not yet landed, they remained the same at this time.

So Liu Xing picked up an emerald gem on the ground next to him, and then looked at the unknown luminous body.

A book?

A tattered thread-bound book.

Liu Xing looked at the book with some doubts, and began to think about a question, that is, the King in Yellow asked Lendl to take this book. No matter how bad this book is, it must be at the level of "Book of the Dead", right?

Of course, it could also be the book "King in Yellow". After all, the King in Yellow and this book are a perfect match, and even this "King in Yellow" may be the King in Yellow's natal prop.

Because no one can tell clearly now whether the King in Yellow or "King in Yellow" came first in the Cthulhu running group game lobby?

However, Liu Xing still remembered that "The King in Yellow" was a play with only a few scenes, and the thread-bound book in front of him seemed to have hundreds of pages, so it shouldn't be "The King in Yellow", right?

Liu Xing thought as he came to the thread-bound book, and then saw four big characters - "The King in Yellow"!

Is it really "The King in Yellow"?

Liu Xing picked up "The King in Yellow" with some disbelief, and received a system prompt full of question marks, which also meant that Liu Xing really got what Rendel wanted, and also understood why the King in Yellow asked Rendel to go back and find it after getting it, because this "The King in Yellow" was very important to the King in Yellow.

But at this time, Liu Xing still couldn't understand why this "The King in Yellow" was such a thick thread-bound book. You know, the first few versions of "The King in Yellow" were just a few pages of scripts. Although Liu Xing had never seen "The King in Yellow" in person, he had seen different versions of "The King in Yellow" through other means. For example, Alice's master collected several different versions of "The King in Yellow". There were also players in the forum who posted that they got "The King in Yellow". There was even a comic version of "The King in Yellow".

It is worth mentioning that this comic version of "The King in Yellow" was drawn by a player himself, and this player's comic skill reached 90 points, so he could draw the plot of "The King in Yellow"!

You know, if the skill value is not up to standard, this comic book may just draw the beginning, and the player will fall into a temporary crazy state directly. If he continues to insist, this character card will be useless.

So this "The King in Yellow" is also a similar secondary creation? So it expanded from a script to a novel?

Thinking of this, Liu Xing opened the book "The King in Yellow" and took a look.

"Ah?"

Liu Xing looked at the book "The King in Yellow" with a surprised look on his face, because it turned out to be a book without words!

That's right, this book "The King in Yellow" turned out to be a book without words, and there was nothing on it!

However, Liu Xing thought about it and felt that this was reasonable, because the book "The King in Yellow" was the thing that the King in Yellow personally named and wanted to get, which meant that it was not something that ordinary people like him could understand, not to mention that he came from a special parallel world at this time, a parallel world without mythical creatures and the Old Ones, so it was normal that he could not understand these books related to the Old Ones.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing put away the "King in Yellow", then looked around to make sure that there was nothing worth staying in the banquet hall, and then walked out of the banquet hall.

"Did you get it?"

When Rendel saw Liu Xing walk out of the tree hole, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "If nothing goes wrong, that thing should be a book."

Liu Xing did not keep it a secret and directly took out the book "The King in Yellow", and Rendel took it with a look of surprise, "I was right about you, you really took this thing out secretly! Then I can report to the King in Yellow, and I will also ask for credit for you."

After saying that, Rendel wanted to leave the dreamland, and Liu Xing naturally could not let it go, after all, he could not fly!
