Real Cthulhu Running Game

"Originally, I planned to have a showdown with you after the Battle of Gongwu. After all, if we can become the final winner of the Battle of Gongwu, then we can also try this mission of the King in Yellow, not to mention my The character card was originally the younger brother of the King in Yellow, so this was a disaster that I couldn't avoid! However, the intrusion of the Night Demon caused this matter to end without any problems, so I didn't mention it to you, and I also wanted to. Let Lendl be my trump card."

Speaking of this, Liu Xing pretended to sigh, shook his head and said: "Let me tell you first, it's not that I don't believe you, but because we met too many NPCs at that time, so when I After telling you this information, our character cards may leak information when we exit the game, because in the eyes of us character cards, NPCs are the same existence as them.”

Liu Xing's words are not without purpose, because there are some players whose character cards have caused such trouble. In short, when the player exits the Cthulhu Run game lobby, the character card is stuck in the self-activating area. At that time, I chatted with NPCs about some things, including some things that the players did not intend to tell these NPCs.

As for why this is the case, it is not because the Cthulhu Run Game Hall is pursuing the so-called sense of reality. Therefore, since the character cards of these players are good friends with those NPCs, it is inevitable that they will say a few words when chatting. , and this is nothing in the eyes of the character card.

So there was a very classic case before this, that is, a player wanted to use a certain NPC to do things for him, so he started to play the emotional card, and the result was that the NPC was really confused. ; But this player complained about this matter while chatting with other players, and ended up forgetting that one of the players was a good friend of that NPC.

Ever since, when the player went online again, he found that the NPC not only drew a clear line with himself, but even stood on the opposite side of the player out of love and hatred. The most important thing is that he also brought other NPCs with him. Brought it over.

As a result, the originally simple difficulty module suddenly became a medium difficulty, causing the player to get stuck inexplicably. At the beginning, the player still couldn't figure out what was going on and what happened to the NPC. Did you suddenly rebel? So this player thought that the Cthulhu Game Hall was targeting him.

If another player hadn't found out that he was Judas after checking the memory of the character card, I'm afraid everyone would still think that this is a Cthulhu Run game lobby that is not very authentic, and they just like to give players a little strength.

Therefore, there is a new suggestion in the must-read post for newcomers to the forum, that is, it is best for players not to tell everything to the outside world, especially when you know the relationship between a certain player's character card and a certain NPC. When it's better, don't think that the player won't say anything, so just say something casually, and then the player's character will say it unknowingly.

If it's just some trivial things, it's okay to talk about it, but I'm afraid that some things that are more important to the players will be spread out inexplicably! For example, players have speculated that a certain NPC may be an undercover based on some special intelligence, but the player's character card cannot infer this based on the information he knows. This is also a very common situation, because the player's character card They must know the existence of certain mythical creatures and spells, so they naturally cannot be as sure of certain things as players.

This is just like a certain NPC is actually a deep diver and can pass through some waters that humans cannot pass. Therefore, before the player's character is stuck and does not know that there are such monsters as deep divers in the world, it is impossible to doubt that this NPC can do it. to this point.

Therefore, although these players can deduce the truth of the matter in the secret room time, these dialogues will be modified to a certain extent in the mind of the character card by the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, such as "So-and-so is a deep diver" It will be changed to "So-and-so may be a diving monster"!

If this NPC is revealed to be a deep diver in the current module, then that's okay, but if we have to wait until the next module to face this NPC, then there may be a certain The character card accidentally mentioned this matter while chatting with the NPC, or a certain character card took the initiative to test the NPC. In short, it is inevitable to alert the snake.

At that time, Liu Xing and others were also in contact with many NPCs, so at that time Liu Xing was also worried that if he told Zhang Jingxu and others about Lundell's existence, it might make the whole city known in the next module. , after all, the NPCs around him at that time were just a group of ordinary people who had seen a little bit of the world. In addition, he had not set any strict rules, so these NPCs had no sense of confidentiality.

Regardless of whether Zhang Jingxu believes it or not, Liu Xing believes it now.

And Zhang Jingxu didn't intend to dwell on this for too long, so he started directly to the next topic, "The grid where the big tree is located is interesting. There are so many flying monsters entrenched on it, so you won't let it go." Lendl will help you get some equipment and props. Anyway, you have to go into the banquet hall to find the "King in Yellow". It's idle outside, so why not help you get some more stuff?"

When Zhang Jingxu said this, Liu Xing was also stunned, because he was still thinking about other things at that time, so he didn't think of asking Lendl to help him brush some equipment props. Thinking about it this way, he was at a big loss.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine to take now, but in the end, he asked Lendl to help him solve a BOSS, so it's not a loss after rounding it off.

It hurts.

Liu Xing took a deep breath and pretended to be generous and said: "At that time, I thought I would get the things and walk back soon, so I didn't ask Lendl to help me brush some useful equipment props... And I can't take so many things by myself. After all, although the grid array this time is designed based on the idea of ​​the game, we players don't have any backpack space to store various items without limit, so it's hard to take away the fine steel claw that Lendl gave me."

Seeing that Liu Xing was still stubborn, Zhang Jingxu also smiled and shook his head.

However, before Zhang Jingxu took a few steps, he suddenly said in a serious tone: "But here comes the question again, Liu Xing, do you still remember that there is a new, quasi-old ruler who claims to be the God of the Internet and ran to the real world, and it is possible that it has launched a very popular game in the real world? So do you think that this God of the Internet is the designer of this grid array?"

When Zhang Jingxu said this, Liu Xing was stunned again, because although the idea proposed by Zhang Jingxu was very bold, it was really not nonsense!

You must know that there is a possible setting for the dream maker, that is, the various items created by the dream maker in the fantasy dreamland will be destroyed together when the dream maker loses his ability or dies. After all, the reason why these items can appear in the fantasy dreamland out of thin air is because of the dream maker!

So these things are just castles in the air, so if the dream maker is gone, then there is no possibility for them to exist again?

If this is true, then since this grid array still exists here, it means that the game planner who created the grid array should still be alive, but not staying in this place. In this way, he may really become a new Old One!

Uh, new Old One, why does this name sound strange?

As for whether there will be new members of the Old One, the Cthulhu game lobby has never explained it, but many players have heard more or less in their own parallel worlds that new Old Ones are about to be born. Among them, the quasi-Old One who appears most frequently is the half-step Old One of the Mi.Go clan - Gadamon.

Speaking of Gadamon, Liu Xing wanted to complain that this half-step Old One is like a game that starts with the word "silk". They are both typical "in my lifetime" series. You must know that the game that starts with the word "silk" was already in development before the project of Heimalou was established. As a result, now that Heimalou has made history again, there is still no news about it.

As for Gadamon, every player who joins the Cthulhu game lobby has heard of its name, but no player has ever seen a moving Gadamon! However, several players in parallel worlds have heard that Gadamon has some new moves, such as the Mi.Go tribe attacked a certain Old One or an ancient god, and then wanted to use something on them as the core of Gadamon!

This is understandable, because Gadamon was cultivated by the Mi.Go tribe using seeds "borrowed" from Azathoth, so it has always been a semi-finished product, most likely because this seed can only create Gadamon's body, but there is no way to give Gadamon an interesting soul.

So some players think that this is like the eggs we usually see, that is, the eggs sent from the farm basically cannot hatch chicks, because it lacks a very important thing, and the seeds of Azathoth are the same, otherwise it is unknown how many Old Ones there are in this world; therefore, it is not easy for the Mi.Go clan to find a suitable "soul" for Gardamon to make it a real Old One. After all, you can't expect the battery of an ordinary electric car to drive a Gundam, right?

In addition to Gardamon, some players in parallel worlds have heard that the Yis people and the Ancients also have plans to create Old Ones. The reason why the Yis people have this idea may be because it exchanged bodies with a Mi.Go, and then found that this Mi.Go seemed to be able to contact Gardamon, so this Yis people brought back some technologies related to the creation of Old Ones.

In addition to these mythical creatures that take the technological route, there are also some outstanding mythical creatures like Dagon, and the clones of the Old Ones like the King in Yellow, who have all thought about going a step further. After all, no one wants to stay where they are and serve others like a slave, right?

In addition, some humans have tried to create the Old Ones, and their design ideas are typical of becoming a god through incense!

In myths around the world, the concept of becoming a god through incense often appears, that is, when a person is recognized by many people, especially worshipped, then this person can directly become a god.

Of course, the "people" here may not be people at some times, and can even be a relatively abstract concept, such as the Internet!

Whether in the real world or in the various parallel worlds in the Cthulhu Running Group game hall, the Internet can be connected with billions of people, and there are even more people who rely on the Internet to support their families, so in this If there is also a setting for incense to become a god in the Sulu Running Group game hall, then it is normal for a god of the Internet to appear.

However, it is not advisable to create a god out of thin air, because Gadamon can also be used as a warning, so the God of the Internet should also need a core or carrier, so this Dream Maker is really a good choice.

"The God of the Internet."

Liu Xing's eyes suddenly became sharp, "It seems that after this martial arts module is over, we need to go back to the real world to investigate this possible Internet God! I am a little doubtful now that this is The Cthulhu Running Group Game Hall is raising Gu, because we all know that this Cthulhu Running Group Game Hall is not monolithic, so Ao Guanhai and others may seek the support of some old rulers. After all, that general’s How many soldiers do you have?"

"That's right. Although these old rulers are not as good as Ao Guanhai and Nyarlathotep's clones, they are unlikely to be manipulated casually."

Zhang Jingxu said as he walked: "I wonder if you, Liu Xing, have heard of such a speculation, that is, there is a sleeping Cthulhu in so many parallel worlds, and the appearance rates of Sathoggua and Hasta are also different. Not bad, so are the Old Ones with the same name in these parallel worlds the same person? Or is only one Old One the real one, and the other Old Ones with the same name are clones or copies? Why do plots of the Old Ones destroying or dominating the world happen? It’s because this Old Ones are the real Old Ones!”

Zhang Jingxu's words reminded Liu Xing that when he got back the character card "Liu Xing", the Satugua he met in the module was a little different.

"So Ao Guanhai and others should want to cooperate with some of your real old rulers, but they can also settle for the second best and create a new old ruler to do things for themselves."
