Real Cthulhu Running Game

Liu Xing sighed and said seriously: "Obviously, this farmland grid is also a special grid, because as we guessed before, those grids before were all natural environments, but now they have become man-made. Landscape, uh, although this farmland is not a landscape, but that is not important. What is important is that this farmland grid highlights a difference, so the scarecrow in this grid cannot be so weak, and if nothing else happens, it will still be there. There is a Scarecrow King.”

Hearing what Liu Xing said, Baihe City immediately understood what Liu Xing meant, "Oh? Leader, you mean that this Scarecrow King is still observing in secret, and these two thousand scarecrows were sent out to test us? After all, It doesn't know what our strength is, so it doesn't dare to use all our trump cards. If this is the case, then these two thousand scarecrows may not be a big deal to the Scarecrow King. The remaining scarecrow in this farm grid may have a five-digit number, right?”

"It's not important."

Liu Xing shook his head and said: "If most of the remaining scarecrows are still as strong as they are now, then even if there are more than 10,000 scarecrows staring at us, our pressure will not be too great, we are just a little tired! But this possibility is slim, because if I were a qualified game designer, then these scarecrows should be divided into categories, from ordinary scarecrows to elite scarecrows, to scarecrow elders and scarecrow kings. Of course, there should be There are ranged attackers like the Archery Scarecrow.”

"However, scarecrows have an inherent disadvantage, that is, the toughness of straw is approximately zero, so it is not that difficult to make these scarecrows draw bows and arrows. Therefore, unless these scarecrows suddenly mutate, they can only use some physical means. To help you become an archer, you need to use the soil in the field to paste it on your hands. When the soil dries, won't it become a bronze head and an iron arm? In this way, you will be able to draw a bow and nock an arrow. , and the defense will also be improved a lot.”

"Clay sculpture?"

Baihecheng raised his eyebrows and said: "I remember that clay sculptures in ancient times were limited by the conditions at that time. They basically used straw as a support, and then applied mud to make the shape. This can save time and effort. Secondly, The clay sculpture will also become lighter, and there will be no need to gather so many people to move it. Of course, it can also save some costs. After all, straw in ancient times was very cheap, and serious Clay for statues is quite valuable, so unless it is a large temple or Taoist temple, this type of clay statue is still the main one.”

"So according to you, Alliance Leader, there will be a kind of clay scarecrow in this farmland grid? To put it bluntly, it is a heavy armor unit. After all, dried soil has stronger defense than many iron armors, but its ability to prevent puncture is still a little bit worse. , but it is more than enough to deal with us scraps of metal. How can I say that, if this is the case, then these scarecrows can only come to us before the mud is completely dry, because although the dried mud can. It maximizes your defense, but it also limits your range of motion.”

This is a problem.

Although the defensive power of soil is very high after it is agglomerated, it has also lost its original ductility. That is why no one makes a piece of earth armor to wear on their bodies. The same should be true for these scarecrows. After choosing to become When the heavy armored infantry of one's own clan was defeated, the freedom of movement was forever lost.

This reminded Liu Xing of those terracotta warriors and horses. If they could really move, it would be difficult for them to even raise their hands, right? As for walking, are they just small steps?

So if these scarecrows still pay attention to physical rules, there are only two choices before them. One is to directly turn these mud-covered scarecrows into movable fortifications, that is, to install a few spears on them. , and then let a few scarecrows push it forward, then Liu Xing and other players will really have to avoid its edge when they encounter it.

As for another option, when the mud is about to dry out, put these scarecrows directly into the battlefield. This way, you can have both defense and flexibility. However, this defense is far different from the first option. Far away.

So if I were the Scarecrow King, what choice would I make?

Want defense or flexibility?

If the number of scarecrows is large enough, then defense is the best choice, because today's scarecrow side needs a way to break through the player's formation, and these dry mud scarecrows with full defense and at the same time forcing players to stay away are one The best way to break the situation.

As for the number of scarecrows, if there are not as many as Liu Xing and others imagined, then the next best thing is to let these mud scarecrows appear directly. Although the defense power has not been greatly improved, they will not be as good as their own kind. It is also cut in two casually, and the mud will also adhere to the player's weapon, which will still have some impact.

"In short, Lao Bai, please take a few people to go around and take a look. If you find anything, come back and notify me immediately. Of course, if you encounter an enemy that cannot be dealt with, withdraw immediately. In short, be cautious and try to find out as much as possible. What’s going on now?”

As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, Baihecheng nodded and left.

Although Baihecheng seemed a little unreliable in many cases, when he was not going to be a traitor, he was clean and efficient, and his success rate was extremely high.

Unfortunately, Baihecheng had almost merged with "Baihecheng", so his mental state in the real world was still good, but when he returned to the parallel world where "Baihecheng" was, he suddenly became crazy.

Otherwise, Liu Xing really wanted to pull Baihecheng into his team, because to be honest, Liu Xing felt that although the number of players in his team had exceeded two digits, there were still a few people who could be described as "filling the numbers".

Yes, Tian Qing was one of them.

If it weren't for Liu Xing, Tian Qing and Li Mengyao would definitely not have been able to join the team, because they were still pure new players in the Cthulhu running group game lobby, the kind who had not even read the rule book, so if they hadn't been pulled in by the Cthulhu running group game lobby because of Liu Xing, and Tian Qing was Liu Xing's first love, Zhang Jingxu and others might not be willing to take two new players to participate in the module, and it was a module in the Cthulhu area.

Therefore, the current position of Tian Qing and Li Mengyao in the team is still quite awkward. To put it nicely, they do whatever is needed, and to put it bluntly, there are two words - useless, because even Liu Xing knows that Tian Qing and Li Mengyao can't stand on their own in a normal module, so Tian Qing and Li Mengyao are mainly responsible for various logistical affairs and handling some trivial matters in the current team.

Of course, Lu Tianya is not much better. Although she is also one of the earliest players in the Cthulhu running group game lobby, she chose to quit the Cthulhu running group game lobby very early and became an ordinary shadow player.

In the real world, although Lu Tianya also encountered many mythical creatures, this is a completely different experience from encountering mythical creatures in the Cthulhu running group game lobby. Moreover, everyone knows that the current Cthulhu running group game lobby is similar to the Cthulhu running group game lobby of the past, but this little difference is enough to affect many things.

This is like many online games that just launch a new profession, or update some new copies and equipment, which will have a huge impact on the entire game ecology, and even directly change the game.

So after Lu Tianya returned to the Cthulhu running group game lobby, although he performed with ease, he also had some discomfort, so Lu Tianya also bound Zhang Jingxu to act together in other modules.

In addition, Zhang Wenbing, Sun Huiwen, and Li Hanxing are not as good as the top, but better than the bottom, because these three people spend most of their time in the module slacking off, but when necessary, they can still stand alone and make a lot of contributions to the team. . . If they hadn't come early, Liu Xing might not have absorbed them into his team.

As for the biggest shortcoming in the team, Liu Xing thinks it is himself.

That's right, Liu Xing now feels that he is the biggest shortcoming in the team, because as a doctor, "Liu Xing" has not had many opportunities to show his ability so far. After all, in the Cthulhu running group game lobby, players don't have many opportunities to get injured, because if they are really injured, it's almost like tearing the card, and there is no chance of rescue.

As for ordinary minor injuries, anyone can deal with them, and related judgments such as medical skills will not be able to directly recover blood as long as they succeed like in other games, so this process sometimes seems too long, so even if there is an opportunity for medical judgment, there is no time to complete the medical judgment to take effect.

So after staying in the Cthulhu running group game lobby for such a long time, Liu Xing really hasn't been able to show his ability in medicine many times, so Liu Xing almost forgot that he is a doctor.

The character card "Liu Xing" also has inherent deficiencies in combat. Even if he fights against an unarmed ordinary person, he dare not say that he can win. However, he did learn a new skill during the Gongwu battle - shooting, which can be regarded as a certain self-protection ability.

So now that he has arrived at Miskatonic University, Liu Xing also wants "Liu Xing" to find a shooting range to learn well. In this way, even if he cannot become a professional gunman, he will not be beaten without fighting back, and he will still have to fight back when scolded.

Therefore, Liu Xing feels that his position in the team is actually quite embarrassing, which is a typical case of not living up to the name. . . Although the current team does not clearly want to select someone as the captain, when there are some external exchanges and everyone is present, he will still stand up and be the person in charge, so he can be regarded as the nominal captain, right?

However, as the captain, he cannot carry anything on his shoulders or lift anything with his hands. In the module, apart from being able to analyze a thing or two, he does not have any advantages. Of course, if I have to say something, it is that my communication skills are quite good, so I have made friends with many NPCs. The most important thing is that even Nyarlathotep's clone is his partner. Therefore, Liu Xing feels that his biggest advantage now is his extensive network of contacts.

Although in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, connections are also a very illusory thing, because you cannot ask for help from a player or NPC in a module that does not exist in the module, unless this person has a short-term The ability to directly parachute into the module, but Cthulhu group games generally do not allow such a powerful being to directly join the module halfway, so you can find any reason to block this person from the module.

So although this network ability looks good, there are still many restrictions when it is really used. However, after Liu Xing and others entered the Cthulhu area, this network ability has been greatly improved, because Cthulhu Players in the Sulu area can stay in the parallel world without turning on the module. At this time, they can use their connections to do some things, such as asking Yui Matsui to find out information, or asking Lendl to do it for them. Go explore a place.

So Liu Xing's evaluation of himself at this time was just one sentence - useful, but of limited use.

That's why Liu Xing feels that he is the biggest weakness in the team. Although Chai Mi, Tian Qing and Qing are newbies, they only joined the Cthulhu Running Team game hall because of themselves. At the same time, he decided first and then played the part to let them join. He has lost his own team, so he still has to shoulder the blame!

Thinking of this, Liu Xing suddenly felt a sense of guilt for no reason. He always felt that he was a little sorry for Yin En and others. As suspected real closed beta players in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, they were supposed to be in the Cthulhu Run game. Life was better in the hall, but he ended up hanging around here with himself. . . well!

Just when Liu Xing lamented that he seemed to have missed someone else's future, Ao Guanhai in the sky showed a mysterious smile.

Yes, although Ao Guanhai and others will be trapped in the thirty-third heaven in the martial arts module, when the players enter the dreamland due to participating in the event, a fantasy suddenly appears in the thirty-third heaven. The door of the dreamland, and Ao Guanhai who was next to him immediately ran in. In the end, only Ao Guanhai and four other brothers and sisters entered the dreamland through this door. As for the others, they could only watch helplessly. The door to the fantasy dreamland suddenly appeared, and then suddenly disappeared.

Ao Guanhai, who entered the dreamland, locked Liu Xing's position immediately.
