Real Cthulhu Running Game

In ancient times, except for a few port cities, there were few decent cities on the coast. After all, ships in ancient times could only sail near the coast, and the fish that could be caught were very limited. Therefore, even if some fish such as sea fish and sea cucumbers could be sold at high prices, the income was quite unstable, and there were not many people who could consume these fish, so it was difficult to form a city.

As for the shipping of the New Dragon Empire, it cannot be said that there was none at all, but it can also be said that there was none at all, because there were also many undercurrents and whirlpools on the coast, and almost no ships could cross this dangerous sea, so the New Dragon Empire was almost useless in this regard.

Therefore, the new dragon empire now has only three coastal cities, and these three cities can be said to exist because of a certain sect. There was originally another city related to the mermaids, but after the incident with the mermaids, this city gradually declined and finally became an empty city. After all, the meaning of this city is to trade with the mermaids, so when the mermaids no longer trade with humans at will, this city has no need to exist.

However, this abandoned city has become a special place in this martial arts module - the abandoned city.

In theory, players can directly set their birth point in this abandoned city, but the well-intentioned Cthulhu game lobby will remind players at this time - if the player selects this birth point, the hell survival mode of this martial arts module will be opened, please make a decision at your discretion.

Moreover, before players make a decision, they have to wait for a one-minute countdown before they can click to confirm. As for choosing "Exit", they can click it at any time, but after making this decision, they can no longer choose "Abandoned City" as their birth point.

The most important thing is that there are only 50 player quotas in "Abandoned City". If they are all used up, the remaining players will no longer be able to choose "Abandoned City" as their birth point.

Moreover, players who choose "Abandoned City" as their birth point will have a special task - secret, in short, they have to investigate what the real name of "Abandoned City" is.

Logically speaking, this "Abandoned City" has only been completely abandoned in recent years, so it is not difficult to find out the real name of "Abandoned City". For example, when Liu Xing was bored, he asked Yu Lei if he knew what the original name of "Abandoned City" was, and he heard a standard answer - Jiaocheng.

Of course, it can also be called Jiaoren City, Yucheng and Zhucheng. In addition, there are also nicknames such as Haizhu City and Yiren City.

That's right, "Waste City" has several names nowadays, but these names can only be regarded as nicknames of "Waste City". Of course, there may be the real name of "Waste City" among them.

There is no way, because "Waste City" can be said to be tied to the mermaids, so when others mention the "Waste City" of the year, they will inevitably mention the mermaids. Therefore, in this era where it can only be passed on by word of mouth, the real name of "Waste City" has gradually been covered by aliases such as "Jiao City".

It's like some words in the real world originally had a standard pronunciation, but because everyone read the word wrong, in the end they could only make the mistake and make the wrong pronunciation directly become correct.

After all, this is the general trend.

So the standard name of "Waste City" today is Jiao City, but the problem is that this standard name is not necessarily the real name of "Waste City", because even Yu Lei, who is knowledgeable and has read a lot of royal books, is not sure that Jiao City is the real name of "Waste City". After all, "Waste City" has a history of hundreds of years. . . That's right, the "Abandoned City" was also built in the previous dynasty.

There is no way, all the history related to the previous dynasty is a messy account that cannot be explained, especially such unimportant trivial matters.

Moreover, even if the name of this "Abandoned City" is really Jiaocheng, it is also an ambiguous name for those players who choose to use the "Abandoned City" as the birth point, because they can hardly find clues in this regard in the "Abandoned City". After all, this is a special task. If you can find the correct answer casually, it will be a bit funny.

Moreover, Liu Xing estimated that there is a special mechanism for this special task, that is, the player has only one chance to submit the answer. If the answer is wrong, it means that this special task is directly declared a failure.

At the same time, the number of people who complete this special task should also be limited, that is, only the first few players who answer correctly can get the task reward, and the remaining players are just participating.

After all, if there were no such restrictions, this special mission would be a reward for the brave for these players, because any player who chooses to enter the "abandoned city" can get a reward. You should know that the "abandoned city" is isolated overseas, and the nearest city is hundreds of miles away, and there is no proper road along the way, because if other people want to do business with the mermaids, they will go directly by sea.

As for the nearest settlement to the "abandoned city", it is also a small fishing village located dozens of miles away. There may be only a few families in this fishing village, because this fishing village is the legendary Tanka.

Tanka, in short, is a family that can only live on boats for various reasons. In some stricter periods, Tanka may have to complete their birth, aging, illness and death on the boat, and may not be able to go ashore once in their lifetime.

After the New Dragon Emperor ascended the throne, he also issued a general amnesty. Therefore, there were no real Tanka households in the New Dragon Empire at that time. However, some of the previous Tanka households had already gotten used to living on boats, so when they were down to earth, they felt that everything was wrong, so they could only continue to live on boats, but their descendants could get off the boats to live.

Therefore, there are fewer and fewer real Tanka households nowadays, so there are only a few families left in this fishing village, and almost all of them are old, weak, sick and disabled.

After all, if there is a chance, who would not want to live a better life?

Moreover, the typhoon on the seashore is like a catastrophe for such a small fishing village. If you are not careful, all your belongings will fly into the sky. Of course, you may also fly into the sky, so it is a miracle that there are still a few families in this fishing village. . . But then again, this is all outdated information that Liu Xing heard from Yu Lei. According to Yu Lei, this information is at least five years old.

Five years is enough to make such a fragile fishing village become history, so Liu Xing suspected that the players who left the "abandoned city" came to the fishing village according to the clues, and found that the fishing village had become history, and then found that their dry food had been eaten.

You should know that in history, many mysterious events related to outdoor sports, such as mountaineering and camping, may be because the participants misjudged their food reserves, which led to the participants making some operations that were very strange in the eyes of bystanders, because bystanders would subconsciously think that these professional participants could not go wrong in preparing supplies, which is a simple but very important thing.

So these players who left the "abandoned city" may choose to go to the fishing village for supply reasons. After all, how to collect enough food in the wild is also a technical job. If you are not careful, it may backfire. Therefore, if you can find a human settlement for supply, it is also a good thing for the players. . . . As a result, this is a trap specially prepared by the Cthulhu running group game lobby!

However, experienced players may think that this may be a trap. After all, in the lobby of the Cthulhu game, when there is an obvious way out and a vague dead end in front of you, you'd better choose the dead end, because the way out may be a bright and upright road of no return.

However, Liu Xing is still very curious about how the players in this "abandoned city" have been doing in the past two months, because it is reasonable that this "abandoned city" should be overgrown with weeds. Although those houses can still maintain a rough framework, the furniture and pots and pans inside are probably no longer usable. After all, the "abandoned city" is close to the sea, and the humidity brought by the sea breeze is not ordinary.

So Liu Xing thinks that the first disaster these players encounter in the "abandoned city" may be one word-water, because the original water source in the "abandoned city" is definitely not drinkable directly without maintenance.

Therefore, after completing the special mission or after the special mission is over, these players should not be interested in exploring the sea area around the "abandoned city". After all, this "abandoned city" is definitely not a habitable place, and the Cthulhu running group game lobby will definitely arrange a few monsters here to force players to make a choice as soon as possible - whether to complete the special mission at risk, or to save the green mountains and not be afraid of running out of firewood?

And according to the classic settings in many film and television dramas, when the protagonist group completes the decryption of such a mysterious ruin, it will not be surprising to turn on the self-destruct mode, so that the protagonist group can contribute another parkour scene at the end.

So Liu Xing also thinks that these "abandoned city" players will start the life-threatening running mode after completing this special mission, because the slow players will have to leave the martial arts module in advance, and even if you can escape the first day, you may not be able to escape the fifteenth day. After all, you still have to continue to survive in the wilderness and find a place with people a hundred miles away.

Moreover, even if most players can swim, they may not be able to swim in the sea. Even if they can swim in the sea, they may not be able to dive, let alone dive without equipment. Therefore, even if a player goes diving at the seaside, he may not find the server stored on the seabed.

When Liu Xing was thinking about the possibility of the underwater server, he did not notice that Li Mengyao beside him was already looking at him with surprise and helplessness, because at this time, Li Mengyao did not expect Liu Xing to show her another moment of distraction so quickly.

"I have to say that Liu Xing is really amazing at this moment. He can immerse himself in his own world so quickly."

Li Mengyao sighed, shook her head and said: "Anyway, after finishing this event, I will discuss with Sister Lu and the others to see if we should take the time to trigger the tasks related to the underground river, and then see if the description of this task will mention words such as server."

"Definitely not."

Zhang Jingxu said without hesitation: "Based on my understanding of the Cthulhu running group game lobby, it will definitely not directly mention the server and server-related words, but we can still do the opposite, that is, when this underground river-related task does not have any information related to the server, and there is no information about Warcraft, it means that this underground river is really related to the server! Because the reason why this underground river has become so dangerous is nothing more than two possibilities-Warcraft and server."

"There is nothing to say about these two possibilities, because they can both kill nearly a hundred martial arts masters in an instant without leaving any flaws... Well, this may be a bit exaggerated, but it's not too far off. Go? In short, if there are no World of Warcraft and servers in the underground river, then I really can’t figure out why Chiyou City is like this, and I can’t imagine that there are so many clues pointing to the existence of AI intelligent systems on our side. ! Of course, we must also admit that although these guesses can form a logical chain, the problem is that they are all guesses! "

"This is like a big gold chain that looks real. After simple fire and other inspection methods, nothing wrong is still found. Can we be sure that it is a real gold chain? Of course it is. No, because there is a metal called alluvial gold on the market today that is very similar to gold, and some common methods cannot tell whether it is real gold, so our current guesses are all pie in the sky. It seems that it can be done! It’s self-justifying, but as long as there is a mistake in one link, the whole game will be lost!”

"Therefore, we cannot rule out the possibility that the Cthulhu Running Game Hall is deliberately misleading us. After all, human energy is limited, so we were led astray by the Cthulhu Running Game Hall. After that, I’m afraid it will be difficult to focus on other aspects. As a result, those of us who have been led astray will be unlucky, because we spend a lot of time and energy, only to find that we are playing tricks! It’s all in vain, and there’s no chance to change your thinking.”

"Zhang Jingxu is right, Mengyao and you don't want to stay in Chiyou City any longer. You have to have a brief taste of the underground river, that is, you just need to know a rough idea."

Liu Xing came back to his senses again and said with a smile: "But we can use this to make Mo Jin a stumbling block."
