Real Cthulhu Running Game

In Liu Xing's opinion, neither Baihecheng nor Mo Jin can be considered colleagues. At most, they are drinking buddies who use each other. It's just that they are now driven by some powerful groups of existence, so they have to work together.

Therefore, Baihecheng and Mo Jin are not sincere in their cooperation. It's good enough if they don't hinder each other. But then again, these things are related to their lives, so for the sake of their initial character cards, they won't backstab their temporary teammates, right?

Unless they are already dead, they may want to drag the other party into the water. After all, colleagues are enemies, not to mention that Mo Jin is the punching bag in the duo.

That's right, Liu Xing thinks that Baihecheng in the module is a classic crazy image, or the kind of pleasure offender that is very common in anime, while Mo Jin is more or less a normal person. At most, he is a little profit-seeking and can do anything for his own interests. Therefore, when Baihecheng takes the initiative, he will definitely "torture" Mo Jin from time to time, so it is normal for Mo Jin to have resentment towards Baihecheng.

Therefore, Mo Jin has now turned over a new leaf, and he has also gotten rid of his anger. Under normal circumstances, as a player in the Cthulhu area, Mo Jin should be worshipped by other players in the forum at this time, so as to get spiritual satisfaction.

According to the pyramid theory of that person, the highest enjoyment of human beings comes from the spiritual level, so at the beginning of online novels, the theme of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger was so popular, so that later things will turn against each other, and there is no such pure style of walking at night in online novels nowadays.

Of course, those online novels that focus on "free" are more special, because what they want is one word - fast, so they can completely "borrow" the treasures of ancient times and write tens of thousands of words in a day.

You should know that Liu Xing has a friend who used to be a gunman in a studio, so when he was having dinner with Liu Xing one day, he mentioned that when he started to write every day, he would open his own special document and call up the text in it at any time. He only needed to change the names of people and places, and then modify it according to the situation, so that he could publish it.

In the past two years, this friend has started to enter the field of interactive videos, so he has written many scripts about Cthulhu Mythos, and some of these scripts are directly based on some classic Cthulhu running group game modules. After all, these modules can be called classics, so they are naturally highly interactive, so it is very suitable to change them into interactive videos.

Therefore, Liu Xing has been wondering whether he will meet this friend in the Cthulhu running group game lobby one day. After all, he is now a related practitioner, so it is easier to be pulled into the game by the Cthulhu running group game lobby than others.

But then again, Liu Xing thinks that if his friend's initial character card in the Cthulhu running group game lobby is the profession of "writer", then it is mostly useless, because in the recent forum, there have been statistics on the top ten endangered professions in the Cthulhu running group game lobby. The "endangered" here does not mean that this profession is rare, but that the players who are randomly assigned to this profession are too easy to tear the card, and it is gone at any time.

Therefore, in addition to the classic archaeologists, folklorists, and mystics, the top ten endangered professions, writers are ranked fourth after these three giants, because writers are easy to come into contact with some magic books, or other books that can deduct san value, and of course they may go to some strange places to collect materials for their works.

In short, the writer profession is also very easy to commit suicide in the world view of Cthulhu Mythos, and often puts oneself in a very unfavorable position at the beginning. For example, a player with the profession of "detective novelist" puts himself in danger at the beginning of three consecutive modules, that is, other players start normally, but he starts deep behind the enemy, because other players come to rescue him.

As for why this situation occurs in three consecutive modules, it is because the character card of this player is writing a novel that can make him popular, so in order to collect related materials, he goes to the place where some unsolved mysteries occur, so he is blocked by the secret organization or mythical creatures entrenched nearby, so he needs other players to rescue him.

Daily Tang Monk.

Although the profession of "writer" is also quite dangerous in the Cthulhu game lobby, the Cthulhu game lobby has always emphasized that the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish, so this type of player is more likely to come into contact with mythical creatures than other players, and even occasionally meet the Old Ones, but if you really want to have a conversation, you have to wait until the Hound of Tindalos area, so these players can easily go the wrong way.

For example, after this detective novelist wrote that novel, he attracted the attention of a mysterious organization, and then he was absorbed by this mysterious organization as a core member, and finally met an Old One and got the opportunity to write an autobiography for this Old One.

Then, this player tore up the card directly because the san value dropped too quickly. After all, the autobiography of the Old Ones is not so easy to write, but if he can really write this autobiography, then this autobiography will definitely be on the same level as the Book of the Dead.

Therefore, the profession of "writer" typically has a very low lower limit, but a very high upper limit. Sometimes, one can even become the exclusive writer of the old rulers, and by then, one can be considered a divine envoy.

Therefore, Liu Xing felt that his profession of "doctor" might as well be changed to "writer", because in real-world group running games, players as doctors can directly restore the blood volume of other players, but in Cthulhu group running games It is not so convenient in the game lobby, because the Cthulhu Run game lobby is too particular about "reality", so if you, a doctor, want to treat other players, you must have some tools and medicines, otherwise this time Treatment was either greatly compromised or simply unsustainable.

Just when Liu Xing was about to speak, he suddenly felt a little cold on the top of his head.

"Is it raining?"

Liu Xing looked up and found that it was starting to drizzle.

"It seems that Baihe City and others have really found the Scarecrow King."

Zhang Jingxu frowned and said: "Besides, Baihe City and others probably planned to use rockets to deal with the Scarecrow King, so they were targeted by this grid array! It seems that my previous idea was correct. This Scarecrow King is 100% afraid of fire. , so in order to prevent players from taking advantage of this, the lattice array will start raining at the critical moment, greatly reducing the effectiveness of our fire attacks.”

Liu Xing nodded and felt that Zhang Jingxu was right. The Scarecrow King's weakness was still too obvious, so it would be easy for players to pass the level instantly if they didn't make any preparations. The current drizzle was just right. , because firstly, it can greatly reduce the fire attack, and secondly, the impact on players in other aspects is almost zero.

"Then let's go!"

Liu Xing took a deep breath and said seriously: "Since the Grid Formation is not going to let us take advantage of the situation, we can only send the Scarecrow King away in a dignified manner. But Mengyao, you have to remember one thing, that is, you cannot let Baihe City Knowing that you are Li Mengyao, he should also know that Mo Jin is in Chiyou City, so he may guess something!"

"Well, Mengyao, just go and bring the players who came with you, and then blend in with the crowd. If there is nothing wrong, don't stand out. In short, try not to have contact with White River City."

Zhang Jingxu thought for a while and took the player who brought Li Mengyao and others with him to prevent him from spilling the beans in Baihe City.

At this time, the players had enough to eat and drink, so they set off with Liu Xing after a simple cleanup.

Not long after setting off, a player sent by Zhang Jingxu to follow Baihe City ran back.

Just as Zhang Jingxu said, when they first met the Scarecrow King, they prepared to use rockets to capture the thieves and capture the King first. However, as soon as the arrow was ignited, it was extinguished by the sudden drizzle.

Although the drizzle seemed like nothing, it was enough to prevent the rocket from igniting, so Baihe City could only arrange for him to come back and notify Liu Xing and others, so that the large forces could rush to deal with the Scarecrow King as soon as possible.

Because this Scarecrow King seemed to be preparing to take his men to other places, and Baihe City and others also discovered that there were a large number of scarecrows not far away, and they also brought a lot of straw. It seemed that they were preparing to take them with them. Make something with these straws, like make some new scarecrows.

"It seems that we must solve the problem of the Scarecrow King as soon as possible, lest it and its men will become stronger and stronger and threaten us..."

Before Liu Xing finished speaking, he saw a group of people suddenly appearing not far away, and after a brief period of confusion, this group of people focused on their side.

"New here?"

Zhang Jingxu on the side squinted his eyes and said in a serious tone: "Looking at their equipment and demeanor, we have reason to suspect that these people are NPCs, and they should not be our own! To be precise, when we entered the grid formation, Yunqi and the others It doesn’t tell us who the friendly forces are. Of course, more importantly, these NPCs can also provide us with more buffs, so do we need to take action?”

Liu Xing frowned and thought for a while, then said: "No, we absolutely can't take action first, because this will cause a psychological shadow to many players. After all, taking action first and being forced to take action are two different concepts, so we must If we let these NPCs take action first and then we take action, everyone can put down some of their psychological burden; and we still have to see where these NPCs come from and whether there are any opportunities for cooperation, because although we agreed to Yunqi Station On their side, but you don’t necessarily have to sacrifice your life for them.”

In Liu Xing's view, this event will only last for such a short time, and NPCs like Yunqi may not be able to return to the martial arts module, so he does not need to take his promise to Yunqi too seriously. After all, these The promise is not accompanied by a task, so there is no binding force.

So when necessary, Liu Xing felt that he could change his family, but he could never take action against his old club like Yunqi, because this was already his final bottom line.

However, for the sake of safety, Liu Xing still asked the players to prepare for battle, because at first glance, the NPCs on the opposite side must have more than 500 people, and each one has weapons and armor. Although most of them The armor is just cloth armor with a breast shield.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Xing thinks these people are NPCs. Because his group has such a strong bottom card, he got such a little armor from Yunqi.

Moreover, the demeanor of these NPCs is indeed different from that of the players, because the mentality between the two is different. After all, the players know that they have a gold medal of immunity from death in this event. The worst case is to go back to the martial arts module to sleep in advance, so they really don’t know how to write the word death!

But NPCs are different, because they know that on this battlefield, human life is like grass and may be lost at any time. It may be that a stray arrow suddenly finds your head, or a knife accidentally cuts your aorta.

So they will not be as relaxed as the players at this time. . . . More importantly, when players are fighting against players, the weaker party can completely choose to admit defeat. After all, most players cannot kill other players at every turn. Therefore, if you are willing to admit defeat directly, then there is still a way out.

Of course, players like Liu Xing who attacked directly before cannot be left alive. After all, it would be a bit unfair to the players who were sent out of the event by them.

"One thousand to five hundred, our advantage is not that big."

Zhang Jingxu said without looking back: "I have observed some players before. They are a little timid when facing the scarecrow, so we have reason to suspect that these players are slacking off for various reasons, such as they really don't want to hurt people, or..."

This time, before Zhang Jingxu finished speaking, an NPC on the opposite side shot an arrow directly, which landed in front of Liu Xing and others, less than three meters away!

This is an obvious provocation.

Liu Xing's face sank. He didn't expect that the opponent would dare to take the initiative to attack. You have to know that he has a clear advantage in numbers.

It seems that these NPCs are still quite confident in their own strength, so they dare to take the initiative to provoke.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing did not hesitate and asked the players with long-range attack capabilities on his side to be ready. He must get back this place.
