Real Cthulhu Running Game

Is it a dead end?

Liu Xing sighed silently, knowing that he might be deceiving himself, because it might just be a text error.

After all, in many early games, text errors would occur for various reasons, among which translation problems were the most common error.

There's no way around it. Many early games relied on the passion of private translation groups, so inaccurate translations are understandable, and no one will say anything, because it's better to have something than nothing, right?

Of course, there is also the possibility that the game production team wrote the wrong text at the very beginning. After all, in some languages, one word can represent several meanings, and two or three of these meanings can be used normally in many situations, so it is normal to mix them up.

The most important thing is that game production is usually completed by the cooperation of multiple groups such as planners and programmers, but they will only communicate with each other at certain times. At other times, they will advance their work based on the notes and requirements provided by other groups, so some misjudgments are inevitable, resulting in inconsistencies between the text and the actual presentation.

This is something that is very likely to happen in today's martial arts module. After all, this martial arts module is co-written by a group of players, so it is normal to have some mistakes, especially when the designers of the four-winged giant eagle and the mimicry plant are not the same person. When they hand over this task involving the four-winged giant eagle and the mimicry plant, it is normal for various problems to arise. These text errors are already relatively minor mistakes.

Therefore, it is normal for ambiguity to arise here. The only problem is that if you want to take a gamble on whether this is ambiguous or not, the price you have to pay is very high.

Tear the card.

Many players will tear up the cards!

As the leader of the alliance, Liu Xing didn't dare to gamble with the lives of these players. After all, he would be criticized in the forum for several months.

Take a gamble?

"Take a gamble" is an indispensable part of the Cthulhu role-playing game lobby. It can be said that no player has never said these three words, so Liu Xing remembers that after so many years, he must have said these three words dozens of times.

But I don’t know if Ao Guanhai was helping behind the scenes. In any case, Liu Xing’s “gamble” almost always ended with a good outcome.

So Liu Xing is actually not afraid to "take a gamble", but every time he really wants to "take a gamble", he is still worried that he will lose completely.

Gamble on the dog, gamble on the dog, and in the end you will have nothing.

This sentence is a truth that all players in the Cthulhu role-playing game lobby will recognize, because you can complete countless modules in the Cthulhu role-playing game lobby, obtain a large number of props and your own growth, and meet many useful NPCs, but maybe there is just a problem with a certain judgment, and all of this will disappear.

So when it comes to "taking a gamble", Liu Xing is actually very hesitant, especially when he has plenty of time to think about it like now... Therefore, Liu Xing has always felt that he has a procrastination problem, and it is a very serious procrastination problem. Sometimes he will not do certain things or make certain decisions until the last minute.

Ah, let others make the decision.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Xing decided not to make such a costly choice himself, because Liu Xing didn't think that his slender waist could bear such a heavy pot.

"Ahem, everyone, be quiet for a moment."

"Seventy percent?"

After hesitating for a moment, Meng Fugui and the others did not raise any objection to the figure of "70%", because their current idea was similar to Liu Xing's, that is, they wanted to take a gamble, but the cost of losing was too high, and not to mention that they alone could not afford the price, even if all of them were tied together, they would not be able to bear the consequences of failure.

Therefore, Meng Fugui and others were very clear about Liu Xing’s thoughts at the time. Therefore, in order to distribute the blame that one or several people needed to bear to at least 70% of the people, the remaining 30% of the players would have no chance to say anything.

"Okay, let's wait two more minutes, and then we'll vote by raising our hands. If you want to participate in the plot, just raise your hands."

After Liu Xing finished speaking, he picked up his teacup and sipped it slowly. Because after the number of players in the alliance reached the upgrade conditions, the alliance hall had a magical function, that is, ordinary tea brought in from outside would immediately change from a 500-gram bag of low-priced tea to a 500-gram bag of sky-high-priced tea after brewing!

In short, the Alliance Hall allows you to drink good tea of ​​the quality of five thousand yuan for only five yuan. Therefore, in the past two days, many players like to stay in the Alliance Hall to drink tea when they have nothing to do. Because the tea that costs five thousand yuan a cup is really delicious, they all say that the mother tree of Dahongpao in the real world is no more delicious.

Although the mother tree of Dahongpao in the real world only produces a small amount of tea every year, this does not prevent the players in the Cthulhu game hall from drinking it, because the players in the Cthulhu game hall are all very skilled and have their own magical powers.

Some players directly purchase props in the Cthulhu role-playing game lobby, which allows them to obtain the Dahongpao tea leaves from thousands of miles away, or simply wear optical invisibility clothes to sneak around.

In addition, some players drank these good teas in the module, because for those mysterious organizations related to mythical creatures, it is not easy to get these teas. . . . Even in the forum, some players mentioned that the mall sometimes puts some high-value items in the real world on the shelves, and the prices are quite cheap, at least higher than the ratio of points directly converted into cash.

So have some good tea.

In addition to the tea in the alliance hall becoming more delicious and more elders and elite positions in the alliance, there is also a very interesting upgrade reward: the alliance leader can mark an area, and the size of this area depends on the total combat power of the alliance.

So what is the use of marking areas?

That is, when players from other alliances enter this area, all players in the alliance will receive corresponding prompts. However, the prompts here will be relatively general, and will not indicate the specific number of people and the directions from which these players entered the area. Therefore, this marked area is equivalent to inserting an eye, but this eye cannot provide vision.

But it is worth noting that the effect of this marking area is only effective for players. If an NPC enters this area, the prompt will not be triggered. In addition, there is a one-day cooldown period for this marking area, and only one area can be marked at a time. In Liu Xing's view, this function is a waste - it is tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away.

Anyway, Liu Xing thought about it for a long time and felt that this function could only be used as an alarm when the two armies were fighting, to prevent the opposing players from attacking him. . . But the problem was that the players at this time were limited in strength, so although the attack was to defeat the strong with the weak, we couldn't really arrange a group of weak people to attack, right?

That's not a sneak attack, that's giving away your life.

Moreover, Liu Xing also checked the approximate range of the marked area, that is, based on the current total combat power of the alliance, this marked area is a circle with a radius of 500 meters, which seems to be quite large, but the diameter is only one thousand meters, so if two armies are fighting, this one thousand meters can only stably cover one gate of the camp. Of course, if it is a little bit more, it can still cover two gates, which means that the opposing players still have the opportunity to bypass these two gates and launch a sneak attack.

It is useful, but not very useful. Unless the alliance can be improved and the total combat power is raised to a higher level, there will be a chance to cover the entire camp.

"Okay, time's up."

Liu Xing cleared his throat and said, "Everyone can make their own decision now, so please decide whether to raise your hand within ten seconds."

Liu Xing raised his hand right after he finished speaking. "By the way, whether I raise my hand or not will not be counted in the total votes. Just treat me as a mascot, because I know that as the leader of the alliance, I still have a certain reputation in your eyes, so the decision I make will definitely affect your decision. After all, if I raise my hand, you will follow me and raise your hand unless you are determined not to raise your hand, because you will be afraid of becoming a minority."

As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, Yin En, the supporting actor, also stood up and said, "The leader is right. You definitely can't make a choice now, because we don't know if you are the kind of petty person. If we make a different choice from you, will you come after us later? After all, you may not remember those people who made the same choice as you, but you can definitely remember those players who made a different choice from you."

Hearing Yin En say this, Liu Xing couldn't help but raise a finger, causing the players present to burst into laughter, but this also made the originally tense atmosphere become cheerful.

That's the right way.

"Come on, everyone can make your own choice."

Liu Xing slapped the table and made a "please" gesture.

In the first three seconds, all the players present were still motionless, because the decision they needed to make today was really difficult. After all, the known information was not enough for people to make a correct decision. They could only decide whether to take the risk based on whether they wanted to deposit their money in a fixed deposit or invest in stocks.

By the way, Liu Xing is a staunch saver, although his savings never exceeded four digits before entering the Cthulhu game lobby.

There was no other way. Liu Xing had never worked at that time and could only rely on support from his family to make a living.

From the fourth second on, some players could not help but raise their hands, but this did not include important figures of the alliance such as Yin En, because they knew that although their reputation could not match Liu Xing's, the decision they made at this time could still affect the decision-making of some people. After all, compared to Liu Xing, who was a hands-off boss, Yin En and others would usually come into contact with many players, so these players were also observing Yin En and others' every move at this time, ready to advance and retreat with them.

However, some people really want to take a gamble, because they all know that although this martial arts module also has many dangers, it is definitely more friendly than other modules overall, and what they have seen and heard in the past two or three months has also proved this, so they can really take a gamble.

The most important thing is, since this is a plot rather than a mission, it means that players should be able to change their minds halfway, which can be summed up in four words - run away if the wind blows!

As long as you see that the situation is not good, just turn around and retreat. Anyway, this is not a task that must be completed, so as long as you run fast enough, the problem will not be too big.

So when a few people raised their hands, many other players began to follow suit. As for Yin En and Meng Fugui, they also raised their hands at the last minute at about the eighth second. After they raised their hands, they immediately led a group of people to raise their hands.

Eighty percent.
