Real Cthulhu Running Game

"It's Shoggoth." Alice said.

Then, Alice told everyone present about the situation of Shoggoth.

Zhang Jingxu also made a look of sudden realization at this time, and said: "So, these mythical creatures are Shoggoths. I once heard my master say that Shoggoths are very strange mythical creatures. Unlike other mythical creatures that only appear in specific environments, Shoggoths can appear in various places around the world. No matter in deserts, icebergs, oceans or rainforests, Shoggoths can be found. There is a connection between them, my master originally thought that Shoggoth was a kind of alchemy creature made by magicians."

Alice nodded and said sympathetically, "That's right. Before that, my master also thought that Shoggoths were probably magical creatures created by ancient magicians, because many powerful magicians have several Shoggoths as their servants, and many magicians have created spells that can tame Shoggoths. I didn't expect that Shoggoths are related to the ancients, but this is normal. The ancients are a very mysterious race."

Unknowingly, the topic went off track.

But Zhang Jingxu quickly realized that he still had the letter in his hand after all.

Therefore, Zhang Jingxu coughed lightly and said, "Well, let's continue with the content of this letter. Back to the topic, some villagers in Fisherman's Village discovered that Shoggoth had escaped from that sinkhole, so the villagers in Fisherman's Village didn't dare to explore that sinkhole. After all, everyone was afraid of being attacked by Shoggoth, but everyone has seen it. The village is very likely to be wiped out, and you won’t be able to run away even if you want to.”

"So Kenji Inoue took the courage to find a few courageous villagers in the Fisherman's Village. After making some preparations, he prepared to explore the tiankeng. However, Kenji Inoue still didn't dare to go directly into the tiankeng. After all, the tiankeng couldn't be seen to the bottom at first glance, not to mention that the surrounding area of ​​the tiankeng was covered with black unknown liquid, which was scary no matter how you looked at it."

"So, Kenji Inoue and his team planned to dig next to the tiankeng, digging from the side to the tiankeng. What Kenji Inoue didn't expect was that they dug down about one meter before falling into a tunnel. This shocked Kenji Inoue and his team, because the villagers of Fisherman's Village have lived on this small island for so many years, and they have never discovered that there is such a well-connected tunnel under their feet."

"The sudden appearance of the tunnel caught Inoue Kenji and his team by surprise, so they had to temporarily return to the ground to make plans again. However, at this moment, Matsui Ichiro suddenly stood up and said that he knew what was in the underground of the Fisherman's Village, and told Inoue Kenji that only he could deal with the monsters underground in the Fisherman's Village."

"Although Inoue Kenji expressed doubts about this, after all, in Inoue Kenji's opinion, Matsui Ichiro is a charlatan, but because of what Matsui Ichiro said there was very clear, Inoue Kenji could only express his willingness to listen to Matsui Ichiro's suggestion, but at this time Matsui Ichiro discussed the conditions with Inoue Kenji. As long as Inoue Kenji is willing to let Matsui Ichiro build a so-called shrine in the fisherman's village, Matsui Ichiro will tell Inoue Kenji the truth."

"Before this, Ichiro Matsui expressed his hope more than once to build a temple. The temple is just a big house, but the symbolic meaning of this temple is self-evident. Therefore, as the actual village head of the Fisherman's Village at that time, Kenji Inoue naturally refused to agree to Ichiro Matsui's request to prevent Ichiro Matsui from expanding his influence in the Fisherman's Village."

"But now, because Kenji Inoue is worried that there is something terrible in the sinkhole, which will cause a devastating blow to the Fisherman's Village, Kenji Inoue finally had to agree to Ichiro Matsui's conditions. Ichiro Matsui then revealed the situation underground in the Fisherman's Village. Simply put, the Fisherman's Village is built on a small island used by the Sea God to imprison monsters, and these monsters are a group of traitors who betrayed the Sea God."

Hearing this, Liu Xing couldn't help raising his brows, and said, "This is a bit interesting. Ichiro Matsui's so-called truth is really close to the truth. After all, the ancients have been living in the ocean, possessing powerful strength and technology. It is not an exaggeration to be called the ocean. Moreover, this Shoggoth may have betrayed the ancient. Otherwise, he would not have been locked up at the bottom of the underground ruins by the ancient, and the ancient also invented a device specially used to control the shoggoth."

Ishikawa Ling shook his head and said with a smile: "But Matsui Ichiro probably wouldn't know about Shoggoths and the ancients, so I think this can only be regarded as a cliché by Matsui Ichiro, or a temporary lie."

Zhang Jingxu nodded, and said seriously: "That's right, just like Ishikawa Ling said, Inoue Kenji also felt that Matsui Ichiro was fooling himself, so Inoue Kenji angrily reprimanded Matsui Ichiro's behavior, but what Inoue Kenji didn't expect was that Matsui Ichiro smeared the black unknown liquid on the edge of the tiankeng on his left hand, and then directly roasted his left hand with the torch he had prepared."

"Hold the grass." Everyone was shocked when they heard this, they didn't expect Ichiro Matsui to be such a ruthless person.

However, the players present all know that the characteristics of Shoggoth include halving the fire damage received, and the liquid on the surface of Shoggoth may indeed have the same effect.

Therefore, Liu Xing reckoned that Matsui Ichiro should have studied the effects of those black unknown liquids at that time, so he dared to risk his life so reassuringly and boldly.

Zhang Jingxu sighed, and said with some admiration: "It seems that Matsui Ichiro is quite courageous and dared to do this, but I think Matsui Ichiro should have been prepared for this, otherwise he would not have dared to play so big. In short, returning to the content of the letter, Matsui Ichiro put his left hand on the torch for about ten seconds, and then took it up to show everyone. Inoue Kenji only found that Matsui Ichiro's left hand was slightly red, and there was no burn."

"As for the black unknown liquid in Ichiro Matsui's hand, it has completely disappeared. At this time, Ichiro Matsui put on a show and said that although these monsters have betrayed the Sea God, the Sea God gave these monsters the ability to be immune to fire damage. After all, the Sea God and the Vulcan are naturally incompatible."

"Thus, although Inoue Kenji still felt that Matsui Ichiro was making things up, but because the other villagers were persuaded by Matsui Ichiro, Inoue Kenji could only choose to believe Matsui Ichiro's words, and asked Matsui Ichiro for a way to deal with Shoggoths. Matsui Ichiro spread his hands, saying that he had no way to deal with Shoggoths. After all, although this monster betrayed the Sea God, it is not something humans can deal with."

"As soon as Ichiro Matsui said this, the villagers of Fisherman's Village were filled with grief, and they all expressed their desire to leave Fisherman's Village to find another way out. After all, according to Ichiro Matsui, human beings have no power to resist in front of Shoggoths, so if Shoggoth makes a move, Fisherman's Village will definitely perish. Therefore, only by leaving Fisherman's Village now can we avoid the attack of Shoggoths."

"However, in the eyes of Kenji Inoue, it turned out that Matsui Ichiro wanted to lure the villagers of the Fisherman's Village away from their homeland, and then use this to weaken his influence in the Fisherman's Village, and finally replaced them. Therefore, Kenji Inoue immediately stood up and said that Shoggoth did not launch an attack at the beginning, which means that Shoggoth is not capable of dealing with the Fisherman's Village now. Therefore, Kenji Inoue advocated the first attack and went into the sinkhole to eliminate Shoggoth. After all, judging from Ichiro Matsui's performance , those black unknown liquids are not harmful."

"At this time, Ichiro Matsui naturally stood up to stop Kenji Inoue, but because Ichiro Matsui's influence in Fisherman's Village was still inferior to Kenji Inoue's, Kenji Inoue's proposal was supported by the villagers of Fisherman's Village. After all, no one wanted to leave their hometown, so Kenji Inoue organized an adventure team of ten people and brought the best weapons in the village, that is, some old shotguns and harpoons into the tunnel."

"After entering the tunnels, Inoue Kenji realized that these tunnels were dug out by Shoggoths, because the walls of the tunnels were covered with that kind of black unknown liquid, and it gave off a foul smell. It didn't take long for villagers to say that they had difficulty breathing and nausea, and Inoue Kenji's condition was not much better, so Inoue Kenji chose to leave the tunnels temporarily."

"After returning to the ground, Ichiro Matsui saw Kenji Inoue coming back so soon, so he taunted Kenji Inoue. Inoue Kenji was already a little irritable because of the Shoggoth incident, so he almost went up and beat up Ichiro Matsui. Fortunately, the surrounding villagers stopped Kenji Inoue. As for Ichiro Matsui, he chose to run away. After all, Ichiro Matsui was in his forties and fifties at the time, so he must not be able to beat a strong fisherman like Kenji Inoue. "

"After driving Matsui Ichiro away, Inoue Kenji went home and brought a small oxygen cylinder and a set of diving equipment. These things were naturally given to Inoue Kenji by Li Yongjie. After all, Inoue Kenji was a fisherman and needed these things very much. So shortly after Li Yongjie left the Fisherman's Village, he found an acquaintance who was the captain to send these things to Inoue Kenji."

"After making preparations, Kenji Inoue came to the tunnel again to explore the unknown underground world. It is worth mentioning that Kenji Inoue said in his letter that the first time he entered the tunnel alone, he had only one thought in his mind, which was great regret. After all, there might be Shoggoths in this tunnel, and Kenji Inoue felt that he must have no way to deal with Shoggoth with his own ability."

"So, Kenji Inoue is wondering whether he should move on. If he chooses to move forward, he may encounter Shoggoths, and he may die. If he chooses to leave the tunnel, Kenji Inoue can be sure that he will be ridiculed by Ichiro Matsui. At that time, his prestige in the Fisherman's Village will probably plummet. In the end, because Kenji Inoue is a person with a good face, he finally chose to move on."

Hearing this, Lu Tianya couldn't help but said to Zhang Jingxu: "It seems that this Kenji Inoue is very similar to you. They are the kind of people who don't even risk their lives for the sake of face. It seems that if we can leave the Fisherman's Village alive this time, I will definitely buy an insurance for you, so that I might be able to get rich overnight."

Zhang Jingxu, who was lying on the gun, frowned, shook his head and said, "No, no, I'm not like Kenji Inoue. Although face is important as a man, life is more important. If my life is not in danger, I will definitely focus on face.

Yep, another bite of dog food.

Liu Xing looked at Zhang Jingxu with such an expression, and said helplessly: "Hey, Zhang Jingxu, can you pay attention to the current situation, we are discussing life and death, so stop flirting here."

Zhang Jingxu blushed, and quickly said: "Well, after Kenji Inoue made his decision, he began to explore the tunnels. He recorded the direction of these tunnels carefully, and drew a map after leaving the tunnel, which is the piece of paper on the table. Although Kenji Inoue entered the tunnel many times without encountering Shoggoths, Kenji Inoue still heard the sound of Shoggoths moving. A distance of one or two meters, this can scare Inoue Kenji directly to the ground."

"Fortunately, Kenji Inoue did not encounter Shoggoth head-on, and Kenji Inoue continued to enter the tunnel during this period, which further enhanced Kenji Inoue's influence in the Fisherman's Village. However, what made Kenji Inoue feel strange was that his wife was behaving strangely recently, which made Kenji Inoue suspect that someone came to seduce his wife while he was entering the tunnel."

"Then one night, when Kenji Inoue got up to go to the toilet, he found that his wife was not at home. This made Kenji Inoue feel bad. He immediately left the house and followed his wife's footprints to a beach. Across the grass, Kenji Inoue heard his wife seem to be talking to someone else."
