Real Cthulhu Running Game
Chapter 376
Although Liu Xing vaguely guessed an old ruler, but because this old ruler is a relatively unpopular old ruler in Cthulhu mythology, Liu Xing couldn't think of the name of this old ruler, and the specific ability of this old ruler.
Therefore, Liu Xing is not sure whether his idea is right or wrong, so he temporarily gave up thinking about this issue, and collect more information first.
After breakfast, Liu Xing went to the meeting alone and went to Hu Li's clothing store.
However, when Liu Xing walked to the door of Hu Li's clothing store, he began to hesitate. After all, in this module, although the dead can be resurrected, no one wants to die after all, and Liu Xing still has lingering fears about the previous death.
So now Liu Xing is still very worried that Hu Li will directly kill herself if she disagrees with her. . .
But the words had already been spoken, Liu Xing felt that he could never break his promise, so he should retreat, so Liu Xing gritted his teeth and walked into Hu Li's clothing store.
Hu Li's clothing store is open today, Liu Xing saw several customers choosing clothes, after all, Hu Li's clothing store is the only one in Panlong Town, so the business is still good.
But Liu Xing didn't see Hu Li on the first floor, but only saw a girl who looked to be about twenty years old greeting customers. It seemed that this girl should be the waiter that Hu Li had hired.
This waitress looked pretty and handsome, and Liu Xing felt that she should be a normal person, not Hu Li's kind.
At this time, the waiter saw Liu Xing, and after carefully looking at Liu Xing, he stepped forward and said to Liu Xing: "You are Boss Hu's friend, Mr. Meteor. Boss Hu has been waiting upstairs for a long time. Let me tell you to go up directly when I see Mr. Meteor."
The waiter said while pointing to the stairs.
Liu Xing nodded and didn't speak. After all, although Liu Xing could talk to the waiter through mental communication, the waiter should be able to easily tell that he didn't speak Chinese, so there might be troubles at that time.
After all, this can be said to be a superpower.
When Liu Xing walked to the second floor, Liu Xing suddenly remembered one thing, that is why Hu Li arranged for the waiter to wait for him downstairs, and he also knew that he would definitely come, not Zhang Jingxu and the others.
Most importantly, Hu Li also described her appearance to the waiter, so the waiter was able to recognize herself. This is very strange, or very scary, because at this point in time, Hu Li should not know herself.
After all, according to Hu Li's self-report, at most she can only detect the existence of her group through smell, and monitor her group's course of action, but Liu Xing doesn't think that Hu Li can determine a person's image through smell.
So to sum up, Liu Xing feels that Hu Li at this point in time should have changed from the Hu Li at the previous point in time.
But this also made Liu Xing heave a sigh of relief, because judging from the current situation, at this point in time, Hu Li was willing to sit down and have a good chat with him, otherwise he would not have specially arranged a waiter to receive him.
Therefore, Liu Xing took a deep breath and stepped into Hu Li's house.
Because the last time he stepped into Hu Li's house, he immediately lost consciousness, so Liu Xing didn't know the specific furnishings of Hu Li's house. Now that he entered Hu Li's house this time, Liu Xing couldn't help but look around first, wanting to see what the vixen's house would look like.
But soon Liu Xing was disappointed, because the layout of Hu Li's house was no different from that of ordinary people's house, and it was simpler. Except for some necessary furniture, there was nothing else, let alone any decorations.
At this time, Hu Li was sitting on the sofa in the hall, with a pot of tea on the tea table in front of her.
Liu Xing became vigilant in an instant. After all, lessons from the past told Liu Xing that this pot of tea might not taste good.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing sat across from Hu Li nervously, and made up his mind that today I, Liu Xing, would die of thirst, even if I jumped from the third floor, I would not take a sip of the tea made by Hu Li.
Liu Xing felt that this was a grand banquet, and he had thrown himself into a trap.
Before Liu Xing could speak, Hu Li poured out a cup of tea and placed it in front of Liu Xing.
Seeing this situation, Liu Xing quickly shook his head and said with a smile: "Miss Hu Li, you are too polite. I just had breakfast and drank a lot of soy milk. I am not too thirsty now."
Just like what Liu Xing thought, Hu Li was not surprised that Liu Xing could communicate with her spiritually, and instead took it for granted.
"Mr. Meteor, are you worried that I will poison you again? Please drink it this time with peace of mind. I did not poison this pot of tea. After all, Mr. Meteor, you should know this. If I really want to harm you, poisoning is not the only method, and poisoning is not the best method."
Liu Xing nodded. Since Hu Li said so, then I have to drink this cup of tea even if I don't drink it. After all, what Hu Li said is right. In terms of Hu Li's ability, if she wants to deal with her, she doesn't need to poison her, and there is no need to poison her.
What's more, I came to negotiate with Hu Li today, so no matter what I said, I had to give Hu Li face and drank this cup of tea.
I have to say that Liu Xing felt that the tea made by Hu Li was really fragrant.
After Liu Xing drank a cup of tea, he expressed the question in his heart, "Miss Hu Li, logically speaking, you should not know me. At most, you know that I am just a foreigner who suddenly appeared and lived in Hu Cang's house, so?"
Hu Li understood what Liu Xing wanted to ask, so she said with a smile: "That's right, as you said, Mr. Meteor, logically I don't know your specific situation, but since the time and space in Panlong Town are now disordered, some things cannot be calculated by common sense."
Liu Xing frowned. He didn't expect that Hu Li knew so much at this point in time, even the time and space disorder in Panlong Town.
But Liu Xing also reacted quickly, guessing how Hu Li knew this.
If there is no accident, after Hu Li killed herself at the previous point in time, she left the information on her body through some special means, and then when she was resurrected at this point in time, the information left on her body was automatically passed on to Hu Li at this point in time.
From this point of view, Hu Li has a lot of means.
Therefore, Liu Xing is now even more afraid of Hu Li.
Hu Li can naturally see Liu Xing's fear of her, so Hu Li said with a smile: "Mr. Meteor, I know that I did some bad things to you and your friends at the previous point, but I believe that you, Mr. Meteor, should be able to understand my good intentions, so Mr. Meteor, you should not blame me."
Now that Hu Li has already said that, Liu Xing can only say against his will: "Of course, I know that the reason why Miss Hu Li killed us last time is because of some misunderstandings between us, but now the misunderstanding between you and us, Miss Hu Li, should be considered resolved."
Hu Li nodded, and said: "Of course, after all, I will definitely not lie to me, so I have now understood the current situation. I didn't expect that I would be trapped in a space with disordered time and space. If it weren't for your appearance, Mr. Meteor, I'm afraid I would have been kept in the dark for the rest of my life. But Mr. Meteor, do you want to know how I conveyed the information from the previous time point to this time point?"
Liu Xing was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect that Hu Li was willing to confess to him, which surprised Liu Xing.
But it was an accident, Liu Xing still nodded and said, "Of course I think I know."
Hu Li chuckled, poured another cup of tea for Liu Xing, and said, "The reason is this, because our fox family has a special spell, or a racial talent, which can transmit information in the form of smell, and it can last for a long time, so I left some information on you, Mr. Meteor, at a previous point in time, so when I found out that you suddenly appeared at Hu Cang's house yesterday, I got those information."
"The reason why I am telling the truth to you, Mr. Meteor, and I am willing to tell you this reason is because I want to cooperate with you, Mr. Meteor. After all, the ignorant is fearless. Before that, I didn't know what happened in Panlong Town, and I didn't know that Panlong Town fell into time-space chaos. So I didn't think there was any problem, but now that I know the truth, I feel that I have to do something to change the current situation."
"After all, I used to be able to live in this time-space disordered Beaulieu town for no reason, but now I don't want to live this kind of life anymore, so I want to cooperate with you, Mr. Meteor. After all, we have the same goal, and you should know my ability. I will definitely not hold you back. So in the future, before each time-space disorder occurs, I hope you can come to me, Mr. Meteor, so that I can update the information on you."
After listening to what Hu Li said, Liu Xing couldn't help smelling his body, and found that there was indeed a faint fragrance on his body.
Liu Xing thought for a while and said with a smile: "Since you have said so, Miss Hu Li, of course we are willing to cooperate with you, Miss Hu Li. After all, Miss Hu Li, you are more powerful than us alone, and you know more about the situation in Panlong Town than we do. But I want to ask, Miss Hu Li, you will not give me another knife this time just to leave a message on me."
Hu Li shook her head and said, "Of course not. I just need to touch your skin, Mr. Meteor. As for why I chose to kill you, Mr. Meteor, at the previous point in time, it was because I wanted to test whether what you said, Mr. Meteor, was true. If you can come back from the dead and pass the information to me, it means that what you said, Mr. Meteor, is true. Otherwise, it means that what you said, Mr. Meteor, is a lie, and then you will die."
"As for the situation in Panlong Town, I do know much more than you, Mr. Meteor. And to be honest, when Mr. Meteor passed the information to me, I seem to have recovered a lot of memory. I mean, I now recall some things that will happen in the future. I have recovered some of the memories until 2000 years ago. From the current memory, I found that the demons and ghosts currently entrenched in Panlong Town should have appeared after the time-space confusion in Panlong Town."
Liu Xing raised his brows. He didn't expect Hu Li to recover his memory, but this is also a good thing...
"At first, I thought that fanatic, like me, would be a monster in human form. After all, as far as I know, many monsters do have a way to be resurrected from the dead, but according to my observations, the situation of that fanatic is very strange. He is indeed a human being, but his body has mutated to a certain extent. According to your human beings, this fanatic is already neither human nor ghost, and I can feel a strange energy hidden in his body. The reason for the resurrection."
Liu Xing nodded. According to Hu Li, this fanatic should have been injected with some kind of energy by the old ruler, and thus transformed into an immortal body. This also made Liu Xing re-guess the identity of the old ruler.
But now that Hu Li is here, Liu Xing felt that it would be better for him to ask Hu Li if he knew the situation of the old ruler. After all, it would be hopeless for him to guess here alone.
...
When he heard the name "Graaki", Liu Xing instantly recalled the relevant information about this old ruler, and affirmed that what happened in Beaulieu Town should be what Graki did.
In the Cthulhu Mythos, there are still quite a few Old Ones, but since there are famous Old Ones like Cthulhu and Hasta, then there are less famous Old Ones like Graki.
In the setting of Cthulhu Mythos, Glaaki inhabits a lake in the Severn Valley (a fictional region) near Brichester, England.
And the setting of this Severn Valley is also very interesting, because the Severn Valley can be said to be a very rare gathering place for the Old Ones in the Cthulhu mythology, because most of the Old Ones are solitary, each occupying an area, and there are at least five Old Ones dormant in the Severn Valley (other Old Ones will come out later), and Glaaki is one of them.
Glaaki has a title called "Inhabitant of the Lake". This is because Glaaki was sealed in a meteorite and came to the earth. After landing, the meteorite shattered, and Glaaki was freed. Therefore, Glaaki is a rare free body among the old rulers. Therefore, in addition to the lakes in the Severn Valley, lakes in other parts of the world also reported the existence of Glaaki. This is the origin of the title of "Inhabitant of the Lake". Not quite sure.
Glaaki's appearance is also very unique, similar to a huge three-eyed slug-like creature, the whole body is covered with metal spikes, these spikes look a bit inorganic, in fact, these spikes have an organic structure, can grow when necessary, and these spikes are also hollow, because Glaaki needs to transport some unknown liquid through these spikes.
As a wise Old One, Glaaki is also one of the few Old Ones who will actively develop the existence of believers.
Like Cthulhu, Glaaki can influence humans through dreams, thereby attracting its chosen believers to the Severn Valley. However, Glaaki has special conditions for selecting believers. Only those who wish to live forever can become Glaaki's believers.
That's right, Glaaki can indeed make his believers live forever. As long as Glaaki stabs the spikes on his body into the believer's body, and then injects some unknown liquid, he can make the believer live forever, but Glaaki can also gain control of the believer's body.
Therefore, these believers who have been "blessed" by Glaaki are not so much immortality as they have become walking corpses driven by Glaaki. After a period of time, the bodies of these believers will mutate and become very sensitive to sunlight. In severe cases, they will even be wiped out.
