Real Cthulhu Running Game

If he hadn't known what Shimazu Nakano had done to let himself live another life, Liu Xing might have believed Shimazu Nakano's lies. However, Liu Xing still drank tea with a smile on his face.

At this moment, Shimazu Nakano's cell phone suddenly rang.

Shimazu Nakano glanced at his phone and said, "Time flies really fast. An hour has passed like this, so if you don't have any other questions, I'll send you back now."

Sawada Yayin looked at Liu Xing and the others. After seeing Liu Xing and the others shaking their heads and indicating that they had no other problems, Sawada Yayin stood up with his notebook and followed Shimazu Nakano to the open area of ​​the ward.

Liu Xing and the other three naturally followed closely behind.

What followed was a familiar set of operations, with Shimadzu Nakano opening a new special channel.

"Don't worry, everyone, as long as you don't touch the sides and top of the special passage, it will be impossible for Konggui to enter the special passage to harm you, so everyone, we will meet tomorrow, and I will also arrange for that boy from Nagano to come Pick you up." Shimazu Nakano said with a smile.

Sawada Yayin nodded, and took Liu Xing and the others into the special passage again. This time they returned to the previous room without incident.

Seeing Liu Xing and others returning safely, Shimazu Nagano said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry everyone, I forgot to tell you some of the shortcomings of the special passage, which caused you to be frightened by the empty ghost."

After Shimazu Nagano finished speaking, he made a ninety-degree bow that is the standard of the island country.

Seeing Shimazu Nagano's sincere attitude, Liu Xing naturally would not be unreasonable and just smiled and let it go.

Ever since, after Shimazu Nagano packed up the long sword, he changed a car to take Liu Xing and others back to Sawada Manor.

However, along the way, Sawada Yaon did not forget to ask Shimazu Nagano what the purpose of going to Nagoya was. After all, if Shimazu Nagano just wanted to brush up his presence, he could arrange for a member of the Shimadzu family at will. member to go to Nagoya instead of letting his number one ninja make the trip.

Of course, in today's era, ninjas are actually bodyguards in the dark, so Liu Xing was thinking about a question after learning the cause and consequences of Shimazu Nakano's accident - if Shimazu Nagano was at the scene at that time, who was the one who was ganged up by the public faction? The controlling Shimadzu family members may only be able to say one or two words before they are decisively understood by Shimazu Nagano.

Therefore, there must be some ulterior reasons why Shimazu Nagano was arranged to go to Nagoya by Shimazu Nakano.

However, Yaon Sawada used the favor to repay the favor and pretended to casually ask Shimazu Nagano why he went to Nagoya and whether being forced to return to Osaka early this time would delay anything. These few words forced Shimazu Nagano into a trap. silence.

Sawada Yaon, Liu Xing and others were not in a hurry and looked at Shimazu Nagano in silence, increasing Shimazu Nagano's psychological pressure.

After a while, Shimazu Nagano sighed and said: "Yes, the reason why I was arranged by the master of the family to go to Nagoya is not only to represent the top brass of the samurai faction to distribute rewards to the heroes of Nagoya, but also for another purpose. In order to obtain a jurisdiction for the Shimadzu family - Atsuta Shrine, because there is a secret room underground at Atsuta Shrine. There are many good things in this secret room. Of course, the most important thing is that these good things are all famous. Basically Xiadu has left its name in history, so the head of the family is very interested in these things."

"Oh, that's true. There are indeed a lot of magic props called cultural relics stored in Atsuta Shrine, but I heard that those things have been banned by a certain outsider. The only way to crack them is the royal family. Unless someone knows about it, others can only crack the ban through other methods, but this requires the cracker to be far more powerful than that worldly expert. So even if your Shimazu family obtains those things, you only get It’s just some cultural relics, and they are the kind of cultural relics whose origins are unknown and prone to accidents." Sawada Yaon said with some confusion.

Shimazu Nagano nodded and said seriously: "Yes, I think so too. Although these things look very good and can bring the overall strength of our Shimazu family to a higher level, this is just a look. It just looks good. After all, these things can't be used by us at all, so these things are just decorations to put it bluntly. Therefore, I don't understand why the head of the family cares so much about the things in Atsuta Shrine..."

Before Shimazu Nagano could finish speaking, Sawada Yaon suddenly interrupted: "Could it be that Mr. Nakano already knows how to unlock the restriction?"

Shimazu Nagano immediately shook his head and said: "How is that possible? Miss Sawada, you should also know very well that the method of cracking these restrictions is actually only known by that adult, because that adult and the outsider who set the restrictions But they are good brothers who have gone through life and death together, but that gentleman was injured by Dagon and Hydra a long time ago, and has been silently healing in the dark for these years, so let alone the head of the family, even the current royal family members There is no way to meet that adult, so let alone learn from that adult how to break the restriction."

Shimazu Nagano paused, shook his head and said: "After all, those things that are prohibited are magic props that are most suitable for us humans to use. And since Miss Sawada, you have agreed to cooperate with our Shimazu family, then Ze Miss Tian, ​​you should know the existence of the Underworld, so let me tell you this, these prohibited things actually come from the Underworld."

Hearing what Shimadzu Nagano said, not only Sawada Yaon, but also Liu Xing and others couldn't help but raise their eyebrows, because Shimadzu Nagano's words contained a lot of information.

First of all, "that lord" in Shimazu Nagano's mouth is most likely an ancient god. Otherwise, it would be impossible to escape from Dagon and Hydra. After all, Dagon and Hydra teamed up to The strength can already crush some lower-ranking old rulers, but the most important thing is that the relationship between this ancient god and the island king's royal family should be unusual, otherwise he would not be recuperating on the island king's royal family's territory now.

In addition, the master outside the world who is the brother of "that lord" should also be an ancient god, and he should have returned to the dreamland now. As for the magic props that he has set restrictions on, maybe It was made by this ancient god, and it was probably specially customized for humans.

But having said that, Liu Xing knows that Dagon and Hydra have been missing for a long time, so Liu Xing has some doubts that the disappearance of Dagon and Hydra may be related to "that adult". Maybe Dagon and Hydra are now there The Kingdom of Huangquan in a dreamland.

Of course, Liu Xing would rather call it heaven.

"I see, but now I don't even understand why Mr. Nakano wants to control Atsuta Shrine. This is a completely thankless job. Moreover, when the public faction controlled Atsuta Shrine before, they didn't dare to do anything. Do it." Sawada Yaon said with narrowed eyes.

After Shimazu Nagano was silent for a moment, he sighed again and said: "In the final analysis, I am just the bodyguard of the master of the house, so I don't know what the master of the house is thinking about some things..."

Sawada Yayin shook his head and asked no more questions.

Soon, Liu Xing and others returned to Zetian Manor. Although it was already midnight, Zhang Jingxu and others were still waiting for Liu Xing and others to come back in the living room. However, because it was indeed too late now, After Yaon Sawada briefly talked about the cooperation with the Shimadzu family, he asked everyone to go back to their rooms to rest. After all, in a few hours, he and his group would have to go see Shimazu Nakano in an open and honest manner. .

Therefore, Liu Xing and other players gathered together again by coincidence, except for Yin En.

After a while, Yin En came in with the notebook and said: "This notebook is a mission item. When we enter the range of Miskatonic University, the promotion module will be automatically triggered. After completing this module, we will You can be promoted to the Cthulhu area, but this promotion module must have ten players to participate in it before it can be officially activated, which means we have to find two more players to participate in this module."

"Ten-player module, it seems that the difficulty of this module is a bit high, but the remaining two players are not easy to find. First of all, these two players must be players in the Hounds of Tindalos area like us, and These two players must also gain the trust of at least half of the eight of us, otherwise we are likely to be tricked by these two players in this difficult promotion module." Ding Kun He said with a frown.

Liu Xing nodded and said seriously: "And we have to consider the professions and specialties of these two players. It is best for them to further complement our shortcomings. Although our team seems to have tanks and support now, output, and there are special talents like Shi Zixuan who can win unexpectedly, but if we really want to find a shortcoming, it is that our team only has one spell output point, Zhang Jingxu, and the output is not very stable, so if we can We need to find a truly professional mage player; in addition, I think we also need to find a player majoring in occultism to act with us. After all, players majoring in occultism are still very popular at Miskatonic University. Besides, we people are just occult enthusiasts who are not even half-minded at best.”

"Liu Xing, the two types of players you mentioned are not easy to find."

Zhang Wenbing shook his head and complained: "First of all, although there are many mage players, and I also know several players in Huaxia Daomen who meet your requirements Liu Xing, they have already formed a team with other players. The most important thing is Without exception, they are the core members of their respective teams, so it is not easy for us to let them abandon their teammates and join us, not to mention if there are really players who are willing to get a chance to be promoted to the Cthulhu area As for a teammate who abandons his own, I believe you will not let him join us, because we will all worry that this player will abandon us."

"Then there are players who specialize in occult science. As far as I know, although there are a lot of these players in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, the players who can survive to the Hounds of Tindalos area can be said to be very rare, because these players The difficulty of the module is always maxed out directly. They deal with various mythical creatures all year round. The messy magic books have long put their sanity value in a very dangerous state. Therefore, although most of these players are loners, we It's not troublesome to recruit them to join, but once these time bombs detonate, then we will usher in the end of the group destruction... You must know that the reason why players majoring in occult science are called group destruction engines is not just a group destruction engine. Two people picked it up.”

As soon as Zhang Wenbing finished speaking, Zhang Jingxu continued: "Yes, Liu Xing, you mentioned that these two types of players are difficult to find, and even if we can find them, we may not dare to ask for them, but I think the most important thing now is , we have to put this notebook away, because the Cthulhu Run game lobby does not have the concept of binding props; in addition, I have to ask you Liu Xing a question, that is, do you look down on me? Ah, I am also a certified magician after all!"

Looking at Zhang Jingxu who was pretending to be dissatisfied, Liu Xing said with a smile: "Zhang Jingxu, wake up, you don't know how deceptive the few spells you know now are. Those spells either choose the environment or the opponent." , so if we are lucky, these spells can still have some effect, but if we are unlucky, these spells will be useless."

Everyone smiled knowingly, including Zhang Jingxu.

After laughing, Zhang Jingxu said again: "Okay, I have to admit that the spells I learned before do have some flaws, but I have recently taken the time to learn a few new spells. These spells do not matter the environment or the environment. Pick your opponent; but having said that, I think our team still needs a professional doctor, because Liu Xing, you are just a newly graduated medical student."

As soon as Zhang Jingxu said this, Yin En and others started booing again.

However, Liu Xing was not annoyed. Instead, he nodded and said: "Zhang Jingxu, you are right. We do need a professional doctor, because my character card only knows first aid and psychoanalysis. If I face more... I can't help in professional scenarios, and you all know my current situation. If I can't restore my status as a player when I go through the upgrade module, then I will have to perform surgery on you myself. ...By the way, I have forgotten almost everything I learned in college."
