Real Cthulhu Running Game

A talking monster?

Liu Xing looked at Baihe City in disbelief. He didn't expect him to say such nonsense, because Liu Xing also knew that Mr. Bai in front of him had always lived in Heshan County, and only occasionally went to visit relatives in other places, so Liu Xing didn't think that Mr. Bai had seen some magical beast that he didn't even know about. After all, everyone lived in the same place. If any magical beast really appeared, the news would spread throughout the city in less than half a day.

What's more, Liu Xing also knows that Mr. Bai, as the most favored child of the Bai family, usually has several followers around him, and if he wants to go out, he will send a few more guards, so if he has seen any monsters, he will definitely come back. There were other witnesses.

But the most important thing is that this monster can actually talk!

"As far as I know, there is no talking monster yet. The only animals that can talk are parrots and mynas, and these two birds can only learn to speak, that is, they will say what you say. In short, this In my opinion, it doesn't count as being able to speak, it can only be said that it can repeat what you said." Yueshen shook his head and said.

"That's right, parrots who imitate words cannot be regarded as being able to speak. After all, neither parrots nor mynas can organize their own language to express themselves. However, the monster I saw can speak seriously, or have a conversation with me. Normal communication.”

Baihecheng said confidently: "This monster is about the same height as I was back then, and a bit bigger than us now, so it looks a bit like a standing pig, but it is much more handsome than a pig. , because it has tiger-like striped fur and a horse head with sharp teeth, but this horse head is more rounded and looks much better; and this monster also has four limbs, but it The two hands look a bit short, but the nails of this monster are very long, so its hands look no different from ordinary people."

Um? Why does this description of Baihe City look familiar?

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, and suddenly thought of his favorite anime in childhood - "Digimon", because the monster in Shirakawa City's mouth seemed to be the partner of the first protagonist.

That's right, it's Agumon!

Just because there is no concept of dinosaurs in this martial arts module, Shirakawa City will describe Agumon as a suture monster. If Liu Xing hadn't just watched the latest work of "Digimon" some time ago, he might not have You must be able to realize what Baihe City is talking about at the first time.

But then again, this new "Digimon" game is really average in terms of quality, and this is when Liu Xing has a childhood filter.

Of course, in Liu Xing's opinion, this is still better than the "Pokémon" next door, because the sudden change in the protagonist's painting style is really difficult for Liu Xing to accept, and the new Pokémon also look quite abstract, not unlike The early ones were so natural.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing touched his chin and realized that Baihe City was really going to start telling a story, but his story was directly based on real childhood memories.

If nothing unexpected happens, Liu Xing feels that the next story Baihecheng will tell is that he and Agumon became friends, and then together they dealt with the sudden appearance of Parrotmon!

That's right, isn't this the plot when the protagonist and Agumon meet for the first time?

And how should I put it, the first part of "Digimon" is obviously a children's animation, so the plot is quite simple. It is nothing more than the protagonists and their Digimon partners working together to defeat enemies one after another. There may be some conflicts, but everyone will make peace in the end.

Therefore, there is definitely nothing wrong with this anime for children to watch, but it is a bit childish to show it to adults. Therefore, when Baihe City suddenly told this story, it either gave up the mission reward, or wanted to pass the setting to win.

It's like many film and television works nowadays are mediocre in plot and other aspects, but a certain character can become popular because of his special personality, so

The "talking monster" that Baihecheng said was a head start and aroused the interest of everyone present, so as long as he tells a logical story later, he should be able to win the mission reward, unless the remaining two One could tell a more interesting story.

For example, Liu Xing prepared real-life stories, and they were fresh.

That's right, the story prepared by Liu Xing is how Han Yu conquered the Han Yu Crocodile!

The main reason why Liu Xing chose this story is that it is enough of a head start, because no matter who tells you that an ordinary weak scholar can actually persuade a terrifying giant crocodile that is as big as a tank through words, then you are sure I would be interested, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many real shark sculpture movies like “The Deadly X-Headed Shark” in the real world.

Are you saying that sharks and crocodiles are not the same species? Then you just don’t know that these two animals belong to the same category in the field of movies. After all, the main reason why they can be in movies is that these two monsters scare people with their size and mouth full of fangs, and they They can grow multiple heads under various effects, and each new head is equivalent to a new movie.

Just as Liu Xing thought, Baihe City tells a story that is familiar to almost all "children" born in the 1990s in the real world. Of course, Baihe City has also changed this to highlight how powerful that monster is. He is wise and willing to be friends with himself.

So this is ah!

Liu Xing finally understood Baihe City's idea, which was to use a huge gimmick to win this mission, that is, a World of Warcraft that was "willing to communicate with humans and be friends with humans", so Liu Xing felt that if he If the guess is correct, Baihe City will definitely let this Agumon die for itself!

If you want your work to have a powerful ending, make it tragic.

Of course, a tragic ending can also bring the story to an end. In this case, there will be no proof, and even if the people listening to the story want to pursue the case, they will be unable to recover.

What a calculation.

Liu Xing just looked at Baihe City, smiling and saying nothing.

At this time, Baihecheng was still a little frightened when he saw Liu Xing's expression, because this stranger was looking at him, but he still had a smiling expression of "I knew it". This made Baihecheng He knew that the person in front of him should also be a player, and he had already heard the origin of his story.

Although Baihe City feels that he is very thick-skinned, it is not a big deal if he is caught as a copycat. Anyway, he has already thought of an ending where he will die without proof, so even if this player wants to fall out with him in order to complete the task, he will not Being able to deal with it easily, after all, this player can't just say that he is from a different world, right?

So why does this guy's confused expression make me so flustered? Could it be that he knows where he is?

It's possible!

Baihe City knows that the Alliance has reached out to Feihu City, so it is normal for players from the Alliance to appear in Yueshan City now. After all, the Moon Night Celebration is very attractive to players, because as long as it is a Cthulhu group game Senior players in the lobby can all guess that their chances of receiving the blessing of the Moon God are definitely higher than that of NPCs, so players who have time will come to join in the fun.

If Baihe City hadn't known that he would definitely get the blessing of the Moon God in Yueshan City, otherwise he wouldn't have found a reason to come to Yueshan City from Far West City.

But, the players around here probably don’t know me, because apart from activities in Boyang City and Tianshui Town, I spend more time in Far West City, and in this city where transportation basically relies on legs In the martial arts module, few players would travel across cities, not to mention that the distance between Far West City and Yueshan City could be described as thousands of miles away.

So it’s unlikely that the player in front of me would recognize him, right? After all, whether he is in Sweetwater Town or Far West City, he keeps a low profile, so he shouldn't attract too many players' attention, right?

Could it be that this person is not a player, but an NPC who knows himself?

That's unlikely. After all, I have already checked the memory of the character card and confirmed that I don't know this person. If I had known that my character card was considered a homebody, or I knew that I could only live in the one-third of an acre of my house. The land has some status, so your character card doesn't like to leave the comfort zone and run to other places.

If possible, I don't want to run around.

Baihecheng sighed silently in his heart, and then told the ending that he had prepared for a long time, "When that monster that looked like a parrot wanted to grab me up to the sky with its claws, that monster The monster ran up to protect me, and then I saw it and the parrot monster turn into a fireball!"

This time, Baihe City sighed heavily and looked disappointed.

Wonderful!

I have to say that Liu Xing feels that Baihe City's performance is quite good. If he was also an NPC, he might be able to get him into the rhythm.

Just as Liu Xing thought, Baihecheng's performance won the applause of other NPCs present, while Liu Xing clapped his hands gently, and then continued to look at Baihecheng with a smile.

That's right, at this time, Liu Xing had already begun to play pranks, and was ready to put some pressure on Baihe City, letting him know what it means to keep others from knowing, unless you do nothing yourself.

For Baihe City, Liu Xing's plan must have been successful, because he was numb now. After all, someone was smiling at him here without saying a word, and he didn't know this person.

So at this time, Baihe City thought of an urban legend in the real world, that is, a certain smiling man will always keep a mysterious smile near you.

This is a typical example of little harm, but extremely insulting.

Because Zhuyu was in front, the penultimate NPC who told the story spoke in an ordinary way, which put no pressure on Baihe City at all, so everyone present focused on the last Liu Xing.

Except for Yueshen, everyone present was full of curiosity about Liu Xing, because Liu Xing had not spoken since they arrived here, just sitting there laughing and saying nothing, so much so that one NPC thought that Liu Xing Star is mute.

"Ahem, the story I'm going to tell you next is a strange thing that I encountered just two days ago. In short, a scholar friend of mine conquered an eight-carriage sedan with a poem. Big crocodile! This is a true story, because my friend is going to Liangcheng to serve as an official, so it won’t be long before you can hear about his anecdotes. "

As soon as Liu Xing said this, everyone present was shocked, because Liu Xing emphasized that this is a true story, and this matter will be widely publicized soon, so if the story of Baihe City is... A four-A that is not known to be true or false, then what Liu Xing comes up with now is a king bomb!

However, Liu Xing noticed that while Baihecheng was shocked, his face also showed some thoughts. He seemed to have thought of something.

Ever since, Liu Xing directly showed off his cards.

"Actually, my identity is the captain appointed by His Highness the Third Prince. Because I had something to do, I went to the nearby Fei City. In the city, I met Han Yu, the son of the prefect..."

At this point, Baihecheng, who had come to his senses, pointed at Liu Xing in even more shock, because he already knew that the handsome guy in front of him was his immediate boss!

So the question is, if you go to a carnival out of town without telling other people in the company, and end up meeting your boss who is on a business trip here, what should you say and do now?

Of course, that’s just giving up!

Baihecheng, who knew he was in the wrong, immediately lowered his head and said in a flattering tone: "Liu Lieutenant, why are you in Yueshan City? And why are the pockmarks on your face gone, so that I can't even recognize you?"

Liu Xing laughed, shook his head and said: "You, Laobai, can be in Yueshan City, so why can't I be in Yueshan City? And I happened to be returning from Fei City, so I happened to meet the Moon Night Festival, so why didn't I participate? As for me The pockmarks on my face are all thanks to the moon god, which not only restored my original appearance, but also made me even more handsome."

"That's right, Lieutenant Liu, you are so handsome!"

Bai Hecheng smiled and sat next to Liu Xing, as if he was following Liu Xing's lead.

Liu Xing didn't say much, so he told the story of Han Yu conquering Han Yu Crocodile. Of course, Liu Xing also ignored some details, such as the fact that he accidentally broke his leg.

Although the story of Baihe City is still competitive to a certain extent, Baihe City has turned into Liu Xing's lackey at this time, so Yueshen also smiled and handed a small gift he prepared to Liu Xing.

An exquisite hand crossbow.

"This hand crossbow was given to me by my father for self-defense, but as my own strength improved, this hand crossbow was no longer available."
