Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 469 Deadline

Hu Li nodded and said: "There is nothing to say about what happened in the tunnel. I basically followed the Corpse Food Cult onto the ship without any pressure. However, because the Corpse Food Cult's defense on the ship was very tight, and Tian Qing and the others These foreign tourists were all kept in relatively closed cabins, so I had no way to enter them to inquire about the situation, so I found a place to rest on the ship and planned to wait for the ship to dock before contacting you, but it turned out that the ship had just set off. Soon, I discovered that a group of deep divers had boarded the ship, and then this group of deep divers clashed with the followers of the Corpse Cult on the ship. The reason was naturally that the Corpse Cult did not help the deep divers capture Baruka as agreed. .”

"However, this conflict was loud and clear. After the person in charge of the Corpse Cult on the ship came forward and said that the Corpse Cult would continue to help the Deep Divers hunt down Baruka, the Deep Divers left with curses, and then the Corpse Cult on the ship The corpse ghost began to scold the deep divers for not working hard and complaining when they have nothing to do. This shows that the cooperative relationship between the zombie cult and the deep divers is very fragile, and there have been internal conflicts, so maybe we can Look for opportunities to use alienation tactics to deal with them."

"Then because the Corpse Cult was discovered by the English Coast Guard, the Corpse Cult decided to break up into pieces, abandon the big ship and split up their operations in several small boats, so I naturally chose to hide on the ship where Tian Qing and Li Mengyao were. , and then I found a strange big box. The big box was full of holes. There were followers of the Corpse Eater Cult around the clock to guard it, but I couldn't feel the breath of living things in the big box. There’s not even a smell at all.”

"So I was very curious and found an opportunity to enter the big box. I found that there was a wooden sculpture in the big box. It looked a bit like a totem pole in South America. There were many strange creatures carved on it. But At first, I didn’t think there was anything noteworthy about the wood carving except for its fine workmanship, but it didn’t take long before I heard two people standing in front of the big box.”

"Then the wood carving suddenly emitted black smoke, pouring out through the holes in the big box. Then I heard the sound of a person falling to the ground. Then the black smoke slowly turned into bright red, and then returned to the wood carving. Inside, the wood carving, which was originally a solid color, also turned a little bright red. I realized that something was wrong at that time, but when I wanted to find a chance to leave the big box, I found that a monster on the wood carving looked like It was watching me, and my instinct was telling me that if I moved randomly, I would definitely die in that big box."

"So I can only choose to give in and stay in that big box honestly. This is why I haven't contacted you. Then every hour or so, someone will be taken outside the big box. , became the food of this wooden sculpture, because I could feel that when the black smoke began to change color, the person's aura became weaker and weaker until it completely disappeared. However, the person did not seem to completely become a corpse, but became a walking zombie, because He can still move."

Hearing this, Alice couldn't help but interrupt: "Miss Hu Li, where is that wooden sculpture now?!"

Hu Li thought for a while, pointed in the direction of Eins Castle and said, "If the Corpse Eater Cult had not moved the wood carving, then the wood carving should still be in Eins Castle now."

Alice nodded and said helplessly: "It seems that the wood carving is the killer weapon used by the Corpse Cult to deal with us, so if I guessed correctly, the effect of the wood carving should be to transform living people into walking zombies. , and the Corpse Eater Cult should still be able to expand the range of effects of that wood carving, and then the whole of Manchester will be threatened by this wood carving."

Liu Xing and others nodded in agreement.

"That's right, after each time the wood sculpture finishes eating, its color will become brighter and brighter, and the black smoke will become more solid. Moreover, after arriving at Eins Castle, the Corpse Food Cult also That wood carving brought the dreamland, and it seems that it is intended to further strengthen the wood carving." Hu Li said seriously.

Liu Xing nodded and said curiously: "In that case, Miss Hu Li, how did you escape from the Eins Castle, and also rescued Miss Tian Qing and Miss Li Mengyao?"

Hu Li shrugged and said with a smile: "Maybe I'm lucky. In addition to the wood carving, there are a lot of sawdust and cotton as fillers in the big box for cushioning, so I don't dare to leave that box at will. It’s a big box, but I can still turn back into my true form and hide in the stuffing. And after arriving at Eins Castle, the White River City you mentioned brought a few believers and took away the wood carvings. Although the White River City looked at it I checked the situation in the box, but I was not found."

Hearing this, Liu Xing knew that Baihe City might have failed the judgment, so he didn't realize that Hu Li had gotten into it.

"After I waited for them from White River City to leave with the wooden sculptures, I found an opportunity to escape. Originally, I planned to run away directly at first, but when I just left Ains Castle, I discovered that Tian Qing and the others I was brought to the small town of Eins in batches, and there was only one corpse-eating cult believer responsible for guarding Tian Qing and Li Mengyao, so after I found a car that could be driven, I looked for an opportunity to rescue Tian Qing and the others, and then I drove straight back, and of course, I changed cars a few times on the way, so I can be sure that the people from the Corpse Food Cult did not follow me." Hu Li said with a smile.

At this time, Li Mengyao suddenly interjected: "By the way, the reason why the Corpse Food Cult brought us to that small town was to brainwash us separately. At that time, after Tian Qing and I were brought into the room by the Corpse Food Cult believers, He lit a candle and placed it in front of us, and then forced us to stare at the flame of the candle. After a while, I felt that I had entered a half-dream state and lost control of my body. , and I felt like someone was always saying something in my ear.”

Hu Li nodded and said seriously: "That candle also has a certain drug effect, which can put people's spirit in an extremely relaxed state, and when I found the car and came back to rescue Tian Qing and Li Mengyao , I saw that the believer of the Corpse Food Cult was reciting a spell, trying to hint to Tian Qing and Li Mengyao, so that they would believe that the Corpse Food Cult is the righteous party."

Liu Xing nodded, finally understanding why the four foreign tourists volunteered to become suicide bombers.

"It seems that we have to take action in advance. It is very likely that other foreign tourists have been brainwashed and become loyal fans of the Corpse Food Cult. This is equivalent to hundreds of more powerful chess pieces in the Corpse Food Cult. Because these foreign tourists are still victims on the surface, we have no way to completely restrict their movements, so they may cause us huge trouble." Zhang Jingxu said, rubbing his chin.

Liu Xing nodded, feeling that what Zhang Jingxu said was very right. After all, these foreign tourists are victims in the eyes of the public, and their families have been asking the British authorities to rescue them as soon as possible. When the completely brainwashed foreign tourists are released, even if the English officials know that they have become members of the Corpse Cult, there is no way to control them. At most, they can routinely take these foreign tourists to the police station for questioning for a period of time, and then These foreign tourists must be let go.

And when these brainwashed foreign tourists enter society, they can do a lot of things, such as controlling public opinion and publicizing how good the corpse-eating cult is to the people around them. The reason why they were kidnapped is just because of the corpse-eating cult. The church needs to attract the attention of society to resist official persecution in England and so on.

Although these remarks seem to be nonsense, a large number of people will believe these remarks and then put forward various conspiracy theories to support these remarks. By then, the Corpse Food Cult will be able to take the stage openly.

Of course, the Corpse Food Cult will definitely choose to change its name when the time comes. After all, the name Corpse Cult does not seem like a good thing. . .

At this moment, Alice's cell phone suddenly rang, and the caller was Chris.

"Miss Alice, have you watched the news now about the sudden appearance of thick fog on the coast of England?" Chris said anxiously.

Alice frowned and said, "Well, we just saw the news, and we are also sure that this thick fog is caused by the Corpse Cult. The most important thing is that this thick fog also has certain Lethality.”

Chris sighed and said helplessly: "I already know all this, because the Corpse Cult has contacted London, and they asked us to conduct a meeting with them at a farm outside London in three days. Negotiations, and they did not say the content of the negotiations, but according to the news from our undercover in the Corpse Cult, the Corpse Cult most likely wants us to recognize it as a legal sect, and also wants us to give Their right to preach freely!”

Sure enough, the Corpse Food Cult was preparing to go to the front desk first.

"Then what did you answer?" Alice asked.

Chris said: "The situation is stronger than people now. We have no way to lift the thick fog. And Miss Alice, you also know that as an island country, England is a terrible thing if sea and air transportation are blocked. Now the economy According to the department's visual inspection, in just these three days, the economic losses we have suffered due to this dense fog have been astronomical, so we have to hold talks with the Corpse Cult, and may choose to make concessions to a certain extent. . . ”

Hearing Chris say this, Liu Xing had an ominous premonition.

Because if the English official chooses to give in to the Corpse Cult, it means that his group is likely to lose the help of the English official, and then the balance of the module's victory will directly tip to the side of White River City.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing couldn't help but said: "Alice, can you let me have a chat with Mr. Chris?"

Alice nodded and handed the phone to Liu Xing.

Taking the phone, Liu Xing said: "Mr. Chris, I am Meteor. I want to ask you now, if London chooses to compromise with the Corpse Cult in the negotiations in three days, can you continue What about delaying for a while to fulfill your promise?”

At this time, Wesker's voice sounded on the other end of the phone, "Give me your phone."

"Mr. Meteor, I understand what you mean, but I also hope you can understand us, because the current economic situation in England is not good, and there is no way to continue to fight against the Corpse Cult for such a long time, so if within three days We have not found a way to dispel the dense fog, so we will definitely choose to give in to the Corpse Cult. But Mr. Meteor, you can rest assured that even if we choose to give in to the Corpse Cult, we will still support you in dealing with the Corpse Cult. , because we all know the wolfish ambitions of the Corpse Eater Cult."

Although Wesker's words were awe-inspiring, Liu Xing knew that politicians should not believe everything they said, otherwise you would have to help others count their money after being sold.

Liu Xing can be sure that if the Corpse Food Cult requires the English officials to reveal the whereabouts of his group, or directly deport his group, or even arrest him and hand them over to them, the English officials will definitely choose to do so without hesitation. Do.

After all, a dead Taoist friend will never die a poor Taoist.

Liu Xing thought for a while and decided to ask Wesker the last question, "So Mr. Wesker, if you make concessions to the Corpse Cult, how long can you delay before actually starting to take action?"

As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, kp Li Shunchan said: "Now please select a representative of the players to throw a 1d10+3 dice. The result of the throw will determine how long you can stay in this module. Of course, if you fail to complete the third phase of the mission during this period, then you will all fall off directly."

Sure enough.

Liu Xing sighed secretly in his heart and said, "Then let me throw. I think my luck recently should be pretty good."

Ishikawa Ling and others nodded slightly, agreeing that Liu Xing would throw this crucial dice.

Liu Xing, 1d10+3=6+3=9

Nine days.

Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief. In three days, he should officially enter the third stage. As long as the tasks in the third stage are not too deceiving, six days should be relatively sufficient.

"OK, then this module will end directly after nine days. I hope all players can continue to work hard and seize the last nine days to complete the mission. By the way, this mission is not a group of you players fighting." kp Li Shunchan said with a smile.
