Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2580 Rock Paper Scissors

Ten minutes later, the situation in the siege grid was considered settled!

At this time, the siege grid is roughly divided into three camps. Two of the camps are naturally divided according to whether they support the Renewal Emperor. There must be about 20,000 to 30,000 people on both sides. Naturally, they are mainly NPCs, with only miscellaneous ones. A small number of players.

As for the third-party camp, it is naturally the players dominated by Liu Xing. There are only less than 3,000 people, including NPCs like Crocodile.

Logically speaking, Crocodile should have returned to Crocodile City's team, but the problem is that Crocodile looked around and found no trace of the Crocodile City prefect. At the same time, he also saw a few familiar figures scattered here and there, so Crocodile knew that from Crocodile City Most of the people who entered the grid formation in the city were gone. Just like after he met Liu Xing and others, only a fraction of his more than 500 people were left.

As for whether to join the camp against the New Emperor, Crocodile decided to side with Liu Xing and others after struggling for a moment. Firstly, he already had the idea to go outside and take a look after all the dust settled. Secondly, As a defeated general, he had no face to see Jiangdong's elders again.

Of course, more importantly, the crocodile used to be so proud of his talent that he looked down on this and nowhere, so he offended a lot of people. However, these people before did not dare to provoke him because he was really capable of getting close to him. , therefore this also made the crocodile become more confident, and it was not until today that he encountered the Waterloo of his life.

Therefore, the crocodile knows very well that if he goes to the camp against the New Emperor at this time, I am afraid that many people will stand up and accuse him, or even find a way to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. Of course, the crocodile is this chicken.

Therefore, after some thinking, Crocodile decided to stay with Liu Xing as a bodyguard, specifically responsible for Liu Xing's safety.

One thing is that Liu Xing felt that if the bodyguard Crocodile hadn't had some "misunderstandings" with him before, then he would really feel that he was a bodyguard who could bring him a sense of security.

Therefore, Liu Xing is still looking forward to what Crocodile will look like when he comes to Tianshui Town to work for him. If nothing happens, he will become his number one general.

Or give him the Wounding Dragon Spear?

Liu Xing took a look at the crocodile's physique and felt that this person should be able to play the Dragon-Severing Gun, but he didn't know what his mental strength was and whether he could withstand the mental pressure brought by the Dragon-Slaying Gun.

As for why Liu Xing and others did not join a certain camp, but simply stood in the middle and acted as fence-sitters, that can only be said to be a last resort.

Liu Xing originally wanted to join Yun Qi and others when he saw them. After all, he entered the grid with them at the beginning, and got some help from them, such as the equipment on his body. It has obvious characteristics of Yuncheng. Liu Xing estimates that some NPCs who are familiar with Yuncheng will know the background of his group by looking at the equipment on them.

However, more and more players are joining Liu Xing's team at this time. The miscellaneous equipment on their bodies also allows Liu Xing to see that these people have also received help from a certain city, so Liu Xing and others at this time look like Like a group of defeated soldiers gathered together.

Combined with the fact that few people in Crocodile City have entered the grid at this time, everyone knows that some people either have not entered the siege grid yet, or have fallen into a certain grid.

Therefore, in the eyes of the NPCs from the other two camps, the defeated generals and stragglers like Liu Xing might be their own, so they allowed Liu Xing and others to stay aside and watch the fun, instead of taking direct action to clear out these potential threats like Liu Xing.

That's right, Liu Xing and others at this time are like Schrödinger's cat in the eyes of those NPCs. Before opening the box, they are in the superposition state of friendly forces and enemies, so it is better not to take action casually at this time.

But more importantly, the number of NPCs in the two camps is almost the same now, so their evenly matched opponents dare not take action against third-party forces at will, because it is very likely that the enemy will take the opportunity to attack!

So Liu Xing and others are like the kind of young people sandwiched between two boxers, acting as a buffer zone. . . Of course, although this young man is a little weaker, he is not someone who can be manipulated at will.

Therefore, after Liu Xing thought for a while, he took everyone back a few steps and kept a distance from the tens of thousands of NPCs.

After all, there is still another problem: Liu Xing and others have accepted Mr. Luo's mission invitation, and Mr. Luo only gave a one-sentence reply at this time - wait for good news.

Therefore, Liu Xing and others did not dare to make any big moves at this time, lest something suddenly happen to them due to Master Luo's mission, such as fainting or something, so they could only wait and see what happens.

During this process, many people still entered the siege grid one after another, but almost all of them were "absorbed" by those two camps. As for the way of absorption, it is hard to say.

Of course, occasionally a few players would join Liu Xing's team, and Zhang Jingxu and others would go there as soon as possible to make contact, and several undercover agents were actually developed.

However, for Liu Xing and others, these undercover agents were just playing a casual game, so they did not have too many requirements for these undercover agents. They just continued to play how they wanted to play, and then showed their own skills when necessary later. true identity.

Of course, you still have to pay attention to some important information.

"Ahem, since the number of people now is enough, let's start this mission."

At this moment, Master Luo's voice appeared in Liu Xing's mind, "The task I want to give you is also very simple. That is to find other people who have accepted this task in the siege grid, and through the process you all agree The winner will advance and wait for the start of the next round, while the loser will be eliminated and leave the grid.”

Um?

That's it?

Liu Xing really never thought that Luo Ye's task would be so simple and unpretentious. It was just a standard knockout process. However, the items in this knockout round were left to the players of both sides to choose by themselves, so Liu Xing only thought of two at this time. Word - guessing game.

Under the current circumstances, guessing is the most suitable competition event, because guessing has no requirements on the venue. Even winning two out of three games only takes a few seconds. Of course, if you add in the thinking time, it will only take a few seconds. About minutes, and most of the time this guessing game is about luck, and occasionally some psychological games are added.

Liu Xing sighed when he thought of this and looked at Zhang Jingxu, "Old Zhang, rock, paper, scissors, can the outcome be determined by one hand?"

"No problem." Zhang Jingxu smiled and said, "Come on, if we decide the outcome, Lao Liu, don't be too clever. Let's just solve the problem in one second."

They are all old friends, and Liu Xing and Zhang Jingxu still have a good understanding of each other, so after looking at each other and smiling, they started playing guessing games.

"Rock, paper, scissors!"

Liu Xing, stone.

Zhang Jingxu, scissors.

"Congratulations on advancing to the next round. Please rest for a while until the next round starts."

As soon as Mr. Luo finished speaking, Zhang Jingxu suddenly disappeared in front of Liu Xing.

At this time, Liu Xingcai belatedly realized that the eliminated players would leave the grid early, so he was sending Zhang Jingxu away personally?

There is another question, that is, where will players who leave the grid early be sent?

If he didn't return the same way, he would have to be sent to the palace of Emperor Xinxin.

etc.

At this time, Liu Xing realized something belatedly, that is, the players participating in this mission were all his right-hand men, so after the mission was over, he would have no one left to use!

He may even be kicked out of the grid in advance, and then the thousands of players who finally got together will be leaderless.

It seems that he must determine the successor in advance.

As a lover of historical novels, Liu Xing is also very aware that if emperors in history did not determine the prince in advance like the new Dragon Emperor, various problems would arise, especially when the emperor died due to various reasons. If he died early, the problem would be even greater.

So Liu Xing, who had learned from the past, decisively chose to call Long San and Li Mengyao over first.

That's right, at this time Liu Xing only thought of two more suitable candidates - Long San and Yang De. The reason why he called Long San and Li Mengyao first instead of bringing Yang De was because Liu Xing had different instructions for them.

This is like the one-click configuration of talents in some games. Long San and Yang De represent two completely different styles of play. Among them, Long San definitely represents the word "stable", while Yang De represents One word - hit!

Yang De has already demonstrated his abilities at this time and has been recognized by most players. After all, his one-on-one duel with Crocodile amazed the surrounding players and thought it was in line with their idea of ​​a one-on-one duel between generals. , plus Yang De has a pretty good personality, so I also met a lot of new friends in this event.

Not to mention that Yang De had already become Liu Xing's right-hand man before the event started, and he could be regarded as having the ability to follow the dragon, so this allowed most players to accept him as Liu Xing's temporary commander. . . Although Yang De is not a reckless man, as a sharp knife who must be at the forefront, he must also have a deputy to assist him.

So who is this deputy?

It has to be Li Mengyao.

That's right, no matter whether Long San or Yang De takes over his position temporarily, Liu Xing feels that their deputy must be Li Mengyao. This is not only because Li Mengyao has a close relationship with him, but also because Li Mengyao can play a critical role no matter what. Always display a badge exclusive to the Cthulhu area!

You must know that this badge is very valuable, because in the previous regional promotion modules, as long as you are lucky enough and have a few reliable teammates around you to help you, then you just need not to be completely reckless or have extremely bad luck. You can pass the promotion module, but in the Cthulhu area, you must show excellent performance to prove yourself, and only then can you have a chance to become the leader in the Cthulhu team game hall.

It's like mathematics, if you can, you can, if you can't, you can't, there isn't much in between.

So isn't there a good joke recently? There may be buried new Ronaldos and Jordans in this school, as well as Beethoven and Leonardo da Vinci, but there will never be a buried Gauss.

Just look at many of today's mathematical geniuses. Basically, they have shown their talent since they were a few years old, and they have steadily taken one step at a time. They are in the ivory tower of university when their peers have just entered middle school. So when a person who had always received a normal education suddenly showed his amazing mathematical talent in his teens, Liu Xing could only think of two words - system.

The Cthulhu area in the Cthulhu Running Group game hall is equivalent to mathematics. It is difficult for you to become a member of the Cthulhu area through opportunistic means. . . Of course, if Liu Xing had not been assisted by Ao Guanhai, it would not have been possible for Tian Qing and Li Mengyao to enter the Cthulhu area.

However, Liu Xing also knew that Ao Guanhai was not sincerely helping him, but wanted to use Tian Qing and others to restrict him. This could be regarded as a subtle threat. After all, Tian Qing and Tian Qing were running as Cthulhu. The new players in the group game lobby will not be able to gain a foothold in the Cthulhu area without the help of their own group.

But, others don’t know how Li Mengyao obtained the badge of the Cthulhu region, so there is no problem in using it to scare those with ulterior motives.

Therefore, Liu Xing's positioning for Li Mengyao is two words - blank bullets. Although there is no way to really cause any damage, before it is fired, its deterrence to the surroundings is no different from real bullets.

As for why Liu Xing chose Long San to take over his position besides Yang De, the main reason is to choose the taller one among the short ones, because people more suitable than him have already accepted Luo Ye's task, and this task is estimated to be There will only be the last person left in the grid, so now we can only let Long San come on.

Firstly, it was because Long San was among the first batch of players to join his team after the event started, and he also performed well.

Secondly, it is because Long San can also be regarded as Yang De's control group. After all, they became Liu Xing's right-hand men one after another, so Liu Xing cannot favor one over the other, making subsequent players feel that he does not take care of newcomers like them.

At this time, Liu Xing felt more and more like an emperor, because he had to learn how to balance the interests of his subordinates so that they would not cause conflicts and infighting.
