Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2616: Nothing found

Under normal circumstances, many people will carry with them what they consider to be the most precious things. For example, in the real-world Cthulhu Run game, when players fill in their character cards, there is a special column for you to write this What is the most cherished thing in the character card? It can be expensive gold and silver jewelry, a family photo or a love letter from your first love.

In many cases, this is just a small note to enrich the character's background, but in some modules, these items that are cherished by the character card will be used, or to give players a motivation to go somewhere.

But I don’t know why, after arriving at the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, there is no such so-called "treasured object". At least Liu Xing has not discovered that "Liu Xing" values ​​something so much that he is willing to Take some risk to get this thing back.

Of course, in addition to this "treasured object", some of the content that players need to fill in on the character card in the real world has also disappeared in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, but Liu Xing and other players can also understand Why is this? Because the content that players need to fill in is to enrich the image of this character card. Let KP arrange some special plots for these character cards based on these contents, so that it can give players a stronger sense of substitution. .

This is like "Liu Xing rushed into the castle without hesitation" and "Liu Xing remembered that Baihe City had risked his life to help him find the ring given by his first love before, but now he would abandon him and run away. He was so inhuman, so after struggling for a moment, Liu Xing rushed into the castle again." These two sentences came out of kp's mouth, and they gave players a completely different feeling.

After all, the Cthulhu running game in the real world is ultimately an art of language. A qualified KP can make up a picture in your mind through a few words, making the originally seemingly boring board game more interesting. It has become more colorful, but such a KP is rare but cannot be sought, because it has extremely high requirements on the KP's literature and speech level.

But after arriving at the Cthulhu Run game lobby, players no longer need to make up any pictures, because the pictures are already pasted on your face, and the background stories of the character cards are also prepared for you, and the initial The background story of the character card is similar to your own past in the real world.

Players can even think that this initial character card is another self in the parallel world, but this self's life trajectory is quite stable, with almost no changes. This may be the purpose of the Cthulhu Run Game Hall to give players a There is no need to worry about the initial character card, and there is no need to bear all kinds of burdens just after entering the Cthulhu Run game lobby.

Of course, if it is not the initial character card, some relatively low-priced character cards will have some unbearable past events. For example, the "Tom" character card that Liu Xing bought just to kill time, his past is a bit unbearable to look back on. , so Liu Xing estimated that if he continued to use this character card, he might have to face his fear instead of "Tom".

You must know that in the real world, when players fill out the character card, in addition to writing "valued things" and simple "interpersonal relationships", sometimes they also have to write whether you have any phobias, such as the most classic PTSD , you can add it to your character card at any time if necessary.

Therefore, the character card like "Tom" most likely has a hidden attribute - some kind of phobia, and the Cthulhu Run Game Hall also believes in one sentence - the best way to eliminate fear is to face fear!

Of course, it is not ruled out that the Cthulhu Run game lobby is very nasty. Modules are specially designed to target the players' weaknesses. For example, if your character card is afraid of the dark, then it will arrange a game where it will be in the dark throughout the entire process. For a module in the dark, the only light source may be a candle or your phone, but such a light source will always go out at some point.

Therefore, many players have complained about this, thinking that the Cthulhu Run game lobby no longer treats players as human beings, but does not treat players as human beings, because even if players do not have corresponding phobias in the real world, they will still be affected by characters. Various corresponding symptoms appear due to the influence of the card, which is quite uncomfortable.

Liu Xing has always thought that he should have claustrophobia or cave phobia, because when he was a child, Liu Xing and his friends were playing marbles under a certain building, and suddenly discovered that this building was not deliberately designed. Or something, there is a hole that can be accessed under the wall on the side of the mountain. There is a large space inside, and there is always ventilation here, but as soon as Liu Xing entered, he felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, and he was a little breathless.

However, Liu Xing was very face-conscious when he was a child, so the friends around him didn't say anything. Liu Xing could only stay inside, but he couldn't say a word clearly.

This may be the most primitive fear, because if humans in ancient times appeared in a closed cave, they would most likely be captured by some beasts and taken back to their lairs, which would be equivalent to waiting. dead.

Liu Xing was thinking as he came to the NPC in that place.

At this time, these NPCs seemed to Liu Xing to be asleep. They could already see their chests rising and falling, and they were very regular. However, it was still very difficult for Liu Xing to find the Update Emperor, because The costumes of these NPCs don't look like anything special.

All in all, Liu Xing had no way of telling the seniority of these NPCs from their clothing. What also surprised Liu Xing was that not many of these NPCs were wearing serious armor, and there were no weapons or anything like that. There are very distinctive weapons like Qinglong Yanyue Sword and Fangtian Painted Halberd, so Liu Xing couldn't find an NPC worthy of him for a while.

That's right, Liu Xing is ready to turn on automatic pickup at this time to see if there is anything on these NPCs that can be exchanged for Little Star's gold and silver. If he can collect a bunch of such things, then it is really possible for him to exchange them. Get enough little stars or flowers in exchange for some useful props.

Since he couldn't tell which NPC might "ship", Liu Xing's idea changed from focusing on taking care of him to casting a wide net.

As long as you search for more points, the probability of shipment will be higher.

Just when Liu Xing was about to take action, he saw several players who seemed to have the same idea as him, and they seemed a little embarrassed when they saw Liu Xing. After all, it may not be an appropriate analogy. At this time The relationship between Liu Xing and other players is a bit similar to that between a teacher and a student. Although the relationship between the two parties is not a superior-subordinate relationship, the students will feel a little scared even when they see the teacher outside the school.

Therefore, even if these players suspect that Liu Xing wants to do what they want to do, it is difficult to say it directly at this time. After all, they also know some ways of the world.

Liu Xing had already thought of a countermeasure when encountering this kind of thing before he came, so he said without changing his expression and his heart not beating: "Ahem, now that you're here, don't leave. Come and take a look at these with me." Are there any useful things on the NPC? If so, we will keep half of them ourselves and give the remaining half to someone to exchange for small stars and flowers in exchange for some high-value props.”

These players immediately understood Liu Xing's thoughts, so they quickly began to work hard and began to harvest the leeks that would not move.

It didn't take long for Liu Xing to realize that something was wrong, because there was really nothing on these NPCs, not to mention valuable gold and silver, not even a copper plate.

Are all the NPCs in this event bartering?

That's somewhat abstract. After all, with so many NPCs gathered together, how can they barter?

Uh, seems that makes sense?

After all, these NPCs have no channels for trade, and they can only produce so many things. The most important thing is that these produced things are digested in their respective cities, so the lack of currency does not seem to have any impact. Bartering is enough.

Moreover, these NPCs have been here for decades, so most of the gold and silver they brought from the martial arts module may have been lost due to various reasons. After all, in addition to real gold and silver, ordinary Lingluo Silks and various precious porcelains are easily taken away by the ruthless years. "Alliance leader, we haven't found anything here, so these weapons can still be used."

A player came over and said, "So should we find someone to come over and collect these weapons, so that these NPCs will not come to us with these weapons to cause trouble after they wake up?"

This is true.

In Liu Xing's view, these NPCs will wake up sooner or later, so it is not a good idea to leave weapons and equipment with them.

Ever since, Liu Xing found a group of players who had not participated in the Pac-Man activities and asked them to collect all the weapons and equipment scattered on the ground. To be precise, they threw them directly inside the city wall for safety reasons. In addition, lest these NPCs wake up and find that their weapons are piled aside, they will find a way to get their weapons back!

But now that these weapons have been thrown out of their sight, these NPCs will not have so many bad intentions after waking up.

At this time, Liu Xing suddenly remembered a sentence, that is, when people are full, they will have a lot of troubles, but when people are not full, there is only one trouble left.

You think so, friends who don’t have big cake to eat?

So if these NPCs see their weapons, then they may only have one idea left in their minds, which is to find a way to get their weapons back!

And when they can't see their weapons after waking up, they have more ideas, and they won't have the time to think about how to get their weapons back.

As for whether to take advantage of people's danger and wipe the necks of these NPCs, that is indeed a question.

Although doing this can once and for all solve the possibility that these NPCs may be detrimental to his and his group, Liu Xing is worried that his actions against these NPCs will speed up the progress of the Star of Destruction's eyes, because the system prompt does not clearly say that the Star of Destruction is Is the progress only related to the number of players, or does it also need to include NPCs?

Now that we have reached this point, we still have to be careful, lest Ao Guanhai and others use the Star of Destruction to overturn the table.

If the table is turned over, no one will be able to eat.

Therefore, Liu Xing's attitude towards these NPCs is also very simple, that is, leave them here to fend for themselves. As long as they do not affect his group, it will be fine. Of course, it is best for them to continue fighting after they wake up. It is best to lose both sides if they are badly beaten.

If there weren't too many people lying here, Liu Xing would have wanted to find someone to throw them out of the palace.

"Liu Xing."

Just when Liu Xing was considering whether to do something more, he suddenly heard someone calling his name from behind, and this person's voice seemed quite familiar. . . But this sounds familiar. The problem is that Liu Xing can't tell whether this person is a man or a woman.

Something is wrong.

After all, this voice sounded so familiar to Liu Xing, but he couldn't tell whether he or she was a boy or girl, so he might have met some strange old acquaintance.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing subconsciously wanted to turn his head to see who it was, but found that his neck seemed to be welded to death and could not be twisted at all.

And at this time, Liu Xing felt that the sounds around him were becoming more and more blurred, and everything in front of him became transparent. This made Liu Xing suddenly think of four words - soul out of body.

So is he being summoned as a soul?

I didn't respond to that voice either.

For a moment, Liu Xing was a little flustered, because the current situation seemed a bit wrong no matter how he thought about it, so was this someone who came with bad intentions?

Could it be that I had enemies in the Cthulhu Running Group game hall back then?

That's not the case, isn't it? The Cthulhu Running Game Hall back then was quite fun. Although there might be some minor conflicts between players, they wouldn't really lead to enmity, right?

At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly stumbled and fell directly to the ground.

Liu Xing suddenly fell down on the spot, but the surrounding players were shocked. They quickly ran over to help Liu Xing, who was still a little confused.

"What's wrong with me?"

As soon as Liu Xing said this, a player directly replied: "Leader, you were standing here fine, but suddenly you fell to the ground. We thought you fainted suddenly, and we were still thinking that you were It’s not like I’m starving because I haven’t eaten for a while, or I have low blood sugar or anything.”

What is going on?

Liu Xing didn't expect that the voice came and went even faster. He just said hello to himself and ran away?
