Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2379: Warcraft is a synthetic beast?

“Jekyll Island? Is it the island we visited before in a certain module?”

Yin En was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Wait, if I remember correctly, isn't there a facility left by a mythical creature on Jekyll Island? And this facility is used to create synthetic beasts. , that is, merging two or even multiple different creatures together and making them huge, at least about the same size as a cow, right? Anyway, we saw the kind of synthesis that was taller than a three-story building at that time, right? There are also flying synthetic beasts, but they are similar to those we have seen. "

"Yeah, that's why I'm sure that the patterns on these three iron pieces together are alluding to Jekyll Island! And doesn't that unknown person know how to rub ore radios? I haven't seen it in this martial arts module. I've been to that NPC that can make ore radios, but I haven't even heard of the related legends. More importantly, I encountered several plots on the way back to Sweetwater Town, all of which hinted that there might be something in this martial arts module. The time traveler!”

Liu Xing said seriously: "And if I remember correctly, the synthetic beast manufacturing base on Jekyll Island should be the property of the Yis people, because we found some weapons left by the Yis people in that base, not to mention our So I went to Jekyll Island to find the missing ancient man and several other members of the expedition team. As a result, I found the ancient man, and it seemed that some of the remaining members of the expedition team were missing. But at that time, we assumed that these missing people had been eaten by the synthetic beasts. "

"As for the Yi people, it is indeed possible that there is some kind of transmission device in the secret base. Although we entered the secret base at that time, we only passed through a few relatively safe areas. After all, at that time We were still a little too weak, and the pressure from those synthetic beasts was too strong, so what we wanted at the time was to complete the mission as soon as possible and then leave the hellish place called Jekyll Island, so our route out of the secret base was to highlight A safe and quick one, so although there was no danger along the way, we didn’t get any useful props.”

Yin En rarely said seriously at this time: "If we review this module now, we will find that this module is a typical short, flat and fast module, because we started the module from the time we went to the island to our It took more than a day to leave Jekyll Island, and the main process was to wander around the secret base of the Yithians! Although the secret base has stopped operating, the things inside are still relatively well preserved! , even if some areas are closed on the surface, if we are willing to look for it, we should be able to find a way to enter these areas, such as a key or access card, or enter through some special channels. It’s like crawling through the air ducts in movies.”

"But at that time, we were still a little too young, or it could be said that we were a little too weak. A few of us together might not be able to defeat a synthetic beast, not to mention that Jekyll Island was a completely unfamiliar place to us. place, so we didn’t dare to explore at will, and all we wanted to do was leave here as soon as possible; therefore, I now feel that we have lost 100 million. If we had been bolder and explored one or two more areas, we should have You can get more props. After all, the Yis are a race that runs around and likes to hack accounts. They have mastered the core technologies of many races, and they will also make some prototypes in order to verify these technologies. This It’s completely enough for us.”

 Looking at Yin En and Liu Xing who looked remorseful, Huo Zijun and Ding Kun, who were eating melon next to them, both looked curious.

"Although I haven't fought side by side with you at that time, I still support you for mentioning that module, so I think your choice at that time was very correct, because your strength is too limited, so the fault tolerance rate is too low. Well, if you really want to go to other areas to get any props, you have to be prepared to give them away."

Ding Kun shook his head and said: "But then again, there is always an unbreakable truth in the Cthulhu Running Group game hall, that is, the riskier the operation, the greater the reward when it succeeds in the end! So! Perhaps the final reward you can get in that module is the method of making a synthetic beast? It can even allow each of you to get a synthetic beast, so you are equivalent to getting a lower-level mythical creature as a pet. Can you clear the level without taking any damage until you advance to the Hounds of Tindalos area?”

“There are five mythical creatures as thugs, so I really don’t know how I can lose?”

Yin En nodded and said: "But having said that, my character card itself can also control a Shoggoth, but that Shoggoth is indeed not very obedient, because the strength of my character card is still poor. A little bit, and mythical creatures like Shoggoths themselves are tool men created by the ancient ones. Their intelligence level can only handle some simple tasks, or understand the orders of the ancient ones, so my character card wants to It is quite difficult to tame that shoggoth, because it can understand your commands, but the commands cannot be superimposed and queued, so you will feel very awkward when commanding this shoggoth, and the delay is very high. ”

"By the way, if I remember correctly, when we left Jekyll Island, there seemed to be an explosion in the secret base, so it wouldn't be the explosion that activated some facilities, such as the portal we mentioned before. ?”

Liu Xing frowned and said: "Logically speaking, even when we humans build such large facilities, we will leave some backup options for safety, such as common emergency escape passages, and even prepare some escapes if possible. Equipment, so it’s normal to have an escape portal in the secret base on Jekyll Island. After all, some things are still very important. It would be great if you can save them. So is there such a thing? The possibility is that the monsters in this martial arts module are the synthetic beasts on Jekyll Island!”    “It’s possible!”

Ding Kun said with certainty: "Because the appearance of these monsters is a bit sudden. There was no foreshadowing before this. Moreover, I have also read some folk stories about monsters, and then I discovered such a pattern, that is, the earliest ones to appear." Nine times out of ten, those monsters are unique existences, but the monsters that appear sparsely after that directly turn against Tiangang. They are basically recurring monsters, especially monsters like Fire Tiger that appear every now and then! I remember a statistic that in the past twenty years, there was probably only one new World of Warcraft after every one hundred and fifty."

"It seems that our guess may be correct, because the most important facility in the entire secret base is definitely the synthetic beast production device, and such a production device is usually connected to a recording system to determine different synthesis plans. What is the success rate, and what level of synthetic beast can it be synthesized from? Of course, the costs required to create different synthetic beasts are also different, so at least from our perspective, Warcraft pops up one by one. Yes, there will be a CD of varying lengths between them, so it may be that the backup hidden energy of the manufacturing device has been exhausted, and now it can only be slowly charged through solar energy or something, and then it can collect enough energy. Then create a new monster."

Liu Xing touched his chin and continued his analysis: "The World of Warcraft that appears today are basically animals. There are relatively few birds and fish, especially there are not many kinds of fish! So we can think of this The transported manufacturing device should have landed at the foot of a certain mountain. There is a river that occasionally rises next to it, because only when the water rises can the fish enter the manufacturing device. Of course, it may also be captured by other animals. Brought in."

"Leader, you are right. The Fire Tiger is the Warcraft with the highest appearance rate since the first day it appeared. It can be said that there is no one! However, the Fire Tiger only appears two or three times every one or two years. Only, so this also echoes the basic situation of tigers, because under normal circumstances, tigers in the wild will raise two to three tiger cubs every year; as long as nothing unexpected happens, tigers can treat a mountainous area of ​​a hundred miles as their own There will be almost no other predators on the territory, unless these predators came to this mountain for other reasons. Therefore, except for the fire tiger, about 70% of the Warcraft that have appeared in recent years are Of course, 10% of those who are vegetarians are omnivores.”

Huo Zijun, who had been listening for a long time, also understood what Liu Xing and others were talking about at this time, so he started to speak, "I heard that when you returned to Tianshui Town, leader, you passed by an abandoned town. A longer town, and the reason why this town was abandoned is because the people in the town disappeared without knowing it! This kind of thing is actually quite common in the real world, and it basically happens in communication. The time and place where transportation and traffic conditions are relatively poor, so the so-called disappearance of a village overnight in these incidents is somewhat of an artistic exaggeration, so these so-called mysteries extend the time from one day to the next. If it takes a month, or even half a year, a lot of things will make sense!”

"And let alone hundreds of years ago, even a few decades ago some remote villages might have had more than a hundred people. If calculated as a family unit, there would only be more than ten or twenty households. There is some connection between them, either relatives or in-laws! And remote places like this can generally be described as poor mountains and rivers, so the ability of these villages to resist risks can be said to be very weak. If something happens in a certain year If there is a natural disaster, then these villages will have to suffer a lot. If the natural disaster continues for another two or three years, then there is a possibility that one out of ten of these villages will not survive!”

Liu Xing shook his head and said: "Of course, human beings are very subjective creatures, so when encountering such a situation, they will choose to leave. After all, staying where they are will sooner or later suffocate themselves to death, and these people It is basically impossible to come back after leaving! The reason is simple, they left their hometown without a choice, and after leaving, they are likely to break up into pieces and fight on their own. Generally speaking, the scope of the impact of this natural disaster is not small, so these people who have left their hometowns may be far away, or they may fall down halfway. In short, these people have never thought about coming back after leaving. "

“Unless someone can make a name for himself in a foreign country, and because he is older, he will feel a little homesick, so he may think about going back.”

Yin En said with a smile: "So if the ancestor of Reed Town is really a deep diver, then after staying in this martial arts module for a long time, it will definitely want to go home more and more, because in this martial arts module not only There are no mythical creatures, and there is no Old Dominator! Therefore, it is normal for this deep diver who is a stranger in a foreign land to feel homesick. After all, there is no one around here that he can talk to. What’s more, The thing is that it is indeed very capable, but its ability is not so strong that it is invincible, because even second-rate masters can compete with it, not to mention that first-rate masters can almost win against such an ordinary deep diver as long as they play steadily. ”

"What's more, if this deep diver wants to exert his full strength, he can no longer maintain his human form. Therefore, when a deep diver appears in public view, he may not need the new Dragon Emperor to give orders. The martial arts masters in the surrounding cities will all mobilize, and they will not give up until this deep diver is dealt with. Therefore, if he is sure that his strength is not enough to control a world for Cthulhu, this deep diver will not give up! He decisively chose to live in seclusion and use his abilities to live a better life. However, the problem is that lifespan is difficult to solve, so he had to choose to live in seclusion when the time was up. "

"The life of seclusion is very boring, especially such a seclusion where no one can discover oneself, so this deep diver had to plant reeds near his home to prevent anyone from seeing him from a distance! But like this You can live a life of several decades, but any longer would be a kind of torture for anyone, even a mythical creature. So in the end, this deep diver couldn't bear it anymore, so he chose to drag it away! Let’s go find a way home! Then the question comes back, did this deep diver travel through time with the synthetic beast-making device on Jekyll Island?”
