my cthulhu game

Chapter 23 Welcome to the Glamorgan Hotel

Tu Lizhu is not a fool, what Bai Shaobao can think of, she can also think of...

Chen Qiang is an insider of the game company and doesn't want to stand out; Bai Shaobao obviously has his own concerns; Shi Li and Qiu Jie are not good as captains.

On the contrary, I, who has a relatively thin sense of existence, is more suitable for this position.

"When we encounter difficulties, we will vote to decide," said Tu Lizhu, "just like when deciding whether the game style is [original] or [popular]."

"That's a good idea." Chen Qiang immediately gave a thumbs up.

"I agree too." Bai Shaobao had no better way.

"What if there are three options? Two to two to one." Sister Qiu frowned slightly, concentrating on her thoughts.

"Then get rid of that one and vote again." Shi Li said flatly.

It's just the Cthulhu group, is it necessary to be so intriguing?
No, it is precisely because it is Cthulhu in the real world, so intrigue is the norm.

Running out of infinite feeling, praise, Chen Qiang said heartily.

"Then let's start." Tu Lizhu took a deep breath.

For the first time, she has the look of the captain.

【The game is about to start】

[If you have any questions during the game, or if you want to apply for a special skill check, please consult the keeper]

[You can apply to communicate with the Secret Keeper by directly shouting "Keeper of the Secret" into the air, but the Keeper of the Secret has the right to ignore it. 】

Except for Chen Qiang, everyone else rolled their eyes.

Chen Qiang looked expressionless, but in his heart he wanted to...

The system's AI can handle some basic questions, such as "I want to investigate this room", but for particularly complicated questions, he must answer them himself.

And if he himself was busy with other things at the time, he might not have time to respond...

[If you want to force quit the game, please communicate with the keeper. 】

[Please note that if the NPC hears you shouting the word "Secret Keeper", the SAN value will be deducted as appropriate.In front of NPCs, communicating with your real identities will not only arouse their suspicion, but also deduct the SAN value. 】

[Please play your respective investigator roles well, and do not perform actions that are absolutely impossible for game characters. The system reserves the right to deduct SAN values ​​for all "super travel" behaviors. 】

"So hardcore." Tu Lizhu muttered.

"My audience..." Sister Qiu began to miss the water friends of Fighting Dragon TV, and even the joy of playing virtual reality games for the first time faded a lot.

Only Shi Li looked eager to try.

I hope this script is suitable for them, and they can see all the reactions, Chen Qiang thought to himself.

In this trial space, he can choose many more modules, mainly Hastur or ghoul-related modules, as well as "human-caused terror" modules, and the Cthulhu he came into contact with in the real world. Fairytale category.

As for the content of the mod... Chen Qiang only knew the introduction and a simple outline, without a detailed script.

What he can currently modify cannot involve core puzzles, but that doesn't mean he can't do anything.

Everyone's consciousness was interrupted for a moment, and then reconnected instantly.

……

[Module Name: Curse of the Hanged King]

[A few years ago, Wales, England, Glamorgan area. 】

In the darkness, a cold mechanical sound sounded.

[You are invited to the Earl of Glamorgan Hotel to attend the press conference of the new work "Curse of the Hanged King" by the famous game producer Hideki Yoshikawa. 】

[Hideki Yoshikawa's games are known for their high difficulty and enjoy a high reputation in the industry. 】

[This special press conference is only open to industry insiders and a few lucky players. 】

[You are just ordinary international students and musicians. If it weren't for Miss Tu's relationship, as Miss. Autumn, Mr. Bai and Mr. Chen, I'm afraid you wouldn't be eligible for the invitation letter. 】

[Now, you are sitting in Miss Tu's car. 】

【Games start……】

……

Everyone's eyes were blurred, and when they recovered, they were already sitting in the car.The car parked safely on the side of the road. Tu Lizhu in black was sitting in the driver's seat, sister Qiu in a white dress was in the passenger seat, and two men in cheap suits were in the back seat.

The night sky is full of stars, and the black Earl of Glamorgan Hotel stands not far away. In the center is the main tower for viewing. Three curved buildings surround the viewing tower. There is an artificial lake between each two. The entire building The group is huge but gives people a feeling of depression.

[Currently, the straight-line distance from the Earl of Glamorgan Hotel is 500 meters.If you leave the hotel more than 1000 meters away, the game will fail. 】

"This car...is my car?" Tu Lizhu was surprised.She glanced at the car's rearview mirror, and her appearance didn't change.

【Your eyes are still the original appearance.When using a character other than your own, you will be the image of the character in the eyes of the NPC. 】

"It's a nice car," Tu Lizhu—or rather, Christina Tu—jumped out of the car, "Chevrolet Camaro! Bumblebee!"

"We all know that your character is the richest among us," Bai Shaobao said, "but..."

"...You should notice that there are more serious problems..." Sister Qiu said slowly.

"What? Car keys?" Tu Lizhu glanced into the car, "Isn't this here?"

"No," Chen Qiang said, "the problem is that there are only four of us."

"..." Tu Lizhu instantly woke up from the excitement of owning a Chevrolet Camaro.

"Where's Shirley?"

……

at the same time.

The bar at the Earl of Glamorgan Hotel.

Alison Smith-Shili was alone behind the bar in a daze.

[Module Name: Curse of the Hanged King]

[Wales, England, Glamorgan area. 】

[The press conference of the famous game producer Hideki Yoshikawa's new work "The Hanged King's Curse" will be held at the historic Earl of Glamorgan Hotel. 】

[The female bartender at the bar at the Earl of Glamorgan Hotel is your good sister, but unfortunately she has a bad cold and has to ask you to take over. 】

[You know that your friends will also come to this conference, so you are determined to give them an unexpected surprise. 】

[If you leave the hotel more than 1000 meters away, the game will fail. 】

[Now, the game begins...]

Shi Li was stunned for a while.She looked at herself, and the system had automatically changed her into a bartender's clothes.

"Isn't it? I'm the only one!"

……

Cars come and go on the street.

"Keeper!" Bai Shaobao calmly shouted to the night sky outside the window, "I have a question—where is Alison Smith now?"

[Player Shi Li has entered the game. 】

"Then where is she now?"

no respond.

"Calm down," Chen Qiang said, "Dude. The game has just begun."

"This question should be beyond the scope of the system's answer," said Qiu Jie. "The system must have arranged for her to enter the game from another place."

"That's also very strange," Tu Lizhu said anxiously, "We are a five-member team, why did some members leave the team at the beginning?"

This is a systematic arrangement and has nothing to do with me, Chen Qiang shrugged.

"Maybe the first challenge set for us," he said.

"Meeting?" Sister Qiu thought deeply, "Xiao Tu, don't think about it yet, let's start the car. Watch the navigation and take the nearest route to the Earl of Glamorgan Hotel."

"But……"

"Do as she says." Bai Shaobao whispered.
