Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 1251 Bamboo Leaves in the Ashes

   Liu Xing imagined Oda Nobunaga's despair that there was no water around him when he encountered the essence of flame. . . Although water can indeed cause effective damage to the Essence of Fire, the water here must be sufficient, because every two liters of water can cause a little damage to the Essence of Fire.

   Therefore, some players who tried to use bodily fluids to deal with the flame essence were inevitably burned into barbecue in the end.

"If the fire at Honnoji Temple was caused by the Essence of Flame, then it would be very interesting, because normally the Essence of Flames are in outer space with their boss Ketugya, and only special spells can Summoning them to the earth, and the magic of summoning the spirit of fire is quite rare, after all, there are still too few people who believe in fireballs."

Yin En touched his chin and continued: "If it is the spirit of flame summoned by Akechi Mitsuhide, then he will not lose so fast in the future, so I suspect that there is someone else who summoned the spirit of flame, and this person just wants to Throw the cauldron of the change in Honnoji to Mitsuhide Akechi; Mr. Dior, did the folklore you heard mention who was the one who summoned the spirit of fire?"

"No, but it's definitely not Akechi Mitsuhide." Dio shook his head and said: "But in this folklore, it was mentioned that Akechi Mitsuhide once tried to find the remains of Oda Nobunaga, but found nothing, so he thought that Oda Nobunaga might be He escaped from Honnoji, so Akechi Mitsuhide was in a panic because he was worried about Oda Nobunaga, and made a lot of mistakes in the next battle, which eventually led to his own demise."

   After returning to the farm, Liu Xing told others about his discovery of the essence of flame, and Zhang Jingxu and others all frowned because they all knew how difficult the essence of flame was to deal with.

   "Fortunately, there is not much else on our farm, just sandy soil and water, so if the flame spirit dares to come to us to do something, then we will let it know what it means to put out a fire in one second."

Having said this, Ding Kun suddenly froze for a moment, pointed to the ground and said, "Liu Xing, you said that your previous guess about the scorpion was wrong? Because in addition to the scorpion that can dry and harden the surrounding soil, the essence of flame is also the same. The same result can be achieved.”

"Essence of flames? No matter how you think about them, the possibility of these flames is lower than that of a drought, right? You must know that the flames are not permanent residents of the earth, so they can't stay somewhere on the earth without any problems. "

Liu Xing stomped his feet and continued: "And according to what you said, Brother Ding, the flame essence that caused the farm's situation should be related to the flame essence that just burned down the furniture factory, so this means that in our There is actually a dedicated channel for the essence of flame under the feet."

"Yeah, the probability of the Essence of Flame appearing alone in the world can be said to be very low. As for the chance of naturally appearing, it can be directly said to be zero, so unless there is a magician under our feet who can summon the Essence of Flame, otherwise..."

   Before Zhang Jingxu's words were finished, Liu Xing saw gunpowder suddenly appear in the direction of the furniture factory, lighting up the sky again.

   "What's the situation? Hasn't the furniture factory been burnt to rubble? Why is it burning again? Could it be that Yan Zhijing feels unconvinced and wants to fight the fire brigade again."

   This time the flames came and went quickly. The next second after Liu Xing finished speaking, the fire on the furniture factory disappeared again.

"Perhaps the Essence of Flame that slipped through the net was discovered, so this Essence of Flame chose to burn both jade and stone, and came here to live together?" Li Hanxing touched his chin and said, "We won't go there until the middle of the night. Let's take a look at the furniture factory to determine what the fire is and whether there is anything left at the scene."

"As far as the strength of the flame essence, I think there may only be a few relics left at the scene, but then again, don't you think these flame essences are a bit strange? You know that although the flame essence looks like a ball, But their intelligence level is no worse than that of us humans, so when facing fire trucks, they won't go to extremes, right? The big deal is a teleportation to send themselves back to Cthugya."

  Yin En said seriously: "So I suspect that these flame spirits have actually been controlled, but the spirit power of flame spirits is already the best among mythical creatures. It is not easy to control them."

   "That's why we went to the scene to see if there was anything worth noting." Li Hanxing was still promoting his plan.

   So, Li Hanxing, Sun Huiwen, and Mai Yuqiang prepared to visit the furniture factory at night. . . As for the others, those who should go to bed should go to sleep, and those who should be on the night shift should go to the vigil.

   As a result, Liu Xing was woken up by Li Hanxing at around five in the morning, and at this time Li Hanxing looked nervous.

After all the important people in the farm were present, Li Hanxing said: "We found a basement in the ruins of the furniture factory, and the door of this basement has been opened, and it is filled with the smell of sulfur, but the most important thing is What's more, we found an antique-looking stove, about the height of a person, and the most important thing is that this stove is made of an unknown metal, which looks a bit like brass, but a bit like gold."

   "Could such a big stove be an antique?"

Zhang Jingxu made a good gesture, shook his head and said, "Where did you get such a big stove? Things like stoves are generally used for heating, so the size of the fireplace is the limit... Unless this stove is used to burn things, I believe you should understand what I mean."

   "No no no, you must know that this stove can be called a work of art!"

Li Hanxing said seriously: "If it weren't for the fact that the few of us couldn't bring it back, otherwise you would be in front of the big stove, but let's get back to the point, the rest of the basement is full of smoke and fire. However, the furnace is as clean as new, so I doubt that the furnace is actually a magic tool."

"Magic props used to summon the essence of flame?" Liu Xing continued: "This is unlikely, the mythical creature of the essence of flame was created by the old ruler - Ketu Gea himself, and even some Rumor has it that the Fire Essence is part of Cthugya, the little fireballs that fall from Cthugya; all in all, the Fire Essence is unlikely to have been created from that large furnace, unless that's just Fire A fake and shoddy version of the essence."

   "Teleportation Array?"

Zhang Jingxu stood up and said: "Although the traditional teleportation array is to draw a formation on the ground, it is time-consuming and laborious, and it cannot be moved casually, so some people have begun to study that kind of portable teleportation array, that is, using various Use a variety of items to delineate the magic circle, such as the big furnace that Li Hanxing and the others saw; because the interior of the furnace is an arc, the lines of the magic circle can be extended with the arc of the furnace, so that the entire magic circle occupies The land area will be much smaller.”

   As soon as Zhang Jingxu finished speaking, Li Hanxing nodded and said, "Yes, the outside of this large stove is as smooth as a mirror, but the inside is full of complicated patterns, so I thought it was an antique stove similar to a snuff bottle."

"Then the case is solved, this is a portable teleportation array that may not be so portable, and it is specially used to transmit the essence of flame, but in this way, the creator of this furnace may not be very simple, after all, it is still the same sentence, Yan The essence of life is by Ctugya's side, and if you want to open a door next to Cthugya, that's not something ordinary people can do."

   Zhang Jingxu stood up and said seriously: "It's not too late, let's get the fire extinguisher and the big truck ready now, let's take out that big stove! This thing is a big treasure."

  So, Liu Xing and others began to divide the labor and cooperate, and soon drove a convoy to the side of the furniture factory.

Because the furniture factory was almost burned at this time, so after a simple search, the fire brigade just pulled a cordon and left. As for why there was a sudden explosion, the fire brigade in Nagoya was pushing The reason given above is the pipeline problem of natural gas.

"it's here."

Li Hanxing, who took the lead, walked to the lower right corner of the furniture factory and said: "This should be the warehouse of the furniture factory, because the charcoal here is the most, and there are a lot of burnt powder that may be flour; so I think the furniture factory's warehouse The first fire was probably when the flame essence broke the flour bags in the warehouse when he left the basement, so the flour flying in the sky was detonated by the flame essence, and then the flame essence slipped out. The furniture factory was set on fire... As a result, they didn't expect the fire brigade's water gun to kill them, so the essence of flame was destroyed under the suppression of the water gun."

"The reasoning is good, but judging from the current situation, the owner of the furniture factory should know the existence of this basement, so since he did not take away this great stove, which looks like an antique, the reason is very likely. It is he who knows what this stove does... So I think that the factory manager who is called Lao Liu lied. The fire was probably caused under his guidance. As for those unlucky furniture factory employees , Nine times out of ten, it has become a charging treasure for the essence of flame, because the essence of flame can steal the target's mana while attacking."

"Is it a power bank? If so, it would be interesting, because it means that these flame spirits are mythical creatures that are resident on earth and often act, which means that there is likely to be a mythical creature in the island country. Believe in the secret church of Cthugya."

   Having said that, Liu Xing looked at Alice, because among the people present, Alice had a better understanding of the secret church in the island country.

"I haven't heard of this kind of secret church that believes in Ketugya in the island country, or there are not many such secret churches in the world, because Ketugya is different from the old rulers we know, It belongs to the old ruler who has no entity, although the flame can also be regarded as entity in a sense, and its relatives, the flame essence, do not often move on the earth, so they believe in Cthugya. There are very few secret churches, and they are basically not very powerful."

Alice paused and continued: "This is actually quite in line with our human development line. For example, at the beginning of the primitive period, we can be said to be in awe of the flame, because the flame at this time is often accompanied by thunder. appeared, so many tribes will express their admiration for fire, and even add it to their totems; but when humans gradually master the skills of making fire, the fear of fire begins to fade away, so the things people believe in begin to With entities, there are quite a few animals among them, especially those beasts... As a result, in the later stage, after these beasts became the prey of humans, humans began to believe in their own people."

Liu Xing thought for a while, nodded and said, "Yeah, now there are many secret churches that believe in Cthulhu, Hastur, the humanoid ruler of the old days, and the beast-like old days like Ig and Glaki. Although the Dominators also have many secret churches that believe in them, they are much less than the former; and when it comes to the non-physical old Dominators like Cthugya, not only are there very few people who believe in it, they even know about it. It is the Old Ones and even less so."

   "Yeah, if you don't say it, who knows that the Old Ones will be a fire?"

   Mai Yuqiang shook his head and said, "If it wasn't for the existence of the flame essence that let us know about Ketu Gea's situation, we might have turned Ketu Gea into a terrifying natural disaster by now."

   "So, how long do you want to talk about? Are we going to go in? If we don't go in and steal the big stove, the sky will be bright soon."

   Yin En walked into the basement while talking, while Liu Xing and others walked in with a fire extinguisher.

   Soon, Liu Xing saw the big stove that Li Hanxing said.

   One thing to say, this big stove is really a bit big, and it looks very scary when it is only illuminated by a flashlight, because this big stove looks a bit like a funeral home. . .

   Wait, what is this?

   When Liu Xing looked around, he suddenly found a piece of ashes beside the big stove, but a little green was faintly revealed in the ashes.

   Driven by curiosity, Liu Xing went straight up and pulled out a leaf with the pipe of the fire extinguisher.

   Bamboo leaves!

   When he saw this bamboo leaf, Liu Xing subconsciously thought of Bamboo Tori, so he immediately picked up this bamboo leaf, but there was no reaction at all.

   That is to say, this is just an ordinary bamboo leaf.

   However, Liu Xing still thinks that this bamboo leaf is likely to be related to Bamboo Tori!
