Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 1318 Another big tree

   "So, will I still have a chance to be a kp in the future?" Liu Xing asked curiously.

   The reason for this question is that Liu Xing wants to see if he still has such a retreat in the future. . . Rather than die because of torn cards, it is better to live as a kp in the Cthulhu running group game hall.

   It is better to die than to live.

"Actually, Liu Xing, it's not impossible for you to want to be a kp, because starting from the Hound of Tindalos, there is a chance that players will be recruited as kp before they are obliterated because they don't have a character card, but what is the probability here? It also depends on the player's comment hidden score, I believe Liu Xing, you have also heard the discussion of hidden score in the forum, right?"

Kp Broken Bridge said with a smile: "Simply put, the Cthulhu Running Group game hall will give a score to each player who passes the module, because this score will not be directly disclosed to the player, so this is called hidden points; most of the time, hidden points are useless, or the only function of hidden points is to use your usual scores to reach the admission line of higher-level areas, that is, to trigger the promotion module, which is also Some players only need to pass five mods to advance, while some players have passed more than ten mods without triggering the reason for the upgrade mod."

"Of course, this is the reason why there are not many players in the Cthulhu area, because the admission score of the Cthulhu area is too high, and the Cthulhu area has one more requirement than the previous area, that is, before In the area of ​​​​the Cthulhu area, you only need the total score of the hidden score to meet the requirements to open the promotion module, but the Cthulhu area also requires the average hidden score of the player to reach a certain value, which means that the player must ensure that most of the modes they experience The group has maintained excellent performance... As for the promotion to the Azathoth area, it still requires players to achieve three full-point performances in the Cthulhu area."

"Of course, in fact, it is not difficult to achieve a full score in the Cthulhu area, because the highest mod before the Cthulhu area has only 150 hidden points, of course, players can only get 100 of them. Points, the overflowed points are directly erased, but the modules in the Cthulhu area will have at least 200 hidden points, so it is easier for players to get 100 hidden points, but the Cthulhu area has at least 200 hidden points. The mods are all super long versions, and now there are only a few players in our parallel world doing their own second Cthulhu region mods."

"Back to the previous topic, the calculation rules of hidden points are actually quite interesting. Just like Liu Xing, you used to take the Chinese test in school. Some of the exercises are based on your basic knowledge. You can score as long as you do it right. , for example, ask an important NPC to get relevant information from him; then it is a topic of reading comprehension, which is to analyze the information or plot, as long as the analysis is reasonable, you can score points, even if the analysis results It’s okay to be wrong, of course, if the analysis is right, you can get more points.”

"In the end, of course, is the composition. What the composition needs is to review the topic and write around the topic. This is reflected in the game hall of the Cthulhu Run Group, which is the whole process of the player's customs clearance, intelligence collection at the beginning, mid-term plot analysis, and later responses. There will be different scoring mechanisms for processing. The points are given directly by a system in the game hall of the Cthulhu running group, which has nothing to do with our kp; but just like the language test paper will have a score, our kp also has it. There are points, so the scores here are more subjective.”

"Each kp has its own personality. Of course, except for some kp with extreme thinking, most kp will directly give full points, unless the player has done some harmless things in order to clear the customs, among which the biggest deduction item is It is to sell teammates. If it is a last resort, it is okay to say, but if it is only for their own better pass, or to sell teammates for other purposes, KP will basically not give points to such players; in a word, hidden points. This thing is important and important, and if it is not important, it is really not very important, it mainly depends on whether the players are motivated, and whether they are ready to advance to a higher area."

   Hearing what KP Broken Bridge said, Liu Xing couldn't help but ask again: "So how is my hidden score now, has it reached the standard?"

"For team players, there is another set of promotion criteria, which is to see what the average hidden points of the entire team is. Of course, large-scale events like the Battle of Gongwu will give out additional hidden points, so you can indeed prepare to advance to the model. Formed, but the premise is to ensure that your own faction wins in the battle of public martial arts, and to become the group of players with the highest contribution among the players of your own faction."

  kp Broken Bridge didn't give a shit, and said directly: "So Liu Xing, don't you plan to go to Nohara Village to take a look? I think if you stand outside for a long time, I'm afraid you will be mistaken by the villagers as a bad guy?"

Liu Xing looked at the empty village entrance, shook his head and said, "Is there anyone looking at me now, I should be fine if I stay outside for dozens of minutes; but this is similar to my previous guess, this Nohara Village is also a gathering place."

Like other villages, there are dozens of households living in Noyuan Village, but from the outside of the village, Liu Xing feels that Noyuan Village seems to be surrounded by a circle, because there is a big tree in the middle of the circle. It was estimated to be more than ten meters high.

   Sure enough, it’s a tree again.

   Liu Xing shook his head and entered Nohara Village.

   As soon as he walked into Noyuan Village, Liu Xing felt that something was wrong, because the doors of the houses were open as far as he could see, but there was not a single villager, not even a sound.

   The Nohara Village at this moment is an unmanned village in Liu Xing's view.

   But Liu Xing did not forget that in the previous world, he saw many villagers of Noyuan Village, so it is impossible for this Noyuan Village to be empty.

   Therefore, Liu Xing can only cautiously move towards the direction of the big tree. After all, the core of this mod is a word - tree, so you should be able to find something when you go to the big tree now.

   As a result, Liu Xingzhen made a big discovery next to the big tree, because all the villagers of Noyuan Village seemed to be here and were holding some kind of ceremony.

Looking at the villagers of Yeyuan Village who were standing around the big tree and bowing their heads in prayer, Liu Xing decided to step back, because Liu Xing subconsciously felt that if he "disturbed" the villagers of Yeyuan Village at this time, it might cause them "Dissatisfaction", then he may restart the world again.

  So Liu Xing went back to the village entrance again, and sneaked in at the entrance of the village, and waited until the villagers of Nohara Village were disbanded before pretending to be the first time.

The sudden appearance of Liu Xing caught the attention of the villagers, so an old man came over.

   Before the old man could speak, Liu Xing cupped his hands and said, "Master, I'm an exorcist from Sawada Shrine. Is this Kujing Village?"

"Exorcist?!"

   The people around who heard Liu Xing's words were in an uproar, and two people who responded quickly ran away, as if they were going to notify someone.

   Seeing this, Liu Xing suddenly panicked again, because Liu Xing did not know whether the villagers in Noyuan Village had regarded themselves as enemies. After all, that big tree might also belong to the exorcist's business scope in their opinion?

   But I was a little flustered in my heart, but Liu Xing still put on a calm look on the surface.

   After a while, a middle-aged man with a face full of flesh walked up to Liu Xing's side, "I'm Nohara Yinmao, the village head of Nohara Village, may I ask what is your business in Kujing Village?"

  Nohara Tora Mao?

   Yin Mao?

   This naming style is exactly the same as Tatsumi Yamashita.

While thinking about it, Liu Xing explained the reasons he had prepared a long time ago, "So I went to the wrong place, then ask Nohara Village Chief to show me the way to Kujing Village, my master heard that There are often Shenyin incidents on the side, so I suspect that there are monsters at work, so I specially ordered me to go to Kujing Village to inquire, and if I find a monster, I should get rid of it as soon as possible, so that the monster will not be a disaster."

   Hearing Liu Xing's words, Nohara Yinmao's eyes lit up, "So that's the case, it seems that the teacher is also a warm-hearted person, even a small place like us cares so much."

"Oh, since you said so, Nohara Village Chief, it means that there are indeed many Shenyin incidents here?" Liu Xing pretended to be curious and asked: "So you can tell me about the village here in detail. Did something happen?"

Nohara Yinmao nodded, then took Liu Xing to his house to sit down, and then began to talk, "It's like this, our village, no, it should be happening in several villages in our area. The Shenyin incident, and the time span is also very large. As far as I know, the earliest one happened more than a hundred years ago, but the specific situation at that time is unverifiable, or because some people continue to add oil and vinegar in the process of dissemination As a result, the version of the story circulating now is no longer known to be true or false."

"However, in the last few decades, or since I started to remember, I have experienced several Shenyin incidents, one of which happened in our Nohara Village; I still remember that ten years ago, I brought When we brought our children back for the Chinese New Year, all the children in the village ran out to play, and we adults didn’t care much, because the people in these eight townships were all our own people, and it didn’t take long for all the children to run over. Said a child was missing."

"That kid is my nephew, so I immediately joined the searchers, and when I was searching, I felt that something was wrong, because the kid disappeared while playing a war game, simple In other words, the group of children is divided into two sides, one side chooses a place as a base, and then a wooden stick is placed as a flag, and whoever grabs the flag first on both sides will win."

"The kid who was missing at the time wanted to be a ninja and was going to sneak into the past, so he hid under the ridge next to him, and there was no water in the field at that time, so in fact it was almost peaceful; the result After more than ten minutes passed like this, his teammates found that he hadn't emerged for a long time, so they asked him to give up lurking and come back to help the defense, only to find that he was missing."

"In the place where I went missing, I found the footprints of the child and some smashed dirt, but these traces suddenly stopped in one place, and I didn't find similar traces around, of course, it's more important The only thing is that the other children didn't find any abnormality, so this matter was called the name of Shenyin, but I still didn't take it seriously at the time, I thought it was someone who did it deliberately, but we haven't found any clues yet. "

"Later, because our Nohara Village is a clan-themed village, the head of the Nohara clan is the village head of Nohara Village. As a result, because other candidates for the head of the family either quit or were unable to serve as the village head for various reasons, I even I was forced to serve as the mayor of the village. You must know that I still have a company to manage in Nagoya, so I return to the village several times a year. For example, today is the tree **** festival in our village, and the ceremony has just been completed."

"Uh, back to the topic, after I became the village head, I heard that there was a Shenyin incident in the Jinyu Village next door, and the general context of this Shenyin incident was similar to the Shenyin incident that happened in our Nohara Village. The missing person They were all small children, and the surrounding direct witnesses were also small children, and they all disappeared after the missing person left other people's sight, so I felt something was wrong with this."

Speaking of which, Nohara Tora Mao took out an amulet and said, "This is what I asked for in a temple in Nagoya. Of course, my children are also one, and the host of that temple also said that we may be hiding one here. The monsters specialize in catching children, so I will not bring children when I come back these years, and this is also an important reason why there are no children in the nearby villages."

   To Liu Xing's surprise, Nohara Yinmao's amulet turned out to be an old seal.

Nohara Yinmao saw that Liu Xing was looking at his amulet in a wrong way, so he handed the amulet to Liu Xing, "Brother, look at this amulet, is it really useful? Although this amulet was indeed bought by me at a high price. Yes, but I always felt like that old monk was fooling me, because, uh, how can I put it, I don't know how to describe the feeling at that time."

Liu Xing took the old seal amulet and looked at it, and found nothing unusual, so he returned it to Nohara Yinmao, "This amulet is indeed useful, but the effect is very general, because different amulets have Different protection principles, some are active, some are passive, and your amulet is passive, which can reduce the monster's desire to attack you."
