Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 1475 Mods for Grandpas

   "Dad, make money."

   Liu Xing unceremoniously stretched out his hand and said: "Didn't you say before that when I have a girlfriend, you will give me money to buy a house?"

What Liu Xing didn't expect was that Liu's father took out a bank card directly from the drawer and said seriously: "The password is your birthday, and the money in it should be enough for you to buy a set of hundreds of square meters anywhere in Rongcheng. New house, but you have to promise to get married within a year, otherwise this bank card will be temporarily placed with me."

Liu Xing looked at Liu's father in shock, and couldn't help asking: "Isn't it right, the average house price in the center of Rongcheng is 20,000-30,000 yuan, so can this card have 3-4 million yuan? Our family doesn't have much money, right?"

   Liu Xing's clinic has been open for more than ten years, and according to Liu Xing, although the annual profit of his clinic is about 200,000, the usual expenses are also a lot. . . And one thing to say, Liu Xing thinks that his family is the kind of person who enjoys life, so he goes to restaurants every three or five days, and he does not go too much when it comes to travel.

   Therefore, Liu Xing always felt that it was too much to have a deposit of about one million.

   "There are actually more than five million in this card."

Father Liu said very seriously: "Our clinic has actually earned about one million over the years, and the remaining four million is actually the inheritance left by your grandfather. If I remember correctly, it was when your grandfather died. A few years ago, he sold some antiques in the family."

antique?

Liu Xing thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Why didn't I hear that grandpa had any antiques before? And our family didn't leave their hometown very early to live in the county, so if there are antiques in our hometown, our family will also be divided. Can't you? Besides, I haven't heard that the second grandpa and his family have any antiques?"

Facing Liu Xing's question, Liu's father also showed a puzzled expression, "Actually, I was very puzzled when I got the money, because I have not heard that your grandfather has collected antiques before, and our hometown There have never been any dignitaries there, so it's unlikely that there are too valuable antiques... But your grandfather used to be a soldier outside for a few years, so maybe it's an antique brought back from abroad."

Liu Xing nodded and asked curiously: "By the way, I remember that grandpa seemed to be a soldier in the frontier, right? The Hetian jade over there is quite valuable, and the output at that time was also quite large. "

   "That's true. It seems that the jade bracelet your mother gave to Tian Qing was brought back by your grandfather from the frontier.

Father Liu took out a cigarette, lit it and said, "By the way, I shouldn't have told you that your grandfather encountered a very strange thing when he was in the army, and it was also because of this incident that your grandfather was born. Got a jade bracelet."

   Liu Xing raised his brows, and a few big words suddenly appeared in his mind - Cthulhu Running Group Game Hall.

No way?

   "It's okay to be idle now, Dad, can you tell me the story of grandpa back then?" Liu Xing asked pretending to be curious.

Father Liu nodded and said, "This was mentioned by your grandfather when he was drinking with his comrades after returning from the army. I just got up to go to the toilet at that time, so I overheard your grandfather and his comrades in arms. At that time, recruits who went out from the same county had a high probability of being assigned to the same place, so your grandfather and three fellow villagers were assigned to the frontier. After the recruit training was completed, they were assigned to a frontier post. , but the situation in that place is not bad, there is a small county nearby."

"But there is a very mysterious story circulating in that small county, that is, there used to be a small country near the border, but it didn't exist for a long time and then suddenly disappeared. Of course, this was normal in ancient times. All the countries in the Western Regions dare to call themselves countries if they have a city, but they may not be able to handle even hundreds of horse bandits, so in ten years, at least half of the countries in the Western Regions will either disappear or change their names. Change your name."

"So your grandfather and the others didn't care at the beginning, and they didn't usually see the remains left by that small country, but after a year or so, it seems that an archaeological team suddenly came in the summer. , said it was going to investigate whether this small country really existed..."

Hearing the appearance of the archaeological team, Liu Xing knew that this matter was mostly related to the game hall of the Cthulhu running group, but Liu Xing didn't know the order here - he participated in the Cthulhu run first. In the group game hall, there is still his grandfather who became the NPC of the Cthulhu running group game hall.

Liu Xing thinks the latter is more likely, because if this incident really involves the Cthulhu running group game hall, then the players in this mod should be members of the archaeological team; and this incident should have happened in Forty or fifty years ago, the game hall of the Cthulhu running group had not yet officially "debuted", so the game hall of the Cthulhu running group changed the history of this time period, so it could only be done through some special modules. .

   But the question is, why is there such a special mod?

It stands to reason that Liu Xing feels that the special modules in the Cthulhu running group game hall can be roughly divided into two types. The first type is a pure independent module, which will not be related to other modules. For example, Liu Xing has experienced it before. The dream module and the sky island module; and another special module occurs on the timeline that has long passed, and then the result of this special module will affect the later timeline, such as Liu Xing grabbing back The mod that "Liu Xing" experienced when he was a character card allowed him to establish a connection with NPCs such as **** ghouls.

   However, the special modules of the former type basically take place in special spaces, such as the dream world or something.

   So, what happened to that special mod back then?

"Because that archaeological team brought a lot of valuable instruments, the platoon where your grandfather was in took up the task of defending and set off after preparing the supplies; it turned out that it was different with the presence of professionals. The archaeological team soon discovered the ruins of the kingdom in the area where your grandfather and the others often patrolled, and it didn't take much effort to find the entrance. As a result, it suddenly rained heavily at this time. In order to protect the instrument, everyone had to enter. among the ruins."

"How do you say this ruin, it should be located in a hollowed out hill, and the entrance is mostly covered by sand and stone, so your grandfather and the others didn't find this ruin usually, but it's a little strange that the buildings in this ruin or something There were no signs of weathering, which surprised the archaeologists, but your grandfather found a few young archaeologists with dignified expressions; They were all archaeologists who had just returned from America, or college students who had just graduated."

   Miskatonic University!

   Liu Xing can be sure that the archaeology team members are all archaeology graduates from Miskatonic University, and they should all be players!

   This mod is a bit interesting.

   At this time, Father Liu also noticed Liu Xing's strange expression, so he asked curiously, "Huh? Liu Xing, have you heard of this story?"

   Liu Xing shook his head and said with a smile: "I just thought that I have a friend who is studying archaeology in America now, so I don't know if those people are her seniors."

"Well, in fact, I've always been curious about one thing, that is, America is only a few hundred years old, so they don't have to set up any archaeology major? They don't have any history there, because the Indians with history are all They were kept in captivity." Father Liu complained.

Liu Xing shrugged and said: "Maybe they want to invent it? After all, many historical discoveries in recent decades abroad can be described as appearing out of thin air, and suddenly some cultural relics were discovered somewhere; Dad, you'd better keep telling the story."

Father Liu nodded and continued: "As the archaeology progresses, your grandfather and the others, as non-professionals, have nothing to do except do some hard work, so if you are idle, you will be idle, and your grandfather will run to the entrance. Chu Wangfeng, of course, is called Wangfeng. In fact, he is responsible for checking the weather outside. If the weather gets better, the archaeological team plans to withdraw to the county for further rest, and then hire more manpower and vehicles to excavate. But it is a relatively well-preserved ruins of an ancient city.”

"As a result, when your grandfather saw that the heavy rain had stopped outside, and was about to report the situation back, he suddenly saw a black shadow passing quickly between the two buildings. At that time, your grandfather thought he was blinded. After all, after watching the heavy rain for a long time before, some visual residues are normal; of course, your grandfather also thinks that this may be some small animal. After all, this ruin is a natural haven and nest for the nearby small animals, and the result is here. At that time, your grandfather saw a few dark shadows again."

As Father Liu said, he took out a prescription and folded a triangle, "Didn't I say before that the ruins of this kingdom are located in a hollowed out hill, and then blocked due to geological changes and flying sand and rocks. Most of the entrances, so the archaeological team had to take such a **** when entering the ruins, so your grandfather was on the **** at that time, and it was the best view of everyone, so only your grandfather found those black holes. film."

"Your grandfather realized that something might be wrong, so he ran down to inform the matter, but the person in charge of the archaeological team didn't care much, because he also thought it was just some small animals, so he just asked your grandfather and their weapons. Loaded and alerted; after a while, when the archaeological team was preparing to retreat, someone found that there were traces of life in a building, and it looked quite new, but many people thought it was actually a long time ago. down."

"From a professional point of view, the environment where the relic is located is quite suitable for the protection of cultural relics, so both the building and other things inside are complete... But what your grandfather and others did not expect is that the original The heavy rain that had stopped suddenly started to fall again, and thunder and lightning began. In short, the light in the ruins suddenly dimmed, but more importantly, there was a strange sound in the depths of the ruins, as if someone whispering."

"You also know the situation in those years. The importance of those instruments is self-evident, so some archaeological teams did not want to go back in the rain, so they could only stay in the ruins to set up camp and lit a bonfire, but it didn't rain until after dark. I stopped; but the night road over there is not easy to walk, so the archaeological team can only stay overnight... The result can be imagined, your grandfather did not say much about the specific situation, only mentioned that only half of the people Left the ruins alive and sealed the ruins shortly after."

Speaking of this, Father Liu showed a puzzled expression, "If I remember correctly, one of your grandpa's comrades mentioned the body of some villain, and then a returnee archaeological team gave your grandpa some gifts, because Your grandfather seems to have saved his life, so I suspect that the jade bracelet and antique were given to your grandfather by that person."

  The corpse of the villain?

Liu Xing frowned, and immediately thought of Qiuqiu people, because in Cthulhu mythology, Qiuqiu people can be described as villains, and these monsters also like to live in such dark "cave", The most important thing is that the san values ​​of these Qiuqiu people are almost single digits, so even if they are in a disadvantageous position, they will try their best to launch attacks, even at the cost of their own lives.

Moreover, the frontier is not far from Lengyuan, so the kingdom of that year was probably destroyed by the Qiuqiu people who came out of the dreamland, and then some Qiuqiu people stayed in the ruins of the kingdom, while others Qiu people either went home or spread to other places, such as going to the snow area next door.

But what still puzzles Liu Xing is that the result of this special module should be that players successfully pass the customs, that is, they leave the ruins of the kingdom alive, but their gains should be very limited. As for the corpses of Qiuqiu people, Liu Xing thinks that It's useless, after all, this mythical creature is only commendable for "not afraid of death".

   So what effect does this special mod have on the current world line? Is it to let the official know that there are mythical creatures in this world?

   In addition, Liu Xing could not understand why the player gave so many good things to his grandfather? Of course, these seemingly valuable things are actually worthless to players, and they can even be considered cumbersome, so it seems normal to give them away?
