Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 1507 The Tactic of Tired Soldiers

"I'm going, ten times ten combination locks, the combination that can be arranged is an astronomical number? We may not be able to get it right after a year." Yin En said, "I don't know if we are here. Are there any cryptography experts on the expedition, but even if there are, it would be difficult to crack such a code?"

   Liu Xing glanced at the words on the combination lock and found that they all seemed to be some strange patterns, or maybe they were hieroglyphs. In short, they were unlikely to represent numbers.

If it is a text password, as long as the specific meaning of some words can be cracked, then the password can be cracked by making a sentence. Of course, this password may also have random garbled characters, but since all text passwords are used, Liu Xing I think this password should be a paragraph. . . After all, this mod is unlikely to last for too long, so this combination lock should not be able to stop the group for too long.

At this time, Norton said: "Let's withdraw now, this combination lock still needs to be handled by professionals, if we try randomly now, it will be difficult to successfully unlock the lock, and it may be disrupted. The cracking ideas of professionals.”

  Since Norton said so, everyone present began to withdraw from the ruins in an orderly manner, leaving only Muriqi responsible for handing over the next group of people.

As a true comprehensive university, Miskatonic University offers majors covering 99% of occupations, so Norton quickly found a few students who had taken cryptography as an elective and let them go in and try to crack the password. Of course, Norton also knew that although these students were the best among their peers, in the end, they were all just on paper, so Norton called the school and asked them to send a few more cryptography majors to help.

   Of course, Norton did not forget those gems, so he brought in a few more alchemists to help, but these alchemists are still living in seclusion in the Europa countries, so it may take a few days to come.

   "Looks like we can have a good rest for a few days."

Ding Kun took out a tea set from his suitcase and said with a smile: "I knew this expedition would not end so soon, so I brought a set of tea sets to pass the time, so ladies and gentlemen, what do you think? What would you like to drink?"

   "Lemon tea with rock sugar." Liu Xing said very seriously.

  Ding Kun rolled his eyes at Liu Xing and ignored it.

   In the end, Ding Kun made a pot of black tea, and everyone sat on the ground in a circle, as if they were out on an outing.

Of course, the same is true for the other members of the expedition team. They gather in groups of three or five to play their own games. After all, there is really nothing to do right now, but some people are still arranged on the periphery of the camp to be responsible for vigilance. After all, The details of that group of robbers have not yet been understood, so it is not known whether these robbers will make a comeback.

   It took half a day to pass, and those students who took cryptography as electives returned without success, because it is difficult to determine what those patterns represent without reference objects. After all, these patterns look quite special. . . In other words, it has little resemblance to today's flora and fauna, the sun and the moon.

   "It seems that those patterns are depicting certain things from the past, and these things seem to have disappeared long ago, so we can only guess and try our luck..."

During lunch time, Norton said helplessly: "It seems that we have to stay in Dihai for a few more days this time. If you don't bring enough change of clothes or daily necessities, you can also report to Ms. Elizabeth now. , we will arrange personnel to deliver these materials as soon as possible."

At this time, Elizabeth continued: "If there is no accident, I will report the statistical results to the school tonight, because the capital of Earthsea is still in chaos, so materials can only be shipped from America. It will even be delivered by airdrop, so when you declare materials, try not to have rare and broken items, of course, not to mention flammable and explosive."

   "So can we apply for a set of mahjong?" Zhang Wenbing whispered: "If it really doesn't work, poker can also be played."

   "That's a bit too much."

   As soon as Zhang Jingxu finished speaking, someone asked loudly if he could drop a few handhelds in the air, but Elizabeth got a positive answer, so Liu Xing and others also wrote mahjong on their demand form.

   After lunch, Liu Xing and the others went for a walk around Dakeng to digest food while discussing the current findings.

"Those gems should be used for defense, but the effect seems to be relatively general." Liu Xing looked at the sun in the distance and continued: "But if there is a chance, we can get a few pieces of these gems for self-defense and use them for self-defense. A trap should be fine too."

"Anything is better than nothing, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get these gems? After all, it is very likely that these gems will be taken away by Miskatonic University. Of course, we can ask Yin Luyang to ask for a few pieces for us." Zhang Jingxu nodded. said.

   At this moment, Liu Xing saw a few planes suddenly appear in the distance, flying straight towards the position of his group!

  The visitor is not good?

Still the same sentence, as a small country that has become so poor, there are very few planes that can be used in the country, especially after a lot of chaos, there are even fewer planes that can take off, and These planes have now been controlled by the American soldier who just entered the field, so the planes that appear in the distance now are likely to belong to those mercenaries, and of course they may come from other forces.

   However, from the point of view of probability, Liu Xing felt that at least half of these planes came to trouble his group.

   As a result, before Liu Xing could speak, those planes suddenly exploded!

   Looking at a few fireballs in the distance, Liu Xing didn't know what to say for a while, and still couldn't understand what was going on?

   What is this doing?

   At this time, Zhang Jingxu and others also noticed the falling fireball. Their expressions were exactly the same as Liu Xing's - puzzled.

   "What is this? An airplane?" Yoon En said uncertainly.

Liu Xing nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, what I just saw is the plane, but I haven't had time to remind you, these planes exploded directly on the spot, there is no warning, it seems that these should be these A time bomb was installed inside the plane and detonated at the same time; from such a bizarre operation, I can only think of the robbers this morning, but I still don't understand what they were trying to do because It's kind of abstract."

"I think this may be a tactic of exhaustion. We will make explosions around our camp if we have nothing to do, so that we will be exhausted, and finally find a chance to have a real bombing attack, but one thing to say, although we are prepared. Some light machine guns, but these light machine guns are quite troublesome to use against aircraft, because the effective range of light machine guns to the air is not far, so if these aircraft do not play dive bombing, it is very difficult for us to shoot them down."

   At this time, the camp also found those planes that had turned into fireballs. Although these planes had already been played, Norton sounded the air defense alarm to be on the safe side and asked everyone to return to the camp as soon as possible.

When Feng Liu Xing and the others returned to the camp, they saw Norton standing on a platform with a serious face, "Students, please note that the current situation has exceeded our previous evaluation, and it seems that some armed forces have been eyeing it. We, the two explosions that happened today, if nothing else, are warnings and provocations to us; although we are also equipped with a lot of weapons, in the final analysis, they are light weapons such as pistols, and fellow students, you Although they all use guns, they should never have experienced a real large-scale gun battle, so if there is a real fight, it will be very difficult for you to survive from those militants."

"So to be on the safe side, we have decided to temporarily withdraw from here and head to the airport for stationing. Of course, we will also find a way to temporarily close the entrance hole of the ruins, and make plans after we have cracked the password; if some students feel that staying at the airport is relatively If you waste your time, you can apply to leave the expedition and return to the school to continue your college life, and this will not have any impact on your files, and we will also give the credits that should be given. After all, your departure is not yours. Of course the students who stay can get more benefits.”

"As for the friends who took the special entrance exam, if you don't have any opinions, you can continue to stay. If you don't want to, it's fine. You still have two opportunities to choose whether to take the exam." Elizabeth suddenly said: "But you are willing to If you stay, you will get a chance to enter the secret library."

   Liu Xing raised his brows. He didn't expect Elizabeth to offer such a price.

At Miskatonic University, there are more libraries than majors, because each major will have at least two libraries, one that is fully open to the public, and the other that requires access to specialized A semi-public library that can only be accessed with a pass. . . When it comes to majors such as mysticism and archaeology, there will also be a secret library. This kind of library can only be entered by those who have obtained the relevant approval, and each approval is only valid once on the day.

   To put it simply, these secret libraries contain almost all the magic books in the Cthulhu mythology. Of course, most of them are only manuscripts or other language versions, but this is enough for players.

More importantly, most of the leaders of these secret libraries are real great magicians. Players can get a lot of benefits as long as they have a good relationship with them, so many players who enter the Cthulhu area will choose to stay in Miss. The reason why Katonic University conducted the mod is to brush the favorability of these great magicians.

   Therefore, Liu Xing and other players all chose to stay. As for the ordinary students, they left one third. After all, most of them still cherish their lives.

  After returning to the airport, the expedition team after the downsizing was arranged to rest in the VIP room of the terminal building, but this is called a VIP room, but it is actually like that. After all, you really can’t expect anything from the land of the sea.

   I don’t know if it was a deliberate arrangement in the game hall of the Cthulhu running group. Players such as Liu Xing were assigned to rest in several rooms in the row, so Ricky and Zakalev came over naturally.

  Because only Liu Xing and others had entered the ruins before, both Ricky were very curious about the situation inside the ruins, so Li Hanxing gave a brief introduction.

"It seems that the ruins of this ancient civilization are a lost city. If there is no accident, there should be some organs that can be activated. We have to be careful when we go in." Ricky said seriously: "I The team found an underwater ruin when they were in Hawaii before. This ruin was originally located on the sea surface. It may have been submerged by the sea due to the address activity, but even so, some of the mechanisms inside can still be triggered normally, and the effect is also There was no discount, so we almost explained it in there."

When Ricky said this, it also evoked Zakharenv's memory, "Yeah, I have encountered a similar situation before, when an activated mechanism sent a rain of arrows, but fortunately, the arrows of those bows and arrows were already The rust got dull, or I'd have been a dead hedgehog at the time."

   Hearing this, Liu Xing realized that his group did not seem to have experienced a complete underground ruins.

"But the biggest problem now is that we can't make judgments in the ruins. This is bad news for us, because we are not professionals. If we can't make judgments freely, then we may miss a lot of clues." Karenfu sighed and said: "And as long as the traps in these ruins are in a normal state, they are really hard to guard against, so we have to be careful about the surrounding situation in the ruins, so as not to accidentally get it. People are gone."

   Liu Xing recalled some of the adventure movies he had watched, and found that if the organs in it were faced by himself, in all likelihood, his life would be handed over. . . As for the remaining eleven or two, one must end up injured.

  So when he officially entered the ruins later, Liu Xing felt that he still had to follow the big team honestly and must not run around.

   But having said that, Sirius said that this ancient civilization was a biological trap prepared. In addition to immobile plants, there were also many small animals that were alive and kicking, which would be hard to guard against.
