Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 1750 Trouble

Liu Xing and others soon came to the board game shop, and Liu Xing also noticed that there were only posters and signs of "Martial Arts Continent" at the door of the board game shop, but the most important thing was that there were several people at the door. Holding a sign - Recycling chess pieces at a high price.

   It seems that this "Martial Arts Continent" is indeed very popular, and it has become so popular that there are two dealers.

After entering the board game store, the store manager took out a large box from under the counter, "This is the "Martial Arts Continent" you ordered, now you can scan the QR code above to enter your pre-order information, and after confirmation, you can Take them away."

  Liu Xing noticed that there was an electronic lock hanging on the big box. It seems that if you don't enter the pre-order information to unlock it according to the process, then don't even think about opening the box and taking out the pieces inside.

"By the way, be careful when you open the box later, because the "Martial Arts Continent" company has installed some real easter eggs in the box. If you don't open the box according to the normal process, these easter eggs will be triggered, so that those chess pieces will be triggered. It becomes colorful, so that no matter how precious these chess pieces are, they will not be recognized by the company and the players, and the value will be directly reduced to zero." The boss said with a smile.

   "Oh, it seems that this company is still very interested, even the Easter eggs are ready."

Yin En also laughed and said: "I remember that some banks, Liu Xing, like to place such remote-controlled trigger eggs in the safes that hold money, so as to ensure that the robbers can actively or passively trigger these safes when they rob them, so that The money in the safe is stained with special oil paint, so even if it is real money laundering, there is no way to wash the money. At that time, the robbers will take huge risks and work in vain. Colorful banknotes are difficult to get into the market.”

"Yes, so I also think that this company is really attentive, and it really does what it says. In this way, the number of chess pieces is almost fixed, and each person can only get ten boxes of cheap chess pieces. , if you want to get other chess pieces, you have to spend money to buy them from other people's hands; so it stands to reason that even the chess piece with the largest shipment, the future market price will exceed the original price, because there are only so many chess pieces, There will be someone in the general manager who doesn't have this piece, so the price will go up directly."

The boss glanced at his shop and said seriously: "I have already thought about it, I will open up a special area in the shop for "Martial Arts Continent", and add the service of consignment of chess pieces by the way, so that you can earn more!"

   "Uh, how do I feel that this company is ready to make money from the trading platform from the beginning."

Liu Xing couldn't help but said: "Look, the number of chess pieces is fixed, so this company can only make so much money in theory, and it's still a one-shot deal; but if this company stands up and opens a special transaction If you use a website to make money from handling fees, then you can make a lot of money after that? Why is this more and more like playing chess pieces?

"Perhaps, but the pieces in this "Martial Arts Continent" are also very well done. Whether it is the details or the colors, it can be said to be perfect, and so many pieces have their own characteristics, so you won't feel that this company has a A little bit of laziness, in short, even as a figure, it is worth the price; not to mention the playability of "Martial Arts Continent" is also very strong, and several modes have been announced so far, each with its own characteristics. The most important thing is After that, some new modes will be updated. If there is a need for new chessboards and some small accessories, players can also get them for free with the previous purchase information. Of course, some of them are irrelevant, but the extras that can make the chess pieces look better Accessories cost a little more.”

While talking, the shopkeeper pointed to the shelf next to him and said, "Here are some additional weapon accessories, because the chess pieces generally only carry one weapon, and occasionally some chess pieces will carry secondary weapons such as bows and crossbows on their backs. So you can buy these accessories if you want to use other weapons on your pawns, but the first version of the weapon accessories are all kind of common goods, and they look quite ordinary; but I heard that the second version of the weapon will be launched soon. Well, this version looks more distinctive, and it also feels like an exclusive weapon."

Liu Xing glanced at the shelf next to him and found that those extra weapons did look very ordinary, and they looked like they were used by common soldiers, and Liu Xing still remembered those chess pieces he saw in the real world. The weapons that come with it are more or less unique.

   At this time, Zhang Jingxu has completed the verification, so the electronic lock on the box will automatically fall off.

"Thank you for your patronage, but I would like to remind you a few words here, that is, it is best to open the box with me and register the chess pieces you get on the official website, because my shop has installed surveillance cameras according to the company's requirements, so It is guaranteed that the whole process from opening the box to registering the information of the pieces is well documented, so that if your pieces accidentally fall into the hands of others for some reason, these pieces will not be able to be traded, and they will not be available in the It is used in official events, so these pieces can only be kept at home by some people, and they are afraid to show it to the outside world! Because even the same pieces will have certain differences, so just use the ones provided by the company. If the APP scans, the corresponding information of this chess piece can be checked immediately.”

The shop owner said with a smile: "The reason why this "Martial Arts Continent" is so popular now is that it is not only fun and beautiful, but also very good value preservation, it can even be said that it is earned when you buy it, so there are many people who have ulterior motives. I started to make a small calculation, but the company has already thought of this, so it has made various preparations; if you go directly with these boxes, although our city of Arkham is usually very safe, especially when we are still The door of Miskatonic University, but there is no guarantee that some hard-headed guys will come to **** your chess pieces, and these chess pieces may be registered by him first."

   "Uh, haven't we already entered the pre-order information? So it stands to reason that these pieces are already bound to our information before we open the box?" Tian Qing asked a little puzzled.

The shop owner shook his head and said seriously: "It stands to reason that the company should be able to do this, but the problem is that in order to ensure that these chess pieces are completely randomly delivered to a certain player, they have already started live broadcasting the whole process. In the production process of the board game set, the most important part of the chess piece is very special. Simply put, an operation will be performed before the chess piece is put in. The conditions are the three numbers corresponding to the hour, minute and second of the current time, and then the It is the number of players currently watching the live broadcast, followed by the number contained in the ID of the most recent speaker, which may be the serial number corresponding to each letter, the number of strokes of the word, or a certain number."

"All in all, when these numbers are planned according to certain conditions, the resulting numbers will allow the corresponding pieces to be enclosed in the box. If there is no piece corresponding to the number, then the surrounding will be taken according to the principle of the largest and the smallest. The chess pieces correspond to the numbers, and after the boxes are sealed, they will be put into a mixing pool that can hold hundreds of boxes for mixing and mixing, and only one box will be released every minute; these are placed The boxes that come out will be put into the delivery office for final classification, because these boxes are ordered by the players through the designated authorized board game store, so the final packing will be carried out according to certain rules.”

"If the boxes in a box are all from the same board game store, then the boxes in this box can basically be said to be shipped together with the front and back feet, so there is still a certain probability to guess what pieces are inside, but if one time If the order sent to the company is not enough to fill a box, the chess pieces in the box may be different from the factory time by several hours, so it is difficult to guess what chess pieces are in it; but the most important thing is that currently No one knows where the company's production workshop is, but boxes ordered on the same day will also be delivered to board game stores around the world on the same day. It can be seen that in addition to doing good board games, this company, And it also has its own set of distribution chains.”

One thing to say, I heard that Liu Xing here has to admire the Cthulhu running group game hall. In order to round up the settings of these pieces, it really took a lot of effort to make a series of restrictions to ensure that players get the pieces. It will not exceed the limited amount, nor will it be taken away by other players through various methods.

"Okay, finally, let me remind you again, that is, there is already a rough price list for these chess pieces on the Internet, but it is certain that these prices are not high enough, because the company has only released 3% of the price. There are about ten chess pieces, so the market cannot yet determine the number of each chess piece, so it cannot confirm the specific price. In addition, the transaction volume during this period is also very small, and most of them are offline private transactions. Effective Naturally, there is no way to upload the data, so even though the price of these chess pieces is higher than the original price, it will definitely rise a lot after a month, so you better not sell chess pieces during this time."

The shop owner suddenly changed his tone and said with a smile: "But if you are willing to sell me the chess pieces, then I am willing to offer a higher price to buy your chess pieces. The specific premium will be determined according to the level of the chess pieces, but at least It will be 30% higher than the current market price! If it is a legendary advanced chess piece, then I can give it... Well, the current market price does not include this advanced chess piece, because now everyone knows this advanced chess piece Chess pieces can be sold for sky-high prices in the future, unless the company of "Martial Arts Continent" suddenly runs away, but no one can think of a reason for him to run away."

   Liu Xing felt that the shopkeeper was setting up an incredible flag, because if the Cthulhu Running Group game hall really wanted to run away, he would definitely not bring back his head.

Although the owner enthusiastically retained Liu Xing and others to open the box in the store, Liu Xing and others still chose to go home to open the box, because the information of these pieces is too important, so Liu Xing found out after recalling for a while This morning, "Liu Xing" and others decided to go back to the villa to open the box after they got the box, so as to avoid some players with outstanding computer skills from hacking to control the cameras in these board game stores, and then through these cameras See information about certain pieces.

   After all, for Liu Xing and other players, the pieces themselves have nothing to say, and it can even be said that it doesn’t matter whether they have or not, but the introduction card that comes with the pieces must be there. Of course, after reading it, it doesn’t matter.

   After saying goodbye to the owner, Liu Xing and others drove directly back to the villa they just bought, or the villa group! Although Liu Xing felt a lot of eyes staring at his group when he first left the board game shop, but these people did not move further, after all, this is the door of Miskatonic University!

   Nobody dares to do anything at Miskatonic unless he is not human.

When Liu Xing returned to his villa, he found that the renovation work had been completed. In short, a wall more than two meters high was built to surround the villas purchased by his group. At the same time, the newly opened The gates of the villa are also guarded by the subordinates brought by Sawada Yayin. In short, this villa group has become the territory of Liu Xing and others, and strangers should not approach it.

But what makes Liu Xing feel a little speechless is that because he, or "Liu Xing" doesn't know why, he promised everyone to transform the first floor of his villa into a multi-functional banquet hall, in short, whether it is a party or a meeting. It is carried out in my own villa, so there is not much else on the first floor of my own villa, just enough tables, chairs and benches! Because all the NPCs who have a good relationship with their group have come.

   Including Matsui Yui and his wife!

   When seeing Matsui Yui and Dogo Iger, Liu Xing was a little confused, because shouldn't they continue to prepare their big plan in the island country? Could it be because of the Night Demon that he had to run over to avoid the limelight?

As a result, after recalling for a while, Liu Xing discovered that Matsui Yui had discovered that other deep diver tribes were preparing to do something to her. As for how she knew it, she didn't say much. It seemed that there should be some deep diver tribes. Internal response.

  So after discussing with his father, Yui Matsui decided to temporarily shelve the planned plan, and everyone went to travel and vacation around the world in parts, which can be regarded as the last relaxation before starting.

  So, Matsui Yui and his wife came here to play, firstly because Sawada Yone and others were also coming, and secondly because they planned to go to Miskatonic University.
