Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2363 Escape from the ancient battlefield?

Looking at Yue Shao who looked confident, Liu Xing and others all showed an expression of "You seem to be kidding me", because before entering this martial arts module, almost all players had read about the ancient battlefield. Introduction, after all, the Cthulhu Run Game Hall promotes it as a 5A-level attraction for this martial arts module, and it is also the one with the most comprehensive known information among all special locations.

Moreover, in that war chess game, many chess pieces mentioned the existence of the ancient battlefield and provided a lot of supplementary information for the ancient battlefield. Therefore, before the official start of this martial arts module, players in the forum had already mentioned the ancient battlefield. The battlefield is labeled as "give it a try and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle", but this is a place where you can have the opportunity to change your life against the odds, and the admission ticket is really your life.

 So unless it is absolutely necessary, players should not forget about going to the ancient battlefield.

"Lao Yue, we can easily capture the city of this ancient battlefield, and we don't need to worry about offending a certain prince. But the problem is that although this ancient battlefield cannot be said to be gone without return, it will still be a narrow escape. So we have hundreds of players running to the ancient battlefield, and it’s already pretty good if fifty of us reach the city in the end.”

Shi Zixuan shook his head and said: "And even if we complete the first step of establishing our own power in that city, then monster siege will be inevitable later, but our enemies will change from the soldiers of a certain prince to the ancient battlefield. Those weird things in there! If it’s the former, then we at least know how to deal with it and have the ability to deal with it. But if it’s the latter, I remember that no NPC has come up with an effective way to deal with it. So we have to start all over again, and by then it will be good if only twenty of the fifty people are left."

"Yes, the ancient battlefield obviously took a weird route, so we can't use common sense to speculate on everything, so the chance of overturning is very high! And if I guessed correctly, the abandoned city should also be located in the ancient battlefield. Is it the center of the battlefield? Therefore, it should be the place with the strongest Yin Qi and the place with the most monsters, so it is not a good choice for us to build our own forces there, unless we are sure that we can survive in such a ghost place. " Yang De spoke in agreement.

Yue Shao also knew that Master Zixuan and others would say this, so he had already prepared his words, "You may not know something, but this abandoned city is also quite interesting. It has some similarities with the setting of Yueshan City. Place! You all know that Yueshan City is a city blessed by the moon god, so it can be in an absolutely neutral position in most situations. Even if the new Dragon Emperor changes the world, he will not do anything to Yueshan City; and that abandoned The city is also blessed by a certain god, but this **** is relatively unpopular, and the blessing of the city is not obvious. It can almost be said that it is governed by inaction, so I only found it in some ancient books of the Yue family. Relevant content.”

"If there is no problem with the content of the ancient books, the authority controlled by this **** is very interesting. In short, he is the **** in charge of the fog! So we will just call it the fog **** here. This is also the perennial rule of the ancient battlefield. The reason why they are all shrouded in fog is that only when the sun rises to its highest point at noon can the ancient battlefield be guaranteed not to be shrouded in fog. However, this can only last for about an hour; then the question arises again, how could such a place appear? As for the **** who is in charge of the fog, it is rare to see such an unpopular **** in any mythological system, right? So after the leader of the alliance raised the possibility of the existence of AI intelligent systems, I understood all this."

"The name of the abandoned city has been erased, so let's temporarily call it Fog City here. This Fog City may only have fog for a few days throughout the year. This seems quite normal. After all, there are some There are many more foggy days in the city than in Fog City! But as long as there is fog in Fog City, the whole city will be no different from the heaven. In short, the whole city will look like a fairy; but after the fog, People may see some strange things. There are not only creatures here, but also some strange buildings and objects! So what do you think of now? Yes, this is a bit like a mirage."

"So at the beginning, I thought there was a World of Warcraft-level mirage near the foggy city, and it was mistaken for a so-called **** by the nearby NPC! Because there is no large body of water near the ancient battlefield, so this Mirage alone lacks the ability to move, and at the same time, it cannot wake up a few times throughout the year. After all, whether it is Warcraft or us players, if we want to use skills, we have to consume MP, and MP is roughly equivalent to the energy bar in other games; but I Now we have discovered that this may be the same as mimicking plants. Mist God may also be an entertainment facility? It is AR augmented reality technology in the real world, which is similar to the technology used in the "Yu-Gi-Oh!" animation."

"Huh? You mean that the strange things in the ancient battlefield are just projections? That's a bit wrong, because someone really fell down in the ancient battlefield forever. If those strange things were just projections, then there would be no such thing. After many people go in, they can't come back, right?" Yin En asked doubtfully.

"robot!"

Yue Shao said seriously: "According to our previous speculation, the technological level of the previous civilization should have reached the level of the first part of "Yu-Gi-Oh!", that is, it has the technology of holographic projection and realistic robots, and the emergence of fog It can also cover up some technical flaws! So those things that seem strange to NPCs may be everyday items that can be seen everywhere in the eyes of our players. For example, bicycles and cars are steel monsters in the eyes of NPCs; as for some people say that in the eyes of NPCs, We saw the figures of the deceased on the ancient battlefield, so we have reason to believe that this is a projection device with a recording function that records the appearance and habits of certain NPCs."

 “Well, that seems to make sense.”

Liu Xing touched his chin and said: "If this is the case, then Wushen might have been the AI ​​intelligent system of an escape room company back then, because in the real world I have also thought about whether to open an escape room company and The modules I experienced in the Cthulhu Run game lobby were moved out, but I quickly chose to give up. The reason is also very simple, that is, the escape room setting is really troublesome, and it is not possible to change the theme. All the previous efforts have been wasted, but more than half of the investment in the previous theme will be lost, right? So even if we can exchange points for cash, it won't be such a waste, right?"

"The ability of this fog **** is quite suitable for running an escape room company, because fog plus projection can create different scenes, and projection plus robot can match different types of NPCs, and more importantly, it is a game After it is over, the venue can be cleared and a new scene can be built in a short time. In this way, the efficiency of the stage turnover is too high; so after our players enter the ancient battlefield, it is possible to conduct a mod The module in the game, or the escape room in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, but this escape room may not be too authentic."

"Yes, if you use AI intelligent system plus projection technology and multi-functional robots, then this escape room NPC can be comparable to the NPCs in our Cthulhu Running Group game hall, because these NPCs can change their appearance and appearance at any time. Body shape, as long as enough information is collected, these NPCs can imitate the appearance of some players... To be honest, if there is an escape room of this level in the real world, then I still want to go in and play it. ."   Shi Zixuan looked at the map that Yue Shao brought and continued: "If the accuracy of this map is not too low, then the coverage of the ancient battlefield is approximately equal to a circle, and the radius may be as far as The distance from Xicheng to Boyang City is only about two days by horseback, so if we are dragged into this escape room by the God of Fog, it is actually not good news, because if we want to enter the city, we may have to spend a lot of money. A few days! More importantly, I have played escape rooms several times in the real world, so I think the pace of escape rooms is much faster than that of Cthulhu Run games, and even good escape rooms are scary. This aspect is also linked to each other.”

"Yes, because of the location of the escape room in the real world, the pace of the plot is indeed much faster. We may be able to spend a day or two in the module of the Cthulhu Run Game Hall. Collect information, but in the escape room, the time may be shortened to one or two hours, so after entering the ancient battlefield, we may face rounds of attacks and attacks. It is no wonder that those first-class masters are entering the ancient battlefield. I won’t be able to withstand it anymore, because the pressure of this kind of wheel battle is too great, and those robots are made of steel and can withstand beatings on a par with top-notch experts.”

Meng Fugui, who had been a listener, finally spoke at this time, "To sum up, if the ancient battlefield is really a super large escape room, and the Fog God is an out-of-control AI intelligent system, then we will be more... You shouldn’t go to the ancient battlefield to try to build your own force, because the God of Fog is likely to absorb and imitate the abilities of those martial arts masters! If the problem of mechanical aging is eliminated, then robots that imitate first-class masters can exert the abilities of super-first-class masters, and even if they are added Due to problems such as mechanical aging, I estimate that these robots must be at the level of second-rate masters! So we players will not kill people when we run over, but provide new materials to the God of Fog."

As soon as Meng Fugui finished speaking, Master Zixuan continued: "If the area of ​​the ancient battlefield is approximately equal to the area controlled by the God of Fog, then we have reason to believe that the ancient battlefield was actually an escape room theme park. God may be in charge of dozens or even hundreds of escape room scenes! So after entering the ancient battlefield, we may cross several different scenes, which means that we may have been chased by an alien in the last second. We are running around, and in the next second, several assassins wearing night clothes will appear to attack us, and there is even the possibility of turning around and getting lucky."

 The "Universiade" in Shi Zixuan's words is naturally the Universiade heavy-duty truck that comes with tickets to another world.

"Well, in this way, I can understand why NPCs think that the ancient battlefield is a very strange place, because they can't understand that they just took a few steps, and the scene in front of them changed drastically, and the enemies they faced There are also all kinds of strange things, and some enemies attack in ways that they can’t even imagine! So when we humans face these incomprehensible pictures, panic is definitely inevitable, and as long as you panic, you will be in the ancient battlefield. Getting deeper and deeper.”

Liu Xing concluded: "Even if we are mentally prepared, it will be difficult to clear the ancient battlefield, because there is a saying that plans cannot keep up with changes. We may be able to make a hundred different plans, and it is possible that in We encountered unplanned situations on the ancient battlefield! And if nothing unexpected happens, the core of the God of Fog must be in Fog City, so when we start to build our own forces in Fog City, we may attract all the nearby people. For robots, the minimum guarantee is more than a hundred second-rate masters, plus there may be double-digit first-rate masters, plus a super-first-rate master to suppress the formation, then we will not be able to fight at all."

"So if we want to build our own power, we definitely can't try our luck on the ancient battlefield, because the difficulty may be even more difficult than at the emperor's feet."

Looking at the serious Yue Shao, Liu Xing and others were all confused, because no one thought that Yue Shao would behave so shamelessly at this time, just like he had just asked everyone to discuss the possibility of establishing his own power in the ancient battlefield. It's not the same as him.

Facing the questioning looks of Liu Xing and others, Yue Shao said without changing his expression and his heart not beating: "The reason why I mentioned the ancient battlefield first is just to attract others, so that everyone can liven up the atmosphere first! So what follows is That’s the real topic—the empty city!”

Yue Shao pointed at a city near Far West City and said seriously: "I think this city is one of the designated cities left for players to build their own forces in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, and it is also the city closest to us. , so if we really want to build our own power, then the empty city is our best choice!"

“Empty city? Why haven’t I heard of this place?”

Yin En said with some confusion: "My character card says that I am a local who is born and raised. He is only more than a hundred kilometers away from this empty city, so logically speaking, even if he has never been to the empty city, he should have heard about it. About the empty city, right? But why do I have no impression at all?"

Liu Xing and others also nodded, because they had no information related to the empty city in their memories, and they did not even know that there was a city near the Far West City.
