Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 503 Entering the Mist

   Liu Xing doesn't want to talk about Lendl yet.

   "This time we are really in trouble. After all, these trees have grown wildly, so the animals on Jekyll Island must have grown a lot." Liu Xing said.

Zhang Jingxu nodded and said in agreement: "Yes, since Jekyll Island is a research base for the ancients, some data should have been calculated at the beginning, so the data of these trees and the data of animals match each other, After all, the best way for those small animals to kill large beasts is to attack them."

   This is very scientific.

"In this way, we will soon meet a group of rabbits that are bigger than pigs. It feels exciting to think about it, but again, we can really win these animals, they are really monsters. something?" Ishikawa Ling said helplessly.

To be honest, Liu Xing's thinking is the same as Ishikawa Ling. Those animals on Jekyll Island can now be described as monsters. If people from the outside world see it, then in a few days, they will be in major social media. On the platform, there will be news that England has carried out mysterious research on Jekyll Island, and animals have grown wildly several times.

   Of course, it is also possible to throw the pot on the nuclear explosion. After all, as long as the animals mutate these days, there will always be people who think that this is because of the nuclear explosion.

At this time, MiG suddenly said: "Actually, we don't need to worry too much about the animals on Jekyll Island. Although we have not conducted research on the animals on Jekyll Island, according to the ancient Sir Sirius, Jekyll The animals on the island all exist to create a kind of biological weapon, so I think the ancients did not set too high intelligence for the monsters on Jekyll Island, after all, the lessons of Shoggoth are still there. Let it go."

Miguel's remarks made everyone stunned, because Miguel was very right, the animals on Jekyll Island should not have high intelligence, and maybe even the animals on Jekyll Island have no intelligence, just follow the predetermined program. , This is of course because of the Shoggoth rebellion. The ancients will definitely worry that this newly created biological weapon will stand up to their own rule like Shoggoth, and from the strength and repair of these animals on Jekyll Island. Comparing the strengths of Gus, it is not difficult to see that the ancients were really frightened by Shoggoth, and they no longer dared to let the animals on Jekyll Island gain stronger strength.

   Of course, it is not difficult to see from here the expectations of the ancients for synthetic beasts - a multi-functional war weapon that can be mass-produced.

   So since it is a "mass production machine", there is no need to design too high intelligence, as long as you can fight.

   Thinking of this, Liu Xing suddenly felt that the animals on Jekyll Island were not too difficult to deal with.

  The reason why humans can stand out from animals is that they have learned to use their brains instead of relying on brute force blindly.

"MiG, you are right, in fact, I carefully observed those animals during that short expedition yesterday, and I found that the intelligence level of those animals is indeed not high, because they are completely relying on instinct, or according to The ancients set them to perform various actions at the beginning, among which I guess there must be this one - attack the enemy closest to you, because I saw a goat chasing a wild boar, because it passed by a goat. beside the rabbit, so the goat turned to attack the rabbit." Booker said seriously.

Zhang Wenbing nodded and said, "If that's the case, then it's very easy for us to deal with these animals on Jekyll Island. We just need to set up some traps. It just so happens that you should be able to provide me with some traps, Mr. Booker. Guiding advice."

Booker smiled and said seriously: "Of course, although I was a military doctor when I was in the army, I also came into contact with a lot of knowledge about traps. After all, our enemies must be better than weapons and equipment. It's not up to us, so they can only rely on these traps to cause us trouble."

  So, after saying that, Booker went to the utility room to find those trap materials that he might use.

"Okay, our first goal now is to hunt down a few small animals, after all, our food is almost bottomed out; then we will naturally go to look for the beast grass, and then go to the research facilities of the ancients, because with our In terms of current strength, there is no way to push the stranded yacht back into the water, and we have lost contact with the outside world, so if we want to leave alive now, we have to find the ancient one. I believe it should have a way to take us away." Zhang Wenbing said with a sigh.

Liu Xing nodded and said: "Actually, we can now also confirm that the research facilities left by the ancient family are near the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain, or in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain. The reason is very simple, the reason why Jekyll Island is It has become what it is now because of those lightning strikes on the Myriad Beasts Mountain."

"However, it's not easy to go to Ten Thousand Beast Mountain. After all, Ten Thousand Beast Mountain is located in the center of Jekyll Island. If we want to go in, we have to cross at least two or three terrains. If there is no retreat of animal grass, we will definitely encounter various Animals are attacked, and there may be more and more attacks, so our focus is to find the animal repellent grass." Zhang Wenbing sighed.

   But Liu Xing had an ominous premonition when he thought of the dense fog that Lendl said.

   It seems that this animal grass is not easy to take.

   Liu Xing sighed, frowned and said: "But then again, since there has been a huge change on Jekyll Island, it may not be as easy for us to get the Retreat Grass, so..."

   Liu Xing did not finish his words, leaving Zhang Jingxu and others time to think freely.

  The living room was suddenly silent.

   After a while, Booker returned to the hall with a big bag in his hand, "Uh, what happened to you? Did you get silenced by some mysterious force during the time I left the hall?"

   Liu Xing shrugged and said his thoughts.

"It turns out that there is such a possibility, but I don't think this is bad news for us. After all, before I came to Jekyll Island, I had already prepared to face a corpse-eating sect. The enemy, so now it's just a group of mutant animals with developed limbs and a simple mind, I don't think there is anything to worry about." Booker said seriously.

  Although Liu Xing does not agree with Booker's words as a "player", as a "person", Liu Xing still has to express his support.

So Liu Xing said with a smile: "Booker is right, we just need to deal with a group of mutant animals, these mutant animals have no trouble with corpse teaching, so everyone should not worry too much, as long as we are careful, There should be no surprises, after all, we suppress the intelligence of those mutant animals."

   Zhang Jingxu and others nodded, and the atmosphere finally became lively.

  So, after Liu Xing and others finished eating, they came to the ground with all kinds of equipment that could be used.

Of course, MiG stayed in the underground camp because of the inconvenience of movement, but MiG was not idle. Although the mechanical parts on his body were all aging, some basic transmission parts could still function, so the power of MiG was still It's pretty good, so Booker asked Mig to transform the scrapped guns in the utility room into some cold weapons.

   For example, the samurai sword specially ordered by Ishikawa Ling, and the hand crossbow ordered by Booker.

   came to the ground, because there are only three old-fashioned shotguns that can be used, so Liu Xing and Ishikawa Ling are holding machetes to open the way in front.

   Originally, Liu Xing planned to get an old-fashioned shotgun, but he didn’t expect Zhang Wenbing to be a veteran. Although he only served in the army for two years after he was admitted to university, Zhang Wenbing’s marksmanship was quite good.

As for the action route of Liu Xing and others this time, it was along the coastline. Although Liu Xing and his party were worried about the gerbils lurking in the beach before, but now because the gerbils are too "expanded", the sand is already Can't hide these gerbils.

   Therefore, gerbils became the best prey in the eyes of Liu Xing and his group, because it was easy to find them, and as long as they kept a good distance, these gerbils would not pose too much threat to their group.

   On top of that, according to Booker, the gerbil still tastes pretty good, albeit a little less than desirable.

  So, everyone began to look for traces of gerbils on the beach.

   Soon, Liu Xing and others found a gerbil. Although the gerbil was still in the sand, the raised dunes were too obvious.

   "Leave it to me, and let you see how good I was when I was known as a sharpshooter." Zhang Wenbing said confidently.

   Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "No problem, Brother Zhang, you will fire the first shot, but Zhang Jingxu and Booker, you must remember to help Brother Zhang with the rifle."

   Zhang Wenbing snorted in disapproval, then raised his gun to aim, and pulled the trigger three seconds later.

   Accompanied by the sound of the dice popping out of the chamber, there was a sound of the dice falling to the ground.

The    bullet hit the dune exactly, and a gerbil with a broken tail sprang out of the dune.

   "Uh, I don't seem to be able to distinguish the head and tail of this gerbil..." Zhang Wenbing said embarrassedly.

   But at this time, the old-fashioned shotguns in the hands of Booker and Zhang Jingxu also began to show their power, and the gerbil was directly shot in the head.

   Of course, there was another shot that hit the sand next to the gerbil.

   Zhang Jingxu scratched his head and said with a smile: "As expected, professionals are more powerful, Booker, you are more accurate than me."

  Booker shrugged and said, "No no no, Zhang Jingxu, you are just a little unfamiliar with old-fashioned shotguns, and these old-fashioned shotguns are a few years old, so it's normal for them to be inaccurate."

   After a wave of business blows, Liu Xing and others came to the gerbil.

   As Liu Xing and others speculated before, the gerbil, which was supposed to be the size of a palm, has now become almost the size of a small watermelon.

   But this is also a good thing, after all, this is all meat.

  Just like that, Liu Xing and others killed six gerbils on this beach, and then they saw a fog.

  The fog on Jekyll Island looked similar to the fog created by the deep diver on the coastline of England before, as if there was a white screen in the middle, so that Liu Xing and his party could not see the situation in the fog at all.

   "It seems that the Retreat Grass should be here." Liu Xing said seriously.

   Zhang Jingxu and others nodded, but they all started to look embarrassed.

  Although everyone knows that the Beast Grass is in this fog, but no one knows what else is there in this fog except the Beast Grass.

   Therefore, Liu Xing and his party don't know whether they should enter this fog to find out.

   "What should we do? Do we want to enter this fog? But I don't think this fog exists specifically to tell us that there are thorns here." Zhang Jingxu said worriedly.

Liu Xing thought for a while, nodded and said: "We have to go in, because if there is no animal retreat, we must have no way to get close to the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain and enter the research facility left by the ancients, so even if there is danger in this fog, We must go in and find out!"

   "So, are we arranging for one person to go first to explore the way? Or go in together?" Ishikawa Ling said.

  The crowd fell silent again. . .

   Obviously, if there is danger in the fog, if you go in alone, the risk factor is very high, but if everyone goes in, it may be destroyed.

   After a while, Liu Xing made up his mind and said: "Well, I'll go into the fog alone to have a look. If there is any danger, I believe Sirius can help me resolve it."

   Of course, Liu Xing didn't expect Sirius to help him at this time, so now Liu Xing's biggest reliance is still the identity he obtained from the ancient fortress underground in Fisherman's Village.

   Now he is considered a "member" of the ancients.

   Seeing that Liu Xing volunteered, the others were not able to say anything, so in the end it was decided that Liu Xing would enter the fog.

   But to be on the safe side, Liu Xing was tied with a hemp rope, and it was agreed that when Liu Xing entered the fog for more than ten minutes and did not come out, Zhang Jingxu and others would pull Liu Xing out. . . If you can still pull it out.

  After getting ready, Liu Xing took the old-fashioned shotgun in Zhang Jingxu's hand, took a deep breath, and walked directly into the mist.

   But at this time, Liu Xing did not know that the moment he walked into the fog, the hemp rope tied around his waist was blocked from the fog!

  In the mist.

   Liu Xing looked at the huge ancient statue in front of him and was speechless for a while.

  PS: To celebrate the motherland's birthday tomorrow, stop for one more day.
