Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 657 Bloody Wedding (Part 2)

   After all, no matter how good the reward is, it is not as important as your own life.

After making up his mind, Liu Xing decided to follow the fate. If he found the mysterious man L before the wedding, it would be great; if he couldn't find it, it wouldn't matter. what punishment.

   Looking at Liu Xing, who started to lose his mind again, Dior said seriously: "Chris, what are you thinking about? Is it because you didn't sleep well last night, so your current mental state is a bit wrong?"

Liu Xing came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "It's alright, I'm just thinking that there is definitely something wrong with that murder case. Nine times out of ten, it is Locke's co-defendant and the victim killed by the mysterious person L. After all, there will be It's such a coincidence that a murderer who is exactly the same as the defendant and even has a similar body shape suddenly appears?"

Dio shrugged and said: "After reading the dossier of this murder case, everyone will basically have the same idea as you, Chris, that Locke is in the same group as the defendant and the mysterious man L. Unfortunately, it is not now. There is no evidence to prove this, and it seems that the mysterious person L does not exist. The French police have not investigated any clues related to the mysterious person L, so so far this murder case has almost become It's a dead end."

Liu Xing sighed, although he said so, but from the current situation, the mysterious man L is not a murderer, and he is not even an accomplice, even the mysterious man L is a victim, otherwise the mysterious man L will not be Take revenge on Locke today.

  So, what is the origin of this mysterious person L?

   Liu Xing began to feel a headache again. . . To be precise, since the beginning of this mod, Liu Xing's brain pain has not been relieved.

   Sure enough, the Cthulhu run game is a teamwork game, and it is too troublesome to fight alone.

   Now, Liu Xing began to miss Yin En, Zhang Jingxu and Zhang Wenbing and others.

   "Okay, you shouldn't be able to think of a reason about that murder Chris for a while, so I'll tell you about other aspects of Locke now?" Dio took a sip of wine.

   Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "Of course you can, but what I'm more curious about now is that Locke's relatives and friends really don't know that he is a ghoul?"

Dio thought for a while, shook his head and said: "I really don't know this. After all, Chris, you should also know. Locke's family has been passed down for thousands of years, so there are about two hundred people who are still alive. Therefore, although my friend is a well-known detective in England, it is impossible to investigate all of Locke's clans at the same time, so my friend only investigated the closest relatives to Locke, and found that those people should not know Locke has turned into a ghoul."

"But among these relatives, my friend found out that Locke and his cousin Jennifer had some unspeakable relationship... Chris, you should also know very well that we in England, or most of Europe's upper echelons In order to ensure the purity of their family blood, nobles will choose intermarriage, although in modern times due to the continuous improvement of genetics, the situation of intermarriage has become less and less, but this 'tradition' is still preserved."

   Liu Xing looked at Dior with a dazed expression. He didn't expect Dior to suddenly drive at this time.

But having said that, this is indeed a good handle to deal with Locke. After all, Locke is also a public figure now, so if his illegitimate relationship with his cousin is made public, I am afraid that Locke can really only use "food for food". Ghoul" as his main occupation.

Therefore, Liu Xing touched his chin and said: "Dior, has any of your friends obtained any substantial evidence to prove that the things he has investigated are true and credible? Maybe we can let Locke come to a 'socialism' first. die'?"

Dio raised his brows, shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, my friend has not obtained any substantial evidence. After all, in Locke's current identity, it is difficult for my friend to follow Locke around the clock, especially Go to some very private places, so the reason why my friend was able to determine that Locke had an affair with his cousin was basically some important clues completed by reasoning."

At this moment, kp time stood up again and said: "Congratulations to the player for triggering a hidden task of this mod - the ulterior relationship, if the player can prove that there is some kind of ulterior motive between Locke and Jennifer important evidence of the relationship, then the player can choose to give this evidence to Jennifer or Locke's wife Rosa, and then the player will get a completely different reward... But Liu Xing, you don't have to expect too much from this hidden quest reward, because this hidden mission has absolutely nothing to do with the main plot of this mod.”

   Is there such an operation?

Liu Xing really didn't think that this kind of thing could become a hidden task, but although Liu Xing didn't expect much reward for completing this hidden task, Liu Xing was still very curious if he gave the evidence to Locke. What kind of reward will the wife Rosa get.

   As for what kind of reward he would get if he gave the evidence to Locke, Liu Xing felt that it was better not to try it casually. . .

   But having said that, since this hidden mission appeared at this time, Liu Xing felt that it was necessary for him to take a good look around the manor, and maybe he would be able to meet Locke and Jennifer who were having a tryst.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing said to Dior: "Dior, do we want to take a walk in the manor now, in case, after you expose Locke's true face later, if Locke can't help but break with us, we can also make it ahead of time. There is a proper escape route."

Facing Liu Xing's proposal, Dior said with a smile: "Actually, I'm ready to die with Locke, so when the time comes, Chris, you will be in the crowd, and if there is a riot, you can leave the manor with those guests. , I will definitely not reveal your existence, but we can indeed walk around the manor now, and the wedding will officially start in an hour anyway."

   Liu Xing sighed, got up and said: "Dior, are you sure you want to die with Locke?"

Dio nodded, took out a small cross from his arms and said: "This cross is a good thing I got from a magician named Gary when I was in the flower cemetery, just insert the tip of this cross into Locke. In the body, Locke will directly remove the disguise and become a ghoul."

  Gary?

Liu Xing frowned, pretending to be surprised and said: "The Gary you mentioned, Dior, should be the owner of the Eins Castle in Manchester. I heard that he seems to be a corpse eater, so how could he have this? This kind of thing, and why did he give this kind of thing to you?"

Dior laughed and said mysteriously: "Actually, I cheated this thing from Gary, because I had a very good relationship with Gary when I was at the Flower Cemetery. After all, I can speak in a place like the Flower Cemetery. Humans only have Gary, so Gary and I became good friends after going back and forth. One day Gary showed me this cross. To be precise, there are more than ten such crosses in Gary's hands, because these crosses are When Gary was traveling abroad a few years ago, he accidentally found it in an antique store in Eastern Europe, and heard that these crosses were made by the Inquisition in the Middle Ages to deal with mythical creatures that could become humans."

   When hearing the word "Inquisition", Liu Xing couldn't help but think of the darkest chapter in the Middle Ages - the witch hunt.

  In three centuries, more than 100,000 so-called witches were sentenced to death. In addition, many people were killed as werewolves, vampires and other supernatural creatures. All in all, it was a religious force in Europe.

   A massacre created for the purpose of "sweeping out dissidents".

However, in the world of the Cthulhu running group game, a large number of mythical creatures and magicians did appear in the witch hunt, and even the figures of the old rulers appeared in some modules. Therefore, the Inquisition will It makes sense to create such a cross that can force mythical creatures to reveal their true bodies. After all, many mythical creatures can incarnate as humans.

   But then again, Liu Xing heard of a very special parallel world in the Cthulhu Running Group game hall.

  The reason why this parallel world is very special is that the time point of most parallel worlds is either in modern times or around 1920, while the time point of that parallel world is in the Middle Ages.

Therefore, the mods in that parallel world are basically related to the witch hunt, so the mods in that parallel world are very difficult. After all, that era can really be called fighting with gods, and there are mythical creatures everywhere fighting against religions. The priests and paladins of the Inquisition fought passionately, and ordinary players would be affected by Chiyu if they were not careful, and then died on the spot.

   But this parallel world is not something that players can enter through normal means, so Liu Xing has only heard of such a parallel world, but he has never seen a player say that he has really entered this parallel world.

"Because Gary is a member of the corpse sect, Gary will use these crosses to play with them when he has nothing to do, and he has never really tested the function of these crosses. After all, the ghouls in the corpse sect The status is very high, and Gary has no chance to find ghouls to help him verify the authenticity of these crosses, so I told him that I can help him to test whether these crosses are true or false, so that Gary will not buy a bunch of fakes. I don't know yet, but Gary actually lent me these crosses temporarily, so I took the opportunity to exchange one of them." Dio said with a smile.

   Liu Xing raised his brows and said curiously: "So Dior, have you really tried these crosses?"

Dio shook his head and said, "How is that possible, although I have a good relationship with the ghouls in the flower cemetery, I am not familiar with them to that extent, so I can be sure that if I dared to find those ghouls at the time The ghouls test the function of the cross, then Chris, you can't see me now, so I finally told Gary that I confessed."

   Dior's voice just fell, and kp time suddenly said to Liu Xing: "Do you want to make an inspiration judgment now?"

   Inspiration judgment?

   Liu Xing frowned, knowing that at this time kp asked himself if he wanted to pass the inspiration judgment, which means that there is a problem in the story Dior just told.

   Therefore, Liu Xing decisively chose an inspiration judgment, although the inspiration value of "Chris" is not too high.

   Liu Xing, 16/50, successful.

  The moment the inspiration was judged successfully, Liu Xing involuntarily reached out and said, "Dior, can you show me this cross to take a look at?"

   At this moment, another sound of dice landing sounded.

   Liu Xing (persuasion), 49/70, successful.

   Liu Xing raised his brows. He didn't expect this to be a series of judgments. Fortunately, his luck was still good this time.

  Because Liu Xing's persuasion judgment was also successful, after I hesitated for a moment, Dior handed the cross to Liu Xing.

   The moment Liu Xing took over the cross, the specific information of the cross appeared in Liu Xing's mind.

   Forced teleportation cross (one-way / ghoul only), when the tip of the cross is inserted into the ghoul's body, the ghoul will be teleported directly to the designated location.

  PS: Players cannot use this item.

  ? ? ?

   Liu Xing frowned, the effect of this cross was completely different from what Gary told Dior.

etc.

   Liu Xing had a flash of inspiration and suddenly understood the ins and outs of this matter.

To put it simply, after Gary knew that Dio had made friends with the ghouls in the Flower Cemetery, he wanted to use Dio's hand to send a ghoul to Eins Castle, so that Gary could Use Isabella to control the ghoul, and in the end, Gary can die just by killing Dio.

   As for Dio's stealing, Gary should also know, but because Gary also knew that Dio did this to deal with Locke, Gary pretended not to know, anyway, it was him who benefited from the fisherman in the end.

   So if this is the case, then Liu Xing can be sure that in the first official mod, the ghoul that killed Gary should be Locke!

   Liu Xing, who realized this, could not help frowning, because Liu Xing found that everything he encountered in this mod had laid the groundwork for the mod that he would experience in the "future".

   So, if you can stop Dior from doing something to Locke this time, will the "future" change?

   No, are you changing the "past" in the "future", or changing the "future" in the "past", or changing the "past" in the "past"?

  PS: Thanks for the reward after the rain in autumn.
