Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 778 New God

At this time, Sawada Miyin took Yin En over and said, "I don't know what happened recently. There have been many imitators in all parts of the island country. Those guys imitate the famous unsolved cases of various countries to commit crimes, and I don't know who they are. What do you think...Is there really something behind them?"

Liu Xing shook his head and said seriously: "I don't think there is any behind-the-scenes driving force behind all this, but the spontaneous behavior of those imitators, because I just checked the imitators you mentioned, Miss Zetian, and they basically They are all otakus, and many of the worst cases in the island country in recent years were committed by these otakus, and most of them are over forty years old, what does this make you think?"

"The bubble crisis in the island country?" At this time, Ding Kun came over and said: "In the island country, because the theory of 'land will not depreciate' was very popular, so the real estate and other industries were very prosperous, but at that time, the island country businessmen bought the land. Doing development is like holding a stock and waiting for it to appreciate and then resell it. Therefore, the land value in Tokyo at that time was claimed to be able to buy the entire land of the American lighthouse country, and the bank also admitted that these inflated land were used as collateral to continuously release a lot of loans. This led to the rapid economic development of the island country, but it turned out to be a false prosperity like a bubble, and the island country's economy without industrial support was a castle in the air, so the island country experienced an economic crisis around 1990, and a large number of speculators were destroyed.

Ding Kun paused and said in a low voice: "These are all told to me by an island friend I met a few years ago. He said that he had a perfect childhood and a nightmare high school life, because After the economic crisis, his best friend at school went bankrupt because his father's investment failed, and the whole family committed suicide by jumping off the building, and he himself was forced to drop out of school to work."

Liu Xing nodded and continued: "Yes, I saw a saying on the Internet before that the elderly otaku in the island country are basically the product of the island country's bubble crisis, because at that time The islanders have a lot of money in their hands, so they are extra tolerant to their children, and the monthly pocket money is higher than the salary of ordinary white-collar workers, so that group of wealthy otaku started them. It is a pity that the emergence of the economic crisis makes it impossible for them to live carefree forever, especially in recent years, the parents who sheltered them from the wind and rain have died one after another, and these otaku have to find a way to support themselves. ."

"Yes, I often see some otakus in their 40s and 50s staying at home and waiting to die on the Internet, while their parents in their 60s and 70s have to work from morning to night to earn money." Sawada Yain nodded and said.

Liu Xing shrugged and said, "So in recent years, those otakus who have lost their source of income have had to enter the society to make a living, but they themselves do not have any skills, and they have been derailed from society for decades, so these otakus have It is difficult for the otaku to integrate into the current society, so these otakus will inevitably have some anti-social tendencies, and finally they will choose to commit crimes by extreme means."

Zhang Wenbing sighed and said, "Liu Xing, you are right, I had a chat with the manager of an island country when I was working in the company, and he mentioned that his son has not left the house for more than 20 years. , has not been in contact with anyone other than his parents, and in recent years his son's personality has become more and more volatile, so he is very worried that his son will endanger social security after his death."

"This is the broken generation of the island country." Yin En said with a sigh: "But then again, I remember that the high school girls in the island country also flourished in the period of the island country's economic crisis, because from frugality to luxury, from It is difficult to be extravagant and frugal. Those high school girls who are accustomed to extravagance suddenly lose the pocket money given by their parents, and finally can only maintain their consumption level through abnormal means. As a result, this has become a traditional feature of the island country. "

   "So what do you think about this?" Sawada Yain said with a smile.

   Yin En, who had a strong desire to survive, immediately shook his head and said, "No, I don't want to."

   Liu Xing and others couldn't help booing, wanting to let Sawada Yayin clean up Yin En well.

   Anyway, a dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist.

After playing around for a while, Liu Xing concluded: "Compared to coming up with a perfect crime process, it is much more convenient to imitate the unsolved cases created by predecessors, so this is the main reason why imitators are now prevalent. , but judging from the serial cola poisoning incident in Osaka Castle, it is very likely that this imitator is not an ordinary person, so I suspect that this serial cola poisoning incident is likely to be done by a public faction. Create chaos in Osaka Castle."

Just when Liu Xing had just finished speaking, kp Yaowu suddenly said: "Congratulations to player Liu Xing for triggering the special task of the Battle of Gongwu - the rise of new gods, this special task will start the task chain after the battle of Gongwu officially starts, Players who complete this special mission will receive special rewards!"

  ? ? ?

   Liu Xing frowned and found that this special mission is not easy, because the name of this special mission - the rise of new gods is fascinating.

   Liu Xing glanced at Zhang Jingxu and others, and found that they should have also been notified by kp Yaowu.

   So, Liu Xing and the others chatted for a while with a tacit understanding, and then went back to their rooms to rest with their excuses.

   Then, Liu Xing and others, who gathered again, opened the second secret room time.

   "Liu Xing, you are really amazing. You started the special task of the Battle of Gongwu so soon, and this special task seems to be very powerful." Zhang Jingxu said with a smile.

Liu Xing touched the back of his head, and said with some headache: "But this task is not easy, because I think this task is very similar to the situation that Yin En and I encountered in Ziwu City, the so-called new god's strength should at least be Above Dagon, below the Old Ones."

   Before that, Liu Xing told Yin En and others about everything he and Yin En had experienced in Ziwu City, so Yin En and others also knew how terrifying Bamboo in the state of evil spirits was.

   But the current Taketori is evolving towards Harmony God. . .

   "By the way, have you seen an American drama? It's the "Gods of the Lighthouse Country"." Yin En said suddenly: "I suspect that the inspiration for this special mission should have come from that American drama."

   Liu Xing patted his thigh, nodded and said: "Yes, it seems that this special mission is really related to "Gods of the Lighthouse Country"."

To put it simply, the plot of "Gods of the Lighthouse Country" is that with the development of the times, some relatively unpopular ancient gods are constantly weakened due to the lack of human belief, while some modern products have become new after being respected by human beings. The gods, such as the **** of the Internet, the **** of mobile phones and so on.

   Obviously, the so-called new **** mentioned in this special mission is likely to be an existence like the **** of the Internet.

Ding Kun touched his chin and said, "In this way, the rise of the new gods this time is likely not to refer to a single god, but to a group of gods, such as the **** of otaku, the **** of the second dimension, God of idols or something?"

   "That's right." Liu Xing and others said in unison.

Liu Xing thought about it for a while, and said seriously: "If there is no accident, the recent series of imitation crimes should be behind this group of new gods, and these new gods should also belong to the chaotic camp, otherwise they will not let them. Their fanatics are madly committing crimes."

"In that case, these new gods will be the biggest spoilers in the battle of Gongwu, because they shouldn't cooperate with the public faction and the Wu faction. After all, they are all gods." Zhang Wenbing said with emotion, " So, can we really kill gods?"

Ding Kun shrugged and said with a smile: "I don't think we should confront these new gods head-on, because most of these new gods have not yet condensed their godheads, they can only be regarded as demigods, so I think this special The specific requirements of the mission may be for us to prevent or assist these new gods to ascend."

   "So should we stand on the side of the new god?" Liu Xing asked.

   Yun En answered without hesitation: "Of course we can't stand on the side of these new gods, because we are partners of justice."

   Liu Xing rolled his eyes at Yin En, knowing that Yin En was trying to play tricks.

   But having said that, Liu Xing and others finally decided to stand on the opposite side of the new gods, because Liu Xing and others knew very well that those new gods were definitely not "kinder" to humans than Cthulhu.

   The most important thing is that if these new gods are also projected into the real world by the Cthulhu running group game hall, then this may be a catastrophe.

   Therefore, Liu Xing and his party felt that they still had to find a way to prevent the rise of these new gods.

   After discussing the issue of the new god, Liu Xing and others brought the topic to Yin En again.

   "Yin En, what did Miss Zetian call you aside to chat just now?" Zhang Jingxu asked curiously.

  Yin En sighed and said with some melancholy: "Miss Zetian, she set a flag for me - we will get married after the battle of Gongwu is over."

   This is indeed a classic flag.

   "Then did you agree?" Zhang Wenbing stood up and asked.

  Yin En nodded and said with a wry smile: "Is there any reason for me to choose to refuse now? If I dare to refuse, I am afraid I will change to the character card of Ishikawa Ling and play with you."

   Liu Xing and others nodded silently, secretly thinking that Yin En had paid a lot for this team.

   After the time in the secret room was over, Liu Xing and others really went back to their rooms to rest.

   As a result, Liu Xing just lay down for a while when he heard that the window in his room seemed to be pushed open.

   "Who is it?!" Liu Xing subconsciously took out the pistol under the pillow and aimed it in the direction of the window.

   Then, Liu Xing saw an unexpected visitor - the king in yellow.

   "Are you using this body now? I just said that I couldn't feel your breath on Watanabe Meteor during this time." The King in Yellow said with a smile.

Liu Xing immediately put away the pistol and said respectfully: "My lord, you are right, I plan to use this body for activities recently, just because this body has no connection with you, my lord, so I am also How do I want to contact you, my lord?"

  The king in yellow nodded with satisfaction and said, "I noticed your soul fluctuations when you appeared in the island country, so I came to you to do something deliberately right now."

   Liu Xing raised his brows, knowing that what the king in yellow needs to do by himself is likely to be related to those new gods.

   "I would like to hear the details." Liu Xing lowered his head and said.

The King of Yellow Clothes didn't give a shit, and said bluntly: "I believe you should also know that there was a serial cola poisoning incident in Osaka Castle recently, and the suspect's modus operandi was obviously abnormal. I also felt that there is a strange power in Osaka Castle, so I did some research in Osaka Castle before I came to you, and found some very interesting things. The magician who came back from the dream intends to use those so-called senior otakus to become gods."

   "How to become a god?" Liu Xing asked subconsciously.

After thinking for a moment, the king in yellow said, "If I'm not mistaken, those magicians want to collect enough spiritual power to make themselves gods, and this is also one of the easiest ways for you humans to become gods. One; as for spiritual power, it can actually be understood as emotions, but only strong emotions can be regarded as spiritual power, so those magicians are planning to develop a group of mad believers to provide themselves with the power of faith, and those senior otakus in your human mouths It is their best choice, because these senior otakus who are far away from society are more paranoid, and they are easy to be deceived."

"Those magicians use spells to convince the senior otaku that the second dimension is real, and they are the gods in charge of the second dimension, and then they use a website to post some tasks to the senior otaku, these tasks After completion, those senior otakus will get points, and when enough points are accumulated, they can enter the second-dimensional life, which is the theme park that these magicians made in a barren land in the dreamland, but because Those magicians need strong emotions, so the content of the tasks they publish can be imagined."

I see. . . etc.

  How does Liu Xing feel that what these magicians do is somewhat similar to the way the Cthulhu Running Group game hall operates?

   Liu Xing suddenly felt that this was a little terrifying, so he quickly diverted his attention, "Then my lord, do you want me to destroy the conspiracy of these magicians?"

   "No." The king in yellow said decisively: "I just think these things are very interesting, so I want to share them with you, but I came to you this time for something else."

I added this episode temporarily, because I believe you all know about the recent Jingani incident. I remembered the news of the murder of a son by a minister in the island country, so I asked a good friend who works in the island country, He told me that some middle-aged and elderly otaku would do some terrible things in the island country recently, so I wanted to write such a plot.

   Of course, this is actually also influenced by a video of an island country running group that I saw a few years ago. In that module, there is a secret church with two-dimensional as its selling point, which specially attracts otakus to become their fanatics.
