Real Cthulhu Running Game

  Chapter 800 Mountaineering (Part 1)

"Kihuakai Yeji's cave is in the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees? There seems to be such a possibility. If I remember correctly, tools such as the compass cannot be used in the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees; about this, the reason for mainstream recognition now The volcanic lava of Mount Fuji has a strong magnetic field, so it affects the use of tools such as compasses. In addition, the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees covers the sky and the sun, so even if people who enter the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees do not want to commit suicide, they are likely to be in Aoki. The original tree sea lost his way and died." Zhang Jingxu said with a frown, "but the reason for the volcanic lava has not been clearly proved, so we have reason to suspect that the reason why Aokigahara tree sea is like this is because the wood flowers bloom Yeji to prevent Someone has determined the location of her cave."

Ding Kun nodded and said hesitantly: "It's true, but it's not easy for us to go deep into the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees. In the dense forest, it is difficult for us to identify the direction, so we are easy to get in and hard to get out.”

   This is a problem.

   Liu Xing looked at the direction of Aokigahara Tree Sea again, and finally gave up the plan to go in and find out.

   After all, as the goddess of Mount Fuji, Liu Xing felt that Muhuakai Yeji should set up her cave on Mount Fuji, not at the foot of Mount Fuji.

   But then again, Liu Xing wanted to come up with another thing about Mount Fuji, "By the way, I remember that Mount Fuji is an active volcano. The last time it was dormant was more than 300 years ago."

Ding Kun nodded and said: "Yes, geologists still believe that Mount Fuji is an active volcano, although it has not erupted for hundreds of years, but in the thousand-year history recorded, Mount Fuji erupted. There are as many as more than ten records, and on average, it erupts once every century, so many people think that Mount Fuji will erupt sooner or later; by the way, our big brother had a plan back then, that is, to send planes to bomb Mount Fuji, artificially. to trigger the eruption of Mount Fuji."

   "So is it possible that Yeji's cave is in the crater?" Liu Xing asked again.

   All of a sudden, Zhang Jingxu and the others fell into silence.

  If Muhuakai Yeji's cave is near the crater, then this can be troublesome.

For the sake of insurance, although the island country officially opens Mount Fuji for tourists to visit, ordinary tourists basically have to stop when they reach a height of about 2,000 meters, because the mountain roads leading to higher points are controlled, after all, they have not received professional training. It is too dangerous for ordinary tourists to continue going up, and even professional climbers need to be well prepared.

   For example, Liu Xing and others spent a lot of money to buy five sets of professional fan equipment this time, and also specially checked the weather forecast.

  Tomorrow is a good day for climbing.

   "Forget it, let's take a step by step tomorrow. If nothing happens, we should be able to rest here tomorrow night." Zhang Wenbing said with a smile.

   Liu Xing nodded, and now he really can only take one step at a time. After all, there are too few clues given by Zhu.

   As for going to Asama Shrine for help, Liu Xing and others agreed that this is just an alternative, and it is better not to go unless it is absolutely necessary, because it is still uncertain whether Asama Shrine has joined the public faction.

   Anyway, Sengen Shrine did not join the samurai faction.

   After returning to his room, Liu Xing couldn't help but glanced at the direction of Aokigahara Tree Sea.

   Someone? !

   Liu Xing frowned, watching a short man walk quickly into the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees.

   Most importantly, the man did not use any lighting, nor did he carry a backpack.

   "Is it suicide?" Liu Xing muttered to himself.

   The people who entered the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees at this time, apart from some video owners who specialize in making supernatural videos, are only those who are bent on death.

   And this man's situation is more like the latter.

   Liu Xing looked at the man who had disappeared in the woods and could not help but sighed.

  Life is not easy.

After sighing, Liu Xing decided to go to bed. After all, it was impossible for him to catch up with the man who wanted to commit suicide. As for calling the police, it was even more unreliable, because when the police found the man, the It must have been a corpse.

   The next morning.

  Because Liu Xing and others not only want to climb Mount Fuji, but also need to pay attention to where Muhuakai Yeji’s cave is, so Ding Kun, who has a lot of mountaineering experience, thinks that it takes about ten hours for his group to go up the mountain.

   So Liu Xing and others got up at six in the morning.

   During breakfast, Liu Xing told what he saw last night.

"Alas, the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees is worthy of being the second largest suicide shrine in the world after the Golden Gate Bridge. I didn't expect that we would be able to encounter suicides on the first day we came here, but then again, Lu Tianya told me about her When I was in Kyoto, I used to take the subway a lot, and every once in a while, I would encounter an office worker committing suicide in the subway, but the people next to him were accustomed to it, and some people even complained about being late for work.” Zhang Jingxu sighed and said. .

Yin En shrugged and said, "This is a high-pressure society with island country characteristics, especially those office workers who have to support a family. Their mental pressure is much greater than that of our senior high school students in China, plus the morning rush hour. The subway is crowded with people, and most of them are office workers leading to the situation, so this leads to the cross-transmission of negative emotions among office workers, and finally leads to some office workers’ mental breakdown and impulsive suicide.”

   Liu Xing nodded and changed the subject: "Forget it, let's not talk about such a heavy topic, lest we can't help jumping off Mount Fuji later; by the way, Brother Zhang, what's the weather like today?"

   "Like yesterday, today's weather is very suitable for climbing Mount Fuji." Zhang Wenbing, who was holding a mobile phone, said, "But the weather forecast says that there is a 10% low probability of light rain on Mount Fuji."

   "It doesn't matter what Xiao Yu said, it doesn't affect us too much." Yin En said while drinking coffee.

  After breakfast, Liu Xing and others came to Yoshidaguchi of Mount Fuji.

  From the Edo period of the island country to the present, the Yoshidaguchi route has been the most commonly used route for climbers to climb Mount Fuji, because this route has a direct bus from the urban area to the entrance of the mountain, and the mountain path of this mountaineering line is well repaired and convenient for mountaineering.

   And there are many mountain huts on this route, which is convenient for Liu Xing and others to resupply and rest.

   "I'm going, there are still so many people climbing the mountain today?" Yin En said in surprise.

   Therefore, at this time, Yoshidaguchi has gathered a lot of tourists who are ready to climb the mountain, and it is estimated that there are three figures.

Liu Xing took a close look at these tourists, and after roughly determining that they were not from the public faction, he said: "At present, the area where Mount Fuji is located has not announced to join the public faction or the martial arts faction, so the martial law of the public faction and the martial law faction is not here yet. It takes effect, so these tourists can still come to climb Mount Fuji; not to mention that there is no news about the treasures in Mount Fuji from the military faction, so the public faction should not have received the corresponding information, so there is no reason for the public faction to block Mount Fuji."

"But it's also a good thing for us to have so many tourists. After all, they can cover our actions and make us less obtrusive." Zhang Jingxu said with a smile: "I thought we were the only ones to climb today. Mount Fuji, I am a little worried that we will be too conspicuous, and attract members of the public faction to investigate our origin. If they find out our identity, I am afraid we will have to 'sleep' in the sea of ​​trees in Aokigahara tonight. ."

   At this time, a bus stopped outside Yoshida Exit, and more than a dozen tourists got off the bus.

   What makes Liu Xing a little concerned is that this is a group of European tourists.

  Although the public faction and the samurai faction only control the Kanto region and the Kansai region, other areas of the island country are also severing local foreign tourists. After all, this battle between the public and military is an infighting of the island country, and if foreigners are involved, it will be troublesome.

  Therefore, there is a foreign tour group at this time, which seems to be something wrong.

   At this time, other local tourists from the surrounding island countries also looked at those foreigners in surprise.

   "What's wrong with these foreigners?" Zhang Jingxu whispered.

Yin En touched his chin, shook his head and said, "Judging from the fact that they brought an island country tour guide, these foreigners are likely to be a group of ordinary foreign tourists, just because they didn't get on the first batch of planes and ships to go home. , that's why they come to climb Mount Fuji in their spare time; but don't forget, now both the public faction and the martial arts faction have attracted many foreigners, so this may be a team building project prepared by the public faction for this group of foreign friends, So we still have to be careful with these foreigners."

At this time, Zhang Wenbing said seriously: "I think these foreigners should be members of the public faction, because although my previous superficial job was in charge of finance in Europe, I also often participated in some social occasions, so I am very Some luxury brands are still familiar, so I found that the mountaineering equipment of these foreigners is a full set of famous brands like us.”

   "Can't this be because they have money?" Liu Xing asked suspiciously.

Zhang Wenbing laughed, shook his head and said, "Liu Xing, didn't you notice that the clothes on those tall foreigners don't fit well? It's obviously like we want to come to Mount Fuji on a temporary basis, so the commissioner prepared a Set of mountaineering equipment, and the public and martial factions are responsible for the logistics management of the Chinese members. They will choose to provide the best equipment for various reasons, but because of the different races, the version of the clothes may be a little different. That's why those foreigners wear clothes that don't fit well."

   Liu Xing looked at the tall foreigners and found that their clothes did not fit well, and the clothes and equipment of these foreigners were also very uniform.

   It seems likely that these foreigners are indeed members of a public faction.

   And Liu Xing also noticed that some foreigners were whispering when the island tour guide didn't notice them, and Liu Xing could see that their expressions were a little dissatisfied.

   "It seems that the foreign aid of these public factions has been rejected, so they are arranged to 'relax' at this time." Liu Xing said with a smile.

   If nothing else, it should be that the island country players in the public faction wanted to prevent these foreign players from robbing them of their contribution points, so they united to exclude these foreign players, so that these foreign players did not have the opportunity to perform side quests in the first place.

After all, if you want to get more benefits in the Battle of Gongwu, you must not only kill the players of the hostile forces, but also find a way to suppress other players on your side, because who is the final reward of the Battle of Gongwu depends on each player What about the player's contribution?

   If there are players who haven’t started the first side quest yet, then unless these players can have adventures, they can only be the tail of the crane.

   But then again, the presence of these public faction players in Mount Fuji is not good news for Liu Xing and others.

  Although the players of these public factions should not know the identity of their group, they are not afraid of 10,000, just in case, if the players of these public factions notice their group, then this matter can not be good.

   And Liu Xing is also worried that the kp of this side quest will take a slap in the head, and by the way, he will also release a side quest to the players of the public faction.

   At this moment, the players of the public faction began to climb Mount Fuji.

   Looking at the backs of the players from the public faction, Liu Xing could not help but notice the only islander in the crowd.

   Liu Xing didn't notice it when he was looking at the front just now, so Liu Xing just now found out that the back of this islander seems to be very similar to the suicide he saw last night!

   Are they the same person?

   Liu Xing immediately told Zhang Jingxu and others what he thought.

"I would rather believe what it is than what it is not. We must be prepared that the islander is Liu Xing. You saw the suicide yesterday, so why did he enter the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees yesterday? Could it be that there is a public house in the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees? The secret base of the faction?" Ding Kun said with a frown.

Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees is a nature reserve in itself, plus its reputation, so almost no one dares to go deep into the depths of Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees except those who commit suicide. The police only dare to tie a rope around their waists and move around in the periphery, for fear that they will get lost and die after going deep into the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees. Therefore, the depths of the Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees are indeed suitable for building a secret base.

   At this moment, Zhang Wenbing frowned and suddenly said, "Wait, bomb?!"

   Liu Xing and others instantly understood what Zhang Wenbing meant.

  If there is really a secret base in Aokigahara, then the owner of this secret base can use enough bombs to fuse Mount Fuji in the first place!

   To declare in advance, I know that it is very unreliable for a bomb to trigger the eruption of Mount Fuji, but in this parallel world, there is such a black technology by default.
