Real Cthulhu Running Game - #2314 - Chapter 2255: Conspiracy in the module
To this day, Liu Xing still insists on his original idea, that is, at this time, he may have come to the initial stage of the Cthulhu Running Team game hall. According to other games, it is a demo version, that is, a get The samples we are discussing here only contain the general gameplay and basic composition of the game. The characters may be represented by a colorless cylinder, while things like houses are represented by a large rectangle. As for the official version, the painting style is cool. Xuan’s spell attack is just a line in this version.
After all, the role of the demo version is to allow a game company to judge the development difficulty and potential of the game, so the minimum resources are used to create such a barely playable demo version.
Of course, some demo versions used for players to play will be much more refined, or this demo version is actually for players to try out the first chapter of the game, because the reason why these demo versions are released for players to play is, The main thing is to make players interested and confident in their games, so that they can pre-order their games. Then they can judge whether the game is a hot seller based on the number of pre-orders, so that they can decide whether they should pay for this game in the future. Increase or reduce the budget, or cut the project outright.
However, this is just the idea of a normal game company. A game manufacturer that has been associated with Fake has obviously launched a very popular game demo and has been recognized by most players, but in the end the project was terminated!
Farke Konami.
Liu Xing touched his chin and felt that Nyarlathotep should also test whether the Cthulhu Run game mode is suitable before officially creating the Cthulhu Run game hall, or in addition to Cthulhu Run game In addition to the group game mode, can you use other methods to achieve your goals, such as the main **** space mode? Or is it the ghost story mode?
So Liu Xing thought it was because of his dream, so after entering this module, he did not hear any system prompts, let alone task reminders. As a result, it seems that these two functions have not been implemented at all.
But Liu Xing is still curious about one thing, that is, how many players are there in this module?
Regarding this question, Liu Xing can only think of two answers now. The first answer is that this module is similar to the novice module he has experienced, that is, there is only one player, and everyone else is NPC!
After all, the beginning of this module is that the player suddenly appears in a strange place. Anyone who is not an experienced player will be stunned at this time. Before the player can react, the NPC boss has already finished his lines and disappeared. left the office.
In just a few dozen seconds, it is difficult for ordinary people to react, and when faced with such a strange situation that they have never experienced before, it is normal for them to be scared to the point of going blank and unable to move. , so by the time the player reacts, the intercom should also be ringing.
At this time, there is no one else around the player.
As for the evidence to support this speculation, it is naturally the walkie-talkie in Liu Xing’s hand, because judging from the current situation, only the boss and himself are carrying walkie-talkies, and the boss’s behavior does not look like an ordinary person. After all, That ordinary person could maintain normal thinking when he suddenly teleported from a bedroom to an unfamiliar office after closing and opening his eyes, and ran out without hesitation when he heard a scream?
And even if your body moves faster than your brain, you should realize that something is wrong with the current situation after you run out, so you will still hesitate to a certain extent.
In addition, the scream of the fourth child’s girlfriend also ended abruptly, and the sound was also very sudden, so it is difficult for ordinary people to locate by this scream, not to mention that the teaching building is divided into With two parts, it is not easy to achieve accurate positioning.
What’s more important is that after the boss witnessed the horror of the monster, he didn’t turn around and run away. Instead, he chose to hide in a nearby classroom. This seemed a little too calm and conflicted with his rash behavior of running out!
Unless the boss has some connection with the fourth’s girlfriend, Liu Xing really can’t understand why he would do this. . . If that were the case, it would make sense for the fourth child to turn into a monster.
As for the second guess, it is easier to understand, that is, everyone in the module this time, including the fourth child who may have turned into a monster, are players!
As a demo version of the Cthulhu Run game lobby, there are still things that should be included in the module, that is, both players and mythical creatures must be present, and the location where the module takes place must also be chosen in a familiar and familiar place. In an unfamiliar place, players will not have the advantage of playing at home.
So the teaching building is a very good place, because most people, especially young people, have basically spent more than ten years in the teaching building, so even if they go to a strange teaching building, they can adapt quickly. Come down.
What’s more, the structure of the teaching building is very simple. It is nothing more than classrooms and offices, and then a few special classrooms such as chemistry laboratories are added, and then there is nothing more.
After all, there is nothing much to say about the land of reincarnation, unless the monster has a problem with its sense of smell.
So everyone in this dormitory is unlucky and was chosen as a test subject by Nyarlathotep who was passing by to verify the feasibility of the Cthulhu Running Group Game Hall?
Thinking of this, Liu Xing felt a little thirsty, so he walked to the water dispenser next to him and poured a glass of water, and then found a seat to sit down.
Hmm, this chair can actually be used to sit on, what a game.
After Liu Xing silently played a joke in his mind, he began to think about another question, that is, why he came here.
The dreams I had had in the Cthulhu Running Group game hall before were actually traceable, and they were more or less targeted, which allowed me to know some important information.
But this dream also revealed a very important information, that is, there was a demo version in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, and then there was really no more. And if you think this information is important, then it is indeed It’s quite important, after all, it’s related to the changes in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, but for Liu Xing, it’s just a talking point, so this is different from before.
Unless there is something else that I haven’t discovered yet?
So far, Liu Xing has only taken a few steps out, and then has been wandering around in this office. As for other people in this module, they have only seen one boss. So I still have to go out.
But is there still enough time?
As far as Liu Xing’s personal perception is concerned, he has been dreaming for a long time, so based on previous experience, he is about to wake up, right?
However, there is no concept of time in dreams, so Liu Xing didn’t know what time it was, so after a moment of confusion, he walked out of the office again.
But before leaving the office, Liu Xing did not forget to search the office carefully, because according to the module design ideas of the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, no matter how big the strength gap between players and mythical creatures is, there is still a chance to start from In the module, you can escape unscathed, and to do this, in addition to being lucky enough, sometimes you also need the help of props.
Especially this kind of “secret room survival” type module.
Although the actual area of the teaching building seems to be very large, and there is a lot of space for players to move around, in the end it is still a huge secret room, unless the school door has not been closed, or there is a place to climb out of the wall.
As long as Nyarlathotep does not deliberately raise the height of the wall, then for college students like himself, they can climb over the wall by just building a ladder, but even Liu Xing can guess that the Cthulhu Running Group game hall is aimed at players. “Malicious”, this kind of human ladder can only send out one person at most, so when facing that terrible monster, who would be willing to give up this opportunity to escape from death?
Therefore, many ancient military art books will mention the strategy of “encircling three and missing one”. That is, when you surround the enemy with superior force, unless you can ensure that your appetite is big enough to eat all the enemies, otherwise You have to leave a way out for these enemies to prevent them from fighting you to the death. Even if you win in the end, you will suffer more losses, and you may even be hit by “burning the cauldron”, “the enemy will win” and so on. idiom.
So leaving a way for the enemy to survive can effectively reduce the enemy’s willpower, and there is a high probability that confusion will occur when the enemy chooses to escape. Therefore, surrounding three and missing one has all the benefits and no harm.
So the question is, if Liu Xing finds the remaining three roommates, and then finds that as long as three people are willing to take a ladder in a certain fence, the fourth person can be sent out of the fence, then who among these four people Should I go out first?
That means the public is right, and the mother-in-law is right. After all, everyone knows that if they stay in school, they may be eaten by the monster and leave only bones, so who would want to stay?
Afraid that my brother will suffer, and I am also afraid that my brother will drive a Land Rover.
This is actually the normal mentality of many ordinary people. After all, your jealousy may be beyond your imagination, but it is just not triggered usually, because if you just heard that a stranger thousands of miles away was pregnant, Five million, then you can only say that he is more lucky, and he is lucky. But when the lottery winner becomes the brother lying on the bed opposite you, then you will inevitably think of a question – why did he win the lottery? Not yourself? Then there is the danger of thinking, “These are supposed to be mine!”
Therefore, Liu Xing has watched many videos explaining cases in the real world, and found that some cases with extremely bad nature are caused by the jealousy of friends. For example, someone attacked her best friend who regarded her as a biological sister, and even Crazy to attack her children, the reason why she did this is “I think I am more beautiful and more capable than her, but her current life is better than mine, so I must destroy everything about her”!
So if this module really has a ladder-building link, then Liu Xing can be sure that everyone wants to be the person who can leave the school, not the ladder below this person!
As a result, the originally united escape quartet will fall apart.
This is such a cruel trick!
But this is a conspiracy, which makes people know that there is a problem but there is nothing they can do about it.
As for the only thing that Liu Xing found in the office that could be called a prop, it was a reasonably well-fitting raincoat, but to be precise, it should be the kind of thing you would wear when playing Rapids in an amusement park. Wear a plastic film, because the serious plastic raincoat is quite reliable in terms of strength, but in Liu Xing’s opinion, this disposable plastic film will be damaged as soon as it is torn off, and it will even be torn as long as the movement is too big.
So Liu Xing was very confused about why this piece of plastic film appeared in the office, but this thing might be very useful to deal with the monster, because it can allow him to use the golden cicada to escape from its shell.
In addition, Liu Xing also took away a thermos cup filled with hot water. In addition to replenishing water when necessary, it can also be used to increase the strength of the monster to see if it is afraid of hot water. .
Logically speaking, this monster should have a weakness, and this weakness can also be exploited by the player.
Therefore, Liu Xing looked a little funny when he walked out of the office at this time, because Liu Xing, wearing a raincoat, held a thermos cup in one hand, a wooden ruler in the other, and a walkie-talkie pinned to his collar.
Where to go first?
After Liu Xing thought for a moment, he decided not to go to the new teaching building where the boss was.
That’s right, Liu Xing can tell from the wall tiles that the teaching building he is in is relatively old and uses the very common white tiles, while the new teaching building opposite uses red, yellow and blue tiles. Look. It’s very conspicuous when you stand up.
As for the floor Liu Xing is currently on, it should be the second floor, but when Liu Xing looked down, he discovered that this building seemed to have a negative first floor. Of course, this negative first floor was not a basement, but it was caused by the terrain. The first floor is below the road.
It seems that this module still takes place near Shu?
As we all know, the terrain of Shu is very complex, with mountains and hills everywhere. Therefore, in Liu Xing’s hometown, there are many residential areas distributed in a trapezoidal shape, that is, the first floor of one unit is parallel to the third floor of the second unit opposite.
Then do you want to go to the first floor to take a look?
Liu Xing thought for a while and decided to search from low to high to avoid missing anything.
As a result, when Liu Xing came to the first floor, he found a locked iron door at the stairway leading to the first floor. It seems that there should be several offices or utility rooms on the first floor?
But, this door lock can also prevent students, because Liu Xing found that he could jump directly to the first floor!
