Real Cthulhu Running Game - #2318 - Chapter 2259: Each takes what he needs
To be on the safe side, Liu Xing returned to the carriage and took a look to make sure everything was okay before taking Yingjiang back to the bamboo forest, feeding Yingjiang breakfast while waiting for his own breakfast.
Xu Bin was very curious as to why Liu Xing suddenly sleepwalked, because Liu Xing had never had a similar situation in the past few days, and he had never mentioned to them that he would sleepwalk. After all, Liu Xing still had a leg injury. If he knew that he would sleepwalk, he would definitely notify them and let them keep an eye on him, or simply tie him up while sleeping to avoid further injuries during sleepwalking.
And Liu Xing didn’t hesitate for long, so he decided to tell his dream, because Liu Xing felt that this dream should be the configuration that came with Jinse when it left the factory, in order to let the people who got Jinse know something about Guo Er. There is information about Feng Can!
Putting aside Guo Er for the moment, Liu Xing is now certain that in the initial design, Jin Se and the old friend of Han Prefect had an explicit plot, so players can get Jin Se as long as they operate normally, and by the way, they can get Jin Se. Can get some useful information! It’s just that this process may take a long time, and there will be a waiting period in between.
So during this waiting period, the player can hear that a strange son-in-law has come to Yangjia Village. As a son-in-law of a big family, he is actually willing to marry a woman from an ordinary family as his wife, and is even willing to marry into the family!
As long as the players in the Cthulhu Run game lobby read this news, they will 100% think that this is another mission sent to their doorsteps, so they have been idle for the past two days, so they might as well go over and join in the fun.
If nothing else goes wrong, when players come to Yangjia Village, they will see Feng Can suddenly having an epilepsy attack. Then as long as the players step forward and choose to help, they should be able to find the strange device on the back of his head.
Although at the beginning, players may not understand how such futuristic things can appear in this ancient costume module?
And in Liu Xing’s opinion, the martial arts module should have modified this plot. Maybe this Feng Can will be a time traveler!
That’s right, Feng Can and Guo Er are good friends in the same dormitory. After they were involved in a supernatural event, their imaginations were not only opened up, but they also traveled to this parallel world, and then began their own paths of survival.
Among them, Guo Er may be a knowledgeable academic master, so he can step by step become the lord of Boyang City, while Feng Can may directly replace the original Feng Can because of his appearance, but this may also be Feng Can. This should be done deliberately, because this is a huge handle that allows him to use Feng Can as his puppet.
So Liu Xing felt that his previous guess might be wrong. Feng Can was not really made a puppet by Feng Ying, and the reason why he came to Yang Ping might also be affected by the mysterious device on the back of his head.
If this is the case, then the design of this plot is also quite interesting, because when the player learns about Feng Can’s past through dreams, his expression must be very unexpected. After all, who would have thought that he would meet him in the module? What about time travellers?
But the most interesting thing is that the player at this time is playing the role of a native of another world, so there is no way to directly recognize the time traveler like Feng Can, but you can also find a way to get these time travelers to assist you, such as letting them identify Special NPCs like Han Yu may provide some cross-era problem-solving ideas.
More importantly, the appearance of these time-travelers also gave Wangxiangtai a new meaning, that is, the time-travelers can return to the world they were originally supposed to be in through Wangxiangtai!
“Let’s go, is the plot of this martial arts module so wild? It actually directly arranges for us to use time-travelers as NPCs?”
After listening to Liu Xing’s story, all the players present took a breath, because the appearance of special NPCs such as Han Yu was still within their acceptable range. After all, these famous ancient poets were in the martial arts module. It’s understandable that he appears in the middle. Everyone knows that these great poets basically have a long sword in their hands, and Li Bai is even called the Qinglian Sword Saint, so he can be related to “martial arts”, not to mention that he really has one. Some martial arts novels have developed the legendary “Tang Poetry Sword Technique”.
Therefore, letting Han Yu and other great poets come as special characters in this martial arts module and giving them some special abilities is a setting that most players can accept and even like, because it is also a kind of preparation for players. Exclusive adventures are rare for a martial arts module that only has one year of gaming time.
What’s more, take today’s Han Yu as an example. Although his combat effectiveness is a bit high, it is still within an acceptable range in the martial arts module. In other words, it is not as good as the top but more than the bottom, because Han Yu’s combat effectiveness is 90%. Ninth, it depends on the state of the Han Yu crocodile, so as long as the thief is captured first and the king is captured, it will be easy to capture Han Yu.
“I can understand that the Cthulhu Running Game Hall arranged some great poets as easter eggs in this martial arts module, but I really have no way of understanding why the Cthulhu Running Game Hall arranged some time-travelers as NPCs.” Schiller couldn’t bear it He complained: “How should I put it, if these time travelers are also players, it would be okay, so that we can study some modern technologies openly. In short, our operational space will be much larger… But, these time travels The players are all NPCs, and we have no way to effectively contact them. After all, we players have a higher degree of freedom in this martial arts module, but we still cannot super travel at will, so we cannot directly say that we have also traveled through time. By.”
“This feeling is really uncomfortable.”
Liu Xing shook his head and said: “If we can directly pretend to be time travellers, then Boyang City may become our partner, and I can probably guess how Guo Er became the lord of Boyang City! In Before this, I thought that Guo Er got the support of a certain force to become the city lord of Boyang City. But now it seems that I suspect that this Guo Er is brave and cautious. After knowing the situation of Boyang City, he I chose to take a gamble and disguise myself as a descendant of Feishimen, because we also know that in ancient times, the best way to identify whether two people were related by blood was to shed blood.”
“Of course, we modern people know that it is not very scientific to identify relatives by bleeding, because as long as two people have the same blood type, there is a high probability that they can fuse with each other. But how did the ancients know so much? They only Knowing that parents and children can basically fuse with each other through blood, they think it is reliable to recognize relatives through blood! So Guo Er only needs to find a way to confirm that the elder of Feishimen has the same blood type as himself, then he can find this person People recognize their ancestors and return to their clan, and then use some small tricks that ancient people could not understand, so that they can become the lord of Boyang City.”
“Then Guo Er is really brave. He dares to play this kind of operation? Although as a modern person, his knowledge of certain things surpasses the ancients, the problem is that the ancients only had limited knowledge, but they There is no problem with his intelligence! So his set of operations can fool people into lameness, but as long as the slightest flaw is revealed, then Guo Er will be unlucky? But there is a saying that if you give it a try, the bicycle will become Motorcycle! As far as the current situation is concerned, Guo Er has made the right bet, but now I suspect that the reason why Guo Er succeeded was because he was used as a scapegoat by others in the City Lord’s Mansion.”
As soon as Liu Xing said this, everyone present was shocked again, but Xu Bin quickly reacted, “It is indeed possible, because the city lord’s palace in Boyang City is also well-informed, so they will definitely He knew earlier than ordinary people that the new Dragon Emperor was ill in bed and ignored the government affairs, so it was not difficult to infer that the situation of Kowloon’s inheritance had taken shape! If Boyang City was an ordinary city, it would be fine, but the problem is that Boyang There is no governor in the city, only the city lord! So whether it is the old city lord or others, they will worry that the city lord’s palace in Boyang City will have no future, because for a qualified emperor, the fewer cities like Boyang City, the better .”
“Just like the history we know, the first emperors of all dynasties will basically confer ministers on them, so that the civil servants and generals who accompany him to conquer the world can get the benefits they deserve. After all, he wants to be the emperor firmly. This position still depends on them, so the titles and fiefs at this time are free of charge. It is not impossible to even confer a king with a different surname. Of course, it is easier to confer a king with the same surname; but as the emperor’s position becomes more and more The more stable it is, the first emperor who is capable will choose to take back some titles and fiefs to continue to consolidate his position and prevent his descendants from facing some behemoths.”
“Of course, at this time, most of the people who were given back their titles, fiefs, and even their heads were military generals. Firstly, it was because the military power in their hands was very important. Secondly, because most of these generals were born in a reckless manner, that is, The kind of fierce warriors we often talk about have relatively low cultural levels and qualities, so they usually leave so many clues that you can’t even blame them if you don’t use them to scare the monkeys. This is why many Internet celebrities now collapse as soon as they take off. The reason is because most Internet celebrities are not actually popular by their own strength, but are just pigs who have caught up with the trend, so their strength does not support their current status.”
“So I felt a little strange before, that is, with the ability and courage of the new Dragon Emperor, why are these city lords allowed to continue to exist? Logically speaking, decades have passed and many city lords have been replaced, so The new Dragon Emperor should already have a lot of clues in his hands, so if he stands up and catches a few examples at this time, he can then release his military power with a glass of water and let those city lords with evil intentions go home and retire honestly! As a result, the new Dragon Emperor did not do this, so I only thought of one possibility, that is, the new Dragon Emperor is planning to leave these city lords to his heirs.”
At this time, Yang De brought a large bowl of porridge. Liu Xing and others went to scoop out a bowl, then sat down and continued eating and chatting.
“Just like Qianlong knew what Heshen had done, but never dealt with Heshen, and even allowed Heshen to continue to grow bigger and stronger, just to let his son Jiaqing solve the big problem of Heshen, This will not only greatly enhance the prestige of the new emperor, but also make Jiaqing’s internal funds abundant, which will make it much more convenient to do certain things; and for the successor of the new Dragon Emperor, his pressure In fact, it is conceivable, after all, the achievements of the new Dragon Emperor are too dazzling, so when he is his heir, he will inevitably be compared, and if he does not do something, he will easily be said to be the father of a tiger and the son of a dog. “
Xu Bin took a sip of porridge and continued: “Because the Xinlong Empire has not enfeoffed any vassal kings, these city lord mansions are equivalent to those small vassal states, and their foundation seems to be very stable, with the largest sect in the city. As a backing, but in reality it is too easy to remove these city lord’s mansions. Whether it is directly taking action or supporting other sects to take the lead, it can easily turn the city lord’s mansion into a prefect’s mansion; so recently In the past few years, many city lords have actually been unable to withstand the pressure and have chosen to retreat, directly changing their position as city lords for the status of a rich man. However, more city lords still choose to persist. After all, being a city lord is really beneficial. A lot.”
“More importantly, the city lord has been bound to a certain sect, so if he wants to give up his position as city lord, he must get the consent of the sect. And we also know that a person will hesitate for a moment when making a decision. If that group of people makes a decision, it will take three to five years without any results, especially for those who benefit from it; just like a piece of news I saw before, a rich man handed over all his wealth to I gave it to my pet dog, and then a professional team appeared around the dog to invest in it. In the end, the dog’s value also increased a lot, because this professional team also relied on it to make money.”
“So if I were a member of Feishimen, when I heard that there was an outsider who wanted to be the leader of the city, I would definitely support it with both hands, because he didn’t even have any acquaintances in Boyang City. There is no need to worry that he will really occupy the magpie’s nest and become the real city lord! So after the Kowloon seizure is over, if the final winner wants to make these city lords’ mansions history, then this scapegoat can be pushed out to take over. The remaining people can escape unscathed, and if the City Lord’s Mansion can continue to exist, then it will not be difficult to make this enemy abdicate and make way for someone more worthy.”
“So this can be considered a consensual relationship, right? Or should we say that everyone gets what they need? One of them became the city lord, while the other group found the scapegoat. Everyone has a bright future.”
Liu Xing smiled and said: “But compared to Guo Er, I am still more curious about why Feng Can went to Yang Ping.”
