Real Cthulhu Running Game - Chapter 1806
Chapter 1806 Much the same
“How should I put it, this seems to be the beginning of a fairly standard martial arts novel, that is, the protagonist’s parents and sect were murdered by unknown people, leaving only a few clues, but these clues are also very special, so there is no search The situation of the wrong person; but, Zhang Jingxu, you are a good-looking person now, and your understanding is quite high, but your strength is still not very good, right? And you don’t have any secrets in your hands?”
Facing Liu Xing’s question, Zhang Jingxu nodded and said, “Yes, the special skills I have now are the five basic talismans, which are gold/wood/water/fire/earth talismans! The offensive type of these talismans is fire and harmony. Gold, in which the fire talisman is the fireball technique, and the effect of the golden talisman is to make the weapon sharper. Even a wooden sword can cut iron like mud, but the duration of the effect is relatively short; then there is the earth talisman. It is to add a layer of armor, and it will also improve the user’s toughness, that is, to stand firm in the face of impact, which is equivalent to bringing a layer of hegemony effect.”
“The water charm is very functional, it can not only create pure water out of thin air, but also can be used to treat wounds, or to clean wounds, and even be used as a tracker, so my character card is for water charms. The most researched; as for the last wooden talisman, it seems a little strange to me, because its literal effect is to give birth to all kinds of plants, and even make dead trees spring, but this is not very useful for us, after all we have It’s not for farming.”
Zhang Jingxu continued with some doubts: “However, this wooden talisman seems to belong to that kind of pre-skill, which means that if you want some wood attribute skills after the point, you must be proficient in this wooden talisman, and Cthulhu must be proficient in it. The running group game hall also mentioned that this wooden rune may have some special effects.”
“Uh, why do I feel Zhang Jingxu, you’re going the wrong way this time? This is obviously a martial arts mod, but it turns out that this is a magician who needs a spell casting medium.” Yin En couldn’t help complaining: “And now you are These skills can not be said to be useless, it can only be said that they are not very useful!”
Zhang Jingxu nodded and said affirmatively: “Yes, I just evaluated my strength and found that I can only assist you now, because as long as a fire talisman misses, then I basically There is no time to cast the Fire Talisman again; and the defensive power that the Earth Talisman can give is also very limited, that is to say, the effect of this hegemony is reasonable, so I can beat Liu Xing one-on-one now.”
Liu Xing didn’t expect Zhang Jingxu to say this, so he immediately said unconvinced: “Hey, hey, it’s normal for a mage of yours to beat me as a doctor, after all, I’m the real assistant! But I have a hand to play with slingshots. You should be able to make a cameo role as a long-range shooter, right?”
“Yes, yes, but Liu Xing, don’t be too optimistic.”
As a hunter, Ding Kun stood up and said: “According to the character setting, I taught you this slingshot, so I still have a say in this aspect! First of all, the damage of the slingshot is indeed not low, but the slingshot’s damage is not low. The attack distance is relatively close, and you have to hit unarmored units to get damage, otherwise as long as others wear thicker, your slingshot will be useless; so if you want to be a cameo shooter, Liu Xing, you have to aim at the enemy’s Heads up, otherwise your slingshot basically can’t do damage, so this requires Liu Xing, you have to bet your luck in every battle round, if you are lucky, it may have miraculous effects, if you are unlucky, you have to play soy sauce already.”
As soon as Ding Kun finished speaking, Yin En continued to comment: “Yeah, something like a slingshot is a hidden weapon in the martial arts world, unless you can succeed like Dongfang Invincible, you can’t get on with a slingshot alone. On the table; and in the real world, I think those who play slingshots are basically going to hit a hare and pheasant… If I remember correctly, the reason why you asked Ding Ge to learn slingshots for this character card, Liu Xing, seems to be Is it to hunt snakes in the mountains?”
Liu Xing raised his brows, and then carefully recalled the memory of “Liu Peng”.
“Yes, this character card of mine is the slingshot I learned from Brother Ding to be able to go up the mountain to fight snakes, because we also know that there are many snakes in the vicinity of Heshan County, and my pharmacy needs snake galls as materials. , so I learned the slingshot to collect those snake galls better and safer. You must know that the snake galls of poisonous snakes are more effective than those of non-venomous snakes; of course, this is also the unique setting of this martial arts module, that is, different types of snake gallbladders All have different effects, and the more venomous the snake is, the better the gallbladder will be.”
Speaking of which, Liu Xing slapped his thigh and said, “So we were at a loss in the previous Heshan County module. The snake gallbladder that crosses the mountain is very useful. In short, it can make the user extremely immune. Part of the poison attribute damage! Or unless this poison is more powerful than Guoshanfeng’s poison, it can’t affect people who take Guoshanfeng snake gall.”
“One thing to say, some settings of this martial arts module are directly taken from those martial arts games, right? This not only divides the quality of weapons and equipment, but also different materials.” Yin En continued to complain. .
“This is also normal. After all, this is not the kind of holographic virtual online game in a certain novel, which allows players to make moves according to their knowledge of various martial arts. In short, this is still a game of rock-paper-scissors. Of course, if your scissors are made of meteorite iron, it can also cut rocks into shreds; so these martial arts and props are marked with quality, so that players can be more intuitive when calculating damage. After all, this is the end of the story. It’s still a Cthulhu run game, so luck is still more important than strength.”
Zhang Jingxu said with a smile: “So I found that although the effects of my five charms are quite general, the stability of this thing is very high. I have a 99% chance of successfully triggering its effect, and I can also use the charm paper in advance. form ready.”
“Can we use it then?” Yoon En asked curiously.
“Yes, yes, but if you use the rune paper I made, you will have to consume more MP, and the success rate will fluctuate according to your understanding of the rune.”
After thinking for a while, Zhang Jingxu continued: “Simply put, these talisman papers were drawn by me consuming MP values in advance, which is equivalent to making a fingerprint lock myself, so I will trigger these talisman papers later. It’s very simple, just put your hand on it; but when you use my fingerprint lock, you need to record your fingerprints one more time, which will take you some time and energy, and may even fail to record your fingerprints. Possibility; so even if it is a talisman, most of the talismans they produce are mainly auxiliary, because the offensive talisman paper in the hands of other heroes may not be as practical as a stone picked up on the side of the road. ”
“Oh, this is the kind of typical ordinary person who can’t use it well, and the expert is too lazy to use it.”
Liu Xing took out a slingshot from his rattan medicine box, nodded and said, “For those who are not strong enough to shoot a bow and arrow, this slingshot is a good substitute, and under certain conditions, it is also a good substitute. It can achieve the same effect as a bow and arrow, and at the same time, this slingshot is easier to carry and has a higher amount of ammunition; but everyone knows that this slingshot is no better than a real bow and arrow, so for those archers, they disdain to use a slingshot.”
“That’s true. I also have slingshot skills in the skill bar of this character card, but I still carry bows and arrows instead of slingshots, so now the problem comes.”
Ding Kun suddenly stared at Liu Xing and said, “Liu Xing, what is the situation in Junxiang we are going to today? Do you still need to take us to the doctor?”
“Yeah, our four-person team is not low enough? I am also a quasi-formal disciple of the sect, and although Brother Ding has not joined the sect, his archery skills are in Heshan County. One-third of an acre of land is hard to find a rival, even Luo… Wait, isn’t the Luo family the leader of Heshan County?”
After Zhang Jingxu’s reminder, Liu Xing discovered that the situation in Heshan County was somewhat different from the Heshan County in his impression, but in general they were similar.
The first is the same place, that is, Heshan County today is still a transportation hub between two big cities—Far West City and Boyang City, so people who travel to and from these two cities will basically pass through Heshan County, so Heshan County is also well developed; it’s just that people passing by Heshan County are afraid to walk at night because the mountain breeze is present in the mountains near Heshan County, because the mountain breeze has also become a Nocturnal owl, who only likes to hunt at night.
Then there is a different place – the Luo family, which was originally the largest family, disappeared a few years ago, because the Luo family once had their ancestral house destroyed by the mountain wind, and they used the power of the whole family to solve this problem. Guoshanfeng, but it turned out to be a big defeat. Among them, the head of the Luo family and several important family members became Guoshanfeng’s dishes; so the Luo family was never recovered and was eaten by the newly rising He family and Tian family. It was cleaned up, and although the He family and the Tian family didn’t deal with each other very well, for the time being, no one could do anything to the other, so they managed Heshan County together.
It is worth mentioning that although Heshan County in the martial arts module is called a “county”, it is actually just a “city”, that is, a market formed spontaneously for some reason, so it is also There is no county magistrate.
“It seems that Heshan County in this martial arts module should have chosen a timeline without our intervention, so the Luo family was not able to win Shanfeng, and the gray rat king did not appear; but the He family and the Tian family It seems to be quite ordinary. One took over the Luo family’s inn business, and the other accepted the Luo family’s casinos, but they seem to have the support of the sects behind them. It seems that if we want to get For this month’s event rewards, you must first contact the sects behind them through these two families.”
Liu Xing frowned and said: “As for the Junxiang we are going to this time, the reason why I came to see a doctor was that an unknown monster appeared nearby, so its attack caused several injuries to the villagers, and the usual The method can’t cure the injuries of these villagers, so I let me go to see; and I was also worried that the monster would attack me on the way, so I called you guys too!”
“A monster? It’s interesting.”
Ding Kun took out his bow and arrow and started the daily maintenance, “By the way, the monsters in this martial arts module seem to be created by those who are left behind, because before those who are left behind were expelled from Zhuzi Academy, there were no sightings of monsters in all parts of the country. intelligence; and after those stragglers flowed into the people, there began to be sighting reports about monsters! From the point of view of us outsiders, this statement is actually quite reasonable, because these monsters are indeed a bit like the product of genetic modification, Just like the fire tiger we encountered before, how could it possibly burn itself under normal circumstances? You must know that animals, including us humans, have an innate fear of fire.”
“That’s right, I remember that among the hundreds of schools of thought that are considered to be side-by-side, several of them are studying a topic – how to combine two or even more creatures, and then let the new creatures produced by fusion obtain their fusion. The advantages of the material and its disadvantages are eliminated. For example, after the tortoise and the rabbit are combined, I hope that the tortoise and the rabbit not only have their own carapace with outstanding defense, but also can run faster than the rabbit… But these side-by-side techniques are not enough. Therefore, the fusion in their mouths may be a simple and rude combination of two creatures, or even forcibly pieced together.”
Liu Xing shook his head and continued: “No matter what, we have to go to Junxiang to see what this monster, or mythical creature, looks like, anyway, I guess this thing should come to trouble us. , is also the first hurdle we encountered in this martial arts module; but the rain outside is so heavy, we may have to wait until tomorrow to reach Junxiang.”
According to “Liu Peng”‘s memory, Liu Xing knew that his group went out after lunch, and that Junxiang was about three hours away from Heshan County, but his group only walked for more than an hour. It was found that the weather was not right, and at the same time, some medicinal materials brought by Liu Xing were afraid of getting wet, so they could only find this ruined temple to hide from the rain; as a result, just as Liu Xing and others hid in this ruined temple, it was pouring rain outside. Although the rain is a lot lighter now, it has not stopped for more than an hour.
“It seems that we have to sleep and break the temple as soon as we come today, but this broken temple often has some important plots in the martial arts world, so we should prepare in advance.”
