The Indescribable Diary - Chapter 25
Because it was checked that he did not know Latin, the book was a mosaic in Yu Yi’s eye. He flipped through it before, and it was indeed written in Latin. Although King Huang Yi had a Chinese version, the set stage this time was in Italy. The books that appeared couldn’t be in Chinese. If it was the original book of the oblivion snail city, then it was another story.
In fact, in Cthulhu’s worldview, such strange books as the Book of the Deathly Souls, the King Huang Yi, and teaching books could basically be found in a library with a short history. This assumption was made according to the original text of the Master of Technology, in which psychiatrists could casually find transcripts of the Book of the Deathly Souls. In fact, these things were quite widespread. Only these books were seen as crazy words.
However, once one understood the contents of these books, there was a great chance that he would go crazy. The wise man who knew the truth always died in the worst way. At that time, perhaps death was the best destination.
“Since it doesn’t work, I’ll do it.”
Lizi took over the King Huang Yi from Yu Yi and opened the book.
She Looked up. “KP, I’m going to make a Latin check. And, because I have a high level of education, will there be a certain bonus?”
All language checks were the initial point, but because of the rules in this regiment, 1-5 points were considered a great success, so these checks had been promoted to 5. As long as one casted a value less than or equal to five and not zero in a 100-sided pitch, it would be seen as successful.
“In terms of education, I can only give you a + 10 bonus.”
“. rd = 16. Failed slightly.”
At this moment, the book full of mosaics showed the prototype in Lizi’s eyes, which recorded the words of madness and chaos, and some kind of confusing ballad, but because of a slight failure, Lizi had no way to interpret the ballad. But she was sure, she could roughly understand the book.
“Alla.ma.tistax.tfittex.direttament.lejn.din.”
Looking at the books, Lizi gradually hummed a strange ballad.
“Shit?! Don’t sing!”
Huahua immediately rushed forward to seal Lizi’s mouth and then turned to Yu Yi and asked, “What did she just sing?”
Because Lizi spoke Latin, almost none of the people present could understand it, so they could only rely on Yu Yi, who was proficient in Latin in reality.
“It’s a little vague, but I still get it. It’s just if I tell you the meaning, I am in the danger of breaking the rule.” Yu Yi took a deep breath and said, “She sang the ballad of the King Huang Yi. I won’t say the lyrics, tsk… If it were accompanied by the summoning array, the sacrifice, and a few believers who sang together, King Huang Yi would probably come.”
[The willpower confrontation failed. Inspiration checks failed. SC check.]
[. r1d6 = 4. You who have witnessed the real and chaotic you and understood the dark universe. You are attacked by indescribable fear, and you feel great shock and spiritual shock…You lost 4 San points.]
After Huahua stopped Lizi’s death, KP’s prompt came out. Obviously, if Huahua had not stopped Lizi just now, he would suffer not just 1d6 but 1d10. Yu Yi remembered that the village rule of this TRPG was that if one lost 5 points in a day, one would enter into temporary madness, and at 10 points a day, one would enter a long-term madness. But fortunately, the day was already coming to an end.
[You have learned the magic of darkness: continue to disrupt the target in 1D4 rounds after consuming San and successfully engage in a willpower confrontation and focus on the target to make all creatures in an area out of sight.]
Well, the San value was not lost for nothing. So Lizi lost 4 points of San value in exchange for magic. In fact, it was quite a bargain. Along with magic that Lizi originally brought, now Lizi alone learned two magics. Well, she would be the only sorcerer designated by the TRPG.
“Well, do you want to read it?” Lizi reached out her hand, pushed her glasses, and put the book on the table.
“No, we only need one member who can do magic.”
In other words, people were not interested in this kind of magic, which could only cause disturbance but not material damage. Because there were no Latin points, it was either a great success or a failure. The interpretation of the King Huang Yi was a great success, and the slight failure of Lizi’s interpretation was the San value of 1D6. If it was a great success, it must at least be 1D10. That was deadly… It was not worth it. And if one accidentally went into temporary madness or long-term madness, tsk… Murmuring the song of the King Huang Yi in her mouth. What if King Huang Yi was summoned?
In the COC TRPG, a mysterious ancient book would only have a fixed magic no matter how one read it, so when one knew that the magic of the book was for auxiliary use, few players would be interested. Of course, it was not the only magic in King Huang Yi. The magic obtained by interpreting two almost identical “King Huang Yi” was, to a great extent, different. It mainly depended on the setting of the script.
Generally speaking, almost all the magic obtained from the books in the script would be helpful to the script. Of course, it could be a trap as well.
“Well, that’s all for today. It’s eight o’clock in the evening, and we still have about four hours to act.”
Fengye integrated all the information collected by everyone. He had always played the same role for intelligence management and information collection. Although this time he chose a career as an archaeologist.
“Because of the serious damage to the corpse, I do not recommend going out after 12:00 in the evening, so we still have four hours to act.”
Juzi took out her pen and drew a few circles on the map.
“These places–the clock tower, the church, and the house where Daocao and Huahua went to–are suspicious. Since Daocao said that something was there, let’s go there again. We may have to split up into three groups tomorrow. ”
“No,” Yu Yi suddenly said. “We are going to divide into five roads. Since my profession is a police detective, there is no need to put such a good identity in vain. I will go to the police station to see if there is any information. I don’t believe that the police will be indifferent to such things, and if that’s the case, then the police must have secrets.”
“Oh, I see… OK, then I will go to the hospital. As an autopsy doctor at the scene, it should be easy for me to blend in, especially if it has anything to do with the police. For Fengye, is there any place like a mental hospital in this town?”
“No, but there is another suspicious place.” Fengye took out a pen and drew a circle on the map. It was the graveyard zone.
“As a place where only a few people would go, I suspect there is something wrong with the graveyard.”
F**king graveyard. I’m afraid there’s only an old bone waiting for us.
“Very well. Tomorrow’s plan is confirmed, so what shall we do in the next four hours?”
Huahua looked at the map and pointed to the church’s direction. “Go to the church. The church is very close to us. It only takes two hours for a round trip, so we still have two hours to search, and there should be no one in the church at night. Even if someone was there, we have five people, two guns, one tube of dynamite, and one knife. We will be able to kill anyone.”
“That’s a good idea. I agree.”
Hence, such a happy decision was made.
