Alice sighed and said with a smile: "This is actually a standard plot. A treasure seems to have extremely strong power and can meet any request of the owner, but there is no free lunch in this world.
, in the end the owner will still pay a price for it, maybe the price is more than what he gets."
Liu Xing nodded and smiled: "Yeah, how can there be a free lunch in this world? As a Chinese young people born in the 1990s, we are well aware of one truth, that is, free games
It’s the most expensive game.”
"right!"
Hearing what Liu Xing said, Li Hanxing immediately became energetic and said: "Although the free game routine was not invented by Huaxia Game Company, it was carried forward by Huaxia Game Company, and the in-app purchase system made the entire game monetized.
The gold level has increased several levels, allowing the revenue of free games to exceed those of games with a point-and-click charging model... I think back when I was a naughty kid with a double-digit monthly pocket money, and I spent money every day.
Internet cafes provide rich gaming experience to those big guys who make money, and now I feel uncomfortable thinking about it.”
At this time, even Sun Huiwen, who never liked to complain, said: "Yes, especially in the current era of mobile games, free games have basically become the mainstream of the industry, and every game seems to be free of charge.
Play, but if you want to have fun, you have to spend money, otherwise you will be stuck for a few times in each activity. As a result, you just charge some money for each activity, and in the end you find that you have charged one or two thousand for a mobile game.
, but can’t bear to spend dozens or hundreds of dollars on a buyout game.”
"So I am still the best in Azur Lane. The card drawing experience is one of the best among mainstream mobile games. In terms of revenue, I basically make money by selling skins. And the quality of the skins is nothing to me. Sure enough, I understand Azur Lane."
It’s so popular.” Liu Xing said with a smile.
Looking at Liu Xing and others who suddenly went off topic while chatting, Alice looked confused.
After all, as an Englishman, it should be difficult for Alice to understand the bizarre development path of Chinese games.
"Ahem, let's stop talking about the game. Let's get back to the topic now."
Liu Xing looked at Alice and said: "So according to the first half of the legend you told Alice, the treasure obtained by Oda Nobunaga can give people extremely strong power, but the price that needs to be paid is a
A curse that threatens the life of its owner?"
Alice nodded and continued: "Yes, that treasure can nominally change the owner's luck, make everything go smoothly for the owner in a short period of time, and can turn things around when faced with a desperate situation.
After the owner has passed the experience period, the owner needs to throw a coin every day. If the coin lands heads, then the owner will continue to get good luck, but if the coin lands heads, the owner will continue to get good luck.
If it is tails, then the owner will be unlucky, but the most important thing is that if the coin stands up when it hits the ground, the owner will definitely die."
Liu Xing and the other three couldn't help but raise their brows when they heard this, because in the eyes of players like them, this treasure has a very typical Cthulhu running team style - luck determines fate, and if this is really the case, then
It seems that both Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi failed in the end.
It's a pity that Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi in this parallel world are probably just NPCs, so they can't get reminders from the Cthulhu Racer game lobby like players, and they may still beg for that treasure to bring to themselves even before they die.
With good luck, I can fight one against a hundred, relying on one hundred soldiers to fight against Akechi Mitsuhide's ten thousand rebels, or maybe I can regain my health at the last moment and recover from my illness as before.
"By the way, according to our current speculation on this legend, the good luck the owner received at the beginning is actually an overdraft of his future luck, so when the coin finally stands up, all the previous bad luck will flow to the owner.
That's why Oda Nobunaga suddenly encountered Akechi Mitsuhide's rebellion and was directly buried in the flames of Honnoji Temple. Toyotomi Hideyoshi was seriously ill, but still managed to survive for a while. But the most important thing is that if the owner has not
If the debt of luck owed before has been paid, the owner's family will repay it for him, which is also the main reason why the Oda family and the Toyotomi family declined rapidly after the death of their head."
Alice thought about it and said with a smile: "I heard that the old turtle Tokugawa Ieyasu also got that treasure after he conquered the world, but he did not choose to use that treasure because he knew the first two things about it.
No matter what the fate of the owner, he was able to die a good death, established the Tokugawa Shogunate and gained the world of the island country."
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and said: "In that case, I think the end of the legend should be about Tokugawa Ieyasu returning the treasure intact to Zhao and returning it to the Oda family, or maybe it was buried in the Oda family.
The base camp of Nagoya Castle, which is now the Nagoya area."
"Yes, Tokugawa Ieyasu knew that the treasure was unlucky, so he decisively chose to return the treasure to Furuno Castle and built a new castle tower, which is an island-style castle, to store it.
This treasure is today's Nagoya Castle. Although Nagoya Castle was damaged in the war, the secret room used to store the treasure has not been discovered." Alice smiled and said: "Yes, this one
If nothing else happens, the treasure should still be in Nagoya Castle, and Nagoya Castle is on the territory of the public faction. As for the most important point, the fire brigade that is mainly responsible for the fire safety of Nagoya Castle is across the river!"
Liu Xing and the other three nodded, with the same expressions as before.
"Now a lot of things can be explained. If we guessed correctly, the reason why the public faction blew up the bridge today is to delay time to ensure that they can set fire to Nagoya City smoothly. By then they will
You can take advantage of the chaos to open the secret room and get the treasure, and then use that treasure to defeat the samurai faction and gain control of Nagoya." Alice said seriously.
Liu Xing looked in the direction of Nagoya City, frowned and said: "This is really a good plan. Something that is intangible and invisible like luck is indeed a big killer, because our martial arts faction has other things.
There are ways to prevent it, but luck is really hard to guard against, and if it is only used this time, the side effects of that treasure will only be on that person. This means that the public faction can switch to Nagoya Castle as long as they send a scapegoat.
, then this is simply a bloody gain; as for if this treasure is still used in the subsequent public-military battle, then the price the public faction needs to pay is only one family, which is nothing to them."
Speaking of this, Liu Xing actually had some doubts in his heart, because Liu Xing knew very well that the Cthulhu Run game lobby would not leave props with such buggy abilities. After all, such props seriously affect the balance of the game and the cost.
It is simply not proportional to the output, so Liu Xing estimates that this treasure may have other restrictions.
As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, Alice gave Liu Xing an answer, "Liu Xing, you can actually rest assured about this, because as I said before, there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world, and some treasures are nothing
It can be used by any fish or shrimp. After all, a treasure of this level will choose its own owner, so according to our guess, this treasure should only be used by people with great luck, because Oda Nobunaga
Both Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Toyotomi showed that they were very lucky before they obtained this treasure."
"For example, in the most critical battle in Oda Nobunaga's life - the Battle of Okehazama, luck was completely on the side of Oda Nobunaga who was at an absolute disadvantage. This allowed Oda Nobunaga to successfully attack Imagawa Yoshimoto.
, gained valuable development opportunities, otherwise the Oda family would have become history in advance; as for Toyotomi Hideyoshi's luck, it is even better. Although many people attribute his success to his good observation and flattery, we also
I have to say that he was lucky enough to meet a good boss like Oda Nobunaga, and the time and location of this good boss’s sudden death were just right.”
Hearing this, Li Hanxing touched his chin and said: "This is interesting. If it is really like what you said, Alice, then who will the public faction choose to sacrifice? People with such great luck, now
No matter what, he must be at least the number one figure in the public faction, right?"
First of all, we can do an elimination method here, that is, the player cannot be the owner of that treasure.
The reason is very simple. If this treasure is held and used by a certain player, then this player will definitely become the undisputed number one on the contribution list, and the price he needs to pay is not too high, because
Isn't this one of my own character cards? What's more, this character card can be reborn through the resurrection module, so the Cthulhu Run Game Hall will definitely add a restriction to this treasure, that is, only
Only NPCs can use it.
Therefore, if the speculation about this treasure is correct, then the NPCs who can use this treasure should be limited to a certain range - the leaders of the ten major forces of the public faction.
Of course, this range may be broadened, but it will not be broadened too much.
So the question is, will the leader of the public faction know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains?
Liu Xing estimated that it could not be the big families in the public faction, because this treasure would harm the family, so those big families should not be willing to destroy their own families... Although the Oda family and the Toyotomi family are still
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and can become one of the top ten forces of the Wu Family Faction and the Public Faction, but the reason why they are able to do this is actually to balance the balance between the family and the secret church.
Otherwise, the Oda family would not have made loud noises and light rains in dealing with the death of Oda Eiji.
So if nothing else happens, the person in charge of this treasure should be a senior person in a secret church.
"Then what should we do now? I think we still can't let this treasure fall into the hands of the public faction easily, otherwise we may lose without knowing how." Sun Huiwen asked.
Liu Xing thought for a while and said helplessly: "Then what else can we do? Of course we can only wait and see what happens. We will talk about it when the time comes. If there is a chance, we will stop the arson action of the public faction, or directly ambush
We'll wait outside until they take out the treasures, but it's definitely not enough for us alone."
Alice understood, nodded and said: "I have told Zhang Jingxu and the others about this possibility. If nothing else happens, Zhang Jingxu and the others should take action with us by then."
Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "Then let's continue having breakfast now. After breakfast, we will prepare and then go shopping in Nagoya Castle."
After eating breakfast, Alice specially prepared a loose dress for Liu Xing to cover up the fact that Liu Xing had lost his shadow.
Then, Liu Xing and others started their one-day trip to Nagoya, visiting various attractions under the control of the public faction.
So in the afternoon, Liu Xing and others arrived at Nagoya Castle.
The castle towers in the island country are basically the same. After all, the castle tower is the same as the castle in Europe. It is not only the residence of the local lord, but also a defensive fortress, so the standard adopted is a template with the highest defense power at the time, so
Except for the difference in the number of layers, there are basically only some detailed differences in other aspects.
The castle tower in Nagoya is as famous as the castle tower in Osaka, so Liu Xing, who had been to the Osaka castle tower several times before, quickly figured out the general structure of Nagoya Castle.
"Since no one discovered the secret room when Nagoya Castle was damaged and rebuilt, it means that this secret room should be underground. After all, the underground is also the safest place for the ancients. After all, rich people in ancient and modern times, at home and abroad,
They like to bury their gold and silver jewelry underground for later use." Liu Xing looked at his feet and said: "But we have now gone around the areas open to the public in Nagoya Castle, but we have not found any possible dangers.
Where you go down the aisle.”
Li Hanxing on the side nodded, holding his mobile phone and said: "That's right, I turned on the detector in my bag after entering Nagoya Castle, and I didn't find any secret rooms where we passed, and I didn't encounter anything.
Interference signal, so if our guess is not wrong, then there is only one possibility now, this secret room is not a secret room in the general sense."
