Liu Xing thought for a while and said, "Then I will reply to the bloody ghoul now and ask how long it plans to wait before entering this underground temple."
"Then we will definitely have to wait until we finish working on the Gongwu Battle module before we can leave for South America to help the Scarlet Ghoul deal with this matter..."
Before Zhang Jingxu finished speaking, Liu Xing remembered the mission that Tanegashima Teruyoshi issued to him, so he said with some embarrassment: "Well, there is one thing I forgot to tell you in advance, that is, I am going to Shimazu's house
When I was controlling the power company, I met a core member of the Tanegashima family, or a strong competitor for the next head of the Tanegashima family, and he issued a special task to me, although the specific content of the task has not been stated clearly.
, but it is not difficult to guess that this mission is for us to help him become the new head of the Tanegashima family."
"Then go help him. After all, many friends lead to many paths. You must know that the Tanegashima family can be said to be one of the most important affiliated families of the Shimadzu family, so it is a good choice for us to make friends with the Tanegashima family. However,
Judging from the tone of your words Liu Xing, this mission should not start until after the Battle of Gongwu, right?" Yin En said with a smile.
Liu Xing nodded, and first told everyone the current true situation of the Tanegashima family, "To sum up, the current Tanegashima family is too real in name. If the relationship between the Tanegashima family and the Shimadzu family is ignored, then
The Tanegashima family is just an ordinary family; but a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The Tanegashima family seems to have something, so my idea is to do this task, but the reason why this task was chosen by Cthulhu
The group game lobby is classified as a special mission because it is indeed very special."
"To put it simply, in addition to getting this special mission from relevant members of the Tanegashima family, you can also land on Tanegashima within a few days after the Battle of Komu and you can automatically receive this special mission.
However, I am not sure whether these two different ways of receiving tasks will lead to two different plot lines. For example, players who receive tasks from relevant personnel will be directly involved in the vortex of the fight for the family leader, and automatically receive the tasks.
Players on the mission can only wait for opportunities on the periphery."
After listening to Liu Xing's description of this special task, everyone present could not help but fall into deep thought, because the conditions for receiving this special task were indeed very "interesting".
After a while, Ding Kun couldn't help but said: "This special mission still gives too little information, so I think if we want to participate in this special mission, we can divide it into two with the advantage of numbers.
, Liu Xing, you took Zhang Jingxu and Zhang Wenbing to find Tanegashima Huiyi to receive the mission, while others and I waited until the time was right before we landed on Tanegashima, and at this right time, no other players would land on the island.
when."
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Brother Ding, what you mean is that you plan to take Yin En and the others to avoid the sight of other players, and then disguise themselves as NPCs to participate in this special mission?"
"Yes, I think the main reason why this special mission will give players two different ways to participate is to let the players make their own trade-offs - do they want freedom or more intelligence? Obviously, Liu
After you enter Tanegashima, you will most likely be invited to the Tanegashima family's territory as soon as possible. At that time, due to the intensifying dispute between the heads of the family, you will have to stay in the eye of the storm to continue your mission, and this storm
Although the eyes are safe, if you dare to take one more step outside, you may be sent directly to the sky by the storm."
"And the eye of the storm is equivalent to a well, so although you who are in the eye of the storm can directly participate in the battle for the head of the family and obtain all kinds of important information at the first time, you are still looking at the sky from the well and cannot get a full picture;
As for us players on the periphery, although we can only hear some gossip, we can grasp the overall trend of the family head dispute. For example, we can see that a certain force has sent a few more reinforcements, or that a certain force has sent people outside to ask for help.
Yes, so what we see may not be as accurate as yours, but we must see more than you."
"In addition, Liu Xing, you also said that Tanegashima is a big family, and there are members distributed throughout Tanegashima. At the same time, these different strongholds also undertake different tasks. For example, some strongholds are only for residential use.
Some of the strongholds are factories and the like, so Liu Xing and you should have entered the headquarters of the Tanegashima family, and then you should not be able to get out. Besides, except that we cannot go to the headquarters, we should be able to come and go freely from other strongholds.
Yes, this is another big gap between us."
Having said this, Ding Kun pointed to Mosin Nagant beside him and said: "So I think that if we really want to participate in this special mission, then the best choice is to divide the troops into two groups and use those of us who are good at fighting.
Wandering around the periphery, you can escort or kill certain NPCs when necessary; while Liu Xing and you civilian workers will assist that Tanegashima Teruichi at the headquarters and provide us with relevant intelligence."
"I agree with Brother Ding, but do we really want to participate in this special module? I think this special mission is like a Venus flytrap, and NPCs such as Tanegashima Teruichi are the scent it exudes, attracting us profit-seeking people.
Players enter it, and then it snaps shut, and none of us can escape."
As Li Hanxing spoke, he gestured with the big mouth of the flytrap with both hands, "When I was in the real world, I once participated in a confrontation module that was full of malice. To put it simply, there was a big family.
The patriarch was suddenly critically ill, and his three sons all had their own strengths and weaknesses, so he couldn't choose who would succeed him as the patriarch, so he asked his three sons to find two partners to join them.
Faced with the difficulties he raised, this was obviously a test of the three sons' ability to make friends."
"Guess what, this competition was held in the hometown of this big family, which is a small village near the seaside. It seemed that the deep divers were going to appear, so other players and I kept an eye on it.
As a result, there was no player at the beginning of the plot, and the reason for his disappearance was that he was attacked by the deep divers. In this way, what was originally a 2v2v2 confrontation module was turned into a five-person cooperative survival module.
As a result, our team was destroyed as expected, and the reason for the team's destruction was that the winner was not determined within the specified time."
"Huh? In that case, this is actually a confrontation module. Only the winning group of players can escape?"
Ding Kun touched his chin and said: "If I guessed correctly, this big family is a group of deep diver hybrids, and the reason why the old family leader gave up his position is because he wants to return to the sea; as for why he wants his sons to find friends.
Helping compete for the position of head of the family, I think the main reason why the deep diver hybrids stay on land is that they need to deal with humans, so it is very important whether the human friends the sons find are good or not."
"That's right, we unlucky players are just a group of tools... So I very much suspect that the Tanegashima family may be trying to reorganize the family, so they went behind the Shimazu family's back to contact some secret churches, so they were wrong.
Some ‘voting certificates’.”
Speaking of this, Li Hanxing said with a smile: "I also know that there are some conspiracy theories when I say this, but we cannot rule out the possibility that the Tanegashima family will seek medical treatment indiscriminately because of the sudden illness.
Integrating the major forces in the island country also promotes each force to reorganize its own internal affairs. Because there are usually no major events that require everyone to participate together, so some people who are just trying to catch fish may not be able to do anything.
Can be found out."
"Yes, for the Shimazu family, no matter what the outcome of the Kōwu War is, they can use incompetence as an excuse to terminate their affiliation with the Tanegashima family. In this way, there will be no need for blood transfusions to the Tanegashima family.
After all, the current Tanegashima family is not helpful to the Shimadzu family at all, they are just a hindrance."
Although he said that, Liu Xing still said hesitantly: "However, the rewards given by this special mission are not bad, and Tanegashima is right behind the Shimadzu family, so I think unless the Tanegashima family is sure to turn against the guests,
Let the Shimazu family be their vassal, or simply annex the Shimazu family, otherwise the Tanegashima family should not dare to live casually, after all, the Shimazu family will only give up on a Tanegashima family that is completely useless to them."
As soon as Liu Xing said this, everyone present fell silent again.
After a while, Zhang Jingxu shook his head and said: "Since the degree of freedom in this special task is so high, even if you accept the task, you can quit without paying any price, so let's take it step by step first, but Liu Xing, you can
I have to be busy. If I don’t have anything else to do, go and communicate with Tanegashima Teruyuki.”
No problem." Liu Xing nodded and said: "Then let's talk about the Kamakura family. Now we have two intersections with the Kamakura family. One is the northern business office of Nagoya Electric Power Company, and the Kamakura family
The person in charge of this business hall of the Kamakura family is also a good classmate of Onikawa Koo; the other one is even more interesting. It seems reasonable that the Kamakura family would attack an ordinary family for money. It may be someone
A decision made by a marginal member to make money for himself, but I think this matter may not be that simple."
"Is it because of the mirror in Sakai Shangcun?"
As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, Yin En continued: "The mirror world is not uncommon, but I have never heard of the dead mirror world. And according to Sakai Masachi, the reason why this mirror world has changed
The main reason why it is like this now is because of the intervention of players; but as far as I know, even the first batch of players to enter the Cthulhu Run game lobby, unless they encounter an extremely rare time-travel module, or like us
Otherwise, it would be impossible to go back to the previous dream module and do it decades ago."
"That's right, the first batch of players to enter the Cthulhu Run game lobby, the modules they participated in basically took place around the year 2000. After all, rumors about the destruction of the world in the millennium were rampant at that time, so even if
In the real world, there were many secret churches that took the opportunity to cause trouble at that time, but there are really no modules that go forward." Zhang Jingxu touched his chin, frowned and said: "So kill the player in the mirror world in Sakai Shangcun.
, it should be because of a time-travel module that went back decades ago, but I’m still curious about how they made a mirror world die.”
"Yes, the mirror world is equivalent to a transfer station in the parallel world. Some powerful beings can complete rapid transfer through the mirror world. From this, we can see that the mirror world is quite stable. After all, there are some old rulers.
When a person comes to the real world, he can break the real space within a certain range... Of course, powerful mythical creatures like the Star Familiar can also break time and space."
Zhang Wenbing showed a recalling expression and continued: "I remember that the Huaxia Dao Sect also tried to destroy the Mirror World, but it took a lot of effort and failed... So I suddenly suspected that those players were us."
When Zhang Wenbing said this, Liu Xing and others were shocked, because no one expected Zhang Wenbing to say such a thing.
"Don't be too surprised, because I'm not just talking nonsense." Zhang Wenbing shook his head and said seriously: "I believe that everyone, as an old player in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, has discovered Cthulhu.
When Lu Paotuan Game Hall arranges modules for players, most of them will follow the standard of 'cause and effect'. This means that the foreshadowing of the previous modules is likely to appear in the next module, and at the same time, it will
The Sulu Running Group Game Hall is quite scientific at certain times.”
"science?"
Looking at Liu Xing and others who were still confused, Zhang Wenbing directly expressed his thoughts, "Well, it's more of a paradox than science. I believe you all have heard of my grandmother.
Paradox - If a time traveler goes back in time and kills his grandmother, then it stands to reason that he will not be able to be born in the future, so how can he kill his grandmother in the past if he cannot be born?"
"I understand, Zhang Wenbing, you are planning to use paradox to deny the existence of the mirror world. Then this mirror world will be like a computer trapped in an infinite loop, which will crash directly because it cannot process repeated data!"
Liu Xing slapped his thigh and suddenly realized: "The current world in the mirror is indeed not completely dead, but is stuck at one point in time as if it was frozen!"
