After confirming that Yin Shang was indeed Chinese, Liu Xing and others believed his words a little more, because if it weren't for the Gongwu War, few players would go to foreign countries for modding, especially in
China, which is already rich in resources, has many modules for players to participate in... Of course, this excludes the fact that some players themselves are doing modules for the first time in foreign countries in the real world.
Players like Liu Xing who are sent abroad to participate in the module as soon as they arrive are actually very rare, so now Liu Xing doubts that he has been Austrian the moment he entered the Cthulhu Run game lobby.
Guan Hai was targeted, so he was arranged to participate in the castle module, and Ao Guanhai's purpose of doing this was to give himself a chance to get in touch with the bloody ghoul.
After all, judging from the current situation, the Scarlet Ghoul should be considered a very important NPC in this parallel world, because it has the possibility of becoming the Old One... although it is very low.
Of course, the Scarlet Ghoul is more likely to become a being of Dagon's level, and this is already pretty good.
"Forget it, let's arrange a private room for Yin Shang later. Let him eat and drink well these two days. We will send him away after the Gongwu War. This is the only thing we can do as fellow villagers.
." Zhang Jingxu sighed and continued: "But we still can't let down our guard. We still need to do the monitoring we need to do, lest Yin Shang is really an undercover agent of the Chawu family; speaking of the Chawu family, I quite said this today.
Rumor has it that the head of the Chaya family is still vacant."
"Vacancy? This shouldn't be the case."
Liu Xing said with some confusion: "These older families in the island country attach great importance to inheritance, and they will not hesitate to let their son-in-law inherit the family, because they don't want the family to die, so under normal circumstances, as long as there is
If there is a suitable candidate, then the Chaya family is unlikely to leave the position of head of the family vacant; if there is a dispute with the new head of the family, then the new head of the family will be allowed to control the family first, and the competitors will come forward to attack later."
"That's true, but the Chaya family is not a serious big family. After all, at the beginning, the Chaya family was just a business family. They slowly gained social status by working for the Tokugawa family. But the Chaya family
In essence, the family has not completely abandoned its roots as a businessman, so the succession of the head of the Chaya family does not use the eldest son inheritance system, but the competition for superiority system."
Zhang Jingxu thought for a while before continuing: "As far as I know, the Chawu family will start to select suitable members from the family members to become the heirs of the family after the head of the family determines that he can no longer effectively manage and take charge of family affairs. In general,
In this case, there will be at least three heirs, and sometimes more than ten; then after it is determined that no heir chooses to quit automatically, multiple tasks will be released for the heirs to complete, and finally who is the head of the family will be determined based on the overall performance."
"Isn't this the process by which a company selects a general manager from its old employees? It seems that the Chaya family really has not forgotten its original intention."
Yin En touched his chin and said seriously: "It seems that the Chawu family is planning to use this battle as the task of selecting a new head of the family. However, this is indeed a very good idea, because a weaker person
The head of the family is very likely to cause the family to fall apart or the family to fall; from this point of view, the young master of the tea house who suddenly emerged in the public faction and the third young master that Yin Shang followed should not be the same person."
"I think that the third young master decided to take risks because his competitors were in the limelight, and directly and completely controlled his subordinates to do some very dangerous things. After all, his subordinates are not fools. Some of them are
They won't do it if it looks like it will lead to death, but it will be of great help to the third young master's plan."
Zhang Jingxu shook his head and said with a smile: "So for an ambitious person like the Third Young Master, tools without self-thought are the best, so he uses that special drug to control his men.
And I think the side effects of this drug may be very serious, and it may kill the person who takes it in three to five days.”
Liu Xing very much agreed with Zhang Jingxu’s idea.
At the same time, Liu Xing suddenly thought of something, "Wait a minute, since there are gliders in the area that Yin Shang is responsible for, and then the third young master of the Chawu family has turned all his people in that area into walking zombies who can only obey orders."
, then isn’t this the Reiwa version of Kamikaze?”
Hearing what Liu Xing said, Zhang Jingxu and others were stunned, and then showed a solemn expression.
Although many fanatic believers in the secret church are no longer afraid of death, the sanity of these fanatic believers is generally not high. Therefore, although they are very fanatical and willing to die as martyrs at any time, their crazy thinking does not allow them to do so.
To do some complicated things, it is no problem to let them charge in a hail of bullets, but it is not easy to let them rush to the enemy in a glider, especially when the approximate range must not be wrong.
Therefore, pure tools are easier to use. You only need to set up the general operation process, and they can launch attacks fully automatically.
"If I hadn't already known these things, I really wouldn't have thought that anyone would use kamikaze tactics in the Gongwu War, because for most families and secret churches, since they have the manpower and material resources to use kamikaze tactics, then they
There are more cost-effective attack methods; and for those small families or secret churches who want to use kamikaze tactics to achieve a certain effect, they will definitely be seriously injured or even disbanded on the spot.
After all, there are only so many of them."
"So only a family like the Chaya family, which has a lot of money and doesn't treat its subordinates as human beings, can do such a thing. No, it should be said that only the third young master of the Chaya family would do this, because everyone else will cherish their reputation."
Having said this, Ding Kun stood up and said: "I will ask Yin Shang now to determine how many gliders there are in the area where he was before and where they are, so that I can determine the possible attack targets of these gliders.
.”
"I'll go with you." Yin En stood up and said, "Yin Shang and I should have been a family five hundred years ago, so he might give me a face and tell us more things."
So, Yin En and Ding Kun went to "chat" with Yin Shang.
"But under normal circumstances, these gliders should not be able to fly over our heads. After all, our location will be blown up in vain." Liu Xing said with a smile: "By the way, where are Mai Yuqiang and Dio going?
Now, I haven’t seen them all day?”
In the "Chess and Cards Activity Center", Liu Xing even saw Sawada Yayin, whom he had not seen for a long time, but Mai Yuqiang and Dio never showed up.
"Oh, wasn't Mai Yuqiang controlled by Cthulhu's clone on Mount Fuji some time ago? So he went to revisit his old place when he had nothing to do, and then Dio followed him when he had nothing to do; but Liu Xing
You can rest assured that Mount Fuji is now a safe zone. We and the public faction can send people to the mountain to check out the points. So as long as Mai Yuqiang and the others don't encounter Cthulhu's clones again, there should be no problem. And judging from the time,
They should be back soon."
It turned out that Cao Cao was about to arrive, and within a few minutes Mai Yuqiang and Dio came back.
And they also brought back a middle-aged man who was in a coma.
"What's happening here?"
Liu Xing looked at Mai Yuqiang and Dior with some confusion, "You guys went out for an outing, why did you bring back someone?"
Mai Yuqiang shrugged and said with some embarrassment: "Well, this person was actually knocked unconscious by me, because when I returned to the previous cave, I didn't go deep enough to find that there was no road ahead, so I
I turned around and tried to get back to the ground, but I met him suddenly out of nowhere at a corner, so I punched him subconsciously and knocked him out, and then I had no choice but to bring him back."
"Wait, why did you bring him back now? He is either a member of our Wu family faction or a member of the public family faction next door, so no matter where he is, you can bring him to the foot of the mountain.
You can leave that hotel by hanging a sign claiming it."
The hotel Li Hanxing mentioned was the place where Liu Xing and others stayed when they first came to Mount Fuji. Currently, this hotel has become a joint office of the public faction and the samurai faction. Its main function is to win the battle when there is a conflict on Mount Fuji.
One party can leave the loser at the office and report it as lost and found... After all, some secret churches and families had conflicts a long time ago, so if they meet on Mount Fuji now, there will definitely be a fight.
Of course, you can fight on Mount Fuji these two days, but you can't use heavy blows. If you really hit the opponent hard and kill the opponent, then you have to pray that no one else sees it, otherwise you will be jointly investigated.
The staff at the department will take it down directly and finally finalize a suitable compensation plan before you can escape unscathed. Otherwise, you will have to pay for one life.
But if you can defeat the pursuers sent by the joint office, then you can do whatever you want.
In the same way, if you can run away, nothing will happen to you.
Therefore, it stands to reason that Mai Yuqiang should put the knocked unconscious person in the joint office and then leave directly.
"This man's situation is quite special because I know him."
At this time Dior suddenly said: "This man's name is Yin Luyang, he is a professor of occultism at Miskatonic University, and his father is my college classmate and good friend. During the time I stayed in Manchester, I
I often exchange letters with Yin Luyang’s father, which is one of the few ways I communicate with the outside world. Back to the topic, the reason why I came to Duwang Town to live in seclusion was actually the advice given to me by Yin Luyang, because he knew that Duwang
The situation in the town.”
"Yin Luyang is the youngest occult professor at Miskatonic University. Because his ancestor is one of the founders of Miskatonic University, Yin Luyang can be regarded as having a family background and has been exposed to various occult books since he was a child; however,
Half a year ago, Yin Luyang suddenly disappeared in the laboratory of Miskatonic University. According to the investigation, he was probably transported to other places because he activated a magic circle. After that, there was no news about Yin Luyang.
.”
Another one named Yin.
Liu Xing did not expect that in just a few hours, two players named Yin would be sent to him.
Although Yin Luyang's background sounds very much like an NPC, after all, there are too few players who start at Miskatonic University, let alone his identity as a professor of occult science.
But Liu Xing can be sure that Yin Luyang is a player, but he himself is at least a player in the Hounds of Tindalos area, and then used the highest level character card to "refresh" himself to Miskatonic University, and then
The Sulu Running Group Game Hall compiled a family tree for him to make his identity reasonable.
As for why Liu Xing is so sure, it is because according to the setting of the Cthulhu Mythology, Miskatonic University was established in the seventeenth century, and the "Lighthouse of the World" would not be established until more than a hundred years ago.
However, because many settings of the Cthulhu Mythos are relatively general, for example, Miskatonic University did not mention who the founders were, so the Cthulhu Run Game Hall created an original version of this, and in the official setting
The founders were an Englishman and a Frenchman, who were archaeologists and mystics respectively.
Therefore, Yin Luyang's ancestors obviously appeared because of Yin Luyang's appearance. This is the chicken before the egg - because of Yin Luyang, Yin Luyang's ancestors were born.
However, I don’t know if Yin Luyang participated in the Gongwu Battle.
Although Liu Xing and others tried to make Yin Luyang wake up, after trying physical, chemical, and even magic methods, they could not make Yin Luyang wake up. However, judging from various vital signs, Yin Luyang did not have any major problems.
"Should we send him to confinement as well, or should we send him directly to a nearby hospital for treatment?"
Liu Xing said this, but in fact he knew very well that the reason why Yin Luyang was unconscious was actually because Yin Luyang was not in the Cthulhu Running Team game hall, so in order to avoid "Yin Luyang" from meddling in the battle of Gongwu, he
He was injured by a stray bullet on the battlefield, so the Cthulhu Running Team game hall simply asked Mai Yuqiang to knock him out, and then arranged for him to become an old acquaintance of Dio, so that "Yin Luyang" could be in a safe place.
He would sleep there, wait until the Battle of Gongwu was over, then wake up again, and finally go to the location of the next module in good health, waiting for the arrival of Yin Luyang.
