"I also think there is something wrong with that Night Demon, or that it is not a Night Demon at all. After all, Tanegashima Teruichi was in absolute darkness at that time. Who could be seen there who opened the pot for him?"
Ding Kun took a sip of water and continued: "But I'm still curious about who dares to cheat under the banner of Night Demon? And they don't seem to want anything from the Tanegashima family?"
"According to our previous speculation, this group of people should be related to Ii Naoley and the others, because this group of people also took out a shining cubehedron, and so far I have heard that these two groups have taken out
There have been flashy Cube Trioctahedrons, and they all seem to be gold versions, so they may be the same group of people... By the way, I suddenly remembered a question, that is, what are Ii Naoraku and his group doing now?
?”
Liu Xing stood up, looked at Shimazu Hiromichi and said, "No, I have to ask Shimazu Hiromichi now to see if he knows about the recent situation of Ii Naoraku and others."
"You have to ask." Yin En nodded and said, "Now I am beginning to suspect that Ii Naoraku and others are also on Tanegashima. Anyway, Kagoshima City is only so far away from Tanegashima, so there is no need to send a few people.
It’s quite easy to get here.”
Ever since, Liu Xing went to Shimazu Hiromichi and raised his own questions.
"Naole Ii and the others have been quite honest recently and are still doing their own business there, although their business has never been good."
Shimazu Hiromichi held a piece of chocolate and said while eating: "Actually, I was quite surprised, because Ii Naoraku and his group were not the kind of peaceful masters at first glance, so I had already arranged a large number of people to deal with them.
I was conducting surveillance and was ready to attack them at any time, but they didn't leave me any chance, so I could only live in peace with them and continue to live in vain."
"Oh, it seems that Ii Naoraku and the others can really endure it. There has been no new action after such a long time. However, there is a dreamland door under the shop, so I don't know if Ii Naoraku and the others are there.
People in the fantasy world do things secretly." Liu Xing said with a frown.
At this time, Ichijo Masaga who was sitting next to him suddenly said, "Naoraku Ii? Are you talking about the traitor who broke away from the Ii family? I have met him several times before and worked with him several times."
Liu Xing looked at Ichijo Masaga with some surprise, not expecting that he could be related to Ii Naoraku.
"Actually, the fact that I can get to know Naoraku Ii is due to the fact that both of us are rebellious sons of the family, so we got to know each other naturally. At that time, I even helped Naoraku Ii a few times, but Naoraku Ii
He had a little too much self-esteem, so after reluctantly accepting my two offers of help, he never asked me to borrow money... Of course, he still owes me 100,000 island national currency. You know at that time
One hundred thousand island national currency is not a small amount."
Ichisumasa showed an expression recalling those years, "Fortunately, I still had some property at the time, so I didn't really need Ii Naoraku to pay back the money, but Ii Naoraku would occasionally pay me back some money, and then he suddenly
I disappeared. At that time, I thought it was because he thought he could no longer pay back the money, so he had to escape to live elsewhere. Although Ii Naoraku was indeed a good friend of mine, I was considered careless at that time.
He was a heartless master, and he was addicted to eating, drinking and having fun, so he soon forgot about Nao Raku Ii."
"But I don't know how long it took, but one day I saw some gift boxes at home. They were gifts sent by various people on my birthday, because the things inside were nothing more than all kinds of luxuries that were not worthy of the name.
So I was too lazy to open those gift boxes and just found a room to pile them in. I had nothing to do that day, and the weather was too bad to go out to play, so I opened those gift boxes, and it turned out that Ii Naoko was happy
The gift box surprised me very much.”
"As I said before, Ii Naole was very poor at that time. I usually took him to eat and drink. I had one set of clothes and he had another set, so at the beginning I thought
The gift from Ii Naoraku might be a bit cold, so we didn’t open his gift at that time. But after I opened the gift box from Ii Naoraku, I found that he actually gave me a golden egg made of pure gold.
It's about the size of a fist, which shocked me, because the value of this golden egg exceeds the 100,000 yuan of island currency I borrowed from him."
"So at that time, I thought that Ii Naoraku used this golden egg to pay off my debt, and then silently chose to leave and start a new life elsewhere. However, I soon realized that something was wrong.
Because I was very close to Naoraku Ii at that time, so although I cannot say that I knew everything about Naoraku Ii, I can still say that I knew a lot about him, such as his schedule for the week, so I can be sure that
There is no way Ii Naoraku could have collected the money to buy me this golden egg without going astray."
"Oh, to put it this way, Ii Naoraku had already embraced a new thigh at this time, so after returning the favor to Mr. Ichijo, he chose to go and serve the thigh."
As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, he saw Gu Muming walking over.
"Are you talking about Nao Raku Ii? I know this guy too."
Do you know him too?
Liu Xing looked at Gu Muming even more surprised, because Liu Xing really didn't expect that Gu Muming would also know Ii Naoraku. You must know that Gu Muming had also said before that his true form, the Lord of Kuchiki, was imprisoned on Hyakki Island.
, and it usually doesn’t leave Hyakki Island at will, so how did Ii Naoraku know it?
"Yes, Ii Naoraku has been to Hyakki Island, and I happened to be the one to receive him, because at that time Ii Naoraku represented a powerful existence codenamed King, and came to Hyakki Island to discuss business with us.
Knowing that this guy with the codename King is very powerful, I conservatively estimate that he must be at least at the level of an old ruler, or that he is an old ruler. In short, we at Hyakki Island do not dare to neglect Ii Naoraku, even if the
He is just an ordinary person."
When Gu Muming mentioned "King", Liu Xing noticed that Gu Jing Wubo's original expression changed, and a trace of emotion called "fear" appeared.
It seems that this "king" is indeed a very terrifying existence, and can actually scare even the Lord of Kuchiki.
However, it is worth noting that the "king" in Gu Muming's mouth is the king among the kings of Zhou, Wu and Zheng. The king is used as a surname, not as a noun.
So there is an old ruler named Wang?
Although this sounds a bit outrageous, after all, the Old Ones in the Cthulhu Run game all use Western names. After all, the Cthulhu Mythology originated from the West, and the background is also a Western work, so this is important.
It’s normal for the character’s name to be a Western name.
However, in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, because there is a need to supplement regional settings such as China that have almost no appearance in the original work, in addition to original mythical creatures, original Old Ones also appeared, and these Old Ones
People who follow the local customs also have Chinese names. For example, in the deep mountains and old forests of the Hengduan Mountains, there is an old ruler named Shede who is sealed, and his body looks like half a snake.
That's right, it's half a snake.
The ability of this old ruler named Sheshe can be said to be very strange, because other old rulers have mastered the powerful power of overwhelming mountains and seas, and the ability of Sheshe is "equivalent exchange".
The more you give, the more you get.
So when he was sealed by the local ancient god, he exchanged half of his body for his freedom, and exchanged the price of "not doing evil" for the promise of "not being sealed" by the local ancient god.
Of course, the ability of Sheshe can not only be used on oneself, but also on others when they are completely relaxed. Therefore, many NPCs and players are now trying to find Sheshe and borrow its "equivalent exchange" ability.
, so Sheshe is also known as one of the friendliest Old Ones.
In addition to being willing to give up, Liu Xing also knew that there was an old ruler sealed in Shu—a large beetle with an unknown metal shell that would randomly appear in one of the four major rivers in Shu every year. However,
Under normal circumstances, it just lies on the bottom of the river to rest, so there are very few legends about it over the years. As for its ability, it can switch between offense and defense, allowing the metal shell that was originally the core of defense to instantly turn into various colors of iron.
The concealed weapon is launched.
The difference from Sheshe is that he refuses to communicate with anyone from the beginning to the end, but his intelligence level can be found through observation to be very normal.
This is a cold Old One.
As for this "king", Liu Xing has never heard of such a person, but from the fact that his/her/its surname is Wang, we can draw an unreliable guess, that is, this old ruler is very
Maybe it's someone named Wang.
But having said that, although the surname Wang is a famous surname in Chinese history, except for Wang Mang and some unknown kings of small countries, there is no real emperor named Wang; however, the Wang family is very important in the history of China.
, there are quite a few big and powerful families, but unfortunately, these big families have seen you build a tall building, and have seen your building collapse.
"This king's ability is very familiar. It can give the person he chooses a combat power bonus and can be controlled at an ultra-remote distance. Therefore, we at Hyakki Island still value the king's spokesperson very much, so it didn't take long for our Hyakki Island to
Shima has reached a cooperation with Shimazu Naoraku, that is, under normal circumstances, the two parties are in a cooperative relationship and are not allowed to fight each other, so if we can really foresee Wang's spokesperson, then maybe we can cooperate with him."
Regarding the terrifying existence named Wang, Shimazu Hiromichi's understanding of it can be described as very little. In other words, Shimazu Hiromichi had never heard of an old ruler named Wang before.
"As for Shimazu Hiromichi, I could smell a strange smell on his body at that time, which covered up all the smells on his body. This also let me know the power of the king, because I wanted to completely and naturally cover up a person.
Even if I try for a hundred years, I may not be able to detect the aura on a human body, so this makes me sure that the king should be an existence at the level of the old rulers."
Gu Muming said with a sigh: "But I have been trying to understand this king, but everything about him seems to be shrouded in fog. I only know that he is called Wang, and I know nothing about the rest.
As for the spokespersons such as Ii Naoraku, they simply followed the king's orders and have never seen the king's true body."
This is indeed mysterious enough.
At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly had a bold idea in his mind, that is, he had underestimated the "King"'s situation, because the "King" might not be the ruler of the old days, but Aoguan
The brothers and sisters of the sea, one of the clones of Nyarlathotep.
The first reason why Liu Xing thinks this way is that the "Night Demon" mentioned by Tanegashima Teruyoshi is a shiny cube-shaped octahedron. Logically speaking, the only people who have the ability to program the Night Demon in the module should be with the Night Demon.
Brothers and sisters of the same level.
Next is Ii Naoraku's group of people and mythical creatures. Although it looks like a bit of a hodgepodge, if you look at it from the perspective of the final battle, you will find that the configuration of this team is quite reasonable, at least more reliable than the Night Demon.
There are many scores, and the writing can also explain that after Ii Naoraku and his party arrived in Kagoshima City, they began to sell fish honestly to make a living, even though they had nothing to do.
In addition, the appearance of this "king" is also the focus of Liu Xing's suspicion, because before this Liu Xing and others suspected that it was a new old ruler, but before this Liu Xing and others had not heard of it
There is such an old ruler in the island country; but if the identity of the "king" is replaced by one of Nyarlathotep's clones here, everything will be easily explained.
"King, you have actually seen me before."
Ao Guanhai's voice suddenly sounded, "But I'm sure Liu Xing, you can't guess that Wang is the NPC in that module."
"Huh?!" Liu Xing looked confused.
Ao Guanhai smiled and continued: "I was not the only one who liked Liu Xing back then. Wang also thought you were a very good spokesperson candidate. However, I had already taken the lead, so Wang chose to give up."
Is there such a thing?
After Liu Xing was silent for a moment, he said seriously: "If I guessed correctly, the module of Wang Dang NPC should take place in China. After all, his name is very Chinese... So this is what I am experiencing.
Is that the mysterious old Taoist priest that I met when I was building a module for the Harvest Shrine?"
"Congratulations on your wrong answer. That mysterious old Taoist priest was actually arranged by me on purpose." Ao Guanhai replied with a smile.
