Liu Xing looked at the roll of parchment and knew that this roll of parchment most likely recorded magic or some way of worshiping evil gods. Therefore, Liu Xing felt that this roll of parchment should be from ancient times three hundred years ago.
Lord of the Castle, obtained from that secret society.
But now, Liu Xing is faced with a problem, that is, whether he can take this roll of parchment, because if nothing happens, this roll of parchment will definitely be an important prop in this Cthulhu group game, and it can even be said that
It is a key prop and directly affects the direction of the plot.
However, parchment paper that exudes an ominous aura gives people an extremely uncomfortable feeling. The only thing that can be done is to set up a sign next to the parchment with the slogan "Take it and throw it away".
.
Therefore, Liu Xing still felt a little guilty. After all, Liu Xing's knowledge of the Cthulhu Mythology was zero. If he rashly came into contact with a mythical item like parchment, it would be inevitable to lose his SAN value. What he was afraid of was that this roll of parchment would still be lost.
It comes with other damage effects, such as blindness, skin ulcers all over the body, loss of speech ability, etc. After all, if you want to get power beyond the world, you must pay a certain price, and Liu Xing doesn't want to become a blind monk here.
...
However, the current group running process has obviously reached the mid-to-late stage. It will not be long before Liu Xing and other players will have to face the BOSS directly, and this BOSS should be a magician.
Then, this roll of parchment may also be one of the BOSS's equipment, because in the context of the Cthulhu mythology, there is a clear difference between a magician casting spells with or without a magic book.
Therefore, if Liu Xing takes away this roll of parchment now, it will be equivalent to weakening the BOSS's combat effectiveness in disguise.
So, thinking of this, Liu Xing gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and took the roll of parchment in his hand.
The moment Liu Xing picked up the roll of parchment, he felt a chill invade his body and shuddered uncontrollably.
At this moment, kp004, who was happy with his misfortune, stood up and said, "When you pick up this roll of parchment, you feel a bone-chilling cold air coming out of the parchment and sweeping through your body. You feel a kind of chill in your body."
Unspeakable paralysis, so all your attributes are temporarily reduced by 10 points, lasting 1d10 hours, and because this situation beyond your imagination has occurred, your spirit has been greatly impacted, so you
A SAN value test will be carried out. If it succeeds, two SAN points will be deducted. If it fails, 1d6+2 SAN points will be deducted! So, let us make a pleasant SAN value test. I am really looking forward to making you crazy.
!”
When the player loses more than five SAN points at one time, he will fall into temporary madness and randomly choose one of ten symptoms, including hysteria, memory loss, dumbfounded and other symptoms.
Obviously, this time Liu Xing will lose at least two SAN points, and the maximum will lose eight SAN points.
"Then, let's get started." Liu Xing said resignedly.
There was a familiar sound of dice hitting the ground, and Liu Xing nervously waited for the result.
Time check, 1d10, 3.
The first thing to do was to conduct a time test regarding the temporary reduction of Liu Xing's attributes. The result was pretty good, only three hours, and the current time should be around 1:30, so before the castle lord returned to the castle and held a dinner party, Liu Xing
Properties can be restored and returned to their full glory.
But here comes the highlight.
Will, 69/70 (temporarily reduced by 10 points), successful.
Thanks to the goddess of dice for her blessing (definitely not a black box operation by the author!).
Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief, he almost failed.
kp004, on the other hand, said in a tone of hatred that iron cannot be made into steel, "What kind of crappy dice is this? I will replace it after this group run, and replace it with a lead-filled one."
Liu Xing felt as if he had heard some terrible news.
kp004 also realized that he had said something wrong, and immediately said with a smile: "Well, you are lucky. Although this supernatural situation caught you a little off guard, because you read a lot of supernatural novels, you quickly understood
After accepting this setting, I only lost two points of SAN value and gained two points of Cthulhu Mythology knowledge (Cthulhu Mythology knowledge generally cannot be obtained directly and can only be obtained after coming into contact with mythical creatures or mythical items.
, obtained during myth events, and how much knowledge of the Cthulhu Mythos will be obtained by lowering the SAN value. Of course, there will be special circumstances, which will not be listed here for the time being), but you also had auditory hallucinations just now, which makes you
I feel that the chill just now is probably just an hallucination caused by excessive stress, so please undergo a psychoanalysis. If the psychoanalysis is successful, 1d2 points of SAN value can be restored."
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect kp004 to have such an operation. In order to let himself ignore those explosive remarks before, he was willing to let himself go through a psychoanalysis to restore his SAN value. And generally speaking, psychoanalysis
If he succeeds, he should be able to know that he has not heard any auditory hallucinations, and the chill just now is not a hallucination, so the SAN value cannot be restored. However, Liu Xing's psychoanalysis has 70 points, and the success rate is definitely higher than the failure rate.
That's why kp004 made such a strange test in order to seal his mouth.
But this is a good thing for Liu Xing. After all, the SAN value can be reduced as much as possible.
kp004 saw that Liu Xing had no objection, so he immediately conducted the test.
Psychoanalysis, 29/70, success.
Restore SAN value,1d2,2.
Liu Xing was as lucky as ever. Not only did he get the parchment this time, but he also didn't have to spend any SAN points.
"You analyzed your mental condition and found that you were a little nervous because you sneaked into this study room secretly. Therefore, you thought that the events of your previous birth were just your hallucinations. However, because your SAN value has recovered,
So I didn't get the knowledge of Cthulhu." kp004 said at the end, already using a slightly threatening tone.
Liu Xing naturally understood the implications of kp004's words, so he nodded with a smile, indicating that he and kp004 had reached an ulterior deal.
Liu Xing carefully put the parchment in his hand into his pocket, then looked around the study, found that there was nothing worth exploring, and left the study.
Of course, Liu Xing did not forget to restore the study door to its original state as much as possible to ensure that the castle lord would not be returned. He noticed something strange at a glance.
Now, Liu Xing saw that it was still early, so he planned to go to the room where the castle lord's daughter was, because Liu Xing felt that the castle lord's daughter was probably an important NPC, and the castle lord was out.
When visiting friends, you should probably bring your daughter with you.
Ever since, Liu Xing stood outside the castle lord's daughter's room.
