Although Liu Xing vaguely guessed an old ruler, because this old ruler is a relatively unpopular old ruler in the Cthulhu mythology, Liu Xing could not think of this old ruler for a while.
The name of the Sun Ruler, and the specific abilities of this Old Sun Ruler.
Therefore, Liu Xing was not sure whether his idea was right or wrong, so he gave up thinking about this issue for the time being and collected more information first.
After breakfast, Liu Xing went to the meeting alone and headed to Hu Li's clothing store.
But when Liu Xing walked to the door of Hu Li's clothing store, he began to hesitate. After all, although you can resurrect from the dead in this module, in the end no one wants to die, and Liu Xing
I still have lingering fears about my previous death.
So now Liu Xing is still very worried that Hu Li will kill him directly if he disagrees...
But the words had already been spoken, and Liu Xing felt that he could never break his promise and retreat, so Liu Xing gritted his teeth and walked into Hu Li's clothing store.
Hu Li's clothing store was open today, and Liu Xing saw several customers choosing clothes. After all, Hu Li's clothing store was the only one in Panlong Town, so business was still good.
However, Liu Xing did not see Hu Li on the first floor. He only saw a girl who seemed to be around 20 years old greeting customers. It seemed that this girl should be the waiter Hu Li hired.
This waiter looked pretty, and Liu Xing felt that she should be a normal person, not someone like Hu Li.
At this time, the waiter saw Liu Xing. After looking at Liu Xing carefully, he stepped forward and said to Liu Xing: "You must be Boss Hu's friend Mr. Meteor. Boss Hu has been waiting upstairs for a long time. Let's go."
When I see Mr. Meteor, I will tell you to go up directly."
The waiter said while pointing to the stairs.
Liu Xing nodded and did not speak. After all, although Liu Xing could talk to the waiter through mental communication, the waiter should be able to easily tell that what he spoke was not Chinese, and then he might be in trouble.
.
After all, this can be said to be a super power.
When Liu Xing walked to the second floor, Liu Xing suddenly remembered something, that is why Hu Li arranged for the waiter to wait for him downstairs, and he also knew that he would definitely come, not Zhang Jingxu and the others.
The most important thing is that Hu Li also described her appearance to the waiter, so the waiter could recognize her. This is very strange, or very scary, because at this point in time, Hu Li should
It’s because you don’t know yourself.
After all, according to Hu Li's self-report, the most she could do was discover the existence of her group through smell and monitor their movement route, but Liu Xing didn't think Hu Li could determine a person's image through smell.
So to sum up, Liu Xing feels that Hu Li at this point in time should have changed from Hu Li at the previous point in time.
However, this also made Liu Xing relieved, because judging from the current situation, Hu Li at this point in time was willing to sit down and have a good chat with him, otherwise he would not have specially arranged a waiter to receive him.
So, Liu Xing took a deep breath and stepped into Hu Li's house.
Because the last time he stepped into Hu Li's house, he immediately lost consciousness, so Liu Xing didn't know the specific furnishings in Hu Li's house. Now that he entered Hu Li's house this time, Liu Xing couldn't help but look around.
I want to see what Vixen's home would be like.
But Liu Xing soon became disappointed, because the layout of Hu Li's home was no different from that of ordinary people's homes, and it was even simpler. Except for some necessary furniture, there was nothing else, let alone any decorations.
At this time, Hu Li was sitting on the sofa in the hall, with a pot of tea on the coffee table in front of her.
Liu Xing immediately became vigilant. After all, he had learned from the past that this pot of tea might not taste good.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing sat down opposite Hu Li nervously, and made up his mind that I, Liu Xing, would die of thirst today. Even if I jumped from the third floor, I would not take a sip of the tea made by Hu Li.
Liu Xing felt that this was just a Hongmen banquet, and he had fallen into a trap.
Before Liu Xing could speak, Hu Li poured out a cup of tea and placed it in front of Liu Xing.
Seeing this, Liu Xing quickly shook his head and said with a smile: "Miss Hu Li, you are too polite. I just had breakfast and drank a lot of soy milk. I am not too thirsty now."
Just as Liu Xing thought, Hu Li was not surprised that Liu Xing could communicate with her mentally, and instead acted as if it was natural.
"Mr. Meteor, are you worried that I will poison you again? This time, please feel free to drink it. I did not poison this pot of tea. After all, Mr. Meteor, you should know this. If
If I really want to harm you, poisoning is not the only method, and poisoning is not the best method."
Liu Xing nodded. Since Hu Li said so, he had to drink this cup of tea even if he didn't want to. After all, what Hu Li said was right. With Hu Li's ability, if she wanted to deal with herself, it would be
There is no need to poison, and there is no need to poison.
What's more, I came to negotiate with Hu Li today, so no matter what I said, I had to give Hu Li some face and drink this cup of tea.
I have to say that Liu Xing thinks the tea made by Hu Li is really fragrant.
After Liu Xing drank a cup of tea, he expressed the problem in his mind, "Miss Hu Li, logically speaking, you don't know about me. At most, you only know that I suddenly appeared and lived in Hu Cang's house.
They’re just outsiders, so?”
Hu Li understood what Liu Xing wanted to ask, and said with a smile: "Yes, just as you said, Mr. Meteor, logically speaking, I don't know your specific situation, but now that Panlong Town has lost its time and space,
If things get messed up, then some things can no longer be calculated using common sense."
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Hu Li to know so much at this point in time. She even knew about the time and space chaos in Panlong Town.
However, Liu Xing reacted quickly and guessed how Hu Li knew this.
If nothing else, after Hu Li killed herself at the previous point in time, she left the information on her body through some special means, and then when she was resurrected at this point in time, the information was left on her body.
The information was automatically passed to Hu Li at this point in time.
From this point of view, Hu Li has quite a few tricks up her sleeve.
Therefore, Liu Xing is even more afraid of Hu Li now.
Hu Li could naturally see Liu Xing's fear of her, so Hu Li said with a smile: "Mr. Meteor, I know that I did some not very good things to you and your friends at the previous time.
Things, but I believe Mr. Meteor, you should also be able to understand my good intentions, so Mr. Meteor, you shouldn’t blame me."
Since Hu Li had already said this, Liu Xing could only say against his will: "Of course, I know that the reason why Miss Hu Li killed us at the last point in time was because of the relationship between us.
There were some misunderstandings, and now the misunderstanding between you and us, Miss Hu Li, should be resolved."
Hu Li nodded and said: "Of course, after all, I will definitely not lie to you, so I now understand the current situation. I didn't expect that I would be trapped in a space where time and space are messed up.
If it hadn't been for Mr. Meteor's appearance, I would have been kept in the dark my whole life, but Mr. Meteor, do you want to know how I conveyed the information from the previous point in time to this point in time?"
Liu Xing was stunned at first. He didn't expect Hu Li to be willing to give him the truth. This surprised Liu Xing very much.
However, an accident was an accident, Liu Xing still nodded and said: "Of course I think I know."
Hu Li laughed, poured another cup of tea for Liu Xing, and said: "The reason is this, because our fox clan has a special spell, or a racial talent, which can transmit information in the form of smell.
And it can last for a long time, so at the previous point in time, I left some information on you, Mr. Meteor, so when I found out that you suddenly appeared at Hu Cang's house yesterday, I obtained that information."
"The reason why I tell you the truth now, Mr. Meteor, and I am willing to tell you this reason, Mr. Meteor, is because I want to cooperate with you, Mr. Meteor. After all, the ignorant are fearless. Before this, I didn't know what happened in Panlong Town.
I didn’t know that Panlong Town had fallen into time and space chaos, so I didn’t think there was any problem, but now that I know the truth, I feel that I must do something to change the current situation.”
"After all, I used to be able to live in this Panlong Town where time and space are confused, but now I don't want to live like this anymore, so I want to cooperate with you, Mr. Meteor. After all, we have the same goal.
And you should also know my abilities, and I will definitely not hold you back, so in the future, before every time and space chaos occurs, I hope that Mr. Meteor can come to me so that I can update you with information."
After listening to what Hu Li said, Liu Xing couldn't help but smell the smell on her body, and found that there was indeed a faint fragrance on her body.
Liu Xing thought for a while and said with a smile: "Since Miss Hu Li said so, then of course we are willing to cooperate with you, Miss Hu Li. After all, Miss Hu Li, you are more capable than us combined."
You must be strong, and you know more about the situation in Panlong Town than we do, but I want to ask, Miss Hu Li, will you stab me again just to leave information on me this time?"
Hu Li shook her head and said: "Of course not, I only need to touch your skin, Mr. Meteor. As for why I chose to kill you, Mr. Meteor, at the previous point in time, it was because of the
I want to test whether what you said, Mr. Meteor, is true. If you can come back from the dead and pass the information to me, it means that what you said, Mr. Meteor, is true. Otherwise, it means that what you said, Mr. Meteor, is true.
If you tell a lie, then you will not regret your death."
"As for the situation in Panlong Town, I do know much more than you, Mr. Meteor, and to be honest, when you passed the information to me, Mr. Meteor, I seemed to have recovered a lot of my memories.
What it means is that I now remember some things that will happen in the future. I have recovered some of my memories from 2000 years ago. From the current memory, I find that the monsters and monsters currently entrenched in Panlong Town should be
It only appeared after the time and space chaos in Panlong Town."
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Hu Li to start to regain her memory, but this can be considered a good thing...
"At first, I thought that the fanatic believer, like me, would be a monster in human form. After all, as far as I know, there are many monsters that can be resurrected from the dead, but according to my observation, that
The situation of the fanatic believer is very strange. He is indeed a human being, but his body has mutated to a certain extent. According to you humans, this fanatic believer is neither human nor ghost, and I can feel it.
There is a strange energy hidden in his body, I think this is the reason why he mutated and was able to come back from the dead."
Liu Xing nodded. According to Hu Li, this fanatic believer should have been injected with some kind of energy by the old ruler and transformed into an immortal body. This also made Liu Xing reconsider that person.
The identity of the Old Ones.
But since Hu Li is here now, Liu Xing thinks it would be better to ask Hu Li if she knows about the situation of the old ruler. After all, there is no future for just guessing here by yourself.
…
When he heard the name "Glaki", Liu Xing instantly recalled the relevant information about this old ruler, and confirmed that everything that happened in Panlong Town should be what Glaki did.
In the Cthulhu mythology, there are quite a lot of Old Ones. However, since there are famous Old Ones like Cthulhu and Hastur, then there are less famous ones like Glaaki.
The Great Old Ones.
In the setting of the Cthulhu Mythos, Gla'aki lives in a lake in the Severn Valley (a fictional region) near Brichester, England.
The setting of the Severn Valley is also very interesting, because the Severn Valley can be said to be a very rare gathering place of the Old Ones in the Cthulhu mythology, because most of the Old Ones live alone.
Each occupies an area, and there are at least five Old Ones dormant in the Severn Valley (the other Old Ones will appear later), and Glaki is one of them.
Glaaki has a title called "Dweller of the Lake". This is because Glaaki was sealed in a meteorite and came to the earth. After falling to the ground, the meteorite shattered, and Glaki was freed. Therefore, Glaki is
A rare free spirit among the Old Ones, so in addition to the lakes in the Severn Valley, there are also reports of the existence of Gla'aki in lakes in other parts of the world. This is the origin of Gla'aki's title of "Dweller of the Lake". However,
It's not clear which lake contains the true form of Glaaki.
Glaki's appearance is also very unique, resembling a giant three-eyed slug-like creature, with its whole body covered with metal spikes. These spikes may seem inorganic, but in fact these spikes have an organic structure.
, can grow when necessary, and these spikes are also hollow, because Glaaki needs to transport some unknown liquid through these spikes.
As a wise Old One, Glaaki is also one of the few Old Ones who will take the initiative to develop the existence of believers.
Like Cthulhu, Glaaki can influence humans through dreams, thereby attracting its chosen believers to the Severn Valley. However, Glaaki's conditions for selecting followers are rather special. Only those who wish to be immortal can become
Followers of Glachi.
Yes, Glaki can indeed make his followers immortal. As long as Glaki pierces the believers' bodies with the spikes on his body, and then injects some unknown liquid, he can make the believers immortal from now on, but Glaki can also do it.
Gain control over the body of the believer.
Therefore, these believers who have been "blessed" by Glachi are not so much immortal, but rather have become a walking corpse for Glachi to drive. And after a period of time, the bodies of these believers will mutate and change.
It must be very sensitive to sunlight, and in severe cases it may even turn into ashes.
