Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, the main mission of this module was carried out in stages, and it seemed that the next plot direction should be determined based on what the players did in each stage.
"The main mission this time is quite interesting. It feels like playing galgame. The results of our actions will determine the subsequent development of the plot, so I now have a bold guess that we will obtain intelligence in this module.
Too much may not be a good thing. After all, this staged main mission seems to give players a lot of autonomy, but in fact it forces players to complete the plot predetermined by the module." Ishikawa Ling smiled.
said.
Liu Xing nodded. Ishikawa Ling was right, because in the Cthulhu Run game, doing ordinary main missions is like playing an open world game. You can move freely in a large area. As long as you can complete the final
The goal is enough; doing this kind of staged main mission is like playing a linear RPG game, you must follow the mission process, and each stage will have a time limit.
Just like the first phase of the current main mission, although it seems that it can be investigated for several days, Liu Xing is sure that within two or three days, Chris will issue new requirements to force the main mission to enter.
second stage.
Zhang Jingxu nodded and said: "Of course, basically all the main tasks of the confrontation module will be carried out in stages, because it is necessary to ensure the confrontation between players and avoid some players taking advantage of the situation and taking advantage of the situation."
Just then, Yiren's cell phone rang.
The Yishi glanced at the phone, frowned and said, "It's Chris. Maybe he has some new information he wants to give us."
After saying this, Yiren answered the phone and pressed the speakerphone, "Chris, are you looking for me for something important right now?"
Chris on the other side of the phone said seriously: "The situation has changed. My informant just sent back a message that a tour group from the American Lighthouse Country was on its way back to the hotel and seemed to be coerced by two large trucks.
Now the driving route has been changed and headed out of the city, so I suspect there is something wrong with these two large trucks. Now I have led a team of police to intercept them. Liu Xing, you also come here with your companions.
Well, remember to wear body armor and a pistol. If nothing goes wrong, a fight is likely to occur. We will contact you via walkie-talkie next."
After Chris finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Yiren put down his cell phone, took out a walkie-talkie from his pocket, turned it on and adjusted it to the corresponding channel.
"Attention all colleagues on this channel, the suspect is heading towards the western suburbs with a tour group hostage. In order to avoid alerting the snake, we will not set up interception points at the intersections out of the city, and all police cars will be replaced by free rides for me.
track."
Chris's voice came from the intercom.
Liu Xing sighed and said, "Let's go. I didn't expect to get to the point so quickly, but I think this operation is likely to be a futile effort."
Ishikawa Ling nodded and said with a smile: "I think so too. After all, according to the basic routine of those police and gangster movies, the suspects who appear at the beginning are either a misunderstanding or a group of copycat criminals. It is impossible to catch the real gangster anyway.
But no matter what, we still have to go there and brush up on our presence. After all, Chris called us over this time because he wanted to see our abilities."
"Yes, in fact, I can feel that Chris has no confidence in us, because the reason why he came to me was most likely because he had a sudden illness and sought medical treatment. After all, he said that he didn't know anyone else besides me.
Someone who is capable of dealing with mythical creatures." The Yisian shrugged.
Hearing what the Yi people said, Liu Xing couldn't help but frown.
Because in Liu Xing’s brief contact with Chris before, he knew that Chris at that time most likely did not know the existence of mythical creatures, and in Fisherman Village, Alice also mentioned that in addition to some high-level people in the country,
The police chief of a place like Chris is a bit higher up in rank, so he probably doesn't know about the existence of mythical creatures through official means. At most, he only knows about some secret churches.
Therefore, Liu Xing feels that there are only two possibilities for why Chris now knows the existence of mythical creatures.
The first is that English officials discovered that the recent disappearances of foreign tourists may be related to mythical creatures, and because these cases are distributed across England, they had no choice but to tell the chiefs of local police stations about the existence of mythical creatures.
, so Chris, who didn’t know how to deal with mythical creatures, found the Yithians.
The second possibility is that Isabella did something good. After all, Liu Xing knew that Isabella was not a fuel-efficient lamp, so Liu Xing suspected that Isabella was either related to the disappearance of foreign tourists.
, or they wanted to take advantage of this case of missing foreign tourists to cause trouble, so for some purpose, they told Chris the existence of mythical creatures in some way, and even Chris called the Yis people to England.
, it’s all Isabella’s fault.
However, Liu Xing feels that no matter which possibility it is, it is not a good thing for his group. After all, the former possibility shows that the British officials cannot cover up this case of missing foreign tourists, while the latter possibility is
It means that Isabella may be doing things behind her back.
Having said that, Alice should also appear in this module.
Liu Xing remembered that in Fisherman's Village, Alice said that she would return to England after leaving Fisherman's Village, so Alice should still be in England now, and Alice's master is one of the best among humans in England and even the world.
A leader in the study of mythical creatures.
Therefore, the English officials must know about a figure like Master Alice, and after the disappearance of foreign tourists, the English officials will definitely ask him to help solve the case.
Therefore, Alice is very likely to appear in this module, and she should be on her side.
At this time, Liu Xing and his group had equipped themselves with body armor, loaded their pistols, and then left the room together.
Of course, Yi Ren and Ishikawa Ling did not forget to briefly tell Sonoda Juri and Lu Tianya what happened, and then went downstairs together.
In the parking lot of the hotel, Yiren pointed to a seemingly modified SUV and said: "This is the travel vehicle equipped by Chris. It has been modified in various ways. The glass and tires are bulletproof, so now the question is
Now, who among us is responsible for driving?"
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Because Liu Xing and Ishikawa Ling were both students by profession, they did not learn driving skills, and Zhang Jingxu, a Taoist priest, seemed to have never learned driving skills either.
Therefore, Yisren patted his head and said helplessly: "Well, it seems that none of you can drive, so let me do it. However, my driving skills are also very average. I can drive normally when traveling.
But if you need to race in the future, I hope you will be mentally prepared, as it is very possible to roll over or something."
Zhang Jingxu nodded and said with an awkward smile: "No problem, we believe you won't overturn."
After getting in the car, Ishikawa Rei contacted kp Li Shunsheng and said: "kp, I want to set this car as my safety point."
"OK, your safety points have been changed for this car." kp Li Shunchan said with a smile.
Zhang Jingxu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, took out his mobile phone and clicked on the map of Manchester. "The hotel we are in is located just west of Manchester, and according to what was said on the intercom, it will take the suspects ten minutes to reach the west side of Manchester."
It’s out of the city entrance, so we should be able to catch up if we set off now, unless there’s a traffic jam.”
The Yitian nodded, started the car and said: "OK, everyone, please fasten your seat belts, we are about to set off."
Ten minutes later, Liu Xing and his party had arrived at the west exit of Manchester. According to the message on the intercom, the two trucks and the bus full of foreign tourists were about to arrive here.
So Yiren slowed down the car, while Liu Xing and Ling Ishikawa observed the traffic behind them through the rear window.
Because today is a working day, there are not many vehicles leaving the city.
So soon, Liu Xing saw two trucks sandwiching a bus, speeding past his group.
Moreover, Liu Xing also noticed that the co-pilot in the truck in front seemed to be holding a long gun.
Liu Xing frowned and said: "Be careful, I saw the co-pilot of the truck in front was holding a long gun. The specific model is unknown, but it is probably a rifle, so Brother Liu Xing, please drive more carefully."
, never be the vanguard."
The Yisi man nodded, followed the truck behind him and said, "I understand, I won't risk my life."
At this time, Chris said through the intercom: "Now the suspect's vehicle has driven out of the city. I have arranged a car accident ten kilometers ahead to force the suspect's vehicle to stop. Nick and Chamberlain, you two
Take your own team to control the west exit, don't let other vehicles leave Manchester, and prepare the rest of the team for battle, these guys are probably all gangsters."
Zhang Jingxu thought for a moment and said to the Yi people: "Liu Xing, you should tell Chris what Meteor just discovered and ask them to be careful. After all, if a police pistol and a rifle fight, they will really suffer.
Already."
Whether in police movies or in the real world, gangsters armed with rifles can basically knock ordinary policemen armed only with pistols to the ground and beat them.
After all, the firepower of the rifle is too powerful.
Yiren nodded, picked up the walkie-talkie and told Chris what Liu Xing had just discovered.
Chris was silent for a moment and then said: "Then everyone should be more careful. If we find that the enemy is using rifles, then we will avoid their sharp edges and wait for the follow-up support troops to arrive. We only need to leave these guys behind."
Liu Xing looked around and found that there were already five SUVs following the large truck, and they were all moving at a steady speed.
It seems that at least in terms of numbers, my group is still at an advantage...unless there are people in the truck compartment.
After a while, the truck in front finally stopped.
Liu Xing took the pistol and said: "We'd better wait in the car first. If there's a gunfight, we'll go down to help. But everyone, be careful. If you can't fight, just go back to the car and hide."
Everyone nodded and began to pay close attention to the developments ahead.
At this time, Chris got out of the car on the side and walked towards the truck with a few of his men.
After more than ten minutes, Chris and his men came back, and then Chris's voice came from the intercom, "Now I have confirmed that the suspects in the truck are indeed kidnappers, and the suspects on the bus are
There were at least two armed robbers, so within a few dozen seconds, we shot and blew out the tires of the truck and bus, and then just stood our ground."
After Chris paused for a moment, he started counting down, "Ten, nine, eight, seven... one!"
When the countdown ended, Liu Xing heard intense gunshots erupting around him, as well as the sound of tires bursting.
Then, the sound of rifle fire came from the truck.
In this way, the two sides began to stalemate continuously. Because the tires of the car were blown out, the robbers could not leave the scene, and as long as they dared to leave the truck, there would be dense bullets flying towards them.
As for the police, they were very calm and kept hiding behind the vehicle to observe the robbers' movements. Therefore, after the robbers fired a bunch of bullets and found that they had no effect, they had no intention of wasting bullets.
More than ten minutes passed like this, and Liu Xing suddenly heard the sound of the propeller coming from far away.
Liu Xing poked his head out and saw three helicopters with police logos flying towards them.
Of course, at this time, more than a dozen police cars drove over, and a group of police officers armed with submachine guns stepped out.
The overall situation has been decided.
Liu Xing knew that those robbers were already trapped in the urn, and there was no way they could escape, unless these robbers were all mythical creatures.
At this time, negotiators also began to step forward to escape with the robbers.
Liu Xing stretched and said: "It seems that we are really here just for a formality this time, but if nothing else happens, these robbers are not the people we are looking for, otherwise they would not be so easily captured.
Trapped.”
Ishikawa Ling nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I'm sure these robbers are just ordinary people, and their purpose should be to kidnap these foreign tourists, and then kill all the previous kidnapping cases of foreign tourists.
Take it upon yourself and raise the ransom to gain more benefits."
This analysis by Rei Ishikawa can be considered reasonable and well-founded.
After a while, Liu Xing saw that all the robbers had been captured without any help. After all, they were now unable to fly.
