"Secret research?!" Liu Xing looked at Sirius in surprise.
Sirius nodded and said seriously: "I believe you already know, Mr. Liu Xing, that we, the Ancient Ones, were the first race of mythical creatures to arrive on Earth. There was nothing on the Earth at that time, so we, the Ancient Ones, were the first to arrive on Earth.
We lived very well on the earth at first, but unfortunately the good times did not last long. Soon there was a great war on the earth. A large number of mythical creature races and old rulers descended on the earth. At that time, we, the ancients, were very surprised.
Because we think that although a planet like the Earth has a lot of resources, it is not worth being competed by so many races of mythical creatures and the Old Ones, so we realize that there may be something on the Earth that we have not discovered."
"So, as the chief researcher of the Ancient Ones on the earth, I led an elite force to explore the earth. I soon discovered something was wrong under the Fisherman Village, because we, the Ancient Ones, have our own
According to the rules of colonization, when we come to colonize a new planet, our ancient race will use a detection instrument to scan the entire planet to determine the terrain and amount of resources on the planet. However, the underground situation of this Fisherman Village is different from what was scanned.
The situation was completely different, so I was sure that there must be something special under the Fisherman Village."
"At that time, the Fisherman Village was still a high mountain, so I decided to build a temporary military base there as a cover, and then began to dig into the inside of the mountain. While building the military base, I also explored the inside of the mountain. Soon,
We have gained something - a wordless stone tablet. According to our investigation, the specific material of this wordless stone tablet is not recorded in the database of our ancient people, and the time when this wordless stone tablet was formed is very long.
It may be the place where the universe was born... The most important thing is that this wordless stone tablet is not without inscriptions, but the original inscriptions on this wordless stone tablet have been hidden by some mysterious power. We have worked hard to
There is no way to reappear the words on the wordless stone tablet."
"So, we can only put this wordless stone tablet aside temporarily, but the appearance of this wordless stone tablet also makes us more convinced that there are more secrets hidden in that mountain. After all, this wordless stone tablet
The formation age of the word stele is older than the formation age of the earth, so this wordless stele should have been placed there by some powerful being; so, I transferred a group of people from other places to work quickly.
During the excavation work, we soon discovered another batch of wordless stone tablets. The condition of these wordless stone tablets was the same as the first wordless stone tablet. The size and thickness between them were almost exactly the same. No, it should be said that they were exactly the same, because
Our ancient clan’s most advanced detection instruments at the time were unable to detect the differences in these wordless stone tablets.”
"At that time, I thought that these wordless stone tablets were likely to record the deeds of a powerful being in the universe. However, for some reasons, these wordless stone tablets were abandoned and thrown to the earth, and were taken over by that powerful person.
The existence has hidden the original inscriptions on the wordless stone tablets, because there may be spells on how to summon this powerful existence on these wordless stone tablets. The reason why I think so is because our ancient family once had a relationship with a mythical person who was good at using magic.
The biological races have some exchanges, so I heard the priest of the mythical biological race say that some powerful beings in the universe can be summoned through the spells they left behind, and as long as a certain price is paid, the powerful beings can be summoned from those powerful beings.
You will get certain benefits in your hands.”
"Of course, some powerful beings are not willing to help casually, so they will cover up some of their whereabouts, just like these wordless stone tablets, so we plan to decipher the secrets on these wordless stone tablets. After all, we were
The Ancient Ones are already in a tight war situation and are in a state of total defeat. In addition, they are unable to contact their compatriots in the universe and apply for reinforcements. Therefore, the Archon and I both feel that if we want to turn defeat into victory on Earth, we must obtain the help of that powerful existence.
help."
"But unfortunately, we had just started studying those wordless stone tablets when the deep divers discovered our military base. After repelling a small wave of deep diver soldiers, I originally planned to take those wordless stone tablets
They all moved back to the capital of our ancient clan on earth at that time, but at this time the Shoggoth rebellion appeared. Although the Shoggoth rebellion was quickly suppressed, because the capital was extremely severely damaged,
Soon the important facilities were in ruins, so the consul decided to temporarily close the capital for repair work, so I could only keep those wordless stone tablets in the military base."
"But soon the Deep Diver clan made a comeback, and they also found their allies, the Star Families, to help. I believe Mr. Liu Xing, you also know how powerful the Star Families are, so the soldiers of the Deep Divers are very safe under the cover of the Star Families.
They quickly broke into the military base, and our ancient clan was not good at close combat and street fighting. Moreover, the people who stayed in the military base at that time were basically researchers and ordinary clerks, so it was natural that we were beaten by the deep diver clan.
We were retreating steadily, but at that time I was almost desperate. Suddenly, a mysterious force directly killed those Star Familia, and the freed army finally returned to the military base and wiped out all the Deep Diver soldiers."
"At that time, I thought that the mysterious power should come from the owners of those wordless stone tablets, and it might even be just the magic that comes with those wordless stone tablets, because as one of the top researchers among the ancient clan, I have seen many magical things.
Things, props like this that can automatically counterattack are actually very common, but the intensity of the counterattack is different, so I value these wordless stone tablets more and more, but I also know that the Deep Diver Clan and the Star Familiar Clan are likely to come again.
to attack, so I decided to evacuate with those wordless stone tablets for the second time, and this time even if I couldn't return to the capital directly, I would go to other big cities to install these wordless stone tablets. As a result, when I was about to take these wordless stone tablets out
Now that we are within the range of the Fisherman Village island, we feel a strange force preventing us from doing this."
"Of course, we wanted to take away these wordless stone tablets by force at first, but as long as these wordless stone tablets cross the boundary as a whole, a black hole with a diameter of ten meters will appear in the center of it, absorbing everything within the range.
Enter it, and then these wordless stone tablets will return to the place where we excavated them. As for the other things that were sucked into the black hole, no one knows where they went, so because it is impossible to transfer those wordless stone tablets, I also
We can only choose to settle for the next best thing and pretend that the military base has fallen. After all, when building this kind of military base, we made preparations in advance and created a mezzanine between the military base and the excavation site.
cut off."
"At the beginning, we did deceive the new batch of Deep Diver soldiers and Star Familia who came to attack, making them think that the military base had been captured by other mythical creature races, so those Deep Diver soldiers
After a hasty investigation, I followed the Star Families to the new battlefield. Then I led the remaining people to continue to study the wordless stone tablets and conduct further excavations. This time we have new ones.
Discovered - a very strange-looking egg-shaped small box. Although this small box was formed much later than those wordless stone tablets, this small box was still formed before the earth appeared."
"After a short period of research, we found that this small box seemed to contain some kind of powerful power, so I decided to temporarily give up the research on those wordless stone tablets and concentrate the remaining scientific research efforts on this small box.
, but at this time, there may be other mythical creature races fighting outside, and then a certain mythical creature race used some kind of high-tech weapon to directly cut off the power supply of our underground research facilities. As a result, at this time
, I heard screams from the laboratory and the roar of some unknown monster. When I realized that something was wrong, I opened the soul box, and then I suddenly died..."
Liu Xing frowned. If Sirius didn't lie this time, then it seems that the big fight on the earth was indeed the fault of the scapegoat Nyarlathotep, because Sirius "before his death"
The small egg-shaped box unearthed is most likely the legendary "shining cubehedron".
In the setting of the Cthulhu Running Group game, the shining cube octahedron is a necessary prop to summon the incarnation of Nyarlathotep, the night demon, because the night demon is sealed in this shining cube octahedron.
Among the hexahedrons, and when the shining cubehedron is in darkness, the night devil will automatically appear.
However, as one of the many incarnations of Nyarlathotep, the Night Demon should be considered the worst in a sense, because the Night Demon's weakness is very obvious, that is, it is very afraid of light, even the very weak one.
Light can also allow the Night Demon to be sealed again by the shining Trapezohedron.
Therefore, the Night Demon can only move in complete darkness, so players do not have to be too desperate when encountering the Night Demon, because as long as they can run to a place with light, they can escape the Night Demon's pursuit... Of course,
As the incarnation of Nyarlathotep, Night Demon's combat power is also very strong. Many times, players will be instantly killed by Night Demon in the first battle round they see...
Back to business.
Since Sirius and the others have dug up the shining Trapezohedron, it means that Nyarlathotep cannot escape the relationship. After all, in that ancient period, the shining Trapezohedron should be in Nyarlathotep.
On hand.
Therefore, those wordless stone tablets should also be related to Nyarlathotep, but Liu Xing really can’t remember what content will be recorded in these wordless stone tablets, because Liu Xing remembers that in the Cthulhu Mythos and Cthulhu Run
In the settings of the group game, it seems that the existence of these wordless stone tablets is not mentioned.
Liu Xing touched his chin and said: "I see, if it's really what you said, Sirius, then I can understand why you didn't tell me the truth at the beginning. After all, the news was so explosive.
Yes, but then again, Sirius, you should be able to sense the situation outside the soul box."
Sirius nodded and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "That's true. I can observe the outside world through the Soul Box because I modified it myself, or added some auxiliary functions to the Soul Box, such as automatic
Send out a distress signal, detect the situation near the Soul Box, and receive some feedback from the outside world, so I know Liu Xing that you have learned about the situation of the Soul Box from Crisiano."
Liu Xing looked at Sirius with a joking face, and then said: "If I hadn't met Crisiano this time, I'm afraid Sirius you still wouldn't be willing to tell the truth to me, but I also want to ask Sirius a question now.
——Do you think Crisiano is telling the truth?”
Although what Crisiano said was clear and logical, Liu Xing was still a little worried that Crisiano had told lies. After all, it was just like what Chris said - people who are not my race must have different hearts.
Sirius nodded and said: "I have indeed heard about Crisiano's deeds before, but because I was no longer in the capital at that time, I didn't really see Crisiano, but about Crisiano
Only the senior members of the Ancients who were on Earth at the time knew about the matter, so we can rule out the possibility that Crisiano was impersonated, and Crisiano has indeed been expelled from the Ancients family, but after Crisiano
The reason why he was expelled from the Ancient One clan is because Crisiano's mentality became a little inflated after gaining great power."
"So, Crisiano made a request to the Archon - let him become a general and be responsible for managing all the ancient armies on the earth. Such a request is impossible for the Archon to agree to, but Chris
Arno's power was something that the Archon could not give up, so the Archon appointed Crisiano as a senior officer, which converted to your human military rank is Major General. Unfortunately, Crisiano was still not satisfied, and began to think
He wanted to establish himself as a king, so his power was sealed and then imprisoned."
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect Crisiano to want to make himself king.
Of course, now Liu Xing is quite willing to believe Sirius's statement. After all, most mythical creatures also have emotions and desires. It is inevitable for a low-level clerk like Crisiano to have an expanded mentality after gaining powerful power.
