After leaving Amiya/Donkey's cabin, Liu Xing and others began to go to the "mine" where the seven dwarfs were.
"It seems that the plot of this offline group run is that the old witch in the candy house is causing trouble and wants to infect the fairy tale characters in the entire forest area with the plague, and our goal is to unite those lawful people in the forest area
The fairy tale characters in the camp defeated the old witch. It seems that this offline group activity is quite simple." Xue Long said with a smile.
Before Liu Xing could speak, Tang Jiansong directly retorted: "It's not that simple. The purpose of Black Fairy Tale Town's offline group running event must be to promote its various entertainment facilities, so this offline group running event
The scope of the activity is not only the forest area, but the entire black fairy tale town, so even if we defeat the old witch in the candy house, we have only defeated a small boss."
Liu Xing nodded and continued: "Tang Jiansong is right. After we defeated the old witch in the candy house, we will most likely take Princess Donkey Skin to the castle area to meet the prince. By then, the prince will definitely be there too.
It will cause some trouble, after all, in fairy tales, princes don’t have names, but the princesses in the castle area can’t be counted with two hands.”
Liu Xing has always had a question, that is, the princes in most fairy tales have no names, and they always play the role of tool men in fairy tales. They only appear at the end of the story to live happily with the princesses.
happy life.
"Well, Liu Xing, what you said seems to make sense. I really don't remember the names of the princes in those fairy tales, so in this magically modified black fairy tale town, it makes sense that there is only one prince in the castle.
"...So, after we send Princess Donkey Skin back to the castle area, are we going to help Princess Donkey Skin fight for the prince with other princesses in fairy tales?" Li Mengyao said with some worry.
Liu Xing thought for a moment, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said: "It seems that this is really possible, because we all know that Black Fairy Tale Town incorporates some settings from the Cthulhu Mythology, and there is a race name in the Cthulhu Mythology.
As Yithians, Yithians can freely travel through time and space and exchange bodies with different creatures, so maybe there is only one Yithian prince in this black fairy tale town!"
Tang Jiansong slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Liu Xing, you are right, that prince may really be from Yisi. In this case, it can explain that the princes in those fairy tales are all called princes. But in this way
If so, could the old witch in the candy house be Snow White's stepmother, because Snow White has fallen into a deep sleep because of the old witch."
"I remember that in the original version of "Snow White", the queen was actually Snow White's biological mother, and Snow White was not a good person in the original story because she had an ulterior relationship with her father, the king.
, in addition to the seven dwarfs, they also like to abuse their servants in various ways; as for the prince, he is a pervert who likes corpses, and he fell in love with Snow White because her skin is very white.
Because people lose their color and become pale after death..." Tong Xiaoyu said suddenly.
Liu Xing and others stopped in unison, and their expressions became unsightly.
If the setting of Snow White in this offline event is really what Tong Xiaoyu said, then the plot would be a bit forbidden.
At this moment, Liu Xing and others suddenly saw a sign on the way they came, with five big words written on it - Beware of the Big Bad Wolf.
It seems that the big bad wolf is ready to appear.
"If nothing else happens, we will definitely be attacked by the big bad wolf later, so we have to rush to the mine where the Seven Dwarfs are as soon as possible." Xue Long said.
As a result, Liu Xing and others accelerated their pace.
But on the way, Tang Jiansong suddenly came over and whispered: "Liu Xing, do you feel something is wrong? Logically speaking, there should be a device under that sign that allows us to make a judgment to determine whether the big bad wolf will
They won’t attack us on the way, and if they attack, who will they attack first?”
Liu Xing nodded and said with deep sympathy: "I think so too, but it is also possible that the official chose to make a secret investment at this time in order to give us tourists a better sense of immersion, or in other words
Have the officials made other preparations?”
As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, he saw a girl wearing a red robe and carrying a bamboo basket not far away.
Due to labor law restrictions, Black Fairy Tale Town cannot hire children to play Little Red Riding Hood, not to mention the children's acting skills are not up to standard.
But Liu Xing still has to say that these actresses in Black Fairy Tale Town are really beautiful. If measured by APP value, Liu Xing feels that the APP value of this Little Red Riding Hood and the previous Donkey Skin Princess are both around 85, and they have good temperament.
It also fits their character settings very well.
Are the Little Red Riding Hood and the donkey-skin princess both mythical creatures?
Unfortunately, I don't have any suitable evidence to prove this.
At this time, the lively Li Mengyao had already trotted over and said to Little Red Riding Hood: "Little Red Riding Hood, are you looking for your grandma?"
Little Red Riding Hood nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, mother made delicious cookies, so she asked me to give them to grandma who lives in the forest."
When Li Mengyao was talking to Little Red Riding Hood, Xue Long said with some uncertainty: "So is this a side mission? Let us choose whether to protect Little Red Riding Hood to meet her grandmother?"
"It is very possible that an important element of the Cthulhu Team Game is choice. Every choice made by the player will affect the subsequent plot development, so the same module may appear in a hundred teams of players.
There are a hundred completely different plot flows, and there are even some unexpected endings. Just like in front of the cabin just now, we can either choose to help Princess Donkey Skin or attack Princess Donkey Skin to advance the plot." Tang Jiansong said seriously.
said.
Xue Long nodded as if he understood, and continued to ask: "Then should we help Little Red Riding Hood? If we help Little Red Riding Hood, we will have to postpone going to the mine where the seven dwarfs are, and I don't think Little Red Riding Hood will give
What kind of reward should we give? After all, in the setting, Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother are just ordinary people, and if we help Little Red Riding Hood, we will definitely encounter the Big Bad Wolf."
Liu Xing frowned and said: "Now I am not sure whether there will be a san value, which is the setting of sanity value, in this offline group running event. This can be understood as an alternative health value.
, so if the san value returns to zero, we will also fail the game; and if this offline group event really has a san value setting, then there will only be one result if we let Little Red Riding Hood leave alone, and that is in the next
We will see the body of Little Red Riding Hood during the journey, which will cause our sanity level to drop."
"But when we first met Princess Donkey Skin, we should have lowered our sanity value, right? Could it be that the staff secretly counted the sanity value and waited until we lost a certain amount of sanity value before they came out to take us away?"
Tang Jiansong frowned and said.
At this moment, Li Mengyao suddenly ran back and said: "Little Red Riding Hood invited us to visit her grandma's house, and I have agreed to her."
Liu Xing and others were speechless. Unexpectedly, Li Mengyao agreed to Little Red Riding Hood's invitation.
At this time, Li Mengyao also realized that she was a little abrupt, making decisions without consulting Liu Xing and others, so Li Mengyao stuck out her tongue and said: "Hey, how can I refuse such a beautiful young lady?"
Liu Xing and others shrugged and could only follow Little Red Riding Hood to her grandmother's residence.
On the way, Liu Xing noticed that there were old prints on the red robe that Little Red Riding Hood was wearing.
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and whispered to Tang Jiansong next to him: "Little Red Riding Hood's robe has old prints on it. It seems that this robe is likely to be a reward for us to protect her from reaching her destination, and it can protect us from some mythical creatures."
s attack."
Tang Jiansong nodded and said with a smile: "The robe worn by Little Red Riding Hood obviously doesn't fit. At first glance, you can tell that it is designed to be worn by players. Besides, this side mission cannot have no rewards.
"
Liu Xing looked at Little Red Riding Hood, who was chatting animatedly with Li Mengyao, and realized that Little Red Riding Hood's robe was indeed a bit too big, almost covering her whole body.
After walking for a few more minutes, Tian Qing suddenly said to Liu Xing: "Liu Xing, if I remember correctly, the road we are taking now seems to lead to the candy house."
Liu Xing frowned and quickly recalled the map of the forest area. It turned out that it was exactly as Tian Qing said. Now Little Red Riding Hood was leading his group to the candy house.
Could it be that the old witch is still Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother?
Is there such an operation?
Liu Xing stopped, called to Little Red Riding Hood and said, "Little Red Riding Hood, why doesn't your grandma live with you, but stays alone in the forest? You know there is a terrible big bad wolf in the forest."
Facing Liu Xing's questioning, Little Red Riding Hood remained silent and just stared at Liu Xing.
At this time, Li Mengyao also realized that something was wrong and quickly left Little Red Riding Hood's side.
Liu Xing and his party began to confront Little Red Riding Hood.
At this moment, a big bad wolf suddenly ran out of the grass beside the road... Well, to be precise, this was a girly version of the big bad wolf, because she had white hair and a pair of
The wolf ears and eyes are probably because of wearing contact lenses, so they have long and narrow cat eyes.
Here is a piece of useless trivia, that is, the pupils of most herbivores will be rounder, because as prey, they need to look in all directions to detect possible predators around them; and many carnivores have
The pupils are vertical and narrow because as predators they need to focus entirely on their prey.
But having said that, Liu Xing feels that although the big bad wolf is showing its teeth and claws, because of its good looks and the bonus of cosplay, the big bad wolf looks quite cute.
"Ahem."
Liu Xing's desire to survive was instantly heightened. He immediately looked at his nose, nose and heart, and looked at the ground without squinting.
"Is this about to enter the battle round?" Tang Jiansong came to Liu Xing's rescue: "But how are we going to fight now, and how should the damage be calculated?"
Liu Xing thought so too. After all, this is the real world, and it is impossible to conduct battle rounds as conveniently as the Cthulhu Run game lobby.
So, where is the staff responsible for the battle wheel?
To Liu Xing's surprise, Little Red Riding Hood touched the big bad wolf's head and said, "My name is Texas. This is my good friend the big bad wolf. You can also call her Lapland."
Lapland showed an expression of enjoyment.
At this time, Texas continued: "Lapland and I were originally a pair of good sisters. Some time ago, we went to the forest to pick mushrooms together. As a result, we met a terrible old witch. She turned Lapland into a
A werewolf, and then forced me to dress up like this in order to deceive well-meaning passers-by and take them to her candy house to do horrific human experiments, and if I didn't do it, I would be like Lapland,
So during this period of time, I have been waiting for a brave man to end all this."
Working for the tiger?
After listening to Texas' story, these four words suddenly came to Liu Xing's mind.
"So Texas, do you think we are the brave men you are waiting for?" Li Mengyao asked carefully.
Texas nodded and said seriously: "I noticed you just now when you went to find Ami Donkey, so I also heard Ami Donkey calling you the brave man, so I wanted to take you with me.
Go find that old witch, she will definitely relax her vigilance because you are ordinary people, and then you will be able to deal with her more easily."
Amy donkey?
Liu Xing couldn't help but think of Amiya's appearance, and felt that the nickname Amiya was quite appropriate.
At this time, Xue Long stood up and said: "Texas, our original plan was to find the seven dwarfs in the mine first, and then go to the candy house to trouble the old witch after getting their help, so...
.”
Before Xue Long could finish speaking, Texas interrupted: "The seven dwarfs in the mine are not good people. They have always been entrenched in the forest to rob passers-by, and Snow White is the one
The old witch's spy in the forest helped the old witch obtain information about other people in the forest. The reason why Lapland and I were caught by the old witch was because we believed Snow White's lies. She said that in the forest,
There is a priceless mushroom in there, and she will give us a lot of money if we can bring it to her."
Liu Xing and Tang Jiansong looked at each other and both knew that this was the basic routine of the Cthulhu group game. To put it simply, no one among the players could believe it.
