"Although my understanding of the living curse is just that, I feel that the living curse is an existence between living things and spiritual bodies, because the living curse that is chasing me is usually in a spiritual state, and can
It can directly pass through various obstacles with its extremely fast speed, but when it attacks me, it will transform into a physical entity and will also be affected by poison, because I once used a trap with poison dart frogs to defeat it.
It's once." Cord said seriously.
Liu Xing nodded, already thinking about how to use the shells of these needlepoint wheat.
At this time, Matt, who had packed the shelled needlepoint wheat, suddenly patted his head and said: "By the way, Mr. Liu Xing, I almost forgot that Mr. Chris asked me to bring you something, so I'm
I’ll go back and bring my things here later, and you and Cord can wait for me here for a while.”
After Mette finished speaking, she left angrily.
Cord shrugged, picked up a bag of shelled needlepoint wheat and said: "Then let's take these shelled needlepoint wheat back to the brewing center first. Mate's residence is quite far from here, so wait for it
It will be at least half an hour before you get back."
Liu Xing nodded and followed Code to take the packed needlepoint wheat back to the warehouse of the brewing center.
The warehouse in the brewing center is also quite interesting. It is not like the granary in Liu Xing’s impression, where all kinds of grains are piled into hills. Instead, it is divided into several parts like a logistics center, and each part is
Separated by a thick cloth.
"Kode, are there other types of grains besides pinpoint wheat stored in the warehouse of the brewing center?" Liu Xing asked curiously.
Code picked up a notebook from the table beside him, handed it to Liu Xing and said, "In the past, the brewing center had quite a variety of products, including white wine, red wine, yellow wine, and sake. However, because the white wine brewed from needlepoint wheat has the best taste,
In addition, the husks of needlepoint wheat have other functions, so Blackstone Mountain Prison gradually grew only needlepoint wheat. Therefore, the remaining brewing grains were piled in the warehouse. However, because this warehouse was first built,
It was magically cast so that the grains in the warehouse would not deteriorate over time. In addition, the warehouse was large enough, so the grains were not processed, and maybe someone wanted to drink other drinks that day?"
Liu Xing opened the notebook and found that it contained many names of grains that Liu Xing had never heard of, as well as how many of them were still stored in the warehouse.
In addition, Liu Xing also saw an inventory list of other drinks.
In this list, Liu Xing saw a drink called Taoyuan Wine.
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and said, "Corder, can I take one or two bottles of wine from the warehouse?"
"Of course, no one has cared about the wine stored in the warehouse, so there is no problem for you to take them all away. But Liu Xing, you have to take the wine away after work tonight, lest those fanatics see it.
You must know that these fanatics have turned into talkative women because they are gossiping behind their backs." Cord said indifferently.
Liu Xing nodded and followed the instructions on the list to find the storage location of Taoyuan Wine.
The container of Taoyuan wine is a small wine jar with Chinese characteristics, and there is a small sign next to it saying the characteristics of Taoyuan wine - where the Black Rock Mountain Prison was built, the construction workers in the T area discovered a famous name while laying the foundation.
It is the ancient village site of Taoyuan Village, and several wooden barrels containing ancient Taoyuan wine were discovered, so the person in charge of T area decided to make wine making the specialty of T area.
Through research on ancient Taoyuan wine, the person in charge of T area took the essence and discarded the dross, and developed a formula for Taoyuan wine, which can make people become more sober after drinking Taoyuan wine.
That’s right, Taoyuan wine will not make you drunk, but will make you sober the more you drink!
Therefore, the sales of Taoyuan Liquor in Blackstone Mountain Prison are getting worse and worse, because those fanatics drink just to pass the boring time after getting drunk. What the hell is it that the more you drink, the more sober you become?!
Therefore, Taoyuan Liquor was completely discontinued soon. However, what worried Liu Xing was that the ingredients of Taoyuan Liquor also contained needlepoint wheat, so no wonder Liu Xing felt that the brewing center emanated from it when he first came to the brewing center.
The smell of wine is so familiar.
Liu Xing picked up a jar of Taoyuan wine, and the specific information of Taoyuan wine came to his mind - Taoyuan wine is aged, and the drinker will get the buff "Everyone is drunk, I am alone sober", and the duration of the buff is determined by the amount of alcohol consumed.
Everyone is drunk but I am alone: Players or NPCs who obtain this buff will remain absolutely awake and will receive certain bonuses when making certain judgments.
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and found that the effect of this Taoyuan wine was quite good, but it was a pity that it came to the wrong place, so its effect had the opposite effect.
Liu Xing moved the only two jars of Taoyuan wine left in the warehouse.
By this time, Matt had already arrived at the warehouse, and what Chris asked to bring to Liu Xing was actually a puppet.
Yes, this puppet was a "gift" brought by Leon's parents when they returned from a trip.
At that time, Liu Xing felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the puppet, but until the end of the module, there was no abnormality in the puppet, so Liu Xing has almost forgotten about the puppet now.
However, since the Scarlet Ghoul specially arranged for Matt to bring this puppet to him, it means that this puppet is really not simple.
But having said that, Liu Xing felt that the puppet looked a little different from what he remembered. In short, it was not that ugly.
At this time, Mei Te told Liu Xing the origin of this puppet.
After the bloody ghoul met Miss Wang, he went home and took away some things that were very important to him, such as the relics left by his parents.
As a result, when they were almost done cleaning up, the puppet suddenly fell in front of the bloody ghoul.
Because the Scarlet Ghoul still retains some memories of when Liu Xing controlled his body, he knew that this puppet would not appear in front of him under normal circumstances, unless the puppet was abnormal.
As a result, the Scarlet Ghoul took the puppet away with him, and after some research, determined that the puppet was a magic prop.
To put it simply, this puppet will perform some simple behaviors according to the caster's requirements, such as moving.
Through this puppet, the Scarlet Ghoul realized that Leon's parents might be magicians, so it wanted to find Leon's parents and ask them if there was any way to relieve him from the Scarlet Ghoul state.
So, on a dark and stormy night, the bloody ghoul sneaked into Leon's parents' home.
Just as the bloody ghoul thought, Leon's parents were indeed magicians and had a very good relationship with Wesker and others. The reason why they gave these magical puppets to Liu Xing and the others was because they wanted to
Let these puppets scare Liu Xing and the others.
Because Leon's parents also knew about the situation of the Scarlet Ghoul, the Scarlet Ghoul chatted happily with Leon's parents... Unfortunately, none of the methods proposed by Leon's parents had any effect...
Later, the Scarlet Ghoul began to travel around the world, always carrying this puppet with him because it could contact Leon's parents through this puppet. Until five years ago, Leon's parents passed away one after another due to illness.
After Leon's parents passed away, the puppet lost the blessing of magic and became an ordinary puppet. However, at this time, the Scarlet Ghoul also learned various magics, so the Scarlet Ghoul gave the puppet a new look.
He cast multiple spells and asked Matt to be taken to Blackstone Mountain Prison to help Liu Xing.
Although the Scarlet Ghoul has good intentions, because the Scarlet Ghoul has never been to the Dreamland, the Scarlet Ghoul does not know the situation in the Dreamland, so this magic puppet temporarily disappeared after entering the Dreamland.
It lost its due function and became an ordinary puppet again. Only when Liu Xing brought it back to the real world could it regain its effect.
Liu Xing sighed, now he finally understood why this puppet was running around back then. It turned out that it was because of the magic cast on this puppet by Leon's parents.
At that time, I almost regarded Leon's parents as enemies.
As for what new effects the Scarlet Ghoul has added to this puppet, Liu Xing estimates that it should be the call function and the protection function. After all, calling through other methods is a bit unsafe, and he is absolutely weak in the eyes of the Scarlet Ghoul.
chicken...
Unfortunately, the Cthulhu Run Game Hall still imposes restrictions on this puppet, and does not intend to allow me to use this puppet in Blackstone Mountain Prison.
"Mr. Liu Xing, I just got the preliminary investigation report on today's murder case when I went back. Are you interested in knowing it in advance?" Mate said suddenly.
Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, but what I want to know most is what the attack method of the living curse is. I don't know if you have investigated it."
Matt shrugged and said helplessly: "At present, we are not sure about the attack method of the living curse, because we specifically asked about the situation in Area X. Area X said that the living curse was caused by an accident.
So they don’t know the specific situation of this living curse. At present, they only know that this living curse is likely to be a completely random selection of attack targets. As for the investigation at the crime scene, we found that this living curse did not eat those fanatical believers.
soul, so we believe that this living curse kills those fanatical believers just out of instinct, which means that we cannot predict the next target of this living curse."
"Then we determined that the Living Curse kills fanatic believers by creating illusions, and these illusions come from the fear deep in the hearts of those fanatic believers, so it can be said that those fanatic believers were scared to death.
..Okay, I also think this is a bit incredible. After all, the fanatic believers who can enter the Blackstone Mountain Prison are fine if they say they are heartless. I really can’t figure out what else these fanatic believers are afraid of? But this
Maybe it's the power of the living curse, so Liu Xing, the person in charge of Area O that you met today, that is, the human-faced rat plans to give psychological suggestions to all the fanatic believers in Blackstone Mountain Prison in order to achieve the true goal.
The realm where the earth is not afraid.”
"However, the heads of other regions rejected this idea because it was too troublesome, and the effect may not be very good. After all, we have not yet figured out the specific ability of the living curse; then there is the matter of those crazy people.
After investigating the believers, we found that there is no deep connection between the fanatic believers. They are just a group of ordinary fanatic believers with no place worth living. However, the only surviving fanatic believer is somewhat
It makes sense, because this fanatic has not joined any secret church."
Cord raised his eyebrows and said with some surprise: "Oh, are there any fanatic believers who have not joined the secret church these days?"
Met nodded and said, "Yes, most people become fanatics after entering the secret church, because they can only see the true face of the world after entering the secret church. Of course, there are also some fanatics.
They are self-taught, but they will also choose to join the secret church in the end, because after they know the truth of the world, they will clearly realize that fighting alone is not a good choice; and this is also true, those who are full of self-confidence
, fanatical believers who want to make their mark alone will basically not survive long, because their personal strength is not worth mentioning in this real world."
"But this fanatic named Bowie is an exception. According to the information provided to us by the island country's official, this Bowie is a mixed race between the island country and England. His father David Keen was once an ordinary member of the Corpse Cult.
However, for some reasons, they broke away from the Corpse Cult and were even hunted by the Corpse Cult. Therefore, combined with Bowie’s situation, we suspect that Bowi’s father stole something from the Corpse Cult.
He chose to escape to the island country, and Bowie became self-taught because of those things, and he did not choose to join any secret church because of his father’s experience.”
"Bowie's parents died when he was in high school, but because his parents left a very rich inheritance, Bowie still lived a carefree life. This was also when Bowie first started committing crimes, the local police directly
The reason for ignoring him is that he really doesn't look like a terrifying serial killer; of course, at this time, we can already see the biggest difference between Bowie and ordinary fanatics - calmness and restraint, although he has always longed for it in his heart
Blood, but he will not be dominated by his inner desires, so when the local police stepped up their investigation, he could not commit a crime for several years, so it took the local police more than 20 years to catch him."
PS: You should be able to guess who this Bowie is, hehe.
