Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 16 The Past of the Castle

Everyone had nothing to do, so they began to allocate rooms. As the only lady, Wang Siyi naturally occupied a small room, and because no one wanted to live in the same room with Baihe City, so Baihe City also lived in a room alone. So the big room is where Liu Xing, Wang Qi, and Chen Ling will make do, but as long as nothing unexpected happens, Liu Xing and others will not spend the night in the castle, because as long as the main task is completed, Liu Xing and others People will try their best to leave the castle and the small town of Eins.

After the room was allocated, Wang Siyi, who had nothing to do, went to rest in his own room alone, and Baihecheng, under the strong request of Liu Xing and Chen Ling, and Wang Qi's persuasion (physics), had a serious expression on his face. Unhappy, he went back to his room.

This large room in the castle is more than 50 square meters, with some simple furniture decoration, and two large beds. You can see the back garden of the castle from the window of this room.

Of course, it's not so much a back garden as it is a dilapidated courtyard, overgrown with weeds, it can be seen that it hasn't been taken care of for a long time.

But think about it, since Liu Xing entered the castle, he only saw old Wayne, the butler, and didn't see any servants in the castle. It seems that the lord of the castle is worried about being discovered by people. My own secret is either because of my limited economic ability, so I didn't hire more servants.

Liu Xing thinks the latter is more likely, because from the layout of this room, for the British nobles who like to enjoy themselves and save face, this room is a bit too shabby and cheap, and even the back garden is long. The time has not been taken care of, and there is only one old butler in the entire castle, which shows that the lord of the castle has already experienced an economic crisis.

Liu Xing rubbed his chin and began to think about a question, would he have a chance to make a fuss out of it?

If Liu Xing's previous guess is correct, the lord of the castle is likely to be a human with knowledge of the Cthulhu mythology, who may know some spells, or can summon some lower-level mythical creatures, but as long as the SAN value is not low If it reaches a single digit, then Liu Xing thinks that he can still use persuasion skills to the lord of the castle, such as pretending that he is a rich man and providing financial assistance to the lord of the castle.

Seems like a good idea.

"Player old doctor, because you have been observing the back garden of the castle for a long time, you suddenly feel a blur in front of you, as if there is something hidden in the grass, please pass an inspiration test." Suddenly, the voice of kp004 was in Liu Xing's ear sounded.

Liu Xing frowned. He didn't expect that he would actually trigger the inspiration test. You should know that in such a situation, as long as you pass the inspiration test, you may see some mythical creatures or supernatural phenomena, which will eventually lead to a decrease in the SAN value. This can be regarded as running a group in Cthulhu, a check that players don't want to pass the last time.

But Liu Xing's inspiration is as high as 90, it's hard not to pass it.

Therefore, Liu Xing could only helplessly say: "kp, start the inspiration check."

Inspiration, 95/90, failed. (The author swears by his personality, the number of points cast by the author is 95, and he absolutely did not manipulate the dice girl)

. . . . . .

Liu Xing and kp004 fell silent at the same time, they did not expect that the test with a 90% success rate would fail.

kp004 said helplessly: "I didn't expect you to be so lucky that you could fail, but since the result is a failure, then you didn't find anything. You just thought you were delusional just now."

Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief, after all, it's great that the inspiration didn't succeed this time, just now Liu Xing was ready to drop the SAN value.

But having said that, Liu Xing found that Wang Qi and Chen Ling didn't look at him, as if they didn't know that Liu Xing just passed an inspiration test.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing contacted kp004 and said, "kp, did you not inform other players of the result of the inspiration test just now?"

kp004 may be depressed because of the failed inspiration just now, so he didn't reply Liu Xing immediately, "Ah, oh, it's like this, players can make open and hidden shots, and we kp will let players do it according to the situation. Hidden throwing, the progress and results of the hidden throwing are only known to the player himself, other players will not receive relevant messages and prompts, of course, players can also choose to tell other players this news."

Liu Xing nodded silently, and understood the meaning of kp004. This is equivalent to the player triggering a certain plot, so only the player who triggered the plot can perform the relevant test and get various information about the plot.

Liu Xing felt that if he had succeeded in the inspiration check just now, a side mission would be triggered in all likelihood, and he didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse.

Of course, Liu Xing decided to tell his teammates the news, and let them be careful. After all, losing the SAN value is still a trivial matter, triggering some unnecessary plots, or attracting a mythical creature. It's not fun anymore.

But at this moment, a new check began.

Library utilization, 70/70, success.

The library uses this skill, which is actually an information acquisition skill. It does not require the player to use it in the library, but when the player consults information through books, newspapers, the Internet, etc., this skill can be used to obtain information faster. Intelligence, get more intelligence.

Therefore, using the library can be regarded as a very practical skill. Unfortunately, Liu Xing's interest skill points are not enough, so he didn't point out this skill.

Liu Xing reckoned that this library skill should be used by Wang Siyi, because if Liu Xin remembers correctly, one of the journalist's professional skills is library use.

After a while, Wang Siyi walked into the room with a book, and Baihe City who heard the news also came in.

"I found this book in the room, and found that it recorded various events that happened in this ancient castle, and I also knew that the owner of the ancient castle is the Raphael family." Wang Siyi wrote the book Put it on the table and said.

"There are three main things among them. The first thing happened a thousand years ago. The founder of the castle, Raphael I, was a marquis. The fief was in the small town of Eins. During the time of this ancient castle, there had been worker casualties. The recorded death toll was thirteen, and the missing number was more than ten. After that, Raphael I discovered the devil under the foundation of the ancient castle, and Defeated the demon."

"The second thing happened about three hundred years ago. A group of secret societies that believed in demons appeared in the small town of Eins. In the garden behind the castle, the statue of the evil god enshrined by this secret society was smashed and buried in the ground."

"The third thing is that a hundred years ago, a hundred well-equipped English soldiers were temporarily stationed in this castle due to heavy rain. As a result, after a rainy night, this group of English soldiers mysteriously Missing, at that time Manchester officials came to ask the lord of the castle at that time, but failed because they could not find any evidence."
