Chapter 1196: The Spirit of Fire
"So, shall we send a few people over and have a look? Determine the specifics of the fire. ”
Mai Yuqiang said a little eagerly: "To be honest, I still like to join in the fun, so does anyone want to go with me to watch the fire up close?" Ah no, should I say to help? ”
"Take me one." Yin En raised his hand and said, "I also like to join in the fun, and I'm also curious about what was ignited and how there was such a big movement." ”
Since Mai Yuqiang and Yin En both said so, Liu Xing can only choose to add one, "Then let's go over and take a look now, after all, knowing ourselves and knowing the other can win all battles, so we have to find out if someone is targeting us in this fire now." ”
So, Liu Xing and Yin En, plus Mai Yuqiang and Dior, after taking their weapons, took their guns to watch the excitement.
Because there is a fire station next to the industrial zone, when Liu Xing and others rushed to the scene of the fire, the fire brigade had already begun to extinguish the fire and provide disaster relief.
"It tastes right."
Yin En took a deep breath and said with a smile: "In addition to the smell of firewood, this can also smell a trace of paint; However, it also proves that the main cause of the fire was not the furniture store stockpiling a large amount of paint, and then the fireworks ignited and exploded. ”
Liu Xing looked at the fire that was still burning, nodded and said, "Yes, it is unlikely that this fire was caused by paint, but this fire is inevitably a little too big, right?" Although wood is indeed very easy to burn, the wood in the furniture factory is basically cut boards, so the burning efficiency is good for a while, but it will not be too long, and it is impossible to burn to the current state. ”
"yes, the truth of this fire may be completely different from our previous guesses."
Dio shook his head and continued: "But the most important thing is that we have to determine whether this fire was an accident or if someone did it on purpose, if it is the former then everything is fine, but if this fire is deliberately created by some people, then we have to be careful, because this fire is very likely to be aimed at us." ”
As soon as Liu Xing's words fell, he saw a car parked next to the fire truck, and then a middle-aged man in his forties got out of the car.
As soon as the middle-aged man got out of the car, he ran to talk to the commander next to the fire truck, and his expression seemed to be quite anxious.
"If nothing else, this person should be the owner of this furniture factory."
Liu Xing looked around and found that there were still many people who came over to join in the fun, and among them, Liu Xing also saw an "acquaintance", that is, the man who accidentally knocked over the weapon box outside the cannery.
It seems that the fire has nothing to do with the cannery, but the cannery, which has done something wrong, is also afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, so it also sent someone to investigate what happened here.
Because the industrial area is already a suburb of Nagoya, the people who came to see the excitement at this time came from various factories, so around the burning furniture factory, there were many cars with various factory advertisements, which made Liu Xing mistakenly think that he had come to an advertising center.
At this moment, the director of the furniture factory left the fire truck with a sad face, and several people who looked like bosses next to him called him over.
After Liu Xing and the others made some eye contact, they sneaked over, but this can't actually be regarded as sneaky, because there are already many people who have gone over to watch the excitement.
So when Liu Xing and the others leaned over, they heard the director of the furniture factory just mention the point, "I had something to go home to deal with yesterday, so I handed over the affairs of the furniture factory to the second-in-command of our furniture factory, that is, the sales supervisor Gu Shou to be responsible, as a result, this Gu Shou found a reason to meet customers this afternoon to go to the city, and did not designate who was in charge of the affairs of the furniture factory, so those rabbit cubs set off fireworks in the factory, and the sparks fell and ignited the paint... And what Bolton left with me. ”
"Bolton? I remember that guy was a grain and oil wholesaler, right? So what he left with you is already oil or flour, right? ”
A man who seemed to be familiar with the director of the furniture factory continued: "No wonder the explosion was so loud, it turned out that there was a flour explosion, I remember when I was a child, there was a small flour processing factory near my home, and one day because a new employee couldn't help but want to smoke, and then a match detonated the whole factory, and the windows of my house were shattered." ”
"Flour exploded?"
A person next to him said in a skeptical tone: "Although the power of the flour explosion is indeed very large, it is not easy to meet the conditions of the flour explosion, simply put, it is necessary to fill a sealed space with floating flour particles, so that the flour can be detonated, but I remember that Lao Liu, your furniture factory is not a closed warehouse in order to dry wood, right?" ”
"That's right, I don't have any enclosed space in my furniture factory, and although there is a lot of flour in the things that Bolton asked me to help put away, the flour is well packed in bags and stacked in boxes, so it shouldn't be a flour explosion, right? Unless those bastard boys are idle and have nothing to do, go and find out all the flour, so that it may cause the flour to explode... But no matter how stupid those guys are, they can't play like that. ”
The director of the furniture factory, known as the sixth child, couldn't help but sigh again, and said with some sadness: "It's a pity that those guys can't appear in front of me again, otherwise I have to give them a slap in the face, so that they can have a good memory... ”
When everyone present heard the sixth man say this, they all sighed, and then shook their heads and said nothing.
After a while, the fire finally subsided... To be exact, the furniture factory has been burned out.
At this time, Yin En took out a monocular from his pocket, roughly scanned the ruins of the furniture factory, and then shook his head and said, "I have a telescope with night vision, but I still can't see anything useful, so let's get out of here first." ”
Liu Xing glanced at the furniture factory that was already in ruins, and just when he wanted to nod and say something, he saw that in a corner of the furniture factory, there seemed to be a small flame constantly shaking.
No, it's not a small flame!
Liu Xing looked at it fixedly, and only then did he determine that this small flame was suspended in mid-air, so this should be the legendary flame spirit!
The Flame Spirit is a special mythical creature in the Cthulhu Mythos, because there are actually two mythical creatures that use the name Flame Elemental, and the reason is that two authors chose the same name.
However, since one of the two authors is named Drake, that is, Drake, who really carried forward the "Cthulhu Mythos", his Flame Spirit will be more famous, so under normal circumstances, the "Flame Spirit" that appears in the Cthulhu Run game lobby is Drake's Fire Spirit.
Of course, whether it is Drake's Flame Essence or another author's Flame Spirit, both are the family of the old ruler Ketugya, but if the Flame Essence of the other author is to be studied in detail, then these Flame Spirits are a bit like Deep Divers, they believe in both Ketugya and Ketugya's high priest Fortagua, and this Fortagua's is a large Flame Spirit.
Back to the point.
The reason why the Flame Spirit is a special mythical creature, in addition to its special background, the most striking thing is its characteristics - double attack and physical immunity.
As the name suggests, the Flame Essence is a self-aware fireball, because the Flame Essence is a large fireball known as the "Earth Sun" because they believe in Ketugea, so the Flame Essence is also considered by some people to be the heir of Ketugea, or a part of Ketugea, after all, when summoning Ketugya to come to Earth, the Flame Essence will also be brought with him, and then burn the whole world with Ketugya.
Because of this, the Flame Essence has the ability to make most items burn, so when the player fights the Flame Spirit, it is very likely that the Flame Spirit will burn off the clothes, as well as the hair all over the body... In addition to being very embarrassing for the player, this will also make the player very depressed, because the various items that the player carries with him will also be swept away.
In addition to this, the last thing that makes players want to face the Flame Spirit is those four words - physical immunity.
In the face of a ball of flames, do you think you have what it takes to finish him off with a single sword?
Again, except for a small number of players, most players can only deal physical damage to enemies, so the Flame Spirit of Physical Immunity is a difficult existence for players, and even if it is a spell, it must be a fire-based spell to play a role.
However, various types of fire extinguishing devices, even a bucket of water and a bucket of sand are all big killers for the Flame Spirit, so if you happen to have these things at hand, then it is quite easy to deal with the Flame Spirit.
Just like the flame spirit that Liu Xing saw now, it had almost been extinguished by the fire brigade.
However, even if it was such a small mass of Flame Essence, Liu Xing did not dare to approach it rashly, because the Flame Essence's double attack was really a bit difficult to fix, because the Flame Essence would not only cause high damage to the player, but also absorb the player's MP value, and it would be a full ten points at a time.
You should know that there are many players whose character cards have an MP value of no more than 10 points.
In this way, as long as the attack of the Flame Spirit is successful, the player may have both HP and MP bottomed out.
Although for ordinary players, this MP is something they will not need for a lifetime, but if the MP bottoms out, then the player will also be debuffed in various ways.
Thinking of this, Liu Xinggang wanted to remind Yin En and the others, but saw that the flame spirit suddenly disappeared.
It seems that this flame spirit is at the end of the summoning time, so it returns directly to Ketugea's side.
"Liu Xing, what are you looking at?"
Yin En patted Liu Xing's shoulder and said, "It's nothing to look at, so let's go back to sleep." ”
Because there were a lot of outsiders around, Liu Xing nodded directly and took the lead in getting back into the car.
When Yin En and the others were all in place, Liu Xing spoke: "I just saw a flame essence,"
"What?!"
Yin En and the three of them all looked at Liu Xing with surprised expressions.
"The Flame Element's reminder is very small, and if you don't pay attention, you might think it's a small flame that hasn't been extinguished yet, but I'm sure it's the legendary Flame Spirit, and it's because it's the Flame Essence that we can explain the fire in the furniture factory."
After listening to Liu Xing's words, Yin En immediately stood up and asked: "The appearance of the Flame Essence is indeed very good to explain the ins and outs of this fire, but why did these Flame Spirits suddenly appear in this furniture factory?" If someone did it on purpose, then I would like to ask him what kind of grudge he has with this furniture factory, what kind of grudge? Summoned the Spirit of Fire to deal with the furniture factory? If this fire is actually coming at us by the public faction, then why are they killing chickens with knives? ”
"Accident."
Dio said at this time: "This is very likely to be an accident, because I was idle and bored when I was in seclusion in Duwang Town, and I have read many folklore of island countries, although most of these folklore are fictional, but some of them may still be true, such as the fire of the Honnoji Change!" ”
"Dior, you mean, that fire at the Honnoji Temple was actually set by the Spirit of Fire?" Yin En asked subconsciously.
Dio nodded and replied seriously: "Although Oda Nobunaga didn't have many soldiers and horses around him when he was in Honnoji Temple, there are not many soldiers that Akechi Mitsuhide can fully trust, after all, those soldiers were assigned to Akechi Mitsuhide by Oda Nobunaga, so if Oda Nobunaga ascends to the top and shouts, then many soldiers will choose to defect to the battle; The most important thing is that we all know that Oda Nobunaga also has a powerful mythical creature behind him, otherwise he would not have had a chance to win the world. ”
"Therefore, although Oda Nobunaga in the Honnoji Temple does not have many subordinates, but the quality of his subordinates is not low, if you really want to fight with the wise Mitsuhide real sword and gun, then it is not certain who will kill the deer, so the reason why Oda Nobunaga was so completely defeated, I think the only way to find the reason is from the fire that burned down the Honnoji Temple, and the answer that can be found in the end is the essence of fire, because even if it is a mythical creature with strong strength, as long as there is no means to counter the essence of fire, then they have only one result when facing the essence of fire - give it for nothing."
