Chapter 700: The Scarlet Wedding (Part II)

After all, no matter how good the reward is, it is not as important as your own life.

After making up his mind, Liu Xing decided to let everything go, if he found the mysterious person L before the end of the wedding, of course, it would be great; It doesn't matter if you can't find it, and there's no punishment for this hidden mission anyway.

Looking at Liu Xing, who was starting to wander again, Dior said seriously: "Chris, what are you thinking?" Is it because you didn't sleep well last night, so something is wrong with your mental state right now? ”

Liu Xing came back to his senses, shook his head and said: "It's okay, I'm just thinking that there is definitely something wrong with that murder case, nine times out of ten it is the victim who was killed by Locke and the mysterious person L, after all, there will be such a coincidence, and suddenly a murderer who is exactly the same as the defendant and even the same size will appear?" ”

Dior shrugged his shoulders and said: "After reading the file of this murder case, everyone will basically have the same idea as Chris, thinking that Locke and the defendant and the mysterious man L are in the same group, but unfortunately there is no evidence to prove this now, and the mysterious man L seems to not exist, and the French police have not investigated any clues related to the mysterious man L so far, so this murder case has almost become a headless unsolved case so far." ”

Liu Xing sighed, although he said so, but judging from the current situation, the mysterious man L is not a murderer, and he is not even an accomplice, and even the mysterious man L is still a victim, otherwise the mysterious man L would not have taken revenge on Locke today.

So, what is the origin of this mysterious person L?

Liu Xing began to feel a pain in his brain again... To be precise, since the start of this module, Liu Xing's brain pain has not been alleviated.

Sure enough, the Cthulhu Run game is a teamwork game, and it is too troublesome to fight alone.

Now, Liu Xing begins to miss Yin En, Zhang Jingxu, Zhang Wenbing and others.

"Well, you shouldn't be able to think of a reason for that murder for a while, so I'm going to tell you a little bit about Locke?" Dio took a sip of his drink.

Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "Of course you can, but what I'm more curious about now is that Locke's relatives and friends really don't know that he is a ghoul?" ”

Dio thought for a while, shook his head and said: "I really don't know about this, after all, Chris, you should also know, Locke's family has been passed down for thousands of years, so there are about two hundred people still alive, so although my friend is a famous detective in England, it is impossible to investigate all of Locke's clansmen at the same time, so my friend only went to investigate those closest relatives to Locke, and found that those people should not know that Locke has become a ghoul." ”

"But among these relatives, my friend found out that Locke had some ulterior relationship with his cousin Jennifer... Chris, you should also know very well that the upper nobles of England, or most of Europe, will choose to intermarry in order to ensure the purity of their family bloodline, although in modern times due to the continuous improvement of genetics, the cases of inbreeding have become less and less, but this 'tradition' has been preserved. ”

Liu Xing looked at Dior with a confused expression, he didn't expect Dior to suddenly drive at this time.

But then again, this is indeed a good trick to use against Locke, after all, Locke is now considered a public figure, so if his improper relationship with his cousin is made public, I'm afraid Locke can really only regard "ghoul" as his main profession.

Therefore, Liu Xing touched his chin and said, "Dior, has any of your friends gotten any substantial evidence to prove that the things he investigated are true and credible?" Maybe we can give Locke a 'social death' first? ”

Dio raised his eyebrows, shook his head and said: "It's a pity that my friend didn't get any substantial evidence, after all, with Locke's current identity, it is difficult for my friend to follow Locke twenty-four hours a day, especially when he goes to some extremely private places, so the reason why my friend was able to determine that Locke and his cousin have a leg is basically to rely on reasoning to complete some important clues." ”

At this moment, KP Time stood up again and said: "Congratulations to the player for triggering a hidden task of this mod - an ulterior relationship, if the player can get important evidence that there is some kind of ulterior relationship between Locke and Jennifer, then the player can choose to give this evidence to Jennifer or Rosa, Locke's wife, and then the player can get a completely different reward... However, Liu Xing, you don't have to expect too much from the rewards of this hidden mission, because this hidden mission has nothing to do with the main plot of this mod. ”

And this kind of operation?

Liu Xing really didn't expect that this kind of thing could become a hidden mission, but although Liu Xing didn't expect much to get a good reward for completing this hidden mission, Liu Xing was still very curious about what kind of reward he would get if he handed over the evidence to Locke's wife Rosa.

As for what kind of reward he would get if he handed over the evidence to Locke, Liu Xing felt that it was better not to try it casually...

But then again, since this hidden mission appeared at this time, Liu Xing felt that it was necessary for him to take a good look around the manor at this time, and maybe he would be able to meet Locke and Jennifer who were having a tryst.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing said to Dior: "Dior, do we want to take a look around the manor now, in case after you expose Locke's true face later, Locke can't help but break the net with us, we can also have a suitable escape route in advance." ”

In the face of Liu Xing's proposal, Dior said with a smile: "Actually, I am ready to die with Locke, so when the time comes, Chris will be mixed in the crowd, as long as there is a riot, you will leave the manor with those guests, I will definitely not expose your existence, but we can indeed take a walk around the manor now, anyway, the wedding will not officially start in an hour." ”

Liu Xing sighed, got up and said, "Dior, are you sure you want to die with Locke?" ”

Dio nodded, took out a small cross from his bosom and said: "This cross is a good thing I got from a magician named Gary when I was in the Flower Cemetery, as long as the tip of this cross is inserted into Locke's body, Locke will directly remove his disguise and turn back into a ghoul." ”

Gary?

Liu Xing frowned, pretended to be surprised and said: "The Gary you said should be the owner of the Einsian Castle in Manchester, I heard that he seems to be also a member of the Corpse Food Sect, so how could he have such a thing, and why did he give this kind of thing to you?" ”

Dio smiled, pretending to be mysterious and said: "Actually, I deceived this thing from Gary, because I had a very good relationship with Gary when I was in the Flower Cemetery, after all, in the Flower Cemetery, the only human person I can talk to is Gary, so I became good friends with Gary after coming and going, and one day Gary showed me this cross, to be exact, there are more than ten such crosses in Gary's hands, because these crosses are Gary when he traveled abroad a few years ago, Accidentally found in an antique shop in Eastern Europe, I heard that these crosses were made by the Inquisition in the Middle Ages to deal with mythical creatures that could turn into humans. ”

When he heard the word "Inquisition", Liu Xing couldn't help but think of the darkest chapter of the Middle Ages - the witch hunting campaign.

Over the course of three centuries, more than 100,000 so-called witches were sentenced to death, and many others were killed as werewolves, vampires and other supernatural creatures, in short, the religious forces of Europe

A massacre in order to "sweep away dissidents".

However, in the world of the Cthulhu Run game, there are indeed a large number of mythical creatures and magicians in the witch hunting campaign, and even the old rulers appear in some mods, so it makes sense that the Inquisition will create this kind of cross that can force mythical creatures to show their true bodies, after all, many mythical creatures can be incarnated as humans.

But then again, Liu Xing had heard about a very special parallel world in the Cthulhu Run game lobby.

What makes this parallel world so special is that most of the parallel worlds are either in modern times or around 1920, and the time point of that parallel world is in the Middle Ages.

Therefore, the mods in that parallel world are basically related to the witch hunting movement, so the difficulty of the mods in that parallel world is very high, after all, that era can really be called a fairy fight, and there are mythical creatures everywhere fighting with the priest paladins of the Inquisition, and ordinary players will be affected by the pond fish if they are not careful, and then die on the spot.

However, this parallel world is not something that players can enter through normal means, so Liu Xing has only heard of such a parallel world, but he has never seen a player say that he has really entered this parallel world.

"Because Gary is a member of the Ghoul Cult, so after Gary got these crosses, he would use them to play with them when he was idle, and he didn't really test the role of these crosses, after all, those ghouls in the Ghoul Cult have a very high status, and Gary didn't have a chance to find ghouls to help him verify the authenticity of these crosses, so I told him that I could help him try whether these crosses were real or fake, lest Gary buy a bunch of fakes and not know, but Gary really lent me these crosses temporarily, So I took the opportunity to change one of the crosses. Dio said with a smile.

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and said with some curiosity: "Then Dior, have you really tried these crosses?" ”

Dio shook his head and said, "How is that possible, although I have a good relationship with those ghouls in the Flower Cemetery, I am not familiar with them to that extent, so I can be sure that if I dared to ask those ghouls to test the effect of the cross, then Chris you can't see me now, so I finally told Gary that I confessed." ”

As soon as Dior's words fell, KP Time suddenly said to Liu Xing: "Do you want to have an inspiration judgment now?" ”

Inspiration?

Liu Xing frowned, knowing that at this time, KP asked him if he wanted to pass the inspiration judgment, which meant that there was a problem with the story that Dior just said.

Therefore, Liu Xing decisively chose an inspiration judgment, although the inspiration value of "Chris" is not too high.

Liu Xing, 16/50, success.

The moment the inspiration was successful, Liu Xing involuntarily stretched out his hand and said, "Dior, can you give me this cross to take a look?" ”

At this moment, another sound of dice falling to the ground sounded.

Liu Xing (Persuasion), 49/70, Success.

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect that this was still a serial judgment, but fortunately, his luck this time was still good.

Because Liu Xing's persuasion was also successful, Dior handed the cross to Liu Xing after I hesitated for a moment.

The moment Liu Xing took the cross, the specific information of the cross appeared in Liu Xing's mind.

Forced teleportation of a cross (one-way/ghoul only), when the tip of the cross is inserted into the ghoul's body, the ghoul will be teleported directly to the designated location.

PS: The item cannot be used by the player.

???

Liu Xing frowned, the effect of this cross was completely different from what Gary told Dior.

Wait a minute.

Liu Xing had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly understood the ins and outs of this matter.

To put it simply, after Gary knew that Dio had befriended those ghouls in the Flower Cemetery, he wanted to use Dio's hand to teleport a ghoul to Eins Castle, so that Gary could use Isabella to control the ghoul, and finally Gary only had to kill Dio to die without proof.

As for Dior's stealing of the beams and changing the pillars, Gary should also know, but because Gary also knew that Dio did this to deal with Locke, Gary pretended not to know, anyway, in the end, it was he who benefited.

So if that's the case, then Liu Xing can be sure that in the first official mod, the ghoul who killed Gary should be Locke!

Liu Xing, who realized this, couldn't help frowning, because Liu Xing found that everything he encountered in this mod had laid the groundwork for the mod he experienced in the "future".

So, if he can stop Dior from doing it to Locke this time, will the "future" change?

No, is this changing the "past" in the "future", or changing the "future" in the "past", or changing the "past" in the "past"?

PS: Thank you for the reward after the autumn rain.
