Chapter 770: Choice
"Liu Xing is right, the difficulty given by KP should not be very reliable, after all, because this module is a little special, this is just a dream, so we definitely have no way to get rewards other than points, so we will definitely choose the easiest difficulty to complete this task, there is no need to challenge the high difficulty for a little points." Yin En said seriously, "So the difficulties given by KP are either made up blindly, or there are other hidden secrets, such as the easiest difficulty of the Imperial Spy Wellington, it is not easy to contact him now, because he is a spy planted by the Empire in the Skaven Kingdom, and we don't know anything about it, so we can't just go up to him." ”
Zhang Wenbing nodded and said: "That's right, even if we meet Wellington now, it is impossible to join his camp like this, unless Wellington takes the initiative to invite us, but this should be unlikely, after all, Wellington's true identity is not visible, and his true identity is likely to be known only to His Majesty the Emperor, even if we are his compatriots, the brave people recognized by His Majesty the Emperor, he may not fully trust us, because this involves a big conspiracy to subvert neighboring countries, The fewer people who know, the better. ”
"So I think the difficulty that KP marked for us is actually a representation of how difficult it will be for us to join the faction, but KP didn't mention how much trouble we will encounter if we want to join this faction, this is the Cthulhu Run game lobby has always been the favorite word game, not to mention that in the mod in the Tyndalus Hound area, there is basically no such concept of shortcuts, although we have many ways to complete the main quest of the mod, but the difficulty of these methods is almost the same, so no matter which faction we choose now, the overall difficulty of the mission should be about the same. ”
As Zhang Wenbing said, Liu Xing also found that the mods after arriving at the Tindarus Hound area are no longer like the previous two mods, there will be one or two routes that are relatively easy to complete the main quest, such as in the first castle lord mod that Liu Xing experienced, Liu Xing and other players did not follow the normal route to stay in the castle until the next morning to clear the level, but opportunistically tried to run away in advance.
And the mod in the Hound area of Tyndalus, it has almost blocked the back door that players want to take advantage of, and even sometimes forces players to go to the dark on a road, just like the last time Liu Xing and others teamed up for the mod, Liu Xing and others have been being held forward by the new plots that continue to appear, and they have no chance to exert their subjective initiative.
"So then again, which side should we choose?" Ding Kun frowned and said, "Anyway, there is definitely no way for us to occupy the mountain by ourselves, after all, we are just a few people, and there is no way to fight the army of the Skaven Kingdom, let alone the empire hidden in the shadows; As for King Louis, he is now a dead man, and I don't think we have the power to bring him back to life. ”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Liu Xing thought for a while, and then said: "I think the easiest thing to join now is the Covance camp, because now we have a good relationship with Cowens, if we want to join his camp, Covance will definitely raise his hands in favor, but he also has a big disadvantage in this battle for the throne, first of all, his strength is too small, and it is basically a group of recruits with only five combat strength; Then Cowens' territory is so big, and the location is also awkward, it is basically impossible to develop on the back, so we have no chance of making a comeback, and we don't even have time to rest; Finally, there is the question of Covance's background, because Covance is from a civilian background, although he can get a lot of support from the common people, but those aristocratic and wealthy businessmen will not easily invest in Covance, because they are not all the way, and there are better investment objects such as Bonaparte, so in my opinion, it is difficult for Covance to gain momentum. ”
Ding Kun on the side nodded, and then said: "I just searched for the situation of Bonaparte in my memory, and found that Bonaparte was indeed a member of the royal family of the previous dynasty, and he was a direct descendant of the second heir of the Skaven Kingdom back then, so Bonaparte's reputation within the Skaven Kingdom is very high, and his territory of the city of Sigaco has now reached full autonomy, so there are already people planning to build a country in Bonaparte's territory, and Louis has no way to do this; Of course, this Bonaparte's personal ability is also quite good, and he is definitely a rare talent, so before Louis ascended the throne, some ministers advised Louis's father to let him return the throne to Louis, and Louis's father really thought about doing this. ”
As a result, Louis's father was not willing to return his family's throne, and Louis also sent those ministers to prison after ascending the throne, so Louis's reputation has been declining since he ascended the throne; Back to the topic, Bonaparte is indeed a forbearant person, he has always been buried in his fiefdom and does not participate in the affairs of the Scarwin Kingdom, which also gives Louis no chance to attack Bonaparte, but Bonaparte has cultivated a strong cavalry force in his own territory, and in the Scaven Kingdom, which is dominated by plain terrain, the importance of the cavalry force is self-evident, so this cavalry force should be Bonaparte's biggest hole card. ”
"As for if we want to choose the Bonaparte camp, it's actually quite good to join the Bonaparte camp, because Bonaparte is somewhat similar to Meng Weijun in the Warring States Period, they have a large number of doormen, and as long as they are skilled doormen, they are all comers, so if we go to Bonaparte, we only need to find a suitable reason, Bonaparte should let us join his camp, but at the beginning Bonaparte will definitely not believe us, After all, our identity is not an ordinary adventurer, but a brave man appointed by the emperor, and Bonaparte will certainly not be so big as to think that he has the air of a tyrant and can attract us to bow down. ”
"Brother Ding, you are right, it is easy for us to get in and get out on Bonaparte's side, and if we can't get out as soon as possible, the war situation in the Skaven Kingdom will go in an irreversible direction, and we can only follow Bonaparte to die, so if we want to join Bonaparte's camp, we must first think about how to convince Bonaparte to believe in us, at least be willing to accept our proposals." Yin En said seriously.
Liu Xing shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands and said: "Then we can only go to see Bonaparte with the nomination, but it is not so easy to get the nomination that can make Bonaparte look good, so I only think of two kinds of nominations now - the first is Louis's neck, Bonaparte may treat us as his own after seeing it, but it is more likely to treat us as a substitute for the dead to sacrifice the flag to brush up prestige; As for the second kind of nomination, it is about Wellington, because if we tell Bonaparte the news of Wellington, then we will be listed as wanted by the Empire the next day, and Bonaparte will save us at that time, after all, we can let his future actions be supported by all forces in the Skaven Kingdom, and help him reintegrate the Skaven Kingdom faster... Of course, in the end, our result should be that the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, and the bird is hidden, and it is sent back to the empire as a substitute for the dead. ”
Yin En raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "According to Liu Xing, we can't go to this Bonaparte, because we only have two results when we go, one is to be used as a substitute for the dead, and the other is to be idle all the time, in short, we have no way to complete this part of the task." ”
"I don't, don't talk nonsense." Liu Xing replied with a smile: "I just think that it is very troublesome for us to participate in this battle for the throne of the Skaven Kingdom as foreigners, not to mention that it is too easy to take refuge in Bonaparte, who represents the old royal family of the Skaven Kingdom among the major forces, not to mention that there are many talented people around Bonaparte, and it is too difficult for us to gain a place around Bonaparte and influence Bonaparte's decision-making, so I personally think it's better to forget it." ”
"Agreed." Ding Kun and Zhang Wenbing said in unison.
Yin En touched his nose and pretended to be helpless and said: "Since you all think so, then I also agree with Liu Xing and your opinion, we will also exclude Bonaparte, then in the end the problem will return to Wellington." ”
Liu Xing said without hesitation: "The most difficult part of joining Wellington's forces is how do we know that Wellington is a spy of the Empire?" I just checked Wellington's information, and found that Wellington is now an earl of the Skaven Kingdom, and his family has existed since the early days of the Skaven Kingdom, but because this family has always been inconspicuous, so the title has been hovering between the viscount and the earl, but now it seems that Wellington's family has been a pawn of the empire in the Skaven Kingdom from the beginning, so this family will be so low-key, just to keep it until now, In this way, they will be able to maximize the benefits of the empire at critical moments. ”
"However, the empire should have found that the Skaven Kingdom is terminally ill, so Wellington has shown a strong talent for leading troops after he became an adult, and is now the general of a main army in the Skaven Kingdom, and is deeply trusted by the previous king, so Louis also attaches great importance to Wellington, so if nothing else, Louis should let Wellington hold an important position in this war, coupled with the secret support of the Empire, Wellington has a lot of hole cards in his hand, As long as we can join him, although we can't just lie down and win, we won't encounter too much trouble... Well, I feel like I'm talking a bunch of nonsense again, and now the question is how do I know who Wellington really is? ”
The crowd fell silent again.
After a while, KP Husky smiled and said, "There are still ten minutes, do you hope you can make a choice as soon as possible?" ”
At this time, Yin En suddenly spoke: "KP, do we have to choose a side now?" So do we have a chance to regret the backstab after we choose? I don't mind being called a slave with three surnames. ”
It's a werewolf.
Liu Xing and the others looked at Yin En and thought so.
KP Huskies probably didn't expect Yin Eun to say this, so they didn't know what to say for a while.
After a while, KP Husky said: "Sure enough, it is worthy of being a player of the Cthulhu Run group game, and there is no psychological pressure at all when you play backstabbing, but I also thought about your question carefully, and found that this is actually not impossible, after all, this mod is generated by dreams after all, and for those of you who know that this is a dream, betrayal or something will not cause too much psychological pressure, so I agree that you can change your formation at any time, However, each party will react differently depending on your betrayal, so please think about the consequences before making a decision, after all, you all know what happened to Lu Bu. ”
"In addition, after completing the main quest at this stage, I will also give different rewards according to the different factions you choose, if you can finish in a certain faction, then you will also get more rewards." KP Husky added.
Hearing this, Yin En said decisively: "In this case, then we will choose to join Wellington's forces, if we succeed, then we should be able to complete this part of the task very easily, and if we can't find a chance, we can also switch to Covance as a spare tire, I believe that Covance will open the door to us at any time." ”
After Liu Xing and the others glanced at each other, they agreed with Yin En's idea.
It would be great to be able to join the Wellington forces.
After making a decision, Liu Xing and the others went to dinner.
Fortunately, Covance didn't arrange the magic version of the Stargazing Pie at night, just some very common ingredients.
Finally, I had a full meal.
In the next few days, Liu Xing and the others wandered around the castle without getting any useful information, but the relationship with NPCs such as Covance was pulled in a lot.
Especially under Liu Xing's deliberate friendship, the scum is about to form a different surname with Liu Xing, no, it should be a brother of different races.
Therefore, Liu Xing is now sitting in a carriage with the scumbag, and the eight hundred recruits led by Covens are heading to the capital of the Skaven Kingdom, Mud City.
Obviously, the name of the capital of the Kingdom of Skaven was taken from the capital of France, but it sounded a little abnormal when it was reversed.
