Chapter 888: A Special Fanatic
"Although I know about the Living Curse like that, I think the Living Curse is a kind of existence between a creature and a spirit, because the Living Curse that chased me is usually in a spirit state, and can directly pass through various obstacles with great speed, but when it attacks me, it transforms into an entity, and it is also affected by the toxin, because I once used a trap with a poison dart frog to defeat it." Cord said seriously.
Liu Xing nodded, and had already figured out how to use the shells of these needle-tip wheat.
At this time, Mette, who had already packed the shelled needlepoint wheat, suddenly patted his head and said, "By the way, Mr. Liu Xing, I almost forgot that Master Chris also asked me to bring you something, so I will go back and bring it here first, and you and Cod will wait for me here for a while." ”
After Mette finished speaking, he left in a hurry.
Cord shrugged his shoulders, picked up a bag of hulled needlepoint wheat and said, "Then let's take these shelled needlepoint wheat back to the brewing center, Mette's house is quite far from here, so it will be at least half an hour before it comes back." ”
Liu Xing nodded, and followed Kede to bring the packed needlepoint wheat back to the warehouse of the brewing center.
The warehouse of the brewing center is also quite interesting, it is not like the granary in Liu Xing's impression, where all kinds of grain are piled up into hills, but like a logistics center, the warehouse is divided into several parts, each part is separated by a thick cloth.
"Cod, are there any other kinds of grain in the cellar of the brewing center besides needlepoint wheat?" Liu Xing asked curiously.
Kede picked up a notebook from the table on the side, handed it to Liu Xing and said: "In the past, the products of the brewing center were quite rich, and there were all kinds of liquor, red wine, yellow wine, and sake, but because the liquor brewed by needlepoint wheat tasted the best, and the shell of needlepoint wheat had other functions, so the Black Stone Mountain Prison slowly only planted needlepoint wheat, so the remaining wine-making grains were piled up in the warehouse, but because this warehouse was built at the beginning of the magic, so that the grain in the warehouse will not deteriorate over time." And the warehouse is big enough, so the grain isn't processed, and maybe someone wants to drink something else that day? ”
Liu Xing opened the notebook and found that there were many names of grains that Liu Xing had never heard of, and how much they still kept in the warehouse.
In addition, Liu Xing also saw a list of other drinks in stock.
In this list, Liu Xing saw a drink called Taoyuan wine.
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and said, "Kede, can I take a bottle or two of wine from the warehouse?" ”
"Of course, the wine stored in the warehouse has long been unattended, so it's no problem for you to take it all away, but Liu Xing, you have to take the wine away after work tonight, lest those fanatics see it and chew the root of their tongues behind their backs, you must know that these fanatics have become long-tongued women now." Cord said unconcernedly.
Liu Xing nodded, and followed the instructions on the list to find the storage place of Taoyuan Liquor.
The container of Taoyuan wine is a small wine jar with Chinese characteristics, and there is a small sign next to it that reads the characteristics of Taoyuan wine - in the place where the Heishishan Prison was established, the construction personnel of the T area found the ruins of an ancient village called Taoyuan Village when laying the foundation, and found several wooden barrels containing ancient Taoyuan wine, so the person in charge of the T area decided to set the characteristics of the T area as winemaking.
Through the study of ancient Taoyuan liquor, the person in charge of the T area took its essence and removed its dross, and studied the formula of Taoyuan liquor, which can make people more sober after drinking Taoyuan liquor.
That's right, Taoyuan wine will not make people drunk, but will make people more sober the more they drink!
Therefore, the sales of Taoyuan wine in the Black Rock Mountain Prison are getting worse and worse, because those fanatical believers drink just to pass the boring time after getting drunk, and as a result, the more you drink, the more sober you are?!
Therefore, Taoyuan Liquor was soon completely discontinued, but what made Liu Xing care was that the materials of Taoyuan Liquor also included needlepoint wheat, so it is no wonder that Liu Xing felt that the wine smell emanating from the Liquor Center was so familiar when he first came to the Liquor Center.
Liu Xing picked up a jar of Taoyuan wine, and the specific information of Taoyuan wine appeared in his mind - Taoyuan wine is aged, and the drinker will get the buff of "everyone is drunk and I am sober", and the duration of the buff is determined according to the amount of alcohol.
Everyone is drunk and I am alone: The player or NPC who receives the buff will remain absolutely awake and will receive a bonus when performing certain decisions.
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 it had the opposite effect.
Liu Xing moved out the only two jars of Taoyuan wine left in the warehouse.
At this time, Mette had already arrived at the warehouse, and what Chris asked him to bring to Liu Xing was actually a puppet.
That's right, this puppet was a "gift" that Lyon's parents brought when they returned from a trip.
At that time, Liu Xing felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this puppet, but until the end of the module, the puppet did not appear abnormal, so Liu Xing almost forgot about this puppet now.
However, since the blood-colored ghoul specially arranged for Mette to bring this puppet to himself, it shows that this puppet is really not simple.
But then again, Liu Xing felt that this puppet seemed to be a little different from the appearance in his memory, in short, it was not so ugly.
At this time, Mette told Liu Xing about the origin of this puppet.
When the Scarlet Ghoul met Miss Wang, he would go home and pack up some things that were very important to him, such as the relics left by his parents.
As a result, when it was almost cleaned up, the puppet suddenly fell in front of the blood-colored ghoul.
Because the blood-colored ghoul still retains some memories of Liu Xing's manipulation of his body, he knows that it is impossible for this puppet to appear in front of him under normal circumstances, unless the puppet is abnormal.
So, the Scarlet Ghoul took the puppet with him, and after some research, determined that the puppet was a magic item.
To put it simply, the puppet will perform simple actions such as moving at the behest of the caster.
Through this puppet, the Scarlet Ghoul realizes that Leon's parents may be magicians, so it seeks out Leon's parents and asks them if they can remove them from the Scarlet Ghoul status for themselves.
So, on a dark and windy night, the blood-colored ghoul infiltrated the home of Leon's parents.
As the Scarlet Ghoul thought, Leon's parents were indeed magicians, and they had a very good relationship with Wesker and the others, and the reason why they gave these enchanted puppets to Liu Xing and the others was to let these puppets scare Liu Xing and the others.
Because Leon's parents also know about the Scarlet Ghoul, the Scarlet Ghoul had a good chat with Leon's parents... It's a pity that the few methods proposed by Lyon's parents have not worked...
Later, the Scarlet Ghoul began to travel around the world, and he always carried the puppet with him, as it was able to get in touch with Leon's parents, who died of illness five years ago.
After the death of Leon's parents, the puppet lost the blessing of magic and became an ordinary puppet, but at this time, the blood-colored ghoul also learned all kinds of magic, so the blood-colored ghoul re-applied multiple spells to the puppet, and asked Mette to take it to the Blackstone Mountain Prison to help Liu Xing.
Although the blood-colored ghoul's intentions are very good, but because the blood-colored ghoul has never been to the dream realm, the blood-colored ghoul is not clear about the situation in the dream realm, so this magic puppet temporarily lost its due role after entering the dream realm, and became an ordinary puppet again, and only when Liu Xing brought it back to the real world could it regain its effect.
Liu Xing sighed, now he finally knows why this puppet ran around back then, it turned out that it was really because of the puppet's magic cast by Leon's parents.
At that time, I almost regarded Leon's parents as enemies.
As for what new effects the blood-colored ghoul has added to this puppet, Liu Xing estimates that it should be the call function and protection function, after all, it is really a bit unsafe to talk through other means, and he is an absolute weak chicken in the eyes of the blood-colored ghoul...
Unfortunately, the Cthulhu Run game lobby still restricts this puppet, and does not plan to use it in Blackstone Mountain Prison.
"Mr. Liu Xing, I just got the preliminary investigation report of today's murder when I went back, are you interested in knowing in advance now?" Mette 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 that living curse is, and I don't know if you have investigated it." ”
Mette shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "At present, we are not sure about the attack method of the living curse, because we specially asked about the situation in Area X, and Area X said that the living curse was generated because of an accident, so they don't know the specific situation of this living curse, and at present, they only know that this living curse is likely to be a completely random choice of attack targets; As for the investigation at the scene of the crime, we found that the Living Curse did not eat the souls of those fanatical believers, so we decided that this Living Curse killed those fanatical believers only out of instinct, which means that we cannot predict the next target of this living curse. ”
"Then we determined that the Living Curse kills the fanatics by creating illusions, and these visions come from the deep fears of the fanatics, so the fanatics can be said to be scared to death by life... Well, I also think this is a bit incredible, after all, the fanatics who can enter the Black Rock Mountain Prison, saying that they have no heart and no lungs are good, I really can't figure out what these fanatics are afraid of? But this may be the power of that living curse, so Liu Xing, the person in charge of Area O that you met today, that is, the human-faced rat, intends to apply psychological hints to all the fanatical believers in the Black Stone Mountain Prison in order to achieve truth. The realm where the sky is not afraid of the earth. ”
"However, the heads of the other districts rejected the idea, as it would be too cumbersome, and it wouldn't necessarily work very well, since we hadn't figured out the exact abilities of the Living Curse yet; Then there is the investigation of the fanatics, and we find that there is no deep connection between the fanatics, they are just a group of ordinary fanatics, there is nothing worth living, but the only surviving fanatic is a bit interesting, because the fanatics are not affiliated with any secret churches. ”
Codd raised his eyebrows and said with some surprise: "Oh, are there still fanatical believers who haven't joined the secret church these days?" ”
Mette nodded and said, "Yes, most people only become fanatical believers after entering the secret church, because they can only see the true face of this world after entering the secret church, of course, there will be some fanatical believers who are self-taught, but they will also choose to join the secret church in the end, because after they know the truth of this world, they will clearly realize that it is not a good choice for them to fight alone; And the fact is that those fanatical believers who are full of self-confidence and want to break through single-handedly will basically not live 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, this Bowie is a mixed race between the island nation and England, and his father David is a strange child. Keane used to be an ordinary believer in the Necro-Food, but for some reason he broke away from the Necro-Fooding Cult, and was even hunted down by the Necro-Food, so combined with Bowie's situation, we suspect that Bowie's father chose to flee to the island country because he stole something from the Corpse Cult, and Bowie was also self-taught because of those things, and 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' inheritance is very rich, Bowie still lives a free life, which is why Bowie's local police directly ignored him when he first started committing crimes, because he really doesn't look like a terrifying serial killer; Of course, at this time, it can already be seen that the biggest difference between Bao Yi and ordinary fanatics - calm and restrained, although his heart has always longed for blood, but he will not be dominated by his inner desires, so when the local police strengthen the investigation, he can not commit crimes 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.
