Chapter 378: The Last Letter

In the Cthulhu Run game, the importance of intelligence goes without saying.

After reaching a preliminary cooperation intention with Alice, Liu Xing asked with some curiosity: "By the way, Miss Alice, you are now undercover in the Deep Sea Gospel Society, aren't you worried about your identity being exposed?" ”

Alice smiled and said confidently: "Of course I'm not afraid, Meteor classmates, you must know that my current acting skills can go to the actress, after all, the teacher who taught me acting back then was an Oscar actress, and my current setting in the Deep Sea Gospel Society is all tailor-made by my senior brother, and you should have heard of my senior brother's name, he is now known as the strongest new star in the reasoning world." ”

"Fisherman?" Liu Xing subconsciously said a title.

In the memory of "Watanabe Meteor", in addition to remembering those master-level reasoners, such as Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, etc., I remember a reasoner with the pen name "Fisherman".

This reasoner, whose pen name is "Fisherman", can be said to be the most famous newcomer in the reasoning industry at present, because he has published three reasoning books that are all popular and popular, and the latest one has been adapted into a movie, and the main creative lineup is extremely strong, and there are several world-class actors and actresses.

The most important thing is that the reasoning of "Fisherman" is not that kind of orthodox reasoning, because "Fisherman" combines a lot of science fiction and horror elements in him, and the murderers are often not normal human beings, but the reasoning process of "Fisherman" is reasonable and convincing.

Therefore, although the reasoning of "Fisherman" caused a lot of controversy at the beginning, as the fans of "Fisherman" increased, those doubts were gradually suppressed... No way, in this era of developed social networks, fans can really do whatever they want.

However, the reason why "Watanabe Meteor" cares about this "fisherman" is because "fisherman" has never revealed his true face and real name, and at present, he can only know that "fisherman" is an English man who should be about twenty-five years old through a video of "fisherman" wearing a mask on the turtle.

And most importantly, the events and monsters in "The Fisherman" give Liu Xing a sense of déjà vu, simply put, watching "The Fisherman" is like watching the Cthulhu Mythos.

So "Watanabe Meteor" thinks that this "fisherman" should be a peer.

And now, Liu Xing can be sure that this "fisherman" is the senior brother in Alice's mouth.

And so it was.

Alice nodded with a smile and said: "That's right, the fisherman is my senior brother, you should have seen his reasoning meteor classmates, it's not me bragging, his is really interlocking and logical, otherwise those old antiques in the reasoning world will not admit that my senior brother is reasoning, not horror or science fiction." ”

Although Liu Xing had not seen the "fisherman", since Alice had said so, Liu Xing could see that Alice admired his senior brother, so Liu Xing nodded decisively and complimented him.

"So Liu Xing, you can rest assured, as long as there are no major accidents on my side, it will be impossible for the people of the Deep Sea Gospel Society to discover my true face, but Meteor Student, since you solved those fanatical NPCs on the Yueshi cruise ship, it means that you have something, after all, I know what level those fanatical believers on the Yueshi cruise ship are, so now Meteor classmate, can you answer my questions? I wonder how you managed to get rid of the fanatics. Alice looked at Liu Xing and said seriously.

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect Alice to be curious about these things.

However, regarding the Yueshi incident, Liu Xing has nothing to hide, "Oh, let's put it this way, half of the credit for the reason why I was able to solve those fanatical believers on the Yueshi cruise ship is still due to the two Chinese men, because those two Chinese men also knew the conspiracy of those fanatics, so they persuaded my classmates and teachers in advance, so that my classmates and teachers understood their current situation, which allowed me to hide in the shadows with peace of mind." ”

"Then, it was that morning, what I didn't expect was that the two Chinese men were actually armed with weapons, and as soon as they came in, they took control of the situation and forced a fanatic to use a poisonous incense, which stunned everyone, but fortunately, I guessed in advance that these fanatics might use poisonous incense, so I took the antidote in advance and escaped the catastrophe."

"Just when I pretended to faint and fell to the ground, the last two remaining fanatics actually had an internal conflict, so that deep diver hybrid was directly killed by another fanatic, and then I found an opportunity, while the last fanatic didn't notice me, I got up and killed him, so I was just lucky."

Alice nodded, and said with a smile: "Luck is also part of strength, if you are unlucky, you will die early, but we must solve an important problem now, that is, how to escape from Fisherman's Village, I know that Meteor Classmate you were still prejudiced against me just now and hid something from me, so now, Meteor Class, can you tell me the truth?" ”

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, since Alice said so, Liu Xing felt that he had no need to hide it.

So, Liu Xing told Alice about the current situation, of course, about Ishikawa Ling's sneaking into Alice's room, Liu Xing must continue to hide Alice.

After speaking, Liu Xing didn't forget to ask Alice, "Miss Alice, your master, Professor Clark, is a professor of occultism at Miskatonic University, so did he introduce you to this mythical creature in Fisherman's Village?" ”

In Liu Xing's opinion, it would be great if Alice could know Scigoth, after all, the Scigers known by the ancient Cyris was Shogoths hundreds of millions of years ago, and it was easy to mislead, after all, Fisherman's Village's Scigers had evolved no matter what he said; And if Alice knew about Shogoth, she could provide more useful information that would be in line with the current situation in Fisherman's Village.

Therefore, Liu Xing looked at Alice, who was frowning and contemplative, and silently prayed in his heart that Alice must know about the existence of Xiugoth.

Then, Liu Xing heard the sound of the dice falling to the ground, and it seemed that KP Green Light was secretly casting to decide whether Alice knew about Shogues.

After a while, Alice finally spoke: "If nothing else, the monster in the shape of a black strip in your mouth, Mr. Meteor, is very likely to be a mythical creature named Xiugoth. ”

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, it seems that his luck today is not bad, and his two secret throws were successful.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing hurriedly asked: "It turns out that these mythical creatures are called Xiugoth, so Miss Alice, do you know what weaknesses these Xiugoths have, and there is a chance that we will have a head-on conflict with these Xiugoths in the future." ”

When Alice heard Liu Xing say this, she first sighed, and then said helplessly: "How can I say it, although my master knows about the existence of Xiugoth, he doesn't know much about the specific situation of Xiugoth, because Xiugoth, a mythical creature, is a bit special, it is basically a subsidiary race of other mythical creatures, or a servant of some magicians, in short, even my master is not very clear about the information of Xiugoth." ”

"However, Miskatonic University also has a certain amount of research on Shogoth, because there was an expedition from Miskatonic University that was attacked by Shogoth, but fortunately, there was a professor of occultism who was proficient in all kinds of magic in that expedition, and he directly subdued Shogoth."

"After studying the subdued Shogoth, we found that Shogoth's body is extremely soft, it can be transformed into almost any kind of object, and when necessary, Shogoths can also harden his body, the strength is comparable to steel, and Shogoths can also weaken fire and electric shocks to cause damage, ordinary pistols or even submachine guns cannot cause effective damage to Shogoth."

"What's more, Shogoth can also self-heal at a very fast speed, so if you can't kill Shogoth in one go, then it will be very troublesome to solve Shogoth; In addition to the information provided by Miskatonik University, my master also learned from his friends that Shogoth is extremely adaptable and can quickly adapt to his surroundings, so each place may have different abilities. ”

Liu Xing nodded, it seems that his luck this time is really good, Alice has a very comprehensive understanding of Xiugoth, and basically describes the characteristics of Xiugoth, which will play a good guiding role in the next preparations.

"By the way, Meteor Classmate, I heard that you have found a few strange letters, in fact, there is also a letter from me, which seems to be written in Huaxia characters." Alice said suddenly.

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect that the third letter would be in Alice's hand, but this can be regarded as confirming Liu Xing's previous speculation, these three letters are used to explain the (misleading) background of the module, as long as the time point is reached, these three letters will be automatically sent to the door.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing immediately said: "Oh, Miss Alice, hurry up and take out that letter, according to our previous speculation, the content of this second letter is very important, and it may even mention why Xiugues appeared in the Fisherman's Village." ”

Alice nodded, pointed upstairs and said: "The second letter is in my room, I found this letter from a book, and that book was borrowed by me from Matsui Yui to pass the time, after all, Meteor classmates, you all know, there is no entertainment at all in this fisherman's village, and I originally planned to return the book to Matsui Yui tomorrow, so I wanted to finish the book today, but I found the letter, now I will go up and get the letter, and by the way, call the people on the third floor down, Meteor classmates, you go and call all the people on the second floor down, I believe they are also curious about the content of this letter. ”

Liu Xing nodded, but Liu Xing knew that Alice must not have found the letter by such a "coincidence", but obtained the letter by some means at the beginning, but Alice had been waiting for the price to sell, and now she was finally willing to hand over the letter.

See through it, don't say it.

So, Liu Xing came to the second floor.

Before Liu Xing knocked on the door, Ishikawa Ling opened the door and whispered, "Sect Master, what did Alice say to you now, did Alice find out our true identity?" ”

Liu Xing shook his head, glanced at Zhang Jingxu's room, and said in a low voice: "Let's talk about this matter later, now you just need to know that Alice is not from the Deep Sea Gospel Society, okay, now come down first, Alice may find the second letter." ”

Ishikawa Ling raised his eyebrows, looked at Liu Xing with some surprise, but didn't say anything more, and went directly to knock on Lu Tianya's door.

Soon, everyone gathered in the hall on the first floor, and Alice was holding a yellowed letter in her hand.

"Well, now we are calling you down because Miss Alice has found the second letter, and after the detailed conversation I have just had with Miss Alice, I have found that Miss Alice is a trustworthy companion, so I have told Miss Alice all about it." Liu Xing coughed lightly and spoke.

And Alice didn't talk nonsense, and directly handed over the letter to Zhang Jingxu, after all, among the people present, only Zhang Jingxu and Lu Tianya knew Chinese characters, and anyone with a discerning eye could see the relationship between Lu Tianya and Zhang Jingxu.

Zhang Jingxu took the letter without hesitation and opened it directly.

What Liu Xing didn't expect was that the second letter was written on four sheets of paper, you must know that the first letter and the second letter were only written on less than one piece of paper.

However, Liu Xing soon noticed that two of the four pieces of paper were actually maps, one of which seemed to be a map of the Fisherman's Village, and the other map seemed to Liu Xing to be an authentic drawing.

Could it be that Inoue Ken'er or Li Yongjie knew about the underground ruins of Fisherman's Village?

"Let's put these two maps aside for the time being, let's take a look at the content of this letter first, first of all, this letter was written by Inoue Jian'er to Li Yongjie, and looking at the time of this letter, it should indeed be the second letter." Zhang Jingxu opened his mouth and said.

"At the beginning of this letter, Inoue mentioned that in the southwest of the old site of the Fisherman's Village, a bottomless sinkhole suddenly appeared, and some villagers saw some kind of black creature emerging from the sinkhole, and if nothing else, the black creature was the mythical creature that Panda Pig saw."
