Chapter 887: Living Curse

Ten percent odds?

Liu Xing thought about it carefully, if this "ten percent" chance refers to the probability of getting that treasure in this side quest, then how did Turner calculate this probability?

Could it be that Turner already got the source code for the Cthulhu Run game lobby, so he even knows how the success rate of this decision is calculated?

But the question is, Liu Xing feels that as a player, he should be the biggest variable in this incident, so with the small variables of players such as Zhang Jingxu, how can Turner calculate such an accurate probability?

On top of that, since Turner was able to calculate that he would enter the Blackstone Mountain Prison, and that he would receive a life-changing artifact from the Blackstone Mountain Prison, he should be able to calculate that he would be killed in the Scarlet Ghoul's mod.

So, could this 10% probability actually refer to the probability that Turner, who won the Scarlet Ghoul mod, would get the treasure after entering the Blackstone Mountain Prison?

Isn't this probability a little too low?

Liu Xing frowned, if it was really the latter, then how difficult would it be to obtain that treasure, so that an Isist who could make a bug in the game hall of the Cthulhu Run Group only one percent sure?

Liu Xing suddenly felt a little bit of a pain in his brain.

"I see, I just said that Mette's attitude towards me was a little too good, you know, I just did what I could." Liu Xing shook his head and said, "But then again, why didn't he show me a showdown at the first time, but let you test me?" ”

Liu Xing can now see that Kede is testing himself intentionally or unintentionally along the way.

Codd shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "Isn't that because we're worried that you're actually Turner?" After all, since Turner can use your body to travel to the past, then it also has the ability to travel to the present, not to mention that it also specifically mentioned the Blackstone Mountain Prison in its notes, so we are all worried that you are actually Turner, so Mette and I decided to test you with a red face and a black face, and then confirm your identity according to the information that Chris told us. ”

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and asked with some curiosity: "Oh, then what kind of person am I in Chris's eyes?" ”

"I don't think you want to know that." "I'll just say a little bit, Chris thinks you're a person who likes to collect hole cards, so Mette and I decided to take you to harvest the pinpoint, because we're sure you'll find a way to get the pinpoint husk after you know the effect of the needlepoint wheat husk." ”

"Well, it looks like I don't have a good reputation in Chris's eyes." Liu Xing shrugged his shoulders and said, "No wonder you didn't remind me of the situation of the needlepoint wheat husk at the beginning, it turned out that you wanted me to experience the effect of the needlepoint wheat shell, so now I can get some needlepoint wheat husks?" ”

Cod nodded and said: "Of course, although Mr. Liu Xing has a bad reputation in Chris's mouth, Chris still attaches great importance to you, so Chris asked me and Mette to try to assist you in your actions in the Black Rock Mountain Prison after meeting you, so we will find a way to meet any of your requests, as for the shell of the needle wheat we have to delay for a while before giving it to you, because ordinary methods can't make the needle wheat shell. So we had to go back to the brewery to get the shells, and we had to use special containers to put the shells. ”

Liu Xing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Kede say this, after all, Mette was also a small administrator in the Black Stone Mountain Prison, and he should know a lot of useful information for himself.

As for Kede, Liu Xing felt that he should be a good bodyguard, because Kede was originally a famous mercenary, and looking at Kede's skills just now, he could know that he was not waiting for death in the Black Rock Mountain Prison.

However, Liu Xing is now more curious about what kind of curse Cod fell under in that ancient ruin, so that he would hide in the Black Stone Mountain Prison in the fantasy realm, or what kind of curse would only take effect in the real world.

As a powerful mercenary, Kede's kung fu must have been cultivated at home, so Kede could see at a glance what Liu Xing was thinking.

"I know you'd love to ask me what kind of curse I've had, but Chris told me it's not the time for you to know, so I'll tell you the details of that curse when we get out of Blackstone Mountain Prison, and I can only let you know one thing for nowβ€”it's a living curse, and it's the same source as the murderer of today's murder." Cord said with a sigh.

Liu Xing frowned, and said with some surprise: "What, the curse of life?" Could it be a mythical creature powered by magic? ”

Ced thought for a moment and said seriously: "It can also be said that this curse will produce an existence similar to the Hound of Tyndalus, it will constantly hunt down cursed people or mythical creatures, and it is an immortal existence like the Hound of Tyndalus, even if you can defeat it in a moment, it can also come back after a period of time, so unless you can lift the curse, then you will have to face this endless pursuit for the rest of your life, and you will never die!" ”

"But this curse also has certain limitations, for example, the scope of this curse in me is only in the real world, so it didn't enter the dream realm to continue to chase me, and its strength is not too strong, so when I figure out its attack routine, it is almost like an ordinary ghoul in my eyes, but often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet, that guy comes to me twice in three days to trouble, I dare not guarantee that I can always retreat under its attack, So I can only hide in the dream realm to seek stability. ”

"Routine?"

Liu Xing keenly captured the key words in Kede's mouth.

"That's right, because the existence of these curses is not a real creature in the strict sense, so Liu Xing, you can directly understand it as a dull machine, it will always follow a set of procedures that have been prescribed for a long time to hunt down the cursed, so the attack method of this curse is very simple, so I am sure that the murderer of today's murder is a living curse, so those victims will appear exactly the same death; However, I think it's very likely that this Living Curse is a half-finished product, because it is a victim who is randomly selected based on certain conditions, and the victim must have met certain conditions before being killed by the Living Curse. Codd said, touching his chin.

Liu Xing nodded, and said as if he didn't understand: "Kede, you mean to say that the living curse is like the boss in "Chainsaw", it picks out a group of victims according to its own ideas, and then asks these victims to play a game according to its requirements, and the victims will be killed if they fail?" ”

"It can be understood that way." Kede frowned and said, "Now Mette is trying to find a way to determine the specific situation of this living curse, and the Black Stone Mountain Prison is also trying to find a way to capture, or rather limit the scope of this living curse, so during this period, Liu Xing, you and your friends should not wander around, so as not to be targeted by this living curse." ”

Liu Xing thought for a moment and asked with some curiosity: "If you say it, this living curse should have been created in Area X, right?" ”

Cod looked in the direction of Area X, nodded and said: "That's right, Area X is a real secret area in the Black Rock Mountain Prison, and only the core members of the Human Association can enter it, even Mette has only heard that Area X is conducting various important research, as for the specific research, it is not known, but yesterday after that voice appeared, Mette was transferred to Area X along with other mythical creatures for a carpet search, and learned that it was an out-of-control living curse." ”

As soon as Liu Xing wanted to open his mouth to ask, Kede continued: "Liu Xing, you want to ask how the Living Body Curse came about, right? In fact, to put it simply, the Living Curse is an enhanced version of the Human-Faced Mouse, which is transformed by a certain creature through a specific spell, but the requirements for creating a Living Curse are very high, and the difficulty of casting spells is not low, so Chris knows only three Living Curses, and these Living Curses basically exist in the ancient ruins, and I don't know how those core members of the Human Association came up with the idea of creating a Living Curse. ”

As soon as Cod's voice fell, another crisp "ding" came from the direction of Area X.

"It seems that the living curse has not been caught yet, so we can only hope that we will not become its target now." Cod said helplessly.

Liu Xing nodded, not knowing what to say for a while.

Because there were almost no traffic jams on the roads of Blackstone Hill Jail, the pickup van was quickly reaching the outside of a small bungalow next to the brewing center.

By this time, Mette had been waiting here for a long time.

After watching Kede make a gesture to himself, Mette said to Liu Xing respectfully: "Mr. Liu Xing, I believe that Kede has already told you the specific situation, and we will do our best to help you." ”

Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "Then I'll trouble you, so can you give me more work?" I have a lot of use for it. ”

Mette shook her head a little awkwardly and said, "This is really not good, because I don't have any extra work on hand." ”

"The work we get is uniformly distributed by the work branch of the Black Stone Mountain Prison, so every day Mette handles no more or no less, just enough to pay every worker in the brewing center, and Mette has no way to directly raise your salary." Codd chimed in.

Liu Xing sighed helplessly, sure enough, the Cthulhu Run Group Game Hall also thought of this possible loophole, it seems that there is no way for him to be a local tyrant in the Black Rock Mountain Prison.

But then again, Cod, who has been in Blackstone Mountain Prison for several years, must have a lot of work on his hands.

When Liu Xing looked at Kede with a smile on his face, Kede hurriedly said: "Liu Xing, don't expect me to give you a job, because I am a staff member of the Black Stone Mountain Prison like Met, otherwise I would not be able to take you to harvest the needlepoint wheat, after all, if the shell of the needlepoint wheat falls into the hands of those fanatics, I am afraid that there will be several so-called accidents in the Black Stone Mountain Prison every day." ”

Liu Xing couldn't help but sigh again, making a final struggle, "So, do you have any other way to help me get some items that can be exchanged for labor?" ”

"Well, it won't work." Mette lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry Mr. Liu Xing, because our ordinary staff can be said to be voluntary labor in the Black Rock Mountain Prison, so I can't help you get those items exchanged for labor points, but I can arrange you in some idle positions, Mr. Liu Xing, and increase your daily salary to 100 points, and occasionally have bonuses." ”

Liu Xing shook his head and said seriously: "It must be good to raise my salary, but I don't plan to change positions recently, because the purpose of my entry into the Black Stone Mountain Prison this time is to obtain what those fanatical believers left behind in the real world." ”

"So that's the case, then I'll help Mr. Liu Xing find a few fanatics to have a good chat with you in the past two days, I believe they are very willing to exchange those things outside the body for work." Mette's eyes lit up.

Looking at the upper Mette, Liu Xing smiled with satisfaction.

After chatting a few words, Liu Xing and the three of them began to dehull the needlepoint wheat.

"By the way, Mette, there won't be any problems with the wine made from this needlepoint wheat, right?" Liu Xing asked suddenly.

Mette, who was about to put needlepoint wheat into a machine, thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I really don't know what the problem will be with needlepoint wheat, because since humans brought their own winemaking technology into a dreamland, there has never been a negative press about the wine made by needlepoint wheat, and there has been no accident in the Black Rock Mountain Prison because of drinking needlepoint ale." ”

Hearing Mette say this, Liu Xing felt that this needlepoint ale might not be the kind of wine he had drunk in Taoyuan Village.

Ten minutes later, Mette handed Liu Xing a palm-sized cloth bag, "Because the shell of the needle wheat has other functions, I can't give you too many needlepoint wheat shells, please don't mind Mr. Liu Xing." ”

Liu Xing took the cloth bag and said nonchalantly: "These are enough for me, after all, I only use the shell of these needlepoint wheat for self-defense, but then again, does the shell of the needlepoint wheat have any effect on the curse of the living body?" ”

Cod on the side pondered for a moment, and said with some uncertainty: "Maybe it will have an effect, after all, the Living Curse should also be considered a creature, right?" ”
