Liu Xing can now be sure that the masked man who was sitting opposite him just now was definitely Wu Lei.

However, Liu Xing still can't understand why Wu Lei changed to "join" the Cthulhu Run game hall, you must know that Liu Xingke has never heard of the Cthulhu Run game hall openly recruiting new employees.

Of course, Liu Xing also heard that many players think that KP is also human, because many KPs are still quite human, and sometimes they will play some popular new stalks on the Internet.

But judging from the current situation, Liu Xing feels that Wu Lei's level in the Cthulhu Run game hall may be a little higher than KP, after all, Wu Lei replaced the position of KP Time in the end, which shows that Wu Lei has a certain authority in the Cthulhu Run Group Game Hall, so KP Time will honestly give Wu Lei a position.

So, why did Wu Lei become what he is now?

More importantly, why did Wu Lei find himself in the game at this time?

Looking back now, Liu Xing feels that Wu Lei should have suddenly disappeared because of the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, and Wu Lei should have guessed that he had joined the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, so Wu Lei came to find him today, and deliberately exposed his flaws.

However, what made Liu Xing a little puzzled was that when he guessed Wu Lei's identity, Wu Lei sent himself back to the real world without saying a word, which made Liu Xing a little confused, could it be that Wu Lei just wanted to see him, suggesting that he would be a backer in the Cthulhu Running Group game hall?

This should be unlikely, if Wu Lei can really be his backer in the Cthulhu Run game hall, then the character card of "Liu Xing" would have been returned to his hands a long time ago.

Wait a minute.

Liu Xing suddenly remembered one thing - a special reward.

If it weren't for Wu Lei suddenly running out to take the place of KP Time, Liu Xing would be sure that he would not have been able to get this so-called special reward.

So, this special reward is certainly not ordinary.

Sure enough, Liu Xing saw an item that looked like a big gift package in the inventory interface, but to Liu Xing's surprise, the name of this item turned out to be a series of question marks, and the condition for opening this item was that he needed to advance to the Cthulhu region by himself.

In addition to this, there is a sentence in the introduction to this prop - you should know that the key is there.

Key?

Liu Xing immediately realized that the key here should refer to the key to the board game store opened by Wu Lei.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing hurriedly took a taxi to the supermarket next to Wu Lei's board game store, because the key to the board game store was in the hands of the owner of this supermarket.

I don't know if Wu Lei was born with the key, in short, according to Wu Lei, he has lost more than 100 keys since he was a child, so his parents have long deprived him of the right to go out with his own key, and his roommates after Wu Lei lost three bedroom keys in a week, they also decisively announced that Wu Lei will not be allowed to touch the key of the bedroom from now on, but in order to ensure that Wu Lei will not be locked out of the dormitory door by a person, Wu Lei's roommate specially found the classmates in the dormitory next door, Let them keep Wu Lei's bedroom key on their behalf.

And when Liu Xing and Wu Lei were eating hot pot that time, Wu Lei mentioned that the supermarket owner next door was his father's friend, so Wu Lei chose to open a board game store here, and he also put the spare key of the board game store at the owner of the supermarket next door.

After explaining his relationship with Wu Lei, Liu Xing pretended to claim that Wu Lei asked him to check the situation of the board game store, and to Liu Xing's surprise, the owner of the supermarket directly handed over the key to the board game store to Liu Xing.

Liu Xing thought that he would have to work hard to convince the supermarket owner, after all, Wu Lei has been missing for a long time now, so the supermarket owner, as a friend and neighbor of Wu Lei's father, should also know the fact that Wu Lei has disappeared, so Liu Xing felt that the supermarket owner should ask him about Wu Lei's whereabouts, and even suspected that he had kidnapped Wu Lei.

But since the supermarket owner didn't say anything, Liu Xing took the key and went directly to the board game store.

After opening the board game store, Liu Xing saw a letter fall on the ground.

Liu Xing hurriedly picked up and opened the envelope, and found that the letter was indeed written by Wu Lei to himself.

The content of Wu Lei's letter is very simple, that is, to tell Liu Xing that when he saw this letter, he had lost all his character cards because he had not cleared an extremely difficult mod, but he was not erased by the Cthulhu Run game lobby, because he was an internal beta player of the Cthulhu Run game lobby!

That's right, Wu Lei is a beta player in the Cthulhu Run game lobby!

According to Wu Lei, the Cthulhu Run game lobby should have appeared in the real world ten years ago at the earliest, but the Cthulhu Run game lobby at that time was just an ordinary forum in the strict sense, and anyone could post posts related to the Cthulhu Mythos and the Cthulhu Run game on that forum, including their personal self-made mods.

Wu Lei joined the forum eight years ago, after all, the Cthulhu Mythos at that time was still very niche in China, so small that there were almost no forums dedicated to the communication of Cthulhu Mythos lovers, not to mention the more niche Cthulhu Run group game, so many lovers of the Cthulhu Run group game joined that forum at that time.

Then, five years ago, a pinned post appeared on the forum, which was made by the creator of the forum, Nyarrathotep.

In this post, Nyaratotip claims that he has developed a lobby where he can play Cthulhu Run games, and now requires a group of players to test it internally, but only advanced members and modders on the forum can get the beta status.

Wu Lei is one of them.

Through a built-in web link in the post, Wu Lei came to the registration interface of the Cthulhu Run game hall, and after passing the registration, Wu Lei was asked to fill in his personal address and contact information, because the Cthulhu Run game hall will send him a mobile phone, which has a built-in Cthulhu Run game hall beta client.

Although at the beginning, Wu Lei thought that this was a new type of fraud, after all, Wu Lei had never heard that the game company would send mobile phones to beta players, but Wu Lei thought about it, anyway, he was just a poor and white student, and there was nothing to be deceived, so Wu Lei still honestly filled in his home address and contact information.

A day later, Wu Lei got the mobile phone that changed his life.

When Wu Lei turned on his mobile phone and clicked on the app of the beta version of the Cthulhu Run game lobby, Wu Lei was directly teleported to the Cthulhu Run game lobby, and more than 1,000 other beta players met the legendary Nyarlathotep.

Then, Nyara Totip bluntly announced the closed beta rules of the Cthulhu Run game lobby - all closed beta players have a total of five character cards, and if the closed beta players do not pass five mods before consuming all the character cards, then the closed beta players will be directly wiped out; If the beta players are able to pass five mods, then the beta players will receive a golden character card and 1,000 points in the official version; If a player in the closed beta is able to pass ten mods, Nayarathotep will give them a job offer based on their performance, which will take effect after they lose their status in the official version.

Wu Lei's luck was very good, he passed thirteen modules during the internal test and obtained a letter of appointment as an operator.

According to Wu Lei's understanding, there are only three positions on the letter of appointment issued by Nyara Totip - KP, operator, and module author.

As the name suggests, KP is KP, and the job content is to ensure that each module can run normally, but KP can only play according to the existing settings in the module, and it is generally not allowed to make any changes; Operators are responsible for patrolling their respective areas to ensure that each module can be carried out normally, reporting to superiors if bugs are found, and incarnating as NPCs to enter the module or directly take over the work of KP if necessary; The modders' job is even simpler, they just need to make all kinds of new mods to make sure that players can play different scripts.

To put it simply, a good performance in the closed beta is equivalent to a gold medal for avoiding death, except that they have to join the Cthulhu Run lobby to work.

Three years ago, the internal beta of the Cthulhu Run game hall officially ended, and the official version soon began to "operate", Wu Lei and other internal beta players quickly opened up the gap with ordinary players by virtue of the advantages of internal testing, and it can be said that ninety percent of players in the Cthulhu region are now internal beta players.

And on the day Wu Lei disappeared, he entered the promotion module from the Cthulhu region to the Azathos region.

Then Wu Lei failed.

After reading Wu Lei's letter, Liu Xing was silent for a long time, because the amount of information in this letter was too large, so that Liu Xing couldn't digest it for a while.

Obviously, that Niarathottip is probably the real Nyaratotip, because it is the only one who could become the administrator of the Cthulhu Run game lobby, or even the initiator.

However, it may be that Nyaratotip gave a gag order to the closed beta players, so there is no content about the closed beta in the forum of the Cthulhu Run game lobby.

In addition, Liu Xing was also a little glad that Wu Lei's internal test performance at that time was very good, otherwise Wu Lei would have no way to come to him as a KP, after all, it can be seen from Wu Lei's letter that KP's authority is almost zero, and he can only operate according to the settings of the module.

Of course, Liu Xing can now be sure that his netizen will also be the beta test personnel of the Cthulhu Run game lobby nine times out of ten, and now he has become a modder, and the mod about the island country Tokyo in the parallel world he is in is likely to be created by him.

This is good news for Liu Xing.

But then again, Wu Lei's letter only said the process of participating in the internal test of the Cthulhu Run game hall, so Liu Xing is still a little confused about what Wu Lei wants to do himself.

Save him?

Liu Xing shook his head, knowing that the possibility of being able to rescue Wu Lei was infinitely close to zero, because unless he could contact Nyarlathotep, he would have no way to get Wu Lei out of the Cthulhu Run game hall, and I believe Wu Lei was also very aware of this.

So, what can you do?

Liu Xing became more and more confused.

But at this moment, Liu Xing's mobile phone rang.

Liu Xing took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and found that it was a text message sent by Yin En, and the content of the text message was only four words - go online as soon as possible.

Liu Xing frowned, left the board game store directly with the letter, and then took a taxi home.

Back home, Liu Xing directly landed in the Cthulhu Run game hall.

When he came to the hall, Liu Xing saw Yin En and others waving to him.

"Liu Xing, where have you been these days? Why haven't we been able to contact you for the past two days, and we thought you had something wrong in the real world. Zhang Jingxu asked with a puzzled expression.

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, and then remembered that because the last module happened suddenly, he entered the module directly without contacting Zhang Jingxu and them.

Liu Xing touched the back of his head, laughed a few times awkwardly, and then told him about the previous mod.

Yin En and the others were shocked, because they didn't expect Liu Xing to perform a mod that happened in the past, and what happened in the past was actually related to a series of mods that Liu Xing experienced in the Cthulhu Run game lobby.

As for Wu Lei's matter, Liu Xing finally decided not to say it.

"By the way, Liu Xing, because you've been working on that mod these days, you've missed the discussion about the battle of Gongwu in that QQ group." Yin Eun, who came back to his senses, said: "But it's not a big deal, because everyone is hiding there and refuses to make public what they know, so the discussion can only be ignored in the end." ”

Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "This is also what we expected, after all, the next battle of Gongwu will either die or I will die, and I will not tell the important information I know, so we will have to rely on our own abilities at that time." ”

"But then again, Liu Xing, what kind of character card are you going to use for modding?" Zhang Jingxu asked.

Liu Xing had thought about this question for a long time, so he replied without hesitation: "I plan to use the character card of 'Liu Xing' for the mod first, because the next island country will definitely undergo big changes, so the difficulty of the module related to the island country will definitely increase, and I also need to re-familiarize myself with the character card of 'Liu Xing', and by the way, I will also get in touch with your character card, so that I can use 'Liu Xing' to participate in the battle of public arms." ”

Zhang Jingxu and the others all nodded, indicating that they agreed with Liu Xing's idea.

PS: I recommend a new book on the theme of Cthulhu - "Old Sea Tides".
