Chapter 18: Preliminary Competition—Control, Containment, and Protection
The Cthulhu Mythos, is the American novelist Howard? Philip? Mr. Lovecraft's science fiction series, after the death of the old gentleman whose name was so long that it was no longer repeated, was passed on, and a large group of fanfiction writers and followers joined the creative ranks, writing a mixed range of works and expanding the worldview of this thing. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Among them, there are two well-known characters, namely Kazi and Naiazi - cough, Cthulhu and Naiarathotep...... Of course, most of the works in this series are still very different from the style of "Let's Sneak, Naiako".
Briefly introduce this worldview.
In this world, only a small part of what human beings can probe is, and if they see things beyond the scope of human understanding, human beings will gradually go crazy, even alienated, and this process is irreversible - in related peripheral works, this process is called "falling San".
The Old Dominators, the Old Gods, and other awesome beings, belong to this category of unknowable, incomprehensible things, possess unparalleled power - though they may be swept away by fishing boats - and most of them have no interest in humans.
This is thankful, if not for the fact that there are a lot of these things on Earth, even better.
As a secondary school dead house, Lin Qing has a great interest in this very compelling setting, so he has also read some of the works of this series and has a certain understanding of the setting of this series. He was even familiar with the table games in the series, but he never played them because he couldn't find anyone to play with......
And although it is a rookie, the Cthulhu classmate whose entire system is named after it, and the well-known lines related to it, Lin Qing is naturally very familiar with it. ph'ngluimglw'nafhCthulhuR'lyehwgah'naglfhtagn, this strange and difficult to pronounce Roman phonetics, is a frequent phrase in Cthulhu's appearances.
Translated into Chinese, it means: "In Lyle's apartment, the dead Cthulhu waits for a dream." ”
Well, just like most horror and science fiction works, an inexplicable sentence translates a line that seems to be very hanging, but is actually incomprehensible, so that people can feel that the forced character has risen by several percentage points in an instant.
The story of Cthulhu and his ilk, which are pretty much the same to humans, will come back in a moment, but now we know that this thing is something in a work of fiction.
However, considering that this thing had some kind of unexpected fit with the "Doomsday Expansion", Lin Qing finally decided to go over and investigate—to be precise, let the Golden Libra go over and investigate.
And Golden Libra has always trusted most of Lin Qing's decisions, even to the point of obeying her words, so she didn't even ask a question, she tied up Matt's classmate and threw it aside - because there was actually no crime in killing Matt, and Golden Libra had no way to judge him - took his mobile phone and started to hurry.
Uh--on how did she know where to go...... With Lin Qing's help, she spent three minutes cracking the password of Fang Mobai's mobile phone, then logged in to Lin Qing's QQ number, and sent a sentence of "B-level help" in the group called "Miracle", and then attached the other party's mobile phone number, and a guy called Dead House No. 2 sent a string of coordinates over......
So, in front of the auspicious digital door of Room 13 on the 13th floor of an apartment, the golden Libra raised his hand and knocked on the door.
(…… It feels so stupid to knock layer by layer...... I always feel that this idiotic behavior is familiar, is it a delusion...... )
Ignoring Lin Qing's repetition of the complaints he had said a few times before, the golden libra knocked on the door panel rhythmically, while counting silently. When you knock on it twenty times, you think there is no one inside, and the previous twelve floors were handled like this.
Eighteen, nineteen-twenty, when I struck the last time, I deliberately slowed down my movements. The thought of having the same number of layers to knock on behind me makes me feel a little irritated even if I am a very serious Golden Libra no matter what I do.
However, there was still no response, and the golden Libra sighed softly and turned around and walked to the upper floor.
Therefore, she did not see or hear, after her, three men in casual clothes, but could not hide their shrewd and capable temperament, came to the door of this house with tacit understanding, directly broke the door lock, and broke into the room.
(Why is there no one in the slot, supposedly they are all scared like that, shouldn't they hurry out and open the door?) )
"Maybe, that guy, mistaken?" The golden libra stood on the top of the twenty-sixth floor, slightly panting.
(That's No. 2, unlike No. 1, No. 2 is a good boy who never lies.) )
Golden Libra pursed her mouth, she didn't mean that, but Lin Qing didn't seem to suspect that the dead house No. 2 might be wrong at all, somehow, Golden Libra was a little upset because of this, so she didn't speak.
But now she and Lin Qing are in a spiritual link, and she doesn't know how Lin Qing hides her emotions, so now her thoughts are clear to Lin Qing.
(Alas?) Little Gold, are you jealous? Oh my God, little gold, you're so cute! All right. Judging from that guy's familiarity with killing Matt, that is also likely to be a member of the Dragon Group, even if it is No. 2, if he wants to get information about the personnel of the national secret service, I am afraid it is not so easy. It seems that we have been tricked, let's go, and get on with what we were. )
Hearing Lin Qing's praise, although the golden Libra still pouted, the unhappiness in his heart disappeared - at the moment when all this happened, there seemed to be a worried emotion on Lin Qing's side, but it disappeared immediately, and the golden Libra felt that it was an illusion.
Because Golden Libra was busy with so-called relationship problems, when she passed the thirteenth floor, she didn't notice anything unusual in Room 13, whether it was the disappearing door lock or the slight sound of talking coming from inside.
(If you think about it, Cthulhu or something may still be too exaggerated, does that GM really have the ability to create things out of thin air?) The so-called "doomsday expansion film" may still be more realistic things such as an asteroid hitting the earth and a global nuclear war...... That call was probably nonsense for the emergency rescue to kill Matt, it was I thinking too much. )
…………
An hour later, Golden Libra stood in front of the woman, who was probably named Luo Yingying.
"Too close to the player, ostracized?" The golden balance said lightly, and the golden hair shone in the sunlight.
The woman who may be called Luo Yingying stroked her hair: "I don't want to go down by myself." There's not even the sun down there. You're the one in the qualifiers, right? Looks like - came to me specifically? ”
(Well, there's player protection.) It seems that she didn't fall out with her companion. Very good. )
Golden Libra nodded slightly: "I'm here to ask for help." ”
“…… Help? Luo Yingying frowned a little puzzled, and repeated, "Help?" ”
Golden Libra nodded again: "Yes." At the beginning of the preliminary round, as an off-field, you can help, a lot of help. ”
"Oh." Luo Yingying raised her head as if she suddenly realized, and then showed a sneer, "The preliminaries have already begun, but I don't know at all." Why the hell am I doing you a favor? Because of you, my companion and I missed the next competition. Later, of course, I showed a very weak appearance, but at that time, in order to protect myself - do you really think I am a bully? ”
Golden Libra was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
(Oh, little gold, you're really- I've said it a long time ago, and it's useless to be too polite to talk to most people.) )
Golden Libra opened his mouth and said according to Lin Qing's request: "You should, thank me, don't kill the grace." ”
Luo Yingying was a little stunned by the sudden arrogant speech of the Golden Libra, but then sneered even more: "Hey, I thought you were a more honest kind of person." Sure enough, like gathers like. That companion of yours was threatening me with my family at the time. ”
According to Lin Qing's request, Golden Libra tried very hard to hook the corners of his mouth without smiling, but this didn't look like a sneer, but was closer to selling cuteness: "What do you think, my companion, what are you doing?" ”
Although it is a cute one, in Luo Yingying's eyes, saying such terrible things with a cute expression, this Lori is really too dark to be black. Luo Yingying frowned: "...... My family is now in a shelter. ”
"Why, my companion, will you know, who you are?" Libra didn't quite keep up with the threats, but she said them honestly.
It turns out that even if you don't know the principle, you can get similar results with the skills you use.
Golden Libra used [Mouth Cannon-Threat], the effect was outstanding, and Luo Yingying (suspected) was provoked.
(This idiot woman...... It's actually quite sympathetic...... Truth be told, while her relationship with the player is pretty good, it's mostly a friendly relationship between the kidnappers and the Stockholm Syndrome. At first, she compromised for something, but she gradually fell in love with the person who abused her, only to find that the other party had always just treated herself as a doll - such a dramatic plot, I think she is also a person with the potential to be the protagonist. )
Just when Lin Qing was sighing nonsense and sighing about something that he didn't know, the golden balance was tense on his side.
Although she was only facing an NPC, Golden Libra's intuition gave her an early warning of extreme danger.
"Just helping, it's good for you." While opening his mouth to speak, the golden Libra bent down slightly, held the umbrella with his left hand, and assumed a posture of drawing a knife.
(This woman's title skill seems to be called "Doll's Curse", and the effect is damage transfer, which was used last time I rescued Xiaocang.) All you need to do is keep an eye on her movements, don't let her hurt herself - well, and then take a little attention and see if there's anyone around to support her. )
After receiving Lin Qing's analysis, Golden Libra was much more relieved, and no longer focused on the NPC in front of her as before, and soon, she was able to sense the ability of the nearby evil, and found that there was a player who seemed to be in ambush not far away.
(Is it an ambush - wait a minute, what was the reflection from the upstairs over there?) Little gold? Little gold?! )
Luo Yingying had already seen her companion's code before, and was about to use her title skill to cut a hole in the Golden Libra's body, and then when her attention was diverted, she asked her companion to rush up and solve it, when she suddenly saw the Golden Libra fall to the ground all of a sudden.
"Huh? What-how-ah......" Luo Yingying, who was stunned for a moment, saw that at the corner of the street behind her, her companion's body was directly exposed, lying on the ground, and before she could finish her shocking words, she herself lost consciousness.
"The target has been subdued. Two specimens of SCP-3013-1 are currently in containment. In order to ensure safety, the relevant ordinary people also plan to be arrested and dealt with, and it is hoped that it will be approved. Agent Tom Sue. ”
