Ten o'clock in the evening.

The moon is dark and the wind is high in the western suburbs of D City.

In the end, D City is a metropolis with a population of one million, and these days Chen Qiang is busy and uses the "mythical map" function of his mobile phone to scan the existence of myths, and the west of the city, especially the western suburbs, has not had time to investigate.

And the "mission trigger point" indicated by the mod is in the western suburbs that he has not investigated......

"The map shows the abandoned Xicheng Theater," Chen said, "and the mention of theater reminds people of Hasta and The King in Yellow, but since the difficulty is The Out Gods...... It seems that the mastermind behind this time has nothing to do with Hasta. ”

The Outer Gods are divine beings that override the Old Rulers, and unlike the Old Rulers such as Cthulhu and Hasta, who often present the horror of alien monsters, the Outer Gods are closer to the embodiment of pure natural laws.

Difficulty: The Out Gods, which is also the highest difficulty that the system can identify.

But considering the difficulty of identifying the "Cthulhu's Keeper" system, Chen Qiang is not afraid.

Whenever there is a chance that "Old Dominator" will appear in the mod, the difficulty will be displayed as "Old Dominator".

The difficulty of "The King in Yellow in the Board Game Club" and "The Curse of the Hanged King" are both "Old Dominators", and the difficulty of the mod "Summer Night Monsters", where only Uncle Xu, a ghoul, appears, is "Lower Race".

In the same way, in mods with difficulty shown as "Outer God", the unrivaled Outer God may not necessarily appear, and it is likely that they are only being summoned.

Whether it is the "King in Yellow in the Board Game Club" that happened in the real world, or the "Curse of the Hanged King" in the trial space, he finally prevented the arrival of the old ruler.

Whether it's the Old Dominator or the Outer God, as long as you can't get out, there's nothing to be afraid of. Ultraman's mission is to fight monsters, and the investigator's mission is to get the monsters out before they come out.

The university town of City D is located in the eastern suburbs, and although the western suburbs are not as developed as the eastern suburbs, they are not inaccessible, and there is even a police station and a police academy nearby, where Chen Qiang's elder brother Chen Jian graduated. It's hard to imagine any mythical creature that could summon an outer god without attracting attention.

Fanatics or mythical creatures who only dare to sneak in their actions......

As long as they determine their bottom line, there is a high probability that they can be run over with money ability.

"Uncle Xu, ride faster," Chen Qiang decided to focus on the moment, "It's almost half past ten." ”

"Xiao Chen, ah......" Uncle Xu in the front seat looked like he wanted to remind but didn't dare to speak.

"Say whatever you want." Chen Qiang, who was sitting in the back of the car, said.

"You said that the other side may be a non-human race, be careful, let's be like that...... Is it okay to pedal three wheels in the bright light? ”

Pedaling Chen Qiang's broken tricycle from nowhere, carrying Chen Qiang in a tactical vest and a huge package (and even a liquid nitrogen tank), the honest ghoul Uncle Xu finally couldn't help but complain.

Uncle Xu felt that he in the form of a ghoul could run faster than this thing with Chen Qiang on his back......

"I have my considerations." Chen Qiang said mildly.

That's right.

Chen Qiang informed the two to meet in the western suburbs in the evening, but before that, he did not wait for time to pass.

Before the sun set, Chen Qiang carefully surveyed the surrounding terrain from a safe distance without triggering the module, and planned more than three escape routes.

Under the strategy of money at any cost, along the road that Uncle Xu rides, there is a car with a full tank of fuel parked every five hundred meters, and with the key hidden by his own hand, Chen Qiang can quickly start any of them.

"It's almost there." Looking at the dark shadow of the building in the distance, Chen Qiang's heart tightened.

There are only 550 meters left until the destination.

Chen Qiang also saw an inconspicuous black pickup truck parked not far away.

Knowing that this world is the world of the Cthulhu Mythos, he customizes this real car for himself, and it was finally in place yesterday.

It seems to be an ordinary pickup truck, and the modification has been deeply involved in every detail, not only with strong horsepower, but also with glass and reinforced body that can be strong for a while in the face of bullets and bullets.

If it weren't for the fact that the law didn't allow it, Chen Qiang wanted to buy himself a car of the same model as the president of the Northern Hairy Bear Country, and I heard that it was comparable to a tank that could withstand RPG attacks......

Once the situation changes, Chen Qiang can give up the three wheels at any time, choose this reinforced pickup truck to escape quickly, and even change cars halfway.

It cannot be ruled out that the enemy is a technological race and can invade the surrounding probes, Chen Qiang gave up approaching by car, but chose a low-key tricycle that could walk outside the shooting range of the western suburbs.

And his "Swiss Army Knife"-level investigator equipment is also installed in the back seat of the car, and there is a complete set of backups in the modified pickup.

Swiss Army Knife, Double-Sided Tape, Instant Tape, Hemp Rope, Bungee Cord, Windproof Lighter, Flashlight, Walkie-Talkie, Camera, Small Tape Recorder, Alcohol, Miniature Wire Saw, Gas Mask, Some Chemical Reagents, Tactical Dagger, Golf Club, Crowbar......

Coupled with the heavy liquid nitrogen tank, it is thanks to the infinite strength of his ghoul friend Uncle Xu that he can carry many things.

At the same time, the people from the security company who did not know the truth were already in place thousands of kilometers away, and whether to let them support or escape was in Chen Qiang's thoughts.

"Be prepared, it's always right."

The destination where the mod is triggered in the mobile map is the half-abandoned old theater in the western suburbs.

Ten years ago, some businessmen built a large number of projects in the western suburbs in order to promote the development of the western suburbs as soon as possible, but in the end, the pros and cons were weighed and the development focused on the eastern suburbs university town. The theater basically could not receive performances, and was eventually converted into a logistics warehouse, and after the completion of the new logistics center of Fengshun Express, this place was reduced to a situation where no one rented the warehouse.

Finally, due to its proximity to the power plant, this place was given to a few speculators who speculated in virtual currencies to place their "mining machines" and produce virtual currencies.

Chen Qiang consulted the people in the power supply department, and the current daily power consumption of the old theater is indeed very large, and there is no arrears in electricity bills, so it should be really "mining".

"The biggest possibility is," Chen Qiang already had a prediction in his heart, "There is a believer of an outer god hidden in those 'mining' people, it is very likely that he is a mythical creature, under the banner of a mining machine, and is thinking about something." ”

A common routine of Cthulhu mods is that investigators find something strange, suspect that it is related to a mythical creature, and then investigate further and find that it is really related to a mythical creature.

But I can't think of any outer god that can be summoned directly by electricity......

It's always right to be prepared, to be more prepared.
