my cthulhu game

Chapter 111 Are You All Right?

real world.

In another room of the "Fortress of Sanity".Shi Li, Qiu Jie, Xiaoxue and Sayoko all wore their own virtual helmets and immersed themselves in the virtual world.

Of course, they are not running mods...

Since the number of helmets is no longer in short supply, Chen Qiang has provided a helmet to all the regular and temporary employees of the "Fortress of Sanity".In addition to the members of "Sense Fortress", the Qin family was also given several helmets.

After repeated debugging by Gu Shiyin, under the premise that the material is sufficient, the machine tool runs at full capacity 24 hours a day, and the core accessories that "Sense Fortress" can harvest every day are enough to equip thousands of virtual helmets, but most of them are backlogged in the warehouse.

In conclusion, limiting the number of helmets produced is no longer a machine tool produced by the system, but a supporting production line that makes core parts into helmets.After all, Chen Qiang also had to be careful not to let the core accessories leak out.

Thousands of shipments per day are actually not an ideal figure for the ambitious Chen Qiang - now the shipments of Sony's Four Princesses have approached the 200 million mark, and the so-called "best-selling game in history" The cumulative sales of Sony’s previous model, the Second Princess, exceeded [-] million, and the annual output of only [-] million is really not enough.

Regardless of whether the types of games can become more abundant in the future, just those purely service functions and the particularity of one headset per person will make its sales destined to crush all old-age game consoles.

And the real server of all these helmets - "Secret Keeping Game Hall" - originated from Chen Qiang's "Cthulhu's Secret Keeper" system, which can be said to be completely controlled by Chen Qiang alone.

But Chen Qiang was not in a hurry.

Rare things are more expensive, and too many steps will weaken the advanced sense of the product itself.

He doesn't believe that he won't have the opportunity to get more machine tools from the system in the future; maybe Gu Shiyin and future mythological creature investigators will be able to manufacture more new machine tools by themselves without the system?
Employees of the "Fortress of Sanity" can communicate online at any time even though they are thousands of miles away through helmets.Because everyone complained that the strange mist-filled space was too permeable, Chen Qiang simply set the default location when logging in to the deck of the service-type "Fortress of Sanity".

Under the silent setting, most of the cabins of the "Fortress of Sanity" are still closed. There are no waiters, and there is no chef in the restaurant. The food and drinks on the deck are automatically reset and refreshed every day. The same is true.

But this is enough to attract Shi Li, Sister Qiu and others to find a reason to enter the virtual space to enjoy the sea breeze - anyway, eating here will not make you fat, and you can swim as much as you want.

But there are also people who use several virtual spaces with special environments for other purposes... For example, Qin Lingxue and Sayoko are not on the "Fortress of Sanity".

……

A "service" space somewhere.

It looks more like a huge arena here.

[Qin Lingxue succeeded in fighting check 59/60]

[Sayako dodges 10/52 successfully]

Qin Lingxue has bid farewell to training for nearly two years.And everything that happened recently made her determined to regain the training she had lost.

In the center of the ring, two girls were fisting and kicking each other, conducting a "real combat" drill that Qin Lingxue had not seen for a long time.In the virtual space, two people can attack with all their strength without worrying about accidentally hurting others.

[Sayako's fighting check is 22/75 successful]

[Qin Lingxue dodges 8/40 successfully]

Qin Lingxue tilted her head slightly to avoid Xiao Yezi's direct attack, and then took advantage of the situation to pursue her.

[Qin Lingxue failed the fighting check 68/60]

[Sayoko's combat counterattack check is 37/75 successful]

Qin Lingxue was half a head taller than Xiao Yezi, but in terms of skills, Xiao Yezi, who had never stopped training, was more proficient.She easily received Qin Lingxue's punch, but she saw Qin Lingxue's weakness and punched her in the lower abdomen.

【Damage 3】

The pain in the virtual space was weakened, but the heavy blow to Xiaoyezi's abdomen still made Qin Lingxue take several steps back.

[Qin Lingxue succeeded in fighting check 42/60]

[Sayako dodges 85/52 failed]

【Damage 1】

Qin Lingxue tried to fight back, her fist brushed against Xiao Yezi's ear.

"That's not okay, Miss Xue." Feeling the burning pain in the root of her ear, Xiao Yezi shook her head.

[Sayako's fighting check is 67/75 successful]

[Qin Lingxue failed to dodge 89/86]

【Damage 2】

Xiao Yezi kicked Qin Lingxue's calf suddenly, and her body shook involuntarily.Qin Lingxue gritted her teeth and threw another right uppercut.

[Qin Lingxue failed the fighting check 75/60]

[Sayako's combat counterattack check is 2/75 big success]

Facing Qin Lingxue who had lost her balance, Xiao Yezi easily dodged it, and then seized Qin Lingxue's upper arm and made a clean over-the-shoulder throw.

【Damage 3】

"Sister Xue, are you... all right? Do you want to continue?" Looking at Qin Lingxue who was already lying on the ground, Xiao Yezi couldn't help asking.

"Continue." Qin Lingxue gritted her teeth and stood up, attacking Xiao Yezi again.

[Qin Lingxue's fighting test failed 99/67]

But she, who had already ate several full-strength attacks firmly, was already unable to stand still...

[Sayoko's combat counterattack check is 23/75 successful]

【Damage 3】

Another clean throw, Qin Lingxue was knocked to the ground again.This time, her physical strength had reached her limit, and she was directly kicked out of the virtual space.

……

Sayoko, who cut off the connection by herself, took off the helmet, but Qin Lingxue gestured for her to put it on again.

"We...continue to the next round." Qin Lingxue said.

"Sister Xue, you are still doing recovery training. There is really no need..." Xiao Yezi couldn't help raising objections.

"Xiao Yezi," Qin Lingxue said gently, "Chen Qiang and the others have been exploring the secrets in even more dangerous situations. If we want to help them... we have to work hard."

Sayoko was silent for a few seconds.

"I understand," she said, "Sister Xue, I will continue to help you."

……

Arkham in the virtual world.

A modified Cadillac drove into the gate of Miskani Tok University.

The sun sets.The sunset shines on the streets of Arkham. Compared with the Chinese metropolis where cars flow all day long, even during off-duty hours, there are not many cars on the streets of this quiet and lonely American town.There were college students walking by the road in twos and threes.

Qin Yixian speeded up a little.He was following the route pointed out by the navigation, but obviously, the navigation was directing him to take a detour, which made him feel a little annoyed.

The task required them to protect Chen Qiang for 48 hours.We must find him as soon as possible, and at the same time ensure that our team is not alone...

When it was really a last resort, Qin Yixian thought to himself, the only one who is most suitable to act alone is me.

Just when he was thinking about his next plan——

[Ian Qin's detection check is 38/90 successful]

Through the windshield, Qin Yixian vaguely saw a few red light spots that looked like fireflies moving around the edge of the glowing red fire cloud.

[Todd detection check 19/25 success]

"Meteor? No..." Todd in the passenger seat also noticed the existence of the light spot, "That's..."

[Qin Yixian's Cthulhu Mythos check was successful 7/20]
