my cthulhu game

Chapter 128 The Emerald Chaser

[Module name: Emerald Chaser]

[Recommended number of people: 1-3]

[Difficulty: Old One Ruler]

……

The "Cthulhu's Keeper" system, in the real world, will list mythological elements around Chen Qiang that are not under his control as triggerable modules. In the virtual space, apart from the unpredictable "random trials", there will be a large number List the mods related to the mythological elements that Chen Qiang has come into contact with in the real world and random trials.

"It seems that there are not many modules, but there are actually a lot of them."

Before he knew it, Chen Qiang had come into contact with mythological elements that seemed to be "a dazzling array".

Outer gods: Yog Sothoth, "All things are one"; Msisha, "Overlord of Tindalos"; or Chamber of Secrets module); "Music Angel" Trunimbula.

The Old Ones: Hastur, the "Unspeakable One"; Lord of R'lyeh, the Great Cthulhu.

Mythological races: ghouls, ancients, deep divers, Migos (appeared after the end of "Arkham Soul", it seems that Mr. Miguel is really Migos), Skoho family.

Coupled with some modules that simply express "human terror", now there are eighty modules that Chen Qiang can choose from in the system list.

……

【Selected Mode: Original Purpose】

[In this mod, the "credit level" will be recalculated according to your implanted identity]

[If you have any questions, you can consult the "Keeper of the Secret" without attracting the attention of the NPC]

[Any act of "revealing the existence of the game" in front of NPC will be punished]

In the fog where she couldn't see her fingers, Cecilu waited impatiently for the module to start. The powerless encounter in "Arkham Soul" made her suffocate and wanted to vent her anger. It would be best to fight the enemy head-on.

The system's cold beeps continued.

[Fear——True fear will disintegrate people's will, leaving a nightmare-like brand in their hearts, and there will never be a day of recovery. 】

[Just like being terminally ill, even if a curtain is drawn in the heart to cover up these unbearable memories, the fear will still erode the person's mind again. 】

Cecilu snorted—she wouldn't be afraid!

What about PTSD is purely Chen Qiang's nonsense, she is just worried that Chen Qiang's "unstable factors" are jumping around where she can't see it!Self-deception?Weak!
[Perhaps you sneer at the saying "ignorance is bliss" and think it is a clumsy trick used by some people to protect their knowledge and power from the prying eyes of others; but by now, you may have realized that this statement is not true. Virtual. 】

...This damn voice-over can read minds.

[In a special sense, those ignorant and superstitious beings are also enviable.Ignorance is also fearlessness, and the vain dangers that exist only in the imagination do not harm those who are stupid. 】

[Real horrors are far beyond imagination - people depict imaginary monsters with unparalleled fear, but the real horrors are far beyond them.It should be noted that the truth behind the facts is the unbearable weight. 】

[Human language is so poor that it cannot describe what one sees when one gazes into the abyss of primordial fear.Language is subordinate to thinking, and thinking has long been silent in the face of real terror.Human power is so powerless in the face of things far beyond comprehension, and this powerlessness is the edge of truth. 】

"Tch, it's the same thing." Cecilu muttered.

Don't panic, it's just a scare!Ceci thought quietly.

Cecilu, who was kept in the dark, didn't know—these lines were actually not spoken by the system, but Chen Qiang read them with "secret keeper authority".

If the system didn't allow it, Chen Qiang would also like to add some background music... Why doesn't the system provide a function to automatically add BGM?

But it’s okay, as the saying goes, “Silence is better than sound at this time.” The system “translated” Chen Qiang’s tone into an indifferent and cold tone. Before the story officially unfolded, the emotionless and indifferent chanting was more Cthulhu-like.

Chen Qiang didn't intend to intimidate Cecilu, but felt that the "Green Delta" agent should have a stronger psychological tolerance for these lines.

As for Xiaoxue... Xiaoxue hesitated for a while when choosing between "original intention" and "popular" before choosing "original intention", so she only heard the last sentence of that line.Xiaoxue's sanity was increased by 10 points from Chen Qiang's sanity pool.By the way, Xiaoxue's sanity has begun to recover naturally recently, and the current SAN is 30.

She is likely to invest in the investigation of the real Arkham in the future, and it is better to slowly increase her sanity line.

【Games start. 】

……

[Chen Qiang's credit rating has been reset to 90%. 】

【Qin Lingxue's credit rating has been reset to 10%. 】

【Cecilu's credit rating has been reset to 10%. 】

[You can check your character card by calling the Keeper]

Chen Qiang, Qin Lingxue, and Ceci showed a blur in front of their eyes.

[This is a small country located between Huaguo and India, on the south side of the roof of the world]

[14 square kilometers of land, nearly 3000% of the mountain area, about 500 million people, most of them live in lowlands and valleys.The capital of only fifty square kilometers is crowded with more than five million residents]

[However, even in such an underdeveloped country, there are still people fighting for it.With international aid, this backward mountainous country has tenaciously established many institutions of higher learning. 】

The three found themselves standing in front of a small white villa.The villa is fairly well-built, and there are several identical villas next to it, each with a garage; but the potholed road, as well as the low and dilapidated teaching buildings and local student dormitories in the distance, accurately reflect the local economy. situation.

[Chen Qiang, your identity is the son of a wealthy businessman in Huaguo. 】

Chen Qiang nodded slightly.

[You are a young but experienced businessman and history buff.You come to this foothill country for vacation with your bodyguards.The local Tribhuwan University pays you to give lectures and is willing to provide you with housing.You gladly accepted their invitation. 】

[Now, your work is done and the holidays are in their last few days]

In fact, almost all of these character backgrounds were quickly filled in by Chen Qiang himself after taking advantage of his secret keeper privileges to convert the game into "popular mode". He just asked the system before entering if it could read these out at the beginning of the story...

【Qin Lingxue, Cecilu, you two are Chen Qiang's female bodyguards.The law and order in this area is somewhat chaotic, and your task is to protect Chen Qiang's safety at all costs. 】

　This time it is still a module adapted from the running group records, but the characters, including the setting of the story, have changed significantly. PS: It seems that some of the posts that disappeared in the book review area have been released.
