my cthulhu game

Chapter 144 This system finally went crazy

Chen Qiang paced the corridor.

He has just received a communication from Qin Yixian. In the middle of this month, professional agents from major organizations around the world will hold a meeting in Japan around Operation Arkham, and then launch a large-scale "exploration" operation on Arkham. Switch to "Clean" if necessary.

But before that...

He looked at the system tasks displayed on the "Cthulhu's Secret Keeper" app on his phone.

[Task name: One after another

Task Description: In the next month, complete at least two "Virtual Space Random Trial Modules".Random trial modules that have not been completed for the first time cannot directly complete system tasks.

Reward: Variable (Unknown)

Current progress: 1/2]

I received the mission in May, that is to say, I have to execute the "Virtual Space Random Trial Module" again recently.

In contrast, whether it is the business expansion of "Fortress of Reason" or attending a meeting in Japan, it will be very difficult to get busy...

Let's start the trial while everyone is here these few days.

I hope this trial will not be as difficult as last time...

Chen Qiang took a deep breath and clicked on the screen.

Random trial module, start.

[Module name: Future divergence point]

[Suggested members: 5]

[The investigators of this module are fixed as: Chen Qiang, Qin Lingxue, Haneda Sayoko, Cecilu, and Gu Shiyin.Other investigators cannot enter the mod. 】

[Difficulty: Dimension Engine (D-Engine)]

Chen Qiang:? ? ?
"This system has finally gone crazy." Chen Qiang said to himself.

Chen Qiang glanced out the window.

Tomorrow is June [-]th.

Well, on the day of the college entrance examination, it is estimated that the streets will be quiet at that time, there are not many drivers honking their horns, and all business has been pushed away by myself. It is a rare clean day.

……

In front of the Outer Gods and the Old Ones, the life course of a mortal is like an instant, and the history of civilization from rise to fall is just a slightly longer period of time.

……

2999 AD.

The Alliance of Human Nations on Earth, or the Human Confederation.

A city in the east of the Eurasian continent - City D.

As one of the largest large-scale tourist cities on Earth, City D has long established a protection area in the old city, maintaining the urban style of thousands of years ago.With the former university town as the center, City D plans to build a brand new city center, which is one of the most prosperous areas on the entire planet.

Two tourist groups arrived at D's downtown square - "Chen Qiang Square" at the same time.

One of them is mostly young and middle-aged men and women, wearing dark green tight uniforms, everyone's temperament is shrewd and capable; while the other team is more "classic", with old shirts and jeans, looking around curiously .

"Guests from Morocco...and here, guests from Ceres Colony..."

On the square, a red-clothed female tour guide with virtual image projection appeared out of thin air, and led the two groups of tour groups in different clothes through the square.

"Welcome to Chen Qiang Square," the tour guide's sweet voice echoed in the ears of the two groups of tourists, "The square is named after the great man of mankind——Chen Qiang, and it is the symbol of City D..."

Of course people already knew about this.

"Originally, City D was going to be renamed Chen Qiang City, but it is said that Mr. Chen Qiang himself overcame public opinion and kept the previous name..."

"Everyone, please look at the bronze statue in the center of the square, which is a one-to-one restoration of Mr. Chen Qiang... At that time, this square was the seat of D University, and Mr. Chen Qiang, who was still studying at the university, was here, walking and thinking about the future. ..."

"Excuse me, is this the true portrayal of Mr. Chen Qiang walking?" A red-haired girl in uniform asked, blinking.

Chen Qiang, depicted in the statue, opened his arms and clenched his fists tightly, making an impassioned speech, as if he was the only one in the world.

A burst of laughter broke out among the young crowd, while another wave glared at these students who had no respect for their predecessors.

"No, this statue depicts Mr. Chen Qiang when he first revealed his virtual reality technology to the whole society on June 900st, 'Boundary Point Day' more than [-] years ago." The artificial intelligence-controlled female guide seemed to be unaware The girl asked the question knowingly, and answered in an unchanging tone.

"My database shows that the answer just now involves the knowledge point 'Chen Qiang's Boundary Point Day Speech', which is a compulsory content in the 'Second Morocco High School Preparatory Course' you are studying," the female guide said gently, "Please study hard .”

The girl instantly turned into a bitter face.The other group of tourists burst into vengeful laughter.

That's right... A group of young people who look more like "cosmic residents" are mostly students born on the earth; while the other group of men, women and children who are more similar to the state of thousands of years ago came from extraterrestrial planets. star tourists.

In this era when most of the solar system was colonized and developed, the residents of many colonized planets maintained a simple lifestyle. On the contrary, the earth as the "capital circle" is more inclined to a simple and capable space development style.

In today's world, almost every inch of land has been fully developed and utilized.

The North African Educational Special Zone, also known as the Morocco-Sahara Educational Zone, is the only "educational zone" set up in Africa. Its students enjoy the privilege of traveling among the planets, and even the students in the preparatory class can use the time before the exam. Travel collectively to the other side of the world to relax.

"Everyone can move freely, and then we will go to the original headquarters of 'Fortress of Sanity' to continue our tour."

……

It has been restored many times and has become the second floor of the "Fortress of Sanity" office building of the historical memorial.

No matter how many times the house is rebuilt, the interior structure and arrangement remain the same.Among them, the company's initial game testing room is not open to visitors at any time, so that students with secondary illness guess whether there is any secret that can shake the world hidden here, such as the super armor key hidden here by Chen Qiang, Or a mysterious super switch that changes the pattern of the universe with one click...

……

In the dusty game testing room——

Chen Qiang and others, who had just started the game, lost their consciousness, and then reconnected instantly.

[Module name: Future Boundary Point]

"……what."

The room in front of me has not changed, it is still the familiar game testing room, but the helmet on the head has disappeared.

fault?Chen Qiang patted his face.He looked around, only Qin Lingxue was around, Xiao Yezi, Cecilu and Gu Shiyin who entered the game with them were nowhere to be seen.

【All players will appear in the area centered on you and within 2000 meters. 】

Game on?Is the stage your own company?
[Current date: June 2999, 6 AD]

"..."

[Your investigator's physical condition may undergo unknown changes, please be careful. 】

[In addition to sanity value, your investigators will have a new indicator of mental state called "clarity value", please pay attention. 】

【Games start. Players who are more than 30 meters away from you within 2000 minutes will lose the game. 】

[Cheers, the future you have been looking forward to has finally come true. 】

Chen Qiang habitually reached out to open the door, but stopped halfway after thinking about it.He looked at Qin Lingxue who was on the side, and Qin Lingxue was also full of worry.

"Let's do a search first."

　Today is the first update. PS: Some terms in this volume refer to the "CthulhuTech" rule (this is actually a Cthulhupunk rule based on D10 instead of D100), but the specific settings are different.
