my cthulhu game

Chapter 199 Walking for an hour, around the world for a whole week
The old purple-robed priest who maintained the human form led Chen Qiang and his party of four "humans" (there was an ancient one and a young old dominator) walking in the long underground alleyway.

Dark underground passages without any lighting.The monocle Helena gave Chen Qiang was equipped with a night vision function, while Cecilu silently put on the night vision device.

"Did you dig this place?" Chen Qiang asked, noticing that the inner wall of the "mine tunnel" was extremely flat, as if it had been cut flat by a blade.

"In the past, the owners of these passages were not us," the old priest touched his chin, "but Shude Meier's family."

[Cecci Luxulu Myth Check failed 88/10]

"Who is Shude Meier?" Cecilia asked in confusion.

[Ancient Poetry Yin Cthulhu Mythos Test 96/35 Big Failure]

"I know him," said the game-loving Gu Shiyin, who accidentally crossed the line, "Sid Meier is the producer of the "Civilization" series of strategy games. Well, you know, the one from 'One More Round'... "

"That's a human. We're obviously not talking about humans," Chen Qiang said with a facepalm. He always automatically succeeded in this kind of test related to the list of common evil gods. "The earth-shattering Shude Meier, the lord of earthquakes, is the earth-burrowing demon insect. The leader of the clan."

[Ceci Luxulu Myth Check 3/10 success]

"Earth driller..." Cecilu showed a disgusted expression.

The burrower was one of the most hideous monsters she had ever seen.Rocks are like cream to this ground-dwelling reptilian viscous body covered in groping tentacles.Fortunately, the earth burrower has the fatal weakness of "fear of water".

Even the air in the tunnel seemed to cool down again, deep into the bone marrow.

"More than 100 years ago, the earth-burrowing monsters controlled some powerful Dongying people here, coerced and lured them to mine here, and gave them food and sacrifices at regular intervals," said the ghoul elder leisurely, " Later, the matter was revealed, and even the mine owner himself became a delicacy for the earth-drilling insects."

"It sounds like a tragic story." Chen Qiang said.

It is said that the master of the burrower family, the old ruler Shude Meier, was imprisoned in the African city of G Haan together with the most powerful compatriots of his family, but some settings pointed out that the great Xiude Meier Er has long been out of the cage, roaming the earth with its kind, and even established a brand new settlement near the core of the earth.

"For the earth-drilling monsters, only the larvae and homeless exiles who are accidentally swept out of the ground by the magma eruption will use these passages close to the surface," said the ghoul elder, "when the passage is dug Those earth-drilling insects returned to the depths of the mantle, and this place was requisitioned by our skeleton-eaters."

The crowd moved on.At some point, the environment of the road began to change slightly, the stone walls on both sides became potholed, and the ground became rough.

"That Xiude Meier has no objection to this?" Cecilu is still accustomed to using the human thinking mode to speculate on the intentions of the old rulers.This passage is the property of the Earth Burrowing Demon Clan, right?

"The rocks and the earth are to the burrower as air is to humans. If you were the leader of the country, would you jump up in a hurry just because Mi Go took some air samples from the edge of your country?" The elder ghoul asked back.

"..." It was so reasonable that he couldn't refute it.

"But they will occasionally come up to get some air on a whim," the elder ghoul said calmly, "well, this is not what we want to talk about. We skeleton eaters have requisitioned many underground passages, except for us in the cemetery. Cities built under them, as well as natural caves, abandoned mines, and... the underground waterways of some cities."

"What do you want the sewer to do?" Cecilu blurted out.

"I'm afraid," Chen Qiang whispered, "it's because the transportation is convenient."

"Convenient transportation...?"

"They say they have a way to secretly take us to Arkham. I'm afraid that way is..."

The elder ghoul tapped his staff on a large rock.No echo.

"The underground transportation network of our skeleton-eaters spreads all over the world," he said proudly, "the great Mordiggian lives in the dreamland, and using the dreamland as a transit point, our skeleton-eaters can travel anywhere on the earth." The two underground passages are connected. For us, we only need to walk for an hour to reach the distance of thousands of miles.”

Dreamland is a space parallel to the real world.As a world dominated by the subconscious and the imagination, the laws of physics in the Dreamlands are completely different from those of the real world.

"Really?" Cecile doubted.

"You can witness for yourself." The elder said calmly.

Everyone turned a corner.

The bumpy and difficult underground passage suddenly changed again.There was a strange stench in the air, and the ground turned into man-made bricks.

"You can cover your nose if you want." Chen Qiang glanced at Mei Mao who stretched out her hand to pinch her nose, but stopped halfway.

On the other hand, Gu Shiyin and Kexila didn't feel much about the sudden change in the environment.

"This kind of working environment is very common to me!" Cecilu was unwilling to admit that she hated the smell of the sewer.

"OK OK……"

At this time, the appearance of the underground tunnel has completely become a city sewer.The elder led the crowd to an iron ladder.

"We're here," said the elder, patting on the ladder. "The ladder is broken, so be careful when going up."

Cecil looked at his silver mask.

"I'm the first one," Mao Mei said bravely, "boss, you wait behind."

She climbed up the ladder first, and she didn't know whether it was because she was loyal to her duty, or because she simply wanted to escape this stinking place.

[Cecile's Climbing Test 44/65 Success]

A normal ladder does not require a climbing check, but the current one is probably in disrepair, and even the agile Ceci is exposed on it, and it is wobbly.

……

ground.

In an inconspicuous corner of the New York City area shrouded in night.

The blond haired girl tore off the manhole cover at the end of the alley, and slowly poked her head out.

It's afternoon in Japan, but here is a lone moon hanging high.

"..."

In the distance, you can see the sea.

Cecilu silently took out her mobile phone, confirmed that the location displayed by GPS was in New York City, then closed the manhole cover silently, and returned to Chen Qiang and others.

"How?" Chen Qiang asked.He looked at the mysterious iron ladder and didn't want to climb up. What if he fell down?
Cecil nodded silently.

"We're in New York, boss," she said.

In less than 10 minutes, they crossed the dawn and dusk line and crossed the Pacific Ocean and the American continent.

Travel around the world in an hour.

It turns out that these unattractive ghouls still hide this kind of treasure—Green Delta has cooperated with moderate ghouls for so many years, Cecilu thought, and they have never seen them so generous...

"Among our skeleton eaters," the elder said cheerfully, "only priests and elites can use this 'dream channel'. Now, I open it to all employees of 'Fortress of Sanity'. As long as you make a request, we will It can send you to Boston near Arkham, or anywhere else in the United States. After you finish in Arkham, this transportation network will still be open to you.”

　Meow, I also want to walk for an hour, around the world for a whole week... PS: The burrowers have the ability to cause earthquakes, and Shude Meier and the most powerful burrowers can even cause a magnitude [-] earthquake .It is said that the deity of Shude Meier is under the Tibetan archipelago. The "tentacles" elements in Japanese animations in certain themes (you know that will trigger the review) are actually influenced by Shude Meier's invisible spiritual influence, revealing the physical characteristics of the Great Old One.
