my cthulhu game

Chapter 213 Lord Shoggoth's Gaze
[Chen Qiang succeeded in listening test 25/73]

Chen Qiang paid careful attention to the movements in the lunatic asylum.

There was "quietness" in the madhouse (a hoarse male voice roared "I'm rich!", and then fell silent), and it was obvious that the god of decay was not among them.If there was such a thing, the lunatic asylum would have been flying like dogs and dogs, and the picture was so beautiful that I dare not look directly at it.

So, is there a human being hidden in the madhouse who made a contract with Kwache Utaos?
"...the possibility is very high."

Chen Qiang remembered what Qin Yixian said, that this world is different from the virtual world, and that Mr. Bigby was a hunchback when he was locked up in the madhouse.

Humanity's great magicians have many ways to achieve immortality (although almost all of them are unreliable), and making a pact with Quache Utaos is one of them.However, the people who make contracts with Quache Utaos are all hunchbacks. If they are not hunchbacks, they will be turned into hunchbacks by Quache Utaos.

That's how Kwache Utaos likes hunchbacks.Considering that its name is long and awkward, Chen Qiang decided to call it the hunchback star.

Bigby claimed to have lived thousands of years.It is very likely that Bigger in this world has chosen this mysterious old ruler who has never seen the beginning or end of the dragon as his means of immortality.He used the power belonging to the Old Ones and was recognized by the system as purple.

[Stop Yog-Sothoth, the coming of the one who makes all things: unfinished]

【Stop Msisha, the coming of the overlord of Tindalos: not completed】

"In short, this will unlock the fifth mission."

[Arkham Gods] There are seven targets in total, and there are two left. Chen Qiang can be sure that one of them is related to Qin Lingxue's vague memory, but Chen Qiang has no better choice than to wait for Helena's treatment to end. method.

No... there is another way.

Among the system rewards, the only glass altar that can monitor the existence of mythology in the whole city is still in D City in Huaguo. If it is placed in Arkham, it can directly monitor the movements of the whole city.

With luck, just as Chen Qiang triggered the mission of the hunchback star just by standing outside the wall of the madhouse, he could directly trigger the last two missions.

However, the altar must be placed close to the city center to be effective.

A safe place must be found as soon as possible...

"We still have a lot of time to verify this." Chen Qiang thought to himself.

Qin Yixian and others don't know, but Chen Qiang understands it very well.Msisha is an old rival of Yog-Sothoth, and the investigations about them are likely to be "bound" together, and solving one will hopefully solve the other.

Whether it is the large-scale computer project of the Computing Department, the Pickman's hospital and store, or the Arkham Asylum, they are all real estate, and they are objects of exploration that cannot be moved.

If it was not Arkham Town in the United States, but a country in chaos in East Africa, Chen Qiang even wanted to directly gather a group of people to attack the above-mentioned area with a scalpel, commonly known as "kicking the door".

And now, I have to think about it.

"Mr. Chen."

Cecilu, who had been listening to Gu Shiyin, raised her head.

"Gu Shiyin went to see Pickman at the orthopedic treatment center in the south," Cecilu said.

"Let's go over there too," Chen Qiang said, "If there is an emergency, we can also support it."

Standing outside the orthopedic treatment center and scanning the myth map, you can confirm how many ghouls there are under Pickman.

How many gods and monsters are squatting in the small city of Arkham... Let yourself take a good look.

……

Pickman Center for Bone Marrow Therapy.

in the office.

Richard Pickman, in a gray suit, pored over a photo Elizabeth had sent from a pawn shop.Elizabeth Miller was indifferent to the business, but Mr. Pickman could see things that no mortal could see, just by looking at the photographs.

"The Great Cosmic Order" by the ancient Greek philosopher Democritus?
That is indeed a real anecdote.

However, among the ancient Greek philosophers, Democritus was also a virtuous person. Few people have heard that he was like Pythagoras (internal research of the skeleton-eating clan shows that he was an Is) and Empedoc Le (who secretly learned knowledge from the Fire Spirit and finally jumped madly into the crater of the erupting volcano) is also good at mysticism.

[Pickman’s archeology check with penalty failed 84/79]

The language was indeed Greek, but through the photos, Pickman could not confirm whether the parchment was forged in contemporary times.

[Pickman succeeded in the ancient Greek test 87/91]

"The order of the universe is made of atoms; all atoms are evenly divided into four properties. Out of Cthugha comes scorching fire, whose offspring Afom Zha spits out icy fire; water out of Cthulhu Together with Pokurug; Hastur the indescribable, Ithaqua the cloud, Kwache Utaus the hunchbacked mummy, gave birth to the wind; Shabu Nicholas and Tsatogua symbolized the earth. Ruler It's all about..."

Uh, it's gone below.

[Pikman Cthulhu Myth check failed 88/45]

Pickman has read many classics, including those that are no longer circulated in the world.He could barely make out a few dignified names, but there were also unheard ones like Kwache Utaus.As for the "Element Theory", it is true that some ancient Greek thinkers were used to dividing the great beings they encountered in this way, but Pickman did not know whether Democritus, the author of "The Great Cosmic Order", was also one of them, let alone be able to conclude Whether his division is correct.

"Boss?" Elizabeth on the other end of the phone trembled, and the amiable Mr. Pickman's sudden silence meant that he was angry.

"Go and contact the seller," Pickman said, as if a judge was giving a death sentence. "If you can't contact...you know what I mean. Just wait for the fire."

"Yes! Yes! Yes, boss..."

Pickman hung up the phone upset.

The people with the most anecdotal books in the world are undoubtedly the Skeleton Eaters.

Perhaps the envoy of the god of the burial place is deliberately using a lost book to attract the attention of the traitor himself; perhaps it is really a mythical book wandering among the people.Either way, you can't miss it.

"Do you need my help?" On the other side of the desk, a man with a big shoulder and a bald head in a loose medical white coat and a pair of black corrected leather shoes shrugged arrogantly, "You seem to be in trouble."

"Go about your business, Mr. Charney," said Pickman irritably.

The walls of the office are covered with X-rays, each of which reflects the human bone marrow.All the photographed bones are covered with petty characters that no longer exist in the world, shocking and densely packed...

"Naturally. I will continue to translate for you." Mr. Shani grinned.

Pickman snorted.

"Then don't live 'Tekeli-li' in my office," the ghoul raged, "especially while I'm on the phone. I know you're in control, Lord of the Shoggoths."

downstairs.

Officer Barker, carrying Gu Shiyin and her younger sister Emily, stopped the car.

"That's great," he said happily to himself, "This is the penultimate parking space."

"That's great." Gu Shiyin tilted her head happily.
