Chapter 264 The Road to Poor Mountains and Bad Waters
Through the memory of Professor Armitage and others, Pickman is also familiar with the many terrifying existences in the Arkham area, which is called "Lovecraft Valley".

Wilbur Whateley and his brethren.

The Necronomicon in the restricted section of the library.

Contact with the superior race...

When the University's greatest minds merged into Pickman, the ghoul gained extraordinary foresight.

"Thank you for your knowledge, Armitage," Pickman thought silently, showing a sinister smile, "but this time, maybe you don't need to solve the Dunwich horror."

I am now stronger and wiser than you—

The son of Yog-Sothoth, called Wilbur Whateley, and his brother, were more valuable in their own hands.Even with Chen Qiang's interference, he gained knowledge of Yog-Sothoth's "Final Void".Thinking of this, Pickman couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

[Pickman's Listening Check 28/95 succeeded]

The students' gossip reached Pickman's ears.

"Did you know? Professor Armitage's bank vault has been robbed."

"..." Pickman's smile froze a bit.

And the two students continued:

"Professor Armitage! Who?"

"Dummy - our Librarian, Chief Librarian."

"What's the matter? I haven't heard of any robbery."

"Oh, Professor Armitage has an anonymous account at the First Bank of Arkham, which he uses to trade rare books with unnamed sellers all over the world."

"How could it be stolen?"

"It seems that the thief is walking into the bank in a dignified manner, reporting confidential information that only the professor knows, and withdrawing his money. Now the professor and the police are wrangling with the bank, and I believe there will be a result soon."

"Cough!"

Pickman couldn't help coughing.

The only time there is a shortage of money... He glanced at his pocket awkwardly, couldn't help but reach in and hold the banknotes in his hand tightly.

Hmm... we're good friends, aren't we, Armitage?Forgive me for embezzling your bank account, it's fine, right?

The big ghoul laughed at himself, and left without looking back.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

In a luxurious suite on the top floor of the Miskani Toko Hotel.

"it is good."

Facing the full-length mirror, Lily tied her hair into a neat ponytail.

She had planned to sneak out some time, but her uncle and aunt got an urgent telegram around the morning and left from Arkham.

[Lily's charm check is 58/85 successful]

Lily easily regained the opportunity to move freely by giving the bodyguard "accommodation" of the pocket money given to her by her aunt.

She didn't tell her uncle and aunt about Chen Qiang and his party.

Chen Qiang and his group's weird Lili saw it all.Their identities are very prominent, but they don't have much cash; they speak with weird accents, often mixed with words she can't understand; Into the "future home city" at the tech fair; they also have something to do with that - the unspeakable, nameless monster!God forbid, they are hostile to the monster!

My uncle is a realist.Tell my uncle these words, and he will definitely reprimand himself for daydreaming.unless……

I should solve my own problems, Lily thought.

"Come on." Lily washed her face with cold water, patted her cheek, and walked towards the car parked outside the hotel.

……

Considering that the number of sanity pool points required to use "Other Gods" to control the giant son of Yog-Sothoth is unknown (children born of Yog-Sothoth through human women are not divine, but often know some spells ), Chen Qiang was not in a hurry to significantly restore the sanity of his own investigators.

Koyuki and Sayoko were left in Arkham.Chen Qiang tried his best to bring investigators with higher sanity points to Dunwich: Qin Yixian, Cecilu, and...

"Huh." Lily frowned, staring at Bai Shaobao in front of her.She had never seen this man before.

"This is my classmate and friend," Chen Qiang introduced, "Baier Kukedi, you can also call him Xiaobai or Bai Shaobao directly."

Bai Shaobao rolled his eyes.He was moved from the future by Chen Qiang using a systematic method of moving with precious materials, and Chen Qiang obviously planned to drain his last ounce of labor.

"Mr. Bai." Helena said calmly.After thinking about it, Chen Qiang still took this hero investigator as the pinnacle of the exploration team.

"Mr. Bai," Lily nodded obediently, "Mr. Chen, good morning."

"Get on the passenger seat." Chen Qiang pointed to his side.He still hopes that there will be an aborigine from this time and space present, which can save a lot of trouble.

Qin Yixian glanced at Chen Qiang.Xiaoxue wasn't here, he thought, he had to keep an eye on Chen Qiang, if he took advantage of Xiaoxue's absence...

Pickman, who was alone in a car, simply bowed his hands.

Chen Qiang, Qin Yixian, Bai Shaobao, Pickman, Helena, Cecilu, Lily, the seven left Arkham in three cars.Everyone was worried about letting Pickman lead the way and caught his car in the middle.

……

"You have a car now." Sitting in a brand new Ford, Lily sighed.

"We have recovered our funds." Chen Qiang said calmly.

Bai Shaobao and the useless female shop assistant Elizabeth who stayed in this era exchanged through time and space. When they were transported to this era, they also carried some cash from this era—with the anti-counterfeiting level of this era, even if there was a slight mistake , it is difficult for ordinary people to see through.

The "Green Delta" of the 21st century is seeking the cooperation of Arkham officials to shut down the increasingly suspicious computer room, but it is not known when there will be results.

"Ugh."

In fact, Chen Qiang really wants to drive his super bulletproof pickup - but this thing is too much beyond this era, and it will cause commotion if it is ostentatious...

……

Dunwich is, indeed, remarkably old.It is said that before the colonists settled here, there were Indian tribes hiding among the nearby mountains.

The road gradually extends towards higher places and becomes more and more bumpy.The hillside is dark and steep. The upper reaches of the Miskatonic River originates from the mountains and twists and turns in the direction of Arkham. From a distance, it winds like a poisonous snake.It had just rained last night, and there was a smell of earth everywhere.

By ordinary people's standards, this place can be called a beautiful place.However, the decadent atmosphere brought by the deserted buildings in the distance makes people uncontrollably disgusted.

　Sudden fever...may take a leave of absence tomorrow T=T - Bean knowledge living in PS: In a few settings, Cthulhu, Hastur and Wusum (what? What kind of god is Wusum? ? It is a soy sauce living on Mars) are the children of Yog-Sothoth, the mother is unknown.
