my cthulhu game

Chapter 36 Boss has at least two stages

The side corridor of the banquet hall in darkness.

"Xiao Yezi... the movements you made are really exaggerated..."

Looking at the "Abyss" under his feet, Chen Qiang smiled wryly.

After leaving the banquet hall, Chen Qiang did not go far away, but quietly waited for the opportunity not far away.

His gloved hands were grasping in different places—and because of this, when the space in the corridor suddenly turned ninety degrees, from the corridor to a vertical "elevator shaft", Chen Qiang didn't fall down .

Gravity caused other people in the corridor to scream and fall into the darkness. Only Chen Qiang, who had been prepared and "hanged" himself by the door, survived.

Under the effect of the Yellow Clothes Ceremony, the entire hotel has begun to become a part of Carcosa.Strange phenomena spread throughout the hotel.

Even if I knew that space dislocation is one of the manifestations of "Carcosaization" and took precautions, it is a bit too much...

"Go in quickly..."

……

Because of the power outage, the banquet hall was completely dark.

The story in the game continues to advance.Camilla has defeated several bosses, and is getting closer and closer to the taboo fact in Iti City.

Scary rumors spread in the city. It is rumored that a stranger wearing a mask has come to the city, and he is the messenger of the King in Yellow. When the King in Yellow comes, Iti will disappear. Only Carcosa will exist.

The plot is unremarkable, but the crazy and distorted atmosphere of the scene is lingering.Some of the fans fell to the ground, some were sobbing silently, some were talking to themselves in the air, a lady was holding a table knife and trimming her hair in front of the silver plate, Yoshikawa Hideki was dumbfounded Standing there, whispering something in his mouth.

"The dead king hunted the gods and covered the sky and the sun." He murmured.

Only sister Qiu is still mechanically and coldly attacking the game.She seemed to have forgotten herself, leaving only Camilla in the game.Except for the initial death due to Chen Qiang's interference, the "GAME OVER" interface never appeared again.

[Played Camilla in the first act of the incomplete "The King in Yellow", SC1D6/1D20]

[Alice Qiu's sanity test failed 81/18]

【1D20=3】

[Alice Qiu currently has 15 sanity points left]

If anyone still wants to stop sister Qiu from continuing to play, it is Tu Lizhu.She finally broke free from the insidious magic of the game show, but the chaos in front of her only made her more terrified.

【SC0/1D6】

[Christina Tu sanity check 8/69 success]

She didn't know that there was no electricity in the building now, and even so the game was still running.

She thought it was just a light bulb going off in the room...

Immediately, she must stop sister Qiu from continuing to attack this cursed game, now!

Tu Lizhu picked up Kahr-MK9.This was originally what sister Qiu brought, and now she is going to use this thing to save sister Qiu.

Tu Lizhu struggled through the crowd and ran to the game console—the staff members were dancing not far away, showing no intention of stopping her—holding the gun with trembling fingers, and pulling the trigger toward the game console.

Click.

...the pistol was unresponsive.

"Oh, you have to put the safety on the gun. It won't help."

"Thank you...huh?"

Tu Lizhu turned her head abruptly.She saw Xiao Yezi standing at the main entrance of the banquet hall, wearing a pure white robe, holding a golden mask in her hand - above the mask was a crown, the crown and the mask were integrated.

No matter how natural Tu Lizhu is, she understands...

"It's you?"

"You don't really need to break it, right?" Sayoko didn't answer Tu Lizhu's question, but put forward her own "suggestion" thoughtfully, "You just need to unplug the power."

"you……"

Tu Lizhu looked at Xiao Yezi vigilantly, but still bent down and unplugged the power.

The machine continues to run.

Tu Lizhu: "..."

"Actually, the electricity of the whole building has been cut off long ago." Sayoko said leisurely.

"But, but the game has been..."

The game console was less than half a meter behind her, the indicator light was still on, and Tu Lizhu could even hear the sound of the hard drive running.

"It's over." Sayoko's eyes swept across the crazy crowd, "The great Carcosa is about to come here... Why, you didn't see..."

She looked at Tu Lizhu's face.

On the big screen, a ragged stranger appeared in the center of the screen, and Princess Camilla and Queen Kasiruda stared at him.

"...I remember that you are also on the list of holy seals I personally wrote." Xiao Yezi frowned.

"what is that?"

"Let's check it out," Sayoko asked. "My friend, have you ever seen the Yellow Clothes Seal?"

"I can't hear—" Tu Lizhu was puzzled.

however……

"I have seen."

"I have seen."

"I've seen it!"

The rising and falling voices made Tu Lizhu's hair stand on end.Xiao Yezi's voice was not loud, but nearly half of the people in the banquet hall gave an affirmative answer in unison, as if controlled by a mechanical lock.

Sayoko sighed.

"Haven't you read the letter? Or read it to your friends?"

"No." Tu Lizhu shook her head.

"That's right," Sayoko shook her head, "That's really a pity. But it doesn't matter. This is your chance too."

"What do you mean?"

"Now use the gun in your hand to shoot 'Camilla' who is playing the game," Sayoko said calmly, "If the player dies, the game will be interrupted, and these irrational people will be saved."

"Do you think I will believe you!" Tu Lizhu screamed, "And she is my friend!"

She turned the gun and pointed it at Sayoko.

And on the game screen, the morbid murmur of the stranger in white became clearer and louder. The BGM plays soft, chaotic rising tunes.

because they saw the king

Even if she covered her ears, it didn't work, the voice seemed to come from Tu Lizhu's heart.

"The hour of the coronation has come," said Sayoko, donning the crown in which the mask melted into one, "and you only need to applaud madness."

boom!
"Maybe," Bai Shaobao appeared by the door with a shotgun in his hand, and the empty magazine fell aside. Shi Li followed behind him every step of the way. "What we will offer you is not madness, but bullets."

[Bai Shaobao shooting (rifle) check: 14/75 success]

【Injury 2D8+4=19】

The bullet pierced Sayoko's thin body.She screamed and fell to the ground.

"You're all right!" Tu Lizhu exclaimed in surprise.

After playing the game to this point, she couldn't tell whether it was a game or a simulated reality.

"call."

Chen Qiang climbed into the banquet hall from the "elevator shaft" with difficulty.The gravity returned to normal. In the eyes of others, it was as if he had knocked open the door and then fell heavily on the side of the door.

"Chen Qiang," Bai Shaobao said blankly, "You are late. The boss has already been defeated by us..."

Heh, you should be clear that a boss of this level should have at least two stages, Chen Qiang secretly thought.

He didn't speak, but slowly walked over and protected Sayoko who was lying motionless on the ground.

"Do you really think she's dead?" Chen Qiang said softly.

"What are you doing?" Bai Shaobao raised his rifle again.In the last magazine, there are still five full bullets.

Sudden--

Tu Lizhu covered her mouth.Sayoko, who was lying on the ground like a corpse just now, suddenly got up from the ground, her mask seemed to grow on her face.
