my cthulhu game

Chapter 85

Gu Shiyin mourned for Takeda Masayoshi in his heart for two seconds, and then continued to look for a hiding place.

In the darkness shrouded in mist, the gunman seemed to disappear out of thin air.Gu Shiyin not only couldn't see the shadow of the other party, but couldn't even hear the footsteps.

Races that have the ability to fly, and even space transfer... No, these races will not use human's backward thermal weapons.

Sniper from above?It's not right, my senses are very clear, the gunshots sounded from the deck.

The gunman seemed to have disappeared on the deck out of thin air.

……

In the elevator on the ship.

Chen Qiang and the other three were rushing down to the deck.

"Chen Qiang..." Sayoko asked worriedly.

"The opponent has a gun," Chen Qiang said calmly, "We must be careful."

Qin Lingxue and Xiao Yezi had two sets of night vision devices in their equipment, but that meant that at least one of the three of them would be blinded on the deck.There are tactical flashlights, but if you know the opponent has a gun, using a flashlight risks becoming a big target.

"It's best that Xiaogu can return it by himself." Qin Lingxue said.In this case, the standard procedure of "Delta Green" will not allow other members of the team to venture out to respond.

"Listen for another five minutes," Chen Qiang said with a sullen face, "If there is no movement, we will throw a few NPCs... Oh, and ask a few people to go to the deck to observe the situation."

……

Gu Shiyin was confused.

She retreated inwardly.Maybe it would be wise to retreat to the cabin and join Chen Qiang and others.

Just when she made up her mind, a strange voice came into her ears.

[Ancient poetry sound listening test 16/25 success]

The direction is toward the ventilation duct on the side of the cabin.

The beautiful flute sounded leisurely.

Gu Shiyin's body trembled.

She couldn't be more familiar with this voice...

That is the language of the elders.

Gu Shiyin grew up alone in the pocket dimension. Apart from electronic devices, she had almost no communication with her peers.

The voice next to her ear made her very friendly, but also a little scared.

It was the first time for her to hear a "clan" calling herself.

Come on, said the voice.

What are you waiting for?

Gu Shiyin froze in place.She didn't know how to respond.

Come here, young friend, said the voice as if playing.What are you still hesitating about?I'm right here.

The emotion in the language of the flute sound was so real, the young old man couldn't help but took two steps over there, and stood in front of the air vent.

However, just as she tremblingly stretched out her hand and was about to get into the vent, her movements stopped suddenly.

A strange idea appeared in her mind.

"Chen Qiang." She picked up the walkie-talkie again.

"what?"

"Can you hear anything?" She held the walkie-talkie toward the vent. "Music, voices, or anything weird...?"

The language of the flute became sharper and brighter than before, closer to a whistle, urging the sounds of ancient poetry.At this volume, there is no doubt that it will be transmitted to the other side of the intercom.

[Jon En Chen’s listening test failed 90/70]

"I didn't hear anything, wait a minute, I'm wearing a single earphone," Chen Qiang said, "I let Xiaoxue and the others listen to it."

Chen Qiang pulled off the earphones and turned it into a loudspeaker.

[Haneda Yuki failed the listening check 36/25]

[Haneda Sayoko’s listening test was successful at 23/55]

"No." Xiaoxue shook her head.

"Only a little wind," said Sayoko.

So Gu Shiyin understood.

Is that really the case?

Ready to re-enter the old man's stance to fight, Gu Shiyin stared at the suspicious vent and slowly retreated step by step.

Uncle Xu.

The person who died in Hiroyuki Imai's room was suspected to be the deceased of Police Officer Kenhito Uesugi.

And Masayoshi Takeda.

The victims appeared one by one in Gu Shiyin's mind.

An obvious trap.

"Be careful," Gu Shiyin said, "that thing will use phantom—"

Gu Shiyin suddenly stopped talking.The continuous sound of the flute suddenly disappeared, giving her a very bad feeling.

"Illusion? Is it an illusion?" Chen Qiang's voice on the walkie-talkie was full of anxiety.

The voice resounded in Gu Shiyin's ears again, but it was no longer a melodious flute, but a sharp, distorted, frightening, mocking horror tone.

"Tekeli-li! Tekeli-li! Tekeli-li!"

"..."

……

This time, Chen Qiang also heard the same voice.

"it turns out……!"

[Qin Lingxue Cthulhu myth test failed 23/10]

[Haneda Sayoko Cthulhu myth check failed 35/15]

"What's wrong? Why didn't you speak?" Sayoko asked eagerly.

[? ? ?Attack roll 55/70 success]

"Don't come here!" Gu Shiyin shouted. The ancient genius was in incomparable fear. Her voice was full of desperate terror. Her whole body seemed to be frozen, but her thoughts still did not stop running. "Listen, enemy yes--"

[Gushiyin dodge check failed 64/40]

Communication,interrupted.

……

[Investigator "Gu Shiyin" has died]

[The consciousness of the player "Gushiyin" will be frozen until the end of the trial]

In front of him was the door leading to the deck, but Chen Qiang stopped in his tracks.

Tekeli-li - This sound is the hallmark of the Shoggoth.The culprit that led to the demise of the ancient clan.

Without the right weapons, all three together couldn't stand against the Shoggoths.

Gu Shiyin's "last words" flashed through Chen Qiang's mind.

"Call the fire alarm." Chen Qiang did not hesitate.

"What?" Xiao Yezi didn't understand.

"Pull the fire alarm! If that doesn't work, start a fire yourself, or create some chaos! The more people on the deck, the better, but we don't want to be the first to approach the deck!"

Regardless of whether it is a real Shoggoth or an alien shapeshifter, prepare enough NPC meat shields first!

"Wouldn't it be better to just shout 'kill someone'..."

"In that case, many people will choose to lock themselves in their rooms and not come out. As long as they shout 'fire', everyone will try to put out the fire - this is a sea ferry from which there is no escape...!"

"found it……"

Qin Lingxue, who spotted the fire alarm at a glance, climbed onto the box containing the fire extinguisher.She pulled off her coat, sprinkled the red wine she brought from the suite on it, and lit the lighter.

……

moment.

"Sorry," Chen Qiang said to the crowd attracted by the shout of "the deck is on fire," "The situation was very urgent at that time. In order to scare the murderer away, we had no choice but to make such a bad plan."

[Qiang En·Chen's Speech Skill Check 33/78 Success]

Most people were looking at Chen Qiang with dissatisfied eyes.They believed Chen Qiang's words, but when they thought that the murderer was still lurking nearby, and might have sneaked into the crowd by taking advantage of the chaos, they felt shuddering.

Chen Qiang also shuddered: but the source of his fear was not the gunman, but the Shoggoth.

"Quiet," said forensic doctor Nikki Renage, who took the lead, covering the body of Officer Masayoshi Takeda with a white cloth. "The murderer is around, still hiding in the darkness; the only way to protect yourself at this time is the number of people. If it were you, I would have been killed in a panic."

The crowd gradually quieted down.

"Sorry," Chen Qiang said, "The situation was urgent at the time, and I couldn't think of a proper solution in a hurry."

"The enemy is in darkness and we are in the clear," forensic doctor Nikki Renage sighed, "not to mention that we don't have weapons. Even if we do, it's all in vain if we come one by one. It's better to make the matter as big as possible and make the gunman afraid of the difficulty. retreat."

"Ms. Nikki!" A crew member hurried over, "On the other side of the deck, a strange corpse was found..."

"A strange tree?"

"No...something like a deformed freak. Come and see."

Two crew members—you could tell they were fighting off the nausea—carried a body on a stretcher.It was a dog-like creature with rubber-like skin and pointed ears, and more than half of its head had been cut off by a sharp blade.

"It's Uncle Xu." Chen Qiang understood instantly.
