Real Cthulhu Running Game

  Chapter 725 Selection

"Liu Xing is right, the difficulty given by kp should be unreliable, after all, because this mod is a bit special, it's just a dream, so we definitely have no way to get points other than points. Rewards, so we will definitely choose the easiest difficulty to complete this task, there is no need to challenge high difficulty for a little point." Yin En said seriously, "So these difficulties given by kp are either made up or another. There are hidden secrets, such as Wellington, the spy of the Empire on the easiest difficulty. It is not easy for us to contact him now, because he is the spy of the Empire in the Skaven Kingdom, and we have nothing about it. You know, it's impossible to go up to him like this."

Zhang Wenbing nodded and said: "Yes, even if we meet Wellington now, it is impossible to join his camp like this, unless Wellington actively invites us, but this should not be possible, after all Lington's true identity is not visible, and his true identity is likely to be known only by His Majesty the Emperor. Even if we are his compatriots and the brave recognized by His Majesty, he may not fully trust us, because this is a When it comes to a grand conspiracy to subvert a neighboring country, the fewer people know about it, the better."

"So I think the difficulty marked by kp actually means how difficult we will encounter after joining this faction, but kp did not mention how much trouble we will encounter if we want to join this faction, this is Kesu Lupao Group's game hall has always been my favorite word game, not to mention that in the mods in the Hound of Tindalos area, there is basically no such concept as shortcuts, although we have many ways to complete the main quest of the mod , but the difficulty of implementing these methods is almost the same, so now no matter which camp we choose, the total task difficulty should be about the same."

As Zhang Wenbing said, Liu Xing also found that the modules after the Hound of Tindalos area are not like the modules in the previous two areas, there will be one or two relatively easy routes to complete the main quest. For example, in the first castle lord mod that Liu Xing experienced, Liu Xing and other players did not stay in the castle until the next morning to clear the customs according to the normal route, but took an opportunistic way to run away in advance.

And the mods in the area of ​​the Hound of Tindalos have almost blocked the back door that players want to take advantage of, and sometimes even force players to go to the dark on a road, just like Liu Xing and others last time In the module that the team carried out, Liu Xing and others have been pushed forward by the constantly emerging new plots, and they have no chance to exert their subjective initiative.

"So having said that, which camp should we choose?" Ding Kun said with a frown, "Anyway, we definitely can't be the king by ourselves. There is a way to fight the armies of the Skaven Kingdom, not to mention the hidden Empire; as for King Louis, now that he is a dead bone, I don't think we have the ability to bring him back to life."

   Everyone nodded in agreement.

Liu Xing thought for a while, and then said: "I think the easiest place for us to join now is the Covents camp, because now our relationship with Covents is pretty good, if we want to join his camp, Covents will definitely I will raise my hands in favor, but he also has a big disadvantage in this battle for the throne. First of all, his troops are really too few, and they are basically a group of recruits with a combat effectiveness of only five; The territory is so big, and the location is very awkward. It is basically impossible to rely on it to develop, so we have no chance to make a comeback, and we don't even have time to rest; in the end, it is the origin of Cowens. , Because Cowens is a commoner, although he can get the support of many commoners, those aristocratic wealthy businessmen will not easily invest in Covents, because they are not all the same, and there are better people like Bonaparte. Investment target, so it seems to me that it is very difficult for Covance to take off.”

Ding Kun, who was on the side, nodded and continued: "I just searched the situation of that Bonaparte in my memory, and found that Bonaparte was indeed a member of the former royal family, a direct descendant of the second heir to the Skaven Kingdom. , so Bonaparte's reputation within the Skaven Kingdom is very high, and his territory Sigaco has now reached full autonomy, so there are already people in Bonaparte's territory who are planning to build a country, and Louis But there is nothing to do about it; of course, this Bonaparte's personal ability is also quite good, and he is definitely a rare talent, so before Louis was on the throne, some ministers persuaded Louis' father to let him return the throne. To Louis, and as a result, Louis' father really thought about doing it."

"As a result, it is conceivable that Louis's father had better not be willing to return his family's throne, and Louis also sent those ministers to prison after he ascended the throne, so Louis's reputation has been declining since he ascended the throne; When it comes to the topic, Bonaparte is indeed a man of forbearance. He has always been immersed in business in his own fief and does not participate in the affairs of the Skaven Kingdom. This also gives Louis no chance to start with Bonaparte, but Bo Nabas cultivated a strong cavalry unit in his own territory, and in the Skaven Kingdom, which is dominated by plain terrain, the importance of cavalry units is self-evident, so this cavalry unit should be Bo Nabal's biggest trump card."

"As for the Bonaparte camp, it's actually quite easy for us to join the Bonaparte camp, because Bonaparte is somewhat similar to Lord Mengchang during the Warring States Period, and they have a large number of followers, and as long as they have a skill They are always welcome, so if we go to join Bonaparte, we just need to find a suitable reason, and Bonaparte should let us join his camp, but at the beginning Bonaparte will definitely not believe us, after all, we are not ordinary adventurers, but brave men appointed by the emperor of the empire. We bow our heads."

"Brother Ding, what you said is right. It's easy for us to get in and get out on Bonaparte's side. If we can't get out early, the war situation in the Skaven Kingdom will go in an irreversible direction. We can only die with Bonaparte, so if we want to join the Bonaparte camp, we must first think about how to convince Bonaparte to believe in us, and at least be willing to accept our suggestions." Yin En said seriously.

Liu Xing shrugged, spread his hands and said, "Then we can only go to Bonaparte with a certificate of registration, but it is not easy to get a certificate of registration that can make Bonaparte look good, so I Now I can only think of two kinds of votes-the first kind of vote is the head of Louis. Bonaparte may regard us as his own after seeing it, but he is more likely to use us as a surrogate for the flag brush. Prestige; as for the second nomination, it is about Wellington, because if we tell Bonaparte about Wellington, we will be listed as wanted by the Empire the next day, and Bonaparte will be listed as a wanted criminal the next day. Bain will protect us in all likelihood. After all, we can make his actions in the future get the support of all the forces in the Skaven Kingdom to help him reintegrate the Skaven Kingdom faster... Of course, our final result should be That is, the rabbit died and the dog was cooked, the bird was hidden, and was sent back to the empire to be a scapegoat."

Yin En raised his brows and said with a smile: "According to what you said, Liu Xing, we can't go to Bonaparte, because there are only two outcomes when we go, one is to be treated as a scapegoat, the other The other is that it has been idle all the time, in short, we have no way to complete this part of the task."

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Liu Xing replied with a smile: "I just think that it is very troublesome for us to participate in this battle for the throne of the Skaven Kingdom as foreigners, not to mention relying on the major forces. Bonaparte, who represents the old royal power of the Skaven Kingdom, is too easy to fall into the ground. Besides, there are many capable people around Bonaparte. We want to gain a place beside Bonaparte and influence Bonaparte. Nabal’s decision is really too difficult, so I personally think it’s better to forget it.”

   "Agree." Ding Kun and Zhang Wenbing said in unison.

Yin En touched his nose and pretended to be helpless and said: "Since you all think so, then I agree with you, Liu Xing, and we can also exclude Bonaparte, then the final question comes back to Welling. on the body."

Liu Xing said without hesitation: "The most difficult part of joining Wellington's forces is how do we know that Wellington is a spy of the Empire? I just checked Wellington's information and found that Wellington is now Ska. An earl of the Wen Kingdom, and the family he belongs to has existed since the early days of the Skaven Kingdom, but because this family has always been unremarkable, the title has always been between the viscount and the earl, but looking at it now The family that came to Wellington has been a **** placed by the Empire in the Skaven Kingdom from the very beginning, so this family is so low-key, only to keep it up to this day, so that they can obtain the greatest benefits for the Empire at a critical moment. "

"However, the empire should have found that the Skaven Kingdom was terminally ill, so Wellington showed a strong talent for leading troops when he was an adult. Now he is the general of a main army in the Skaven Kingdom, and he was deeply impressed by the previous king. Therefore, Louis also valued Wellington very much, so if there is no accident, Louis should let Wellington hold an important position in this war, coupled with the secret support of the Empire, Wellington's trump card But there are a lot of them. As long as we can join him, although we can't lie down and win, we won't encounter too much trouble... Well, I think I've said a lot of nonsense. The question now is how to get it. Know Wellington's true identity?"

  The crowd fell silent again.

   After a while, KP Husky said with a smile: "There are ten minutes left, I hope you can make a choice as soon as possible?"

   At this moment, Yin En suddenly said: "kp, do we have to choose a faction now? Then after we choose, is there any chance to go back and backstab? I actually don't mind being called a slave of three surnames."

   is a werewolf.

   Liu Xing and others looked at Yin En and thought so.

  kp Husky probably didn't expect Yoon En to say that, so he didn't know what to say for a while.

After a while, the kp Husky said: "As expected, he is a player of the Cthulhu running game, and there is no psychological pressure to play backstab, but I also thought about your question carefully, and found that this is actually not true. No, after all, this mod is generated by dreams. For those of you who know this is a dream, betrayal will not cause too much psychological pressure, so I agree that you can change your formation at any time, but All parties will also react differently according to your betrayal, so please think about the consequences before making a decision, after all, you all know the fate of Lu Bu."

"Besides, after completing the main quest at this stage, I will also give different rewards according to the faction you choose. If you can end with a certain faction, then you will also Get more rewards." The kp husky added.

Hearing this, Yin En said decisively: "If this is the case, then let's choose to join Wellington's forces. If it is successful, then we should be able to complete this part of the task easily, and if we can't find an opportunity, we will You can also switch to Covance as a spare tire, I believe Covance will open the door to us at any time.”

   Liu Xing and others looked at each other and agreed with Yin En's idea.

If    can join the Wellington faction, then of course it would be great.

   After making a decision, Liu Xing and others went to have dinner.

   Fortunately, Cowens didn't arrange the magic-modified version of the star-gazing pie at night, just some very common ingredients.

   Finally had a full meal.

   In the next few days, Liu Xing and others wandered around in the castle, and did not get any useful information, but the relationship with Cowens and other NPCs was pulled in a lot.

   Especially under Liu Xing's deliberate friendship, the scumbags are about to form a different surname with Liu Xing, no, they should be brothers of different races.

  So, Liu Xing is now sitting in a carriage with Zha Zha, and together with the eight hundred recruits led by Cowens, they headed to the capital of the Skaven Kingdom - Mud City.

   Obviously, the name of the capital of the Skaven Kingdom is taken from the capital of France, but it sounds a little abnormal after being reversed.
