Real Cthulhu Running Game

"Ah, I'm going to die..."

Liu Xing was lying on the bullock cart, looking at the sky with his eyes blankly.

Two months have passed since Liu Xing and others left the Blacksmith Village. During these two months, Liu Xing and others were either on their way or on their way.

The most important thing is that because Liu Xing and others chose the shortest road to Guangming City, they had to go through mountains and ridges along the way. It basically took a week to find a town for rest and supplies. This made Liu Xing and others who had no camping experience since childhood Liu Xing wished he could kill himself. . .

"Everyone, it's time to eat." Shen Aotian's voice suddenly sounded.

Liu Xing, who was still lying on the bullock cart like a salted fish, stood up instantly, took his own bowl and chopsticks and got out of the car to eat.

In Liu Xing's opinion, if it weren't for the food made by Shen Aotian to comfort him along the way, I'm afraid his sanity value would have returned to zero.

Sure enough, it was a wise decision to let Shen Aotian join the brave team.

Because Liu Xing and others have left the last town for five days, Liu Xing and others now look dusty. . . To put it bluntly, he is a bit unkempt. After all, there is no shampoo on this continent.

However, I don’t know if it is the racial talent of the orcs, but Hongshi Zihui has not been affected by the fatigue of the journey, and still looks so glamorous. This makes Liu Xing feel very envious, because Liu Xing has a slight mysophobia.

Seemingly noticing Liu Xing's gaze, Hongshi Zihui, who was gnawing on a bone, shook his ears and glanced at Liu Xing with disgust.

Because there are so many wild beasts on the mainland, Liu Xing and others basically rely on hunting to obtain food along the way, and these unknown beasts taste quite good, so this can be regarded as Liu Xing and others' current opinion of this place. The only good impression of mainland China.

Liu Xing and others sat on the floor and started eating.

"By the way, if I remember correctly, we have now entered the territory of the Skaven Kingdom, which means that we only have one month left to travel to Guangming City." Zhang Jingxu said while eating.

Liu Xing and others are currently at the western border of the Kingdom of Skaven, while Guangming City is adjacent to the eastern border of the Kingdom of Skaven, so Liu Xing and others need to cross the Kingdom of Skaven now.

However, when it comes to the Kingdom of Skaven, Liu Xing always has an ominous premonition, because Liu Xing has a roommate in the real world who is an avid Warhammer fan, so Liu Xing has heard a lot about Warhammer settings from him. , among which there is a race called Skaven Shu people. . . No, it's the Rat Man.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing quickly checked his memory and found that there was indeed a group of ratmen in this Skaven Kingdom.

Ratmen are one type of orcs. However, because of their extremely strong reproductive and adaptability abilities, ratmen are distributed in every corner of the continent. Unlike other orcs, they do not gather in large numbers in their respective areas. In the tribal territory, only some members will go to other areas for various reasons; therefore, there are hundreds of ratman clans and tribes on the mainland, more than the clans and tribes established by other orc tribes.

There are currently two Skaven tribes located in the Kingdom of Skaven. The stronger Skaven tribe is called the Skrei clan. This Skaven tribe is very good at using various magics, so they are different from the magic of the Skaven Kingdom. The divisions have a very close relationship, so the Skaven Kingdom also recognizes the Skryre clan as a part of the kingdom, and the leader of the Skryre clan is happy to become a foreign lord of the Skaven Kingdom.

As for the name of another rat tribe in the Kingdom of Skaven, Liu Xing's heart froze, because this rat tribe is called the Plague Clan.

The Plague Clan was originally one of the clans of the Skryre Clan, but because the leader of the Plague Clan openly worshiped Bahamut, the Plague Clan was publicly removed from the Skryre Clan, and the Skryre Clan also contacted the Skaven Kingdom. The army wanted to eradicate the Plague Clan, but because the leader of the Plague Clan received the news in advance, the Plague Clan fled directly to the ruined capital of the Skaven Kingdom - Lustia.

Because of a war many years ago, the Skaven Kingdom's capital Ruthia was destroyed in the war, so the Skaven Kingdom decided to abandon Ruthia. However, Ruthia was the capital of Skaven at that time, so its other With defense capabilities far exceeding those of ordinary towns, and with the support of Bahamut believers from other races, the Plague Clan successfully withstood the attacks of the Skryre Clan and the Skaven Kingdom, and since then the capital city of Ruth has been destroyed. Aben became the territory of the Plague Clan.

But the most important thing is that Ruth Zia is located on the only way for Liu Xing and others to go to Guangming City!

Therefore, unless Liu Xing and others are willing to make a big circle, they will definitely pass by Ruth Zia.

After reminiscing, Liu Xing couldn't help but look at Zhang Jingxu, but he didn't expect that he was still so interested in the war hammer.

According to kp Husky, everything in this world is constructed and perfected by Zhang Jingxu’s subconscious. However, because Zhang Jingxu’s subconscious contains too many things, there are many things on this continent that are obviously playing tricks. settings, such as Cai Gouzi, a Berserker-style assassin, the names of Shen Aotian's family, etc.

As for the setting of the Plague Clan, it is obviously combined with many Warhammer-related settings. For example, the Skryre clan is a top family among the Skaven in Warhammer, and is also one of the few Skaven in Warhammer. A family that is qualified to study magic, so the Skry clan in this world is so good at magic.

As for Ruthkia, the ruined capital of the Skaven Kingdom, it is also a place name related to the Skaven in Warhammer. Because a family of Skaven once studied various plagues in Ruthkia, Liu Star knew this was a hint that the Plague Clan lived up to its name.

If nothing else goes wrong, the Plague Clan will soon launch an attack on Guangming City!

As for their attack method, they naturally spread the plague!

Thinking of this, Liu Xing quickly winked at Yin En and others, and Yin En and others also understood and understood. This is something to discuss with them.

So after Liu Xing and others had a hurried dinner, they left the convoy on the pretext of going to take a bath in the nearby river.

When he came to a river, Liu Xing couldn't help but tell his guess.

"I see. I was just saying that the name Skaven Kingdom seems a bit familiar, but now we have truly confirmed that the mission of the City of Light is related to the plague." Yin En said, stroking his chin that had grown a beard.

Ding Kun nodded, frowned and said: "Warhammer, like Cthulhu Mythology, has always been tepid in China. However, after I entered the Cthulhu Running Group game hall, in order to learn more about Cthulhu Mythology, I To gain knowledge about the Sulu Running Group game, I went to a board game store near my home to become a member. Unexpectedly, most of the members in that board game store were Warhammer fans, so I also learned some about Warhammer. setting, but I don’t know much about the Skaven, after all, the friends I met in the board game store are all Warhammer 40k fans.”

Although Warhammer has also produced many video games, its essence is the same as a board game like the Cthulhu Run game. However, due to related settings, Warhammer is divided into Medieval Warhammer and Warhammer 40k (Forty Thousand Years). To put it simply, it is the magic version and the science fiction version.

However, because the relevant settings of Skaven are concentrated in medieval Warhammer, Ding Kun has no way to learn about Skaven from his friends in the board game store.

As for Zhang Wenbing, he only heard about Warhammer by its name.

Therefore, among the four people present, only Liu Xing still had a certain understanding of the Skaven.

"Well, let me make it clear now that I don't know much about the Skaven, and the Plague Clan must have been modified by the module, so I will not be responsible if there are deviations. ." Liu Xing decided to throw the blame away first, "The Skaven are typical evil creatures like the ratmen in many Western fantasy novels, but their intelligence is almost the same as that of humans. This is similar to Csu. The mythical creatures in the game are somewhat similar, so we can treat the ratmen of the Plague clan as ghouls. However, because the Skaven have a lot of miscellaneous black technologies, we must be prepared to deal with them. The Plague Clan is getting ready with their muskets and cannons.”

Zhang Wenbing looked at the book in his hand and said: "If this is the case, then these rat men of the Plague Clan are indeed a bit difficult to deal with, because the armor we are wearing is not body armor."

Liu Xing nodded. In this world of swords and magic, firearms are indeed a somewhat illegal weapon.

Of course, what is more terrifying than firearms is cannon, because if that thing hits, then everyone in the group will be killed or injured.

And Liu Xing has no doubt that the ratmen of the Plague Clan will drag out a few cannons, and even if they bring out tanks, Liu Xing will not be surprised.

After all, the Skaven are a black technology race in Warhammer, and this should be added to the Plague Clan setting by the module.

"So judging from the current situation, the Plague Clan is very likely to be ready to release the plague to Guangming City, and there is a high probability that we will not be able to prevent this from happening, because there are only a few of us, and we will definitely not be able to deal with the huge number. The Plague Clan, but we still have the opportunity to prepare the City of Light in advance, so I suggest that after entering the Skaven Kingdom, we try our best to find out the news related to the Plague Clan. Once we get the information that the Plague Clan is preparing to spread the plague, After hearing the news, we will rush to Guangming City overnight!" Liu Xing expressed his opinion.

After Yin En pondered for a moment, he nodded and said: "Liu Xing, your idea is very good, but Ruth Zia, where the Plague Clan is located, is next to Guangming City, so when we get the news, we want to inform Guangming City as soon as possible. We have to pass by Luszia. We are likely to be attacked by the Plague Clan. After all, all the ratmen of the Plague Clan are followers of Bahamut, so we have to make a good plan on how to pass Luszia safely. Szia.”

"It's very simple." Zhang Wenbing said seriously: "Currently, the Skaven Kingdom and the Skrein Clan are in a hostile state with the Plague Clan. We can definitely use this to deal with the Plague Clan, and I also believe that the Skaven Kingdom and the Skry clan are important helpers for us to complete the City of Light. After all, we and the City of Light alone cannot solve the Plague Clan, and if there is no way to solve the Plague Clan, then we will not be able to fundamentally solve the Plague Clan. problem, so we must seek the support of the Skaven Kingdom and the Skrei clan, especially the Skrei clan, because as ratmen, the Skrei clan should have a certain resistance to the plague, and maybe the Skrei clan The Li clan also has some research on the plague, but the problem now is how we can persuade the Skaven Kingdom and the Skry clan to send troops to deal with the Plague clan."

Ding Kun laughed, patted his chest and said: "This problem is actually easy to solve. We just need to find the right time to spread rumors. After all, all plagues are highly contagious. When the time comes, the Skaven Kingdom will definitely It will also be affected by the plague, so as long as we get some news about the plague that the Plague Clan is about to spread, we can follow the trend and exaggerate it. I believe that the Skaven Kingdom will definitely unite with the Skry Clan to send troops to destroy the Plague Clan!"

Liu Xing and the other three nodded in agreement.

Ever since, Liu Xing and others decided to start trying to find out about the Plague Clan after entering the towns of the Kingdom of Skaven.

Then, Liu Xing and others found a creek and took a bath.

"It's really getting hotter these two days. It seems like it's summer on this continent now." Liu Xing looked at the sun that had not yet set on the horizon and said, "When we arrive in Guangming City in a month, it should be It’s midsummer, and that’s when the plague is most likely to break out.”

Yin En sighed and said with some melancholy: "In so many years, I have never experienced a summer without air conditioning."

"Me too." Liu Xing and others said in unison.

Two days later, Liu Xing and others finally arrived at a small town in the Kingdom of Skaven.

After solving the accommodation problem, Liu Xing and others left the inn and went out to inquire about the news.

As a result, Liu Xing and others had just walked to the lobby of the inn when they saw a rat man!

This rat man looks like a big rat standing upright. He is wearing a gorgeous robe that should be specially made. There is also a staff with a sapphire on the top next to it. It seems that it should be the magic of the Skryre clan. Master.

Next to this rat man, there were two identical twin men. They looked like they were in their twenties, but their Mediterranean hairstyles made Liu Xing a little confused.

But Liu Xing knows that in medieval Europe, Mediterranean hairstyles are also a symbol of nobility.
