Chapter 1662 Anthropologist
"Ahem, because Golin has left the resort island and does not intend to come back to cause trouble for you, so congratulations to all players for completing the main mission of this module ahead of schedule, and you will now directly enter the ending screen."
As soon as kp004 finished speaking, Liu Xing felt his eyes blurred, and then he found that he was directly teleported back to the real world, instead of going with the three Davids to find the kp004 settlement reward. It seemed that he could no longer be a newbie.
Liu Xing shook his head, picked up his phone and looked at the time, and found that it was already three o'clock in the middle of the night.
Fortunately, Song He was more accommodating to the woman in this marriage, so the woman did not plan to hold various ceremonies early in the morning, such as going to the woman's home at an auspicious time to welcome the bride. . . Liu Xing still remembers the auspicious times of several weddings he attended before. The auspicious times were usually around eight o'clock, so the relatives and friends of the man and woman had to get up and get busy at four or five o'clock.
So Song He asked Liu Xing to go to a wedding company to put on makeup and change clothes around nine o'clock, and then go with him to welcome the bride.
Six hours to go.
Liu Xing made a hunch, then set an alarm clock and prepared to sleep for a while. After all, in Liu Xing's opinion, there was about half a chance that something would happen to this wedding, so if you don't keep your spirits up, how can you cope with all kinds of emergencies? ?
As a result, as soon as Liu Xing touched the pillow, an unexplained sleepiness swept through his body.
"Damn it, Goering has already taken care of Magell and Jack, so what should we do now?"
"You ask me how I know? It seems that we can only fight with Goering! So brothers, get everything ready. Today we are going to fight Goering to the death!"
"Wait a minute, beep beep~ You should still be on the first floor now, right?"
"Yeah, Beep~ said he planned to play in the game room for a while, and go to bed when he was tired, so... holy shit, why are the lights turned off?! Could it be that Beep~ turned on the switch?"
"Beep beep~ Isn't this a trick to us? If Goring were an ordinary person, this would be a good idea. It could limit Goring's movement and vision, so we would have a chance to sneak attack on Goring; but Goring is not an ordinary person. Man, he's a deep diver! So beep, isn't this tricking us? While the light is on, we still have a chance to fight Goering with our numerical advantage, but now there's really nothing we can do if the light is turned off. Beaten."
"Dong dong dong."
"Is this guy Goering still so polite? He even knows how to knock on the door... Hmm? What does this smell like?"
"Smell of wine? It shouldn't be. Our room is so far away from the bar. No matter how good the wine is, it's impossible for the aroma to spread so far, right? Besides, the wine in this bar is just ordinary stuff; wait, Beep~'s skills seem to be There is someone who is proficient in explosions, right? So that’s not his plan..."
"Wang Defa!"
"Bang!"
The huge explosion woke up Liu Xing, and he almost fell out of bed.
"What's happening here?"
Liu Xing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then took a big sip of mineral water from the bedside, "The owners of those voices just now should be players, and they are also working on that module? But how could I What about dreaming about other players doing mods? Am I not back in the real world yet?"
Liu Xing quickly picked up his phone and clicked on the APP in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall. Then he saw that he had received a hundred points as a reward in the resort island module. However, because his highest-level character card had been promoted to In the Cthulhu area, the final reward was directly reduced to one-tenth, leaving only ten points.
However, Liu Xing didn't care about the reward, he just wanted to use this message to make sure that he had returned to the real world. . . But Liu Xing feels even more strange now, because although he has had some strange dreams before, and the people in the dreams also have different identities, he will always be the one who has experienced it, not like the one in the dream just now. bystander.
No, Liu Xing felt that he could not be regarded as a bystander in the dream just now, because Liu Xing's eyes were completely dark and there was no picture at all. He only heard a few people talking, so he could only be called a bystander.
But then again, Liu Xing felt that there seemed to be a voice among the people who spoke in the dream that sounded a bit familiar, but now it was impossible for Liu Xing to remember who he was, and Liu Xing was very curious why he was speaking in his dream. There was also a player whose name was directly silenced in the dream, but this player's operation was indeed a bit outrageous, and it looked like he blew up the entire visitor center.
Liu Xing touched his chin and felt that the key point of this dream was to verify his conjecture, that is, the resort island module is indeed a module that has been used repeatedly. Many players have experienced this module. . . Of course, it's possible that this is something I think about every day and dream about every night, and it's just a figment of my imagination.
Liu Xing rubbed his painful temples and decided not to sleep. After watching the video for a while, he got up and prepared to go see Song He.
Then Liu Xing discovered that it was already half past seven.
Unexpectedly, I have slept for four and a half hours? !
Liu Xing scratched his head and couldn't help but sigh that time flies so fast, so much time has passed as soon as he closed his eyes and opened them again.
After a simple wash, Liu Xing called to wake up Tian Qing, and then sent a message to Zhang Jingxu and others, asking them to pay attention to the time and arrive next door to Honglong Garden.
After having breakfast with Tian Qing, Liu Xing received a call from Song He.
"Liu Xing, don't be late. You are the only one missing from the groomsmen group."
Hearing what Song He said, Liu Xing glanced at the clock in the hotel lobby, "It's only eight o'clock now. It only takes half an hour for me to get here as long as there's no traffic jam, so it's definitely in time; you guys can come now Let’s put on makeup first, I’ll drive over right now.”
"By the way, now we have moved to another place to put on makeup and change clothes, because the original wedding company's front room had a small problem. The outdoor air conditioner on the second floor may have been exposed to wind and rain for so long, causing the screws of the bracket to break. It was loose, so we smashed it down and knocked off the signboard. Moreover, the debris on the ground was difficult to deal with directly. We needed to call the owner of the air conditioner on the second floor to discuss how to deal with the matter; so now we can only do it in another building. There is makeup on the facade, but the distance between the new facade and the old facade is not too far, I will send you the address now."
After Song He finished speaking, he sent a text message to Liu Xing.
"No problem, I'm already in the car, so I won't talk anymore. We'll see you in half an hour."
Liu Xing hung up the phone, started the car and said: "This is not a good sign. It's a bad start so early in the morning. It seems that Song He's wedding is unlikely to be completed smoothly; but to be honest, Song He's wedding this time There is something wrong with the marriage partner at first glance. There is nothing strange about the woman named Amin, but I instinctively felt that she should be related to the Cthulhu Running Group Game Hall, and the reason why she had a flash marriage with Song He must be the same. What’s the plot?”
"Yes, I also remember that when I watched you and Song He play football together, he seemed to have said that he wanted to date his girlfriend for a few more years before getting married, so that he could ensure that both parties truly knew each other and loved each other. Only after entering the marriage hall can we be together for a long time, so if he has not changed his mind in recent years, he should not have a flash marriage with a woman he has known for a few days."
Tian Qing frowned and continued: "By the way, actually I have forgotten to tell you, Liu Xing, that my major in university is anthropology..."
Before Tian Qing could finish speaking, Liu Xing said with a surprised look on his face: "What? Tian Qing, you majored in Anthropology? How could I remember that you majored in Literature?"
Tian Qing shrugged and said with a smile: "That's because I changed my major when I was in college. I did study literature at the beginning, but I soon found that literature didn't seem to be suitable for me because I didn't have it. I spent so much time grieving over the past, and it was too troublesome to write articles when I had nothing to do; so I changed my major to anthropology under the introduction of Li Mengyao, who was majoring in folklore at the time..."
"What?! Li Mengyao is from folklore?"
Liu Xing interrupted Tian Qing again, "Well, you should know that in the Cthulhu Game Hall, folklorists and anthropologists are known as the engines of group destruction, so the occupation on your character card will not be ..."
This time it was Tian Qing's turn to interrupt Liu Xing, "Yes, Li Mengyao and I are anthropologists and folklorists respectively."
Liu Xing took a breath of cold air. Unexpectedly, an anthropologist and folklorist sneaked into his group unknowingly. The probability of this group being destroyed was doubled.
But having said that, Liu Xing now recalled that when he invited Tian Qing to join his player team, he did not ask them what their profession was. Firstly, it was because Liu Xing had always thought that Tian Qing was a literature major. As a best friend, Li Mengyao should be about the same, so Liu Xing feels that their careers should not be a big deal.
Secondly, Tian Qing and Li Mengyao are still new players after all. Liu Xing feels that after they join his player team, they will have no use in a short period of time, because his team has been promoted to the Cthulhu area. The professional skills of many common professions were of little use, so they did not ask Tian Qing and Li Mengyao questions about their professions.
Unexpectedly, Tian Qing and Li Mengyao turned out to be the three most dangerous professions in the legendary Cthulhu Game Hall - folklorists, anthropologists and archaeologists.
"Liu Xing, are the careers of Li Mengyao and I really so terrible? I see you are starting to sweat on your forehead." Tian Qing asked curiously.
Liu Xing nodded without hesitation and said affirmatively: "If it weren't for you, I would 100% not agree to you and Li Mengyao joining our player team, even if you are also senior players in the Cthulhu area! Because in Cthulhu Players of these two professions in the Cthulhu Racer game hall are too easy to commit suicide! After all, the Cthulhu Racer game lobby requires players to play their roles well, so players of these two professions are often forced to know that there are Tigers tend to be the kind that can’t be pulled back even if nine oxen are on the tiger’s mountain, so players of these two professions often trigger some difficult modules.”
"Then there is also a classic case in the forum, that is, a team of ordinary players and a team of players with anthropologists or folklorists participate in the same module. As long as the former does not deliberately seek death, then the module's The difficulty will only be 80% of the original setting, and the latter will start directly at 100%. If you are not careful, you will have to break 100%, and some additional difficulties will appear; for example, I mentioned to you before that Liu Qindong and I, no, It should be the module that Mobius met, right? If you had been there at that time, you might have allowed us to enter the village in advance."
"is that so?"
Tian Qing frowned and said a little helplessly: "I knew I would not change my major back then. I didn't expect this profession to be so pitiful in the Cthulhu Running Team game hall. But what I want to say is that I will graduate from Li Mengyao." During the defense, I wrote a thesis about the red and white events around Chengdu. After all, the folk customs about the red and white events can be said to be different in a county or city. For example, Liu Xing, where your hometown is, the bride is leaving. When walking from home to the wedding venue, your feet can’t touch the ground? Does the groom need to be carried on his back all the time?”
Liu Xing thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's true. I remember when I was a child, I attended the wedding of one of my aunts. My uncle carried him on his back for more than ten miles, from the streets of the town to his hometown in the countryside. house."
"So after Li Mengyao heard about Song He and Amin, she said that according to her research results at the time, there seemed to be no such custom in the counties near Rongcheng that the man could not go to the woman's house in advance." Tian Qing said seriously. : "So Li Mengyao felt that this custom might have been fabricated by A Min to prevent Song He from going to her hometown. As for Song He following A Min back to his hometown after the marriage, Li Mengyao suspected that this was the time for A Min to take action. , so this wedding should be a success."
Liu Xing sighed and said helplessly: "Yeah, but I don't plan to take care of it anymore, because if this Amin is really related to the Cthulhu Running Group Game Hall, then Song He has already been written into a module, and it is difficult for us to get involved in this module. After all, this module does not seem to be difficult. It is nothing more than Song He missing when he went to Amin's parents' house, and then the players for various reasons Investigate this matter; although it is logical that we can return to Rongcheng to find Song He after returning to the Cthulhu Running Game Hall, but there is a possibility that Song He in the Cthulhu Running Game Hall She’s not married yet, or she’s already gone to Amin’s parents’ home, because the timelines of the two don’t completely overlap.”
