Chapter 2832: Naya is in bad luck (Part 1)
Schiller jumped into the swimming pool.
The other three were stunned. They all lay down on the edge of the swimming pool. Cobert said with some embarrassment: "This...should we save him?"
"This is a trap, but he can't be unaware of it. Maybe he has other plans. Let's get him out before he dies." Jerome said.
Schiller soon ran out of breath. Jerome got him out in time. Fortunately, the swimming pool was not deep. Even if the person sank to the bottom, he could be pulled out in one go.
Schiller lay down on the edge of the swimming pool and coughed painfully. After a while, he wiped his lips and said: "It's useless to kill all the way to the main entrance of the hotel."
He didn't say the specific details, but it was probably the same as the first ending. It seemed that the hotel problem was solved, but the most that could be touched was the level of incarnation. If it didn't affect Naya, it wouldn't solve the fundamental problem.
For mortals, it is basically impossible to touch the true body of the Outer God. The Cthulhu mythology system is also flourishing, and many great people have emerged. However, in those excellent works, no investigator has ever been heard of who can fight against the existence of Naya's level. If he can come back alive after encountering the Outer God, it is already a legend among legends.
Schiller jumped in again before he even took two breaths. The three people on the shore were already numb. They saw the gap after Schiller exhaled and fished him out.
"There is nothing between the two hotels." Schiller said: "After jumping down, the wind will blow you down and only a skeleton will be left."
This is obviously the perspective of an observer, but the three people tacitly did not ask him who he threw down.
Then Schiller went down more than a dozen times, basically eliminating all possibilities of breaking the situation. All the hardware facilities of the hotel cannot be destroyed. The places outside the hotel will die if you jump down. The abnormalities inside the hotel cannot be overcome. Taking all the possible ways to leave the hotel can only get superficial peace, and eventually be entangled by the incarnation of the Outer God.
It seems that the best ending of this movie is that the group escapes from the hotel in a very embarrassing way, then suffers harassment for decades, and finally reunites in the hotel to fight to the death, but all end up with a tragic death.
Although it sounds tragic, this plot is the mainstream in many literary and film works of the Cthulhu mythology system, because the main theme of this mythology system is despair, and the lack of hope is the deepest horror.
The other three people sat on the edge of the swimming pool, silent for a while, and the degree of despair was that even a madman like Jerome didn't know how to resist.
In theory, if the outer gods want to have fun, then the best revenge is to make him unable to have fun, that is, collective suicide.
But they also know very well that there are endless humans like them, and people will not feel sad because the ants in the ant nest they are playing with today commit suicide, because they can change another ant nest tomorrow and still have fun.
When you are too weak, all your resistance looks funny. All your pretending to be serious postures and expressions, your attitude of thinking seriously and trying to survive, your courage and strength to fight to the death, all add to the absurdity and laughter.
Schiller did not jump in again, because this swimming pool obviously not only makes people feel painful, but also weakens people's mental strength. Schiller's spirit is already on the verge of danger. If it happens again, he will be brain dead.
"I don't think there is any other way." Cobblepot said: "This is an endless reincarnation hell, just to trap everyone here. We are not special. Maybe this is our fate."
Schiller did not blame his negative attitude, because at this point, not going crazy on the spot is already a manifestation of strong willpower.
To be honest, his teammates are not very capable, but their mentality is very stable.
In fact, Schiller did not tell them a few endings, because if he told them, it would seem more desperate, that is, the power of copyright is also invalid here, and drawing Mickey Mouse is not easy to use.
There is no point in trying to break through the difficulties with the funny characters who always work. The essence of everything is reflected here. Unless you can break the dimensional wall and pull the real bodies of these funny characters here, and even their creators, you can't break through the blockade.
You can't go back to heaven, that is to say, to some extent, the universe administrator's management here is also flawed.
But because of this, Schiller is more certain that Naya's real body is likely here. If it weren't for the Thousand-Faced God, the angels' management of the universe would not have such a big loophole.
People always say that Cthulhu cannot be looked at directly, but facing the outer gods is another difficulty. You have to find him before you look at him directly, and compared to the weak ship Cthulhu, the outer gods are all hexagonal warriors.
One side of Naya has exceeded it, because he has completely overcome the weakness of blindness, stupidity and lack of subjective initiative.
It's really interesting. The returning bishop sorted out the clues in his mind, and then he found that there are only a few roads, and walking back and forth is a dead end.
Although I don't know whether finding Nyarlathotep will be the end, if there is any room for a breakthrough, it is to try to find the real body of this Outer God.
Although if you think about it carefully, it is useless to find it, because Nyarlathotep cannot be looked at directly, and humans cannot communicate with his real body directly, otherwise their brains will explode, so it's still a dead end after going around in circles.
Schiller made a decision and that was to wait.
Yes, he planned to do nothing and just wait here, because he knew that now he was alone, but he was no longer alone.
While waiting, Schiller began to think about Naiya's purpose. Although they were happy to have fun, if they had free time, they wouldn't mind getting some benefits.
Schiller always felt that some of what the Black Pharaoh said was true. In other words, Naia was making such a big move not just for little Bruce, but at least partly for him.
But what is it about him that Naija will target? It can't be because of the nameless fog, right? Then he went to find Gray Fog. What was he looking for?
No, Schiller suddenly had an idea. The nameless fog is not important to Naiya, but the absence of the nameless fog is very important to Naiya.
Otherwise, why would he come to visit her as soon as she and Hui Wu separated? He had dealt with Naia several times before when he was above Barbatos. Why didn't he take action at that time?
In the Cthulhu mythology system, there are too few descriptions of the nameless fog, but Schiller estimated that Naija could not do anything about the gray fog, so when the gray fog was there, he was honest and managed to catch the gray fog and leave. This opportunity came to me.
But if the first ending is really an ending, the gray mist comes, but the unburdened person leaves again. This shows that Naia does not want to harm herself, and even if she is entangled again later, there should be no substance. Otherwise, the gray fog would not have gone so easily.
So what does this guy want to do?
Don’t you really just want to pester yourself to have a drink?
Then I've drank this wine and I'm almost done with it. Why do I have to perform the same thing over and over again and trap myself here?
Thinking of this, his train of thought basically stopped. Schiller calculated that time was almost up, and he lit a white candle.
Greed came. As soon as he came over, he picked up the note and wrote, but he didn't write long, he just left a sentence and then left.
The bishop came back confused, and became even more confused when he saw the words on the note. Greed wrote on the note "summon mediocrity."
Schiller looked left and right, up and down, but he didn't fully understand the magic of this trick. He couldn't handle something that he, the pathological state, and the normal state couldn't handle. Why did you call mediocrity over? He couldn't be scared to death on the spot?
But Schiller really didn't have any clever ideas. He simply lit a white candle and silently recited the name of mediocrity in his heart.
When Schiller opened his eyes again, his face was confused. Ban Ban had no intention of getting a body alone. He was sleeping in the tower, and someone opened the door and pulled him over for some reason.
He looked left and right, first startled by Gordon's state, then he looked hesitantly at Cobot's legs, and finally realized that he was standing on the edge of such a large swimming pool.
As expected, he was startled, slipped, and fell directly into the swimming pool.
Following the plop, Jerome was still a little strange. He said, "Why is there so much noise when going down this time? Does he think that the different posture when entering the water will provide new clues?"
Schiller's fall into the swimming pool was not as peaceful as last time. Although the water was not deep, he couldn't swim at all. He lost his balance for a while and choked several times.
The first few times he entered the water, he was at the edge of the swimming pool. Schiller's feet slipped and he fell into the middle of the pool. His legs and feet were not honest, so he kicked left and right. The pool was not deep. Schiller felt his left side after just two pedals. His foot kicked something away.
Jerome looked at the whirlpool on the water with some shock.
Schiller took the plug off the pool drain valve? ? ?
There were indeed fewer and fewer fruits in the swimming pool, and they were all discharged along the drainage pipe. Schiller, who was sitting in the middle of the swimming pool soaked to the skin, still looked like he was surviving the disaster.
After he stood up, he stared at the drain and said, "Isn't it right? Shouldn't this kind of professional swimming pool have a professional water tanker to pump the water? Where does this drain drain the water?"
After he said this, a few others realized that most swimming pools do not change water through an outlet and in through an inlet as many people imagine. Most of them use chemical cleaning, even if they require a complete water change. , it was also connected to a pipe and sent to the water truck, and then another truck of water was pulled over, but it was not discharged into the hotel's drainage system.
So where did the water go?
Several people jumped into the swimming pool and took a closer look, only to find that the drain outlet did not seem to be matching, but someone had drilled a hole in it, and Schiller kicked off the blockage.
Then they took a closer look and found that there were no water pipes under the hole, which meant that the water in this pool should have flooded the top floor of the hotel by now.
Schiller took a breath, and then said: "It's not my fault. The opening is so small. If it were ordinary water, it wouldn't flow so fast, unless it was much heavier than ordinary water."
Jerome has a Ph.D. in physics. How could he not understand this? He hesitated and said, "This water is indeed not ordinary water. Should we go down and have a look?"
