Real Cthulhu Running Game

Looking at the pink unknown metal in the hands of the ancient Sirius, Liu Xing realized that this pink unknown metal was probably some kind of high-tech product made by the ancient. . . Although the ancients liked to live in caves and work in agriculture and animal husbandry, the technology of the ancients was still very advanced. After all, the ancients were able to build large cities in the depths of the sea, engage in genetic engineering to create new creatures, and in the early stages of the war, they were able to fight 50-50 with the family of the stars and the Yis.

"This is my soul box. As the name suggests, this soul box can store my soul, that is, my consciousness. Because my body was damaged in the battle with the Star Family, I had to put my consciousness in this soul box, and wait for my compatriots to bring me back to the old continent and create a new body for me so that I can be resurrected." Sirius said with a smile.

Liu Xing nodded, and understood that the Old Continent that Sirius mentioned should refer to the Antarctic Continent, because the main reason for the battle between the Ancients and the Familiars of the Stars was to compete for a new continent that appeared due to the movement of the earth's crust, which is the continent where R'lyeh will be located in the future.

However, the "soul box" in the mouth of the ancients made Liu Xing more noteworthy. This setting is similar to the magic ring with the grandfather that often appeared in some fantasy novels that Liu Xing read in the real world.

Of course, Liu Xing thinks that this box of souls should be made by the ancients by borrowing the soul transfer ability of the Yis people, because the people of Yiss can transfer their souls to other creatures, so that they can live forever, and this box of souls can also preserve the consciousness of the ancients, so that the ancients have the opportunity to be resurrected in another body.

But in this way, Liu Xing can almost be sure that the underground ruins of Fisherman's Village should be built by the ancients, but after the ancients were defeated by the family of the stars, they were temporarily abandoned, and then some ancient tribe occupied the magpie's nest, otherwise this box of souls would not stay here.

"By the way, friend, I have a question to ask you. How is our battle with the Familia of the Stars going? Since you can use your consciousness to enter my soul box, it means that the Familiars of the Stars who attacked here should have been repelled." Sirius asked curiously.

Liu Xing frowned, Sirius' question was a bit tricky.

After all, although Liu Xing himself knew that the ancients had been suppressed to the depths of the sea by other mythical creatures, he trembled and dared not go out, but "Watanabe Meteor" didn't know these things.

Therefore, Liu Xing is now a little tangled, how should he answer Sirius.

As far as the current situation is concerned, Liu Xing can roughly say two things about Sirius.

The first theory is that based on the currently known information, "Watanabe Meteor" can still "speculate" that the ancients have been completely defeated, and may even have been "exterminated". By the way, let Sirius talk about the current situation of the earth.

The second theory is to choose to deceive Sirius, or to use Spring and Autumn brushwork to mislead Sirius, telling Sirius that the family of the star is no longer active on the earth, but the ancients are also in a state of recuperation due to the heavy losses in the previous battle.

The first one is that Liu Xing is worried that Sirius may not be able to withstand this blow. After all, Liu Xing doesn’t need to make any judgments now. He can know that Sirius is still expecting his race to defeat the Star Family, and then "resurrect" himself in the box of the soul, and Liu Xing himself is still in the box of the soul.

As for the second statement, it is naturally a kind of white lie. Although there are some elements of deliberate guidance, what Liu Xing said is all the truth, which should be able to stabilize Sirius' mood. . . Of course, Liu Xing felt that the possibility that Sirius found out that he was lying could not be ruled out. . .

After struggling for a while, Liu Xing finally decided to use the first statement.

After all, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Even if you can cheat for a while, you can't cheat forever. In order to avoid Sirius finding out that you lied in the future, Liu Xing felt that it was better to tell the truth.

As a result, Liu Xing shook his head and sighed and said, "Sirius, I hope you can have some psychological preparations. In fact, your race is likely to be defeated, because the current time has passed for tens of thousands of years, or even more, and you should have seen it now. The race was born after you finally fought with the family members of the Star, and before that, I didn't know the existence of your race. "

Liu Xing's words made Sirius fall into silence.

But Liu Xing is also thinking about a question now, that is why Sirius is so enthusiastic about him. After all, he and Sirius are not of the same race, and there is almost no communication between the two races of humans and the ancients, because the ancients completely lived in seclusion in the deep sea before the birth of humans, and although humans have flown into space now, humans still have no way to fully penetrate the bottom of the sea.

Therefore, according to the setting of the Cthulhu mythology, human beings only confirmed the existence of the race of the ancients through the remains of the ancients discovered in Antarctica.

Therefore, Liu Xing felt that the relationship between himself and Sirius was nothing more than a stranger who had never met before, and he was a stranger who suddenly broke into Sirius' "home", so why Sirius was so enthusiastic about him, and even called himself a friend.

After a while, Sirius finally came back to his senses, and asked: "Uh, in this way, I have been dormant in the box of souls for a long time. It seems that the world has undergone earth-shaking changes. If possible, I hope Liu Xing can explain the current world to me, okay?"

Liu Xing couldn't refuse Sirius who was so polite, so Liu Xing nodded, and said seriously: "One thing in advance, I don't know about the battle between your race and the Star Familia, Sirius, because that period of time is too long, my race may not have appeared at that time, so now I can only talk about some of the history left by my race."

"First of all, my race is called human beings, because the scientists of my race have not fully determined the specific origin of our race, so I can only say that my race officially evolved into what I am now, hundreds of thousands of years ago, there were many other races of creatures on the earth at that time, but the creatures of those races did not develop enough intelligence, so in the end my race officially ruled most of the continents of the earth thousands of years ago."

Hearing this, Sirius couldn't help interrupting Liu Xing, "Most of the continents, including the old and new continents I'm talking about?"

As Sirius spoke, he projected a global map of the earth where it was located at that time, and on this map also appeared the Antarctic continent and the continent where R'lyeh was located.

Liu Xing pretended to study the map seriously, and then pointed to the Antarctic continent and said: "On the current earth, this continent still exists. We call this continent the Antarctic continent because it is covered by heavy snow all year round. Therefore, except for a few scientists who conduct scientific research on the Antarctic continent, most people will hardly set foot on the Antarctic continent. As for the other continent, it no longer exists, or it may have sunk in the ocean."

Sirius frowned. . . If that was a frown, he opened his mouth and said, "What, is the Old Continent already covered by ice and snow? The central city established by my race was in the Old Continent, and my race was quite afraid of the cold, so now I believe what you said, my friend. My race is likely to have been defeated, but the good thing is that the members of the Star Family are even more unlucky than us, and the New Continent is gone."

Liu Xing smiled and nodded, but he was complaining in his heart, Sirius, you old man is really old enough, and your memory has already deteriorated. The Star Family can survive in the sea and land just like you ancient people. Even if the new continent where R'lyeh is located has sunk into the bottom of the sea, it is not a happy news.

After complaining in his heart, Liu Xing continued: "During the period when we humans ruled the earth, although some strange creatures occasionally appeared, uh, like Sirius, these creatures were basically glimpses, and had little impact on the history of our human beings...or the impacts are all at a deeper level, which is not known to ordinary people like me."

"Of course, for some reason, I have seen many so-called mythical creatures, and I have also dealt with these mythical creatures. I also learned that some humans have established beliefs and worship of these mythical creatures. The most important thing is that now I have a relationship with a secret church that believes in deep divers. Uh, deep divers are monsters with fish heads and human bodies."

As Liu Xing spoke, he observed Sirius' expression. The reason why Liu Xing mentioned the Deep Sea Gospel Society and the Deep Divers was that he hoped that Sirius could help him. After all, the Deep Divers were also regarded as one of the ancient enemies.

Sure enough, when Liu Xing mentioned the deep divers, Sirius couldn't help but said again: "What, do the deep divers still exist? These guys are my mortal enemies. If the Star Family who attacked here back then had the support of these deep divers, they would definitely not be able to attack here."

Hearing what Sirius said, Liu Xing knew that the wave had stabilized.

So, Liu Xing continued to add embellishment and said: "What, deep divers have existed for so long? I have seen a deep diver with my own eyes a long time ago. If I hadn't been prepared, I might have been killed by that deep diver. Fortunately, I succeeded in counter-killing in the end."

The deep diver in Liu Xing's mouth naturally refers to Mo Jin. Although "Watanabe Meteor" also knew that Mo Jin's character card was just a half-breed deep diver who had not fully transformed, Liu Xing still selectively ignored this point and classified Mo Jin's character card into the deep diver.

"I see. Sure enough, I read correctly. We are comrades-in-arms standing on the same front." Sirius looked at Liu Xing with a look of relief, although Liu Xing saw this expression as a bit penetrating. . .

But when he got here, Liu Xing finally couldn't help it, and asked: "Uh, Sirius, although I think we have become friends now, but we should have never known each other before, so why did you let me enter your soul box?"

Sirius smiled, pointed at Liu Xing and said, "I can feel the mark of that lord on your body."

Liu Xing suddenly realized that the lord that Sirius mentioned was naturally Hastur, the king in yellow.

As the mortal enemy of Cthulhu, Hastur, the king in yellow, may naturally choose to help Cthulhu's opponent, the ancient.

I see.

Liu Xing finally understood why he entered Sirius' Soul Box.

But this is also a good thing. After all, as far as the current situation is concerned, Sirius should be regarded as one of his own, and he should be able to seek some help from Sirius. Although Sirius is still in an ideological state, Liu Xing believes that the knowledge of Sirius is still very useful.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing suddenly felt that he was a bit like the protagonist of a novel, because Sirius was similar to "grandfather" in a certain sense. . .

After confirming the relationship of "comrades in arms", Liu Xing relaxed, and began to ask Sirius an important question, "Sirris, by the way, is there a bronze gate connected to the dreamland in the place where you were stationed?"

Liu Xing wanted to determine whether Sirius was a "local person". If Sirius was brought to Fisherman's Village from other places, then there was nothing to say now.

Sirius nodded and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to know about the Dreamland. Yes, there was indeed a bronze gate connected to the Dreamland where I was stationed back then, and behind that bronze gate was an unknown grassland in the Dreamland, so it could be regarded as an escape route. However, because my compatriots and I were in a confrontation with the Star Familiars at the beginning, we didn't expect the deep divers to suddenly attack us. The gate goes to the Dreamland, and then returns to our capital through another gate of another dimension in the Dreamland."

Liu Xing nodded, now he can be sure that the underground remains of Fisherman's Village can actually be traced back to the time of the ancients.

So, will Sirius leave something in the underground ruins of Fisherman's Village?
