Real Cthulhu Running Game

At this moment, Alice suddenly ran over and whispered something to Yu Lei, and after listening, Yu Lei said something to Gongzi Ying.

"Brother Peng, I have something else to deal with, so I have to go back first. But if you have any new ideas, you can inform me as soon as possible. I will also arrange for Brother Yu and the others to keep an eye on the situation of the King of Beasts. After all, the four-winged giant eagle has been hovering over the King of Beasts, and it seems that it wants to attack the King of Beasts."

After Gongzi Ying finished speaking, he hurried back to his manor without waiting for Liu Xing to answer. It seemed that this matter was quite urgent. Before Alice followed Gongzi Ying back, she did not forget to make a very subtle gesture towards Liu Xing.

If Liu Xing had not discussed it with Alice long ago and knew that she would definitely take the time to make a gesture to him, Liu Xing would definitely have ignored Alice's little gesture.

In short, Liu Xing had discussed one thing with Alice before, that is, Alice is now the player who is truly closest to Gongzi Ying, so it is natural to let her be responsible for collecting information about Gongzi Ying. What's more, Alice has done similar work before. For example, when Liu Xing first met Alice, Alice was an undercover agent in a mysterious organization, and had already become an important figure in that mysterious organization.

Liu Xing estimated that if the players led by himself had not come out to cause trouble halfway, Alice might really have a chance to become one of the top bosses in this mysterious organization.

So now Alice has returned to her old job, and she has agreed on one thing with Liu Xing, that is, when Gongzi Ying has important news to convey but does not have enough time to say it from beginning to end, Alice can use a gesture to tell Liu Xing what the news is about.

If he makes a "Yeah" gesture, it means that the news is related to the third prince. If he gives a thumbs up, it means that the news comes from within the manor, that is, something happened to Gongzi Ying, Yu Lei and others. As for clenching his fist, it means that the source of the news is unknown.

In general, these three gestures are enough.

And now Alice just made a "Yeah" gesture, so Gongzi Ying received news from the third prince, so he was in a hurry to go back to deal with it?

That was understandable. After all, the news coming from the Third Prince at this time must be very important news, and it was most likely related to the previous main storyline, so Liu Xing still looked forward to Gongzi Ying talking to him later.

But this is not important now. What is important is that the four-winged giant eagle is still circling in the air, as if looking for an opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the mimic plant.

It seems that the four-winged giant eagle has some understanding of the mimicry plants, so it knows that if it acts rashly, it will most likely end up losing more than it gains. After all, the mimicry plant at this time is like a pitcher plant, and the four-winged giant eagle is an oversized insect. So if the four-winged giant eagle is not prepared before taking action, it will step into the trap set by the mimicry plant and become its last dinner before becoming a human, and a big one at that.

If the four-winged giant eagle is well prepared, then this trap is just a little entertainment for it before it opens. Moreover, the four-winged giant eagle has obviously figured out the current situation, so it is very clear that the mimicry plant below is in a weak state at this time. However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and a rotten boat still has three pounds of iron, so the final strength should be placed near this fruit.

Therefore, in the opinion of the four-winged giant eagle, he must find the flaw of the mimicry plant and deliver a fatal blow, otherwise he might suffer a loss if he gets involved in a fight.

After all, two fists are no match for four hands, and a four-winged eagle may not be able to gain the upper hand against a mimicking plant with who knows how many tentacles. So the four-winged giant eagle knew that he must not be too anxious at this time. Anyway, the fruit still had a long time to fully mature, so he could take it slow.

Hawkeye, activate!

Of course, in the eyes of Liu Xing and other players, the four-winged giant eagle has not yet taken action, but has been circling in the air. In the final analysis, it is still giving players time to choose how to stand on the team. After all, the group of players closest to the mimic plants and the four-winged giant eagle, that is, the players in Tianshui Town, have to walk for ten minutes to join the battlefield. If you add the time for thinking and preparation, it will be more than half an hour.

Therefore, Liu Xing felt that if the four-winged giant eagle really wanted to take action, it would have to be half an hour later, and this attack was just a feint. This would allow players who saw the four-winged giant eagle and the mimicry plant for the first time to have a relatively clear understanding of these two powerful monsters, allowing players who have not made a decision to make their own choices, and allowing players who have already made a choice to know what they should do to cooperate.

In short, Liu Xing and others still have time to discuss at this time, and the players in Tianshui Town have also gathered together, because they all know that all the players in Tianshui Town must make the same decision at this time.

"Something is wrong."

Seeing that there were other NPCs around, Liu Xing led everyone to the Alliance Hall first, and then he said, "I believe some of you have noticed the pitfalls that the Cthulhu game lobby has set for us in the system prompts. What we are facing now is not a task that must be accepted and completed, but an optional plot. According to other games, it is an emergency event that will be triggered when you pass by a certain place. If you are willing to participate, you will have the opportunity to get some rewards, but of course you may have to reload the game."

"But if you are in a hurry to do other tasks, or you are not interested in cleaning up these optional emergencies for the time being, and plan to deal with them all at once at the last minute to avoid a wasted trip, then you can just pass by without looking back and ignore everything in front of you! Anyway, emergencies like this will refresh after a while after being ignored... Of course, today's good show of Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong will definitely be gone if we miss it, so if we don't make any choice at this time, we will just watch the fun from the sidelines and see if there is a chance to pick up some leftovers after they are done fighting."

"So personally, I think this might be a trap set for us by the Cthulhu game lobby. If we were not players from an alliance, but were just random players who appeared in the area in groups of three or five, we would probably mistake the plot for a mission and join in the drama of Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong. But we all know that when masters like Guan Gong and Qin Qiong fight, the passing soldiers can be killed by the aftermath of any random move, let alone being targeted."

"I believe everyone should be clear about this. After all, we have more or less discussed how to fight the four-winged giant eagle and the mimic plant. The mimic plant is easier to deal with because it will be almost immobile if a fight breaks out. We are not fighting a mythical creature, but attacking a fortress. This is good news for us. After all, we really can't fight a hexagonal warrior at this moment. But if it is an all-rounder but a weak enemy, we can still give it a try."

"So the conclusion we came to before is that the four-winged giant eagle cannot be defeated, and the mimic plant may be able to seize certain opportunities to catch it off guard. However, whether it is fire attack or other methods of attack, it can only be said that the mimic plant can be used, but whether the specific effect is good or not is another matter. After all, in the Cthulhu game lobby, the mimic plant should be much stronger than the four-winged giant eagle, because the mimic plant is on the target list of the hunting mission, and the four-winged giant eagle has not yet received this honor! In short, on the surface, if we have to make a choice, more people will definitely choose the four-winged giant eagle."

Liu Xing deliberately paused at this time, and Yin En, who was the supporting actor, naturally understood what he meant. He not only nodded deliberately, but also said in a neither loud nor soft voice, "Me too."

Of course, as Liu Xing said, most of the players present believed that the four-winged giant eagle was definitely stronger than the mimic plant, or in other words, the four-winged giant eagle as the attacker would be more flexible, and it would be easy for it to escape if it couldn't win.

As for choosing mimic plants, you can only defend passively, and you can only hold on no matter what tricks the opponent uses. The most important thing is that the four-winged giant eagle may not be able to think of it or do it, but those players who support the four-winged giant eagle will really set a fire, or even add fuel to the fire. In this way, even if this fire cannot cause any substantial damage to the mimic plants, it is like a fire in the city gate, and innocent people will be affected. By then, those players who support mimic plants will not be able to withstand the fire.

So no matter how they thought about it, Liu Xing and other players felt that if they had to choose between the two, they would most likely choose the four-winged giant eagle.

"Perhaps the Cthulhu game lobby wants us to choose the four-winged giant eagle."

At this time, Xu Bin, who had been "lurking" in Tianshui Town for a long time, stood up and said, "We can actually look at the problem from another angle. That is, what impact does our appearance have on these two mythical creatures? Let's talk about the positive impact first. I think even if we players are all on the side of the same mythical creature, for the other mythical creature, it will just be a bunch of troublesome soldiers. Especially for the four-winged giant eagle, we don't have any means to hurt it, so just ignore it."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"As for the mimic plant, we little bugs still pose some threats. After all, it must focus most of its energy on dealing with the attacks of the four-winged giant eagle, and can only use some of its dispensable tentacles to deal with us. Of course, there may be the ground thorns that the fox fairy mentioned before, but this is nothing to us and it is impossible to scare us away completely. However, this is not necessarily bad news for the mimic plant, because we all know that the mimic plant has already injected most of its nutrients into that fruit."

"So the mimic plant should be hungry at this moment, and urgently needs to obtain more energy. We are the takeaway food delivered to its door. Although this takeaway food is quite lively and may hurt itself, as long as it can eat it, it does not need to consider other things... So for the mimic plant at this moment, it is like playing an action game, and we are the kind of monsters that can recover health after being hit. So do you think it will take the time to whip us a few times, so that we can experience what it means to get a hundred consecutive whips when logging in?"

Is there such an angle?

Liu Xing thought about it and felt that what Xu Bin said made sense, because for the four-winged giant eagle, players were dispensable, and it didn't matter whether they stood on its side or the opposite side. However, for the mimic plants, it would be best for these players to stand on the opposite side of them so that they could enjoy these blood packs.

While Liu Xing was still thinking about the problem, Yin En also stood up and said, "Since this is a plot instead of a mission, is there such a possibility - we think that after making a choice, we are on the same team with the mythical creature we chose! But as the leader just said, we can do not help either side in this plot, or even fight both sides together, and we will not be forced to join one side, so these two mythical creatures may not necessarily think that we are its teammates."

As soon as Yin En said this, the originally noisy Alliance Hall became silent in an instant, because the players present knew that Yin En's words were not alarmist, but it was very likely that this situation would really happen.

"If it's a mission, then I would still think that the mythical creature I chose is my teammate, but if it's just a plot, then it means that the Cthulhu game lobby does not force these two mythical creatures to become our allies, which means that we may just wishfully think that we have such a teammate... So isn't this just tricking us into giving away our lives, especially giving away our lives to the mimic plant, because it really needs us to deliver food to it, so that it can fight the four-winged giant eagle."

Liu Xing touched the back of his head and said with a tangled look on his face: "So let's just continue to watch the fun, because no matter how I look at it, I feel that the choice we make now is a dead end, and this road is called a dead end."
