Obviously, this so-called "Archangel" is a deep diver of some elder level, and should also be the final boss of this module.
"If the strength of this deep diver is on the same level as the ghoul elder, it will really be over." Liu Xing said with some worry.
After all, this is the home court of the deep divers. Liu Xing feels that if a fight really breaks out, his side will be beaten by the deep divers without the ability to fight back. . .
At this time, there was a conversation outside Liu Xing's door.
"Shizuka, what do you think is going on in our school this time? Only our class is scheduled to go on a graduation trip to the Kingdom of Space. You know, that guy Kiritsugu is jealous of our class." A young man's voice sounded. .
"You ask me how I know this, but Nobita, don't you think Mr. Honda has been a little strange these past two days?" said a nice female voice.
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. The names of the man and woman outside the door were actually Shizuka and Nobita. Liu Xing was very curious if their friends were named Xiaofu and Ji'an.
"That's right. Mr. Honda seems to have changed since he got on the cruise ship. He has become taciturn and has been standing on the bow of the ship looking at the sea." Nobita said.
At this time, Shizuka sighed and said helplessly: "Hey, do you think Mr. Fujiwara dumped Mr. Honda? I have always thought that Mr. Fujiwara and Mr. Honda are a perfect match."
Nobita chuckled and said with certainty: "That shouldn't be the problem. I saw Mr. Honda proposing to Mr. Fujiwara in the woods behind the school two days ago. Although I was far away at the time and didn't hear clearly what they said, but look It seemed that Mr. Fujiwara had agreed. Mr. Honda jumped for joy at that time. But later, Mr. Fujiwara said something to Mr. Honda, and Mr. Honda became a little melancholy. I think it must be family reasons. After all, Mr. Fujiwara My father is the director of our school, my mother is the chairman of a large seafood company in Hokkaido, and our poor Mr. Honda is just an ordinary teacher. I heard that his family background is relatively average, so I think Mr. Honda should be I'm worried about this, but I still hope that Mr. Honda can win the Beauty Return, after all, Mr. Honda is really a good teacher."
"Ah, that's it. No wonder Honda-sensei is so melancholy. The family background difference between him and Fujiwara-sensei is indeed quite big. And I heard that Fujiwara-sensei is a religious believer. He goes to the temple in the west of the city to worship every Sunday. But after all, It's also strange that that temple is not open to ordinary people." Shizuka said a little depressed.
Nobita smiled again and said: "Okay, let's stop meddling in other people's business. Let's go find Xiaofu and the others. I didn't expect that Xiaofu's family is one of the shareholders of this cruise ship. They can We got a deluxe room, which is much better than the room the school booked for us.”
The sound of words faded away.
Liu Xing frowned, knowing that the conversation between the two island students must be information arranged by the module for him, and these two island students should also be important NPCs in this module.
But more importantly, based on the conversation between Nobita and Shizuka, Liu Xing now has a bold idea, that is, the sacrifices for the sacrificial ceremony held by Baihe City and Mojin are these island students participating in the graduation trip!
First of all, the graduation trips of island high schools are usually held in China, and based on the conversation between Shizuka and Nobita, it is not difficult to infer that the previous graduation trips of their school's students were all in China, but this time they were suddenly arranged to go as a class Going on a graduation trip to the Kingdom of Space, something seems a bit wrong.
Then, there is this strange Mr. Honda and his girlfriend Mr. Fujiwara. According to Liu Xing’s guess, Mr. Fujiwara should also be a fanatical believer in deep divers, and his family should also have a certain connection with the deep divers. After all, When deep divers trade with humans, they usually use fish, so Mr. Fujiwara has a seafood company in his family.
The most important thing is that the temple that Mr. Fujiwara visits every Sunday is probably a stronghold of a church that believes in deep divers, so it is not open to the public.
After Mr. Honda proposed to Mr. Fujiwara, although Mr. Fujiwara agreed to Mr. Honda's proposal, he should also have made a request, that is, let Mr. Honda sacrifice the students in their class, Shizuka Nobita and the others. The Deep Ones she believed in.
The school where Shizuka and Nobita are located must have been completely controlled by fanatics, so they were able to arrange for a class of students to be sacrificed and boarded the Escape Cruise!
Liu Xing still remembers the real-life Sewol shipwreck. Those students were "too honest" and believed the captain's lies, so they honestly waited for rescue in the capsized Sewol ship. In the end, they all had hope in despair. Die.
In this module, if the sacrifices are only these students, only the highly respected Mr. Honda can summon these students to die!
Thinking of this, Liu Xing, who frowned, was sure that the inside story of this module was more horrifying than he imagined, because if his guess was not wrong, then this sacrificial ceremony would involve the universe. The country and the island country are two, or they are the same secret church that believes in deep divers, and the fanatical believers on the universe country have penetrated into the top management of a large shipping company, and even the top level of the country, while the fanatic believers on the island country have A school was actually opened to cultivate fresh "sacrifice"!
Although this is just a game world, Liu Xing also felt a deep chill. These churches that believe in mythical creatures are so influential that they can dedicate so many living lives to their "gods" and then take all the responsibilities. Push it to some "temporary workers" who don't know the truth.
This is just the tip of the iceberg in the world of Cthulhu.
"Damn, this world is really scary." Liu Xing looked at the sea outside the window and felt the fear for the first time in the Cthulhu Running game.
Liu Xing felt that this kind of fear was like extremely thin transparent threads. When he discovered its existence, he had been enveloped and entangled by it. When it trapped him airtight, then he The san value should be reset to zero.
Boil the frog in warm water.
Liu Xing, who was sweating coldly, sighed, patted his face, put away some unrealistic thoughts in his mind, and prepared to go out to try to find Shizuka and Nobita, or to investigate Mr. Honda.
But at this moment, Liu Xing received a text message from Sonoda Zhuri, asking where Liu Xing was now.
Obviously, Sonoda Juri should have concluded the first phase of the investigation of Shirakawa City.
Liu Xing sent his room number to Juri Sonoda, and after a while Juri Sonoda pushed the door open directly.
"Sure enough, your old friend wants to make big news." Yuri Sonoda said while handing the phone to Liu Xing.
Liu Xing nodded, took the phone and took a look and found that it was a video.
Liu Xing clicked play and found that Bai Hecheng and the crew member entered a room. After a while, Bai Hecheng and the crew member each left the room carrying a large bag, and then directly entered a nearby room with a sign indicating that no one should enter. room and closed the door.
The first video ended, and the second video started to play immediately. This time the picture appeared in a small room, but what made Liu Xing concerned was that there were dozens of black people of various sizes in this room. pockets, and from some of the pockets that had been opened, Liu Xing saw some strange things, such as beautiful feathers, green unknown liquid, black scales, etc.
Obviously, this room should be a room in White River City, and these strange things should be what is needed to perform sacrificial rituals.
"This was taken in the four-person room area where ordinary passengers of the Yuese lived. Later, the room that Shirakawa and the crew entered seemed to be the crew's lounge, but the door required the crew's key to open, so there was nothing I could do. Went in, luckily there was a bright future, Baihe City and the others probably planned to come back in a while, so they didn’t close the door, so I quickly went in and took a video." Juri Sonoda said with a smile.
Liu Xing nodded and said, "Thank you very much, Zhu Li. If nothing else, these things should be used for sacrificial ceremonies. And looking at the quantity, Baihe City and the others really want to make a big news." ah."
"Them?" Zhuli Sonoda was keenly aware of the change in Liu Xing's words.
Liu Xing nodded and told Sonoda Zhuli about Mo Jin and the stories he found on the Internet.
Sonoda Zhuri frowned and said: "As for the president of Space Kingdom, if I remember correctly, he was assassinated directly by a mysterious person in the car shortly after the capsizing of the troop transport ship. But the strange thing is that the president's The driver went to buy cigarettes for the president and did not see the murderer. Therefore, the mysterious person who assassinated the president has not been caught yet, and the current president of the Universe State is indeed that president’s daughter.”
"As for the cults in the Universe Kingdom, I have to say that there are many. I am sure that there are more than ten cults that exist. Of course, there are also many cults in the island nation, but now these cults have been renamed into the So-and-So Society, So-and-So Society Social groups such as research associations should appear openly and openly."
As expected of a professional, it seems that Sonoda Juri has also done some research on Space Kingdom.
"That's it. By the way, Zhu Li, I just heard a conversation between two high school students outside a door, and found that their class is likely to be the sacrifice in this sacrificial ceremony." Liu Xing nodded and said what he just heard He told Sonoda Zhuri the content of the conversation and his guess.
Zhuri Sonoda frowned and said to Liu Xing: "Logically speaking, the graduation trip of high school students should be for the entire grade to go to the same area, and except for some unique private aristocratic high schools, basically other schools will choose After all, domestic graduation travel is cost-effective and more convenient. However, this class is arranged separately by the school, which is obviously abnormal... By the way, Liu Xing, can you ask Yin En to check who this class is from? That school?"
Liu Xing nodded and took out his cell phone to contact Yin En.
Because Gao Liumingyin had obtained a passenger list of the Yuese cruise ship when he was investigating Mo Jin's identity, Yin En quickly replied to Liu Xing with a text message.
"It's Kyoto Moritomo Academy." Liu Xing said.
After hearing Liu Xing's answer, Sonoda Zhuri sighed helplessly and said seriously: "It seems that Liu Xing, your idea is probably right, because Moritomo Academy is a very famous private high school in Kyoto. , but the high reputation of this college is entirely because of the various accidents that often occur in this college."
"According to an incomplete investigation, there have been eight major accidents in the sixty years since Moritomo Academy was founded, including a school bus accident that killed 23 students; five armed fugitives who broke into a school building Moritomo Academy in Sono Matsuri killed sixteen students; the most recent incident was eight years ago, also during a graduation trip, when a fire broke out in the hotel where students stayed, killing more than forty students."
"Although accidents occur frequently, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of students, most of these accidents occurred outside the school and have little to do with Moritomo Academy itself. They are all force majeure. In addition, there are many consortiums behind Moritomo Academy. , so Moritomo Academy has not received any punishment, and Moritomo Academy has strong teachers, complete teaching equipment, and extremely low tuition fees, so even though Moritomo Academy is nicknamed the High School of Death in the Kyoto area, it has never been short of students."
Liu Xing frowned. In the world of Cthulhu Team Games, there are no so-called accidents. Now it is certain that Moritomo Academy is the "Sacrifice Academy" controlled by some fanatical believers!
"Well, as a reporter, I will contact the students of Moritomo Academy to see if I can get some information from them." Juri Sonoda stood up and said seriously.
Liu Xing nodded, knowing that Juri Sonoda, as an internet celebrity reporter, would definitely be able to get more information by interviewing those high school students.
Sonoda Zhuri, who was in a hurry, left the room in a hurry and went directly to find the students of Moritomo Academy.
Liu Xing called Yin En and told Yin En the current situation.
"I understand. I'm going to find Mr. Honda. If nothing else happens, Mr. Honda should be considered a good person. I should be able to convince him to change his ways. Of course, if that doesn't work, I will We can only resort to force." Yin En said with a smile.
In special circumstances, if persuasion is unsuccessful, try persuasion again (physics)!
