Zhang Jingxu paused, as if he remembered something, and quickly got up and went to the counter to pick up the black cat demon's collar. After gesturing with the iron plate in his hand, he said, "Look, does this iron plate match the black cat demon's collar?" Matching the cat demon’s collar.”
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, stood up and walked to Zhang Jingxu to take a look. He found that the iron plate did match the black cat demon's collar, and there was a small hole in the center of the black cat demon's collar, and the top of the iron plate There is also a similar small hole.
At this time, Liu Xing suddenly remembered that the iron plate's introduction information mentioned that this iron plate could be combined with other props.
In other words, this iron sign should actually be the black cat demon's cat sign.
Judging from the effect of this cat card, Liu Xing finally understood why the black cat demon was able to kill people in the entire town quietly, but after the unblocking, those who wanted to attack Panlong Town could not It became a little difficult.
At this time, Wan Zhongshan on the side said: "In that case, let's just use a thread or wire to combine this collar with the iron plate. Maybe this will stimulate some special effects?"
Wan Zhongshan's proposal received support from everyone. After all, it stands to reason that the information on props should not be deceptive, because the information on props should be fair and open, unlike some NPCs who only speak half of their words.
Therefore, Liu Xing and others asked for a piece of iron wire from Hu Cang, because Liu Xing and others still felt that the iron plate and the collar were magic props anyway. How could a mere ordinary wire connect the collar and the collar? What about iron cards?
So, Zhang Jingxu confidently connected the iron plate and the collar with iron wire, and then. . . The wire broke in an instant. . .
"Well, it seems that this iron plate and collar contain powerful energy, and ordinary iron wire cannot connect them, so we may need to find better materials to connect them." Zhang Jingxu frowned and said .
Liu Xing nodded, sighed and said, "Then when we go to Hu Li tomorrow, let's ask her if she has any tools that can connect the iron plate with the collar."
At this time, Hu Cang also prepared lunch, so Liu Xing and others sat back at the table and started eating.
After lunch, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. After all, everyone had already made a plan of action at this point in time, and Hu Cang had already prepared the fishing nets that needed to be used tomorrow, so Liu Xing and his party did not have anything to do this afternoon. Whatever is easy to do can only be adjusted in their respective rooms.
When he first got the black cat demon's collar, Liu Xing planned to ask Hu Cang to go into the bamboo forest with a machete and go to the deep Hualai Temple to look for the black cat demon. However, after confirming the relationship between the iron plate and the collar, , Liu Xing decided to wait until these two props are combined together before looking for the black cat demon.
After all, under normal circumstances, the combination of props can be one plus one greater than two.
Therefore, at this time Liu Xing could only lie in bed and start thinking wildly.
Of course, Liu Xing is still very confused about the current position of Luliu and Hu Li. Are they on the same side as him and his group, or are they just trying to take advantage of him and his group?
At this moment, Liu Xing's ears suddenly heard the muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, which scared Liu Xing to turn over and jump out of bed.
Liu Xing looked toward the place where the sound came from and found that it was Ishikawa Ling who had returned from Hyboril.
But at this time, Ishikawa Ling looked very bad.
Because at this time, Ishikawa Ling's face was ashen, he was curled up in pain, and he couldn't even make a sound. The most important thing was that the left half of Ishikawa Ling's face was covered with a layer of green scales, which looked like It's snake scales.
Liu Xing didn't have time to think carefully at this time, and hurriedly went out and called Zhang Jingxu and others over. After all, the character card "Watanabe Ryusei" didn't have any medical skills, and he didn't carry any medical props, so facing Ishikawa Rei, In this situation, Liu Xing could only seek help from Zhang Jingxu and others.
Soon, Zhang Jingxu and others followed Liu Xing back to the room. At this time, Ishikawa Ling was still in bad condition.
"Everyone, please help me lift Ishikawa Ling to the bed first." Zhang Jingxu said while holding Ishikawa Ling's head.
At this time, half of Ishikawa Ling's head was completely covered by snake scales, so now Ishikawa Ling inevitably looks a little funny, and the snake scales were already a bit smooth, so Zhang Jingxu did not lift his head steadily at the beginning, allowing Ishikawa Ling's head to be smashed On the ground.
The house leaked and it rained all night, and Ishikawa Ling couldn't help but groan in pain.
Zhang Jingxu smiled sheepishly and said: "The hands are slippery, but this is also a good thing. Since Ishikawa Ling can still groan in pain, it means that Ishikawa Ling is still conscious."
Then, Liu Xing and others carried Zhang Jingxu to the bed. At this time, in Liu Xing's view, Ishikawa Ling had become half a snake man, because in addition to half of Ishikawa Ling's head, Ishikawa Ling's left hand had also been It was covered with a layer of snake scales, and its nails became slender and sharp.
Liu Xing frowned and had roughly guessed what happened to Ishikawa Ling when he went to Hybrier this time.
According to the setting in the Cthulhu Mythos, the magician Serac became obsessed with studying snake magic in the later period. In the end, due to an error in a certain experiment on snake magic, the magician Serac was transformed into a snake. He was accidentally discovered by Ebon, who did not know the truth. Without hesitation, Ebon poured a bottle of strong sulfuric acid on his master's head, thus killing Serak.
So judging from Ishikawa Ling's current situation, Liu Xing knew that Ishikawa Ling had either become a test subject for Serac's study of snake magic, or he was accidentally hit by Serac when he was using snake magic. People were soaked to death by magic, that's why they became like this.
Liu Xing is now more inclined to the latter. After all, if Ishikawa Ling becomes Serac's experimental subject for studying magic, then Ishikawa Ling should not be able to escape from Serac, so Liu Xing guesses that Ishikawa Ling should be fighting to the death. After killing Serak, he was sent back here.
At this time, Zhang Jingxu said with a serious face: "The current situation is not good. Ishikawa Ling's current body has been eroded by a strange magic, which is transforming Ishikawa Ling into a mythical creature-the snake man."
Liu Xing frowned and said quickly: "Mr. Zhang Jingxu, do you have any way to remove the snake magic from Ishikawa Ling? Looking at Ishikawa Ling's appearance, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for long."
Zhang Jingxu nodded and said with some tangle: "There is a way, but I am not sure whether that method will be effective, because the snake people are a very weird race. Our Chinese Taoism does not know much about the snake people. It can only be said that we know very little.”
In the Cthulhu Mythology, most of the mythical creatures are alien creatures or alien life forms, and the Snake Man is an alien creature.
The snake people worship Zatgua and other ancient rulers who live underground. The social form of the snake people is somewhat similar to humans, so they have established a large number of snake kingdoms, and these snake kingdoms are basically in Based on witchcraft and alchemy.
But there is a kingdom of Youss that originated deep underground, which has raised the scientific level of the snake people to a whole new level. Currently, in the settings of most Cthulhu running games, the technology mastered by these snake people is at least as good as that of two people. Humans of the late tenth century were just as advanced and, in biological sciences, superior to them.
Therefore, most of the snakemen who appear in the Cthulhu Run game are from the Kingdom of Yuhiss.
Because the snake people of the Youssi Kingdom have made major achievements in biological science, the snake people of the Youss Kingdom can control life forms according to their wishes. What is certain at present is that the demon ghosts and the Womie tribe are races created by them. Just like the ancient ones created the Shoggoths, these two races were cultivated by the snake people to drive them to complete certain specific tasks.
However, the Snake People have also developed a variety of serums, including a Dominator Serum. Creatures injected with the serum will be completely controlled by the Snake People. Therefore, the Snake People do not have a race created by themselves like the Ancients. resisted.
In addition to the Dominator serum, other serums of the Snake people also have their own functions, especially in terms of cloning and accelerated growth, which are the specialty of the Snake people. The most important thing is that the serum created by the Snake people is extremely versatile. Both humans and other mythical creatures will be affected by the serum of the snake people.
In addition to serum, the snake people, as venomous snakes, are naturally keen on producing a variety of poisons and toxins. Some of them can kill people with just one drop, while others can only cause the victim to fall asleep for a period of time. ; Some will take effect quickly, making people poisonous in a second, while others will take a century to fully take effect.
Therefore, in terms of knowledge about poisons, the snake people have reached a height that no other race can match.
However, in the relevant setting, the Kingdom of Yuhisi was destroyed more than a million years ago. The Kingdom of Yuhisi was destroyed, and even the old ruler Ige of the entire snake-people clan was almost destroyed. However, Ige was still There is a name - snake god.
The image of Ig, the Old One, is an enlarged version of the snake-man, but with a pair of bat wings. He is a relatively minor Old One in the Cthulhu mythology. It is widely circulated in the Americas and is regarded as The ancestor god of snakes is called the "Father of Snakes" and "Bad Medicine" by the aborigines, and in the setting of the Cthulhu Mythos, Ignatius is the prototype of Quetzalcoatl.
Therefore, the snake people were originally worshipers of the old ruler Yig, but for some unknown reason, the snake people gave up their belief in Yig and turned to worship Zatgua. However, from the relationship between Yig and Judging from the image of Zategua, we know that Ige and Zategua are not able to deal with each other, so Ige took revenge on the snake people, almost annihilating the snake people, and forced the remaining snake people to live in other places. (Regarding the plot of the Snake Man, many people think it is a metaphor for the Israelis. Please refer to Baidu for details).
Some of the snake people who lived in foreign lands came to Hybrier and established a new country, preserving many secrets about the Kingdom of Yuhis. However, the technology of the snake people has almost completely declined.
However, although the Snake people are a bit miserable, in the Cthulhu running game, the Snake people are very hated by the players. It can also be said that they are a mythical creature that they are afraid of encountering, because the various serums of the Snake people It's really hard to guard against Venom, and as soon as you hit it, you're basically ready to tear up the card.
And now Ishikawa Ling, it seems that half of his body has been buried in the ground. . .
Although according to the settings of this module, even if Ishikawa Ling dies here, Ishikawa Ling should be able to resurrect at the next time point, but Liu Xing does not intend to give up on Ishikawa Ling's treatment yet. After all, Ishikawa Ling is his staunch ally. So no matter whether Ling Ishikawa can be saved or not, this treatment process still needs to be done.
So Liu Xing nodded and said seriously: "As long as there is a way, you can go ahead, Zhang Jingxu. If there is anything you need me to do, Zhang Jingxu, just tell me."
Wan Zhongshan and Li Dian on the side nodded, indicating that they also agreed with Liu Xing's statement.
Seeing this, Zhang Jingxu didn't say anything, took out a small bottle from his pocket and poured out a small black pill.
"This pill was given to me by my master before. The effect is a bit weird. There is a certain chance that the person who takes the pill can return to the physical state of an hour ago. Of course, this chance may be a bit low, only about 20%. And I'm not sure what the state of Ishikawa Ling's body was an hour ago." Zhang Jingxu said solemnly.
Liu Xing frowned. He didn't expect that the pill in Zhang Jingxu's hand had such a strange effect. It could actually restore the physical condition of the person who took the medicine to an hour ago.
But now, Ishikawa Ling's situation can no longer be delayed, so he can only treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor.
"No matter, Zhang Jingxu, just feed the medicine to Ishikawa Ling directly." Liu Xing said through gritted teeth.
As a result, Zhang Jingxu stuffed the pill into Ishikawa Ling's mouth without hesitation.
Then, there was a sound of dice hitting the ground.
Ishikawa Ling, 13/20, successful.
When Liu Xing heard that Ling Ishikawa successfully passed the judgment, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before Liu Xing could spit out this breath, he discovered that the snake scales on Ishikawa Ling's body had not changed in any way, which made Liu Xing nervous again.
Zhang Jingxu shook his head helplessly and said: "It seems that Ling Ishikawa was like this an hour ago. There is no other way. I hope Ling Ishikawa can be resurrected at the next time."
Just when Liu Xing and others were preparing to collect Ishikawa Ling's body, Ishikawa Ling suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
PS: Two purple submarines appeared in the Blue Submarine after 80 rounds, and the mentality exploded.
I will take a rest tomorrow as usual and relax my mind. . .
