"Oh, it seems that Liu Xing, you know something." KP Broken Bridge sighed and said, "No wonder Turner chose you in the first place. ”

As soon as Liu Xing wanted to say something, he saw Alice looking at him a little confused, and her mouth couldn't speak.

It seems that even Alice, who has been a little prepared, is a little unacceptable after learning the truth about this world.

Of course, there is actually Liu Xing's pot here, because what Liu Xing said can be described by the words "alarmist" from a certain point of view...

After all, Alice is indeed an NPC from the perspective of the Cthulhu Run game lobby, but in Liu Xing's opinion, Alice is a living human, or Alice is a living human in the first place.

So Liu Xing put his hands on Alice's shoulders, looked directly at Alice and said, "Alice, what I said just now was not rigorous enough, you are not the kind of NPC you imagined, because the game we are in now is a little different; This game is called the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, yes, Cthulhu here refers to the old ruler who sleeps at the bottom of the sea, but it is not the creator of this game, because it is not level enough, so I, or Zhang Jingxu and I and others think that the Cthulhu Run Game Hall should be created by the legendary outer god - Nyaratotip, because in the Cthulhu Mythos, Nyaratotip can be said to be one of the top gods in this universe. ”

"Back to the topic, the world we are in now, that is, Alice, your world should have been very normal, but one day before it was assimilated by the Cthulhu Run game hall, so this world became a game world, and all the humans and mythical creatures in this world, including Alice, you were also brainwashed by the Cthulhu Run game hall to become an NPC in the game, but a world like Alice and you is not only one in the Cthulhu Run game hall, The world I know alone is in the triple digits; Of course, Zhang Jingxu and I are indeed called players in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, but our situation is not much better than yours. ”

"To put it simply, we players have to enter the Cthulhu Run game lobby every once in a while to participate in the game, and each game will stipulate a range and main quest, if we don't complete the main quest, or leave the designated range without permission, or die in the mod, we will all die in our world, but we can spend the rewards after clearing the game to buy a chance to resurrect, or simply create a new game character; But to put it this way, because the difficulty of the Cthulhu Run game hall is too high, although the mortality rate of the Cthulhu Run game hall is still too high, so like-minded players will form a team to play together, which is why Zhang Jingxu and I have such a good relationship. ”

"But the most important thing is that we have discovered that the Cthulhu Run game hall has begun to erode the world we are in, and now there are some unbelievable situations in our world, such as the fact that some years have passed in the past, but they have become unrecognizable overnight, for example, in our world, the name of the Yue Shi incident should be the Shi Yue incident, and the ship set off from the universe country, and the mastermind behind the tragedy is a secret church of the universe country, As a result, after Yin En and I passed the Yue Shi module, the Shi Yue in our world became the Yue Shi No. ... I'm sure Alice should know what I mean, although I'm a player now, it may not be long before I'll be like you. ”

After listening to Liu Xing's story, Alice's expression became even more confused, but Liu Xing knew that Alice at this time just needed a little time to digest the news she had told her.

Liu Xing believes that Alice can become his most powerful helper after knowing the truth of this world, because Alice is also a "local" no matter how she says it, and after returning to the real world in the future, she can also get rid of Alice's actions to help guide "Liu Xing" and "Watanabe Meteor".

While Alice was still thinking about life, Liu Xing couldn't help but ask KP Broken Bridge, "KP, what will become of Alice now after learning the truth about this world, she won't be wanted as a bug in the Cthulhu Run game hall like Turner." ”

KP Broken Bridge didn't sell it, and replied directly: "Of course not, because Alice is still an NPC after all, it's just an NPC that has been released from some of the shackles and knows more than other NPCs, not like Turner's NPC who forcibly seized the player's character card, so Liu Xing, you don't need to worry about Alice being punished by the Cthulhu Run game lobby... However, the Cthulhu Run game lobby will not sit idly by, and Alice will not be protected by NPCs in the future. ”

"NPC protection?" Liu Xing asked subconsciously.

KP Broken Bridge smiled bitterly: "Just like Liu Xing, you just said, this parallel world was actually no different from the world you were in Liu Xing before, and Alice was no different from Liu Xing, but because the players in this parallel world finally failed, this parallel world became what it is now, but this parallel world is protected by the game lobby of the Cthulhu Run Group... To put it simply, the entire parallel world of NPCs has actually entered a reincarnation, and they can be reincarnated. ”

"To put it simply, the old rulers in this parallel world are definitely not the ontology, after all, there are so many parallel worlds in the Cthulhu Run game hall, and the old rulers are not enough, so these old rulers are all imaginary, and their priority is lower than that of NPCs in the eyes of our KP; But as the game progresses, the Old Rulers will step up and destroy the world, and in reality they will just go through a cutscene, and it will be the Cthulhu Run lobby that will really make all of your players' quest cards finished. ”

"So, when the old ruler of a parallel world chooses to destroy the world, if you players can't stop it, then all of you players will be clear out of this parallel world, but the NPCs will not actually be affected much, they should be brainwashed by the Cthulhu Run game lobby, and then redeployed in this parallel world, but some details of this parallel world will also change a little, which is the protection of NPCs in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, You can understand it as immortality. ”

Liu Xing frowned, and said, "KP, do you mean that Alice will only have this one life in the future?" ”

"That's right, Alice will be like you players in the future, if she dies in this parallel world, she will not be reincarnated, but will die completely; If you want to use an analogy, it is that Alice has changed from an employee in the Cthulhu Run game hall to a temporary worker, although she will be more free-moving, but if something happens, the Cthulhu Run game hall will fire her without hesitation. KP Broken Bridge said seriously.

Hearing this, Liu Xing's eyes looking at Alice became more complicated, because Liu Xing didn't know whether it was right or wrong for him to tell Alice the truth about this world.

Sometimes, the ignorant are the happiest.

But then again, listening to KP Broken Bridge today, Liu Xing has a deeper understanding of the situation in the game hall of the Cthulhu Running Group, although these understandings still can't bring any substantial benefits to Liu Xing.

Because whether it is the old ruler who directly kills the world, or the Cthulhu Running Group game hall kills the world, the final result is still those two words - annihilation.

Of course, the only good news now is that the Cthulhu Run game hall is packed with food, and if your world is absorbed by the Cthulhu Run game hall in the future, you can still live well, and you will still be immortal... As long as there are no new players from other worlds around.

"Ahem, I know Liu Xing, you should be thinking about yourself now that you can be immortal in the future, right? But I have to remind Liu Xing here, if your world is completely assimilated by the Cthulhu Run game lobby, then you will be directly wiped out as a player, instead of becoming an NPC, because you players are unstable, I believe Liu Xing, you should understand what I mean. KP Broken Bridge said with a smile.

Liu Xing was stunned for a moment, and then understood the meaning of KP's broken bridge.

In fact, this is also very understandable, judging from the situation of Turner and Alice, the concentration of "Meng Po Soup" in the game hall of the Cthulhu Run Group is not high enough to make NPCs completely forget their past, so some NPCs may still have some doubts about the parallel world they are in when they get certain information or contact with players, and finally recall or learn the truth of all this in different ways.

But these NPCs that have awakened their memories are just innocuous little bugs in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, and it's easy to clean them up, and you don't need to worry too much about how much trouble these NPCs will cause you; However, if such NPCs were players before, they would not be a hassle for the Cthulhu Run lobby.

Suffice it to say, these former NPCs are a group of old men who can introduce new players to the Cthulhu Run lobby, so that the new batch of players can skip a lot of exploration, so that the mortality rate of these players will plummet, and then this parallel world will be equivalent to another batch of experienced and less restrictive players, because they will not be bound by mods and do not need to complete any tasks.

Therefore, Liu Xing felt that if he were the Cthulhu Run group game hall, he would also wipe out all these players, so as not to cause trouble to his future self.

But in this way, a guess suddenly appeared in Liu Xing's heart - Turner is a player!

The probability is more than 80%!

The main reason why Liu Xing thinks this way is because Turner acts too much like a player, or that he does something that only a player does.

If Turnar was just an ordinary Is, then after awakening his previous memories, he would only think that he might have lost his memories of this time due to the influence of some old ruler or an outer god, and lived on Earth pretending to be a human for a while, occasionally encountering some dishonest children.

But will Turner know that the player exists, that the world has become a game world?

Probably not, because this is not in Turner's previous memory, after all, from what Liu Xing knows, when the Cthulhu Run game lobby assimilates a world, in addition to the players in this world, ordinary people can be said to have become NPCs unconsciously... It is also possible that in the final moments, ordinary people can see an overwhelming number of mythical creatures, as well as the vision of some old ruler descending on Earth.

But they couldn't have known that one of their fellow citizens had known that this was happening and had tried to prevent it.

So judging from Turner's performance, Liu Xing felt that Turner was a player nine times out of ten, so he would choose himself as a player to take over.

That's where it gets interesting.

Just as Liu Xing closed his eyes and pondered, Alice suddenly said, "Let's get out of the car and go to eat." ”

Liu Xing opened his eyes and looked at Alice with a smile on her face, as if nothing had happened.

"Let's go, I'm hungry."

Walking into the living room, Li Hanxing and Sun Huiwen were playing games, but there were already a few cold dishes on the table.

"Oh, you're back, I'm going to bring the hot food."

After Sun Huiwen saw Liu Xing and Alice coming in, he got up and said.

As for Li Hanxing, he looked at Liu Xing and Alice with thief eyebrows, and it seemed that he should have misunderstood something.

However, Liu Xing didn't know how to explain it to Li Hanxing, so he could only ignore Li Hanxing's concerned (curious) eyes, what should be eaten, what should be drunk... As for Alice's performance, it is still very normal, and normal Liu Xing doesn't know what to say.

After dinner, Li Hanxing and Sun Huiwen went directly back to the room to rest, leaving only Liu Xing and Alice to "watch" TV in the living room.

Of course, although Liu Xing's eyes have been staring at the TV, his attention is still on Alice beside him.

I don't know how long it took for Alice to speak: "Liu Xing, I've already thought about it." ”

"Huh?"

"If you're trying to save your world, then let me join you." Alice said seriously: "After all, in most games, our NPCs exist to help you players clear the game!" ”
