Chapter 798: Classic Template
The raspberry-flavored liquid in Liu Xing's mouth refers to the classic poison concocted by the snake man, the dominant serum.
The Domination Serum appears to be a colorless slurry, but it tastes faintly raspberry, so players in the Cthulhu Run lobby will try not to drink any liquids of unknown origin when they encounter a mod with a snake man, so as not to be affected by the Domination Serum.
As the name suggests, the effect of the dominant serum is to make the creature that drinks it obey the snake man, but only the creature will be fully affected when it drinks at least ten drops of the serum, but as long as it is affected by the dominant serum, then the creature will most likely become a slave to the snake man, because the creature that drinks the dominant serum can only be exempted from the snake man's special control if it passes a difficult constitution judgment.
As for how the snake people control the creatures that drink the control serum, it still depends on a certain smell unique to them or a certain tone of speech unique to the snake people, so Liu Qindong just now will be remotely controlled by the snake man.
But then again, the Dominating Serum is not as buggy as imagined, and it also has a lot of shortcomings, such as the fact that although a creature controlled by the Dominating Serum is willing to do anything for the snake man, if this matter will endanger his own life or the life of his loved ones, then the creature may also temporarily get rid of the control of the Dominating Serum.
And the effect of the innervator is not always there, but the innervator is metabolized by the human body at a slower rate, so if the human does not ingest more innervator during the period of being affected by the innervator, then it will be freed from the influence of the serum after 1d10+10 days.
Liu Xing deduced from one point that Liu Qindong should have been controlled by the snake people with the Domination Serum recently, because Liu Xing could be sure that these heretic snake people who were exiled by the same kind did not have much Domination Serum in their hands, after all, a poison with a strong effect like this was definitely not a mass-produced type, so Liu Qindong should have only taken the Domination Serum once.
Even Liu Xing suspected that those snake people in Eagle Beak Mountain had just given Liu Qindong a deteriorated version of the Domination Serum, because if Liu Qindong had taken the genuine Domination Serum, then Liu Qindong at this time should have refuted with a normal face, after all, those snake people should have given Liu Qindong an order not to expose the existence of them and the Domination Serum, but the current Liu Qindong is not like that.
Liu Xing once saw some posts about snake people in the forum of the Cthulhu Run game lobby, and these posts all have a common point of view, that is, in the mods under the Cthulhu area, the snake people encountered by players are basically degenerate snake people, and the poisons in the hands of these degenerate snake people are basically some fake and shoddy products, although these poisons can still have a certain effect, but there will be some flaws more or less... Of course, if some players are "lucky" enough to encounter atavistic snakemen, then the poison in the hands of these atavistic snakemen will be more effective.
As for why "Liu Xing" knows so much news about the Domination Serum, it still has to thank the Isis Turner, because Turner once possessed a snake man, and it just so happens that this snake man has made various versions of the Domination Serum, so "Liu Xing" still knows a lot about the Domination Serum.
After all, these 40 points of Cthulhu Mythos knowledge are no joke.
However, it is a pity that Liu Xing thinks that this should be the Cthulhu Run game hall deliberately erased some of "himself" memories, so Liu Xing can't remember how to make the Domination Serum now, and whether there is a way to remove the effect of the Domination Serum in advance.
At this time, Liu Qindong sighed, nodded and said, "That's right, just like Liu Xing, you said, after I drank a glass of raspberry-flavored water, I was controlled by those damn snake people." ”
Hearing Liu Qindong say this, Liu Xing knew that the dominating serum used by those snake people in Eagle's Beak Mountain was most likely the raw material bought from Pinxi, otherwise Liu Qindong would not be able to say such a thing.
But this is good news for Liu Xing.
Liu Xing looked at the surrounding situation, took Liu Qindong to a corner with few people and said: "Liu Qindong, if you want me to help you, you can tell me everything you have encountered in the past few days, so that I can determine how to help you get rid of the control of those snake people, you must know that when you lose your use value, those snake people will not easily kill you, but will use you to do all kinds of poison experiments, and you will be worse than dead at that time." ”
Originally, Liu Xing also wanted to find the KP order for a persuasion judgment, but the KP order directly told Liu Xing that because Liu Qindong's favorability towards "Liu Xing" had reached a level of trust, and the dominant serum that affected Liu Qindong belonged to the low-profile version, so Liu Xing did not need to make a persuasion judgment to make Liu Qindong tell the truth.
As a result, Liu Qindong told his story in the past few days.
Liu Qindong chose to obey the deployment when he was in college, although he entered a certain university in Shudi, but he was assigned to the water supply and drainage major - a major known as the pit daddy major in Liu Qindong's mouth, because Liu Qindong was unemployed on the spot after graduating from college, after all, college students majoring in water supply and drainage are very worthless, so some of the counterpart jobs that Liu Qindong can find are to go to the reservoir on the outskirts of the city to stay, or go to the water company to be responsible for dredging sewers, and the monthly salary for the first few years is about 3,000...
Liu Qindong, who couldn't find a job, could only choose to take the civil service exam, but he didn't succeed in the exam for two years, so Liu Qindong could only choose to become a real estate agent.
As a result, on the first day of work, Liu Qindong met a beautiful female guest who wanted to rent a house.
In order to close his first order, and in order to leave a good impression on this beautiful guest, Liu Qindong spent a lot of effort to find a very cost-effective house for this beautiful guest, so this beautiful guest and Liu Qindong became good friends after coming and going, and then naturally became boyfriend and girlfriend.
Liu Qindong's girlfriend's name is Yang Xuanzhu, an interior designer who has just graduated from university, and her household registration is in Tailai Village.
A week ago, Yang Xuanzhu told Liu Qindong that she was going to take Liu Qindong home to meet her parents, because it would be her grandfather's seventieth birthday in two days, so it was a good time to meet her parents, and Liu Qindong naturally agreed.
Then Liu Qindong followed Yang Xuanzhu to Tailai Village.
Because Yang Xuanzhu's grandfather is also somewhat famous in Tailai Village, everyone in Tailai Village came to celebrate Yang Xuanzhu's grandfather's birthday that day, and Liu Qindong, as the future aunt of the Yang family, was naturally toasted by various kinds, so Liu Qindong quickly got drunk.
When Liu Qindong woke up, he found that he was lying in a room, and Yang Xuanzhu was still talking to "people" outside the door.
The voice of this "person" was a little strange, it sounded very sharp and hoarse, which made Liu Qindong, who was already drunk, feel an unbearable headache, and Liu Qindong was a little thirsty, so Liu Qindong wanted to get up and go to Yang Xuanzhu to ask for a glass of water.
As a result, when Liu Qindong walked to the door, he heard Yang Xuanzhu say to that "person" how to deal with Liu Qindong, an outsider, now.
This made Liu Qindong sober up in an instant, and at the same time he was a little incredulous, he didn't expect Yang Xuanzhu, who is usually with him, to say such a thing.
And at this point, the "man" only said one sentence, "Everything is going according to the predetermined plan." ”
Then the "person" left, but Liu Qindong found that the footsteps of the "person" were very strange, just constantly rubbing sound... Later, Liu Qindong learned that it was a snake man.
After the snake man left, Liu Qindong immediately cautiously returned to bed and pretended to be asleep, but Yang Xuanzhu entered the room and woke up Liu Qindong after a while, saying that he wanted Liu Qindong to go to officially meet her family.
At this time, Yang Xuanzhu was no different from before, so Liu Qindong began to wonder if he was dreaming just now, or had auditory hallucinations, after all, he had been drunk just now.
Liu Qindong, who was puzzled in his heart, still followed Yang Xuanzhu to the living room, met Yang Xuanzhu's immediate family, and gave them tea according to Yang Xuanzhu's arrangement.
After the tea, Yang Xuanzhu's grandfather poured Liu Qindong a glass of water, saying that as long as Liu Qindong drank it, he would be a family, so Liu Qindong was naturally bored.
This glass of water naturally contains the controlling serum.
Just when Liu Qindong was still wondering why this glass of water was raspberry-flavored, a snake man swaggered into the living room, and Yang Xuanzhu's family respectfully saluted the snake man.
At this time, although Liu Qindong was so frightened by the snake man that he wanted to turn around and leave, Liu Qindong suddenly found that he couldn't control his body!
Then the snake man proudly told Liu Qindong that now that Liu Qindong has been controlled by it, if Liu Qindong doesn't want to die, he will honestly listen to its orders.
Then the snake man told Liu Qindong that they snake people were the ancient rulers of the earth, and the once powerful dinosaur clan was also their slaves, but unfortunately in a cataclysm, the snake man clan was hit hard, which allowed human beings to develop and grow.
However, the snake people have not given up their ambitions for the earth, so the snake people have been lurking in human society over the years, and have developed many human followers, and Yang Xuanzhu's family is the followers of this snake people.
As for why this snake man wants to control Liu Qindong, it is because this snake man needs Liu Qindong to become its servant and attract more humans to send it to death!
According to the snake man, he and his fellow citizens have been staying in the Eagle Beak Mountain for hundreds of years, waiting for a chance to make a comeback, but two days ago, a star color that was still in an embryonic state fell outside the village of Tailai Village, which gave the snake man the hope of ruling the earth again, because the mature star color is invincible!
However, because Star Lottery needs a lot of nutrients to enter the maturity stage, and Star Lottery is too simple and crude in absorbing nutrients on its own, it will absorb the life force of all living things in 20,000 square meters (the size of two standard football fields), and from then on, this area will not grow a single grass, and at the same time will produce various anomalies, so this will definitely attract the attention of others.
Therefore, in order to implement their plan smoothly, these snake people came up with a "good idea", that is, to transform this star color, so that this star color only absorbs the life force of humans, so this requires a large number of humans to "contribute" their own life force to the star color.
Therefore, these snake people plan to give all the left-behind population of Tailai Village to a pot first, so that they can make Tailai Village a "ghost village" to attract those tourist anchors who like to die, and then Liu Qindong, a ghost, will attract those tourist anchors to the trap prepared by the snake people.
Yesterday, the anchor team entered the three-story building because of Liu Qindong's deliberate attraction, and was stunned by the snake man Liu Xing had just seen with a colorless and odorless poison.
As for why Liu Qindong can say so much to Liu Xing now, it is because Liu Qindong found that he would only be controlled by the snake man when he entered Tailai Village, but Liu Qindong would enter Tailai Village uncontrollably before eight o'clock in the evening every day, and he would not be able to leave Tailai Village until the snake man agreed.
However, it may be that the snake man also knew that his domination serum belonged to the low-level version and could not really control Liu Qindong, so the snake man did not let Liu Qindong see how it took those people away from Tailai Village, so Liu Qindong did not know where the snake man's base entrance to Eagle's Beak Mountain was.
After listening to Liu Qindong's narration, Liu Xing found that Liu Qindong's encounter can be said to be a classic template for the single-player mod in the Cthulhu Run game - the investigator met the other half of his life→ investigator followed his husband/wife back to his hometown to meet his family→ investigator and his future in-laws/mother-in-law and mother-in-law had a good conversation→ investigator found that something was wrong→ it turned out that his lover's family was a mythical creature/fanatical believer→ investigator began to run away/dog leash/of course to join them.
It's a pity that Liu Qindong is not a player in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, but just an NPC, so he has no chance to struggle at all, so he becomes a ghost who works for the snake people.
Liu Xing sighed and said, "Liu Qindong, don't worry, I will definitely help you get rid of the snake man's control, but you have to go to the detention center for a while in the past two days." ”
Liu Qindong nodded and said reluctantly: "Although I was forced to fight for the tiger, I did kill many people, so I was mentally prepared." ”
Liu Xing brought Liu Qindong to Director Li's side, and concisely repeated what Liu Qindong had just said.
"I see, no wonder the people of a village will suddenly disappear at the same time, it turns out that there are ghosts in this village, it seems that those villagers should have been captured by the snake people at the banquet of the Yang family." Sun Meng said with a sigh on his face.
