  Chapter 490 The Haze of Innsmouth

   Innsmouth.

   This is a small town that is not recorded on the map, and it is full of all kinds of bad legends and stories.

  However, for Duanmu Huai, he only felt that this place...was quite pitiful.

  Well, it's pathetic.

   As we all know, this is a linked mission world, and when this mission was first launched in the game, a large number of players naturally flooded into it. When they figured out the rules of the mission world and successfully started having fun, a group of fun players appeared as a matter of course.

   There are not a few players in this group, and they soon started a mighty holy land tour in the whole world.

  According to the posts posted by this group of players on the forum, there are even several "achievement actions" within them.

  For example, go fishing in Innsmouth, feed the dogs at Miscarto University, go to Dunwich to watch the moon, etc...

  The latter two are okay. As a university, Miscato University certainly cannot allow people to come in and out at will. The residents of Dunwich are quite simple, although sometimes they seem to be talking, but players in Dunwich prefer to climb mountains and watch the stars and moon, rather than go to the small town to cause trouble, so it is not a big deal.

   Only Innsmouth was bad luck.

After all, as a representative place of the Cthulhu mythology, this place has been turned upside down by the players. Everyone knows that the residents of Innsmouth are a group of deep diver cultists who believe in Cthulhu, so here, the actions of the players are as follows: Quite bold, dare to do anything.

  Anyway, deep divers have no human rights.

  Some people dare to go fishing on the edge of the cliff, some people dare to set fire to Dagon’s church, some people even sneak around doors and pick locks, and drill everywhere.

  Of course, some players would pat the Innsmouth people on the shoulder, "invite" them aside very friendly, and said to them with a smile.

   "I heard that Cthulhu is very interesting, call one out to show us?"

  God, the people of Innsmouth are just a group of deep diver cultists who are isolated from the world and have their own cute enclosures. Where have I seen this kind of players who are more crazy than their own masters? And the players are still competing to see who can dig out the deepest secrets. If you investigate mere deep divers, it’s not a big deal. If you don’t call Dagon or Cthulhu ashore, you will be sorry for your player’s name.

There are even players who directly approached the deep diver family and expressed their willingness to help, but then kicked the other party away, "What do you call mother-in-law, let me do it!", and then directly started to call for Cthulhu ceremony.

In the end, the entire Innsmouth group of demons danced wildly. The players who wanted to summon Cthulhu and the players who wanted to stop them directly fought together. On the contrary, the aborigines of Innsmouth hid in the house tremblingly. Those who dare to wander the streets...

So much so that the players who went later complained that the people in front of them had ruined Innsmouth, there was no local customs at all, just like those tourist attractions on Double Eleven, the streets were full of investigators, an aboriginal NPCs are invisible.

  But everyone still likes to go to Innsmouth, after all...anything in this place can trigger events, and then use them to increase points.

   Unless the whole of Innsmouth is dead.

So Duanmuhuai also planned to follow in the footsteps of his predecessors and go to Innsmouth to try his luck. He didn't go in the game. On the one hand, Duanmuhuai had more important tasks at the time, and on the other hand, it was the Innsmouth investigation at that time. There are too many people, and you can't meet a deep diver when you go out to buy a pack of cigarettes. In this case, going to Innsmouth is really sick.

  Fortunately, because these players turned Innsmouth upside down, Duanmuhuai may know Innsmouth better than the locals in Innsmouth.

  For example, there are four major families in Innsmouth.

  Including the Frink family who first built Innsmouth, the Fulson family who controlled the town's manufacturing and alchemy industries, the fanatical and radical Spock Association, and the Tolomini family who controlled the only hospital in the town.

  These four families cooperate with each other and compete with each other. After all, they all hope to attribute the glory of pleasing the evil **** they believe in to themselves-this shows that human greed is universal even if it is placed on the cultists.

  In the game, the fate of these four factions can be described as quite tragic. The Frink family was directly wiped out by the investigators who heard the news because of its big tree.

The Fulsom family is not much better either. They are rich and cult members, and in the eyes of the players, they are simply the best cash machines. Therefore, under the hands of the investigators who rushed in, the tragedy is comparable to the five horses in the downtown area. It is unbearable to look directly at.

It was even worse for the Spock Association. This association itself is the most radical and fanatical cultist. Facing the swarm of investigators, they are the most intolerable, so the first brave leader stood up and shouted: "Down with human tyranny, the world belongs to Dagon..."

   Then there is no more. Are you really the investigator playing tricks on you?

  The same goes for the Tolomini family. Although it relies on controlling the hospital, it hides deeply, so it was not killed by the investigators in the first place. But later, some investigators discovered the secret of the Tolomini family, and used it to coerce the Tolomini family to do things for him, and summoned Cthulhu as soon as possible——At that time, the Tolomini family still thought that they could use each other. I agreed.

The result was that the investigators couldn't understand the procrastinating attitude of these cult members, and planned to play a big game, but the Tolomini family didn't want to, and the two sides directly tore their faces into black and black - and ended up lying down. What the Lominy family didn't expect was that the other party actually believed in Dagon, relying on Dagon's divine power, in turn wiped them out!

  Is there anything more tragic than being wiped out by the evil **** you believe in?

   I’m afraid it’s gone.

According to the player who cooperated with the Tolomini family and then turned against the water to kill the other party, basically in Innsmouth, the four major families have similar methods-they will kidnap the residents of Innsmouth, and Will kidnap foreigners. Among them, after the local residents are kidnapped, they will be brainwashed and then become devout believers. The outsiders were basically used as sacrifices to Dagon.

  The conflict between him and the Tolomini family is also here. Originally, the player thought that quantitative changes would lead to qualitative changes. When will you kidnap people like this? It's better to hold some kind of activity, trick a bunch of onlookers who don't know the truth, and then give them all to Dagon in one pot, and it's over.

   Of course, the Tolomini family disagrees with this. If you want to say that occasionally a few outsiders disappear here, that’s all.

   The player is also very puzzled by this. If you can really make the evil **** happy, isn't it a problem? Or is it that the stupid evil **** you believe in can't even handle the human army? Then you believe it to hang?

  So the two sides fought.

  As for how to maximize the points of harvesting the entire Innsmouth, Duanmu Huai already had an idea through the information description in the forum.

Innsmouth was not wiped out, the biggest reason apart from their prudence was that there were people above them——Secret collusion between the people in power in Innsmouth and senior government officials. in hand.

Secondly, about the local area of ​​Innsmouth - there are no good people in this place, all the people of Innsmouth are hybrids of deep divers and humans, proper alien creatures, Duanmu Huai will have slaughtered the city for you in the trial court, men, women and children The kind that will die if you don't keep it all. Believe in evil gods and mutate in chaos, who will kill if you don't kill me?

  In fact, in the game, the more hybrid mutants in Innsmouth died, the higher the player's score.

   This actually has internal logic.

  In the novel "The Haze of Innsmouth" that made Innsmouth famous, the investigator escaped from Innsmouth and reported to the government, who sent a large army to suppress Innsmouth.

   But the problem is that it was 1920, when everyone was obedient and news was easy to control.

   Switch to 2000, which government would dare to march in and suppress a village?

   Then why don't you go directly to the national hot search and live broadcast every day!

  So Duanmu Huai also thought of a good idea.

  He can guarantee that this will definitely turn the entire Innsmouth into a real nightmare.

So this time, Duan Muhuai put Lorena at home, and then he took the rabbit and the black cat on the road. He didn't even take a car, but walked on foot, and just passed through the saline land surrounding Innsmouth. , came to this city.

  When the lights of Wanjia in Innsmouth appeared in front of Duanmuhuai, it was already evening three days later.

  The whole of Innsmouth was dead silent, only a little light meant that there were still people living inside, and the dark clouds roared and covered the entire sky, with the momentum of a storm coming.

   On the hillside, Duanmu Huai was standing there, staring coldly at the fishing village in front of him. He was wearing a black vest and suit, with a dark windbreaker on the outside, a wide-brimmed hat, and a black cane in his hand—of course, if you just look at it from this point of view, it seems that he is just a The ordinary gentleman is looking at the distant scenery.

  The premise is not to include the dilapidated and scrapped car next to Duanmu Huai that looks similar to a toy car.

   "Finally here, there is Innsmouth."

  Duanmu Huai held his cane, squinted his eyes and looked at the pre-existence below. He could see the dark Dagon church on the edge of the coastline, and he could also see the fishermen on the pier carrying fish from the fishing boats. There seemed to be no traffic on the street, only some people who obviously looked like tourists from other places, walking around there.

The howling wind swept past Duanmuhuai, and Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand, grabbed the waste paper that was blown by the wind, and unfolded it—it was a tourist poster, and the person depicted on it was Yinsi mouth.

  In the poster, Innsmouth is known as a holiday paradise, the best place for leisure travel, and said that the sea here is enough to make people forget all their troubles.

   Well, that is, there is no trouble when you die.

"Meow……"

  The black cat got out from Duanmuhuai's collar, stretched out his tongue and licked his face, and Duanmuhuai also stretched out his hand and touched the black cat's little head.

   "Okay, don't worry, the fun is just starting now."

  After saying this, Duanmu Huai clenched his cane tightly, turned around and disappeared into the darkness with big strides.

   At the same time, heavy rain poured down.
