chapter 149: "necronomicon" generally speaking, in the cthulhu rpg game, any unknown liquid that's red can be assumed to be human blood. of course, liu xing could now use medical judgment to determine whether this so-called "soup" was really human blood. however, liu xing wouldn't do that because it was clearly a trap. if you identified this "soup" as made from human blood, your san value would definitely drop. even though liu xing was currently using a disposable character card, losing san points was still not preferable. he disliked that feeling of melancholy and loss. "wait a minute, why do i feel like i've seen this module somewhere before? is this some kind of dream?" while liu xing was still observing the room, addison suddenly spoke up. liu xing raised an eyebrow, and some scenes flashed through his mind, making him feel like he had encountered this module in reality. "i didn't expect you guys to remember this module. it's quite interesting. let me tell you, this module is indeed adapted from a module in reality, but the content is roughly the same. so, i temporarily blocked your memories of this module to prevent you from just following a guide and completing it in one or two minutes," kp ghost said with a smile. liu xing grinned. he hadn't thought that the module authors at the cthulhu role-playing game hall would be so lazy as to directly use real-world modules. however, liu xing also noticed a keyword in kp ghost's words— one or two minutes. clearly, this indicated that the difficulty of this module wasn't high, and with a guide, one could complete it in one or two minutes. thinking about this, liu xing shifted his gaze to the table and the steaming "soup." the name of this module was "soup," indicating that this bowl of "soup" was crucial to the module. in liu xing's scattered memories, he recalled that this place was indeed a dream. "i finally remember. if nothing goes wrong, this is indeed a dream world, and we've been pulled into this place by some great old one. the actual mission is to escape the dream!" addison said after contemplating for a while. liu xing nodded in agreement, saying, "addison is right. we must take action. i think the time for this timed module is around one hour, and we've already wasted more than five minutes." everyone nodded. "let's go to the study room first. among these four doors, only the study room's door is open, and we don't have keys for the other doors," xue jingliu expressed her opinion first. as xue jingliu said, liu xing's group hadn't found any keys yet, so their only option was to explore the study room. therefore, liu xing and addison, the "adults," walked ahead, while zhang jingxu and the other three, the "schoolchildren," followed, entering the study room. there was no electric light in the study room, only a lit white candle emitting a faint glow. in the dim light, liu xing observed the room filled with various books. yes, although there was only one bookshelf in the study room, it was stacked with hundreds of different books, and liu xing also found quite a few bamboo slips. "what is this? is it 'necronomicon'?" wu wei held a thick book, surprised. "necronomicon" is the most famous magical book in the cthulhu mythos, written by the mad arab poet abdul alhazred in the year 730 ad. the reason "necronomicon" gained such fame is that it not only detailed the existence of eldritch gods like elder sign, nyarlathotep, azathoth, cthulhu, yuggoth, shub-niggurath, tsathoggua, but also recorded the prehistoric earth's history, including the ancient grudges between the eldritch gods and their servants, the shoggoths. therefore, liu xing always considered "necronomicon" to be the first magical book in the cthulhu mythos, and he didn't expect to see it here today.
