Dice In The Darkness: Cthulhu Calls

Chapter 152: Clearing Method

Liu Xing left the study room feeling relieved. He never expected to inadvertently trigger a Formless Offspring.

"It seems to be a triggered mechanism. When someone tries to take away that little booklet, it summons the Formless Offspring. However, as long as you put the booklet back, the Formless Offspring won't pursue. The setup is quite interesting," Addison chuckled.

Liu Xing looked at Addison with a puzzled expression and said, "Interesting my foot! That Formless Offspring materialized silently. If Zhang Jingxu hadn't warned me just now, I would have definitely been attacked. You know the attack pattern of the Formless Offspring, Addison. I would have been doomed for sure."

After venting his frustration, Liu Xing cautiously approached the iron door and pressed his ear against it.

"Liu Xing, do you want to listen in?" KP Ghost spoke up.

Liu Xing nodded.

Liu Xing, 32/50, success.

After successfully listening in, Liu Xing heard a sound of friction against the ground behind the iron door, reminiscent of the Dread Hunter's serpent form.

"Sure enough, there's a Dread Hunter waiting for us behind this iron door," Liu Xing said with a smile.

Zhang Jingxu walked over, pointing to the Small Iron Window that seemed to be movable on the iron door. "Liu Xing, my character card is not tall enough. Can you try if this Small Iron Window can be moved? If everything goes well, this will be our only way to throw the poison bottle. But Liu Xing, be careful not to look inside, so as not to lose SAN points."

Liu Xing nodded with a smile, then stood beside the iron door, pushing the Small Iron Window with more ease than he had imagined.

In less than a second after the Small Iron Window was pushed open, the Dread Hunter behind the iron door began to pound on the door. The banging sounds made Liu Xing and the others change their expressions, taking a few steps back involuntarily.

However, Addison, being a Veteran Driver, quickly responded. He whispered, "Don't worry, the Dread Hunter should not be able to break through the iron door. After all, this is a simple difficulty module. How could it allow the Dread Hunter to easily break through and force a combat trigger? I think it's just trying to scare us to create a tense atmosphere."

As if on cue, as Addison finished speaking, the Dread Hunter stopped banging on the door, and everything returned to calm.

"Playing Super Game is still better. It's so much more convenient. Discussing intelligence doesn't require careful wording, and you can quickly analyze the cause and effect of events, avoid potential dangers in advance, and gather more intelligence," Wu Wei exclaimed.

Liu Xing nodded. Playing games in the Super Game state was indeed easy and enjoyable. Players were essentially in a god-like perspective, using knowledge beyond that of "ordinary people" to analyze situations. Moreover, they could have stress-free conversations without being influenced by "character traits" and "character relationships," ensuring the smooth exchange of intelligence and the ability to prepare for various situations in advance.

In summary, Super Game can instantly reduce the difficulty of the Cthulhu RPG Game by several levels, making it an absolute prohibition in the Cthulhu RPG Game.

"However, on second thought, isn't this small window a bit too small? I feel like if we throw something through it, our accuracy will be significantly reduced," Wu Wei said, looking at the Small Iron Window, pondering.

As Wu Wei mentioned, the Small Iron Window was only the size of a palm. Trying to throw a poison bottle through it into the Dread Hunter's mouth would undoubtedly come with a debuff.

"Well, let's ask KP then. KP, if we throw a poison bottle through this Small Iron Window at the Dread Hunter, what's the success rate?" Liu Xing inquired.

KP Ghost remained silent for a moment and said seriously, "Well, because this is a compensation module, I'll raise the success rate for you. How about 10%?"

Liu Xing chuckled. A 10% success rate was basically a guaranteed failure.

"All right, it seems we can't count on throwing the poison bottle through the Small Iron Window unless we can find a hundred bottles of poison in the other two rooms," Xue Jingliu said in frustration.

"Alas, let's move on to the next room now. We probably only have 40 minutes left, and we can't afford to waste any more time," Liu Xing said, rallying everyone.

However, at this moment, Zhang Jingxu pointed to the bowl of Blood Soup on the table and said seriously, "By the way, I think if we drink this bowl of Blood Soup, we should be able to clear the level directly. After all, the module is titled Blood Soup, and the clues are directing us to drink it. Moreover, didn't KP say at the beginning that with a guide, we could clear the module in about a minute? So drinking this bowl of Blood Soup should be the fastest action for us."

Zhang Jingxu's words made everyone pause, contemplating the possibility of this action.

"I think Zhang Jingxu is right. Drinking this bowl of Blood Soup should allow us to clear the level directly. However, this bowl of Blood Soup should be for one person only, right? So, if Zhang Jingxu is willing to drink it, then go ahead. I don't think anyone will object," Addison suggested.

Liu Xing nodded, saying with a smile, "First come, first served. Zhang Jingxu, you discovered it first, so go ahead. I believe we can find more Blood Soup in the kitchen."

Seeing this, Zhang Jingxu straightforwardly walked up, lifted the bowl of Blood Soup, and said with a strong presence, "Since you all say so, I also trust my judgment. I'll take the first step, and I hope we can continue gaming together in the future."

After saying this, Zhang Jingxu raised the Blood Soup and gulped it down.

Then, Zhang Jingxu disappeared directly from the sight of Liu Xing and the others.

"Hehe, congratulations on discovering one of the Clearing Methods of this module. Zhang Jingxu has already cleared it in advance," KP Ghost said with a smile.

After exchanging glances, Liu Xing and the others instinctively headed towards the kitchen in the south.

Xue Jingliu picked up the key and was about to insert it into the keyhole when KP Ghost stepped forward again, "Xue Jingliu, it's time for you to make a lucky judgment. Decide whether this key is for the kitchen or the bedroom."

Xue Jingliu, 12/50, success.

Xue Jingliu successfully opened the kitchen door.
