July.

The scorching sun is like fire.

Miskatonik University, former Institute of Nuclear Energy.

The Nuclear Energy Institute is located near the office building on the main entrance of the university. In the 1950s, it was one of the most impressive buildings in the entire school. The Nathaniel Derby Pickerman Foundation invested in the construction of the institute, but after the end of the Cold War, the incomplete institute also closed down.

Later, the school wanted to restart the institute, but after a series of accidents caused by the Japanese tsunami, as protesters came from Boston increased, the school once again frozen the old house and turned its attention to the supercomputer field.

The Pickerman Nuclear Energy Institute is now a public exhibition hall, displaying the research results of the University of Miskatonik in archaeology, medicine and geology - the kind that is harmless to humans and animals.

Gao Yang Chengsan was worried.

He and the entire "Kamen Rider" crew received a new investment, and the movie version originally scheduled to be filmed in Japan was also "generously" changed to filming in the United States, on the condition that the location must be designated by the investor.

On the trail behind the Nuclear Energy Institute of Miskatonik University...

"Mr. Chen..." Gao Yangchengsan, who took off his leather case, was sweating heavily, and looked carefully at the special stunt team wearing sunglasses and fake beard, the noble uninvited guest.

Like Gao Yang Chengsan, other staff members in the special stunt team also turned strange eyes to the "assistant" who joined the street. He almost didn't do anything, but he often stared at the corners of the darkness with a warning look, as if something was lurking there. After everyone got the instructions from their superiors, they naturally didn't dare to ask more questions.

Gao Yang Chengsan felt that Chen Qiang was almost the strangest big boss he had ever seen - he had never seen any big boss who had to dress up as an ordinary staff member when he went on a trip, and followed the "unrelated" TV series shooting team.

"It's finally July 1st," Chen Qiang muttered to himself, "I don't know how Xiaoxue's treatment is going."

Chen Qiang's eyes fell on Gao Yang Chengsan. He had just escaped from the costume and was covered in sweat.

"Your job is really hard," Chen Qiang said.

"I plan to retire next year," said Gao Yang Chengsan. He started saying this ten years ago, but he has never made up his mind to say goodbye to the audience.

"Maybe next year, you won't have to work so hard," Chen Qiang said in a pun, "The progress of technology is changing with each passing day."

Gao Yang Chengsan wanted to say "How is that possible?" but considering that the person opposite was Chen Qiang, he held back.

When the old stunt actor was young, he was full of beautiful imaginations about future technology, such as the popularity of private aircraft and the eradication of cancer, but the result was not as beautiful as anyone imagined.

For Gao Yang Chengsan, Mr. Chen may be an expert in the digital field, but in other aspects, he is just using oral satellites.

I hope I can see the real "Kamen Rider" in my lifetime, Gao Yang Chengsan thought.

...

Time went back half a month ago.

In a hot spring hotel in Hokkaido.

"Okay, Is," Chen Qiang nodded to Is, opposite the table, "I've allowed it."

"I must perform well," Ice stood straight, "wait until the mission is over..."

"I will let you learn from this lady," Chen Qiang nodded, and Helena Bravatsky, who was sitting aside, also smiled. "The human knowledge system is very suitable for you."

By the standards of the Isles, this person's intelligence level is not enough, but by the standards of human beings, Isles, who has three academic skills in 80, is the real level of a master's degree in human society. Her will is also as high as 85, which is higher than the average of the Isles.

"If you have anything to make up for your mind," said Chen Qiang, "you can discuss it with Bai Shaobao. Remember, your task is just a liaison officer. If you find other Isles, remember to report to me."

Is nodded. She bowed deeply to Chen Qiang, and left.

[Module: The approaching shadow of time has been completed]

The sounding system prompt made Chen Qiang breathe a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, as long as Ice completely works hard for himself, the module can achieve it.

In fact, Chen Qiang doesn't mind letting this module hang in his "taskbar" for a while: as long as the module is not displayed, he doesn't need to activate the "Eye of the Secret Guardian" talent to see the dice check results, which is quite convenient...

[You have received the reward investigator talent: Friends of Isles, your reason will not be reduced by witnessing Isles (non-human form).]

In total, Chen Qiang already has a series of investigator talents with "Friends of Ghouls", "Friends of the Ancients", "Friends of Is", "Burning Luck", "Recovering Luck", "Spiritual Solidification" (most rational losses are halved), "Take a single bet" (in some occasions, you can make a second check with a certain risk, and if you fail, you will suffer a punishment similar to a big failure) and "Friends of Players" (improving pre-set reputation among the game player group). By keeping the secret talent "distributes talents", Chen Qiang can allocate some talents to the investigators.

The crucial rational pool is to accumulate more than 170 points.

[Chen Qiang's psychology grew to 73, rhetoric grew to 90, persuasion grew to 43, stealth grew to 29, listening grew to 73]

[Chen Qiang's speech has reached 90, reaching the level of human expert, and his rationality has recovered to 44]

“…Ha. Because my upper limit is only 44.”

[You have completed 10 modules in total, achieved the hidden task "traversal myth", and obtained the talent of a random secret keeper]

Huh? So there are only ten?

Chen Qiang's two secret room modules "Five Color Door" and "Red Knife" (the investigator exited midway) were not included.

From behind, "the approaching shadow of time", "hit-and-run", "future point", "emerald pursuer", "soul over Arkham", "Christmas carnival in the ocean", "sound beyond time", "the curse of the hanged king", "summer at summer night", "king the yellow-clothed king in the board game club".

“……Um.”

There are 10 experiences in person.

"Actually you can ask IS agent network to help you." Helena interrupted.

The premise is that Chen Qiang is really an IS, she thought.

"I prefer to do it myself." Chen Qiang shrugged.

The final prompt of the system seems to be stuck for a while more than usual.

[You have obtained the additional talent of "Secret Keeper's Notebook". In the app's Notebook function, you can view the attribute values ​​of the mythical creatures you have come into contact with (race average). The existence of divine nature requires special conditions to be viewed.]

It's a long-lost monster manual!

Chen Qiang felt excited.

Still sleeping, Kheila, the "daughter of Cthulhu" who is probably unable to directly join the ranks of investigators. With this function, at least she has the opportunity to take a look at her card...
