Chapter 72: Acquiring a Trait


    KP Cao noticed Liu Xing''s thoughtful expression and understood what Liu Xing was pondering. With a chuckle, KP Cao said to Liu Xing, "Liu Xing, don''t overthink it. There are things you can''t possibly know right now. But, who knows, you might find out in a few days. And you should be aware of the rtionship between KP and PC in the real-world Cthulhu RPG Game."


    KP Cao stopped at that, saying no more.


    However, KP Cao''s hint instantly sparked a terrifying thought in Liu Xing''s mind: what if the KPs were also yers!


    In the real-world Cthulhu RPG Game, many PCs, after being driven to despair by the KPs, would eventually join them due to the game''s rules. The KPs, akin to gods for the PCs, were untouchable, leading many defeated PCs to adopt the mindset, "If I can''t beat you, I''ll join you," thus transitioning from PCs to KPs.


    Most KPs, who were former PCs, harbored thoughts of treating the current PCs the way they had been treated by their KPs. ording to Liu Xing''s knowledge, over 60% of the KPs in the Cthulhu RPG Gamemunity, both domestically and globally, belonged to a chaotic and evil alignment.


    However, what mattered more was KP Cao''s implication. Liu Xing was now almost certain that both KP Cao and KP004 were originally yers who, for some reason, had be KPs.


    Liu Xing furrowed his brow. The mysteries of the Cthulhu Role-ying Game Hall seemed ever moreplex.


    Liu Xing had pondered the origins of this Cthulhu Role-ying Game Hall. It bore striking simrities to the Main God Space in certain novels, with the only difference being the rules of the games yed.


    Aliens? Cutting-edge technology from a certain country? Or was Cthulhu''s existence real?


    These questions caused Liu Xing immense headache. Eventually, he leaned towards thetter belief – Cthulhu truly existed.


    ording to the lore, the sealed and slumbering Cthulhu wasn''t in a state ofplete sleep but was continuously transmitting brainwaves to the human world, influencing human thoughts, making some believe in Cthulhu''s existence. These believers became Cthulhu''s disciples, spreading his cult. Secret cults venerating Cthulhu existed in various sizes all over the world.


    So, there are some who even believe that Cthulhu truly exists. They argue that H.P. Lovecraft was influenced and guided by Cthulhu to start writing the Cthulhu Mythos, thereby formally announcing the existence of Cthulhu to the world. This revtion increased the number of Cthulhu''s followers. Even now, it is spected that some authors who write about the Cthulhu RPG Game are also called by Cthulhu,pelling them to write (said somewhat humorously).


    If the Eldritch Gods in the Cthulhu Mythos really exist, then Liu Xing strongly suspects that Nyathotep, an Outer God with maximum trouble-making ability, is the creator of the Cthulhu RPG Game Hall. However, Liu Xing still doesn''t understand the purpose of the Cthulhu Role-ying Game Hall''s existence.


    After pondering for a long time, Liu Xing couldn''t figure it out. After all, in the face of Eldritch Gods who can effortlessly destroy the world, humans are nothing but insignificant ants. Except for Nyathotep, who enjoys toying with humans for fun, the other Eldritch Gods don''t care about humans at all.


    Could it be that this Cthulhu Role-ying Game Hall is an arena created by Nyathotep, who wants yers like himself to entertain him with their lives? But now, Liu Xing suddenly has a premonition that the existence of the Cthulhu Role-ying Game Hall is far moreplex than he initially thought.


    "Okay, Liu Xing, you have used up your two questions. Now I will tell you the questions and answers of the other yers," said KP Cao, snapping his fingers and pulling Liu Xing back to reality.


    "First is Li Ming. His question was about how long it will take for his leg injury to heal. The answer is it''s up to fate. After a character is injured, there will be a specific healing option in the Interlude Growth. The recovery depends on the time interval between two RPG sessions. When the recovery reaches one hundred percent, it''s fully healed. By the way, there are items in the Shop that can speed up recovery, but they are quite expensive."


    "Next is Akira Akashi. Her question was whether it''s possible to change nationality. The answer is simple: you can choose to change nationality during Interlude Growth, but it requires a certain level of credit."


    "Then there''s Tian Dao. His question was rather odd. He asked if the Formless Offspring eats Li Ming, would its speed change? The answer is yes, because the speed of the Formless Offspring is consistent with the slowest living yer."


    "Then there''s Tina. One of her questions, like Akira Akashi''s, was about changing back to Chinese nationality. After all, if she advances to the next area, there would benguage barriers. This is linked to Tina''s second question: whether the scenario of the RPG sessions yers participate in will be based on the nationality on their character card. The answer is yes. There''s a sixty percent chance that the scenario will take ce in the country of the yer''s character card nationality. The remaining twenty percent happens in the yer''s actual nationality country, and thest twenty percent is random."


    Liu Xing raised an eyebrow. Tina''s question was very helpful to him. It seems that the scenario of the RPG sessions he will participate in has an eighty percent chance of urring domestically and twenty percent internationally. This relieved Liu Xing, as the home ground, would definitely offer certain advantages, likenguage.


    "Alright, that''s it. I will now send you back to the real world. However, because of your excellent performance in these two Cthulhu RPG Games, you have gained a trait—Team yer. When you act in a team, some of your skills will be enhanced. Therger the team, the greater the bonus. However, your actions should prioritize the team."
