Chapter 169: The Birth of a New Eldritch God?! Liu Xing, after silently cursing King Tindalos, pondered another pressing question: What exactly was the "Dark Life" curse? Generally, curses aimed to bring doom upon individuals. Liu Xing suspected that King Tindalos might have offended some Eldritch God, leading to the curse being placed upon his daughter. In desperation, King Tindalos transported his daughter to this era, seeking assistance to ward off the curse. However, Liu Xing couldn't fathom King Tindalos's reason for sending his daughter to this particular era. After all, as a member of the Yis People, King Tindalos possessed technological prowess rivaling that of the entire human race. Liu Xing doubted that technology alone could withstand the curse of an Eldritch God. So, what set this era apart from the one King Tindalos came from? Just as Liu Xing contemplated seeking inspiration from KP Li Shunchan and applying for an inspiration assessment, a sudden realization struck him. He considered a plausible explanation: the population of this eramore people! In the ancient Island Nation, various factors limited the population, and the wars were often mockingly referred to as "Village Chief scuffles." In the Asuka Era, around 600 AD, when King Tindalos established his kingdom in Ziwu City, Liu Xing estimated a population of only a few thousand, if not less. In contrast, the present-day Ziwu City easily housed over a hundred thousand people. And in the Cthulhu RPG Game, a larger population meant more Mana Points (MP). Certain spells in the Cthulhu RPG Game required a significant amount of MP, beyond the capabilities of just one or two individuals. Hence, more people needed to join the spell. Liu Xing speculated that King Tindalos had considered using a particular spell to lift the curse from his daughter. However, this spell required a vast amount of MP, beyond what King Tindalos's kingdom could muster. Therefore, he sent his daughter to this era, hoping to complete the spell with the help of the larger population. "Dark Life." Liu Xing muttered to himself, "Darkness likely refers to the literal meaning of darkness. So, Dark Life should be the birth in darkness... a solar eclipse?!" With this thought, Liu Xing quickly opened his phone and searched for recent news about solar eclipses. Liu Xing scratched his head, feeling a bit awkward about his acting. But he could only say, "Well, I think my character is the type to be loose-lipped. Faced with such shocking news, my character would definitely want to share it with someone, hence telling Watanabe Jiang everything." After a moment of silence, KP Li Shunchan said to Liu Xing, "Alright, if you successfully complete this module, I'll give you a new traitStraightforward. As for the specific effects, I'll let you know later." Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, not expecting to gain another trait. Currently, it seemed like this trait could be a double-edged sword, especially when combined with the trait of his "team character." Liu Xing felt he might have no secrets left in future tabletop games. "Okay, continue with your role-playing," KP Li Shunchan said with a smile. Liu Xing nodded and continued talking to Watanabe Jiang, "Forget about it, let's not discuss these things for now. Even if an Eldritch God does descend, it's not something we can stop. Watanabe Jiang, have you managed to contact anyone here?" Watanabe Jiang pointed to the laptop on the table, somewhat awkwardly saying, "Um, I haven't contacted anyone yet. After all, today is a workday, and not many people would choose to play games during the day." Liu Xing checked the time on his phone; it was already noon. He then invited Watanabe Jiang to go out for lunch. After lunch, Liu Xing and Watanabe Jiang coincidentally ran into Yin En. Seeing Liu Xing and Watanabe Jiang, Yin En approached and said somewhat dejectedly, "Liu Xing, Watanabe Jiang, do I look like a gangster to you?" Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, nodded seriously, and said, "If you want the truth, Yin En, just put on sunglasses, and you could go collect protection money on the streets."
