Chapter 247: Killing Bai Hecheng Liu Xing felt a sudden pain in his chest, followed by a gradual draining of his life force. Darkness enveloped his vision, and he lost all sensation of his body. At this moment, Liu Xing could only think, "Am I dying?" However, KP Li Shunchan had a different perspective, saying, "OK, because the player Liu Xing possesses an invitation from the Dark Party, the character card 'Liu Xing' is now in a state of temporary death. Players can choose to use the Dark Party's invitation to initiate a resurrection module from the main interface of the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall. Furthermore, due to player Liu Xing having a special, automatically activated character card, we will now create a new character cardWatanabeRyusei." "WatanabeRyusei?!" Liu Xing raised an eyebrow in surprise. This WatanabeRyusei must be Shizuka's classmate. Little did he expect that his second character card would turn into this NPC. Truly, the world was unpredictable. Upon further consideration, it made sense. Liu Xing had obtained this special character card from the beginner module, which allowed him to create a new character card after tearing one. What Liu Xing hadn't anticipated, however, was that he would directly "inhabit" an NPC. Thinking about it, it was logical. Given the current situation, Liu Xing's new character had to inhabit an NPC inside the cockpit, and this NPC had to be in opposition to Bai Hecheng for the module to continue. After all, if Liu Xing had "inhabited" NPCs outside the cockpit, who were unaware of the true situation, the module would have been unplayable, and Liu Xing would have faced an imminent death. If Liu Xing had possessed someone like the headmaster, that might have been equally problematic. However, when Liu Xing saw WatanabeRyusei's character card, he could only describe himself as stunned. Name: WatanabeRyusei Occupation: High School Student (Leader of the Worshipers of the Yellow Sect) Gender: Male Age: 18 Traits: Leadership (receives a bonus die on relevant leadership checks), Blessing of the Yellow King (increased HP and MP, damage bonus fixed at 1, and maximum SAN value rendered fuzzy and unreadable) Background: WatanabeRyusei's father was the first-generation leader of the Worshipers of the Yellow Sect, a secretive cult in the Island Nation that worships King Hastur in Yellow Robes. WatanabeRyusei grew up as a devoted follower of the Yellow King and, during a ritual, received some strange powers. However, his father's ambition led to the discovery of the cult by the Island Nation police while preparing for the next ritual, resulting in the destruction of the Worshipers of the Yellow Sect. WatanabeRyusei's father was imprisoned, but WatanabeRyusei managed to escape incarceration by pretending to be ignorant of the cult's existence. Relevance to the Current Module: WatanabeRyusei, due to his worship of King Hastur in Yellow Robes, opposes the followers of Byakhee and Deep One. Upon discovering that the higher-ups at Morimoto Academy are Deep One worshippers, WatanabeRyusei infiltrated the school to gather evidence and dismantle the Deep Sea Gospel Society. He transferred to Morimoto Academy last month and participated in this graduation trip to collect valuable clues. Character Attributes: Strength: 60Constitution: 60Willpower: 75Luck: 70Agility: 50Appearance: 85Build: 60Intelligence: 80Inspiration: 70Education: 70Cthulhu Mythos Knowledge: 20Sanity: 60/??HP: 12MP: 30Damage Bonus: 1Credit: 30Skills: Island Nation Language 80, Library Use 60, Investigation 50, Listening 40, Persuasion 70, Combat 40, Dodge 40, Occult 80. Special Abilities: Summon/Dismiss Byakhee (costs 10 MP, summons Byakhee after five minutes of spellcasting, dismisses Byakhee for an additional 5 MP), Summoning Ritual of King Hastur in Yellow Robes (incomplete skill, currently unusable). Possessions: Cellphone, English translation of "Yellow King" (can be read in a week, grants 5 Cthulhu Mythos Knowledge upon completion, followed by a SAN roll; success reduces 1d3 SAN, failure reduces 1d6 SAN), "Worshipers of the Yellow Sect Scriptures" (a book on the history, development, and doctrine of the Worshipers of the Yellow Sect, with no special effects), Yellow Seal Pendant (a jade pendant with a yellow seal that can have unexpected effects in certain situations, more effective than the Elder Sign), Ritual Dagger (a specialized Ritual Dagger of the Worshipers of the Yellow Sect, deals 1d damage to enemies). Followers: Juichi Oshima (combat type), Katsuya Maeda (support type), Masayoshi Takahashi (average type) Liu Xing hadn't expected WatanabeRyusei to be not only a devout follower but also the leader of a secret cult. Moreover, this leader only had three followers. It seemed that WatanabeRyusei was quite confident, daring to infiltrate the enemy's ranks and gather evidence against the Deep Sea Gospel Society. His attributes were impressive, and the blessing from King Hastur in Yellow Robes had boosted his strength considerably. However, Liu Xing was surprised to see that Bai Hecheng, who had already died, still had a creepy smile on his face! Before Liu Xing could react, he lost consciousness as usual and entered the god's-eye view. "WatanabeRyusei," who had killed Bai Hecheng, immediately closed the signal jammer next to the control panel, called the police, and then used the ship's public address system to inform the ordinary passengers on the Yueshihao cruise ship about what had happened. Finally, he lay on the ground, pretending to be affected by the poison. The Yueshihao cruise ship eventually docked safely at the shore. The Cosmic Country police quickly took control of the cultists and transported "Liu Xing" and the others to the hospital. As Liu Xing had expected, "Liu Xing" was diagnosed as being in a vegetative state and was taken back to the hospital where Liu Xing worked for comprehensive treatment. However, what surprised Liu Xing was that "Yin En" was also confirmed to be in a vegetative state and was taken back to the Sawada Family in the Island Nation for treatment. This made Liu Xing somewhat puzzled, suggesting that Yin En also had a resurrection module in his possession. As for those cultists, after they regained consciousness and received treatment, they chose to commit suicide while in police custody. However, Liu Xing suspected it might have been more like "forced suicide" because the president of the Cosmic Country was also a cultist. The students from Morimoto Academy were sent back to the Island Nation after regaining consciousness, while Morimoto Academy shifted all blame onto the headmaster. The game was over. Liu Xing once again saw KP Li Shunchan, who was also smiling, and he said, "Liu Xing, you should really thank me today. If I hadn't allowed you to possess WatanabeRyusei, you probably wouldn't have been able to kill Bai Hecheng." Liu Xing chuckled and exposed the truth, saying, "Hehe, KP, don't think I didn't know. At that time, I could only possess WatanabeRyusei, right?" KP Li Shunchan, feeling exposed, said in frustration, "Well, you guys have no appreciation for me at all. Anyway, you're the MVP of this module and have earned 1500 points. Now that all the other players have exited, do you also want to exit at this time?" Liu Xing nodded, but he had a question, "By the way, didn't we used to have a Q&A session? Why is it missing now?" KP Li Shunchan shook his head and explained with a smile, "There's no need for that now. The Q&A session was part of the Ghoul Zone's newbie service to help you familiarize yourselves with the game. Well, I'll send you back now." Liu Xing's vision blurred, and he returned to reality. [Thanks for reading at /maxnkoga , if you supporting this novel, a heartfelt thankyou, enjoy the content!]
