Liu Xing hadn't even spoken when Panda Pig chimed in with a smile, "Well, it's not necessarily the case. Although there's a possibility, don't forget that from the photos and the content of the last letter, the Inoue Kenjiro family seemed to be in a normal state at that time. This suggests that the Hypnotic Incense didn't affect the Inoue Kenjiro family. I don't think a jade pendant alone would have such a good effect." Liu Xing nodded in agreement and said, "You're right. I also think that a jade pendant alone wouldn't have such a strong effect. Besides, it was just a farewell gift from Li Yongjie to Inoue Kenjiro. But speaking of Li Yongjie, I'm really curious about him. He seems far from ordinary." "That's right. Li Yongjie is obviously not an ordinary person. First of all, he managed to find a place as isolated as Fisher's Village, and he even investigated the origins of the Ocean True Deity Sect. You know, these Secret Cults are usually well-hidden. I've been trying to investigate one of them in the past few modules, and I've made no progress so far. But Li Yongjie managed to uncover the history of the Ocean True Deity Sect in just a month. That's not simple at all," Zhang Jingxu nodded in agreement. Miyako Goudong was a bit defiant and said, "I also think this Zhang Yongjie is not ordinary. That's why I believe the jade pendant is special." Seeing the situation, Liu Xing had to persuade, "You have a point, but if that jade pendant can really completely counteract the effects of the Hypnotic Incense, then it's a treasure. If we were in the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall's shop, it would easily sell for at least 2000 points. So, I don't think there will be such good benefits in the Shoggoth Region module." Miyako Goudong couldn't argue with that because Liu Xing made a valid point. "Alright, let's not talk about this topic anymore. Let's discuss how to visit the Ancestral Hall in Fisher's Village. It's likely that Matsui Ichiro has transformed it into a place for conducting ritual ceremonies, and it's also the final battlefield for this module. So, we need to go inside and take a look. But everyone should prepare mentally in advance because places like these usually cause a loss of sanity," Ling Ishikawa stepped in to mediate. That was indeed a problem. Zhang Jingxu nodded and said, "Indeed, we can't rely entirely on Lockpicking Skill. But I have a bold idea. Liu Xing, are you willing to give it a try?" Liu Xing felt a chill run down his spine suddenly, sensing that Zhang Jingxu might have something up his sleeve. Nevertheless, for the sake of the greater good, Liu Xing reluctantly nodded and said, "Tell me more." Zhang Jingxu grinned and took out a small bottle from his pocket. He explained, "This small bottle contains a special powder, a necessary material for me to use the Wall-Passing Technique. If I pour this powder on you and recite the incantation, you will gain the ability to pass through walls for a certain amount of time." Liu Xing raised an eyebrow and smiled, "So, what's the catch? Everyone knows that the Magic Spells in the Cthulhu RPG Game are one disappointment after another. Besides, this Wall-Passing Technique of yours sounds quite suspicious. Let me put it this way, Zhang Jingxu, have you ever used this Wall-Passing Technique?" Zhang Jingxu chuckled and shook his head, then proceeded to explain the details of the Wall-Passing Technique. The Wall-Passing Technique was an exclusive skill for Taoist characters. Only players with the Taoist class could learn and use it. To activate the Wall-Passing Technique, a special powder made from a mixture of various materials had to be evenly applied to someone's body. Then, the incantation for the Wall-Passing Technique had to be recited. The success rate of gaining the ability to pass through walls depended on the caster's MP consumption. However, it was important to note that the success rate of using the ability to pass through walls was calculated separately. For example, for Liu Xing to enter and exit the Fisher's Village Ancestral Hall, he would have to go through two separate Wall-Passing Technique judgments. Moreover, there was a prerequisite for using the Wall-Passing Technique: one had to forcefully hit their head against the wall to activate it. Without meeting this requirement, even if the Wall-Passing Technique judgment succeeded, it would not be possible to pass through the wall. Zhang Jingxu grinned and said, "Liu Xing, do you dare to try the Wall-Passing Technique? Currently, in my experience, the success rate of the Wall-Passing Technique is as high as 25 percent. Even if it fails, you'll just end up with a few bumps on your head."
