chapter 36: the ending screen and rewards suspended mid-air, liu xing glanced around but didn't see bai hecheng or the others—it seemed everyone's ending was experienced in solitude. to liu xing, it was like watching a movie sped up tenfold; he watched as the van hurried into the city of manchester, only to be stopped by traffic police. after all, there was a person tied to the roof of the van, which clearly spelled trouble. at this point, kp004 took on the role of a narrator, "upon arriving in manchester, liu xing and his group were stopped by the traffic police for questioning. liu xing recounted the events that transpired in einscastle, including how gary had threatened him with a handgun. it was during this interrogation that isabella suddenly revealed to the police that gary was in fact a serial killer who preyed on foreign tourists visiting the castle. his modus operandi was to murder the tourists while they slept and then feed their bodies to the beasts he kept in the basement." "the police believed isabella's accusations and took liu xing, the group, and isabella to the police station. the chief of police, chris, gave the matter his immediate attention. over the past decade, manchester had seen over a hundred cases of missing foreign tourists that had remained unsolved. so, chief chris quickly mobilized a police force to search einscastle, where they discovered the dismembered corpses of gary and old wayne in a locked room, along with the opened entrance to a basement. the coroner's assessment concluded that both had been attacked and killed by a beast, which had since vanished without a trace." "in the end, the police found a massive pile of human bones in the basement, alongside copious amounts of human blood and formalin-soaked human organs, and an indistinct magic circle. the police finally determined that gary was the mastermind behind the disappearance of the hundreds of foreign tourists over the past decade, and his motive was to use their blood and organs in vile magical rituals." "however, there was a peculiar discovery: in the northeast corner of the basement was a small room resembling a bedroom, showing signs of human activity, but in extreme disrepair, likely untouched for over a decade. scattered about were copious amounts of hair, clearly not human, leading the police to suspect this was where gary kept the beast." as kp004 narrated, liu xing witnessed all that was described, especially the corpses of gary and old wayne. even as a medical student accustomed to cadavers, the sight was enough to make liu xing feel queasy; their deaths were too gruesome, the bodies left in a state of violent disarray... before liu xing could grasp the situation, everything around him vanished as if erased by a giant eraser. suddenly, a man in a plague bird mask and black attire appeared before liu xing. "hello, liu xing. congratulations on successfully completing the cthulhu rpg game and achieving the hidden ending. with a team contribution rate of 42%, you have become the mvp of this cthulhu rpg game. thus, i am personally here to conduct your reward settlement." liu xing recognized from the voice that this person was kp004. "now, let's proceed with the basic reward settlement of this cthulhu rpg game. first and foremost are the points. you will receive 120 points, of which 60 are the basic completion points, 30 are the mvp reward points, and the last 30 are for accomplishing the hidden ending." "next is the network reward associated with your character card. you have obtained the personal contact details of isabella and chris (the chief of the manchester police and isabella's current foster father). when using this character card, after a successful luck check, you may contact isabella or chris for assistance. the success rate of such help will be determined by the favorability between you and them. currently, isabella's favorability towards you is at 20, while chris's is at 50." "lastly, your skill growth within this cthulhu rpg game. your psychology skill has increased by 1 point. now, please roll a 1d20 dice to determine the growth of your lockpicking skill." as soon as kp004 finished speaking, a twenty-sided die appeared in liu xing's hand. without overthinking, liu xing tossed the die—a 10.
