chapter 44: rendezvous clearly, the god named suru mentioned in the stone tablet was none other than cthulhu. as for the so-called "dream transmission," it was simply cthulhu's call. after a mental communion with the taoist, cthulhu imparted the ritual of the harvest festival, the price being that the residents of the small county town had all become followers of cthulhu. for an eldritch god of cthulhu's caliber, the presence or absence of worshippers was inconsequential, as his strength was not swayed by faith. however, no one would find being worshipped troublesome, and to cthulhu, his followers were equivalent to a feast... yet, what puzzled liu xing at the moment was the lack of detail on the stone tablet regarding the specific offerings required for the harvest festival. in liu xing's opinion, the task for this promotion game would undoubtedly involve the offerings needed for the harvest festival, which now made him regret not bringing the qingming festival offerings with him.the roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin. "beep beep beep." liu xing's phone suddenly rang. opening it, he saw a message from someone named akira akashi, which suggested that this person was likely another player. "old chinese doctor, it's time for our rendezvous. hurry to the entrance of the harvest festival for the gathering." liu xing turned off his phone and headed towards the entrance of the harvest festival. in no time, liu xing arrived at the entrance, where the other four players had already gathered—two men and two women. he couldn't help but notice that the two female players were exceptionally beautiful, estimating that their app ratings would be around 80. however, to liu xing's surprise, one of the women, who had a more mature appearance, seemed to be from eastern europe. originally, liu xing only felt puzzled by tina's username, but now he looked at tina with a bit of concern, especially since her first title was "decapitator"! as soon as kp cao finished speaking, liu xing and the others instinctively stepped back, distancing themselves from tina. tina just looked helplessly resigned to her fate. "ha-ha-ha, don't be like that," kp cao said, laughing. "i was the one who gave tina her first title 'decapitator' because, in a game i hosted, she went temporarily mad and beheaded more than a dozen chickens, all with clean cuts to the head." hearing this, liu xing finally relaxed. it seemed that tina wasn't as threatening as he had imagined. however, liu xing couldn't help but feel that kp cao was somewhat unreliable. after the minor incident with the titles, everyone continued to play their roles. "by the way, does anyone have alger's phone number? i've called him a few times, but he hasn't answered. you guys try to call him too," tina said, waving her phone in frustration. alger was the character card for kite. although everyone knew that kite was out of the game, their character cards did not—so they had to keep playing as such. as a witness to kite's departure, liu xing naturally stepped forward, "uh, if i'm not mistaken, alger might have gone to the hospital. i think i saw a foreigner being taken there because of an injury at the temple." with that, liu xing shared the grim details of kite's condition with everyone... although the others knew that kite had been taken to the hospital due to injuries, they were unaware of the exact cause, so the truth left everyone completely baffled. clearly, everyone was stunned by kite's breath-taking maneuver!
