Dice In The Darkness: Cthulhu Calls

Chapter 113: The Situation on Sky Floating Island

Of course, this was just something Liu Xing was idly thinking about. After all, if Liu Xing dared to speak his mind, KP Luo Luo would probably silence him...

"Alright, everyone, take your seats and get ready for dinner," Silvia said as she sat at the head of a long table, already holding her knife and fork.

Luo Luo, Xiao Liu, and the others also found their seats. However, Liu Xing couldn't help but be puzzled because there was nothing on the table except for bowls, chopsticks, knives, and forks.

Nevertheless, Liu Xing and his group took their seats, despite their confusion. After all, Silvia couldn't possibly be wasting their time for no reason.

"Alright, newcomers, now it's time for you to experience the only thing worth mentioning in this cursed place—food," Silvia said mysteriously.

As she spoke, Silvia pulled a stack of white papers from her pocket. Liu Xing could vaguely see the words "Twice-Cooked Pork" written on the top paper...

Then, Silvia tore the paper with "Twice-Cooked Pork" written on it in half, and suddenly, a steaming and substantial dish of Twice-Cooked Pork appeared on the table.

Afterward, Silvia tore several more pieces of paper, and various dishes appeared on the table.

"I can't believe how convenient and fast the food is in this world," He Wei exclaimed as he looked at everything.

Luo Luo chuckled and began to explain to Liu Xing and his group, "On this Sky Floating Island, there are no vegetables or livestock from the real world. However, when you defeat the monsters here, they drop what we call 'meal vouchers' in Silvia's hands. All you have to do is tear open a meal voucher, and various types of food will appear."

Liu Xing nodded and couldn't help but feel like the NPC players were playing an RPG game.

Next, Silvia provided some basic information about Sky Floating Island to Liu Xing's group.

Firstly, Sky Floating Island was divided into five regions, just as Liu Xing had imagined. The Blood Howl Town area was the only base for NPC players and had the fewest mythical creatures, making it the weakest region overall.

Furthermore, all the houses in Blood Howl Town would occasionally refresh with some weapons and equipment. The larger the house, the better the quality and quantity of the equipment that would refresh. As a result, all 25 houses in Blood Howl Town had been claimed by various NPC player teams. The house Liu Xing was currently in could only be considered average, with a refresh rate of about one piece of equipment every three days. Sikong Yangbing occupied the best houses in Blood Howl Town, where equipment refreshed daily.

Of course, that didn't mean the smaller houses couldn't produce good equipment. For example, Sikong Yangbing had obtained his blue-flaming Gatling gun from a small house three months ago when he was just the leader of a three-person team. Thanks to that gun, Sikong Yangbing had risen to power in Blood Howl Town. As for the remaining four regions on Sky Floating Island, Silvia had only visited the Forest region, which NPC players commonly referred to as the Wolfman's Forest. This was because the primary monsters in the Forest region were Wolfmen. However, Silvia had heard from other NPC players that there had once been a terrifying and giant monster in the Forest region. Liu Xing's initial reaction was to think of Nyarlathotep's incarnation, Blood Howl. However, upon closer consideration, if Blood Howl appeared in the Forest region, players would have to abandon the five diamonds in the area.

Regarding the other three regions, Silvia had gathered some information from older NPC players. The most terrifying of them all was the central lake area known as the Fishmen Tribe, because it was inhabited by a large number of Fishmen, also known as Deep Ones. They were highly aggressive, and as soon as NPC players' boats touched the water, they would be attacked by the Deep Ones. Therefore, the lake area had become a recognized no-go zone for NPC players.

Next was the Snowy Mountain region. Silvia had heard that this region had very few monsters, primarily Snowmen, but they were extremely powerful individuals. Combined with the harsh climate, few NPC players chose to venture into the Snowy Mountain region.

Finally, there was the Desert region, home to a large population of Snake People and Scorpion People who were in constant conflict. It was not uncommon to witness battles between the two, and both had a certain level of intelligence. They would recruit NPC players to fight for them and offer decent rewards.

Silvia's current team had roles assigned as follows: Silvia and the Count were responsible for combat, Luo Cong handled support and logistics, and Xiao Liu... was in charge of being adorable.

Now that Liu Xing's group had joined Silvia's team, the male members, including Liu Xing, would be responsible for combat, while Ai Mei and Pei Si would become part of Luo Yu's team.

After dinner, Luo Yu led Liu Xing's group to a room and distributed equipment to each of them: a pistol with a 6-round magazine and 1d4 damage, ten magazines, and a +1 armor leather jacket.

In the Cthulhu RPG Game, armor was also an important attribute, and there could be situations in combat where the armor was not penetrated. Most mythical creatures had natural armor, like the Ghoul's skin, which provided 1 point of armor, while humans had zero armor.

After receiving their equipment, Liu Xing's group was taken to the second floor by Luo Yu, where they were assigned rooms for two people each. Liu Xing shared a room with Ji Wu.

"You guys can rest for a while. Silvia is taking Xiao Liu to find Second Auntie right now, and if everything goes well, they should be able to get the diamonds from Second Auntie," Luo Yu instructed before leaving.

After Luo Yu left, Liu Xing's group gathered together, their understanding unspoken but shared.

"KP, it's time to start a Private Room session," Liu Xing contacted KP Luo Luo.

"Okay, Private Room session is open. By the way, I know what you guys are thinking, but NPC Luo Yu and I have absolutely no connection whatsoever. It's all just a coincidence!" KP Luo Luo sighed somewhat helplessly and spoke up.

Hearing KP Luo Luo's words, the group chuckled knowingly, their understanding left unsaid.

"Alright, let's not waste any time and start discussing. I never thought this third promotion game would be so challenging. Our beloved Call of Cthulhu has turned into an RPG game," Ji Wu said somewhat resignedly.

Liu Xing shook his head, disagreeing with Ji Wu's assessment. "Ji Wu, you're mistaken. Actually, these five missions in Blood Howl Town can't be solved with brute force. Ultimately, they require decryption and deduction."
