Dice In The Darkness: Cthulhu Calls

Chapter 270: Is Wang Qi Dead?

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, surprised that the last scene he witnessed turned out to be a favor from KP Fangs.

Nonetheless, Liu Xing considered this favor to be quite valuable. At the very least, he now knew that OkoHayato was a member of the Shadow Clan. This revelation made Liu Xing reevaluate his collaboration with OkoHayato. Of course, Liu Xing was also curious about one thing: why hadn't OkoHayato informed the Shadow Clan about Juri Sonoda's existence? According to the information provided by KP Fangs, the Shadow Clan should still be hunting Juri Sonoda. Therefore, as a member of the Shadow Clan, OkoHayato must have been aware of Juri Sonoda's situation.

This was a matter worth pondering.

"Alright, you now have one minute of free conversation time, and then I will send you back to the real world," KP Fangs announced. "But before that, I have something to inform you. You've all been listed as candidates for promotion by the system. Once you complete the next module, you will begin the promotion module. The requirements are the same as for advancing from the Shoggoth Region to the Ghoul Area. If you wish to advance from the Ghoul Area to the Hound of Tindalos Area, you must complete two out of three promotion modules. If you fail or die in a promotion module, your card will still be torn, so be prepared."

Liu Xing nodded, surprised at how quickly he was advancing to another promotion module. He had thought that after failing in the previous module, his standing with the system would drop significantly, making promotion modules a distant prospect. However, regardless of the circumstances, this was a good thing. To escape the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall more quickly, he needed to reach higher-level gaming areas, which would allow him to earn points faster.

But this time, the promotion requirements were more stringent. Failing in a promotion module this time would truly mean the end.

"Leader, it seems that I won't be able to join you in the next module," Ming Hanxing said with a smile. "But I hope we can all complete the next module together. The three of us have a high chance of advancing together, as we know each other well, and our cooperation is efficient."

Yin En nodded in agreement and said to Liu Xing with a smile, "Liu Xing, when we return to reality, let's discuss when we should start the next module. But if possible, let's do it as soon as possible. Although I have enough points to revive in a module, if I revive my character card, I won't have a chance to join you in the promotion module. My character card is still in China, and I can't contact you."

"So, I'd like to start the new module tomorrow. This will allow my character card to level up a bit. I think I can learn some spells in the next module if I complete the World Mission. This will give my character card a significant power boost, and it will be more useful in the promotion module. Besides, from what I've heard, during the promotion module from the Shoggoth Region to the Hound of Tindalos Area, we can only use one character card, and the rest will be frozen, even if they are in torn card status. The revival countdown will be locked until after the promotion module ends."

Before Liu Xing could respond, KP Fangs sent him back to reality once again.

Back in the real world, Liu Xing hadn't fully regained his senses when he received a phone call from his father, asking him to attend a banquet that evening. It turned out that one of Liu Xing's cousins was getting married, and the banquet was conveniently located nearby. Liu Xing agreed to attend and decided to go downstairs to withdraw some cash for a gift.

Of course, before leaving, Liu Xing shut down his computer and used his phone app to contact Yin En.

As he was about to purchase the gift, Liu Xing overheard a middle-aged man next to him who was buying cigarettes talking to his companion. "Did you hear about the murder case near the sports institute yesterday?"

Sports institute, student, organization.

Hearing these words, Liu Xing suddenly thought of Wang Qi, who had participated in the Castle module with him.

Thinking about it, Liu Xing couldn't help but strike up a conversation with the middle-aged man. "Excuse me, is the student you're talking about named Wang Qi?"

The middle-aged man looked at Liu Xing with some surprise, thought for a moment, and said, "The news didn't specify the name, but the student seemed to have the last name Wang. Young man, from the way you're talking, do you know the student who committed suicide?"

Liu Xing reluctantly nodded and said, "It's highly likely it's him. We met as friends one evening a while back in the real world, and during our meeting, he wanted me to join an organization, but I didn't agree."
