Chapter 78: The Second Promotion Game

Chapter 78: The Second Promotion Game

After concealing the details about the promotion game and the old Taoist, Liu Xing shared the process of the Harvest Festival with Wang Qi.

"Ha, Liu Xing, your role-playing game is really interesting and fortunate. Although encountering the Formless Offspring, a rather powerful mythical creature, its limitations rendered it ineffective," Wang Qi said with a laugh.

Liu Xing smiled, nodding in agreement. He then informed Wang Qi about the vocal checks and combat skills. After all, this wasn't a well-guarded secret, and he hoped Wang Qi would continue to survive in the Cthulhu RPG Game.

For Wang Qi, learning about the combat skills was vital, especially given his physical prowess. If he could perform well in combat skill checks, his chances of success would be high, greatly enhancing his combat strength and survival odds.

"Liu Xing, thank you for sharing this crucial information. I'll immediately choose my Interlude Growth and start familiarizing myself with the combat skills," Wang Qi said excitedly.

Players needed to decide on their Interlude Growth before the next Cthulhu RPG Game began. If not, the system would "kindly" randomize three types of Interlude Growth for them.

Waving his hand nonchalantly, Liu Xing said, "It's nothing. The fact that we could meet again is a great fate, especially in a place as bizarre as the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall."

"Yeah, I just couldn't control my hands, which led me to this situation," Wang Qi said, nodding with regret.

Hearing this, Liu Xing felt a sense of resonance. He too had ended up in the fearsome Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall because he hadn't controlled his actions.

After chatting for a while, Liu Xing and Wang Qi exchanged phone numbers and then returned to their respective homes.This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

Back home, Liu Xing pondered over his life and recalled his meeting with Wu Lei, especially the advice given. He then unhesitatingly turned on his computer, clicked on the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall, and started matching for the promotion game! He was mentally prepared, deciding to focus all his efforts on the third game, preferring a short pain over a long one.

Due to it being morning, the matching for the promotion game was incredibly slow. After using the bathroom, washing his face, and drinking a bottle of ice-cola he bought from downstairs, the game... still hadn't started.

Touching his chin, Liu Xing wondered whether to cancel this match when he finally entered his second promotion game.

The start was the usual Interlude Growth settlement.

"Becoming an online novel author, without any incidents, gained the side job of online novel author, level 'Bottom-Tier Writer', earning an extra 1 credit point and 600 in additional income."

"Attending Island Nation Language training, without any incidents, gained the skill - Other Language: Island Nation Language 39."

"Exercising, without any incidents, improved four attribute points in total, Agility +3, Strength +1."

This Interlude Growth didn't bring any unexpected events. Fortunately, the "Attending Island Nation Language Training" could reach a maximum of 40 points, and Liu Xing scored 39 points, a stroke of incredible luck. This made him somewhat conceited—perhaps he should try to pass this second promotion game after all?

As usual, the surroundings blur for a moment, and Liu Xing finds himself in a small dormitory, sitting on a steel wire bed.

"Greetings, players, I am your dear friend, MC... uh, I mean KP Xiehong Tianzun. Of course, you can also call me Snail. It's incredibly lucky for you to encounter me in your second promotion game. Unless it's a matter of great importance, I tend to be lenient with players. However, I hope you players don't mess around too much with nonsensical tricks; otherwise, don't blame me for not giving you a chance." This KP sounds amiable and, if not lying, is one of the rare easy-going KPs in the Cthulhu RPG Game circle!
