Chapter 103: News, Phone Calls, and Moving

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, feeling too drained to comment on the occasional lack of seriousness at the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall.

However, for a short, or rather, a long time, Liu Xing didn't believe he could afford the colorful character card. So, he pragmatically clicked to purchase the white character card.

"Congratulations to the player for purchasing a white character cardx1. This card comes with a bonus item, a special-effect adrenaline shot, worth 50 points. Using it can boost your strength and agility by 3d6 for one minute. After it wears off, your strength and agility will decrease by 1d6 for half an hour."

It was the same familiar synthetic voice.Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.

"It seems my luck isn't bad," Liu Xing muttered to himself. "The attributes of the white character card are somewhat low, but this special-effect adrenaline can provide a decent attribute boost for a short time. If used well, it should be quite effective."

After buying the white character card, Liu Xing closed the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall and opened stm, the world's largest online entertainment gaming center.

A couple of days ago, Wu Lei told Liu Xing about a very popular game on stm, suggesting they play it together when Liu Xing had time. After all, Liu Xing was famously skilled in college: always the sneaky camper in CSLiu Xing, using bizarre formations in FIFALiu Xing, and a sneaky jungler in League of LegendsLiu Xing...

So, Wu Lei thought Liu Xing would be perfect for this battle royale game.

After trying out the battle royale game, Liu Xing agreed with Wu Lei. It was indeed a perfect fit, as he quickly grasped the essence of the game - stealth tactics. He joyfully led Wu Lei to two victories before logging off to eat.

In the living room, Liu Xing switched on the TV, a habit from childhood of watching TV while eating. He didn't find the programs particularly interesting, but they made decent background noise.

"Liu Xing, I was wondering if you've joined any clubs in the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall?" Wang Qi asked enthusiastically from the other end.

Liu Xing frowned, realizing why Wang Qi had contacted him. "Uh, I'm already in a club."

Wang Qi paused before speaking, "Then, Liu Xing, would you consider switching clubs? The one I'm in is pretty good, and the leader takes great care of us newcomers."

"No thanks, my current club is quite good to me, so I don't plan on switching. You don't need to persuade me further," Liu Xing replied, knowing it was crucial to be decisive in these matters to avoid unnecessary complications.

Hearing Liu Xing's firm response, Wang Qi sighed resignedly, "Alright then, if you change your mind, just call me. Our club may not be high-level, but it's a local Rongcheng group, and most members are from here. It's a pity if you can't join, we could easily meet and interact."

Liu Xing understood why Wang Qi had reached out. Wang Qi had joined a local offline club in Rongcheng and was inviting him to join. However, Liu Xing, always cautious, was reluctant to have too much real-life contact with players from the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall. After all, players could bring items from the game into reality, and he feared the offline club could coerce him into handing over his in-game items.

"Never harbor ill will towards others, but always be on guard," was Liu Xing's motto.

After refusing another invitation from Wang Qi, Liu Xing decided to move, sensing that Wang Qi wouldn't give up on inviting him to join the offline club. Knowing Wang Qi might have learned his address, Liu Xing wanted to avoid the worst-case scenario.

Being action-oriented, Liu Xing quickly contacted his landlord, who was an acquaintance and his uncle owning multiple properties in CD.

After a brief conversation with the landlord, Liu Xing decided to move from Wuhou District to Qingyang District, not too far from Wu Lei's board game store. He had come to regard Wu Lei as his mentor and advisor.
