Chapter 123: Jigu

At first glance, Li Gou Dan's appearance and the Elder Sign tattoo on the back of his right hand were strikingly identical to Wu Lei's, which baffled Liu Xing the most. Even twins wouldn't resemble each other so closely, as there are no two identical leaves in this world.

However, considering Li Gou Dan's accent, his demeanor towards Liu Xing, and Wu Lei's alibi during this period, it was clear that Li Gou Dan wasn't Wu Lei. Furthermore, Li Gou Dan was an NPC in this promotion game, not a player! Besides, Liu Xing wasn't even sure if Wu Lei had joined this Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall.This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

Thus, Liu Xing began to suspect that the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall was monitoring his every move in the real world. From his initial identity as a doctor to his current involvement in a 'battle royale' game, Liu Xing always felt scrutinized by the Game Hall.

Moreover, Liu Xing hadn't forgotten what KP Cao and others had told him. He had gained some fame in the Ghoul district's KP circle, indicating that the Game Hall wasn't just cold programming but included 'internal employees' capable of emotional and social interactions. This led Liu Xing to fear that he might have attracted the attention of a high-ranking individual within the Game Hall.

But Liu Xing quickly dismissed this thought. He didn't see himself as a chosen one or a main character of any sort. Why would a significant figure from the Cthulhu Role-Playing Game Hall go out of their way to target him? It must be a coincidence.

Liu Xing tried to convince himself of this.

"Liu Xing, how did it go?" asked Ai Mei and others, who had returned after seeing Liu Xing finish his conversation with Li Gou Dan.

Liu Xing shook his head and sighed helplessly, "Well, even though Li Gou Dan looks like my friend and even has the same tattoo on his right hand, rationally speaking, he can't be my friend."

Ai Mei and the others nodded in understanding, aware that without opening a Private Room, Liu Xing couldn't explain everything clearly.

Just then, Silvia loudly suggested, "Alright, since everyone's here, let's have dinner first and then go find Jigu."

When the 'big sister' spoke, the 'younger brothers' naturally followed.

After a hearty dinner, the group headed to the Graveyard.

Jigu appeared to be in his early twenties, pale with a frail figure and sparse hair, but his eyes were bright and alert.

"Silvia, and Second Auntie?" Jigu's voice was somewhat sharp.

Silvia nodded with a smile, "I didn't expect Mr. Jigu to know our names."

Jigu shook his head seriously, "In the teams of Blood Howl Town, there are only two female leaders – you and Second Auntie. I didn't expect you both to accept my commission together."

While speaking, Jigu pulled out a map from a box behind him.

"This is a rough map of the Graveyard. I have marked the potential locations of the item I seek in this exploration of the Graveyard," Jigu handed the map to Silvia.

As Silvia took the map, she suddenly exclaimed in surprise. Jigu's hand had turned into a claw! True enough, Jigu was beginning to transform into a Ghoul.

"Hehe, I might as well tell you the truth. I've been cursed by the Elder Ghoul. In three days, I'll completely become a Ghoul. I must find something in the Graveyard to break the Elder Ghoul's curse," Jigu said calmly.

However, Liu Xing noticed that Luo Cong, standing beside him, had a very odd expression.

"What's wrong, Luo Cong?" Liu Xing asked curiously.

Luo Cong glanced at Jigu and then whispered, "There's a rumor in Blood Howl Town that Jigu is not only gay but also only attracted to corpses!"

Suddenly, Liu Xing regretted his curiosity, feeling utterly unsettled.
