Chapter 180: Eldritch God Taketori!

At midnight, Liu Xing and his group finally arrived at Chen Wenbin's house.

Chen Wenbin's two-story building reminded Liu Xing of a house he had seen in an adult animation from his childhood. Don't get any wrong ideas; the adult animation was called "Crayon Shin-chan."

Yes, "Crayon Shin-chan" was indeed an adult animation, but when it was introduced in the country, it was misunderstood by many as a comedy animation.

"My house has two floors. The first floor has two bedrooms and a living room for accommodation. The second floor has a bedroom and a study room for accommodation. The study room can only be used as a single room. It's not early now, so let's arrange the rooms first," Chen Wenbin said as he opened the door with keys.

"I'll take the study room alone. I have a night vision device in my backpack, so I can observe the surroundings at night. You guys go in and allocate the rooms. I'll set up some alert devices around the house to check the surroundings," Yin En, who was walking at the end, stopped and said seriously.

So, Liu Xing and the other eight people entered the rooms. After a brief discussion, Yasaka Mashiro and Mian Gu Lu were decided to stay in the inner bedroom on the first floor, while Liu Xing and Watanabe Jiang would stay in the outer bedroom. Otonashi Takuya and Yoh Asakura would sleep in the living room, and the second-floor bedroom was for Gu Jun and Chen Wenbin.

This arrangement aimed to maximize Mian Gu Lu's safety. Yasaka Mashiro accompanied Mian Gu Lu in the safest inner bedroom on the first floor. The outer bedroom was guarded by Otonashi Takuya and Yoh Asakura, acting as "door gods."

Liu Xing and Watanabe Jiang stayed in the outer bedroom on the first floor, which allowed them to jump directly from the window to the yard on the second floor in case of an attack. This strategy provided a quick escape and allowed them to coordinate inside and outside. Most importantly, as a doctor, Liu Xing could provide immediate medical assistance if Mian Gu Lu faced any issues.

Liu Xing was puzzled. Why hadn't his character card changed? Did the number he rolled represent something unchangeable?

"Alright, let's discuss the next steps. The main quest has appeared, and we must stop the descent of this Eldritch God, Dark Life. Otherwise, if the Eldritch God destroys the world, we'll be left with no choice but to GG and tear up our cards with no chance of recovery," Yoh Asakura said, sounding a bit frustrated.

Chen Wenbin nodded, speaking seriously, "Yoh Asakura is right. Now we can only find a way to prevent the descent of Dark Life. The reason my character card has such a low SAN value is that in the last tabletop game, I was possessed by Yis People. I visited the era where Yis People existed and heard some strange information, including something that might be Dark Life or Eldritch God Taketori!"

Everyone looked at Chen Wenbin in shock. They hadn't expected Chen Wenbin's character card to be possessed by Yis People.

"Eldritch God Taketori. If I remember correctly, Taketori is a mythical figure in the oldest novel from the Island Nation, 'The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter.' It is said that in ancient times, there was an old man who cut bamboo and found a girl named Kaguya-hime inside. She grew into an adult within three months. Due to her exceptional beauty, she attracted proposals from nobles, and even the emperor came to force a marriage. In the end, Kaguya-hime ascended and disappeared," Gu Jun said, frowning.

Chen Wenbin nodded, saying seriously, "That's right, it's Taketori. However, this Taketori can only be considered the embryo of the Eldritch God. After Taketori ascended, Nyarlathotep discovered him because Taketori was an indigenous god of Earth and was in conflict with Nyarlathotep. So, Nyarlathotep erased Taketori's intelligence and let him wander in the universe."

"After some time, a young female Yis People suddenly disappeared while traversing spacetime. Other Yis People used various methods and found that this female Yis People had been possessed by Taketori. Due to the distortion of Taketori's divine power during spacetime travel, and recalling the injustice and resentment when Nyarlathotep erased his intelligence, Taketori fell and became the Eldritch God. According to Yis People's prediction, Eldritch God Taketori would eventually be reborn in a certain era and then destroy the planet it was on!"

Well, once again, Nyarlathotep was the scapegoat for this mess.
