Chapter 250: Wealth

Chapter 250: Wealth

A successful strike for the students.

Liu Xing, accompanied by his followers, left the school alongside the enthusiastic regular students. According to Watanabe Ryusei's memory, Liu Xing brought his followers to a high-end apartment building next to Morimoto Academy and returned to his own home.

As a Cult Leader, Watanabe Ryusei's assets were quite substantial. After all, for some fanatical followers, wealth was inconsequential, and they had to dedicate everything to the church. Therefore, in a short span of a few years, Watanabe Ryusei's father had accumulated immense wealth and acquired numerous properties. Now, this entire apartment building belonged to Watanabe Ryusei.

After reviewing Watanabe Ryusei's memories, Liu Xing couldn't help but open his character card and check the asset balance: 5,000,000,700...

"Yes, five billion dollars. I never thought I'd become a billionaire," Liu Xing self-mockingly remarked in his mind.

Being a billionaire, Watanabe Ryusei wouldn't treat himself poorly. He immediately opened up the top floor of the luxury apartment, creating a spacious room to accommodate his followers.

Indeed, including Shizuka, all of Watanabe Ryusei's followers were now living in his home. They told their parents they were embarking on a high school entrepreneurship venture, as Watanabe Ryusei was now incredibly wealthy. Consequently, Watanabe Ryusei handed Shizuka and the others a million yen each, persuading their families to let them stay with him.

Ling Ishikawa and Ming Hanxing also moved into Watanabe Ryusei's home without hesitation. Due to their status as players, their actions were quite unrestricted. Although Ling Ishikawa had a family, they rarely interfered with her affairs, unless it was essential for the module's plot.

After assigning rooms, they all gathered in the living room, with Shizuka preparing dinner.

"The current situation is quite clear. The next target of the Red-Clothed Female Ghost is Teacher Honda Tetsuya. It's highly likely that she intends to take him to the swimming pool behind the old school building and kill him. After all, that's the only place in the old school building area associated with water. So, my plan is to buy several cameras and set up surveillance around the pool," Liu Xing, as the leader, began.

As a second-generation rich kid, Suneo Gokawa was confident in this area. "Leader, leave this to me. I know a good security company. They have these excellent miniature monitors with high-quality video and HD night vision capabilities. These monitors even support real-time video recording upload, so the chances of losing footage are minimal. I think these miniature monitors are perfect for our needs."Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile, "Very well, Suneo. Price is not an issue, but you must ensure quality."

Suneo Gokawa nodded earnestly, "No problem, Leader. You can trust me on this. That security company has been wanting our order for a while, and I should be able to easily negotiate for a batch of these miniature monitors for free. If everything goes as planned, we should have them in three days, which will allow us to set up in time for the return to school."

"Excellent. However, Suneo, don't forget to continue stirring up the students' resistance online. Keep the pressure on the school, and don't give them a chance for public relations!" Liu Xing smiled as he spoke.

Suneo Gokawa nodded and went to the side to make a phone call, contacting his acquaintances.

At this point, Ling Ishikawa shared her thoughts, "Leader, I think we should investigate the identity of this Red-Clothed Female Ghost. I believe her identity is not ordinary."

Mi Go's wings were designed for high-speed travel in the etheric substances of outer space, but they were less effective in Earth's atmosphere compared to the vacuum of space.

According to the Cthulhu RPG Game's lore, Mi Go had established numerous colonies in various parts of Earth, and their appearances varied depending on the region. For example, in Nepal, they took on the form of large apelike creatures, famously known as the Himalayan Yeti.

Mi Go had landed on Earth during the Jurassic period and engaged in battles with the Ancient Ones, Yithians, Flying Hydras, and other races. They eventually gained control of the Northern Hemisphere and began setting up mining outposts to extract a unique mineral never before found on their home planet.

Mi Go had a strong inclination towards advancing technology and had achieved remarkable feats. They even possessed some dark technologies typically exclusive to the Great Old Ones, surpassing most other races in this regard. For instance, they had created an immature Great Old One, Gadamon, from the seeds of Azathoth; they crafted the Radiant Dodecahedron, an item with unique properties related to Nyarlathotep's incarnations; and they had established a network of portals, linking their numerous outposts.

As an upper-tier race, Mi Go were immensely powerful mythical creatures, seldom encountered even in the Cthulhu Mythos. Most importantly, they harbored a hostile attitude towards humanity, typically killing humans on sight.

Liu Xing was incredibly curious about how Ming Hanxing knew a Mi Go.

Facing Liu Xing's inquisitive gaze, Ming Hanxing explained, "It's a matter of fate when it comes to my friend. Once, during my travels, I saw him being pursued by a group of miners. I helped him escape, and that's how we became friends."

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, understanding Ming Hanxing's implication. Miguel Copus was likely not a true Mi Go but an artificial human created by them, with a human brain transplanted into an artificial body. Mi Go's expertise in biotechnology and surgery allowed them to craft humanoid bodies indistinguishable from real humans, complete with the ability to extract human brains intact for transplantation or storage in specialized containers.

Miguel Copus probably had his brain transplanted into an artificial body by the Mi Go and was then assigned to perform mining work. Eventually, he managed to escape the Mi Go's mining outpost and was rescued by Ming Hanxing. As an artificial body crafted by the Mi Go, Miguel Copus likely possessed superior physical attributes compared to ordinary humans and possibly had some unusual abilities, such as invisibility. Therefore, as a private investigator, his capabilities were likely formidable.

On a side note, Mi Go had mining machines capable of causing earthquakes, which made their presence in an earthquake-prone country like the Island Nation quite fitting in a Cthulhu context.

"Very well, Teacher Ming, please contact Mr. Miguel. Let him thoroughly investigate what those cultists are up to. We must strive to eradicate the Deep Sea Gospel Society completely this time!" Liu Xing said with seriousness.

Ming Hanxing nodded and smiled, "I knew you would say that, Leader. I've already contacted my friend, and he has agreed to begin tracking and investigating our school's principal. We should have preliminary results by tomorrow."

Liu Xing and the others continued to discuss casually, realizing that they didn't have much to discuss at the moment. After all, they had very little information in hand, making it challenging to draw any meaningful conclusions.

At that moment, Nobita furrowed his brow and said, "Leader, it seems like the student council president, Lu Tianya, is investigating you. Several classmates from our class have been called to the student council by Lu Tianya, and he's been asking about you."

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, surprised that he had caught the attention of Lu Tianya, and it seemed that Lu Tianya's impression of him wasn't favorable.
