The Indescribable Diary

This time, the game got off to a good start. At least it did not cause trouble on the map for Yu Yi. He found a tourist map of the city in the hotel.

Fannaya, the name of the city where Yu Yi was at, was located in New Zealand, an island country surrounded by the sea, close to Australia, and like Australia, there was the Indian Ocean on the left and the Pacific Ocean on the right. Although KP said that this time the monsters and enemies appeared in the TRPG were nameless species that he would not know about… But this place was surrounded by the sea. In a place like this, Yu Yi knew that Cthulhu would definitely come out.

The city was very big, which was why the tour would last for 30 days. The final result… KP made it clear in the mission brief that the setting was an unprecedented catastrophe, and he was the only one who could turn the tide in this disaster. All of a sudden, he wished there were 19 more investigators. This KP was totally causing him trouble on purpose!

It can be described as unprecedented in history. I’m afraid this task is not going to be easy like making all the stars to return to their own track.

“KP, what will be the consequences if this TRPG fails, and what will be the consequences of success? I’m asking about reality.”

Outside of the hotel, Yu Yi stood on the street in foreign land without any discomfort.

[Because it’s already a punishment TRPG or a private revenge, it has nothing to do with the real world, but… If you pass this TRPG, I will give you the title of Legendary Investigator.]

A Legendary Investigator…

Despite the fact that Yu Yi looked like a BUG, actually… There were species in COC called Legendary Investigator. If one opened the list of character cards, one could find that Legendary Investigator had so many magic tricks and props, spells and books that even the charts couldn’t fully accommodate all of them. However, the sanity value of a Legendary Investigator was generally very low.

Legendary Investigators had basically survived several TRPGs. If this mission could be completed and KP really gave him such a title… In the future, he might be able to build up his own team and become a boss. A change in title from oracle to Legend Investigator on his head, and instantly a group of experienced players would be scared to death. To be honest, judging by Yu Yi’s current experience and the record on his character card, he did not qualify to become a Legendary Investigator yet. To put it simply, he still had a long way to go.

For example, one of the four kings among all the Legendary Investigators, Randolph Carter, was a craftsmanship-loving smurf. He was known as the strongest human being in the original Cthulhu mythology. As for what happened to him… Um, let’s not talk about it.

[You don’t seem to be very interested in the title.]

“You tell me about it. I’m afraid that in every TRPG I will have to encounter the olden days after you give me this title.”

Well, I still want it though.

[Well, I’ll tell you what. If you really finish the task, I’ll give you access to Black Pharaoh’s strange shop. This will not be opened until the belief value of the Naya camp is full. If I don’t remember wrong, you are now in Yuming’s camp, a third-party camp, thus you can’t be rewarded by joining other camps.]

Then, KP put forward a very attractive offer that made Yu Yi instantly full of power.

“Black Pharaoh’s strange shop? Isn’t it Naya’s dishonest shop? Although the items inside are good and not very expensive, there were remarks saying that because it is produced by the famous snitcher, the items might go wrong at a critical moment.”

Yes, it seemed to be this setting… Every Outer God or old camp would get a unique reward after the belief value was brushed up. For example, the reward of the Naya camp was a strange store, and Naya would even sell props that could expel itself. It was amazing. When Yogg’s belief was full, he would open the Touch of Truth, would gain access to the Door of Silver Key, and would not even encounter any knowledge-related checks.

[Well, that is a test version, the official version of the store is completely different now. Naya added a lot of strange things into it because she felt the old one is so boring. Let me show you.]

KP then switched on a strange interface. Just looking at it was like the illusion of being trapped in chaos.

Yu Yi reached out to operate in mid-air. He opened the panel, entered the interface, and a wave of ads jumped out, as well as a very loud BGM–”The largest game company in the universe”.

He closed the ad before the next picture and sentence popped up. Sexy white octopus girl…Yu Yi really did not have any interest in that, really!

At the top of the store, a free prop was hanging high, which seemed to be a daily special. Every day, a prop was on sale or even free, but this one was… Brilliant Tetragonal Trisoctahedron… Only a psychopath would buy this thing!

Pulling down the screen.

[Xia Tak’s big bargain… The winner will get… Glaaki.]

[The holiday sale is coming to an end. It’s now or never, don’t miss it! (it will end at 00:21:11)]

[* 1d6 sanity value only needs 1d6 friends.]

[* 2d6 sanity value + crowbar only needs 1d6+1 friend.]

[* 3d6 sanity value + engravings only needs 2d6+1 friend.]

[As long as you have so many friends…]

This is really a snitcher’s shop… They use “friends” as currency… I have very few friends…

“Snitcher’s shop live up to its reputation. KP, do I look like someone who can afford these?”

Yu YI found that his monetary unit was 2, and there were several things that could be purchased directly.

[Oh, Naya special offer. You won’t be able to get anything anyway. I gave you full permission to all the items in this shop. After all, buying is also part of the experience.]

“That’s not bad, but there doesn’t seem to be anything good. Or I can’t afford anything good.” He then bought a bottle of salted fish spray.

The next moment, a spark flashed and a bottle of spray appeared in front of Yu Yi.

Yogg Express… It came with door-to-door delivery.

He picked up the spray and sniffed it gently. A smell of rotten salty fish entered Yu Yi’s nasal cavity. It was indeed a salted fish spray…

[Ha! You actually bought something! Where the hell did you get the money?! Oh… By the way, you’ve had two instances, so you have two dollars. Forget it, it doesn’t matter if you buy a bottle of salted fish spray.]

KP froze for a moment, but after thinking about it… forget it. Anyway, a bottle of salted fish spray couldn’t stir up any waves.

[Xia Tak big bargain ends now. For our only customer today, congratulations on winning the lottery. The reward will be delivered later. You’re always welcome anytime, guest–Black Pharaoh]

[???]

[???]

A prompt suddenly appeared on the store interface, and Yu Yi and KP both felt confused.

What the heck was winning the lottery about?!
