“How does the plot begin?”

Looking at the map, Yu Yi wandered aimlessly in the city.

After wasting three days in a hotel, he only found a nuclear bomb. Then he came out in a hurry to clean up all the negative BUFF from his body and got some sleep before his character starved to death or got dehydrated. In theory, it was the fourth day of the game, and it had been four hours in reality. Although Yu Yi didn’t know how the system extended one hour to 24 hours, now that the instance could be materialised in the game, one probably didn’t have to think about the method?

Now the city where Yu Yi was located was called Fannaya, which was located in New Zealand in the Pacific Ocean. In this exotic city, Yu Yi was walking around like a headless fly. Although KP said that he would let him break the rules, even if he wanted to break the rules in this kind of city, Yu Yi would not be able to without any help. There was no information at all.

After consulting a few travel books, there was no recent grand festival. This was a city where crime did not exist. Although KP said there was an evil plan brewing in the city that would change the world and turned it upside down, Yu Yi really couldn’t find any clues. Police station? No one else was allowed inside. The main square? There was nothing unusual. Church? There were all statues of angels and Jesus. Obviously, this was the territory of Christianity and Catholicism. Yu Yi did not know where to start.

“In this case, I can only move forward bit by bit.”

Yu Yi, who did not choose the skill to use the library, stared at the municipal library. He wanted to go in and look it up. If he was lucky, it might be interesting if he could find the Laleier book or the Book of Deathly Souls like Huahua.

[Nonsense. Why would I give you thirty days then?]

The malice of KP spread from beginning to end, and he already felt it as soon as he started to act.

“If I do nothing, what will happen to me later?” Sitting on the chair in the park and drinking the mineral water he bought, he looked up at the dazzling sun in the sky. It was not green. It was safe for the time being.

[Then you will meet at least three of The Great Old Ones.]

The malice has come out completely!

“Three! And yet you said at least! Do you mean there could be more?”

Yu Yi stood up from the chair in fear. God! I might meet three of The Great Old One! Do you think my sanity value is that high? Meeting at least three means… Do I at least have to go through 3d100? 1d100 is a dead end you know!

[Well, don’t worry so much. I’ll let you know when the Evil God comes out.]

That’s what you said on the Floating Island! But I did not know what the creature was until I abducted it to my home.

Forget it, the KP originally came with the purpose of tearing my card, so it was almost impossible to talk any sense to him. He should rely on himself. This game was experimental and that reward was really tempting. Although it was an instance for 20 people, Yu Yi felt that he could give it a try. What if he succeeded? Even though the chance was almost zero.

“Sure enough, KP is part of the game.” Biting his nails, Yu Yi’s resentment almost turned into an entity.

[I don’t think European players are qualified to say that.]

Obviously, KP’s complaint was no less than Yu Yi.

[Forget it, you spend your time like a headless fly. If you really can’t trigger the plot, I would have written this script for nothing.] KP suddenly revealed a shocking truth.

“What?! Did you write this script yourself?”

[Why, are you looking down on AI? I’ll give you some hints. After all, it took me some time to write it. If the plot cannot be fully developed, then my efforts will soon be in vain. You are lucky.]

Yes, that’s how it is.

COC’s TRPG was theoretically KP and investigators helping each other through difficulties, but for some reason, KP’s ideas were getting more and more distorted. Perhaps only when the investigators were kind-hearted that KP would act kind towards them too. The rest of the time, KP would almost think about how to deal with unruly players. Of course, there was another situation where KP would help investigators as much as possible. That was when the script was written by KP themselves and implemented for the first time. How to put it… After all, it took a lot of efforts to figure out the script. If the players were destroyed at the beginning, wouldn’t it be all in vain? Athis time, in order to satisfy his desires, KP would try his best to help investigators tide over the early difficulties to unfold the script and the plot. Of course, this meant one would encounter many troubles in the later stage… Anyway, Yu Yi’s KP had already said that there were at least three of The Great Old One.

[. rd = 63. You passed the luck check.]

Then KP fell silent.

Yu Yi stood silent for a while. Nothing had happened. What was that luck thing for?

This fellow is unreliable. I’m all on my own again. Next stop, I’ll try the underground amusement park. What if it’s a snakeman’s script?

He reached out, called a taxi, and told the driver the address. After a friendly conversation with the driver, the car drove to the west of the city. The car quickly drove into an almost uninhabited path, but Yu Yi didn’t care. After all, he really needed to go through such an almost abandoned road to the underground amusement park.

This road seemed to be called Linjing street, an abandoned road.

It used to be a very popular street, but it slowly got abandoned because of the relocation of the main city. Now only a few pedestrians and cars passed by. Linjing street might be abandoned completely after a while. As for how long it would take, no one knew the answer. Would it be a year? Or ten years? After all, the news that Linjing street was going to be torn down had been circulating for a long time.

The car turned right from the street and went straight for about 47 minutes before arriving at the entrance of Linjing street. From the entrance, it was true that Linjing street was empty.

Broken sidewalks, dilapidated streetlamps, and cracked asphalt roads were historical traces left by the years. There were only a few people walking on the sidewalk. Basically no cars drived through, while the big trees on both sides of the road were very luxuriant. This was the only thing that was lively here.

One side of the sidewalk was a high wall. What was behind the high wall? In the past, there had been different opinions. Some people said that behind the high wall was a big factory. Some said it was a gymnasium, while others said it was a warehouse. But now, no one would even guess anymore, because no one would come here again. When the demolition began, everything here would turn to dust of history.

On the high wall, there were many pictures like children’s graffiti, which converged into one picture after another. Yu Yi viewed them all the way. Although the children did not draw well, the meaning of the painting was obvious. These paintings were like storybooks. There were comedies amd tragedies. It was difficult to imagine that this graffiti was drawn by children.

Because the road was cracked open, the taxi could only drive slowly. The driver chatted with Yu Yi about the history of the street. Yu Yi secretly wrote down the driver’s words since this street seemed suspicious, and he would inspect it later. Although he didn’t rule out the chance that this was just a smoke bomb released by KP.

It was strange that in the central area of the street, there were still traffic lights, and they were still in operation. At the red light, the driver stopped at the intersection.

“It’s strange. When did the traffic lights here start working again?”

Although there was no one here and no monitors, it was better to obey the traffic rules.

While the two were chatting, a young girl covered in black robes appeared out of nowhere. She ran to the side of the taxi, eagerly looked at the driver, and said, “Kind sir! Please help! I’m being chased by a bunch of people! Please help me!”

“Calm down. Calm down! Miss…You…”

As soon as the driver was about to say something, he saw several policemen coming out after her. The woman opened the door, grabbed the driver, and threw him out of the car. She sat on the driver’s seat and closed the door, completely ignoring Yu Yi who was still sitting in the back seat. The taxi galloped away, leaving the confused taxi driver and policeman behind.
