Cathulhu Online, MUNYA!

Chapter 147 – Cat Dad’s Real Body is in Game!

“Hi, munya.”

“…”

Lucky raised her nose and sniffed. She slowly walked toward him and smelled his body odor.

Xiaomao awkwardly stood there, allowing her to smell him.

A minute later, Lucky licked his face, “Master! Your transformation is superb! I almost didn’t recognize you!”

Xiaomao let out a sigh of relief. At least, Lucky remembered him. However, he still worried about the panicking cats in the room.

“Lucky, I-“

Before Xiaomao could even finish his sentence, the game system prompted him with a red alert message.

DING

<DETECTING ANOMALY!>

<WARNING! YOU ARE USING AN UNAUTHORIZED THIRD-PARTY PROGRAM!>

<WARNING! YOU HAVE LOGGED IN WITH AN UNAUTHORIZED GAME CONSOLE!>

It was a hacking detection program that always booted and banned hackers from the game.

As Xiaomao was forcefully sent into the game by Mu-Nyang, he had no idea what to do against this system.

Suddenly, the rainbow manual shot out from Xiaomao’s chest. It spread and sucked in all the red windows in front of Xiaomao. A second later, it spat the windows out, but the game panels turned blue.

The messages also changed.

DING

<You have learned a new add-on skill – Invisible Karma!>

<You have unlocked a special feature – World Jump!>

<You have unlocked a special feature – Character Switch!>

The mysterious karma skill returned. This time, all details were displayed in Xiaomao’s game panels.

.

Invisible Karma

Karma is an exclusive ability of sages and entities. Chaos Demons, Chaos Seraphims, Pangu, and Mazinger Sages all have different karmic power and reign above all mortals and immortals. Only sages and entities may bestow this type of power to mortals or immortals. You are also one of the luckiest mortals in this universe.

By having invisible threads of karma, no sages, deities, or entities other than Mu-Nyang can read or tamper with your karma.

Skill Type: Add-On, Passive

Rarity: Myth

Requirement: Miao Xiaomao Only.

Effect: This skill has the following effects;

– No one but Mu-Nyang can read your past, present, and future karma.

– No one but Mu-Nyang can tamper or remove your existence from this universe.

– Your karma threads cannot be detected by all search, detection, or karmic abilities.

– No law or domain abilities can harm your karma threads.

– Unlock Karma Inventory Slots and override the forced drop rules of the game – All evolution materials can be stored in special inventory slots, which are hidden inside your soul. No item can be stolen from this inventory or dropped from your body. Retain all effects of the evolution materials.

– Override the matrix authority and digital influence – No administrators, moderators, developers, programmers, or non-living being in the game world can find your data in their database or tamper with your game character.

.

From a gamer’s point of view, this passive add-on skill didn’t deserve the mythical rarity as the only useful perk was the additional inventory slots.

However, Xiaomao paid attention to the karma effects. Since it was related to high-end abilities and skills, he believed that it might be useful after he reached Cernun’s level.

Moreover, having immunity against the admins’ and moderators’ power was a nice perk to have, considering that Nian and Pangu’s men were managing the game from Earth. Although they could still spy on him through NPCs and other players, this passive ability bought time for him to grow and get stronger.

Xiaomao checked the new feature next as the new game panel kept flashing to get his attention.

It was a character selection menu. Currently, there were two selectable characters.

The first character was the catopus avatar. As for the other, it was his real body. Under the character list, a text box showed the explanation of how this menu worked.

.

Character Switch

You may switch your character at any moment without a penalty. Each character has its independent status, skills, and attributes.

In case you die, you will be forced to switch characters, but you have the option to activate the World Jump feature.

.

Xiaomao pressed on his catopus avatar and activated it right away. He transformed into a white catopus with black dots, resembling Mu-Nyang.

WHOOSH

Xiaomao’s consciousness remained the same. No side effects occurred other than the changes in eyesight.

After turning into the catopus form, Xiaomao rechecked the stats of his human body.

.

Name: Xiaomao

Rarity: Common

Race: Human

Class: Regressor

Class Skill: None

Racial Skill: None

Add-On Skill: Invisible Karma

Synchronization Rate: 30%

.

Everything was pathetic. His attributes were also weaker than his game character as it inherited only 30% of the total stats.

Xiaomao glanced at the Sync Rate. It seemed that the higher rating, the better the status attributes.

Under the image of Xiaomao’s real face, there was a description of this character.

.

This character synchronizes with the game character (Xiaomao). Increasing the game character’s strength will decrease the synchronization rating. However, using this real body for a long time can increase its synchronization rating.

Note: You can only use this character in the World Jump feature.

Note (2): This character may use game character’s skills and spells if the synchronization rating is above 70%.

.

It didn’t say much, but it explained how synchronization ratings worked.

He looked at the World Jump menu next.

The window displayed several planets in the menu. By hovering the cursor on one of the planets, the game menu showed the details of that world.

Currently, only two planets were selectable. The other worlds were locked for an unknown reason, and there was no hint of how to unlock them.

As Xiaomao had seen World Three’s game description before, he checked the familiar-looking blue world, which was Earth, curious about the game’s description of the real world.

.

Divine Theocracy Earth

This planet was created and governed by Pangu. This world consists of 70% water, and it contains basic substances for mortal ecology systems. No Qi source is on this planet, so no mortal can become a cultivator without external interference or Pangu’s authorization.

Human is the dominating species, and their specialties are science and technology. Their main weapons are guns, explosives, and long-range missiles.

Compatible Races: Non-Magical Species

Incompatible Races: Fairy, Elf, Spirits

Suitable Level Range: 1 – 200

Pros: Best nurturing ground for mortals and non-magical creatures. It is protected by Pangu’s apostles and Pangu Priests, so no immortals and cultivators can invade this place. However, some cultivators are still lurking around. You need to be very lucky to find one among the public.

Cons: Human society is complex and hypocritical. Criminals are leading countries, but they are imposing strict laws against criminals. High intelligence is required to be successful in this world.

.

‘What the hell?’

Xiaomao was amused. The game system named the world Divine Theocracy Earth, which sounded silly. In addition, it revealed that Earth belonged to Pangu, which was bad news. However, the clue was enough for Xiaomao to connect the dots.

‘Pangu creates game worlds. Gamers become superhuman. Wait, Pan Xian used to give an interview that he created the game to power up superhumans to battle against invaders, but Pangu Church wants to brainwash humanity… AH! So, that’s why they’re so pissed after I interrupted the Pangu Cultists! And also, my status as a regressor is a threat to them?’

Puzzles seemed to fit together, and Xiaomao got a general idea of what Pangu and Pan Xian were doing.

“Master, are these your new slaves?”

Before Xiaomao could explore the new game features and the conspiracy further, Lucky caught Nyanko and Mama Cat. She carried them to him.

Xiaomao stopped thinking. He looked around and found Mir, who was nudging her face against his.

Mir licked Xiaomao’s ears and fur, “You smell exactly like my lord, mew!”

“Huh?”

Strangely, Mir could talk. He looked at her, but she ended up licking his face. Her fishy breath dizzied him.

“Mir, I know you like me, but can you stop licking me for a second, munya?”

“Even your voice sounds like Mu-Nyang, mew!”

Mir lost it. She hugged him with her paws and continued licking the fur behind his back.

Xiaomao’s fur got wet because of Mir. He stopped worrying about the orange kitty and gazed at Lucky.

NYA! (Papa, the dog is going to eat me!)

HISS! (UNHAND ME, MUTT!)

Unlike Mir, Nyanko and Mama Cat still meowed normally.

“Let them go, munya. They’re my family.”

“Oh, okay,” Lucky put them down. She giggled and petted Mama Cat, but the black cat scratched Lucky’s hand and hissed.

The gnoll girl was unharmed. As if Lucky had found it fun, she hugged Mama Cat and kissed her.

HISS! (HOOMAN, GET ME OFF THIS MUTT!)

Meanwhile, Nyanko hid behind Mir and Xiaomao, shivering in fear.

Nya (Papa, I’m scared. I don’t like her smell.)

“…”

Looking at their interaction, Xiaomao facepalmed and sighed. He took his time to catch some breaths.

.

Everything spiraled out of control because of Nian’s men and agents. Even Mu-Nyang revealed himself to be a mysterious monster that knew about his previous life and the future. Fortunately, he and his cats survived the ordeal.

After the long hectic meeting between the three cats and Lucky, everybody finally calmed down.

Mir adapted to the situation the fastest. She now sat on Lucky’s shoulder, acting like her boss.

Mama Cat and Nyanko always positioned themselves behind Xiaomao as they were still wary of Lucky. As for the gnoll girl, she stopped teasing the cats.

Lucky put on her clothes and armor, and she called Peter and John to the room.

The two new retainers of Xiaomao arrived, but they grinned from ear to ear. They glanced back and forth between Xiaomao and Lucky as if they understood what happened last night.

Xiaomao rolled his eyes as he didn’t want to talk about it. He distributed spirit stones to John, Peter, and Lucky. Each retainer received 100 spirit stones.

“I was thinking. Instead of boosting my level alone, I’m boosting your level and stats as well, munya. Now, use the spirit stones and raise your level. Once you’re done, we’re going to the Labor Guild and the local market to sort our inventory, munya!”
