Cathulhu Online, MUNYA!

Chapter 353 – Cat Dad's Grandfather Counterattacks!

Many mass-produced versions of equipment and weapons were enough to fill the Slave Dungeon's treasure room. However, aside from the flying sword that Xiaomao needed, he didn't spare a gaze at the gears.

After all, the clothes and gears of Wei Feng and Wei Xiong were more compatible with him.

Xiaomao had tried various game equipment with his human form once. Unfortunately, all of them blocked his Qi pathway, hindering his aura and external Qi flow.

On the other hand, clothes and armor from Wei Feng and Wei Xiong enhanced his Qi circulation. Xiaomao's Dao Avatars could also wear a copy of the clothes whenever he put them on, which boosted their performance and domain abilities. But when Xiaomao didn't wear anything, all avatars came out in their default appearance and clothes.

In short, the equipment would be donated to the dungeon mobs that could use them. Party Queen, Gata, and the other immortals might find them useful.

Since Madoka didn't stop bragging about her experience in finance and Border Town management, Xiaomao entrusted the common, uncommon, rare, and junk items to Madoka. She promised that she could exchange these items for a million PACT with ease. As for the cultivation resources, Xiaomao chose not to sell them so that he could boost the stats of Shepherd and others.

As Xiaomao completed his objective, he suggested the group withdraw and go home.

Alice and Madoka tagged along with the group as they were now Xiaomao's slaves. The scylla goddess took the lead and guided the team out of the border town.

No guards or succubi dared to block their way when they saw Madoka. Everybody trembled in fear and receded even though they desired Xiaomao's genes.

When they got outside, Alice paused as she noticed a lurking monster. A kilometer away from the border checkpoint, the five-headed hydra was sitting there, staring at the border town's entrance.

"Senior, the hydra is here."

As Alice and Madoka had been working together for centuries, they were familiar with this situation. From time to time, a strong monster followed travelers and loitered in the area to hunt stray visitors of Border City. It was their job to vanquish these creatures and clear the path for the travelers and guests.

However, most of the time, this task was entrusted to Medusa or Alice. Madoka rarely helped unless the opponent was a half-step deity.

"Don't worry, kid. I'll take care of the fool."

Madoka cackled and winked at Xiaomao. As she tried to show off to her master, she volunteered for the job.

She lifted her tentacles and pushed.

BOOM

With just one push, the giant scylla swam a kilometer instantly. She appeared directly in front of the hydra.

Xiaomao, Undine, and Nymph looked ahead. Although the seafloor was dimly illumined, the trio could clearly see far ahead. They saw how Madoka's countless python tentacles coiled around the hydra's heads and snapped its necks off.

The severed heads soon regenerated, but the python tentacles and wolves overwhelmed them. Within a minute, Madoka's servants devoured the creature alive and ended its life.

One of Madoka's snakes carried crystal that they got from the hydra in its mouth. She rushed back to Xiaomao to report her achievement right away.

"Master, I've found the hydra's heart for you."

The crystal was at least five meters tall. As for its diameter, Xiaomao roughly guessed that it should be about the same size as its height. The snake spat the crystal and twitched its tongue.

Xiaomao gazed at the crystal, hoping to check its detail and status.

DING

Suddenly, a global announcement distracted Xiaomao and everyone nearby.

<Hello, this is Solomon, your new CEO of Pangu Universe Incorporate. I'm pleased to announce that new patches have been launched. I hope that the adventurers here are having fun!>

"Solomon, munya?"

Xiaomao's right eyebrow twitched. He had a bad feeling about this.

[What's that sound, master, munya?]

Uber, aka the sword spirit, heard the global announcement. Nymph, Undine, Alice, and Madoka could also clearly see the system panels and hear the old man's voice.

Xiaomao squinted his eyebrows. Although strong immortals here were capable of hearing the global announcements, not all of them could see the messages. But now, Xiaomao noticed that many message windows appeared in front of his companions and the bodyguards.

Mermen and mermaids gazed at the message windows in confusion. It was their first time seeing something out of the norm as most game messages were lifeless and cold.

"Solomon. The Netherworld Realm's king, munya."

[Is he stronger than you, munya?]

"Obviously, munya."

Everybody paid attention and waited for Solomon's announcement.

<I also have a message to Player Xiaomao. If you're hearing or seeing this, you should reconsider my offer. This is your last chance to join us. If you don't reply within a week, I shall withdraw all my blessings and hunt you down myself.>

pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 "Shit, munya."

Solomon seemed mad. Xiaomao had no idea what angered him so.

<Now, adventurers, I'm sorry to inform you that the latest patch contains some major bugs. The glitches can potentially delete your game characters and the hard work that you put into the game.>

"Hmm?"

Xiaomao pursed his lips. So far, Xiaomao hadn't encountered any major glitches or bugs. In fact, how could there be glitches in real life? After all, the game world was a real-world somewhere in the universe.

<The glitches usually happen if you join the Mermaid Kingdom Faction, the Chaos Demon Faction, or the Beast Tribe Faction. Therefore, we have decided to close these factions for the time being. From tomorrow onward, all guilds will not be able to choose these factions as your patron or liege.>

"… There you go, munya."

Xiaomao rolled his eyes. This was clearly the ploy of Pangu and Solomon to prevent players from joining Xiaomao's side. He was not surprised.

<Although our game is imperfect, we strive to give you the best experience. Here is a small teaser of the next patch – We will introduce a new feature "World Jump" to every player. Players will be able to transfer their characters to another server or world if they're not satisfied with their current environment!>

Xiaomao had expected this. In his previous life, this feature was introduced after the Heavenly Dao Patch, which would appear after the Landlord Patch.

'If I remember correctly, that World Jump feature will automatically merge the player game characters with their real bodies. That is the start of the superhuman uprising period, but that is irrelevant to me now. I don't live on Earth anymore.'

Since Xiaomao couldn't use his former life as a reference anymore, he sighed and continued to listen to the changes.

<And the last teaser, we will open new servers soon!>

"HUH?!"

That was new. The fourth server never existed in Xiaomao's previous life.

<The new server, the W-0, aka newbie planet, will restrict the level of all players to be under level 100 to provide the best environment for the new players. After the players graduate from the newbie planet, they can raise their levels over 100. But that is not all. Since the old servers are crowded with many overpowered immortals and deities, we will add W-0-1, W-0-2, W-0-3, and so on. The higher the number, the higher ceiling that your level can be.>

"Crap."

It wasn't hard to guess Solomon's intention. He was creating a new environment for new players so that he could brainwash them all. Without the influence of Mu-Nyang, the Cathulhus, or their allies in the new worlds, those players would soon convert to either the Pangu Church Faction or Solomon Faction.

<As for the old servers, we will rename them to Immortal-1, Immortal-2, and Immortal-3 respectively, and add more sub-servers. The minimum requirement to stay on these planets is level 1,000 and higher. Players whose level is lower than the requirement will be transferred to the newly created servers according to their level range, including the NPCs!>

Undine, Nymph, Alice, and Madoka's expressions changed. This update implied that Solomon would separate everybody according to their level range. Judging from Solomon's cunning trait, he might come up with small brackets, such as level 1,000 to 1,999 brackets, or level 2,000 to 2,999 brackets. With this move, all Xiaomao's allies would be forced to scatter, weakening their dungeon in the process.

Everyone's mood turned sour. They glared at the message windows, cussing and cursing Solomon.

"THIS IS DIRTY!"

"DAMN CHEATER!"

The foul-mouth women, Alice and Madoka, were enraged. They just found their true love, but Solomon wanted to separate them right away.

Xiaomao's fur turned red. Like the others, he was angry as well.

"Let's rush home. We have to regroup and come up with a strategy, munya. I know a cathulhu that can teleport us between worlds. She might have a solution to this, munya."

Xiaomao referred to Mir, who could easily mass-teleport humans from Earth to the game world. If she could help, they might find a way to bypass the new patch's restrictions.

The counterattack of Solomon was dirty but efficient. Xiaomao was now wary of his step-grandfather.
