Cathulhu Online, MUNYA!

Chapter 419 – Cathulhu's Nemeses Amassing Forces

"Welcome to my domain, my dragons."

In the Netherworld Realm's open-air palace, Solomon stood in front of 500,000 NPCs and players of Pandemonium Guild. The guild master, Bathin, stood behind Solomon and acted as his aide even though he was a lot weaker than other generals.

Liu Bei, Wei Yan, Jiang Wei, and Explorer were among the crowd. They puffed their chest in elation as they believed that they had joined the right faction.

Explorer glanced at everybody's level and titles. Then, he looked at his status menu.

Liu Bei, the Dragon Saint, Level 2,500

Jiang Wei, the Dragon Knight, Level 7,500

Wei Yan, the Bringer of Death, Level 9,999

Explorer, the Chosen One, Level 9,999 (12,000)

After joining the Pandemonium Guild, Bathin kept his promises. Everybody received dragon blood and learned their cultivation method. They were also blessed with countless spiritual fruits, essence stones, and spirit stones to boost their status attributes.

Even a timid guy like Explorer grew confidence in his abilities. He always mocked Butter Tank, Cherry Popper, and others in his mind whenever he saw his status menu.

"My dragons, as I promised, the universe domination is at hand. We have successfully weakened Mu-Nyang to the point that he has become powerless. Without his interference, we've secured the biggest opportunity that noone has ever achieved throuthout the history. Look at the sky above us!"

Solomon pointed at the sky and looked at the glittering stars in space. Countless colorful strings of karma gathered and flowed toward the boiling river at the center of their planet.

That was the river of karma, aka the Samsara River. As the current Samsara God, Meng Xin, could not reclaim his legacies, Solomon sealed the river and took control of it.

"That is the river of reincarnation. I have defeated and slaughtered the Meng Clan and the remnant chaos seraphims in that river. Now, we are controlling Hell and the river to rebirth! WE HAVE CONQUERED DEATH!"

The dragons and the players cheered. They sought immortality, and they believed they got what they wanted. However, that was just temporary. As long as Mu-Nyang existed, the universe and the Samsara River could be taken back anytime.

Thus, they needed to rebel and kill Mu-Nyang to make it permanent!

"One last obstacle hinders our journey, my dear dragons. And that obstacle is…"

Solomon turned around and created a massive screen in the sky. The screen showed the portraits of Xiaomao, Mao Miaomiao, Hiiro Narukami, Chase Sheffield, Bianca Dullahan, Seo Jungwoo, Lee Jinyong, Ma Moxi, and Zhuge Liang.

Strangely, Zhou Yu, Sima Yi, and James Huntsman weren't among them even though they had the protagonist class.

"Nine imbeciles got lucky and obtain the Protagonist Class – The Hero Class that shouldn't have existed! Mu-Nyang's hypocrite dogs are standing in the way of our true immortality!"

Liu Bei narrowed his eyes. He recognized Xiaomao.

The crowd looked up and memorized the faces. They were enraged as their ultimate wishes couldn't be completed because of them.

"But guess what? I have seized Pangu's dantian universe and extracted his memory. His knowledge is now mine, and I know exactly how we can bend the laws of the universe to create supreme classes for our brethren!"

Solomon waved his hands and pointed at Explorer, who was the strongest among the crowd.

"Please come up, child. Let me bestow you the new power and unlock your potential. You will become the first dragon god among the players!"

Explorer was elated while Liu Bei and others smacked the former's back, congratulating him. Explorer jumped up and got on the stage.

Solomon smiled at Explorer. He pulled out a dagger from his spatial ring and cut his fingertip. A drop of black blood came out and floated in the air.

"Drink it, child. You, the chosen one, deserve everything in the universe."

"Thank you, master. I shall do everything I can to fulfill your wishes!"

Explorer directed the drop of blood into his mouth. He swallowed it. Instantly, it was digested. The blood cells of the dragon king multiplied and took over Explorer's blood cells. Black blood replaced the red blood in his veins, and his skin turned black as a result.

Two pairs of dragon wings emerged from his back. A long dragon tail extended from the area above his buttock. Black dragon scales became the extra layer of defense over his outer skin, and two horns came out from Explorer's forehead.

A black string of karma came out from the Samsara River. It latched onto Explorer and merged with him. Then, countless centipedes from the river rushed out and charged at Explorer. However, they shrank and disappeared into his stomach as they all joined his dantian universe as his new followers.

DING

<You have satisfied the ascension ritual.>

<Your race has evolved! You are now Dragon Deity!>

<Your level cap has been increased to 99,999. Your level will be set to match your true strength.>

<Your level is now 12,000!>

<You have obtained a new class – Dark Hero!>

Explorer was on the verge of tears. He was grateful that Solomon had helped him so much.

"Thank you very much, master. I promise that I'll take those imbeciles down with my new power!"

"Good," Solomon was satisfied with Explorer's reactions. Thus, he gave him a mission.

Solomon waved his hand and opened a red wormhole.

"Go. Beyond this wormhole is the Game World Number 28. When you arrive on the other side, you will find Nero, Belial, and other demon dragon generals. Soon, those people in the portraits will raid that dungeon. Use your new power and cooperate with your colleagues to kill them all!"

"YES, MASTER!"

Without hesitation, Explorer turned toward the wormhole and jumped into it. However, the wormhole remained open.

After confirming that Explorer had departed, Solomon turned his attention to Liu Bei and his men. He smiled at them for a moment before he gazed at the crowd.

"WHO ELSE WANTS MY BLESSINGS?! WHO ELSE WISHES TO GAIN A NEW CLASS AND A NEW POWER!?"

"MEEEEE!!"

"ME, TOO!!"

The crowd went nuts. Even Liu Bei raised his both hands, hoping to get stronger.

| сom Solomon laughed and took his time, empowering everybody one after another. Everybody got the Dark Hero Class and was sent to the W-28's dungeon.

.

Hours later, Solomon returned to his quarter and slammed his butt on his chair. His expression was the opposite of how he appeared in public.

"Damn monkeys. You wasted my precious resting time-*COUGH*"

Solomon choked. He vomited a mouthful of blood as he still felt the aftereffect of Mao Miaomiao's abilities. Moreover, his instinct screamed that Mao Miaomiao would find him soon.

While Solomon was resting, Bathin knocked on the door.

"My lord. I have brought the two protagonists."

"Bring them in!"

Despite being exhausted, Solomon straightened his back and repaired his posture. His grim expression changed to a wide smile.

The doors were opened, and two men entered the room.

James Huntsman and Zhou Yu stood in front of Solomon. They inspected the demon lord's condition at first and knelt.

"Zhou Yu greets Lord Solomon," Zhou Yu maintained his pokerface.

"I'm James Huntsman… master."

On the other hand, Huntsman's eyes were filled with rage and distrust. He rudely stared at Solomon even though he knelt.

Solomon noticed that. He smirked, "Tell me, protagonists. I tried to kill you. Why do you want to join me?"

Zhou Yu glanced at Huntsman, ordering with his eyes to shut up. Then, he took the lead.

"We've discussed the issues, and we conclude that there must be some kind of misunderstanding between us. We are not your enemies. On the other hand, the protagonists that you want to kill are also our sworn nemeses. Our ancestors always said – The enemies of my enemy are my friends. This coincides with our current relationship. We're not supposed to fight each other and weaken our forces before we deal with our common enemies!"

Solomon inwardly laughed. He could guess what their goals were from a mile away.

"So, you want to borrow my forces to kill your nemeses?"

"On the opposite, Lord Solomon," Zhou Yu paused and firmly looked into his eyes. "We wish to help you. I'm a man of wisdom, and I have studied warfare. My insight can be of help to you if you wish to wage a large-scale war against Mu-Nyang's servants."

Solomon frowned. He was not interested in advisors since he believed in his intelligence and insight. Therefore, a strategist was unnecessary.

"Aside from your brain, what else do you have to offer?"

"My bloodline."

Zhou Yu closed his eyes and transformed into a phoenix. He ended up burning the entire house.

Instead of getting angry, Solomon widened his eyes and chortled, "A phoenix! HAHAHAHA! THIS IS JUST WHAT I NEED!"

Zhou Yu reverted to his human appearance. The flame repaired his clothes which were automatically equipped. Then, he cut his fingertip and extracted a drop of his blood essence.

The droplet of blood floated toward Solomon. Zhou Yu gazed at the blood and asked, "Will you trust me now?"

"Hahahaha! Of course! Since you've shown me your sincerity, I welcome you to my soon-to-be universe!"

"Thank you very much, my lord!" Zhou Yu bowed and hid his smirk. Everything went according to his plan.

'I've successfully infiltrated the Netherworld Realm. Once I gain access to the Samsara River, I can resurrect Sun Ce and his family. After that, I'll pit Solomon and Mao Miaomiao together and let them kill each other! Once Mao Miaomiao or Solomon died, I'll take their dantian and learn their secrets! With their memory and power, I can dominate the universe and hand it over to the Sun Family!'

Solomon inwardly sneered at Zhou Yu. He read the young man's karma memory and discovered the scheme right away.

'Planning to exploit my river and use me as a stepping stone for your universe domination? Too bad. The universe is mine. You can just stay by my side and serve as a portable heavenly fate crystal. When I'm that desperate for the crystal, I'll just kill you and devour your soul!'

Solomon stored the droplet of blood in his spatial ring as he was not ready to consume any weird medicine at the moment. He turned to Huntsman next.

"What about you? What do you have to offer?"

Huntsman stared at Solomon. Although he wanted to kill the old man and eat his soul, he had another idea.

"I've heard about the Antagonist Class from the game forum. I heard Pangu came up with it, but it was never made public. I want that class!"

"But you already have the protagonist class, though. Why do you want to become a villain?"

"I need to kill someone, and I need power. I want the additional perk of the Antagonist Class! Secondly, I want cultivation resources and a place to cultivate!"

"I asked you what you can offer, but you're one-sidedly demanding stuff from me. I'll rephrase my question since you're obviously an absolute buffoon. Why should I give you what you asked? What do you have for the exchange?"

James Huntsman scoffed. He uttered in an angry voice, "Miao Xiaomao's head!"

"Hohoh? Where is it, then?"

"Miao Xiaomao is still alive. I can't give it to you at the moment."

Solomon's expression changed. He was tired of Huntsman's bullshitery, "I take back my words. You're not an absolute buffoon but a retarded inbred monkey that doesn't understand a human's language."

Huntsman realized that he phrased his words wrong. He lowered his head, "Please give me power. In exchange, I'll personally hunt Xiaomao and other protagonists. If I fail, you can kill me!"

"…"

Solomon paused and glared at James Huntsman. He disliked the guy's attitude, but he liked the ulterior motive. He pondered for 10 minutes, calculating the future.

He soon smirked, "Fine. I'll give you a dragonewt bloodline and help you ascend. I'll give you a week after the ascension. Bring me Xiaomao's head, or I'll detonate the dragonewt bloodline in you!"

Huntsman looked firm. He cupped his fist and mimicked Zhou Yu, "Thank you, Lord Solomon! I will not let you down!"
