Cathulhu Online, MUNYA!
Chapter 76 Cat Dad’s Spirit Stone and Corrupted Spirit StonesChapter 76 – Cat Dad’s Spirit Stone and Corrupted Spirit Stones
This was not a normal question as it was related to the final bosses behind the future events. Xiaomao stared at the smiling crocodile dragon, suspecting that he asked this question on purpose.
“Pangu is the god of Pangu Church. His sole purpose is to vanquish all Chaos Demon Gods and Demon Goddesses in the universe, but his fight extends to mortal worlds. Chaos Demon God Tlaloc is one of Pangu’s nemesis, and he is working under Chaos Seraphim, aka Pangu’s nemesis. As for Nian, I haven’t heard of him before, but he seems to be on Pangu’s side.”
“I see. I guess you aren’t omniscient. There’s a limit to what you can learn with a limited lifespan after all.”
DING
<Cernun accepts your answer.>
<Last question. Get ready!>
Cernun brightly smiled for a moment before his expression turned solemn. He took several deep breaths as if he was reeling in his emotions.
“Last question. How did I die before you regress?”
“…”
As Xiaomao had expected, Cernun used the five-question quest to probe for sensitive information. As Xiaomao had no intention to hide, he revealed everything.
“Pangu’s men broke the seal, and the anglerfish got out. Half of the mainland sunk into the sea, but Pangu Church framed you. Players, I meant the majority of otherworlders started a crusade and invaded this place. You can guess the result, munya.”
“When will that happen?”.
“In roughly 2 years, munya.”
“That’s quite urgent, isn’t it?”
“Yes, munya.”
“Hahaha! How exciting!”
DING
<Cernun accepts your answer.>
<Congratulations. You have completed the Test of Knowledge and Honesty Quest!>
<Cernun trusts you. Current Favorability: 4 Stars!>
<You can now travel freely and accept jobs in Cernun’s territory.>
<The local fairies are curious about you.>
<The Fairy Kingdom sees you as a friend and a trusty ally of Cernun. Current Favorability: 2 Stars.>
DING
<New information obtained. From now on, Unidentified Black Stones will be shown as Corrupted Spirit Stones.>
.
Corrupted Spirit Stone
Created by Tlaloc, these corrupted spirit stones contain curses that slowly pollute the stone owners’ minds. If you hold this stone for a month, you will be susceptible to Tlaloc Curse, and you can be brainwashed!
However, the corrupted spirit stones are useful to counter the Curses of Nian and build arrays. There are some usages, but you shouldn’t keep them with you for too long.
Item Type: Consumable, Cursed Item, Array Ingredient
Rarity: Super Rare
Effect:
– Receive permanent Curse of Tlaloc abnormal status upon use.
– Increase EXP by 1,000,000
– Permanently increase Qi by 1,000.
– Permanently increase all status by 10.
– Permanently increase all spiritual roots by 10.
– Permanently increase max HP and MP by 100.
*[?????? Instinct]: Never consume this. It’s a honey trap.
.
The item was finally identified, and all details were shown. As Xiaomao had expected, it was a honey trap. Although it could permanently increase stats, it cursed the item consumer.
In addition, Curse of Tlaloc was a nasty one, which also affected the mind of the players.
Xiaomao checked the spirit stone to compare its effect.
.
Cleansed Spirit Stone
Raw spirit stones can be found in spirit mines in Yuan Empire, Holy Land Continent, and Neptune Mountain Range. However, this stone is the purified version of the corrupted spirit stone. As its name implied, it has been cleansed of the curse, and it can be safely consumed. However, the effect of the spirit stone degrades because of the rough refinement.
Item Type: Consumable, Array Ingredient
Rarity: Super Rare
Effect:
– Increase EXP by 10,000,000
– Unlock Dantian and Cultivator Class.
– Permanently increase Qi by 100.
– Permanently increase LUCK by 1.
– Permanently increase all status by 1.
– Permanently increase all spiritual roots by 1.
– Permanently increase max HP and MP by 10.
*[?????? Instinct]: Essence Cores, Soul Stones, Dao Stones, and Catnipium Stones are a lot better than this mediocre stone. Using it as a currency is a wiser choice.
.
Indeed, it had no side effects, and it was safe to consume. It also gave a lot more EXP, which could be consumed to boost one’s levels.
Unfortunately, as it was refined and cleansed, it was a lot weaker than corrupted spirit stones. It gave less permanent stats in exchange for safety.
Xiaomao put the stones away. He turned his attention to Cernun, waiting for the crocodile to finish this conversation and quest. He was also curious what Cernun had in store for him.
Meanwhile, the crocodile dragon had been mumbling something to himself as if he had been talking to someone. Three minutes later, he started talking again.
“I have been talking to my subordinates elsewhere. Sorry about that. Well, you pass the test.”
“Thank you, munya. Then, is there anything I can do for you?”
“Indeed. I hope you can run an errand for me. You already know that we’re suppressing the Calamity-Class monster under our island chain, and the seal is getting weaker because of Pangu and Tlaloc’s apostles. We need spirit stones and corrupted spirit stones to strengthen the seal array. I hope that you can help us.”
DING
<You have been offered a faction quest!>
<Be warned. If you accept this quest, there will be a global announcement that you initiate the first faction scenario quest!>
<Be warned. If you complete this quest, the Pangu Church’s apostles and Chaos Demon God Tlaloc’s apostles will be hostile against you.>
‘Faction scenario quest!’
Xiaomao was surprised. At first, he planned to initiate the corrupted spirit stone questline at Yeet City first to unlock more information about spirit stones. However, Cernun identified them for him and revealed the item contents after the test.
A load of burden came off Xiaomao’s shoulders. He now could focus on clearing his name and visiting Emperor Yuan.
“That is my intention, munya!”
“Very well. I don’t need much at the moment. How about 1,000 spirit stones or corrupted spirit stones by the end of the month?”
“Wait a minute, munya!”
It was too late. A quest prompt showed up.
