Cathulhu Online, MUNYA!

Chapter 249 Cat Dad And More Trouble

Chapter 249 – Cat Dad and More Trouble

Sitting in his room and reading Pangu Online's game website was a handsome Korean high-schooler. Although his modified game capsule's hatch was open, he didn't bother closing it.

There was something urgent that he needed to check. On the website, an official major update announcement troubled Seo Jungwoo.

.

<strong>Major Update Announcement!</strong>

Hello, it's your favorite developer, Pan Mei!

We are honored and proud to welcome over 500 million players worldwide. It has been three months since the game has launched, and the average number of online players is 50 million, which is unprecedented. Because of your support, our developers have been working 70 hours a week to give you a New Year gift!

.

Seo Jungwoo stopped reading and looked at the calendar.

Gamers had the tendency to forget time and dates in the real world as they lacked interaction in real life. However, Seo Jungwoo still remembered which date he was in.

January 12th, 2024

"New Year's gift my ass. It's late."

He continued reading the announcement.

.

As you know, all servers, aka worlds, have unique settings, NPCs, and backgrounds. World One is a medieval fantasy. World Two is a cultivation world, and World Three is the cocktail of all races and classes. So far, many players have triggered story scenario events and monopolized the questline, which is not what we want – We wish for all players to enjoy our story quests and major events without discrimination!

Therefore, our developer teams unanimously decide to push forward more events and major patches before the schedule. Here is the updated detail;

<strong>= Peerage and Nobles =</strong>

Guilds that affiliate with a country or kingdom may obtain noble ranks from their country leader (Emperor / Chief / Queen / ETC). Each noble rank requires a different Contribution Level Milestone and number of governing provinces and cities.

<strong>Examples</strong>

Contribution Level 9999 or higher, own at least 20% of a world - Emperor

Contribution Level 7000 or higher, own a continent - King

Contribution Level 5000 or higher, serve a country, own 50% of a continent - Archduke

Contribution Level 3000 or higher, serve a country, own at least five regions - Grand Prince

Contribution Level 2000 or higher, serve a country, own at least two regions - Prince

Contribution Level 1500 or higher, serve a country, own a region - Duke

Contribution Level 1000 or higher, serve a country, own two provinces - Marquis

Contribution Level 700 or higher, serve a country, own province - Count

Contribution Level 500 or higher, serve a country, own a city - Viscount

Contribution Level 400 or higher, serve a country, own a land - Baron

Contribution Level 300 or higher, serve a country - Baronet

Contribution Level 200 or higher, serve a country - Knight

*Each noble rank offers a different reward, wage, and perks, depending on the country's characteristic, geography, strategic resources, political stances, and their leaders. Players need to investigate and compare the perks themselves.

.

That was just the tip of the iceberg. There were five more sections that Jungwoo read through.

Territory War

Lands and Permanent Housing

Dungeons and Dungeon Masters

Miscellaneous Updates and Changes

Seo Jungwoo patiently reread everything twice, not missing a detail. When he was done, Jungwoo stared at the last section, which troubled him.

.

<strong>= Superpower =</strong>

This section is dedicated to enthusiastic players who invested millions of dollars into the game. To be honest, we have done our best to hide this information since the integration is not 100% stable. However, due to baseless rumors and accidental deaths that terrorists and extremists claimed, we want to be clear with our customers.

This game is created with multi-purposes. The first is obviously ENTERTAINMENT. The second is the financial profits. Thirdly, the SUPERPOWER – Importing your character status to your real body! And lastly, you can attain immortality once your increase your level to 1,000!

Players with a Super-Rare NFT character, an Ultra Rare NFT character, or even better, a Legendary NFT character, may acquire superpowers from their game avatar, granting that you're playing as a character with the same gender as your real life. When you log out after playing for at least 10 hours in-game, you will start seeing things when you close your eyes.

If you see something behind your eyelids when you close your eyes, please consult Pangu Universe Incorporate so that we can help you awaken your superpower.

"Shit. Are they crazy? The cat is out of the bag now!"

<strong>[Byakko Instinct]:</strong> Correction! The cat is on the freaking bed! No... WE'RE CATS!

Telling the world about the superpower was like telling trolls on the internet how to build practical C4 bombs. Soon, many crazy gamers or rich old men would flock into the game for the so-called immortality.

Ignoring Byakko's pun joke, Jungwoo glanced at a crypto trading report. As he had expected, the price of PACT increased by 1500% in a day. Now, it was 32 dollars per token.

He took a deep breath and looked at his PACT balance.

300 million PACT

Despite becoming a billionaire, Jungwoo was not happy. He knew that 300 million wouldn't be enough for the upcoming Landlord Patch's content.

"Mir. What's the average price of a land deed or a three-story house again?"

The orange cat that had left Xiaomao, Mir, had been sleeping on Jungwoo's bed. She raised her head up and rolled her eyes upward.

Her eyes shook for a moment. Then, she spoke in a human language.

"About 10,000 PACTs for a 100 square meter blank land if you buy it directly from a merchant guild. If you include a one-story house, add another zero. Two story-house, double that amount. If three, that should be around 400,000ish. The price will keep going higher since the supply is limited."

Jungwoo rubbed his forehead. He wondered how much he might need if he wanted an entire city.

As if Mir had read Jungwoo's mind, she giggled.

"Why bother? You will eventually join the MUNYA Guild anyway. Leave that to Xiaomao."

"But I don't want to freeload him. At least, I should prepare to contribute something."

"How nice of you. Instead of worrying about Xiaomao, how about you worry about yourself? You're a top-ranker, and you have no guild. The Blue House and Korean guilds will not leave you alone until you join them."

Jungwoo narrowed his eyes. He closed the laptop and stood up, getting ready to rejoin the game.

"I can just simply world-jump into the game. They won't find me."

"But they will find this apartment and your family."

"…"

"And Tae Ran."

"Aigo. That won't do. Then, what should I do?"

Mir smiled and looked south. She pointed in the direction of Jeju Island.

"Go to the national park. Xiaomao should be coming back shortly. Find him and talk to him. He has a dungeon and a residential area in his dungeon. You two can migrate your family and your girlfriend there. But before that, bring him here. I need to train both of you together."

"Okay!"

<strong>[Byakko Instinct]:</strong> Don't forget our snacks too! Make sure to bring a lot of yangnyeom sauce! I love those spicy chickens!

"Eh, fine!"

Jungwoo closed the game hatch and picked up his shoes. He walked to the balcony and put his shoes on before he transformed into a weretiger. Then, he activated the camouflage skill that he had gotten from Xiaomao.

WHOOSH

Jungwoo leaped from his balcony. Without a flying sword or a vehicle, he circulated his Qi according to his mentor's teaching and flew in the sky, heading to Jeju Island.

= Slave Dungeon, B9 Floor, Residential Area =

Xiaomao was in his house in the residential area. He played with Nyanko as the girl missed him so much that she didn't let him go.

Nyanko nudged her head against his. Then, she licked his fur.

Nya (Your fur is tasty! What did you eat, papa?)

"Chickens, munya."

Nya-Nya? (Can I have some?!)

Nyanko's cute big eyes glittered. Looking into her eyes, Xiaomao felt guilty. He couldn't afford to feed her Cookie's meat due to the curses. Fortunately, Xiaomao had extra food from the Guild War's fountain vendors.

Xiaomao gave Nyanko smoked seasoned pork to her instead.

"It's kinda spicy. Can you eat spicy food, munya?"

NYA! (Food is food! I eat all food!)

Nyanko devoured the smoked pork as if she was a hungry wolf. Even Mama Cat widened her eyes and stared at her daughter in shock.

"There's some for you, too."

Xiaomao fed Mama Cat a similar BBQ pork steak. The black cat happily chewed it and hummed as she ate.

While Xiaomao looked at how happy his cats were, Mary visited him.

"Erm… Boss?"

"Yes, munya?"

Xiaomao didn't forget Mary, whom he snatched from a town to be his dungeon HR manager.

Mary brought a bundle of papers and put them next to him. Then, she started reporting what she had done in the past few days.

"I have accounted all mannequins and separated the elites from defective bots. Also, the elite mannequins have recently gained sentience, and they can talk. If you want, I can order them to come here."

Xiaomao raised his brows in astonishment. He read the papers, which listed all stats of the elite mannequins. Out of 50,000 prototypes, two of them had elite status, and Mary named them.

In the paper, the portraits of the two elite mannequins and their details were present. Both of them strangely had titles.

<strong>Hildegard, the Princess Knight, Level 300</strong>

<strong>Brynhild, the Shield Maiden, Level 450</strong>

Something sounded fishy here.

"If my mythos knowledge doesn't fail me, isn't Brynhild Odin's daughter?! Why the hell did you name her Brynhild, munya? What if you accidentally create a clone of the real goddess, munya?!"

Mary wryly smiled, "Umm, they kinda behave like a valkyrie or some sort. I couldn't help it."

Xiaomao covered his face with all eight tentacles as he had a headache. He didn't want Odin's spy in his dungeon.

"Summon both of them to the boss room, munya. I'll talk to them."

He pet Nyanko and Mama Cat before he left with Mary. Then, along the way, they ran into Wei Zhi, who was in the middle of jogging and adapting to the new environment.

"Hey, Xiaomao! I saw your matches! You were so OP!"

"Thanks. Anyway, I'm kinda busy, munya. Catch you later."

"Wait!" Wei Zhi grabbed Xiaomao and carried him in her arms.

"Oi! Unhand me! I have a lot of work to do, munya!"

Wei Zhi glanced at Mary and stared at the latter's chest. She faintly smiled and pressed the cat against her big boba.

The soft and warm sensation distracted Xiaomao. He looked up, but he accidentally drooled.

"Hehe, you big-boob-fetish perv! Now that I merge my game character and my new body, let me join in for some fun, too! I want to grind some levels. Take me along and let me ride on your bus!"

"…"

Xiaomao hesitated. He needed to confront the two newborn elite mannequins, and he might put Wei Zhi in danger. But suddenly, Wei Zhi turned Xiaomao around and buried his face in between the melons.

"I'll suffocate you if you decline. You have two choices, Xiaomao! Suck my boobs forever or bring me along!"

"…"

The cat didn't move for a whole minute, but Wei Zhi sensed the tongue of Xiaomao on her chest and the inner parts of her breasts. It was a slight touch at first. Then, it slowly moved as if it was savoring the taste.

He licked her inner boob!

His tentacles also coiled around the two melons!

Two of his tentacles reached for the tip of the mountains!

Moreover, she faintly heard Xiaomao's mumbling voice.

"Yes, mom."

"…"

Wei Zhi had a chill running down her spine. She had a hunch that she might have awakened a sleeping beast inside Xiaomao.
