Cathulhu Online, MUNYA!

Chapter 358 Cat Dad Is A Protagonist!

Chapter 358 – Cat Dad is a Protagonist!

Xiaomao sat in his house on the B10 floor, staring at two item icons in his inventory. One of them was the heavenly fate crystal, and the other one was the hydra's heart crystal.

Lessor Hydra Heart

Most dragon species gather mana and elemental essence in their hearts due to their unique nature and cultivation methods. Sometimes, they eat a fellow dragon's heart to get stronger. However, cultivators also seek a dragon's heart as well as it's one of the best energy sources in the universe.

This heart belongs to a lessor hydra. Although the quality is incomparable to a real dragon's heart or an adult hydra, immortals can kill to get their hands on one of them. Be careful if you're carrying around with you.

Item Type: Alchemy Ingredient, Consumable

Rarity: Legendary

Requirement: Immortals Only.

Effects: If you consume the heart directly, you will gain the following perks;

- Unlock Poison Element, Corrosion Element, Curse Element, Ice Element, and Hydro Element. Then, increase the element essence attributes by 250,000.

- Increase all basic element essence attributes by 500,000

- Increase lifespan by 100,000 years.

- Unlock dragon bloodline. You can change your race to dragonewt or hydra.

- Increase your negative karma by 1,000,000. Dragons and related races will have a negative first impression of you.

- Learn a racial skill "Dragon Resiliency".

[Cathulhu Instinct]: JUST EAT IT (Eat it), EAT IT (Eat it), Get yourself an egg and beat it! Have some more chicken, have some more pie. It doesn't matter if it's boiled or fried. JUST EAT IT… Just kidding. Not now.

[Foresight]: Dragon Resiliency is a useful lifesaving passive skill. But don't eat it right away. Use that damn heavenly fate crystal and complete your soul formation first. Then, you can eat this later.

.

Xiaomao scratched his head. He had so many game skills that he lost track of it.

Since the Senpais warned him not to eat it now, Xiaomao followed the advice. He pulled out the fate crystal and activated it.

<Will you consume the Heavenly Fate Crystal?>

"Yes, munya."

<Please choose the class you wish to upgrade.>

It was the moment of truth. Xiaomao had no idea what would happen to the incomplete Regressor Class, but he had to try.

"Regressor, munya."

<Affirmative. Upgrading the Regressor Class…>

PFFT!

As soon as the game message showed up, Xiaomao vomited several mouthfuls of blood. His catopus' physique and body mass shrank, and his flesh withered. The glossy and smooth fur lost its moisture and fell off his skin.

CRACK

Xiaomao's skin hardened like a rock. Then, he sensed something changed inside him.

A new layer of skin regenerated and pushed the hardened dead skin outward. Like a cicada crawling out of its shell, Xiaomao slipped out of the dead layer of skin.

CRACK

The shell crumbled and dissipated into dust. The body, which was once a head-sized fur ball with tentacles, now became smaller. He came out as a regular cat with four legs.

However, tentacles came out from his back, acting like the skeletons of his wings. The Unholy Dao Avatar manifested from the combined element Qi from the black tentacles, and the black catopus began threading the element Qi into a web, connecting all four black tentacles together.

The Sigma Nascent Soul also emerged and frowned at the cursed-looking catopus avatar. He slightly shook his head and patted Xiaomao's white tentacles. Instantly, the Holy Qi connected all four tentacles together and completed the structure of the wing skeleton. White feathers grew and transformed the light section into a completed wing.

Noticing how Sigma completed the wing first, the Unholy Dao Avatar pouted. It quickened its tentacles and Qi circulation. Ten seconds later, it also completed the skeleton frame and grew black feathers on the new wing.

Xiaomao had no idea what the Unholy and Sigma did to his tentacles. He was too absorbed in the fact that he had four legs and paws like a real cat.

"I'm now a cat, munya? But I want to upgrade the Regressor Class, not my race, munya. Why the heck have I transformed into a cat?"

It didn't take long for the game system to reveal the answer. After the transformation was completed, a message window flashed in front of Xiaomao.

DING

<Congratulations. You have upgraded the Regressor Class into Protagonist Class!>

"Protagonist?! Really? Not Hero, but PROTAGONIST?!"

Xiaomao was confused. If the class showed up as HERO, he wouldn't be surprised since this class was common in many game novels and fantasy stories. However, he had never seen the Protagonist Class as it didn't clearly describe the role of the class.

It was the title of the main characters in stories, not a job or a class!

Why was this a class?!

DING

<WARNING! A FATAL ERROR HAS BEEN DETECTED! Protagonist Class doesn't exist in the database!>

<Debugging… Removing the Protagonist Class!>

"HEY!"

Xiaomao was enraged. Realizing that either Solomon or Pangu messed with his game character to weaken him again, he yelled and slapped the message window with his paws.

<MUNYA-MUNYA-MUNYA-MUNYA!>

Fortunately, someone had been watching over him. The mysterious MUNYA messages appeared.

Xiaomao remembered this message. It always appeared whenever his game character encountered a glitch in Pangu and Solomon's game systems. He had a hunch that it might be Mu-Nyang's doings.

DING

<The errors have been fixed.>

<Congratulations. You have unlocked the Fate Attribute!>

<Your Luck and Fate Attribute has increased by 1,000,000!>

<Your Daos have been strengthened!>

<Your leveling system has been adjusted. The required EXP for each level has been decreased by 90%.>

<Your natural charm has been increased.  Please be wary of women unless you wish for a massive harem.>

"…"

<The other perks have been added to the Fate Feature. Please check the Fate Menu for details.>

Xiaomao raised his brows and looked at his status menu. Obvious enough, a new tab appeared.

Curious, Xiaomao pressed the tab and a pop-up window manifested, showing the tutorial of this feature.

.

Fate Menu

Every protagonist in many stories has a goal in life. Some seek revenge. Some desire peace and tranquility while many have their personal agendas. However, in the end, the stories eventually lead them to the predetermined ending.

This fate menu will guide and assist you through your story. The name of antagonists, deuteragonists, and other main characters are listed here for you to view and study. Their specialties, traits, and weaknesses are automatically recorded if you manage to defeat their clones in your pocket dantian.

In addition, the perks and skills of the Protagonist Class will be listed here instead of your skill or spell menu as some abilities cannot be categorized in a normal way. For further information, you may check your traits, strength, and weaknesses in the menu.
