Cthulhu Fantasy : I Am The Great Old One

Du Kang did not mind helping Nyarlathotep. After all, their friendship was there, and they had lived with Nyarlathotep for so long for nothing. Even if Nyarlathotep dug a pit for him to jump into, as long as the pit was not too big, he would admit it.    

Nyarlathotep made it very clear that a powerful existence had appeared in this place recently, but he needed to go back and see his boss. He didn't have time. Therefore, this job was entrusted to Du Kang.    

He said it very clearly. But...    

Du Kang took out a stack of paintings from his bosom and took a look.    

Nyarlathotep's painting was too abstract. Du Kang could barely tell that it was a hairy loach.    

Would this thing... live here?    

Du Kang originally wanted to use the prawn man's incarnation this time. After all, according to Nyarlathotep, the other party was not weak. In that case, it would be safer to choose an incarnation that could fight without knowing the background of the opponent. However, Nyarlathotep stopped him.    

"You'd better not use that avatar and the main body for now. Your spirit needs to rest for a while."    

Du Kang remembered what Nyarlathotep said.    

Du Kang did not feel that his spirit needed rest. In fact, he had just woken up and was very energetic. However, since Nyarlathotep had said so, he must have found out something was wrong. He just had to do it.    

After all, although Nyarlathotep was usually very unruly, he was still very reliable when he was serious.    

It was a match for the long-haired loach. There was also a set of maps, which was still Nyarlathotep's hand-drawn work. Du Kang suspected that only Nyarlathotep could understand this abstract style. Du Kang only looked at this map and did not know where to go.    

He did not know who to look for, and he did not know where to go. Du Kang walked in this jungle without any purpose.    

In any case, he would meet them sooner or later in this continent.    

One should know that he had paid his respects to Guan Liu before coming out this time, so his luck should be pretty good.    

————————    

Carrying the spear, he shuttled through the forest.    

If he had a choice, he actually didn't want to hunt in this dangerous jungle. But there was no other way. Under the protection of the Corn God, this year's harvest of corns was an apology. If he didn't come over to hunt something, his family would even have problems with the most basic of lives.    

The tip of the spear was sharp obsidian, which could easily pierce into the bodies of wild beasts. With this spear, he could even take down some large beasts - - but he still wanted to use a relatively safe bow and arrow to hunt, but the bow and arrow were too expensive. He couldn't afford to use it.    

No hunter was willing to come with him to this dangerous forest, even if there were a lot of prey here. He heard from the elders in the tribe that the undead of ancient soldiers lived in this forest. Under the cover of the dense forest, even during the day, these undead would come out to fight and harvest lives.    

However, he still came. He knew very well which Undead was more dangerous than hunger. Moreover, to him, the Undead were nothing more than a toy to scare children. No one had seen it with their own eyes. It was all hearsay and false rumors. As for the words of the elders... He felt that it was time to advise them not to fly the leaves. It was not a good thing to live in an illusion every day.    

Soon, he found a suitable prey. It was a female lion. If it was empty handed, he would definitely run as far as he could. However, with this spear, he had the confidence to take down this fierce beast.    

The meat of lions could be used to feed his family, the skin of lions could be used to trade and buy some food. As long as he could survive this year, it would be easy to talk about next year. After all, no matter how reliable the Corn God was, he could not apologize every year.    

Lowering his spear, he charged straight at the female lion.    

The lion's reaction was very fast. It looked like it was going to pounce on him. However, his spear was even faster, able to pierce through the lion's body before it could pounce on him.    

However, there was something that was even faster than him.    

A gust of wind attacked from the side. An enormous black shadow flashed forward, grabbing the lion's neck.    

This is...    

A strong sense of danger was warning him. He couldn't help but take two steps back.    

What appeared in his line of sight was... It was a massive, ten-foot tall figure, clad in a strange armor full of cracks, as if it had been through countless battles. The only thing that was still intact under the helmet was a ferocious and dignified mask. On the mask, two red lights flickered in the position of his eyes, like raging flames.    

And now, this enormous figure was holding the lion's throat with one hand, lifting it up.    

This is...    

He looked at the fire in the eyes of the huge figure in fear.    

This is...    

Crack -    

The huge figure casually broke the lion's neck and threw it to the side.    

This is...    

The huge figure walked towards him with heavy steps.    

His eyes were flickering with a faint fiery light.    

This is...    

"Undead!"    

He threw the spear at the armored Undead and turned around to run.    

————————    

Du Kang felt a headache as he looked at the human who was screaming as he ran.    

This could also scare people... Was there any reason for this?    

However, he still had to call this person back. Looking at his attire, he looks like a local. Perhaps this human would know some information related to the thing he was looking for.    

Picking up the spear from the ground, Du Kang turned it around and aimed at the human's back with the other end of the stick.    

"Go!"    

The spear flew out like a javelin, hitting the human who was panicking on the ground.    

Du Kang walked a few steps and carried the unconscious human.    

After fighting with Yellow Robed Monster, Du Kang could feel that his control over his strength had become even more precise. He wanted to knock this human out for an hour, and this human wouldn't lose consciousness for an extra minute.    

This human seemed to be very afraid of him. Then he must first create an atmosphere suitable for communication...    

Du Kang picked up the long spear on the ground and carried the fainted human back to the forest.    

First, he had to cut down some trees and make a bonfire.    

————————    

Sitting up from the ground, he shook his confused head.    

What... happened?    

He remembered that he had entered the dangerous forest, met a female lion, and then met the undead.    

He met an Undead? How could there be such a thing? It seemed like he had really lost his mind.    

Rubbing his aching body, he prepared to leave this evil place.    

Right, where is that spear going...    

His movements froze.    

Right in front of him, that enormous armor was sitting by the bonfire, silently looking at the half-cooked lion that was being roasted on top of the bonfire.    

This is...    

The corner of his mouth twitched.    

"Undead!"
