Cthulhu Fantasy : I Am The Great Old One

Under the bright moonlight, an ancient ring was placed on the bluestone. The youth kneeling on the ground looked at the huge prawn shadow above the ring in a daze, listening to the other party's teachings.    

"First of all, how did you see me?"    

In Wei Lang's line of sight, the transparent prawn shadow, which was as tall as a person, let out a chaotic roar.    

"You probably can't see me, right? Didn't you always see me? How can you see it all of a sudden?"    

"In reply to the old man, the kid doesn't know either."    

Wei Lang, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned by the question.    

"I can see you when I see that old liar... Is there a problem?"    

"No, wait for me to sort it out."    

Du Kang gently raised his hand, signaling Wei Lang to be quiet for a while.    

From Wei Lang's description, it should be like this. First, the old man playing with fire showed his head, then he punched the old man to death. After that, Wei Lang could see him.    

If he had to explain, it actually made sense. No matter how lively that old man was, he was still a ghost. Du Kang's punch had blown up the old ghost, which proved that he could come into contact with it. At least he was on the same level as the old ghost. Wei Lang had seen a ghost before. Of course, he could see the second one...    

"This..."    

Du Kang was speechless for a long time.    

He had almost been spit on his face just now, and now he had become a ghost?    

"What's going on..."    

Du Kang, who had lowered his head, was stunned.    

Just like in the beginning, he could not see his hands, feet, or body, not even a transparent shadow.    

"This... kid."    

Du Kang shifted his gaze to Wei Lang.    

"You just said that you want to become stronger?"    

"In reply to the old man, I do want to become stronger!"    

Wei Lang, who was kneeling on the ground, nodded his head repeatedly.    

"I want to become stronger, just so that I won't be humiliated like this again!"    

"I see..."    

Looking at Wei Lang's serious face, Du Kang felt that he understood the current situation.    

The reason why things had come to this point was definitely because of the plot.    

If his guess was correct, the book Nyarlathotep gave him was not an ordinary novel. The way he read it was not an ordinary way of reading, so when he read a story, he did not understand it as well as a normal novel. It was the correct way to read a story like this, where he went through the entire story with the main character.    

Furthermore, unlike the normal reading method, this type of reading method could not only understand the entire story, it could also communicate with the main character and influence the main character. It was simply like some sort of nurturing game.    

According to this train of thought, everything that happened just now was not difficult to understand - first, an antagonist appeared to roughly demonstrate the way he interacted with the main character, then the antagonist would make some disgusting moves and get punched by the reader himself. And after that...    

"Understood."    

Looking at Wei Lang who was kneeling in front of him, Du Kang felt that he had understood something.    

Now was the time for the readers to influence the main character.    

"Amazing... It's really high-tech."    

Du Kang couldn't help but praise.    

He had to admit that Nyarlathotep really did take out something reliable this time.    

But... become stronger?    

"Kid."    

Du Kang seemed to have thought of something and was silent for a moment.    

"You said you want to become stronger... What do you mean by become stronger?"    

"Power of the Moon!"    

Wei Lang looked serious.    

"As long as I can pass the coming of age ceremony, everything I have will be yours."    

"Hmm..."    

Du Kang fell into silence.    

Although Wei Lang's feminine behavior made Du Kang a little unhappy, this kid still had some responsibility on him. As long as Wei Lang could pass the coming of age ceremony, Wei Lang's father, Wei Qiesi, would be able to hold his position in the family. After that... it was obvious that this kid did not overthink his words.    

However, Du Kang did not intend to ask Wei Lang to do anything excessive. He was just a spectator. He did not care about these things, but the real key was not here. It was...    

"Kid."    

Du Kang pondered for a moment.    

"Power of the Moon, what is it?"    

He had only been in the book for less than a day, and he could understand the Power of the Moon with a hammer.    

"What... what did you say?"    

Wei Lang, who was kneeling on the ground, looked at the giant shrimp in surprise.    

"Power of the Moon, you don't know?"    

"How could I know this?"    

Du Kang shook his head.    

Indeed, he had only seen the stone tablet used to determine the position of the stone tablet and the scene where Wei Lang was meditating. But what could he tell from this? He didn't even know how to use the so-called Power of the Moon.    

"This thing you guys are practicing..."    

Halfway through his words, Du Kang was stunned for a moment.    

That's right, he was now participating in the plot of this novel. As a participant, he naturally had to play his role well - at the very least, he could not be too out of character. Otherwise, if he really said something like "why did you practice something like a great skill" or something like that... wouldn't that be very awkward?    

"This thing you guys practice doesn't exist in ancient times."    

Although he didn't know what he looked like in Wei Lang's eyes, Du Kang still started to speak nonsense.    

"Let me tell you, we ancient people didn't use this kind of stuff. So... you understand? I don't even know about this Power of the Moon you are talking about."    

" Wh... "    

Wei Lang was stunned.    

This giant prawn in front of him did indeed look very ancient. Even the tone of its voice carried an ancient feeling. But... the ancient people could actually grow like this? How did this appearance look like a human?    

Not to mention... even the kid who just learned the Power of the Moon didn't know about it?    

"But you don't have to worry about it."    

Seeing Wei Lang's expression change, Du Kang quickly comforted him.    

"Although I don't know anything about Power of the Moon, the essence of strength is still the same after reaching a certain level... That's right, I am very strong. So, as long as you give me a general introduction about the Power of the Moon, I will know how to make you stronger. "    

Du Kang was shocked by his own shamelessness.    

Perhaps it was because he knew that he was "reading books," Du Kang had a vague feeling of letting himself go when he was playing games.    

"This... Alright."    

Looking at the giant prawn shadow in front of him, Wei Lang nodded with difficulty.    

Although he also felt that something was wrong, the power that the old man showed was not fake. When the old man's shadow used the green flame just now, Wei Lang was so scared that his legs went soft. However, such a terrifying flame was still destroyed by the huge prawn's punch.    

It was followed by the old liar.    

Perhaps... the other party really had a way to solve this problem?    

"About the Power of the Moon..."    

Picking up a piece of rock, Wei Lang casually drew on the ground.    

"This is what happened..."
