Cathulhu Online, MUNYA!

Chapter 82 – Cat Dad's New Discovery

Loud noise and screams came from outside, and people from the mansion gathered in the front yard with their weapons. Even maids and weak-looking butlers wielded spears and bows. However, none of them paid attention to the tall bushes at the west of the mansion.

A toned middle-aged man opened the door and came out to the third-floor balcony. His brown mustache, black bailey hat, black jeans, brown jacket, and white t-shirt stood out from the rest of the NPCs here. Above his head were his name and level.

Bit Tupeer, Level 120

The cowboy-like NPC pointed his flintlock pistol and fired a round. He yelled at his subordinates.

"CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON OUT THERE?!"

.

Tall grasses and bushes wiggled under the sunlight. Inside the bushes were two Solid Snakes. Lucky and Shepherd kept their heads down, crawling and creeping toward the extended house, which was connected to the edge of the mansion. As for Xiaomao and Magdalene, they simply walked on their feet, and nobody could see them from outside of the bushes.

BANG

Hearing the gunshot, everyone turned around to look in the direction of the mansion's main road. Upon seeing that nobody was coming for them, they let out a sigh of relief.

"Let's keep going, munya."

DING

<Magdalene asks you why you are not fleeing from the city.>

"I won't leave until I empty this city's treasury and stash, munya!"

Lucky smirked while Shepherd shook his head. Magdalene facepalmed.

"You're acting like a thief, master," complained Lucky.

"Taking wealth from a bad guy isn't considered thievery. It's charity, munya."

Lucky's expression brightened, "That's how it is! Master, you enlightened me!"

"Call me the master, munya!"

Shepherd and Magdalene stared at Xiaomao with dull eyes before they shook their heads.

After crawling for 10 minutes, they got through the bush area. In front of them was a rusty door, which was sealed by wooden planks. The windows of this house were also roughly sealed and covered with woods and clothes. On the wall, someone left a graffiti of dismembered cat.

Xiaomao and the crew almost cursed at the artist out loud. Anyone who enjoyed torturing or killing cats deserved to be eaten alive by hungry African lions in mating season.

"Lucky, tear some planks and open the door, munya."

Lucky nodded. She stood up and grabbed the planks that blocked the door and pulled it out with ease. The old wood broke and scattered into small pieces. Seeing that the planks were old and rotten, Lucky broke three more planks and opened the rusty door.

She entered the abandoned house first. She peeked inside and brought out her tower shield and bastard sword. Upon noticing that no living being was in sight, she waved her hand, gesturing that the path was cleared.

Xiaomao followed Lucky into the house. Shepherd and Magdalene also rushed in. However, the fairy was thorough.

Magdalene mumbled and manipulated the broken pieces of wood. She restored the planks and put them back in front of the rusty door, sealing the exit as if they hadn't touched it.

Xiaomao and Lucky didn't notice what Magdalene did. They kept scanning the dark house.

The house had nothing but broken furniture. Broken chairs, pieces of jars, broken glasses, and dust were the only things here.

"Let's search the house, munya!"

"What are we here for, master? There shouldn't be any treasure here."

"No. The lore will be worth it. We can also break into the main mansion later, munya!"

Xiaomao brought out a flying sword and began touring the house, leaving the group behind. Shepherd and Magdalene shrugged and searched the house together.

Lucky pouted. He sprint and tried to follow Xiaomao, but she stumped on something and fell on the ground. The dust shot up and got into her mouth, causing her to cough. When she stopped coughing, she glared at the broken wood tiles and clicked her tongue.

"Does nobody here know how to clean the house?"

She covered her nose and mouth with a piece of cloth. Then, she noticed that there was a ledge on the floor, where she had kicked earlier.

Lucky sat down and pulled the ledge, breaking a massive plank that had been roughly nailed on the floor. A staircase was before her.

"Master! I found something!"

.

Soon, the group gathered at the staircase that Lucky had found. They formed a formation with Lucky as the vanguard while Shepherd was the rearguard. As for Xiaomao and the fairy, they sat on Shepherd's shoulders.

The underground was dark, damp, and moldy. Lucky and Shepherd kept coughing because of the dust, but they kept on going.

The basement was a 50 square meters room with 3 meters in height. The ground was made from rough stones, but holes and pits were noticeable.

"Someone must have dug here or searched for something," Lucky saw rusty shovels on the wall and piles of dirt to the side.

Xiaomao kept looking around. The room contained nothing but dirt, holes, and shovels.

SNIFF

Suddenly, Xiaomao caught the scent of something familiar. It smelled like one of his cats when they hadn't taken a bath for months.

Xiaomao looked at the ground and noticed a plate, which was similar to the painting plate in the mansion.

Cathulhu of Wealth and Prosperity, Meowmeow

Xiaomao got interested. He pointed at the ground.

"Lucky, Shepherd, dig here munya!"

The two turned toward the cat and noticed the plate in the dirt as well. Then, they grabbed the shovels and began digging them.

Five minutes later, they pulled out a broken pedestal without a statue. The pedestal size was at least 10 meters tall, but it was cleanly cut into small pieces and buried here.

Xiaomao frowned as he wondered why Comet and others buried a statue of Cathulhu here. He collected the pedestal into his inventory.

"Keep digging, munya."

.

10 minutes later, they found another object below the buried pedestal. However, it was humongous, and Lucky couldn't bring it out.

Xiaomao rushed to the object and decided to play Minecraft. He touched it and attempted to store it in his inventory.

RUMBLE

Suddenly, the house shook as a large portion of the object vanished into Xiaomao's inventory. Wooden pillars cracked and the wooden ceiling trembled.

Sensing that the house might collapse soon, Lucky and Shepherd grabbed Xiaomao and Magdalene. They rushed up the stairs and got back to the exit.

Unfortunately, Magdalene had sealed the exit with her magic. They couldn't get out the same way.

RUMBLE

The center of the house sank into the basement, and the house collapsed!

<Magdalene says not on my watch!>

A bubble barrier covered the group as the abandoned house fell on them!
