Cthulhu Card Making: Medusa Card Making at the Beginning.

Chapter 53 Card Making: Character Card [Shoggoth]

Shoggoth, a famous creature from the most bizarre Cthulhu mythology.

A nightmarish black shape, its amorphous body emitting a foul odor, wriggling and flowing forward, a mass of amorphous protoplasm bubbles, flashing a faint glow, and tens of thousands of green, pus-like eyes constantly forming and decomposing on its surface.

When Lin Mo saw the bloody mud man for the first time that night, a terrifying creature that was very similar to it gradually emerged in his mind.
Same tentacles, same fishy stench.

The only difference is that the tentacles of the Shoggoth have tens of thousands of constantly changing pupils.

Exposed on the bloody mud man's abdomen and disproportionate limbs were bloody human heads.

The most important thing is that the clay man has the ability to deform and reshape itself, which is almost completely consistent with the mythological description of the Shoggoth.

Lin Mo held the magic pen in his hand and kept drawing dotted lines on the whiteboard. The images of two strange creatures in his mind began to intertwine and overlap.

Soon, he copied the scene in his mind onto the baseboard one-to-one.

Above the dilapidated ruins and collapsed houses, there were puddles of dark mud, and above the mud were countless eyes glowing green.

The surrounding background is pitch black.
At this point, the first step of card making is completed.

Lin Mo was in a trance.

This time, when carving the card, he always felt that it took longer.

Even the source power and mental power that continuously flowed out of the body was much greater than in previous card making.

The next step is to write the corresponding story and description.

After calming himself down, Lin Mo picked up the pen, dipped it in the spiritual liquid, and began to write down every relevant memory in his mind without missing a word.

What kind of slaves created by the ancients to rule the rulers of the blue planet, can continuously combine and imitate, thereby evolving high-dimensional organisms?
Lin Mo recorded all the relevant descriptions in it almost all at once.

With the blessing of the talent [Evil Oracle], strange dark purple lines almost extended to half of Lin Mo's body, and each line emitted a faint light.

Dark source power, far more powerful than before, was continuously injected into the card surface, activating each word one by one.

Sweat dripped from the tip of Lin Mo's nose.

This was the first time so far that he felt a little mentally exhausted while making the card.

With a wave of his hand, the material cards prepared in advance were evenly arranged on the workbench.

[Clay Figure Core] Blue material, [Fluorescent Ghost] Blue material, [Magic Altar] Blue material.
[Red Ghost Eyes] Green material, [Confusing Breath] Green material, [Slime Strong Sticky Body] Green material.
Based on the principle of recycling, Lin Mo took the spare materials left over from previous card making, selected materials with common compatibility and adaptability, and added them into the card making.

As Lin Mo integrated materials into the card one after another, the strange creature with countless tentacles on the card seemed to come alive.

The difference is that all the eyes on its tentacles have changed from dark green to a more captivating red.

The last step is to fill in your real name.

Shoggoth!
With a stroke of the pen, as the three words fell on the page, Lin Mo felt a sudden pain in his head, and even most of the source of power in his body was irresistibly drained away.

The black fog gradually gathered, and accompanied by a crackling sound, a card slowly floated in the air. The blue and purple colors on the edge of the card kept changing.

Finally, accompanied by a shattering sound, the faint light on the card gradually dimmed, the black fog gathered, and a dark blue card floated into Lin Mo's hand.

"Come, let me see what the high-star blue card looks like."

Just staring at the card, Lin Mo felt excited.

Seven-star blue card.

You know, Bai Xinqiao's fox is only five stars.

Now there is a seal in my fate palace, which is just right for me to contract this card.
Injecting source power into the card, the next moment, thick black fog spread out from the card, instantly enveloping Lin Mo's figure completely.

Lin Mo, who felt the card flying out of his hand, was also waiting quietly with great anticipation.

But after the black fog completely dissipated, he was a little dumbfounded.

"No, where's Karin?"

Lin Mo looked around, but there was nothing in front of him.

There wasn't a speck of black mud, not even a fingernail-sized speck of mud.

Jigujigu~
Just as Lin Mo was surprised, a strange sound came into his ears. He felt a coolness on his hand, and Lin Mo quickly looked down.

Then he saw a palm-sized, irregular shape that was constantly wriggling. It was lying on his hand and crawling slowly upwards. Its dark body was bulging into a small bag.

As it rose and fell, a gurgling sound was made.

There is a bright red eye on the slightly raised bump.

The first time he saw this ghost thing, Lin Mo subconsciously wanted to throw it out of his hand, but the next moment, he forcibly stopped the impulse in his heart.

He put his hands flat and stared at the irregular mass.

The two eyes stared straight into the other's single red eye.

"Shoggoth?" Lin Mo opened his mouth and exclaimed in surprise.

Unexpectedly, the dark irregular object stopped climbing up the arm, and one of its eyes turned and looked at Lin Mo.

"Master~Master~." The next moment, a tiny voice that could not be distinguished between male and female came from the body of this irregular creature.

After receiving the response, Lin Mo suddenly looked helpless.

As a high-star blue quality card spirit, isn't this little thing a little too small?

When the time comes for the card masters to fight on stage, do you want him to throw this thing in other people's faces?

Just as his heart was beating fast, the little thing began to be beating fast again, uttering intermittent and difficult words.

"Master~ It smells so good~ Eat it~"

"what?"

Because the sound was too soft, Lin Mo didn't hear it clearly. He stretched his ear to listen more clearly, but then he felt weak all over and his eyes went dark.

Before he could react, he collapsed onto the bed.

The Shoggoth clinging to Lin Mo's hand began to grow larger as it continued to wriggle and rise.

Soon, it was big enough to cover Lin Mo completely.
