His previous ideas about Arkham have now largely come to fruition.

An alien containment facility, a supernatural school, a library of mysterious knowledge, and impoverished houses where one could disappear at any moment.

However, at this moment, no one came to buy what he had prepared, which made him quite disappointed.

Los, who was bored, lay on the bench when a young voice suddenly sounded beside him.

May I sit here?

Los casually replied, "Whatever, this is a public facility."

After listening, the man seemed to sit down, and then said with excitement, "This place is really bustling and full of human warmth. In the places we went before, there were no benches like these on the streets, and the people on the streets were all indifferent, making you feel cold all over."

Los didn't take off his hat and said lazily, "Well, you're really unfortunate. But it's okay. Now that you've come to Arkham, you'll definitely receive a warm welcome from the people here."

The man smiled after hearing this and said, "Yes, I can already feel the warmth of the people here. I feel like I'm going to fall in love with this place."

Upon hearing this, Los turned slightly and saw a man dressed in casual clothes, with a buzz cut, dark skin, and a hearty smile on his face, looking around with great joy.

Upon seeing this, Los suddenly sat up, took off his hat, and cautiously looked at the man.

At this moment, the man, still sporting a hearty smile, turned to look at Los and said with a laugh, "What a coincidence, Mr. Black Pharaoh."

As he spoke, the man's smile deepened, "Coincidentally, I also call myself the Black Pharaoh. Between the two of us, who is the real one and who is the fake one?"

Looking at this seemingly ordinary man, Los gradually became wary.

"First of all, it is certain that the Outer God's incarnation in this world is not as strong as me, and I have the blessing of the Arkham Leylands here, so even if it is really an incarnation of Nyarlathotep, I am not afraid."

Los thought to himself, then smiled broadly, before his face transformed into that of a completely different man with dark skin, saying, "Does it matter who's real and who's fake?"

The dark-skinned man's smile gradually faded after hearing this, and he calmly looked at Los and said, "I'm curious, who are you?"

Los smiled and replied, "I am naturally the Black Pharaoh."

The dark-skinned man chuckled lightly: "Los Arkham, you do indeed carry an aura that I find familiar, but that doesn't give you the right to be so presumptuous in front of me now."

As he spoke, the space around the dark-skinned man began to writhe strangely.

In response, Los raised his hand and directly controlled the writhing of the space around him, saying with a smile, "This Black Pharaoh number two, please be aware of your current identity and position."

"Just like you just said about me, I'll reply to you with the same words."

As he spoke, Los's smile faded, and his expression gradually turned cold as he said, "Nyarlathotep, your true form is indeed powerful and fearsome, but that doesn't mean your avatar is now qualified to be so presumptuous in front of me."

Hearing Los's completely retorted words, a hint of surprise appeared on the dark-skinned man's face, but he still showed his hearty smile and said, "You seem very confident, human."

“I’ve always been confident; you just don’t know me well enough,” Los replied casually.

The dark-skinned man became interested: "Perfect timing, I now have time to get to know you properly."

Chapter 0371 Game Theory

Los was quite surprised by the sudden appearance of the real Black Pharaoh.

Although there are clans and many Cthulhu deities in this world, no incarnation of any deity has appeared so far.

What Los didn't expect was that the first incarnation of a god he faced was the Black Pharaoh, whom he had previously impersonated.

In response to the Black Pharaoh's words, Los laughed and said, "I'm not very interested in men, so you probably won't have a chance to get to know me."

The Black Pharaoh smiled and said, "Is that so? Then I also have a female avatar. Do you need one?"

Upon hearing this, Los retorted, "Are you sure your other avatars are nearby?"

The Black Pharaoh looked Los up and down and said, "I'm curious, where did you get so much knowledge and information about me from?"

It's important to know that the name Nyarlathotep is a highly taboo subject in this world; there are only two humans on this planet who know this name.

Los calmly replied, "I doubt even you, with your own intelligence, would have thought of that."

The Black Pharaoh chuckled lightly: "It's alright, we'll have plenty of time to deal with each other in the future."

"Based on the current situation, you should already know when the stars are in their correct position, right?"

Los didn't answer, but instead asked, "You came all this way just for this?"

The Black Pharaoh looked around and said, “Who said I came from afar? For a long time, I have been wandering around the province of Massa to make sure that the ancient gods do not suddenly awaken.”

“I have been to Arkham more than once.”

"And they even established an organization called the Hand of Chaos here?" Los asked rhetorically.

Black Pharaoh was not surprised. Since the other party knew his name, it would be easy to guess which organization was related to him.

“I know this place very well, or rather, I know your family very well, because it was I who guided your ancestors here and established the town of Arkham. It was also I who gathered a large area of ​​ley lines here to strengthen the seal on those ancient gods.”

Hearing this, Los was still somewhat shocked. He hadn't expected that this guy had single-handedly brought about the creation of Arkham.

The Black Pharaoh continued, "My plan is to build the Arkham Sanatorium on the site of the Old Gods' tombs and to spread information about the Old Gods from here to the whole world."

"My plans have been going smoothly for the past century."

At this point, the Black Pharaoh said with sharp, cold eyes, "Until your sudden appearance."

“During my brief slumber, you swiftly wiped out my followers before they even had a chance to call for help or report to me, and then quickly took control of the entire Arkham, even bringing that little murloc under your command.”

"You even dared to impersonate me and establish an organization, Los Arkham. I have to admit that you, as a human, far exceed my expectations of humanity as a whole."

Los smiled and said, "I'll take all those words as a compliment from you, is that alright?"

The Black Pharaoh looked at Los and asked, "Do you think you've won?"

Los smiled and shook his head: "Of course not, but I have been a bit bored lately. Your appearance has made me interested in and hopeful about this world again."

The Black Pharaoh was taken aback at first, but then he astutely grasped the problem.

“As expected, you do not belong to this world,” the Black Pharaoh said.

Los admitted without changing his expression: "As expected of the Black Pharaoh, his thinking is indeed quick."

The Black Pharaoh said, "It seems that you, like that little queen, have no sense of belonging to this world. In that case, there doesn't seem to be any direct conflict between us."

After listening, Los nodded and said, "You're right about that. I really don't feel any sense of belonging to this world."

"but!"

Los then changed the subject: "Now I feel a strong sense of belonging to Arkham, while Sue feels no sense of belonging to this world because there is nothing in this world that she cares about."

“I am different from her. Arkham is a city that I created with my own hands. The buildings and streets here are all imbued with my heart and soul. The servants who follow me, worship me, and love me are real people. They are the ones who made me have a real connection with this world.”

"So, Black Pharaoh, we are not on the same side. You are not human. You are just a monster who wants to return everything to chaos, who craves chaos and darkness. But I, Los, am a true human."

The Black Pharaoh smiled slightly after hearing this, clapped his hands, and said, "Well said. I did underestimate your determination before, Los Arkham, but now I've changed my mind."

After saying this, the Black Pharaoh revealed a ferocious and twisted smile: "I will destroy the entire Arkham, and then, using Arkham's ley lines as an anchor point, gather the divine blood of all the ancient gods, pour it into the Dream Realm to form a massive magic array, thereby awakening the Star of Judgment and accelerating the universe's return to chaos!"

Los was not frightened after hearing this, but calmly commented, "Not bad plan, so that means the special space that appeared in Dunwich is indeed a dream world."

The Black Pharaoh sneered, "I heard you're planning to leave tomorrow to deal with the problems over there, but unfortunately for you, you can't leave now."

Just then, a black car stopped, and Danny hurriedly got out of the car: "Master, we have obtained crucial intelligence."

Before Danny could finish speaking, Los raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

Danny immediately understood, glanced cautiously at Black Pharaoh, and then obediently returned to the car.

Los looked at the Black Pharaoh and said, "It seems you came prepared this time."

“You seem to treat this world as a game, so how about we play a game?” the Black Pharaoh invited.

“Oh!? Tell me about it,” Los asked.

The Black Pharaoh said, "Now, the Imperial Military, through cooperation with the Ur and by selling out their technology, has gained the support of the Father God's Redemption Society, the Eye of Insight, and the Brotherhood of the Yellow King. They have now united and are preparing to completely annihilate Arkham."

Los said calmly, "What a whimsical idea."

The Black Pharaoh proposed his own rules: "This is a game of chess. Let's see whose pieces are stronger. Throughout the game, neither of us can make a move, and neither of us can give any hints or help to our pieces."

Los retorted, "I have an overwhelming advantage right now, so why should I listen to your suggestion?"

The Black Pharaoh retorted, "Do you believe... you are the only Ancient God in this world who can move freely?"

:. :x

Chapter 0372 Sorry, I'm not interested in your game.

Upon hearing the Black Pharaoh's words, Los instantly thought of the mysterious deity who had imprisoned the planet's native ancient god.

“Is that so? If there are other gods who can move freely, why don’t we see them moving around?” Los asked rhetorically.

He doesn't know the details of this world, but he has a clear memory of when he designed the Arkham universe.

In essence, Arkham's map is just a map for a mortal role-playing game group. To protect these observers, Los has clearly stipulated that no deity can directly come to the material world to influence humanity.

These deities include various gods from the Cthulhu Mythos, and naturally also various gods from this world.

After such a long period of time, Los can confirm that the rules he previously established are still applicable.

This is an era in which deities cannot manifest their divine power, including those ancient gods who are sealed away, and naturally also the deities who sealed those ancient gods.

Therefore, when facing the Black Pharaoh, Los had relatively high confidence.

Because he understood the Black Pharaoh, Nyarlathotep's avatar was more for bewitching humans, but its actual power was not yet enough to unleash the sealed ancient gods.

In addition, he has a better understanding of the rules he set.

Although those rules are quite vague, since some of the basic rules related to tabletop role-playing games have appeared in Arkham, they must apply to the entire world.

After all, he is one of the rule-makers of this world.

Upon hearing Los's question, a glint flashed in the Black Pharaoh's eyes. The confidence Los displayed was even more pronounced than his tone suggested.

"So, you disagree with my proposal?" the Black Pharaoh asked.

Los smiled and said, "Sorry, I have no interest in your game."

After hearing this, the Black Pharaoh stood up immediately, his face gradually turning cold: "In that case, Arkham really has no reason to continue existing."

Los also stood up, his sharp eyes fixed on the Black Pharaoh: "I don't know if Arkham has any reason to exist, but I do know that you have no reason to continue existing in this world."

In an instant, Los's immense power began to draw upon Arkham's vast ley lines, and then an indescribable special force completely enveloped the entire Arkham.

“The power of the earth’s veins is no match for the native inhabitants of this world, but it’s perfect for you outsiders.” Los’s eyes gleamed with a menacing light.

The Black Pharaoh's face was grim, and one could see some murky, dark matter gradually appearing in the space around him, then wriggling like countless insects.

In an instant, Los transformed into the majestic and powerful form of an ancient god.
