Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 638: The Secret of the Netherworld
The Deathbringer summoned Fab to Paradise?!
What the hell, he remembered...

Ding--! !

……

The person who held the death: “Have you completed the confirmation?”

Black Sword: "Don't do anything yet, I do know this guy, wait there for a moment, I'll be right over!"

……

Before Xin Lailai could think clearly, he saw a new message coming, which made Xin Lailai alert. He quickly shook off his sleepiness, quickly replied, opened the branding interface, entered the space coordinates provided by the deceased, and quickly pressed the transmission option.

The next second, a light blue beam of light descended, causing the scene in front of Xin Lailai to distort briefly, and it quickly changed from the silver-white empty training ground to an extremely remote alley.

Almost as soon as they landed, a lot of ping-pong noises rang out from all directions. Hundreds of flyer-carrying men were seen using the walls on both sides of the alley as their battlefield, fighting fiercely in this dark alley for this "battlefield" with only one door.

Sure enough, a place like this couldn't escape the clutches of the Sun God Cult and the Element God Cult...

Come to think of it, they seemed to have ignored the situation on the door of their exclusive room for a long time. I wonder how many generations of flyers there have been refreshed?
Xin Lailai glanced at the flyers around her that were about to fly off sparks, her eyes twitched slightly, she walked over, used the crystal element technique to knock away two flyer figures that were performing the "Qin Emperor circling the pillar" trick at the door handle, and pressed the doorbell.

Ding~!

The crisp doorbell rang, and the flyers standing on the edge of the door scattered. The next second, a faint scent of incense wafted over, and the door in front of them opened with a not-so-heavy sound, revealing the scene inside the room, and a thin figure flying towards Xin Lailai's thighs -

"Master Black Sword! Woohoo... You're finally here. Fab has missed you so much!!"

An excited cry as if he had found a savior was heard. The necromancer, who was without even a cloth robe and only had a skeleton on his body, clung to Xin Lailai's thighs like an octopus, looking as if he had been pardoned.

"Hey, Fab, stop for a moment. If you have something to say, go inside and talk. Don't worry, I'm here. She won't kill you directly."

Xin Lailai looked at the skeletal necromancer who was clinging to his thigh like a pendant, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. He coughed lightly and lifted him up with the crystal element technique. Then he looked up at the death bearer who was holding a pitch-black long knife in front of him. He sensed the death aura on the other side, which was much more terrifying than that on the White Star. His eyelids twitched slightly and he spoke:

"I say, has your charm attribute dropped again?"

"Yes, it has dropped."

"..."

The Death Bearer replied indifferently, glanced at Xin Lailai who didn't know what to say and Fabu who was held in the air, and said:

"Come in, remember to close the door, and feel free to change your shoes."

After saying that, the Death Eater turned around and walked into the room. After closing the door, Xin Lailai followed him, carrying Fab. Following the Death Eater's footsteps, they came to a living room filled with various dolls and gorgeous dresses that were obviously not prepared for the Death Eater himself.

"So, what's going on?"

"Uh, Lord Black Sword, I originally..."

"Ask her, Fab, wait a moment."

“Got it… Got it!”

In the living room, Fabu realized that he had answered first and quickly covered the mouth of the skull with his two obviously leaky skeleton palms, fearing that he would say something wrong. The Death Bearer glanced at the summoning array drawn in the living room and said:

"I went back to the Netherworld this time to retrieve some things that belong to the Netherworld inheritance, which includes some of the core abilities of the Netherworld Lord."

"One of the abilities allows me to contract a permanent summon that suits my own system and needs. I tried it according to the formation given in the inheritance and summoned it."

The person holding the deceased spoke calmly, and quickly explained the whole process of the incident in concise and crisp words.

As the first inheritor of the Netherworld since ancient times, her profession has a lot of abilities that have been dormant for a long time, and she needs to retrieve or awaken them on her own. This is why she needs to enter the Netherworld for 1-2 days after each return, because some abilities must be mastered in the environment of the Netherworld.

This time, what the Death Bearer retrieved was an ability called "Netherworld Brand", which could form a special Netherworld Brand and grant it to its own permanent summoned creature, allowing it to have a chance for "Netherworld Baptism", transforming it into an exclusive summoned creature that far surpassed the existence of ordinary summoned creatures, gaining all kinds of incredible powers related to the Netherworld.

As for what kind of incredible method it is, let's just say that in the Netherworld, there is actually a special name for the summoned creatures that received the "Netherworld Mark" beside the former first generation Netherworld Lord -

"Lord of the Underworld".

That’s right, the so-called “Lords of the Underworld” who exist in the Underworld today, those lords who once occupied two palms’ worth of top seats in the star realm in the White Night Era and who still maintain combat power second only to the top, are actually the followers of the first generation “Lord of the Underworld”.

Even the "Lord of the Underworld" recorded in various biographies, who was defeated by the Everlight Lords with his own strength. According to the dead, the other party... or the strong man corresponding to the "Mark of the Underworld" in the hands of the other party should actually be called "Lord of the Underworld". His ability is to ignore the limitations of various conventional undead systems and resurrect various dead people to fight for himself.

As for why the original "Lord of the Underworld" would become the "Lord of the Underworld" later, this is actually the least surprising thing.

According to the secrets told by the deceased, after the death of the first Lord of the Underworld, six of the nine great kings at that time chose to start a war, wanting to control this vast world that had lost its true ruler, and the "Lord of the Underworld" became the winner, and thus the "Lord of the Underworld" known to the outside world came into being, and that was all.

-By the way, the "Mark of the Underworld" that the Dead Man retrieved this time corresponds to the same inheritance direction as the "Lord of the Underworld" in the past.

In other words, as long as a suitable summoned creature is found to inherit the Netherworld Mark, the Death Master will instantly have a powerful undead helper with unlimited potential.

Furthermore, according to the "Mark of the Underworld", the strength of the summoned creatures will be enhanced according to the strength of the Underworld Inheritor himself, and the characteristic of the Underworld Lord system is "summon and use immediately", the training cost of this undead system is also abnormally low.

To be specific, it is equivalent to only needing about 1/3 to 1/4 of the resources of the regular Undead system to obtain an Undead summon that is more powerful than the regular Undead contractor, and the growth limit of this summon is many times higher than that of the Undead system that even the strongest finds difficult to break through.

Although this description sounds like it would lower the status of the regular Undead system, in fact, the Undead system in the paradise is indeed such an embarrassing existence compared to the truly top inheritances.

They are also the three recognized daddies in Paradise. Among them, even if the Techniques and Magicians are thrown into the Star Realm, they are still the big daddy-level existences that countless forces fear. But if you throw the Undead system out for comparison, you will find that they are basically the kind that cannot be found.

This is not to belittle the Undead System, but the situation of the Undead System itself is so embarrassing. In other words, the so-called Undead System is actually just a small system branch that combines the Death System and the Summoning System. The reason why it can have such strength in Paradise is entirely because of Paradise's fast frequency + short stay + high difficulty training mode, which is extremely suitable for the Undead System that can use local materials, quickly take shape, and make up for its shortcomings within a certain range.

But in fact, the upper limit of the normal Undead system cannot be compared with that of the Technical System and the Spell System. If it develops normally, even the strongest ones will find it extremely difficult to break through. Even in the late stage, many Undead systems that barely squeeze into the strongest will find that their proud Undead army, when thrown into those earth-shattering battles, often cannot even make a wave and are wiped out by the aftermath.

This is the current situation of orthodox undead contractors. They are not weak in the early stage, and become stronger and stronger in the middle and late stages. In the very late stage, they can have a moment of brilliance when they first become extremely strong, and then quickly fall to the point where they cannot be found. For example, the famous undead masters in the Paradise camp are basically undead + spells/techniques. They rely on the undead system to transition in the early and middle stages, and in the late stage they will begin to shift their focus to the direction of mages or techniques.

Including the Hades they encountered at the beginning. The opponent's undead methods were standard enough, right? But after the fight, didn't he still use various large-scale magic and magic arrays that only mages could play as trump cards? This is reality.

After all, if we really talk about human wave tactics, the Undead System is fine within the super top echelon, but once it rises to the outer echelon, the so-called undead army of the Undead System will really feel like a child fighting with an adult compared to the abyss creatures that pollute the entire world at will.

Of course, if compared with the orthodox summoning system in Paradise, the Undead system is indeed doing quite well. At least before the arrival of the strongest threshold, as long as you work hard, you can at least have the strength of the top echelon. If you have good talent, it is not difficult to reach the super top echelon. Although the chance of reaching the outer echelon is about a hundred times lower than that of the skill and magic system, it is not without probability. On the other hand, the orthodox summoning system is really about to disappear from Paradise.

"So, what you mean is that you originally intended to use the summoning array recorded in the Netherworld Heritage to summon a creature that matched the Netherworld Mark, but you accidentally summoned Fabu?"

"Ah."

"Um, can I ask what summoning tendency you set when you summon?"

"Not easy to die, has auxiliary abilities, and fits the inheritance of the Lord of the Underworld."

"..."

Hearing the answer from the executioner, Xin Lailai looked at Fabu who was shivering beside him, and his expression twitched slightly.

To be honest, he could understand the reason why the Deathbringer set these summoning requirements. Unlike the orthodox undead system, the other party did not need a summon with strong enough frontal combat power to protect itself. Instead, it needed an auxiliary personnel who could make up for the shortcomings. But because of this, he knew more clearly how far Fab was from the Deathbringer's expected goal. In other words, what the Deathbringer had in mind was actually a strong undead creature similar to Akado, the "River of Death" in the Hellsing world, who had enough combat power to protect himself, had multiple means to ensure functionality, and was very compatible with the system of the Lord of the Underworld.

However, what the opponent actually summoned was a little undead skeleton who was extremely afraid of death, could do nothing but survive, and could be used as a summoned creature by the Undead. In this case, let alone the Deathbringer, even if he was in his place, he would probably have to kill Fabu and draw another card.

"Can I ask how much your summoning array costs for one summon?"

"Including the cost of various materials, 5 million Paradise Points, and the cooldown period is more than a month."

"..."

Very good, now I have enough to buy 1000 undead summons of the same level as Fabu and still have some left.

"I'm curious how you managed not to kill it right away?"

"As soon as it came up, it called out your name and said it knew you."

Huh? You called his name right away?
“Well… well, I… I saw that this gentleman had a strong aura of death, and I thought he was one of Ainz-sama’s men, so I…”

Fabu said hesitantly, looking at the death bearer in front of him, the soul fire in the skeleton's eye sockets shrank fiercely, and it seemed that he was very afraid of the other party.

"You... Never mind. This can be considered a blessing in disguise for you. However, I am more curious about why you are here."

When Xin Lailai heard Fabu's answer, he was choked for a moment, not knowing how to complain. Then he looked at the really skinny skeleton necromancer in front of him, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Yes, compared to the others, the most explainable difference now is why Fab, who is in the Overlord world, can appear here.

You have to know that the Deathbringer prepared a summoning ceremony worth 5 million. Logically speaking, it should only summon overlord-level creatures from a certain native world. It shouldn't be the turn of a guy like Fabu who is so weak that he has to flee miles away after being hit by a holy light spell. Not to mention that the other party is just a character from a derivative world, the kind that is not even unique, and his worth is not worth it at all...

Wait, uniqueness?!

Suddenly, Xin Lailai seemed to have thought of something, looked fiercely at Fabu, threw an ordinary detection spell at him, and then froze.

[Tip: The current unit has been notarized by the Sanctuary Paradise, and the detection rank has been greatly increased. This detection can only obtain 87% of the current unit's information]

“Notarized…”

Xin Lailai looked at the prompt in front of him and muttered, and at the same time suddenly realized a detail:
——From the beginning, he and the Deathbringer had been speaking Paradise language instead of the native language of the Overlord world, but Fab could still understand what they were saying.

——Although according to the setting that all units in the Overlord world have a "proficient translation" feature, it is not surprising that the other party can understand what he is saying, but this is Paradise. Normally, the other party's translation ability supported by the Overlord world should have become invalid long ago!

"Fab, Bones...how is Lord Ainz doing?!"

“Ainz…ah! Right…right! Lord Black Sword, I…I forgot to tell you that during your absence, many strong men similar to you appeared on Lord Ainz Ooal Gown’s side. They have been attacking Lord Ainz’s kingdom, and I was so scared that I didn’t even dare to show my face.”

A large number of contractors appeared and attacked Bone King?
Hearing Fabu's answer, Xin Lailai's eyes moved slightly, and he asked decisively:
"The results of it?"

"The result... I don't know much about it. Today, with the help of my undead, I found that the fighting over there seemed to have ceased, so I wanted to go over and take a look. As a result, I was suddenly summoned here by this lord."

Fabu answered tremblingly, and Xinlailai listened to the other party's story, and a lot of ideas suddenly popped up in his mind.

Fighting, ceasefire, and the summoning of Fab with 5 million Paradise Points...

Is it possible...!
[Hint: Do you want to use the derived world self-selection permission? ]

[Hint: Searching for target derivative world: Overlord (Eternal Tribulation Snake Ring)]

[Tip: Search failed, no relevant world information! ! ! ]

really! ! !

"Death bearer, I want to ask you something."

"ask."

"Have you seen Overlord? I mean the kind that can remember the impression of Bone King?"

"Look through the information."

"Very good. Now try to find a picture that matches your memory of Bone King and send it to me."

"picture?"

In the living room, the Death Executioner's eyes flickered slightly when he heard Sinlailai's request, and then he seemed to understand something, nodded, opened the branding interface, entered the public search engine, and casually found a picture of the impression of Ainz Ooal Gown and sent it to Sinlailai.

"Is this one okay?"

"Well, it's alright."

Xin Lailai said, nodded slightly, took out a small printer from the storage space, printed out the picture sent by the deceased with a series of printing sounds, handed it to Fabu, and said:

"Fab, do you know anyone up here?"

“Here? This isn’t Ainz… Eh, it doesn’t look like him. Ainz-sama’s soul fire should be red, right? And that gem, I remember it was spherical…”

When Fab heard Sinlailai's answer, he immediately looked at the printed paper that Sinlailai had given him. After seeing the person on it clearly, he subconsciously wanted to say the name of Ainz Ooal Gown, but then he realized something was wrong and subconsciously muttered.

"Okay, that's enough."

As Xin Lailai watched this scene, his eyes gradually turned into certainty. Finally, he raised his hand to stop Fabu, looked at the calm death bearer, and said:

"If nothing unexpected happens, you should also understand what's going on, right?"

"almost."

"Tsk, I just had that hunch at the beginning, but I didn't expect it to come true. However, considering that Fabu has no memory of obtaining information related to the derivative world, it should be just a matter of luck that it was affected."

Xin Lailai rubbed his temple gently and spoke, with a complex look in his dark pupils.

The world that could not be found, the image of Ainz Ooal Gown that he and Fab had misunderstood, and the notarial power of Fab...

At this point, the answer is actually self-evident.

Ainz Ooal Gown, or rather, the Ainz Ooal Gown in his and Fab's memories...

——Successfully "upgraded".
