Zongman: Evolution Paradise

There are no internal troubles, but there are many external threats.

If it were just the Magic Fairy Castle empire, there would be nothing to fear, but the problem is that such an ancient and enduring empire is bound to have many more entanglements around it.

The planet of gloom is quite special; they are unlikely to form alliances or engage in political maneuvering. Therefore, they need to be wary of the Fairy Castle uniting with too many empires to invade their territory.

The gate to Ryudou Temple is right there, so this situation is quite troublesome, since Jolyne doesn't want Kanoko to take action unless absolutely necessary.

Because her appearance would make things more complicated. At that time, not just a few empires, but all the divine kingdoms of the fairy tale world would be focused on her, and Kanoko could not stay in the fairy tale world forever.

So, did she just sweep through the entire region?

Jolyne, who still doesn't know the exact strength of Kanoko, is still a bit hesitant. In the end, he decided to cultivate his own power to conquer the fairy tale world. He can't rely on Chiba Zoo for everything, can he? Why bother establishing the Ghost Story Association? He might as well devote himself entirely to inheriting Kanoko's power.

Fortunately, the matter has not yet reached an extremely urgent point. The Fairy Castle and the Kingdom are in the tentative stage of just discovering each other's existence. Before one or two formal conflicts break out, it is unlikely that the Fairy Castle will go all out and bring a bunch of strange tales over.

However, time flows too quickly in the fairy tale world. One day in the main world is equivalent to 576 hours in the fairy tale world. In order to prevent himself from waking up one day to receive a war alert from the kingdom, he must speed up his actions to start the next game.

As long as the next game begins.

Jolyne's playtime will be synchronized with the time in the fairy tale world.

Devil Fruits, Seraphic techniques, all three types of Haki, and swordsmanship... the various specialties of the One Piece world are undoubtedly the best way to help a kingdom improve its strength.

"Let's set it for within three days."

Jolyne set a goal for herself.

He needs to find Nakano Maruo to check if the equipment has been upgraded, he also needs to go to Chiba Zoo to find Chopper and get information about the One Piece world from his mouth, Medea needs to complete the transformation of the human-faced dog into a qualified ship girl, and he also needs to wait for Jorogumo to find a musician or sniper...

Just then, Kanroji Mitsuri returned, still holding Jeanne in her arms. However, Jeanne had grown up after spending some time in the fairy tale world and now looked like a two- or three-year-old white-haired toddler.

Upon seeing Jolyne, the white-haired girl's beautiful face scrunched up, and she broke free from Mitsuri Kanroji's embrace, her face turning red and her hair turning black.

"Huh? Joan of Arc?"

Kanroji Mitsuri was shocked, completely unaware that Jeanne d'Arc's strength had now surpassed hers.

"The contract is in effect! How dare you entrust the young King to those two succubi for upbringing!"

Joan of Arc tilted her head back, raised her delicate fist, and fiercely accused Jolyne of her crimes.

She had a lot of complaints about Jolyne, not only because of the two succubi, but mainly because Jolyne hadn't visited her even once during this time!

Not even once!

We signed a contract, yet you borrowed my power countless times, while completely ignoring me like a dispensable accessory.

If she hadn't recently learned to speak, Joan of Arc would still be lying in the White Tower.

Jolyne: "..."

He forgot that Black Jeanne d'Arc craves care and love more.

The problem is that from Jolyne's perspective, he only spent one day in the main world. So, can such a bad thing really happen when the time flow is so different?

Well, now he has another task: to appease this white-haired little girl.

Want to play games together?

Jolyne bent down and picked up Joan of Arc. Joan of Arc, who was originally angry, suddenly tensed up and almost couldn't hide her anger. She crossed her arms and let out a cold snort, barely managing to suppress her inner panic.

"Tch, do as you please. Do you think this kind of thing will make me forgive your rudeness?"

"...Tsundere has been relegated to the meta, Jeanne Alter. Now, taking a straightforward, orthopedic approach is more marketable."

Jolyne has a lot to say about her.

From the character design, Jeanne Alter's personality is a combination of tsundere, mean-spirited, silly, and love-starved. Her tsundere and mean-spiritedness are a protective layer, while her silly, silly, and love-starved nature is her true essence; otherwise, she wouldn't be so popular.

However, this Jeanne Alter is a bit special. For example, the normal Jeanne Alter would not refer to herself as "this king". Obviously, we cannot rely entirely on the setting to judge this unique individual.

"How about LA? I saw Hanako and the others playing this game before, and it looked pretty fun," Mitsuri Kanroji suggested from the side.

"Age of Legends?"

Jolyne remembered this.

"Hey, I haven't agreed yet!"

"Will Joan of Arc refuse?"

"This...isn't it either..."

Jeanne was a little embarrassed and angry, but unfortunately, she didn't seem to have any intimidating power in her current state. On the contrary, Mitsuri Kanroji couldn't help but pick up Jeanne from Jolyne and start teasing her. She really likes children, so it seems that Ai Haibara's position is in jeopardy.

Age of Legends!

Legendary Age is an online role-playing game developed by Argus, which supports multiple players adventuring in a virtual world.

The company behind this Hundred-Eyed Giants is ARGUS, the company that created SAO in the Sword Art Online anime. Perhaps because the neon lights of this world belong to the Ming Dynasty, the company's official name is not in English, but rather uses the Chinese translation of the word "Hundred-Eyed Giants".

Not long ago, Jolyne casually killed Nobuyuki Sugo, a researcher at this company, in the Fate world, but so far there has been no follow-up to this matter, or rather, the more important [Yin Yang Road] has not come to retaliate.

Most of the game's content is free, and the in-app purchases allow hardcore players to earn money. Coupled with its high-quality production and continuous optimization of the experience, and backed by Argus, a globally renowned gaming giant, the Legends Era is as famous in the main world as League of Legends was in its previous life.

Midway through, they encountered Shiina Mahiru, Yukino Miyuki, and Marikawa Shizuka, and the three of them followed them to the e-sports room to try out this legendary game.

Open the game page.

The pop-up window displays promotional offers.

[Nintendo Collaboration! Log in for seven consecutive days and complete farm tasks to get the Eevee pet!]

[Prayer Pool Updated! Grotton and Milton Collaboration: Premium Quality Vehicles!]

Jolyne chose a two-handed swordsman, immediately spent all her money to reach the highest level and acquire the Millerdon vehicle and the Magic Mask Cat suit, only to find an unfamiliar priest kneeling next to her character.

The other party also sent a friend request.

Heaven: Boss, please prepare a newly released healing staff for the angel who has fallen on earth. I will sing your praises of mercy and bless you every day. If you could also order me some takeout while you're at it, that would be even better...

Jolyne, level 1 and gleaming with diamond light: "..."

Could this person be...Gabriel?

Chapter 415 Dreamland

Angels, demons, dragons...

The various strange species may seem out of place, but their appearance is actually not complicated. A closer look reveals three different "origins".

First, the original inhabitants of the main world.

Ghost stories like Hanako and Sadako, and the eccentric students of Soubu University—because the Fukuchi region keeps integrating harmless worlds with everyday labels into the main world, the native inhabitants always manage to come up with names that make Jolyne want to call the police.

It's no exaggeration to say that Jolyne dealt with as many types of perverts during her elementary school years as the Liberty Federation had genders.

Secondly, there are the player's followers, spirit pets, etc.

Characters like Yukino Fuyuki and Jorogumo, who appear in the main world, belong to this category.

The third type comes from blessed lands.

The harmless world merged into the main world, while the harmful world merged into the blessed land. Naturally, the part that merged into the blessed land could not have slaughtered all creatures.

In fact, the number of players is pitifully small compared to the number of worlds, so much so that after conquering those worlds, players usually don't kill them, but instead subdue them into [followers]. A simple example is Jolyne's actions in the fairy tale world, where she subdued the local ghost stories.

In this environment, many weaker worlds have already surrendered as soon as they are integrated into the blessed land. The only question is which side they surrender to. That's right, even worlds like the bizarre Journey to the West that haven't been defeated yet will recruit soldiers and form alliances in the blessed land!

Or rather, it is precisely because those worlds united with each other and continued to grow by taking advantage of the characteristics of the blessed land that they have never been attacked by the players' forces.

According to information obtained by Ai Haibara, Kanna's group of dragons belong to the blessed land's inhabitants.

After surrendering to the main world, their inherent strength will naturally lead to better treatment. They can stay in the blessed land as before, and after evaluation, they can obtain an entry green card to live in the main world, or even get rid of their contract worker status and officially join Takamagahara.

If this guy really is Gabriel, he must have come from the blessed land.

"So Gabriel's Doomsday Horn should have been taken away by now, right? Otherwise, given her current state of corruption, if she were to take out the horn and say 'Doomsday,' she would be sent to the Blessed Land."

Even if she possessed the Doomsday Horn, it wouldn't necessarily make her a musician.

Jolyne clicked "accept" on the request, testing whether the person on the other end was indeed Gabriel. The information revealed left Gabriel, who was sitting in front of her computer on the other side of the screen hungry, completely bewildered, thinking she had been scammed.

Are you still playing?

Joan of Arc was quite dissatisfied with being neglected.

Although Shiina Mahiru and Yukino Fuyuki were quite fond of her presence and both revolved around Jeanne, Jeanne longed to be cared for more by Jolyne.

“Of course.” Jolyne said goodbye to Gabriel, ignoring the wish list she kept mentioning.

"Let me see..." Mitsuri Kanroji said, opening her phone to search for information. "According to the guide, the wolf pack outside the city is a good place for beginners to level up..."

"That's a guide for casual players; it's more suitable for paying players to go to the wolf den deep in the forest."

Everyone has plenty of money. Even Mrs. Yukino, who was so poor before that she couldn't afford the rent, now has an incredibly full wallet.

LA is quite interesting because the characters' attacks can actually harm their teammates, and healing and blessing can even be cast on wild monsters. The game's freedom is almost unrealistic.

But it's precisely because it's not real that it's supposed to be.

Argus Corporation includes players, and such a large entity must have powerful backers.

Jolyne simply didn't investigate, so he didn't know which faction it was.

Since Shiina Mahiru knew the players, Jolyne didn't hide anything and played the game with them while complaining about the various troubles she had encountered these past few days.

Joan of Arc is indeed adorably clumsy; she's incredibly clumsy and disorganized when playing games, and despite her superhuman reflexes, she always manages to land her attacks on her teammates.

Fortunately, apart from Jolyne and Shiina Mahiru, the others are just as incompetent as Jeanne d'Arc.

"The boss is in phase two, be careful to dodge."

Where do you want to go?

Yukino, the ice mage of deep winter, hesitated between left and right before being trampled to death by the wolf king. She was immediately ashamed and remained silent with her face flushed. Jolyne's swordsman seized the opportunity and used a combo to wipe out the wolf king's last bit of health.

"I got an Ice Spike Staff, but it's not a limited edition, so I have to farm it all over again."

Jolyne tapped the handle, stretched, and leaned against Shizuka Marikawa's soft, plump thighs. Jeanne d'Arc immediately looked over, somewhat annoyed.

Jolyne didn't notice because Shizuka Marikawa was tickling his ear, and at the same time, a lot of blurry images suddenly appeared in his view that couldn't see the ceiling.

A sheep in a wheelchair, a flying elephant, a stone with six legs... and a bearded bandit soldier raising a rusty, chipped knife to slash at him.

"what is this?"

Jolyne was fully conscious. He was trying to figure out how this illusion, which made him feel like he was in a witch's barrier, had appeared before him. After sensing it for a while, he realized that it was because his ability had been triggered.

"I'll take a nap first, don't worry."

"Huh? Sleeping here?"

……

The evil gaze of the abyss surges forth.

The [Listener] talent shines brightly.

Skills and talents call to each other. [Capricorn] sent a video call invitation to Jolyne from outside the world. The Listener talent naturally has no button to refuse, but unfortunately Jolyne's workshop does. Not only does it have it, but it can also cover Jolyne's screen privacy with one click.

Jolyne's choice was naturally to accept it with her eyes closed.

The blue light from the eye sockets illuminates the starry sky.

Guided, his soul appeared in a warm ocean and sank deeper and deeper. The stardust-strewn sea tried to exert pressure, but Jolyne casually observed this torrent of information without any hindrance.

...Sequence - The essence of the ignorant, three schemers...The crystallization of human history...Making the world forget its own existence and achievements...

It sank all the way down to nine zhang and nine chi.

The world is upside down.

Jolyne's soul then broke free of the water.

Unlike the previous observation from afar, this time he appeared directly in front of Jie.

The Capricorn has the head of a ram and the body of a goat. Its four hooves land on the four celestial bodies as they have before. Divine knowledge, enough to make ordinary people lose control, flows through its wool, and with a soft bleat, it turns the starry sky day and night.

Jolyne wiped the water off his face. He was now floating on a white sea that smelled of milk. Looking up, he could see the body of Capricorn. He really wanted to complain: Do all the evil gods of the Croesus type like to mess with him so much?

"So, why are you looking for me?"

Joren asked Him.
