Zongman: Evolution Paradise

Having prepared herself mentally, Jolyne asked, "What's the name of that merged Cthulhu world?"

Chopper replied, "Abyssal Demons."

Chapter 420 Yin Tianzi

"Abyssal demons?"

It sounds like just an ordinary world of the Kelvin type, without too many mixed elements. If it were prefixed with something like the late Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, it would be much more complicated. However, a single world doesn't necessarily mean it's weak. The danger level of this Abyss Demon is obviously very high.

Having reached this point in the conversation, Jolyne had nothing more to ask. She briefly mentioned Rin Tohsaka and Sakura Matou before heading to find Maruo Nakano.

"Is it really okay to openly use Chiba Zoo's resources to develop your own team?" Chopper tilted his head and then remembered something else. "Oh right, the Kowloon Society sent you a gift."

"Gift?"

Soon Jolyne had a Pokémon egg in her hand.

"The person who brought it said it was a Gastly, and it could evolve into a Gengar with simple training."

"Is this what they call the underworld?"

Jolyne complained that he did say he really liked that Gengar in the arena, and then he got a Pokémon egg as a result.

"By the way, what's the relationship between Chiba Zoo and those powerful forces?" Jolyne asked.

The fact that the Kowloon Society can stay in Chiba already shows that they are at least not enemies with the Chiba Zoo, but what about the other forces? Jolyne wanted to ask them in case she accidentally caused trouble by revealing her identity one day.

"Um... Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) and Fukumi Shrine, these two are basically sworn enemies."

"Is there some kind of conflict between you?"

"Lady Kanoko killed an S-rank shrine member from Fubuki Shrine a few years ago. As for the conflict surrounding the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons), it's a bit complicated. You can simply understand it as Chiba Zoo taking away some of the profits they wanted..."

After the establishment of the Preservation Institute, the existence of the Blessed Land has brought the main world into a phase of seeking common ground while reserving differences, peaceful development and external expansion. In the past, it was one thing for everyone to fight to the death and kill each other in one world, but now it would be too much to take action. Jolyne remembered the Sea Shrine and the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons before bidding farewell to Chopper.

……

Deer God Shrine.

backyard.

Since Nakano Maruo's strength was unknown, Jolyne did not want to meet him in private, so she contacted Nakano Satsuki to tell him that Nakano Maruo would still meet at the shrine.

The fairy egg was placed on a soft cushion, occasionally shaking and emitting light, looking like it would hatch soon. Kallen, dressed in a red and white shrine maiden outfit, sat beside it in a duck-like posture, closing her eyes to sense the life inside.

What does this new life eat after it is born?

Karen asked curiously.

"Um, should we go find those two succubi?" Although we don't have Miltank from the Pokémon world, succubi, being extraordinary creatures, should be able to meet the needs of Pokémon. Or, Gastly could just stay in a fairy tale world and eat some fear-related energy, right? Since the Kowloon Society didn't provide a raising guide, Gastly should be easy to raise.

"Okay." Karen blinked. Her aura had become much stronger. With the nurturing of various resources, her strength would continue to grow even if she did nothing. Not to mention, Karen was naturally serious and hardworking.

She pretended to be carefully observing the fairy egg, her fingers secretly reaching out to touch Jolyne. Kallen was somewhat nostalgic for their last kiss and planned to try it again today.

Unfortunately, a figure suddenly appeared, and Karen's fingers immediately recoiled in surprise.

The person who came was naturally Nakano Maruo, and Nakano Satsuki was standing behind him.

Satsuki Nakano: "Hi."

"Hi."

Jolyne responded to her somewhat strangely.

After a few days apart, Nakano Maruo was still wearing the same suit and had the same expressionless face. The problem was that Nakano Satsuki didn't smile either. Her straight, uncurved mouth showed that she was full of worries. Her previous naivety had completely faded away.

Without further ado, Nakano Maruo produced a ball of black light, which Jolyne took. The black light transformed in his hand.

Unlike the previous black trench coat, it is now a dragon robe, pure black without any other colors, with only a more profound, seemingly alive six-clawed black dragon embroidered on it.

And the information on the panel:

Equipment - Underworld Emperor

Description: Mo Yan has no retribution; the gods and ghosts have their own plans.

Effect-1- Netherworld: This equipment forms its own Netherworld, which can contain demons and monsters of the world, and can also grant Netherworld titles to wandering ghosts.

Effect-2-Emperor: All lands of Youdu are under the Emperor's feet, and all people of Youdu benefit from the Emperor. All ghosts marked by this equipment will provide you with a certain amount of specific fortune and a true shield. You can also actively burn the souls within Youdu to transfer your injuries and temporarily increase your intelligence attribute.

Effect -3 - Soul Hook: This equipment is a set and comes with a King's Sword with the power to hook souls. The power of this sword is determined by the quality and quantity of ghosts in the Netherworld.

Effect-4- Yin God: With this equipment, you can use the power of the soul, corruption, shadow and other fields without any cost. Moreover, these abilities are blessed by divinity, making them even more bizarre and irresistible.

Effect-5-Spirit: Loadable...

Bonus: Intelligence +10

Requirements: Intelligence 100, Divinity, establish a ghost kingdom and ascend the throne.

"Looks pretty good."

I haven't tried it yet. Just looking at the five functions on the panel, although it can be said to be top-notch equipment, it doesn't really surprise Jolyne as much as before.

"You'll understand once you use it; the panel's description is rather concise." Nakano Maruo had already noticed Jolyne's drastic attribute changes, but the Listener talent was originally a gift from him. "To limit the usage conditions to what you can use right now, the craftsman had to remove the numerical values, retain the mechanics, and increase the equipment's potential for future growth..."

Intelligence 100

Possessing divinity,

Establish a ghost kingdom and ascend the throne.

The basic attribute requirement is universal, and Jolyne has already stated that there is a way to solve the problem of divinity. Jolyne has already fulfilled the last seemingly troublesome condition.

It can be said that the conditions for using this equipment were originally custom-made for Jolyne.

Hmm... It's obvious that Nakano Maruo can learn about the fairy tale world through Nakano Satsuki.

"...Then let's give it a try."

Jolyne took out a golden seed of power, which was the divinity he had stripped from Anna. He used it on himself, turning his eyes gold and revealing the triangular crown on his head.

Upon equipping the [Emperor of the Underworld], Jolyne discovered that the equipment's original transformative abilities remained intact.

However, this was a minor matter; Jolyne sensed the Ulduar described in the equipment description.

This space is no longer as narrow as before; instead, it is extremely spacious, already the size of a city before any resources have been consumed to allow the equipment to grow.

At that moment, Jolyne had a sudden thought, and the sky outside the Deer God Shrine changed.

Chapter 421 The Official Game of Dividing the Quintessential Quintuplets

As Yotsuya Miko and Nibutō Yuria, who were making Deer God merchandise, sensed something, they opened their Yin-Yang Eyes, which they could now control at will, and looked at the sky and the suffocating threat around them.

The sky, which had been dark due to the presence of various evil spirits, had turned completely black.

Nine layers of deep, dark clouds filled the sky, and the floor disappeared, turning into yellow mud. Just standing on it, Yotsuya Miko and Nibutō Yuria were already stiff, their souls surging against their bodies, trying to break free from the shackles of their flesh and merge into this special space to disappear.

Those evil spirits that kept shouting "Can you see me?" were directly evaporated into air currents, and thousands of evil spirit air currents gathered together like an evil wind.

The next moment, all of this vanished, as if it were a fantasy of accidentally wandering into a dark, frozen wasteland.

……

Jolyne put away the Netherworld and discovered that it was a plus-upgraded version of the original Realm of Magic - the Spirit Abode. If the previous one was the closest thing to magic, then the current one truly transcends the difference between magic and magic.

"and……"

After a moment's thought, a golden Yinluo Spirit Chamber reappeared in Joren's hand. The original version of this equipment had become a consumable for the Yin Emperor, and this Yinluo Spirit Chamber was now copied by Medea using the River God's [Copy] skill.

Jolyne transferred all the seafood souls inside into her new equipment, [Yin Tian Zi], and then took out a black sphere, which was the evil spirit that had appeared in Youdu a moment ago and been refined near the Deer God Shrine.

The evil spirits and the seafood souls gathered, and for some unknown reason, Jolyne discovered, with a strange expression, that a life had been born in her Netherworld.

A complete life, no longer incomplete.

She has light blue hair, is a little over 1.4 meters tall, and her clothes have goldfish-like features.

This is a newly born ghost story.

Previously, both the Yinluo Robe and the Yinluo Spirit Mansion had the power to allow souls to transform within them, but unfortunately only a few, such as Kallen, were produced. Furthermore, the seafood souls of the main world failed to give birth to a single ghost story.

Now, Jolyne can simply create a ghost story for anyone she wants right there in the City of the Dead.

This means bestowing a ghostly position upon someone.

This feature surprised Jolyne. He had already figured out how to use it. He was going to go on a killing spree in the One Piece world. After he finished killing, the souls of those powerful beings wouldn't be wasted. They could be directly invested in the kingdom to contribute to Jolyne's great cause of unifying the fairy tale world.

"You shall be called Princess Goldfish."

Jolyne named it directly, and seeing that the Goldfish Princess was newly born and not very intelligent, he casually sent it to the fairy tale world so that it could continue to grow there.

As for the other functions and combat-related aspects, Jolyne plans to look into them later, since he has already determined that the power of this Yin Emperor's item is far more than what is written on the panel.

"That's it."

Nakano Maruo stood up to leave. "Three days will pass quickly. They will start their first official game in May. I'll leave their affairs to you. I have other things to take care of."

As he spoke, he gave Jolyne a deep look, waved his hand and left without even taking Nakano Satsuki with him, as if he didn't want to have any more contact with Jolyne. However, Jolyne didn't want to have any contact with him either.

What about the next game?

Nakano Satsuki, who stayed behind, asked that her next game was coming soon, and she needed to prepare in advance today in case the Paradise Game suddenly appeared.

Jolyne: "I remember reminding you last time to save all your Paradise Coins. I'll have Jorogumo equip you with a series of skills and bloodlines so we can snowball before the next game."

These are all part of the transaction. With the workshop around, Nakano Satsuki can improve her strength without any worries. Otherwise, the risk of losing control is very high. When Nakano Satsuki's strength far exceeds her own player level, she can learn from Jolyne and sweep through Paradise.

Aren't you coming with us this time?

The speaker was Nino Nakano, whose face also showed signs of worry. She was no longer the love-struck girl who wanted to get closer to Jolyne as soon as she saw her, which made Jolyne wonder what they had been through. Could it be that they had been contracted by Kyubey and turned into magical girls?

"The Paradise Coins are all waiting for your arrangements, but the Paradise isn't just about strength, or rather, that strength isn't enough until you can crush everything."

We can't be sure what world the amusement park will put us in next. What if the next world is another advanced world like a ghost story or fairy tale? There's still a chance of danger..."

Even if Jolyne herself participated in the game, she would encounter Kibutsuji Muzan, whom she couldn't defeat in a short time, or special modes like Heroic Spirits, which weren't meant for players to be the main combat force... Nakano Satsuki and the others could indeed survive in the game with just the strength boost from the workshop, but what they needed was an S rank, which couldn't be solved with just a little strength.

It is precisely because of this situation that Jolyne is not in a hurry for Rin Tohsaka and Sakura Matou to grow. There is no use in being in a hurry. Apart from strength and information, luck is also an important factor in becoming an S-class.

The world I encountered...

Task mode...

Various opportunities...

Power can be obtained from the workshop, and information can be revealed from Jolyne's mouth. Only luck is something that cannot be acquired. The reason why Jolyne believed that Rin Tohsaka and Sakura Matou could grow to S-rank was simply because they were protagonists who came with their own luck.

The five Nakano sisters have merged into one. According to Nakano Maruo, if they want to separate from Nakano Itsuki's body without any problems, they must become S and use the power of Paradise Skills to sublimate.

"Tsk, I still feel that Nakano Satsuki and the others have quite a few secrets..." Jolyne looked at the several parts of Nakano Satsuki's body that were arguing, thought for a moment and then restrained her desire to investigate. She had already accepted some of Nakano Maruo's things, so she decided to do something more important first.

"Of course I'll go there, but my next game is also coming up soon, so I might have to leave in the middle to do my own game."

Joren comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, I will try my best to take care of your affairs before I leave."

"As long as you improve your skills and follow my instructions, completing the hidden mission and obtaining an S-rank shouldn't be too much of a problem."

As for the specific procedures...

Jolyne will probably go in with Nakano Satsuki when she plays the game tomorrow. If it's a normal world or mission, she'll complete it. If the mission takes too long, more than a week, Jolyne will arrange things before leaving and find a temporary protector for her.

This is because the main world and the fairy tale world must each have a workshop passage, and Jolyne no longer has any new territory, so once he goes to the One Piece world, he will not be able to return to Nakano Satsuki's side.

"Let's decide on this for now."

Jolyne summoned Jorogumo and entrusted Nakano Nino to her full training.

Chapter 422 Pochi

Jorogumo took the Nakano sisters away, but left behind the compiled player data.

Jolyne opened it and saw that it contained the musician and sniper that he had asked Jorogumo to find yesterday.

Jorogumo's abilities are limited to Chiba, and unfortunately, there aren't many noteworthy girl bands in Chiba Prefecture. There are some players who fit the criteria of musician and sniper, but they're far from being good enough to pique Jolyne's interest.
