Zongman: Evolution Paradise

Although its mission was simply to protect the Slippery Fruit from accidents and wait for its master to kill the villain behind the scenes and collect the treasure chest to settle the matter, it was exposed unexpectedly, and Black Sun had no choice but to personally intervene to disrupt the ritual in order to stabilize the situation.

Faced with such a sudden and drastic change, Yuzuka Nonohara was completely dumbfounded. Her charming pink eyes fell on the suddenly appearing black sun, and she was completely captivated. She guessed that it was this crow that was stopping the ritual, and now it had even destroyed the ritual and suppressed the corrupted Camon in just a few moves!

what is this? !!

This is an incredible stroke of luck for her!

Unable to defeat the monsters on the island, and knowing that the corrupted Camon was the mastermind behind tens of thousands of monsters, the crow easily defeated the corrupted Camon. Through principles such as inequalities and linear equations, it can be concluded that the crow is equivalent to the giant leg!

While Nonohara Yuka was still daydreaming, Black Sun had already manipulated the shadows to throw her away. Nonohara Yuka, who had fallen to the ground, quickly hid in a safe area, only daring to stick her head out to continue observing the battle between Black Sun and Camon.

Although it has a rather cold personality, it is still a Kasugai Crow that has been trained in the Demon Slayer Corps. If it had the Goodness stat from the Great Tomb of Nazarick, then Black Sun would be one of the few Good and Lawful creatures under Jolyne's command.

The [Yin Shen] ability has been activated once again!

The corrupted Camon was nothing but a mediocre talent. The gap between the fourth and third realms of the Divine Demon was like the abyss. He tried his best to unleash the abyssal aura to force the Black Sun to avoid the corruption and return to the stone pillar to restore his complete form, but he couldn't even last three or four rounds in this brutal battle.

After being torn in half by the black sun, Camon's remaining bones were crushed inch by inch, leaving only his dark pupils staring at the intruder, still resisting.

Previously, when Yuan Tianlu Mo used the [Space Umbrella] to stop Jolyne from bringing reinforcements, he had already said that the true form of the Immaculate Mother Tree was in the [Nine-World Abyss Dragon]. In order to accurately project its power across worlds to the [Sea of ​​Demons], there must be a [medium] to locate the Sea of ​​Demons, and the Abyss Ritual is the medium that Camon prepared for the Immaculate Mother Tree.

After death, demons with the aura of the abyss will travel to the will of the abyss through the source of pollution. The location of the will of the abyss is, of course, in the abyss itself. Therefore, by simply sacrificing a large number of demons as offerings in the ritual, a stable channel connecting the Nine-Life Abyss Dragon and the Sea of ​​Demons can be quickly formed while providing ritual energy.

Moreover, demons are a renewable resource. Abyss rituals are widely used in the Nine Worlds Dragon. The principle of this medium can be used no matter what world it devours. The ritual knowledge of the corrupted Camon was learned from this.

The ritual has now been destroyed by the intruders.

Because of the spread of black flames, Camon worried that the flames would engulf the core area, so he drove all the nearby demons away from the ritual.

But Camon did not give up at this moment!

Because he is corrupted, his reason for living is to give everything to the great Immaculate Mother Tree!

Great Immaculate Mother Tree!

Camon cried out in his heart, his consciousness sinking into the abyss in an attempt to transform himself into a vessel for divine intervention!

Chapter 425 The Corruption and Death of Camon

As a corrupted being, Camon himself is the medium through which he willingly sinks his consciousness into the abyss. A strange sound of flowing water echoes in this space, and Camon's flesh, bones, and skin are ignited by ghostly flames as he sacrifices himself.

Black Sun observes Camon's unusual behavior.

It thought to itself, "I've already ruined the ritual, and now you're going to try to sacrifice yourself?"

However, this did not shock the crow, because the corrupted were soldiers of the Nine-Life Abyss Dragon. As a powerful abyss that even the main world dared not act rashly, although the corrupted and the demons were merely a pre-meal sterilization ritual before the Nine-Life Abyss Dragon officially devoured the Sea of ​​Demons, and although the Camon in front of him was only a low-ranking corrupted with pirate status, there are plots in fantasy novels where powerful beings from the spirit world ascend to the immortal realm and become lowly soldiers who can only mine and farm. With the Nine-Life Abyss Dragon, a top-tier world, the corrupted had naturally become a higher being that mortal races in the lower realm could not reach.

Ok……

As long as one is not completely dead, one can resurrect and grow stronger without limit. Theoretically, continuous growth can ignite the divine fire within the Nine-Life Abyss Dragon, giving one the potential to become a seventh-realm abyss evil god. This racial talent ignores the pollution of evil gods and the ability to create followers through the spread of pollution. One can even actually call upon the abyss evil god one worships to grant assistance.

The price to pay is only seven days of suffering.

For Camon, who no longer resists the will of the abyss, what difference is there between this and a holiday?

Of course, the Abyss God is an evil god, and such beings would not do everything personally. Even devouring the Sea of ​​Demons is nothing to them. How could they care about the prayers of mere believers? In any case, no matter what happens, the fate of the Sea of ​​Demons is already sealed!

Destined to be devoured by the Nine-Life Abyss Dragon!

To make matters worse, Camon, who had sacrificed himself, actually sensed the presence of the Immaculate Mother Tree! Her body was a divine tree that stretched through heaven and earth! Her trunk and leaves were the arms and hands of pure and beautiful maidens! The buds on her branches contained palaces like celestial cities! Suddenly, an angel dressed in a thin, misty dress leaned forward and fell!

"The great Immaculate Mother Tree is watching me!"

Camon's eyes lit up!

The Immaculate Mother Tree responded to him! It even actually sent angels to descend upon his unclean body! This seemed utterly impossible to Camon!

However, he did not want to investigate the reason. The glory of the Mother Tree was about to descend upon him, and the corrupted Camon was finally able to dedicate everything to the great Immaculate Mother Tree!

This is the greatest honor of entering the Kingdom of God!

He stared intently at the intruder, and suddenly a blasphemous thought of thanking the enemy arose in his mind.

Black Sun remained calm, because killing the corrupted would prevent it from obtaining the Paradise Chest. Therefore, Black Sun did not completely extinguish Camon's life force, thinking of waiting for its master to arrive and finish it off. However, it did not expect that the Immaculate Mother Tree was so possessive of its master, allowing the dying Camon to seize the opportunity and, in an extremely sinister way, sacrifice itself to bring forth the Immaculate Mother Tree.

Fortunately, this is a preventable situation.

In front of Camon,

Black Sun brought out the [Space Protection Umbrella].

It is the spirit of the Yin Emperor. The Yin Emperor is equipped with storage space, and the space protection umbrella is undoubtedly a useful weapon in this Demon Sea that has been corrupted by evil gods and is riddled with holes. As the strongest person on the ship, Black Sun is certainly qualified to possess it.

This is truly shocking – the network cable was cut!

The green plant that looked like the leaf umbrella from Plants vs. Zombies was taken out by the crow, and the ghostly flames on Camon's body immediately weakened. The ghostly flames were completely extinguished after two or three seconds, leaving Camon in a daze for a long time. He continued to sense the existence of the abyss, refusing to believe it, but could only see the ground casting shadows that completely engulfed him.

The problem of falling into evil in the three realms was thus easily resolved.

However, in reality, Hei Ri, who was holding back, did not even use the core ability of the Divine Realm Four, [Secret Domain]. He only casually used some [Yin God] techniques. The so-called [Secret Domain] is actually the space [Netherworld] within the Yin Emperor's equipment. It can be seen as the ultimate and invincible enhanced version of the exclusive talent [Domain Expansion] of the Divine Realm Three. The difference between the two is like the abode of gods and the Realm of Limits in the Type-Moon world. It is precisely because the Yin Emperor's equipment has [Netherworld] that it can be called the Divine Realm Four.

"Hello……!"

Seeing that the battle was over, Nonohara Yuka couldn't resist approaching Kurohi. She swallowed hard to stop her rapid breathing, and her charming pink eyes looked at the exceptionally handsome Kurohi with a heart full of love and attraction.

How to defeat the evil Camon in just a few moves?

These aren't just thighs, they're enormous legs!

If she could befriend this crow, the mission in the Sea of ​​Demons would be a piece of cake! With Nonohara Yuka's extraordinary charm, it wouldn't be impossible for her to tame this local powerhouse into a follower and bring her out!

She must seize this opportunity!

"Mr. Crow!"

"Thank you so much for saving me!"

"I will follow you and work hard to repay your kindness!"

Hmm... She didn't ask if she needed to repay the favor, but directly expressed her determination to do so. This was the art of language that Nonohara Yuka had pondered for a long time!

Then, as if remembering something, Yuka Nonohara said without batting an eye, "Actually, what I just said to the monster that I'm not pure was all a lie. He captured me for my purity. Mr. Crow, please don't despise my existence."

Black Sun: "..."

Regardless of whether the situation is true or false, why would a raven like it know whether you are pure or not? Is it because you think that Camon is in the evil camp, and you, who are fighting against Camon, are in the good camp, and that pure girls can get a favorability boost buff in the good camp?

Hei Ri ignored her, and Nonohara Yuka immediately decided to tell her tragic story, but she was interrupted by another voice before she could finish.

"First of all, Black Sun is a girl."

"Secondly, gratitude should be accompanied by tangible rewards."

"In the end, I must repay this kindness, so I'll trouble you to hand over your treasure."

The Hound of the Humans floated in the sky, its massive size blocking out the high-hanging sun. The shadow gradually covered Nonohara Yuzuka's raised face. The ghost ship, which looked like a menacing creature, made her legs go weak on the spot. From its words, she could tell that the crow had an owner. Nonohara Yuzuka immediately wondered if she had done something wrong.

Black Sun resolved the battle too quickly; in fact, it only took a few seconds from its accidental exposure to stopping the Immaculate Mother Tree from descending. Even if they rushed to the depths of the island immediately after receiving Black Sun's message, it would be too late.

Gazing at the fire that was not far away, Jolyne's eyelids twitched and he jumped off the ghost ship. He decided to leave immediately and not be burned by Joan of Arc's flames. The black sun landed on Jolyne's shoulder and said, "The corrupted Camon said that Joan of Arc's black flames can completely kill the Others."

"The Black Flame of the Turbid World has this effect?"

Jolyne understood its meaning.

Let Jeanne kill the corrupted Camon. The corrupted Camon is the source of pollution on the island of rare beasts. Once he is completely dead, all the demons on the island will also die. Without the demons as fuel, this fire can be controlled.

"Joan of Arc, come down and steal the kill."

"What do you mean by stealing kills?!"

Joan of Arc pouted, wondering how her scorching black flames could actually annihilate the Abyssal Demons. Did that mean she was even more important in this journey?

Because she wasn't a formal crew member, Joan of Arc had a lot of complaints about Jolyne's letter of appointment. Why could the captain's ten crew members include even a historian, but not someone like a lover or wife? She didn't realize that even if there were such a person, she wouldn't be able to take on the role.

Chapter 426 Yuzuka Nonohara thought to herself

"Black Sun, you need to reduce your involvement. I was originally planning to have the crew do the work."

Jolyne sighed at the little crow.

He could have easily accomplished this by going to the island, killing the corrupted Camon, and then casually bringing back the Smooth-Smooth Fruit and the Paradise Treasure Chest. He could have easily done it with just a few people. So why did he bring his crew all to the island to fight the Otherworldly Demons?

The answer is that it's for the job placement task!

Job requirements: Embark on a grand adventure with ten crew members of specific professions.

Since it's an adventure, how can the crew members increase the completion rate of their job assignments if they don't participate in the adventure? Fortunately, there are still many islands before arriving at Xuanwu Kingdom, and with some effort, they can still max out their daily score for job assignment completion.

“These natives don’t seem like good people. Luckily, they only asked me to hand over my treasure. But what if I angered them and got killed because I didn’t have any treasure?” Yuka Nonohara’s eyes were like those of a frightened deer as she looked around at the many more people who had disembarked from the ghost ship.

She thought about it carefully and realized that she had only said things to repay the crow's kindness.

Although he harbored ulterior motives, the local pirates probably couldn't see it. Due to the powerful aura emanating from Jolyne, Yuka Nonohara never considered that he was a player on her side. As for the intelligence level of ordinary people in the pirate world, Yuka Nonohara, who had been here for a few days, could only say that most of the natives were as "simple-minded" as the characters in a comedy manga.

The crow she had her eye on already had an owner, and her beautiful fantasy was shattered, leaving her secretly bitter. Fortunately, her player instincts allowed Nonohara Yuka's mind to work quickly, and she swiftly updated the original plan into Plan 2.0.

Since the crow has an owner, and this ghost ship seems quite powerful, I might as well continue with the topic of repaying a debt of gratitude and try to join this group. Even if they don't go to the Xuanwu Kingdom in the Grand Line, I can use the excuse of having already repaid my debt of gratitude to run away, at least avoiding being hunted down by the hunter players again.

Thinking of all this, Yuka Nonohara no longer hesitated and took two steps to Jolyne's side, saying, "I will definitely repay your life-saving grace! However... I lost my money when I was captured by the monster and brought to the island. Now I not only have no money to pay you back, but I am also very hungry. Can I come aboard the ship and work as a crew member to repay your kindness?"

As she spoke, her charming pink eyes revealed a pitiful and aggrieved expression, clearly indicating that she had activated some kind of charm-enhancing and favor-increasing skill. Combined with Nonohara Yuka's cute and innocent face, slightly curled black twin tails, and beautiful and proud figure, those with weak wills might actually be bewitched.

Jolyne simply asked, "Doesn't your paradise space have any items that can pay for your services?"

"???"

Yuka Nonohara was stunned. Just then, Jeanne d'Arc came over carrying the Paradise Chest. "The fact that the Paradise Chest dropped proves that this Abyssal Corruption is really dead."

These past few days, while sailing at night, Krieg's ghost fleet has frequently appeared. Because they haven't been truly killed, the Paradise Chests have never dropped. Just now, Black Sun released Camon, who was on the verge of death, and Jeanne d'Arc finished him off with Scorching Black Flame, which actually resulted in the Paradise Chest dropping.

Camon's treasure chest is pure black, and the chest is decorated with many strange animal reliefs.

As the source of pollution completely disappeared, the demons on the rare beast island began to die in droves, and those that relied on Camon for existence had no chance of being resurrected.

"...A Paradise Chest dropped?" Yuka Nonohara stared blankly at the Paradise Chest. As everyone knows, only players and followers can drop Paradise Chests. Her eyes slowly moved to Jolyne's face, and then she remembered that the outsider that the corrupted Camon ordered the demons to capture was a player on the tracking compass. In other words, the person in front of her was actually playing the same game as her.

Please, please don't be a hunter!!!

Then Yuka Nonohara saw Jolyne take out the tracking compass and give her a bright, sunny smile.

Nonohara Yuzuka: ∑(??д??lll)

[Level 2 Evil Deed: Nonohara Yuka is completely terrified by your fake Hunter faction; she now only hopes to save her life by handing over the Log Pose.]

"A name I don't recognize."

Jolyne thought to himself, all he remembered was a character named Nonohara Yuzu from the anime Yu-Yu-Shiki.

Meanwhile, Nonohara Yuka, whose Plan 2.0 had come to nothing, collapsed to her knees on the spot. Silently, she took out the Log Pose from the Paradise Space, raised it above her head, and with tears welling up in her eyes, said to Jolyne with a sorrowful expression, "Is there any maidservant missing on your ship, sir?"

"We don't need any!!!"

Jeanne immediately rejected the idea, glancing at Nonohara Yuka's tattered short-sleeved shirt and keenly noticing that the bulge was comparable in size to that of Kanroji Mitsuri.

"Is it necessary?"

Jolyne pulled Joan of Arc back, meaning exactly what she meant.

While Yuka Nonohara is beautiful, she doesn't quite reach the level of being otherworldly like a celestial being. Even the white dragon in the mind of Genten Lumo is more alluring than her. The ghost stories of Sadako, who could turn the God of Pure Love into an Indian man on the spot and never succeed in taking the throne, have already proven with their actions that mere appearance is completely useless to him.

"Anyway, you don't need any maids!"

Joan of Arc was rather shy and didn't want to explain herself in front of outsiders.

The reason is actually quite simple: Jeanne simply hates strangers intruding into her social sphere, as it makes her feel extremely uncomfortable. Her social sphere overlaps with that of her Master Jolyne, which manifests to the outside world as Jeanne disliking the presence of unfamiliar people in her and her Master's lives. Nonohara Yuka, who dared to boldly approach her Master as soon as she appeared, is like a cucumber that suddenly appeared behind a cat in her eyes.

"So I wasn't planning on agreeing."

Jolyne didn't care and just stood there with her hands shrugged.

This is somewhat disrespectful. Yuka Nonohara silently adjusted her bra strap. She wondered if her hard-earned bra strap was more charming than the white-haired loli. Although the white-haired loli was excessively beautiful, the fact that she had never been in a relationship was also a plus, right?

Hmm... As a pure vessel that could be captured by the corrupted Camon and used as a sacrifice in the Abyss ritual, Nonohara Yuka has collected many toys and she insists on completing her daily tasks, but she is indeed a pure girl who shares the same hobbies as Yukino-sama.

Yuka Nonohara thought to herself.
