Paimon Resurrected

Ghost, who was currently picking up the Jorōgumo's spider legs, heard this and...

The spider legs in his hand clattered onto the ground.

???

Why does this tone sound so familiar?

How could it not sound familiar?

Zero's entire spiel was inspired by Sun Xu.

When Sun Xu did commentary, he always had a routine.

He even claimed to be Lin Yuan's number one sycophant.

Zero, after meticulous analysis,

calculated that Lin Yuan enjoyed this kind of tone.

Thus, the previous words were spoken.

When Ghost walked over, holding the eight spider legs,

he saw Lin Yuan nodding in satisfaction.

Ghost's soul flame flickered rapidly.

Damn it!

No way.

I still need to take out a loan to buy Undead Essence.

Just you wait.

Once I comprehend the Super Invincible Explosively Handsome Skill,

the number one sycophant under Master will still be me,

General Ghost the Practical!

Those who only know how to run their mouths

are destined to be left far behind by me.

Lin Yuan stood up and checked the attributes of the spider legs.

[Shadow Spike - Material]

[Quality: Epic]

[Usage: Can be used for forging Equipment]

The spider legs were three meters long.

They had shrunk considerably compared to when the Jorōgumo was alive.

There were eight in total, all now in Ghost's hands.

Lin Yuan glanced at them and handed them all to Tie Chui.

"Tie Chui, keep these. Once the materials are complete, see if you can forge some decent Equipment."

Tie Chui held the Shadow Spikes and pondered.

"This material is somewhat unique. I can use the Thousand Forging Method to stack them together and create an extendable rapier."

When Lin Yuan heard this, his eyes lit up.

Because he thought of a weapon belonging to an anime character from his previous life:

Kill him, Shinso!

"Can it be forged into a legendary-grade weapon?" Lin Yuan asked.

If it were just an epic-grade weapon,

it could only be used to deal with some low-level small fry.

Such characters weren't worth Lin Yuan personally making a move.

If the target was slightly stronger,

and a sneak attack couldn't severely injure or kill them,

then it was better not to attack at all.

It would be too embarrassing.

Tie Chui thought for a moment.

"With only the Shadow Spikes, it's impossible to forge a legendary weapon."

"If we had legendary-grade spatial materials, plus a large amount of Mithril, I am confident I could forge a powerful weapon that kills without a trace."

Lin Yuan nodded, indicating he understood.

It was just that spatial-type materials were too difficult to acquire,

especially legendary-grade ones.

Their difficulty of acquisition was much higher than that of legendary Equipment.

Following the massacre of the Jorōgumo and the Snow Maiden,

the battle in Tianfeng City was officially brought to an end.

"Disengage the linkage."

"Form minimum combat units and coordinate with the Law Enforcement Team to manage the wounded."

After the order was issued,

the Demon Suppression Army quickly mobilized.

Using five-person squads as units,

they moved through the streets and alleys of Tianfeng City,

treating the wounded,

assisting the Law Enforcement Team in relocating and settling ordinary citizens,

allowing Tianfeng City to return to its previous state in the shortest possible time.

After organizing the Demon Suppression Army,

Li Yingchuan and Mu Tianxing walked up to Lin Yuan.

"This is the compensation they gave previously, totaling 1.5 billion. It's all here."

Li Yingchuan transferred the compensation to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan didn't stand on ceremony and accepted it immediately.

"Thank you, General Li."

"Don't mention it. I should be thanking you."

Li Yingchuan glanced at Zero, who had turned into a miniature robot.

"If not for your two Summoned Beasts desperately protecting Tianfeng City, it might not exist right now."

"I will report your merit this time truthfully. Including the power armor, a First-Class Military Merit Medal shouldn't be a problem."

"That's incredible, Brother Lin," Lin Yandong exclaimed in shock.

"The First-Class Military Merit Medal—many famous old generals who have served for years might not even receive one."

"The fact that you can receive it at such a young age is simply..."

Lin Yandong gave a thumbs up.

Mu Tianxing felt a bit sour hearing this.

He had experienced near-death situations multiple times,

saving several cities, just to receive a First-Level Military Merit Medal.

Yet Lin Yuan easily obtained the First-Level Military Merit Medal simply by providing the blueprints for the power armor.

It truly couldn't be compared.

However, Mu Tianxing also knew that awarding the First-Level Military Merit Medal was absolutely justified.

He had personally witnessed the power of the armor.

To put it bluntly,

even Mu Tianxing himself,

if he were pulled into the Linkage Field without preparation,

he wouldn't be sure he could escape unscathed.

One must remember that was only 100,000 Demon Suppression Army soldiers.

What if it were 200,000, or even 500,000?

Mu Tianxing would probably be instantly killed.

The blueprints for the Power General could be said to have changed the entire structure of Blue Star,

or rather, indirectly changed the Professionals' technology tree.

It allowed Professionals, who were originally inclined toward individual combat,

to develop the rudimentary form of large-scale legion combat.

Although there had been large-scale battles before,

frankly speaking, they were just small, localized units fighting independently,

with limited coordination between them.

Now, it was different.

Tens of thousands of people linked together,

following orders strictly, attacking exactly where commanded.

Even someone as strong as Paimon,

unaware of the power armor's capabilities,

was beaten until he couldn't take care of himself.

Lin Yuan looked around.

Apart from his own Villa,

the other areas had turned into ruins.

Rebuilding would likely take a lot of effort.

However, Lin Yuan didn't need to worry about this.

Dedicated builders and construction teams would handle the restoration.

"Brother Lin." Lin Yandong rubbed his hands together.

"About that... the dungeon placement crystal."

The Blazing Demon Fortress Dungeon had extremely high difficulty,

but correspondingly, the rewards were definitely high.

Lin Yuan achieved a Perfect Clearance,

so the Placement Crystal would certainly have two positive affixes.

If he was lucky enough to draw divine blessing or Assistance,

he would instantly soar!

"Oh, you mean the dungeon placement crystal," Lin Yuan realized.

"Elder Brother Lin, I almost forgot if you hadn't asked."

"I received five dungeon placement crystals this time."

"Five?!" Everyone was simultaneously startled.

"There are actually five."

"Could it be that the four previous checkpoints in the Blazing Demon Fortress also became separate Dungeons?!"

Thinking about it, it was highly possible.

The difficulty of those four checkpoints fully met all the requirements for a Dungeon.

Just thinking about Tianfeng City gaining five more Dungeons,

Lin Yandong's mouth was practically splitting with joy.

"Hahaha, Brother Lin, you truly are Tianfeng City's lucky star."

"With you in Tianfeng City, it will soar to great heights sooner or later."

Mu Tianxing tossed his dazzling golden hair.

He said pompously,

"Not bad. He has the same flair I did back then."

"Oh, please. When you were his age, you were miserably begging others to team up with you."

Li Weixian squeaked out,

"'Full Defense Knight, doesn't need Equipment, seeking Dungeon team.'"

"You're full of it!" Mu Tianxing snapped. "I just looked down on that low-level Equipment."

"Do you think I'm like you, a 'Need All' party member?"

Lin Yuan stood where he was,

watching Mu Tianxing and Li Weixian reveal each other's embarrassing pasts.

A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory,

a faint gray light quietly flashed over Paimon's corpse.

The next moment,

Paimon reappeared in his original spot, completely unharmed.

"You celebrated too soon!"
