Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.

Chapter 488: Reception Badge (5K chapter, please subscribe and vote)

"No, only you can do this."

Lin Yi realized that Zhu Lan's expression did not mean he was joking at all, so he made a gesture, indicating that Zhu Lan should continue.

Zhu Lan looked up at the sky, then used his magic power to isolate this space to prevent it from being detected by the world consciousness.

"I hope you can take me out of this world."

Hearing Zhu Lan’s request, Lin Yi felt numb all over.

He finally understood why Zhu Lan used his magic power to seal off this space.

If such a request were to be noticed by the world consciousness, Zhu Lan would probably be immediately suppressed by countless mysterious forces and fall into hell forever.

In the world of Jackie Chan Adventures, Curse Blue represents not only the Kan of the Eight Diagrams, but also the symbol of the moon in this world.

If he really leaves, the laws of this world will be missing a link, this is no joke.

This is completely different from the situation when Lin Yi killed the Holy Lord.

Although the Holy Lord's body was destroyed, the authority and power he controlled still remain in this world, and the basic laws of the world have not been shaken.

However, Zhu Lan's request is to completely leave this world.

Once he leaves, the basic laws of the world of Jackie Chan Adventures will be vacant, which is something the world consciousness cannot tolerate.

"Wait a minute, I need to ask my boss."

After saying that, Lin Yi pointed above his head, indicating that the decision was not in his hands.

He then conveyed Zhulan's wishes to the Samsara Paradise and waited for a response.

Faced with such a situation, Lin Yi certainly could not make a decision on his own and had to leave it to the Samsara Paradise to decide.

As long as Samsara Paradise agrees, he has his own way to help Zhu Lan leave this place.

Introduction: Badges represent not only identity, but also rights.

Price: 800 paradise coins.

After a series of pleasant prompt tones, a white badge suddenly appeared in Lin Yi's hand. It seems that talents are also very scarce in the Samsara Paradise.

You must know that as the oldest demon in Jackie Chan's Adventures, the knowledge and wisdom in Zhulan's mind are unfathomable.

Even though Zhu Lan is only at the top level of level three now, if he were to leave the confines of the Jackie Chan Adventures world, he would immediately break through to level five.

Unlike most of the root demons who are content with the status quo, if Zhulan had not been shackled by the world consciousness, Zhulan's power would have long surpassed the limits of this world.

After a long period of accumulation, Zhulan has become proficient in using various skills.

It is no wonder that the Samsara Paradise is so eager for Lin Yi to bring Curse Blue into the paradise.

"Okay, I've agreed. But I still have some tasks to complete and may need your assistance. If it's convenient, can I wait until I finish these tasks before sending you there?"

Zhu Lan nodded slightly. After the previous soul-stealing, Zhu Lan had already learned that every contractor who came to this world would have a main mission.

"What is your main mission? Tell me and I will help you complete it."

As he spoke, Zhu Lan's tongue fluttered gently in the air like a snake's tongue.

"You actually let this go. My mission is to find Tara's mask, but now because the Holy Lord used the Book of Time to change the timeline, Tara's mask has not appeared. If possible, I need to go to Australia to change history back."

Lin Yi explained his mission frankly. After hearing the details, Zhu Lan nodded thoughtfully.

"I see. Tara was not sealed due to Bo Gon's interference. Therefore, your goal is to return the timeline to normal, correct?"

Having said that, Zhu Lan's expression changed slightly.

If Lin Yi really repaired the timeline in the book of history, it would mean that Zhu Lan would be imprisoned in hell again.

This is obviously not good news for Zhu Lan.

Once Lin Yi goes back on his word, Zhu Lan will really be unable to do anything to Lin Yi.

By then, Lin Yi was in the real world, while Zhu Lan was trapped in Pangu Hell and unable to leave.

"I know what you're worried about. Let's sign a contract. I promise that after completing the mission, I will find a way to free you."

Lin Yi could guess Zhu Lan’s concerns, so he took the initiative to dispel Zhu Lan’s worries.

You should know that Samsara Paradise strongly encourages hunters to abduct potential plot characters to Samsara Paradise, so Lin Yi will do his best to fulfill his promise and rescue Zhu Lan from the predicament.

"Sign a contract? Then let me draft it." Zhu Lan suggested.

Then, a piece of ancient parchment appeared in Zhu Lan's hand.

The next second, the eyes of the world consciousness appeared again above Lin Yi and Zhu Lan, as if monitoring their every move.

After experiencing so many derivative worlds, Lin Yi realized that the world consciousness in Jackie Chan Adventures was unusually active and particularly unique compared to other world consciousnesses.

In most derivative worlds, the world consciousness often only has instinctive reactions or is in a dormant state, and rarely appears actively. Only the world consciousness in the Jackie Chan Adventures world appears from time to time to make its presence felt.

After Zhu Lan carefully drafted the contents of the contract, the contract floated lightly in front of Lin Yi.

Lin Yi carefully scanned every clause of the contract. After making sure that there were no interlayers, multiple layers or hidden contracts, he signed his name in the lower right corner of the contract.

Zhu Lan naturally noticed Lin Yi's careful inspection of the contract and couldn't help but complain: "Are the people in your place so dangerous when signing contracts? They have to check it over and over again so many times."

"It's always better to be careful. The methods I'm using now are just basic operations. I heard that more advanced methods can break down a contract into more than a dozen. It looks like you only signed one contract, but in fact you may have signed more than a dozen at once. If you don't check carefully, it's really easy to be cheated."

"Oh, there is actually such a method." After hearing this, Zhu Lan's expression became obviously happy.

Obviously, Lin Yi's words opened up a whole new world for Zhu Lan.

After the contract was established, an invisible force appeared on Lin Yi and Zhu Lan.

This contract, signed under the watchful eyes of the world consciousness, carries extremely severe penalties for breach of contract.

Even Curse Blue, the immortal root demon in Jackie Chan's Adventures, will face severe punishment if he violates the contract.

In mild cases, the strength in the body may be drained, causing the person to become extremely weak.

In serious cases, their bodies will be destroyed and their souls will be thrown into an endless hell, suffering eternal torture.

"By the way, I have captured a few contractors here. See if there is anyone you know among them."

After signing the contract, Zhu Lan gently waved towards the sky.

Then several creatures that looked like giant bats appeared from the sky.

These creatures are much larger than ordinary bats, with wingspans of several meters and majestic bodies.

Their bodies are dark black, and under the moonlight, these creatures' bodies emit a faint silver-white halo, as if they were gently coated with a layer of charming silver gauze by the moonlight.

These are the demon followers under Zhulan's command - the Byaki.

Although the head of the Byaki is small, its eyes are large and bright, flashing a faint blue light.

Their long, pointed mouths reveal rows of sharp teeth, revealing their ferocious nature.

When these creatures fly, their wings flap gently, making a rustling sound.

The limbs of the Byaki are long and powerful, and the sharp claws on their claws can easily tear through hard materials, making them their hunting weapons.

During the long years when Zhulan was sealed in hell, these loyal Byaki also slept on the back of the moon, silently waiting for the return of their master.

In the claws of these Byaki, each one tightly grasped a contractor who had fallen into a state of dementia.

Their faces were expressionless and their eyes were empty, and they had obviously been subjected to Zhu Lan's soul-stealing interrogation. This interrogation method was extremely cruel, and it could directly spy on the memory and soul of the interrogated person to obtain the required information.

Zhulan had captured dozens of contractors before, but now only these few are left.

The other contractors have been forcibly executed by the Samsara Paradise for leaking important information.

[Hint: The hunter has approached Abnormal Violator No. 77524, and the location has been marked on the map. ]

After Zhu Lan threw these contractors down, Lin Yi found the reminder sound of the Samsara Paradise ringing in his ears.

"Violators?"

Following the guidance of the Samsara Paradise, Lin Yi came to a man with a crooked mouth, slanted eyes, and drool at the corners of his mouth.

The man's appearance was ordinary, like a passerby on the street, easily forgotten after a glance.

However, Lin Yi soon noticed that this man's abilities seemed extraordinary.

Whenever he didn't look at the man's face, the image of this man would gradually become blurred in Lin Yi's mind.

Surprisingly, in just a dozen seconds, Lin Yi was unable to recall the man’s specific appearance.

"Where did you catch this guy?" Lin Yi asked curiously, pointing at the man.

Zhu Lan replied: "Him? He was not actually captured by Baiyaki. It was the world consciousness that guided me to capture him."

"World consciousness?"

Lin Yi didn't expect that this violator could actually be involved in the world consciousness. Could it be that this man is very dangerous to this world?

"Yes, according to the instructions of the world consciousness, this man seems to be holding something extremely dangerous in his hand. Because of this, the world consciousness instructed me to take action myself to ensure safety."

Then, Zhu Lan slowly took out a book and a mysterious gem from his pocket.

The cover of the book looked simple and old, with the yellowed paper bearing the marks of time.

The surface of the gemstone constantly flickered with a dim light, and it was like a rotating vortex. Just looking at it would make people feel an intense headache, as if their souls were about to be swallowed by it.

According to Lin Yi's investigation, this gem is actually a medium for summoning ancient gods.

As long as one follows the instructions detailed in the book, carefully arranges the corresponding magic circle, and places the gem that shines with a dim light in the center of the magic circle, the violator will be able to send the exact coordinates of this world to the ancient god corresponding to the gem.

At that time, the ancient gods who sense the call will cross the barriers of time and space and descend into this world.

"What kind of creature is the Ancient God? A deity?"

After hearing Lin Yi's explanation, Zhu Lan couldn't help but ask a question.

In the world of Jackie Chan Adventures, there are also beings called ancient gods, but these ancient gods actually refer to those ancient gods, which are completely different from the ancient gods in the void that Lin Yi knows.

When Lin Yi explained to Zhu Lan in detail the characteristics and abilities of the ancient god in the void, Zhu Lan was deeply shocked.

Especially when he heard the description of the ancient god feeding on the world, Zhu Lan opened his palms in surprise.

The concept of feeding on the world was undoubtedly an unprecedented shock to him.

Lin Yi further elaborated on the ancient gods’ corrosive abilities and powerful combat capabilities, pointing out that ordinary creatures could mutate simply by being close to the ancient gods.

After hearing this, Zhulan finally understood why the world consciousness was so nervous and assigned him to deal with the violator who was in possession of dangerous items.

The books and gems in the hands of this violator are undoubtedly a potential huge threat.

Once he succeeds in summoning the ancient god, all creatures in the entire Jackie Chan Adventures world will face catastrophic consequences.

Lin Yi pulled out the black and white rose and sent the abnormal violator No. 77524, who had become a fool, to hell.

The next second, the reminder sound of the Samsara Paradise rang out.

[Hint: The hunting mission has been completed. Completion rate is 97%.]

[You received 3 Gold Medals of Honor, and your authority increased by 3.]

[Tip: Because the hunting mission completion rate exceeds 90%, you will receive additional rewards and the number of fortune wheel draws (once). ]

This time, abnormal violator No. 77524 was closely watched by Curse Blue and the world consciousness as soon as he appeared, so he had no chance to take any action at all, which also allowed Lin Yi to get a big advantage.

"Then I will accompany you to the Book of History. I hope you will not break your promise."

Zhu Lan did not react when he saw Lin Yi killing the violator.

To a being like Zhulan, humans are just like insignificant insects, and their life and death are unlikely to cause any fluctuations in his heart.

"Don't worry, with you here, nothing should go wrong for us."

The next morning, the sun shone through the treetops onto the campsite, and the golden light covered everything with a warm coat.

Xiaoyu woke up from her sleep, her sleepy eyes suddenly widened, she saw Lin Yi and Zhu Lan grilling fish intently by the campfire.

This scene was too shocking for Xiaoyu, and she couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

"What's wrong, Xiaoyu?" Jackie Chan's voice came from the side. He rubbed his eyes and slowly sat up from the comfortable camp bed.

That camp bed was provided by Lin Yi, and its comfort level far exceeded the stone bed that Jackie Chan usually slept on in the palace.

There was only a thin blanket on the stone bed. Not only was it too cold to fall asleep, but the hard stone surface also made people toss and turn.

In comparison, this camp bed is like heaven.

"Uncle Long! The devil is coming." Xiaoyu rushed to Lin Yi with a terrified look on her face, as if she wanted to pull him away quickly, but Lin Yi had no intention of running away. Instead, he signaled Xiaoyu not to be too nervous.

"Don't worry, Zhulan is one of us now, don't worry too much."

These fish were not caught by Lin Yi in the sea. Instead, Zhu Lan used his mana to control gravity and grabbed them directly from the sea water.

Zhu Lan’s control over gravity was much more proficient than Lin Yi had imagined.

At this moment, Xiaoyu's brain was in a state of shutdown. Lin Yi's words had a huge impact on her worldview.

In her original understanding, demons are evil beings and monsters that must be sealed, otherwise they will cause devastating damage to the world.

However, the current situation has completely overturned her perception.

"Okay, Xiaoyu, stop being dazed and sit down to eat." Lin Yi's voice broke Xiaoyu's thoughts and handed her a skewer of fragrant grilled fish.

Hearing Lin Yi's call, Dad and Jackie Chan also walked to the campfire and began to enjoy the delicious grilled fish.

Seeing that Zhu Lan didn't move his mouth, Lin Yi handed it a skewer of grilled fish and motioned for it to enjoy it together.

"Demons eat different things than humans do."

Zhu Lan shook his head and refused the grilled fish handed to him by Lin Yi, then summoned Bias.

Several Bayas quickly appeared in front of Zhu Lan carrying a huge iron plate.

The iron plate was densely packed with slug-like creatures.

Zhu Lan stretched out his finger, controlled a slug to float in front of him, then rolled his tongue and easily put it into his mouth.

"Hiss, is this thing delicious?"

When he saw the juice bursting out of Zhu Lan's mouth, he suddenly felt that the grilled fish in his mouth was not so delicious anymore.

Xiaoyu standing by had the same feeling. She widened her eyes and watched Zhulan enjoying the food with a little horror.

Jackie Chan and his father were still eating the grilled fish calmly.

They grew up in the palace and had long been accustomed to such strange scenes, or even immune to them.

"It has plenty of magic power and tastes delicious," Zhu Lan licked the juice bursting out from the side of his mouth and said with satisfaction, "I'm really curious, why do you humans like foods that don't have any magic power at all?"

The insect he mentioned, although it looks a little scary, is actually rich in magical power.

For a big eater like the Mountain Demon Bogang, a bucket of these bugs can go a long way to alleviating his hunger, even if his appetite is insatiable.

In fact, the necessary condition for the survival of demons is not ordinary food, but magic power.

Therefore, things that can replenish magic power naturally become the favorites of the eight demons.

In ancient times, the eight demons preferred to eat members of some extraordinary races, such as goblins.

But as time went on, the number of these races gradually decreased, and the eight demons had to settle for the next best thing and choose to eat these insects that were full of magical power and delicious.

"We humans are different from you demons. Magic power is not a necessity for us." Lin Yi said with a smile, "Comparatively speaking, the taste of food is more important to me."

Xiaoyu nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and it was obvious that she agreed very much with Lin Yi's point of view.

Zhu Lan looked at Lin Yi and Xiao Yu's reactions and shook his head, "Well, since you don't want to eat this, I won't share it with you."

After saying that, he continued to enjoy his "breakfast", putting all the bugs on the plate into his mouth one by one.

After breakfast and washing up, everyone prepared to continue their journey.

This time, with Zhu Lan's joining, Lin Yi finally didn't have to sit on that butt-hurting wooden carriage anymore.
