A Villain's Journey Begins in the Type-Moon World

“In my territory, such an unstable element will not be allowed to exist…” Wang Chong’s tone suddenly took on a cold and decisive tone. “There are only two paths for her: either she dies, or she is completely molded by me into someone I can trust.”

“This time, my methods towards her may have been a bit too harsh, even cruel…” Wang Chong’s gaze swept over Vishdale again, “but at least, from now on, there will be two people who can keep her firmly under control and guide her to become a little more mature and rational.”

"To others, her outward temperament may not seem to change drastically. Even in front of me, unless necessary, I will not deliberately suppress her original edges."

He then shifted his tone, adding a hint of unquestionable entrustment: "However, I hope you can guide her properly and teach her the rules regarding what she should and shouldn't do."

“You’ve done similar things for me more than once or twice. This time, I’ll entrust it to you again. There shouldn’t be any problem, right?” Wang Chong said, a confident smile playing on his lips.

“Yes, no problem.” Theresa nodded obediently without the slightest hesitation, accepting the responsibility in a voice as soft as a feather.

"Sleep well..." Wang Chong lowered his head and placed a comforting kiss on her soft lips. "Days like today will probably not come often in the future... You know, I still need to go to other worlds. When that time comes, this foundation will have to be entirely entrusted to you to manage."

"However, I will always be your last resort. If you encounter any problems that you cannot solve, you can call on me at any time."

After speaking, Wang Chong adjusted his posture and lay down to rest. Theresa carefully pulled up the blankets and gently covered the three of them to ensure they were warm.

Then, Theresa tilted her head slightly, her deep gaze lingering on Wang Chong's peaceful sleeping face for a long time, as if she wanted to imprint his image deep in her heart.

Finally, she couldn't resist the overwhelming weariness. Her cheek pressed against his arm, her breathing gradually became even and long, and she fell into a deep sleep.

...You're not free in Lin, are you in Lin...

"Ding—The task has been completed. Host, would you like to view it?"

As the first rays of morning light shone gently through the window onto Wang Chong's face, a crisp system notification sound reached the depths of his mind.

Wang Chong was awakened from his light sleep, and his consciousness instantly cleared.

"Hmm? The new mission is finally ready?" With a slight thought, a semi-transparent system notification appeared before his eyes. Without hesitation, he opened it with his mind, and the new mission details were clearly displayed:

"Task Objective 4: [The Battle for the Central Region]"

[Task Content]:

One-third of the vast territory of the Ursus Empire is now under your control, but the road to unification remains long and arduous.

The two weakest army groups have now been uprooted, but the claws and fangs of this northern behemoth remain sharp as ever! Advance! March westward, aiming for the core of the Central Region! Sever the two pillars of Ursus—the Fifth and Seventh Army Groups—completely!

With iron and fire, with boundless blood and bone-deep fear, let this aging empire truly understand who is the sole and undisputed ruler of this land!

"Tsk, System, could you please be a little shorter about the task details next time? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were just padding the word count. I flipped through this whole page and didn't see any task requirements."

Looking at the [mission details] that filled the entire screen, Wang Chong couldn't help but complain.

"Aha... Next time for sure, next time for sure. I'll never do such a long and tedious task again," the system said with a laugh.

Chapter 484 New Mission

Wang Chong shook his head, then continued looking at the requirements and rewards of the task:

【Task Requirements】:

Occupy the central region and completely annihilate the main forces of the Fifth and Seventh Armies of Ursus.

[Task Rewards]:

1. Reward for each ordinary town occupied: 1 reputation points;

2. Reward for each large mobile city occupied: 10 reputation points;

3. Reward for each Ursus soldier eliminated: 1 reputation point;

4. Reward for killing the Marshal of the Fifth Army: 1 reputation points;

5. Reward for killing the Marshal of the 7th Army: 10,000 reputation points;

[Task Restrictions]:

Kill Restrictions: Ursus ordinary sergeants must be killed by Reunion forces to be counted towards the reward. The host can only receive the corresponding kill reward by personally killing Ursus officers of general rank or above.

Strategy Restriction: The use of any means in the [Diplomacy] and [Strategy] command libraries that can directly lead to a change of control of the city (such as forced submission, unconditional surrender agreement, etc.) is prohibited.

However, the use of strategic instructions that have indirect influence, can weaken the enemy or create favorable conditions (e.g., spreading rumors, turning some mid-level officials against their cause, creating chaos, etc.) is permitted.

[Restricted Reward Mechanism]:

If no restrictions are triggered during the execution of the task, the task rewards will be immediately calculated as three times the amount.

If no restrictions are triggered during the entire task, an additional reward will be given on top of the original task reward (excluding the triple reward mechanism):

1 villain points;

2 chances to draw a character from any dimension;

Three villain templates.

After quickly reviewing the mission details, Wang Chong's face showed a hint of dejection, and he muttered to himself:

"Tsk, I thought there would be something new. Isn't this just the same as the previous mission objective 3? It just adds some requirements and rewards for occupying territory. There's nothing new about it."

The system's slightly obsequious voice rang in his mind at just the right moment:

"Hehe, my esteemed host, you see things clearly. There's nothing we can do about it. To put it bluntly, the subsequent process is just a repetitive, step-by-step process of filling in the Ursus territory little by little. The content is the same, so the mission is the same too."

"And host, you must have played those coloring games before, right? The principle is the same. When it comes to building power and expanding territory, the most difficult and challenging part is always the beginning when you break through the impasse."

"But once that breach is successfully made and the foundation is laid, the rest... is really just a matter of time and fate."

After listening to the system's explanation, Wang Chong pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"Hmm...that's certainly true. The Eastern Region is now firmly in our hands. We have vast lands, a large population, and abundant resources, which are enough to support us in training a stronger army and making full preparations for the final conquest of the heart of the Ursus Empire."

"Moreover, I can clearly sense that the concentration of 'ether' energy in the environment of this continent called Terra is increasing day by day, becoming more and more concentrated."

"The growth of this power is itself an invisible boost to us. Even without relying on the sheer number of our legions, Artoria and the others, now restored to their strength, are more than capable of clearing away obstacles and defending our position."

"We can confidently leave the Eastern Region and its subsequent expansion running in a virtual host."

With this in mind, Wang Chong lost interest in delving into the various restrictions and limitations of the mission.

The movement of unity has gained momentum, spreading like wildfire. In his view, the unification of Ursus is merely an inevitable outcome.

"In this way, I can devote more attention to managing the Type-Moon world. As for Terra... I can almost completely let go and let it develop on its own."

Wang Chong smiled slightly, thinking to himself.

“Host,” the system cautiously reminded him, “besides this [Central Domain Conflict] mission, there is actually an earlier triggered mission whose new phase was already started before.”

"Oh? There are other tasks?" Wang Chong's interest was slightly piqued.

The system quickly brought up another task interface in his field of vision, and he immediately focused his attention on it.

"[Hidden Side Quest: Echoes of a Previous Civilization]"

[Current Stage: Stage Two - Enemy of Civilization]

[Task Content]:

After you successfully defeated the phantom of Precys and the twelve demon kings he summoned, you have come to know a terrible truth: beyond this continent, in the deep sea of ​​stars or beyond the reaches of spacetime, lies a powerful and hostile being far beyond the current civilization of Terra.

If the weak Terra civilization is to have a chance to fight against it in the future, the prerequisite is to completely unify the power of the entire Terra world!

However, the sad reality is that the nations of Terra today are short-sighted, each acting independently, wasting their already limited resources in ignorance and internal strife...

This chaotic continent desperately needs a powerful and despair-inducing "villain," a "civilizational enemy" that can accelerate the course of history!

This chaotic continent desperately needs a powerful and despair-inducing "villain," a "civilizational enemy" that can accelerate the course of history!

Under the hammering of this terrifying force, all the clamor and division finally fell silent, leaving only a unified will!

……

Wang Chong looked at the system halfway through the document and questioned, "Didn't we just agree not to have any more of these lengthy tasks?"

"Uh... but this is a task that was written beforehand... Oh well, I won't write such long ones again, please let me go, host." The system let out a mournful cry.

Wang Chong withdrew his hand from tapping the system's head, shook his head, and continued reading:

【Task Requirements】:

Secretly build a new faction with "destruction" as its core ideology. Perfectly conceal your identity as the true ruler of this faction.

As an "enemy of civilization," it gradually erodes, undermines, and ultimately destroys the foundations of the major nations on the continent of Terra.

Ultimate goal: To force all races and nations on Terra to unite until all resistance is extinguished, leaving only your faction to dominate the world.

[Task Rewards]:

For each major nation successfully destroyed, you will receive: 1 Villain Points; 21 chances to draw all-dimensional characters; 31 legendary draw tickets; and 43 skill upgrade cards.

[Hidden Mission Objective]:

1. If the only surviving nation/faction is the Reunion Movement faction that you openly control, you will receive the following additional rewards: 1 [S-rank guaranteed villain template]; 1 [God-rank random skill card].

2. If you ultimately gain effective control over the representative heroes of all the nations destroyed during the mission in any way, you will receive:

The base loyalty of all Terran natives to you will be permanently locked at 80% or higher.

"Ha, interesting, very interesting... Destroying countries one by one?"

Wang Chong looked at the task requirements with some pleasure and said, "This is much more lenient than the main quest. After all, this hidden quest has no restrictions."

"That's true, but Master, you need to focus your attention on Type-Moon. This task will probably have to wait until you've finished dealing with Type-Moon before you can take care of things here, right?"

The system couldn't help but ask.

"Hehe, you don't understand... I have some powerful retainers that I haven't even activated yet." (You, you, Lin Youyongkong, you, Lin Zaizai, are you...)

Wang Chong smiled and said:

"Originally, we thought their power was too brutal and unpredictable, so we didn't plan to include them in the integration. Now that this mission has come along, it just so happens that it can be handed over to their target audience..."

"Hmm? The host mentioned attendants... could it be?!" The system immediately realized something and said.

"It's time to launch a major event of decay against this world. Heh, it's just a pity that my black mist has already been exposed quite a bit in this world, so I can only let them rely on their own abilities to expose as little of my decaying power as possible."

Wang Chong said with a smile, "However, with their strength to easily kill all the demon kings of this world throughout history, conquering a kingdom is more than enough for them."

After listening, the system seemed to understand and said:

"I see. Once the Great Ruin Event is initiated, it will not end unless all of them are eliminated, which is indeed very fitting for this mission."

Wang Chong nodded, then began to review the mission rewards, saying:

"Tsk tsk, speaking of which, I've seen this all-dimensional character lottery several times, and now I have one chance to participate. You haven't explained to me how this thing is different from other lottery chances yet?"

"Hehe, you've come to the right person, host."

The system chuckled slyly, then brought up the relevant gacha pool interface and continued:

"This is a good thing, host. Just one draw will give you a powerful assistant with full favor and loyalty."

Chapter 485 I still prefer your rebellious side

"A loyal and powerful assistant? Isn't that the same as summoning a heroic spirit?" Wang Chong raised an eyebrow and replied with a hint of teasing.

"First of all, host, don't forget that summoning a Heroic Spirit doesn't guarantee full loyalty," the system immediately corrected, its tone carrying a hint of professional rigor. "Secondly, host, you should have seen this, right? This is a precious 'all-dimensional' character summon!"

The system emphasized the words "all-dimensional," seemingly to highlight its uniqueness, and then went on to explain in detail:

"This means that the characters it can draw are not limited to the worlds that the host has explored, such as Type-Moon or Terra, but cover various dimensions and worlds! It can be said that characters from any world could be drawn by you, the host!"

"Oh?" Wang Chong raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of surprise in his expression, and continued listening.

The system seemed pleased with Wang Chong's surprise and continued to throw out key points:

"Furthermore, there is a crucial feature: because the character is extracted from another dimension, the character, like the host, has the effect of synchronizing with the laws."

"In other words, the summoned character is completely unrestricted by the rules of other worlds and can perfectly unleash her original peak strength." The system further explained, "In fact, she can travel freely to any world, just like you, the host, without being bound by any spacetime conditions."

"I understand." Wang Chong nodded, sorting through the information. "It's like if I create a completely new world, I can take her with me, saving me the trouble of adapting and dealing with limitations, right?"

"Exactly!" the system's voice rang with excitement. "So, host, are you interested in trying your luck and drawing something?"

"The items are quite good... but..."

"Friendly reminder, host..."

Before Wang Chong could say anything, the system seemed to immediately realize what he was about to say and interrupted him to continue:

"Because the scope of the all-dimensional character gacha is so vast, the world you are in or your current luck has almost no impact on the gacha results. So please stop talking about going back to the Type-Moon world to gacha."

"Tsk, you even predicted this? Looks like you really want me to draw a card right away." Wang Chong couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at the system's eagerly promoting it.

"Of course!" the system said matter-of-factly, with a hint of resentment in its voice. "After all, you, host, always say you want to 'go back to the Type-Moon world to draw again'... Look at how many good things you've hoarded in your warehouse! It's such a waste to leave them unused!"

The system even brought up a certain item and said, "Look, the 'villain template' that can most directly boost your combat power is still lying in the corner collecting dust! You're too patient."
