Digimon: I really didn't want to be the Digimon Emperor!

"Currently, the coverage area is about 500 meters in radius," Chen Mingzhen said. "The computing power consumption is not small, but the effect is real. If it can continue to run for about a year, then the entire Honest City and its surroundings can be restored to the same livability as the outside digital space. This is the current efficiency. With the iteration of technology and the further development of environmental purification technology, this speed will definitely get faster and faster."

Cheng Yuan nodded. He was about to say something when he caught a glimpse of Red Spider slowly approaching the sacred purification crystal.

She walked slowly, her gaze fixed on the crystal equipment, drawn to it with curiosity and anticipation.

She walked to a spot about two meters in front of the crystal and stopped.

"It's so warm," she said.

As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Yuan saw a change in her body.

A faint red phantom emerged from behind her, like a demonic shadow breaking free from its cocoon.

The outline of the phantom was vaguely that of a giant spider, with six semi-transparent limbs suspended in the air, and dark red stripes on its abdomen that pulsated continuously.

At the same time, the surface of the sacred purification crystal lit up.

The data loops accelerated, and a pale blue halo spread from the surface of the equipment, sweeping across the red spider's body in concentric circles.

The red spider's body began to tremble.

“I…this is…” She looked down at her hand. Subtle changes were taking place in her hand; the outline of her fingertips was becoming blurred, a fine layer of downy texture was appearing on the surface of her skin, and her nails were slightly curved and pointed.

The research team behind Chen Mingzhen immediately noticed the anomaly. Several monitoring instruments simultaneously emitted urgent alarms, and the data waveforms on the screens fluctuated violently.

A researcher shouted, "Two distinct data streams have been detected switching! One is of divine attribute, and the other... is of dark attribute!"

Cheng Yuan's Arc Light Machine lit up automatically, and Angewomon emerged from the data light. Its eight wings spread out a holy halo on the beach. Then, Sanzangmon appeared as well, its claws clasped together, and golden scriptures slowly swirled around it. However, its ethereal body did not improve and revealed a sense of fragility.

“Angelwomon, what’s going on?” Cheng Yuan asked.

Angewomon's gaze locked onto Red Spider: "Its body is reacting negatively to the sacred particles. The thing inside it is resisting this purifying power."

Cheng Yuan looked at the increasingly clear spider phantom behind the Red Spider: "You mean, the dark power that corrupted them into Aqirli beasts has been enraged by the holy particles?"

“Yes.” Angewomon nodded. “Red Spider is currently in a weakened state after completing its molt, and the power of the spider data has been suppressed to its lowest point. As soon as the holy particles approach, the suppressed dark data begins to resist.”

After observing for a while, the Three-Hidden Beast spoke up: "I can feel that there are two forces constantly tug-of-war within its body. One is its original divine power, and the other is the acquired data from the Aquila Beast. In the month since it molted, the original power has temporarily gained the upper hand, which is why it can maintain its human form. But as the molting period ends, the original power will gradually fade, and the dark power will regain the upper hand."

Cheng Yuan looked at the red spider.

The spider phantom behind her grew clearer, its six compound eyes now open, roaring towards the sacred purification crystal. The red spider herself, however, looked conflicted, clutching her head as if resisting the phantom's encroachment.

“The phantom is conscious,” Cheng Yuan said. “The red spider is resisting.”

"They are not one entity."

Angewomon took two steps closer to Cheng Yuan and said, "The spider data within it is at its weakest right now. If... if we can seize this opportunity to clean up the infected spider data, it might be able to return to its original state."

Angewomon was particularly sensitive to this because she had handled the Dark Data Separation Surgery on Dark Gearmon when she was still a puppymon.

Cheng Yuan turned to look at her: "The original appearance?"

“Have you forgotten? You said that it shouldn’t have been Akelimon before, in ancient times,” Angewomon said. “I can sense that deep within its Digicore lies a string of even more ancient underlying source code, protected by a data ‘cocoon’.”

Cheng Yuan was silent for a few seconds, then walked over and stood not far from Red Spider.

“Red Spider,” he called out.

Red Spider managed to lift her head. Fine beads of sweat had appeared on her forehead, and her eyes were red-rimmed, but her gaze was still clear.

"After analysis, an opportunity is now in front of you," Cheng Yuan said. "If you succeed, it may help you get rid of the Argentamon form. But if you fail, it will damage the underlying data of the Digicore, resulting in the Digicore shattering."

The spider phantom behind Red Spider struggled violently and let out a silent roar at Cheng Yuan.

The Fire God Beast had been poised to strike, its fists transforming into two fire dragons that gripped the illusory figure's limbs from both sides, rendering it immobile.

Red Spider, panting, looked up into Cheng Yuan's eyes. Her lips trembled, whether from excitement or surprise, it was hard to tell: "Really? I can get rid of the spider body?"

“The risk is huge,” Cheng Yuan said. “This is just our speculation. If you’re willing to try, we’ll take the risk together. If you refuse and can’t control that force, we’ll imprison you until you regain your senses.”

Red Spider didn't hesitate.

“I accept,” she said. “Even if there’s only a one in ten thousand chance, I’ll accept it.”

Cheng Yuan looked at her and nodded.

"Angewomon, let's begin."

Angewomon nodded solemnly. She raised her hand, and golden holy bubbles spread from her palm, completely enveloping the red spider.

The surface of the bubble shimmered with iridescent light, like a thin but tough membrane separating the red spider from the outside world.

Immediately afterwards, the Divine Ring on Angewomon's ankle fell off, floated into the air, and rapidly expanded into a huge golden halo with a diameter of over five meters.

A halo hung above the red spider's head, slowly rotating, and a sacred aura poured down from the halo like a golden waterfall, enveloping the red spider's body.

The Fire God Princess Beast released its grip and jumped back two steps.

The sacred purification crystal began to draw in a large amount of computing power, transforming it into dense sacred particles, which flowed into the halo above the head like a luminous river.

The sacred halo spun faster and faster, and sacred particles fell on the red spider like a fine rain.

The spider phantom behind her was scalded by this power, emitting plumes of black smoke, before being evaporated and dissipated by the divine light.

The spider phantom emitted a silent shriek, and its abdomen suddenly split open, from which a large number of poisonous spider beasts surged out and crawled in all directions, attempting to attack the surrounding crowd.

It's the skill [Predatory Spider]!

The Fire God Beast clicked its tongue and its fists burst into flames.

【Fire Dragon Blazing Fist】.

The powerful wind beast swung its heavy square hammer, striking down a spider with each blow.

The two Ultimate-level Poison Spidermon, VulcanGreymon and GaleGreymon, easily wiped out the Champion-level Poison Spidermon.

Angewomon's aura continues to radiate.

The red spider struggled violently inside the pillar of light. The spider phantom behind her grew increasingly frenzied, its six compound eyes simultaneously glowing with a dark red light, and its segmented limbs frantically pounding against the inner walls of the sacred bubble.

"Red Spider, hang in there!" Cheng Yuan shouted.

Red Spider didn't reply. Her jaw was clenched tightly, and veins bulged on her forehead, but her hands didn't go down. Instead, she slowly and laboriously raised them up, as if grasping something. A surge of data energy hidden deep within the digital core was finally unleashed by her.

"They're here!" Cheng Yuan shouted.

Under the shadow of the black spider, something was tearing open on the back of the red spider.

Two pairs of large, translucent butterfly wings, with silvery-white edges, unfolded from behind her!

A pair of tiny insect antennae, delicate and soft, also extended from her forehead.

The spider phantom sensed something was wrong and erupted even more violently, its size more than doubling, and the dark red patterns became even clearer.

"Increase the output of purified data!" Cheng Yuan shouted.

The researcher beside him turned pale: "The Sacred Purification Crystal is already operating at full capacity! Any more power and the equipment will burn out!"

Chen Mingzhen stood to the side, gritted his teeth, glanced at Cheng Yuan, and then turned to the researcher, saying, "Do as he says!"

"But--"

"Execute the order!" Chen Mingzhen said firmly. "Do you know what time this is? This is a moment that will change the history of the digital world! Machines can be rebuilt if they burn out, but once the opportunity is missed, it's gone forever!"

The researcher was stunned by her words. He gritted his teeth, turned around and ran back to the control panel, pushing the power lever all the way down.

The sacred purification crystal emitted a piercing buzz, its outer shell began to heat up, and the data circuits on its surface turned from blue to a blinding red, like an overloaded light bulb.

Cheng Yuan said to Lin Zexian, "General Lin, in Honest City, please release all computing power and supply it fully to the purification equipment. Thank you."

Lin Zexian didn't ask any further questions, only replying with one word: "Okay."

At that moment, all of Honesty City's computing power reserves were poured into the overloaded sacred purification crystal.

Fiery, sacred particles erupted from the cracks, surging into the sacred halo overhead like a flood bursting its banks.

A golden, sacred torrent simultaneously engulfed the red spider and the spider phantom.

Then came a muffled thud.

The sacred purification crystal device exploded.

Debris and dust exploded from the center of the device, obscuring the view. A whirlwind swept through, shrouding Angewomon and Red Spider in a haze of smoke and divine light, making them difficult to see clearly.

“Angewomon…” Chen Mingzhen called out, his voice filled with worry.

Cheng Yuan gazed at the cloud of smoke and said softly, "It's alright, trust her."

The smoke and dust were swept away by the strong wind.

Angewomon stood in the center, her eight wings slightly folded, holding a figure in her arms.

The figure was dressed in a red palace robe with a wide skirt, two pairs of large, semi-transparent butterfly wings extending from its back, and a pair of thin antennae on its forehead.

She had two silver knitting needles tucked into her waistband, like knitting tools.

It slightly opened its eyes.

Angewomon put it down.

The red spider's pupils still held a trace of disorientation, as if it had just woken from a very long dream.

She looked down at her hands; they were human hands, with smooth skin and normal fingertips.

She touched her back again, and when she touched the two pairs of wings, she froze.

“This is…” she murmured.

Angewomon took a step back and nodded at her: "Congratulations, you succeeded."

Red Spider stood still, looking down at her own body, then slowly raised her head to look at the people around her who were clapping and cheering.

She lowered her head and gently touched her wings with her fingers. The wings were thin and translucent, shimmering with a silvery-white light, as if woven from starlight.

At this time, it looks no different from a human, but it has many more Digimon features. However, the original spider-type Digimon features have disappeared, replaced by more butterfly-type features.

Cheng Yuan, as usual, sent out a system scan.

[Wealth Points -100]

Vega

【Data Seed - God-like Type】

【Complete body】

[Skills: Heavenly Silk Entanglement, Flash Wings, Dream Weaving]

[Introduction: Vegamon was originally a humanoid Digimon inhabiting the eastern star region of the Digital World, woven from the Heavenly Silkworm Armor that commanded celestial soldiers and generals. She was skilled at weaving threads with starlight data, capable of creating illusions and repairing damaged data, and possessed a gentle nature. However, when her group was corrupted by DarkAkeribon's data, she was corrupted into a spider-type Digimon. Even after regaining her original form, Vegamon still faces the risk of mutating into a dark spider-type Digimon. Occasionally, ethereal spider phantoms appear within her, which are the materialized imprints of the dark data that once invaded her body, requiring a long period of time to fade away.]

At this moment, a system notification pops up: Due to the unlocking of a hidden Digimon from Touhou Project, information on the rare evolution chain of Vegamon is being given away for free.

Leafmon → Larvamon → Morphomon → Butterflymon → Vegamon → ? ? ? (Can be unlocked for 1000 million)

"Damn system, incorrigible, always trying to rip people off..."

Chapter 646 It's Time for Dongda to Show Its Strength

The Weaver Girl stood on the beach, looking down at herself for a long time.

“It really… has changed,” she said. “It has truly shed its spider form.”

From now on, they no longer need to transform back into the ugly form of Archimon.

Angewomon stood beside her, its eight wings folded, looking at her calmly: "Your original underlying data is still there, only the corrupted dark data has been stripped away. Now the divine power within you is being replenished. Although you are currently weak, recovery is only a matter of time."

The Weaver Girl turned to look at Cheng Yuan.

She looked at him for several seconds, then walked up to him and bowed in a very formal, classically Eastern-style curtsy.

Cheng Yuan was caught off guard by this action. He wanted to help her up, but seeing how serious she was, he didn't want to interrupt.

"Thank you," she said. "And Angewomon, Vulcaniamon, General Lin, Miss Chen, and that Galemon."

She went to each one one by one, trying not to appear too excited.

The Fire God Princess Beast, perched on a nearby rock, waved in response to her name being called. Chen Mingzhen peeked out from behind the rubble and smiled at her.

Lin Zexian stood at a distance and nodded slightly.

The crowd's affection for this suffering yet obedient Weaver Girl beast also increased.

Cheng Yuan waited until she finished speaking before saying, "Alright, stop thanking me. You've just recovered, so don't stand for too long. Find a place to sit down and rest."

The Weaver Girl shook her head: "I'm not tired. I've never felt so relaxed before."
