Zongman: Evolution Paradise

“The enemy has seven Servants, while we have only shown four. In Shirou Emiya’s eyes, we must be the weaker one.”

Yukino Yukinoshita reminded her.

Jolyne continued, "Shirou Emiya has been affected by the Black Grail. Although he still speaks to us calmly, the war has already begun, and he will definitely find a way to kill us."

Medea: "And the simplest and most suitable way to kill a Master and Servant combination is to directly kill the Master who provides the magical energy!"

"Their assassins will strike when our attention is completely drawn!"

"And that's where the opportunity lies for the enemy's assassins to be eliminated first!"

Jolyne made the decision, and the others understood it. The question now was how to seize this brief opportunity, or more precisely, how to survive the assassins' first wave of attacks and capture him in the process!

Chapter 243 I caught you

The first step: survive the assassination attempt!

The second step is to capture the assassin!

The third step: direct confrontation!

It only takes three steps, which sounds as simple as putting an elephant in a refrigerator.

Medea, Jolyne, and Yukino Yukinoshita were all thinking, because they knew that the assassins would definitely prioritize killing the three of them.

Time was of the essence, and Yukino Yukinoshita sighed inwardly before saying bluntly, "Lord Jolyne, judging from your actions in inviting him to play soccer, you must have already angered him, right?"

"Plus, the three heroic spirits under your control, whether rationally or emotionally, are undoubtedly prime targets for assassins..."

“Yes.” Jolyne was well aware that she was a prime target for assassination.

Or rather, it was precisely because Jolyne had someone like herself who could "instantly decide the outcome of the battle with a single kill" that she was certain the assassin would make his move!

So, how does one survive an assassination attempt?

Yinluo Lingfu?

Heroic Spirits have a wide variety of abilities, but are they really enough?

"I'll do it, Jolyne."

Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly spoke, and then she heard Jolyne's reply.

"No, what strength do you have?"

Yukinoshita Yukino: "..."

Yukino Yukinoshita once again wanted to find a tool to make Jolyne forget the experiences of the two in Demon Slayer. She sighed and continued, "I am protected by the scabbard, so the assassin's attack cannot kill me instantly. And if I don't die, Lily's Noble Phantasm can heal my injuries at any time."

"The problem now is that the opponent's target is most likely me, and I can't use Saber's scabbard."

Yes, Saber's Avalon can only be used if she gains Avalon's approval. Yukino Yukinoshita successfully gained approval, and Jolyne naturally tried as well, but Avalon completely ignored her.

"Then let me pretend to be you!"

Yukino Yukinoshita revealed her plan.

Then, she looked at her last Command Seal. Reaching an A rating in the last world had brought about a significant transformation in her strength. Moreover, Yukino Yukinoshita at least had an older sister who was a player.

……

Some people will surely ask, wouldn't a player organization with a powerful background be able to use resources to cultivate players into invincible beings, and then use low-level, high-strength players to grab higher rewards and higher ratings in the Paradise game, and then keep snowballing like a snowball!

In fact, the background does play a significant role, but this role also has its limitations.

That is, the player's most fundamental qualification!

Players have limited potential. Can a player who has just begun to evolve, that is, a low-level player, really withstand being exposed to too many evolution materials (bloodline, skills, physique) at once?

When high-level skills and powerful bloodlines appear in large numbers on a low-level player, it brings not only unparalleled combat power at the same level, but also a risk of going out of control far exceeding that of the same level!

Not every player can fill their player panel as carelessly as Jolyne.

Given this limitation of their own qualifications, even players with connections who want to cheat through external means must constantly consider whether they can withstand the consequences.

Of course, there will be some people in this world with extremely high aptitude who can withstand skills and bloodlines far exceeding those of their peers from the very beginning, but most of them are just ordinary players testing the limits of their own aptitude.

The former will become the "pro players" specially trained by various organizations, as mentioned by Soichiro Kuzuki.

The vast majority of the latter, under the threat of losing control, can only cautiously accept the family's resources, test their bottom line, and use skills and bloodlines that are appropriate for their level, but they dare not even upgrade these skills to too high a level.

There are solutions to this qualification issue, but here we'll only mention the most common one: improving your player level!

A basic rule is that as a player's level increases, they will gain free attribute points.

Free attribute points?

What is freedom?

That is something that will not burden players at all. The growth of this attribute will not bring pressure on aptitude, but rather it is like returning to the placenta, changing everything from destiny and enhancing the player's aptitude!

Therefore, if you don't have enough qualifications, even if you cheat, you can only use your 600-degree naked eye to peek at the test paper of the student in front of you who weighs 200 pounds. Only if you have enough qualifications can you take someone else's perfect test paper and change your name to your own.

Then someone will definitely ask that question again.

Since skills and bloodline cannot enhance oneself, why not just use external forces like equipment and items?

Equipment and items have conditions for use!

Leaving aside all sorts of bizarre conditions, the most common requirement for equipment and items is the requirement for the user's own attributes.

Moreover, because it does not involve qualifications, the price of equipment and props is obviously higher.

Especially equipment with fewer usage conditions and greater applicability, such as Joren's Yinluo Banner which only restricts intelligence level, and its price is far higher than that of ordinary equipment.

Ultimately, everything comes down to aptitude.

……

Yukino Yukinoshita does indeed have several pieces of equipment and items given to her by her older sister, such as the [The Kitten Can't Go to Heaven] which has a rule effect that she has already used. She looks at her last Command Spell and has decided to unseal an item immediately!

"Jolyne, I'll use a prop to temporarily switch our identities. We know each other so well, so remember to disguise yourselves well."

"No problem, Miss Yukinoshita."

Medea: "I will cover for your movements."

When entering the King's Army, Medea had already begun to build a shield, and now, the extraction of magic power is accelerating, concealing Yukino Yukinoshita's actions of using Command Seals.

"I will use a Command Spell to unseal one of my items - Double Incomplete!"

Props - Two-person unformed

Description: Grab my controller, now let's switch roles as "Dad" and "Mom" and see what difficulty keeps you from coordinating!

Effect: Briefly exchange identities in the Paradise game with "Identity Placement".

Bonus: None

Conditions for use: Obtain the other party's consent.

The prop is shaped like two coins. When Yukino Yukinoshita gives Jolyne the coin with her "mother's picture" printed on it, their identities planted by the amusement park are switched at that moment.

In the eyes of the locals of Fuyuki City.

Yukino Yukinoshita became Shinji Matou, and Jolyne became Taiga Fujimura!

When Kiritsugu Emiya's [Mysterious Severance] pierced Shinji Matou's brain, under the protection of Avalon, the strike not only failed to kill, but Taiga Fujimura, who was standing nearby, also smiled.

He said, "Got you."

Chapter 244 Three Main Characters

Yukino Yukinoshita, according to her own understanding, disguised herself as Jolyne in the form of Shinji Matou.

Jolyne, following her own understanding, disguised herself as Yukino Yukinoshita, mimicking Taiga Fujimura, and then launched a sarcastic remark against Yukino Yukinoshita for impersonating Jolyne.

Shirou Emiya was unaware that his friend Shinji Matou had been replaced once again behind his back.

When Kiritsugu Emiya arrived beside Shinji Matou using his A+ rank aura concealment, he unleashed the effects of his two Noble Phantasms, [Gather the Flowers While They Bloom] and [Mysterious Turning], in the instant of his attack.

As time accelerated, Kiritsugu Emiya looked at the unsuspecting Shinji Matou and swung his fatal blade!

Under Avalon's protection, Yukino Yukinoshita will not bleed and has no fatal weaknesses.

Despite the excruciating pain of her brain being pierced, Yukino Yukinoshita retorted, "That's enough!"

I can't die, but the pain is real!

It's like participating in a physical fitness test with paronychia – a truly rare and unforgettable experience.

"Avalon?"

When the Noble Phantasm's [Severance] effect failed to activate, Kiritsugu Emiya realized something was wrong and immediately tried to accelerate his time to re-enter the state of concealment, but by then he had already fallen into a trap.

Esdeath and Saber had unknowingly intercepted them at a position where they could retreat, and Medusa, who had been waiting for a long time, opened her petrifying magic eyes!

The assassin's blood froze for only a moment before Jolyne placed her hand on Kiritsugu Emiya.

"Why would such an opportunity expose my most vulnerable Master to me?"

Kiritsugu Emiya thought to himself, puzzled.

Due to a lack of information, he only believed that the assassination failed because he was using Avalon in place of Shinji Matou, and he was unaware of the change in identity.

Looking at Fujimura Taiga touching him, Emiya Kiritsugu had a question mark on his face.

Logically, the Heroic Spirits should be launching the strongest attack against me now, but instead, it is my Master who should be the one staying away from the assassins.

Instinct told Kiritsugu Emiya that there must be something wrong, but reason told him that he should take this opportunity to kill Taiga Fujimura, who dared to approach.

"Since the plan to kill Shinji Matou has failed, then let's kill Taiga Fujimura to cut our losses... Anyway, under the effect of the Holy Grail, the other side doesn't have the ability to completely kill me..."

The moment the thought crossed his mind, Kiritsugu Emiya was about to turn his blade around.

Jolyne smiled, for the time had come.

He said, "I've got you."

The next moment, Kiritsugu Emiya disappeared into the Reality Marble.

That's right, Jolyne moved him directly to the workshop!

Not enough combat power?

Yes, they're available in the workshop!

-

Just as Kiritsugu Emiya was transferred to the workshop, Jorogumo, who had been waiting for a long time, teleported him once again, making Kiritsugu Emiya appear in the Infinite Castle!

Countless spider webs formed a prison, and Kiritsugu Emiya fell into the trap like a moth.

"A Reality Marble? No, that's not right!"

Emiya Kiritsugu sensed the space around him, then looked at the spider silk that was piercing through him and absorbing his power. After a moment of stunned silence, he fell silent.

Curses, dreams, and the power of spatial cutting relentlessly ravage Assassin's fragile strength.

If this space hadn't failed to contain the power of the Black Grail, allowing Kiritsugu Emiya to continuously heal himself, he would have been killed the moment he set foot there.

"Where is the enemy?"

Emiya Kiritsugu possessed a B-rank innate skill – Magic. Without saying much, he immediately activated his magic to locate the enemy who was constantly attacking him.

Before he could find Jorogumo, he spotted a figure nearby.

Saeko Busujima walked forward, carrying a beautiful katana made of flesh and blood.

As the blade sliced ​​through the ground, beautiful purple petals began to bloom in the sky—a strike delivered by the combined power of [Breath of the Moon] and [Invisible Sword Aura].

Like cherry blossoms falling at five centimeters per second, the breathtakingly beautiful slashes began to drift irregularly toward Emiya Kiritsugu.

"Saeko, Master said we can't just kill him directly."

Jorogumo's voice rang in Saeko Busujima's ear, prompting her to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear and say gently, "I understand."

-

"May no one in this world harm anyone, and may all flaws be repaired!"
