Chapter 393 – Cat Dad Upgrades His Friends

Magdalene sweated profusely. She looked around her like a scardy cat.

When Shepherd went out to fight alongside Titania and others, Magdalene hid in her husband’s dantian universe. After Shepherd died, his dantian universe collapsed, causing Magdalene to be trapped in a void.

“Hubby, did you die?”

Magdalene cried. She regretted that she didn’t join the fight against Hiiro and other intruders. Now, she was trapped alone in the darkness.

The fairy hugged her knees and sobbed. She indulged herself in her past memories when Shepherd and she went out on an adventure together without Xiaomao noticing. She wished she could go back and experienced it again.

Magdalene lost count of how long she got stuck there as there was no indication of day and night. She fell into a long slumber.

By the time she woke up, she noticed a bright ray of light from a distance. She stopped imagining impossible scenarios and followed the light. At the end of the light tunnel, she found the silhouette of the man she held dear.

“SHEPHERD!!”

The man turned around to look at her. He beamed at her with a bright smile.

Magdalene couldn’t clearly see his face as the light was too bright – His face was covered by a curtain of the darkest shadow for an unknown reason.

Shepherd’s smile slowly faded. He extended his hand and lightly tabbed Magdalene. Upon being touched, the fairy lost control of her body. As if something pulled her with great force, Magdalene flew backward, away from Shepherd.

“I’m sorry, Magdalene. I have some unfinished business on this side. Go back and tell master Xiaomao that I’ll be back shortly.”

“Shepherd, NOOOO!!”

“I love you, Magdalene.”

WHOOSH

As if Magdalene’s consciousness fell into the pit of light, she couldn’t see anything but a white void for a long time. When her eyesight finally adjusted to the light, she started hearing voices and familiar game notification messages.

DING

<You have been respawned.>

<You have lost 1 level because of your master’s death.>

Magdalene widened her eyes. She sat up and looked around. Then, she found herself surrounded by many seniors.

Mimir, Undine, Nymph, Jungwoo, an immortal ent, two tiger women, and a naked dryad with a big bust gazed at her.

“Eh? Where am I?” Magdalene was confused.

“Welcome back, girly.” Mimir laughed.

“Err, what? What happened?”

The green-haired dryad explained, “You were probably inside Shepherd’s dantian universe when he died. His physical dantian was destroyed, but his soul ejected you and bound your soul with his karma strings.”

“Huh?”

Magdalene was confused. He looked at Mimir, hoping for a simplified explanation.

Mimir sighed, “Shepherd ejected you out of his body and hid you before he died. You were lost in the void where Pangu stored the newborn souls for his game’s NPCs.”

“Anyway, you’re Shepherd’s familiar, so you temporarily died along with him there. We resurrected you, but we couldn’t find Shepherd’s true soul in this world.”

Mimir wished to explain how the resurrection worked, but they were busy. He sent Magdalene back to the B10 floor so she could be with Yuan Hua.

.

After sending Magdalene away, Hopea continued with their business, “Let’s head to the place where your people died, so we can find their souls if they are still lingering in the area. If their souls are gone, we can track their karma to find their whereabouts, and I can bring them to life.”

“Of course. Also, thank you very much. If there is anything you need us to do, please do tell us. We’ll gladly help you.” Mimir bowed.

“Don’t mention it,” Hopea turned around and ordered Mao Xueyan, “Sister Xueyan, can you collect the souls of Xingjuan’s subordinates for me? I’ll resurrect them while I’m at it. As for Sister Dandan, can you contact Ma Moxi and bring Sister Xingjuan here? We need to regroup.”

“Okay!”

Mao Xueyan and Mao Dandan started working. The pretty weretigress left the dungeon and explored the battle site outside the cave. Mao Dandan, on the other hand, closed her eyes and communicated with Ma Moxi via telepathy.

The ent, Ohuhu, pointed his branch at his face, “What about me?”

“Collect the corpses of Pangu’s minions and capture the deserters. Clean up Cernun’s home and bring the souls of fairies here.”

“Yes, ma’am!” Ohuhu saluted and vanished into smoke.

Meanwhile, Jungwoo nervously looked back and forth between the seniors. He was at a loss for what he should do.

“Ran Tae,” Hopea called for Jungwoo.

“Y-Yes, senior!”

“You stay here with Dandan. I’ll be going with Sir Mimir and my daughter-in-laws. When the tribal chiefs come, tell them to be respectful to the dungeon residents and wait outside first. Do not enter without permission.”

“Y-Yes, senior!” Jungwoo saluted and sweated profusely.

Hopea giggled as she noticed how nervous Jungwoo was. Also, the tigerman forgot to hide his boner.

“Another thing, I’ll introduce you to a few young tigresses after this. You’re an adult, but you still smell like a virgin. It’s bad for your prestige as a male tiger. Your demeanor and scent are supposed to be more masculine, not like an awkward cherry boy.”

“…”

Jungwoo wanted to retort that he already had a girlfriend in the real world, but he didn’t dare to speak up. His face flushed in shame and embarrassment.

= B10 Floor =

The troops were still on alert as they weren’t sure about the situation outside the dungeon. Joan, Gata, and Party Queen managed their people, maintaining the Party Girl and Mannequin troops’ morale.

As for the scarlet war maidens, they were excused as their nests needed to be rebuilt from scratch. The queen ants and the troops migrated to the B12 floor, which was a copy of the B9 floor.

As there was no clear leader among the ants, they moved by instinct. However, things changed today after Xiaomao took the helm of the dungeon.

DING-DING-DING

Suddenly, one of the 4th-generation ant queens stopped walking. She trembled and staggered before she collapsed to the ground. The nurse ants rushed to support her. However, it was unnecessary.

A stream of silver wind circled around the ant queen and entered her body. Then, the sick queen received a strange notification message from the dungeon OS.

<Dungeon Master Xiaomao has spent 1,000,000 DP to increase your level to 9,999.>

<Dungeon Master Xiaomao has spent 5,000,000 DP to upgrade you into a named monster.>

<Your name will be remembered as Rennala, the Supreme Scalet Queen.>

<Dungeon Master Xiaomao has spent 200,000,000 DP to upgrade you into a deity!>

<Your level has increased to 10,000! You are evolving!>

The ant queen, now known as Rennala, curled herself into a ball. A massive golden cocoon emerged from her skin and wrapped around her, sealing her entire body inside.

The ants were astonished at first. They tried to bite the cocoon, attempting to rescue the queen. However, their mandibles got hurt as their fangs couldn’t penetrate the hard shell of the cocoon.

Ifrit noticed the commotion. He shoved some of the ants away and inspected her up close. Then, he touched the surface of the cocoon.

“Hmm… Huh, wait a minute. Is this… HOLY SHIT, MUSCLES!!”

Ifrit jumped in shock. He couldn’t suppress his excitement as he knew the material of the cocoon.

“Providence Cocoon! We got a new deity in the house!!”

The commotion attracted everybody’s attention. They surrounded the cocoon and checked it.

John asked the senior, “What’s Providence Cocoon, sir?”

Ifrit puffed his chest and flexed his muscles, “It’s a monster ascension ritual. Whenever an immortal beast or monster reaches a certain strength threshold or gains enlightenment, it can form a cocoon around itself to shred its physical body. Then, it can construct its ethereal physique. Think of a cicada. This queen is going to shred her shells and become a deity!”

“… Wow.”

John gazed at the cocoon in awe and respect. He misunderstood her, believing that the queen had worked hard for this evolution. Nobody in the dungeon could see the messages that Rennala saw.

Suddenly, something similar happened again.

DING-DING-DING

Party Queen and Gata collapsed next. They received similar messages, and golden cocoons formed around them. Like Rinnala, they hibernated, getting ready to become a deity.

Taotie, who had been silently watching everybody, was the first to notice the template. He narrowed his eyes for a moment before he sent a voice transmission to Xiaomao, who was in the treasure room on the B7 floor.

‘Boy, did you just upgrade the girls or something? Can you do that?’

Xiaomao quickly replied, ‘Yes, but it’s quite expensive, munya. I can create one more deity for the dungeon with the current Dungeon Points, munya.’

Taotie had a sick idea. He volunteered, ‘Can you upgrade me?’

‘I’m sorry, senior. I can only upgrade the resident monsters. Your status is a guest of this dungeon, munya. I can’t do anything to you other than give you access permission to every area.’

Hearing that he had to become a dungeon’s permanent resident first to qualify for the upgrade, Taotie hesitated. He was aware of the dungeon’s perverted characteristic, which always gender-swapped male residents into women.

Taotie sat and looked at his manhood. He weighed the pros and cons of keeping it.

Driven by envy, Taotie glanced at the cocoons. He made the bravest decision in his life.

‘Save those Dungeon Points for me! Tell me how to join your dungeon as a permanent resident! Once I join you, use those points on me! Make me a deity, you hear?’

A minute later, Taotie received an invitation.

DING

<Dungeon Master Xiaomao of Slave Dungeon has invited you to join his dungeon as a permanent resident.>

<Will you accept?>

Taotie burst into laughter. He thought of the previous humiliating defeat, which he didn’t want to experience again. He bellowed with determination.

“MAKE ME THE GIRLIEST, PRETTIEST, AND BADASSEST DEITY, XIAOMAO!! I ACCEPT!!”

DING

<You have joined Slave Dungeon as a permanent resident.>

<Due to the dungeon’s traits, your gender has been changed.>

<Dungeon Master Xiaomao has spent 1,000,000 DP to increase your level to 9999.>

<Dungeon Master Xiaomao has spent 200,000,000 DP to upgrade you into a deity!>
