Unlike the ordinary ghosts that are recruited, Oros is much more powerful, and it has no lingering worldly ties.
The only thing it cared about was the destroyed planet Kalan. Now that Ye Chen had taken over and revived the entire planet, it naturally had no unfulfilled wishes.
It can be said that Oros has perfectly met the requirements for taking up a position in the underworld, and Ye Chen is also thinking about what kind of position he should give it.
At level 0, Fengdu City can only offer a limited number of underworld positions, including ghost messengers, patrolmen, soul collectors, ferrymen, and judges.
However, the Soul Reaper and the Ferryman are special types of underworld positions with special recruitment conditions; the Judge is a promotion from the official position, requiring sufficient merit in the underworld, and cannot be directly appointed.
Therefore, the only positions that Oros can currently hold are ghost messenger and patrolman.
"Ghost messengers are similar to government officials in ancient times, responsible for trivial matters such as delivering letters and messages."
"The patrol is essentially a patrol team. It sounds ordinary, but its actual rank is very high. It is divided into day patrols and night patrols. The former is stronger and its rank is comparable to a judge, which is perfect for Oros now!"
"Just a level 6 peak daytime patrol? This is probably the strongest patrol in history, right? And the key is that it's a Western dragon!"
Ye Chen chuckled to himself, sensing that his Fengdu City might be going to have a slightly different feel in the future.
"Oros, are you willing to live in Fengdu City and become a patrolman to protect the peace of the entire city?" Ye Chen raised his head and asked Oros with a serious expression.
Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, Oros was taken aback at first, but then seemed to sense the will of the entire Fengdu City, and the dragon head in its soul form also showed a solemn expression.
"To live in Fengdu City and become a wandering official?" Oros murmured, glancing at the empty city of Fengdu, and asked, "After becoming a wandering official, can I leave this city?"
“Of course, Fengdu City is a ghost city, the final resting place for all the dead, not a prison. You can certainly leave!” Ye Chen nodded and said, “You are still a member of my territory’s clan. If you can’t leave, how can you protect the territory?”
Moreover, as Ye Chen said, Fengdu City is indeed the destination of the dead, not a cage. Its purpose is to restore the rules of the world and allow souls to rest in peace, not to confine them here. Otherwise, more and more souls would only overwhelm the entire Fengdu City.
“Then I am willing to become a patrolman to protect this city of the dead!” Having received the answer he wanted, Oros nodded in agreement.
Only by becoming a dead soul can one truly understand the desolation and loneliness of the dead. If this city is truly the final resting place for all the dead, then it is willing to spend the rest of its life protecting this city.
"Very well, in the name of the lord, I now bestow upon you the position of Day Wanderer, to travel the world and protect Fengdu!" Ye Chen said solemnly, and immediately a golden light descended from the dim sky, enveloping Oros.
Suddenly, Oros's illusory soul solidified again, quickly becoming indistinguishable from an ordinary living being. If one did not sense its aura, one would not even be able to tell that it was a ghost.
Moreover, the golden radiance seemed to be the light of merit, giving Oros a faint divine glow that dispelled the surrounding darkness.
"Roar~~~" The dragon's roar echoed above Fengdu City. The four ghosts that had been recruited earlier all raised their heads and looked at the giant dragon in the sky, all of them sensing the dragon's role.
Ye Chen, standing in front of Oros, also felt a terrifying aura rushing towards him. Oros's attributes flashed through his mind, and a hint of surprise immediately appeared in his eyes.
After becoming a Day Wanderer, Oros's strength had crossed the final hurdle, becoming a 7th-tier demigod. Although he was only the weakest demigod, it was still a world of difference compared to the 6th tier.
"The position of the Underworld can actually be upgraded, that's just too outrageous! And this kind of upgrade doesn't affect its own growth, although the subsequent growth won't be as significant as before!" Ye Chen exclaimed inwardly, his eyes filled with both surprise and disbelief.
The mere appointment as a day-roaming god was enough to make Oros take this final step. Although it was only a difference of 1 attribute point, it stumped countless people.
This is only the lowest-ranking position of the Day Wanderer. If it were the later positions such as Judge, King Yama, or Ghost Emperor, wouldn't the promotion be even more exaggerated?
"Oros, the daytime wandering god of Fengdu City, greets the Great Emperor of Fengdu!" Oros flapped his wings and slowly landed on the ground, bowing his head in salute to Ye Chen.
As the lord of Fengdu City, Ye Chen is naturally also the emperor of the entire city. Since Oros has already taken up a post in Fengdu City, he is now under Ye Chen's jurisdiction, which is completely different from the previous contractual relationship between the two parties.
"You're too kind. Go and deal with those dark creatures outside first!" Ye Chen nodded and said. A seventh-tier Day Wanderer must be even more terrifying than before.
"Yes, sir!" Oros nodded in response, then soared into the air and plunged into the starry sky.
At the same time, Ye Chen continued to examine Oros's talent. Compared to before, Oros had gained many more talents and abilities of a Day Wanderer.
The first is day travel, which allows Oros to move freely in the outside world without being bound by sunlight, although the concept of the sun does not exist in those fallen dark worlds.
In addition, there is the ability to injure souls. As a lineage of Yin Ghost Messengers in Fengdu City, the Wanderers do not have a strong ability to bind souls, but they are extremely capable of damaging souls. Each attack can injure the opponent's soul, which greatly enhances Oros's offensive capabilities.
Of course, the ability to capture souls still exists in the underworld, but it is not as powerful as that of a dedicated soul capturer. Oros can capture the souls of other creatures and bring them to Fengdu City. After being judged by the judge and baptized in the eighteen levels of hell, they are made to "repent" and "become ghosts again," becoming official residents of Fengdu City. They can even have the ability to reincarnate in their territory.
This cycle will become a way for Ye Chen to expand the population of his territory. The deceased members of the clan will be able to grow faster after reincarnation and have a certain chance of inheriting the experience of their previous life.
Furthermore, reincarnation is not limited to the human realm; it can also occur in the realms of livestock and plants, thus avoiding the problems of slow reproduction and development of clans.
You should know that on the primordial land, everything can become a spirit!
