Chapter 266: Steve

"I advise you not to mess with the 'toad'."

Fang Mo held Zeppeli's shoulder, warning him earnestly, "The force of fate in this world seems to have a special affection for toads. Anyone who dares to mistreat a toad... is basically not far from death."

"Huh?"

Zeppeli looked at Fang Mo somewhat strangely.

"You're just a passerby Ripple Messenger, not a wizard, so it's normal for you not to know these secrets."

Fang Mo shrugged, explaining seriously, "In this world, a toad is the incarnation of a supreme deity. Anyone who bullies a toad, whether they are good or evil, will have a very tragic end."

"Teacher, are you serious?"Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

Jonathan became nervous immediately, "I think I caught frogs in the river when I was a kid."

"You see, case closed, right?"

Fang Mo spread his hands, "I said, why would such a good kid like you die young? It turns out you bullied a toad. No worries, I'll find an opportunity to chop off your head as a treatment..."

Indeed, Fang Mo was not joking. In the world of JOJO, those who dared to harm a toad really did die.

Zeppeli used a toad to demonstrate the power of Ripple to everyone, resulting in a tragic sacrifice, and Dio disintegrated because he insulted a toad.

Tearful Luca struck a toad and died on the spot. Doppio developed a sudden illness and used a toad as a phone, brutally shot to death. Diavolo ate a frog alive, falling into an endless cycle of death. Risotto extracted iron from a frog and was killed by a small plane.

Even the invincible Stardust Crusaders of the third part suffered tragedies because of eating a toad banquet, including but not limited to Kakyoin being punched through the chest, Avdol being consumed by void fog, Iggy beaten to death, Polnareff losing everything including friends, his body, and his Stand, Joseph suffering from dementia, and Jotaro dying heroically to protect his daughter.

Even Father Pucci, the final antagonist of the sixth part Stone Ocean, died unexpectedly at the moment his final wish was about to be fulfilled, due to causing a frog's head to explode.

It is well known that the author Hirohiko Araki likes to depict the death of animals in his works.

However, toads seem to have exceptionally good luck, leading to an enthusiastic netizen proposing the famous Araki Toad Hypothesis after some careful deliberation.

"What's the principle behind this?"

Zeppeli, after hearing Fang Mo's explanation, was also somewhat baffled, "Why would fate be tied to a toad?"

"Magic doesn't care about principles; we only focus on the actual effects that occur."

Fang Mo shook his head, "Those of us who practice magic are similar to those who code. We don't know why this generation... this magic works, but it just does, so all you need to know is to avoid provoking it... Anyway, just steer clear of it next time."

"That sounds really absurd."

After hearing Fang Mo's words, Zeppeli was honestly baffled.

However, he soon recalled the prophecy of the Master Tonpetty, which said that the man in front of him was so powerful that he could even tear apart fate. After thinking for a moment, Zeppeli nodded respectfully, "Thank you for the warning, I'll be careful."

"If you really want to use a creature to demonstrate Ripple, I suggest you use this."

Seeing Zeppeli's understanding, Fang Mo smiled, directly pulling out the materialized Silverfish from behind him, squeezing its belly lightly. Two eggs flew out instantly, turning into two glowing maggots... or Silverfish.

"This is..." Everyone was stunned at the sight.

"Miner's Happy Worm."

Fang Mo said, "In any case, it's a kind of magical creature that can be used as a torch. Alright, Mr. Zeppeli, hurry up and show your Ripple to JoJo."

"Okay."

After hearing his son's suggestion, George didn't refuse but nodded in agreement. After all, the instinct to survive is innate to humans, and in a strict sense, George had already died, hadn't he?

George Joestar's resignation to death...

What does it have to do with his son, Jonathan Joestar?

Anyway, very soon

George's funeral went as scheduled.

However, it's worth mentioning that Fang Mo did not actually attend the funeral. He only briefly returned to stab George's corpse and then left again. Consequently, the funeral was presided over by Speedwagon.

Although the Joestar family mansion was burned down, the Joestar fortune wasn't limited to just that house. Therefore, Jonathan bought a good plot for a grave and seriously held a funeral for his father, following Fang Mo's advice. He commissioned a craftsman to carve a tombstone made of gneiss for his father.

Afterwards, Jonathan devoted himself to learning Ripple.

As for Fang Mo?

He was working as a miner in Egypt at that time.

After all, he had no interest in Ripple, a technique that used breathing to generate energy from the blood. Since Fang Mo didn't have a drop of blood in his body, what was the point in learning it? Instead of staying there as a mere spectator, he thought it better to go to Egypt and stir things up.

Despite living comfortably in the world of JoJo, Fang Mo knew he didn't belong there. His only two purposes for being there were to change misfortunes and to obtain the Stand Arrow.

Now, with his influence, the misfortunes in the original story should have been resolved. So, he shifted his focus to the Stand Arrow. While Jonathan was learning Ripple, Fang Mo went to Egypt to make arrangements, hoping to unearth the Stand Arrow soon and not waste more time here.

Due to a previous suggestion from Ah Xue, Fang Mo brought many monsters from the MC world this time.

Utilizing the translation capabilities of the Chinese mod, combined with the financial power of gold, Fang Mo quickly established a small force in Egypt and began experimenting with the real-world adaptation of these monsters.

The first creatures to be adapted to reality were the Goblins.

After being adapted to reality, the Goblin looked almost identical in appearance. They were less than a meter tall, slightly hunched, carrying a pickaxe, wearing a small red hat, with weird yellow-green skin. Although they had human-like facial features, they always looked sneaky and often made annoying laughs like 'hehehe' or 'hahaha'.

"Emmm..."

Fang Mo, looking at these sneaky Goblins, fell into deep thought.

"Hehehe, master," the Goblins laughed mischievously, then started speaking to Fang Mo all at once, "Please give us your orders, we will... hahaha... complete the mission."

"Really? But why does your laugh sound so unreliable?" Fang Mo wiped his face. "Then show me your talents; let me see what you can do."

"Hehehe... Alright!"

The Goblins exchanged glances and began their performance.

One of them started digging with its pickaxe and quickly made a narrow tunnel-like hole, then disappeared into it.

Another started tilling the ground with its pickaxe as if preparing to plant something.

The last two, exchanging knowing looks, suddenly pulled out two large dynamite sticks. Before Fang Mo could react, they lit the fuse with flint and, laughing strangely, turned and ran. The whole process was smooth and left Fang Mo stunned.

"No... Oh crap!"
