??Soul Domination!

In the southeast region of the Elven Forest, Boxlunch was exploring with his battle party.

“Hey Box, all the major guilds have started looking for Rivendell, why don’t we go too?” a curious player asked.

Boxlunch remained silent for a moment before saying, “But we’re on a mission.”

“What mission?” the remaining team members were stunned.

One team member then sighed, “You know, I don’t think we have to strictly follow the instructions of the goddess every time we act. This game has a lot of freedom, and we can explore and perhaps even trigger hidden plotlines on our own.”

Boxlunch remained silent for a moment before saying, “If we accept a mission, then we should complete it properly before doing a new one.”

Players: …

Well he was not wrong. They had accepted a mission from Alice to find the Beastmen stronghold, and finding the stronghold was indeed their top priority.

However…even though they knew this, seeing all the players on the forum frantically searching for Rivendell, the fabled city mentioned by NPCs, made them inevitably affected.

“It won’t take too long,” Boxlunch said again, then jumped forward and ran ahead.

The remaining team members all looked at each other and shrugged. Clearly they had no choice but to follow.

They were approaching the edge of the Elven Forest. According to the information they obtained from the members of Rageblaze clan, they should be able to find the traces of the Beastmen soon.

In fact, if it weren’t for the bull headed Black Dragon Meryer who refused to tell the way, the players would have already reached the orcs’ location.

While they were on the move, suddenly…Boxlunch stopped.

His expression became very serious in an instant.

“What’s wrong?”

Seeing their party captain looking like he was facing a formidable enemy, the other players became alert.

“Someone is approaching, and they’re very strong…”

Boxlunch said in a low voice.

The other players’ expressions instantly became guarded when they heard this.

Boxlunch was a Hunter profession and had recently exchanged for a scouting ability, combined with his already powerful awareness, his ability to predict danger was very strong.

Boxlunch’s words were never to be disregarded.

“Clap… clap… clap…”

While the few people were on guard, there suddenly came a burst of elegant applause from far ahead.

A slender figure appeared and walked leisurely before them.

With a handsome and pale face, crimson eyes, a black ponytail, and a black cloak that never had a single wrinkle…

It was Count Night Wanderer.

He waved his hand slightly, and a goblet filled with blood appeared in his hand. He then took a sip and said,

“Not bad, very vigilant.”

At that moment, the players’ faces all became serious.

Because they didn’t sense this person’s approach at all!

At this moment, they once again marveled at Boxlunch’s perception ability.

After the alert, they gradually became excited again…

Is this a new NPC? Did they trigger a hidden quest flag?

Night Wanderer is very powerful. Moreover, as a vampire who claims to be a noble race, they have a sense of style in their dress and behavior.

In simple terms, he looks like a Boss mob, very cool and showy.

With his appearance, he really stunned a few players and made flabbergasted.

Boxlunch’s eyes also brightened, and he said in a low voice:

“…Who are you, sir?”

Night Wanderer was somewhat surprised.

The characteristics of the vampires were still very prominent, but these elves didn’t recognize him…

Moreover, after he revealed himself, he didn’t conceal his powerful aura anymore. However, the several elves on the other side were not afraid or intimidated, but seemed to be slightly excited…

What ignorant and strange elves! freew(e)bnove(l)

A hint of a smile appeared at the corner of Night Wanderer’s mouth, and his crimson eyes suddenly burst with a deep red light. His voice was unquestionable:

“I command you… tell me your origins, as well as the existence behind you. Who is planning what?”

A subtle mental wave spread from Night Wanderer and went straight into the brains of the players!

[Soul Control]

This is a magic spell of Night Wanderer that directly affects the soul.

Anyone whose soul power is lower than his will become his puppet!

However, to his surprise, instead of a few people submitting to him, he was met with bewildered expressions instead.

“Why should we submit to you?”

“Why should we tell you these things?”

Night Wanderer: …

It…it didn’t work?

He widened his eyes in surprise.

“Is this NPC…stupid?”

A player muttered as they looked at the vampire’s blank expression.

Night Traveler’s face darkened.

He snorted lightly and his whole body turned into a phantom.

“Watch out!”

Boxlunch’s face instantly changed.

Before the other players could react, the unlucky person who had spoken last was suddenly grabbed by the hostile NPC by the throat and then lifted up.

Several players looked shocked and quickly drew their weapons to attack the hostile NPC, but he simply raised his hand lightly to blocked all their attacks.

“So strong…!”

The players looked horrified.

It should be noted that Boxlunch’s team had the highest DPS and level amongst all the playerbase!

They looked at each other, nodded, and then turned and ran.

If you can’t beat them, then run away.

For players, there is no point in being stubborn, especially now that the number of perfect revivals is dropping and every life is important to them!

Even Boxlunch hesitated and looked at the player who was caught by the NPC before choosing to flee as well.

“Hulu..sorry, I’ll leave the hidden quest to you.”

Before he ran away, he shouted loudly to the player who was caught.

Hulu: …

Upon seeing the few people attempting to escape, a hint of mockery appeared in the Night Wanderer’s expression.

He snorted coldly and countless black bats flew out from his body, entangling and biting the fleeing players.

The players were horrified to find their bodies losing control as they were bitten by the bats.

Their bodies stiffened and they fell to the ground one by one.

Boxlunch’s face changed, and he drew his dagger to eliminate the bats that charged towards him. However, after knocking down the other players, all the bats then focused on him alone.

Even he eventually collapsed after holding on for a while.

Boxlunch gritted his teeth, raised his dagger and slashed his own arm, causing blood to flow freely.

But even so, he couldn’t escape from this stiffness… 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝑏𝓃ℴ𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮

After knocking down all the players, the bats returned to Night Wanderer’s body.

These were his bat familiars that could secrete a special toxin of the vampire clan, causing the bodies of those who came into contact with the toxin to become numb and ultimately lose control.

This was also a toxin commonly used by vampires when hunting for blood donors.

Even if Boxlunch self-harmed, he would not be able to escape.

Night Wanderer was very satisfied. He shifted his gaze to the player he had captured still in his grip, apparently named “Hulu”.

Hulu looked at his fallen teammates with a helpless expression, but his face showed no fear. Instead, he looked at the Night Wanderer with pure curiosity.

Hmm…

According to Demacia’s experience, cooperating appropriately when captured can stimulate hidden plots…

Night Wanderer:…

Hulu’s obedient expression surprised the vampire even more, and he even shuddered unexpectedly:

What an ignorant and fearless, and slightly disgusting strange elf…

He squinted his eyes and once again used Soul Control.

This time, the target was only Hulu.

However, his mental magic was as if it sank into the ocean, with no response…

“Huh, Immune to mental magic…”

Night Wanderer muttered.

He was baffled and his eyes turned crimson again:

“Tell me… your secrets, and also… what was the hidden mission you just mentioned.”

This time, he gave up on mental magic and chose to use psychological suggestion that directly affected the consciousness instead.
