Chapter 342: Chapter 62: Subduing Nesia, Preparing to Mass-Produce Top-tier Vampire Mages

At His Majesty the Emperor’s command, Kuge acted without the slightest hesitation.

He immediately dispatched the main force of Royal Dragon Cavalry and Ancient Giant Dragons to launch a fierce assault on the Lord’s Halls of the Pride Lord and the Gale Lord.

Amidst the clang of blades and the wails of Evil God Soldiers, the remaining defenders were quickly annihilated.

Once the threat from the Evil God Players was dealt with, he immediately led a team of elite Royal Dragon Cavalry to the Holy Mountain where the Ancient Giant Dragons were trapped. His gaze was fixed on the Magic Chains glinting with an eerie light, ready to free the ancient creatures.

When all the Ancient Giant Dragons had successfully broken free, Kuge immediately approached them. He briefly but clearly recounted everything that had just happened, including the impending disaster of the Evil God Invasion.

He then presented the Ancient Giant Dragons with a choice: to join the Holy Empire and fight side by side with His Majesty Tingfeng to resist this overwhelming catastrophe.

Throughout the conversation, Kuge repeatedly emphasized that His Majesty Tingfeng’s position was crystal clear.

As long as the Ancient Giant Dragons did not stand against the Holy Empire, he would completely respect their decision and would never force their hand.

The sincere offer of recruitment.

The life-debt they could not forget.

And the unparalleled combat prowess displayed while annihilating the Evil God Believers.

This triple assault shattered the pride of the Ancient Giant Dragons.

They hesitated no longer. With the exception of a few who were still weighing their options, the vast majority of the Ancient Giant Dragons bowed their heads and swore an oath to His Majesty Tingfeng on the spot, pledging their strength to fight against the second phase of the Evil God Invasion.

Meanwhile, Qin Feng activated the Power of Authority from his Eye of the Hunter. The moment the ability unfolded, it locked onto his target.

He then leaped onto the back of a Winged Dragon Beast, soaring through the howling wind across the rolling peaks of the Holy Mountain, and finally landed steadily in the secret location where Nesia’s real body was hiding.

However.

An unexpected scene unfolded.

The Nesia before him, though he acted and spoke just like the real person, was not his true body. It was merely a Magic Clone condensed from Magic.

Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, then calmly deduced the reason. Eye of the Hunter had never tracked an enemy’s physical body, but rather their core Original Soul.

Nesia’s soul was currently controlling this Clone, so his Original Soul was naturally bound to the Magic Clone. Due to the rules governing the Talent, Eye of the Hunter couldn’t bypass the Magic Clone to locate the soulless, empty main body.

’All right.’

’Looks like I’ll have to deal with a few more Magic Clones... ’

’before I can kill this guy for good.’

With his mind made up, Qin Feng’s gaze hardened. He unleashed the Gray Lord Profession’s ultimate Spirit Control ability, performing a spirit check on the Nesia Clone before him.

[Warning! Your "Spirit Control" has failed! The target’s will remains firm!]

Immediately after, lightning erupted around him as the Spell for Mjolnir exploded in his mind.

In an instant, a dozen Light Hammers wreathed in violet lightning materialized from the clouds. With a sharp sound of tearing air, they thundered down toward the Nesia Clone.

Before the hammers even struck, the ground was already scorched black with lightning strikes, and the surrounding air crackled with a scorching, numbing sensation.

The Nesia Clone’s pupils shrank, and a faint blue Magic Halo instantly lit up around his body.

The moment before Mjolnir was about to hit him, the halo suddenly burst. His figure vanished from the spot, leaving only a faint ripple in space.

He had obviously used a Flash-type skill to dodge the fierce attack.

However, just as Nesia reappeared in a clearing ten meters away, the ground beneath his feet suddenly churned violently.

Thorned vines that had been lying in wait underground shot out, coiling around his limbs and torso like vipers ready to strike.

It turned out that while casting Mjolnir, Qin Feng had already used Thorn Entanglement to predict Nesia’s likely Flash location, setting a vine trap there in advance.

The Nesia Clone cried out in alarm and tried to activate his Magic to break free, but the thorny vines only tightened their grip.

The thorns on the vines’ surface glowed with a faint green light. Poison seeped through his skin, causing his Magic Power to stagnate instantly, leaving him completely under control. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"Heh!"

"You really never learn, do you?"

"You fell into my hands this way last time, and you’ve fallen for it again."

As he spoke, a cold smile played on his lips, and he casually snapped his fingers.

In an instant, Vampire Nesia, who had been hiding in the shadows, suddenly dropped his Invisibility. He flashed in front of the Nesia Clone, creating a pincer attack.

Nesia: "..."

’Son of a bitch!?’

’How does this guy have another large-area Control Skill!?’

’And!’

’What the hell is with this "traitorous" Magic Clone!?’

’Why does it have a soul!?’

At this moment, all sorts of thoughts flooded Nesia’s mind like a tidal wave, but he just pressed his lips together and remained silent.

Because he understood one thing very clearly.

’Tingfeng isn’t a normal person at all!!!’

’He’s an absolute monster!!!’

’A being ten thousand times more terrifying than those crazed Evil God Believers!!!’

’Faced with a Heaven-defying guy like this, any words are useless. It’s better to just stand here and wait for death, then withdraw my Original Soul from this unsalvageable Magic Clone as quickly as possible and return to my real body hidden in the Gulad Empire.’

However, the terrifying attack he expected—one powerful enough to crush him in an instant—did not come as anticipated.
