When Cao Xing took out the leader-level vine, Discover more novels at novᴇlfire.net

he suddenly noticed a slight change in Edward’s expression, who was caught by the soldiers.

He could feel the unimaginable toughness of the leader-level vine in Cao Xing’s hand.

“Assam, go tie them up,” he ordered.

The knight walked over respectfully.

When he took the vine from Cao Xing’s hand and gradually approached Edward, a hint of panic appeared in his eyes.

Cao Xing noticed something was wrong with him.

“Edward, what’s wrong with you?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, a terrifying black aura suddenly burst out from ’Edward’s’ body!

Four powerful Ascalon soldiers were simultaneously sent flying!

Then he was about to turn and run.

At the critical moment, Cao Xing quickly used the [Large Capture Net Launcher].

“Boom!”

The large capture net directly ensnared ’Edward,’ halting his escape.

At the same time, all the combat personnel on the scene instantly reacted, surrounding Edward tightly.

At this moment, the ’Edward’ on the ground seemed to realize he was exposed.

He slowly stood up from the ground.

Substantial black aura continuously emerged from his body.

Moreover, this black aura flowed from his mouth, nose, and even eyes!

He looked at Cao Xing, the corners of his mouth curving into a terrifying smile!

Then he said, “Did I… still get exposed?”

At that moment, everyone on the scene drew their weapons, readying for battle.

Cao Xing, seeing he had found the right target, also breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, “Who are you?”

’Edward’ grinned again, “Who am I?”

“I have many identities, dating back thousands of years… ”

“I’ve been the wealthiest beggar and the poorest king. I’ve toyed with the kingdom’s princess and tasted the beauty of the elves… ”

“I’ve even served as clergy at the Church Court for a time.”

“So, which identity would you like to know?”

Cao Xing replied, “I know, you are a demon.”

As he spoke, he hurled an [Ice Ball Skill] directly.

“Boom!”

[-4732]

At this moment, ’Edward’s’ blood volume had already hit zero, but he still stood there.

And he showed Cao Xing a terrifying smile.

“Do you think you can capture me like this?”

“Even the most powerful demon hunter is helpless against me, and even those church personnel revere me as a deity… ”

“I sensed the magical power in your territory. If you’re willing to submit to me, I will grant you everything you desire!”

But Cao Xing sneered and said, “Submit to you? I’m afraid you’re not worthy.”

“Go ahead, eliminate this guy.”

With that, Cao Xing flung the [Ice Soul Spinning Spear] directly.

[-3742]

[-3354]

[-3372]

…

Yet ’Edward’ still stood where he was, a terrifying smile reappearing at the corners of his mouth.

“Humans, you’ve made the worst decision of your life… ”

“From today, your territory, and you, will live in fear forever…”

“You will gradually become like that pitiful painter, afraid to sleep at night, afraid to go out, spiraling into spiritual disorder, and losing emotional control.”

“Until one day, you kneel on the ground, begging me to set you free!”

By this time, the soldiers’ attacks had already descended.

Various long spears and blades slashed at his body.

“Puh! Puhpuhpuh!”

However, strangely, these sword blades landed on ’Edward’s’ body as if on a mass of oil, causing no damage at all.

Simultaneously, endless black aura erupted from his body!

The entire territory seemed to be enveloped in a terrifying aura!

Then, a piercing voice rang in their ears.

“Hehehe… remember, be wary of anyone around you!”

In the next moment, the black aura vanished.

At the same time, a system prompt appeared.

[Survivors, please note that your territory has been marked by an entity, triggering a special event: Demon Invasion.]

[Event Introduction: A demon has appeared in your territory. It can randomly possess anyone’s body. Please discern carefully and find it.]

…

Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing frowned slightly, “A demon that can possess?”

His gaze swiftly scanned the surroundings.

He found that over two hundred people on the field all looked with vigilance and seriousness.

At this moment, he noticed an Ascalon soldier in the crowd with a gloomy face and a terrifying smile!

“Capture him.”

Following Cao Xing’s command, a large number of Ascalon soldiers instantly moved, pinning the soldier to the ground.

Yet the soldier, while pinned down, continued to grin, “Oh? You’ve got me? And then?”

“Do you have a way to deal with me?”

It grinned broadly as if mocking them wantonly!

However, Cao Xing and others naturally couldn’t really act against their subjects.

So, he looked at Liu Muxue next to him and said, “Use the large capture net launching device.”

Liu Muxue executed without hesitation.

“Boom!”

A gigantic animal trap net covered the soldier.

At this moment, the soldier’s body trembled violently, and a mass of black aura shot out from his body.

The soldier also fainted due to severe spiritual shock.

The demon’s possession did not fall under spiritual attack and thus could not be immune to [Faith Thought] skill.

Cao Xing frowned again.

“It’s quite tricky.”

“This bastard actually possesses my subjects, and I can’t hurt my own people.”

“Moreover, ordinary control methods seem ineffective against it.”

Just then.

A centaur gun shield cavalry nearby also started to twitch.

The next moment, he lifted the long spear in his hand and began to sweep it at the surrounding friendly creatures.

Meanwhile, he let out bizarre cries.

“Hahaha! You’re all going to die by me!”

Bang! Bang bang!

The holy shields on the soldiers attacked by him exploded layer by layer.

Seeing this scene,

without needing Cao Xing’s command, the soldiers around rushed up again to subdue the centaur gun shield cavalry.

However, after being controlled, the centaur continued to laugh madly.

A black aura emerged from his body again, signifying the demon had left his body.

Simultaneously, Cao Xing heard the rampant laughter of the demon.

“Hahaha!”

“Doesn’t it feel powerless, doesn’t it make you angry?”

“Oh, poor human lord! I can feel the fear in your heart burning like flames. Don’t suppress it any longer…”

“As long as you submit to me, I can let you have everything you’ve ever desired, just give up that fragile conscience…”

The increasingly chaotic scene outside awakened the inhabitants of the entire territory.

Victoria, Franciska, and even commander-level figures like Bojie Chaser all came out one by one.

Cao Xing quickly commanded, “All staff, do not come out!”

Upon hearing the command, all the staff stopped and returned to their rooms.

The demon’s methods were exceedingly strange.

The more people there were, the harder it became to find.

“Hahaha! Ignorant humans, do you think hiding in a room can avoid me?”

“I can possess any creature’s body, even your territory’s herds of cattle and flocks of chickens, they cannot escape.”

“Moreover, I can transform into the appearance of anyone. How will you find me?”

Hearing this, everyone’s face changed.

There was no denying the demon’s methods were truly bizarre.

Possession plus transformation was practically a bug-like tactic.

Cao Xing was also pondering methods to deal with this demon.
