Soul Enslavement, Siege Plan

Anthony suddenly remembered the dark legend.

Legend had it that there were some magical spells circulating among the demonic creatures.

These spells were very dark and had unexpected effects.

Especially those that could manipulate life and death.

That could make a person a puppet, under the mercy of the caster.

Although Anthony now bowed his head to Lucian in humiliation.

But there was a final streak of stubbornness in him.

He was not a man resigned to failure.

And once he was back in Kaidi City, he would have a way to escape Lucian's control.

As long as he became the City Lord, all the secrets he had mentioned previously naturally posed no threat to him.

But now Lucian was saying he was going to try to control him.

As much as it scared Anthony, it also made him feel desperate.

So he tried, "Um… Master, I, Anthony, swear on the honour of a Knight that I am loyal to you! If I do anything to betray you, I will definitely be sent to hell!"

"So please trust me. I won't let you down!"

Lucian eyed him coldly.

"I give you two choices," he said. "Accept my enslavement spell on you or… die!"

Anthony looked up instantly. When he saw the blade-like coldness in Lucian's eyes.

His heart gave a sharp jerk.

"I… I accept your enslavement!"

In the face of death, Anthony chose to compromise.

So the next moment, Lucian cast the Soul Enslavement spell over Anthony.

"Open your mind and do not resist me! Any hint of resistance in your heart will cause the spell to fail!"

"And when it fails, you will die a horrible death!"

Anthony shuddered again.

He nodded fearfully.

Then, Lucian imprinted the mark.

The mark burrowed from Anthony's forehead into his body.

As the mark entered Anthony's body, Lucian felt a very mysterious connection form between him and Anthony.

He felt that if he thought about it, the knight in front of him would die instantly.

Of course, Anthony had the same thought.

Except that he felt the opposite.

His feeling was that as long as he felt the slightest bit of resistance towards this Birdman in front of him,

He would immediately explode.

Once that was done, Lucian set Anthony back down.

Of course, his two men had already been executed by the Cat-Eared tribe.

With these two guys around, they would definitely talk about everything that happened here.

If Anthony had been captured, why had he been able to return to Kaidi City in one piece?

Therefore, in order to eliminate these uncertain factors, killing them was the best way.

As for whether Anthony would arouse suspicion if he went back alone.

That was something Anthony had to consider.

And Lucian was sure, given Anthony's intelligence, that wouldn't trouble him at all.

At this moment, Lucian and the Cat-Eared tribe's leader were sitting in the main hall.

The leader took Lucian's hand excitedly.

"My respected friend, thankful for you, you're here to prevent a disaster for our tribe! I thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you don't mind, the Cat-Eared tribe is willing to worship you as our Holy Master! Just like the Lizard People!"

Lucian gave a long look.

He would not refuse the request.

Now was the time for him to accumulate strength. The Cat-Eared tribe was much stronger than the Lizard People.

Lucian smiled. "I can't find any reason to turn you down. The Cat-Eared tribe is very welcome to join me!"

… .

A few days later, the Cat-Eared tribe announced to the south of the entire Demonic Forest.

They decided to submit to Lucian and honor him as their Holy Master.

When the southern tribes heard this news, they immediately exploded.

"Did I hear you right, damn it! The Cat-Eared tribe actually acknowledged that Birdman as their Holy Master! What's going on? That despicable Birdman race must have used some shameful method! We must save the Cat-Eared tribe!"

"The Cat-Eared tribe is our most trustworthy friend. He doesn't favor any race and is completely neutral! If they all choose to take a stand, I really don't know who I can trust in this Demonic Forest in the future! I must go and see what's going on!"

"I know that Birdman. First, he used some method to subdue the Lizard People. Now, he actually extended his claws to the Cat-Eared tribe!"

…

Therefore, all the races in the south of the Demonic Forest, except for the Goblins, rushed to the gathering place of the Cat-Eared.

When they arrived, they were surprised to find that the leader of the Cat-Eared tribe had already led his clansmen to welcome them at the entrance.

When those people saw the leader, they immediately went forward to ask with concern.

After the leader told them the cause and effect,

Each of these races was shocked and looked ashamed.

Then, the leader led them all to meet Lucian.

Lucian smiled at the sight.

Then he quietly activated the Voice of Angels and gave them another speech.

The speech was no different from what he had said in the simulation.

Only this speech was infinitely more effective than before.

With the Cat-Eared being the bridge, the other races finally threw themselves into his arms without hesitation.

All the races held Lucian in high esteem.

After confirming their relationship, Lucian told them the news that the demonic creatures captured by the Human hunters were being held in the dungeon.

The demonic creatures who heard this news were immediately furious.

They all clamored to rescue their companions.

"Everyone, please calm down. The Kaidi City is the border city of the Human Holy Empire. As everyone knows, the defense of the border city is very strong, and there are Knights and countless Humans."

"If we go in rashly, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties! Therefore, we still need to formulate a perfect plan!"

The creatures asked Lucian questions one after another, a look of trust on their faces.

Lucian thought for a moment, then slowly rose from his seat.

Then he said solemnly, "If we want to save our companions, we have to enter the city!"

"I've already planted a pawn in the city. As long as we're supposed to be working on the outside, there's a good chance we can rescue them!"

"And what we have to do next is consolidate all our forces and attack!"
