Under the prosperity of the empire, there is a darkness that ordinary people cannot see, and in this darkness, evil continues to breed. Evil pursues blood. Only death can bring joy to evil.
"Kill, die, and give a pleasing performance."
…
The followers of the Demon King Cult around were not afraid of death. Although they were constantly being killed, they were still used like a tide. Some adventurers and professionals were already stained red with blood, and they were even more out of breath during the battle.
It would be tiring to kill so many pigs, let alone people.
As time went by, some people finally realized that something was wrong. Among these Demon King believers, they saw people they were familiar with - the owner of the bar they frequented, the owner of the weapon shop they frequented, The widow next door...and even their relatives and friends among them!
"No!!!"
"Stop! Wake up!"
"Don't kill!"
"Shut up, are you asking us to wait for them to kill us?"
Some people stopped, and others were still killing in order to protect themselves. However, most of the hands became hesitant, and the weapons were not as sharp as before.
"What is going on? Why are the residents of Mundra attacking us?"
"Why, why is all this?!"
The leaders of several major forces asked each other, and then looked at each other, but they knew that they could not hesitate now.
"Ignore those people and break out with all your strength!"
Della and the others didn't know what to do for a while, and their previous murderous intentions quickly subsided. Facing the Demon King's Cult followers who were constantly attacking from all around, they once again had no desire to attack, but could only keep dodging.
"My sword is stained with the blood of innocent people?" Flavo looked at the bloody staff in his hand, his expression was stunned, as if he had received a huge blow, and his consciousness began to become confused.
Flavor is not afraid of killing, she is afraid of killing innocent people.
Snapped!
Georgia slapped Flavor directly, knocking Flavor awake.
Although Georgia is also very scared and usually has a soft-tempered look, she is more rational at this time.
"Be clear-headed. We must first solve the problems we encounter. After everything is dealt with, it is not too late to consider other things."
"There must be a priest from the Demon King Sect behind this. Let's go find that priest now and kill him!" Angelina gritted her teeth and said, and she, who had always been steady, became angry.
Melkat flapped his wings, "The smell of blood is really pungent." At the same time, Melkat's eyes also showed blood, as if in response to Angelina's anger, it flew into the sky, became huge, and quickly searched for The hidden Demon King cult priest.
Lafite did not speak, but was a little distracted because she kept paying attention to Olinson who was participating in the siege of the Chaos Dragon.
Perhaps only Adolf and Olinson, who were besieging the Chaos Dragon, did not notice the strange atmosphere around them.
Della also kept thinking about how to deal with the situation at this time. At the same time, she also tried to use her magic to wake up these Demon King followers, but it did not have much effect. At most, it could only be simple comfort.
"Daju..." Della looked helplessly to Bailiyuan for help.
In fact, without Della asking for help, Bailiyuan had already been thinking about how to save these Demon King Cult believers, and during this time, he finally understood the situation of these believers.
But he was also a little helpless and realized that for the time being, he could only choose to deal with these people violently.
Baili Yuan has seen many methods of controlling people, but it is still control. The method by which these Demon King Cult believers are controlled is fundamentally different from the method by which Wu Gengyue and Future were controlled.
If this group of people were controlled by special mysterious means, Bailiyuan might be able to help this group of people remove the control. But in fact, this group of people was not forcibly controlled, but brainwashed. It is still similar to the scientific side, which distorts these people's outlook on life and world view, and even completely shatters their outlook on life and world view.
Even if these people can survive today, if no one is controlling them behind the scenes in the future, they will just be living "dolls".
This method was extremely cruel and evil, and Baili Yuan's breathing became faster.
Because this method is beyond the scope of what he can handle now, even if the main body comes, he can't do anything with the power of his heart.
Unless a miracle happens.
However, this time Bailiyuan knew that he could not bring about a miracle, and he had no means that could bring about a miracle.
The most important thing is that Bailiyuan does not have the time or conditions to check and treat these people.
"It's really a big deal. Brainwashing is not a simple matter. There should be no equipment specifically used for brainwashing and memory modification in this world. Could it be said that these people were brainwashed one by one by the Demon King's Cult? How is this possible? Maybe, the Demon King's Cult has More special means." Bailiyuan sighed in his heart.
The Demon King's Cult is more dangerous than he imagined.
The dangerous aspect is not the strength of the strong, but the manipulation of ordinary people.
If humans in this world have no other means, then there is only one way to deal with this group of crazy believers, which is complete extermination!
Bailiyuan's eyes lit up, "I'm sorry, I don't have any good means. I can only use force on you, but it's better than letting you lose your life. At least you can still have a future and hope."
boom--
Powerful mental power erupted from Baili Yuan's body, causing everyone in the battlefield to tremble, as if the pause button had been pressed and paused, even the Chaos Dragon!
The Chaos Dragon's mental resistance was not weak either, but it felt an even more terrifying mental power envelope it, causing a look of fear to appear in its eyes.
"Daju?" Della and others looked at Bailiyuan.
Baili Yuan's body floated up, and at the same time, his spiritual power forced his way into the minds of the followers of the Demon King Sect, imprinting their spiritual imprint on these believers.
From the moment the spiritual brand appears, these people belong to Bailiyuan.
The most common application of this kind of spiritual branding is actually the slave branding, but Bailiyuan is not that violent after all, but chose another application.
"Become my dependent!"
Since these people have become puppets played by the Demon King's Cult, Bailiyuan will snatch these people away and bring them to his subordinates for protection!
Just like the Chaos Dragon can transform other monsters and then turn these monsters into its own dependents, Baili Yuan is doing the same thing.
If it were against enemies, Bailiyuan wouldn't mind using these methods, but for these poor believers, Bailiyuan still felt a little pity and sigh in his heart.
As the spiritual brands were driven into the minds of these believers one by one, a cat-head brand appeared on the foreheads of these believers.
The only tenderness Bailiyuan can bring to these believers is to give them a cute mark.
At the same time, the shadow of the moon quietly appeared in the sky.
Silent and silent.
