"Ah... you ants... die..."
Melisandre, possessed by The Light King, broke free from her restraints in a fit of rage. Her face was contorted as she charged towards Marko, her body radiating white flames.
As a result of this power's eruption, Melisandre's body was rapidly aging. The gem necklace around her neck, which emitted a glow, began to crack. It seemed that The Light King was consuming her life energy.
Just then, the figure beside Marko moved even faster, directly intercepting the possessed Melisandre and pinning her in place, unable to move at all.
Following that, three different colored powers surged from Marko's body: life energy, the original power of The Light King, and a trace of unknown mysterious power.
Melisandre, enveloped by those forces, howled in pain. In a daze, her consciousness seemed to return to her body. And at this moment, she finally saw the terrifying wraiths surrounding her body.
Their appearances were both familiar and strange, as if many of them were beings that Melisandre had once sacrificed. They snarled, circling her body, cursing, and adding all the resentment and hatred onto Melisandre.
"Die with your god!..."
"You wretched whore..."
"You temple whore, I want you dead..."
Watching the vengeful spirits around her constantly cursing, Melisandre's faith began to crumble, and she became dazed, her consciousness seemingly sinking into silence.
As time passed, the energy constantly battling within her body began to be replaced by a crimson energy. Finally, amidst Melisandre's terrified screams, her body transformed into a humanoid-shaped crimson crystal.
"Marko! Who is she? Why is she so close to you?"
Mayve asked Marko, somewhat displeased. If she was somewhat annoyed by Danny, then she was disgusted by this mysterious being, a deep-seated loathing in her soul.
Seeing this, Marko pulled Mayve closer and whispered a few words to her, then looked at Melisandre, who had turned into a crystal.
Mayve fell into deep thought. In her soul, there was a part of her memory that came from the guardian angel within Marko's body. In this memory created by the system, Nymph and other different races from humans all originated from a mysterious island north of Essos Continent.
There, Marko's family ruled over all the mysterious races. They were Marko's guards, each with different beliefs and origins. They had all been teleported to Marko's side through special magic. Marko was the head of the Belleris Family, preparing to rule the world.
Marko explained to Mayve that this phantom was a being from the angel race who had been persecuted by demons. Her body was twisted and corrupted by the demons until she recently recovered. Only then did Marko unseal her.
In truth, Marko didn't know much about her background. He only knew that she possessed demon blood and belonged to the Fallen Angel race, a being in the game that had a vampiric attack skill.
But now, Marko didn't know what she would evolve into. However, now, Marko finally understood the fundamental reason for the world's chaos, and what kind of beings he would have to face in the future.
Taking advantage of this time, Marko brought up his task log again. There weren't many rewards left. It was best to collect the rewards quickly and strengthen his forces.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained 2 Universal Building Blueprints, which can directly generate system buildings."
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained treasures: Flame Rune, Four-leaf Clover, Divine Power Breastplate, Rune Armor."
Looking at the large number of treasures in his inventory, Marko directly used the teleportation effect of "Recruiting Soldiers" to send them out, so that his 4 heroes basically each had one.
During this time, Ma Sheng Dan and the others who remained on Skaggs Island and in Hardship Town had been searching for resources for Marko in the wild, while also eliminating some new system-generated troops that appeared in the territory. Similarly, their progress was also very rapid, but because Marko's current level was 15, their upper limit was suppressed by the system to level 10.
Unless Marko leveled up again, they would always be about five levels lower than him. However, their current levels were sufficient for Marko.
Attack, Logistics, and Leadership – these three public skills were their main skills. The last level 10 skill was chosen by Marko as Finance, which could increase his monthly gold resources by about 2,000.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained a magic scroll. You have learned the summoning magic 'Mysterious Crystal'."
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained 1 Rune Master, occupying one 4th and 5th level troop slot of the fortress's forces."
Rune Master
Brief Description: They are born masters of fire magic, truly unburnable, with the strongest rune magic talent, who can enable those with talent to become rune mages.
Traits: Fire Immunity, Flame Mark, Rune Master (does not consume resources when using rune magic), Rune Blessing (grants others fire magic runes), Caster (Fireball Barrage · Intermediate, Fire Wall Block · Intermediate, Deflect Missile · Intermediate)
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the blueprint for the 'Elemental Convergence Point' building. You can obtain elemental creatures that exist independently, one per month. In special environments, there is a 10% chance of splitting a second one. Each elemental creature can only split once, and newly split creatures cannot split again."
With excitement, Marko exited his task interface. This time, he had gained a lot, both in terms of money and items.
"Crack… crack…"
At this moment, the sound of crystal shattering came, followed by a rising red mist. A pair of crimson wings appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Oh my! I finally have my own body. This feeling is truly wonderful."
A charming voice, seductive to the bone, entered everyone's ears. Then, everyone felt a wave of pressure and a faint smell of sulfur in the air. The red mist dissipated, revealing a beautiful figure.
This was a Succubus with crimson wings, or rather, a being that was half angel and half demon. Although she didn't have bat wings, a pointed tail, or the hooved feet unique to demons.
However, the system still identified her race as demon, and among demons, the Succubus was the only female race.
Beneath the crimson wings, what appeared to be red and black demonic scales were actually a special, form-fitting, female "scale armor." This tight "armor" seemed like her skin, perfectly showcasing the female succubus's flawless figure.
Especially the "Y" shaped dragon horns on the succubus's exquisite forehead, which added even more charm to her captivating beauty, making her seem less intimidating.
Every movement and every word of this succubus seemed to arouse male desire. Sensing the shift in the atmosphere, Brinden quickly pulled the two Wind Dragon Guards and ran outside.
Seeing Brinden and the others leave, a playful expression, mixed with a hint of triumph, appeared on the succubus's stunning face.
Just then, Marko suddenly felt a surge of heat in front of him, and then he felt his mouth being covered by two soft lips.
That feeling, as smooth as jade, made Marko unconsciously immerse himself in it. This intoxicating sensation made Marko's mind a little hazy.
However, it only lasted a few seconds before Marko pushed away the lovely woman in his arms, his eyes filled with a strange look.
"Oh my! Dear Markol, why are you treating me like this? I so wanted to get close to you. Every time I see you and your sisters being intimate, I'm so jealous!"
The succubus's words seemed to be filled with a peculiar magic, and in just a few sentences, they stirred Marko's emotions, making him feel a bit heavy-hearted, as if he had committed a serious offense.
"Enough, you wretched Fallen Angel! You are not worthy of the name angel. Chaos and evil are truly your true nature. I shouldn't have harbored any illusions about you."
Mayve transformed into her archangel form, materializing the Judgment Sword and pointing it at the succubus, scolding her with some dissatisfaction.
"Do you think I'm afraid of you? Hehe, let me see if you're worthy of being Lord Markol's wife! I don't like having an angel sitting on my head."
The succubus also spoke with some dissatisfaction, and then a giant scythe materialized in her hand. This was the Scythe of Judgment, a weapon favored by the demons of ancient times.
"Enough, stop it!"
Seeing that the two were about to start fighting, Marko quickly stopped them. This succubus was very strong, and Mayve might not be a match for her. Marko didn't want them to get hurt.
After using a mental link to soothe Mayve, Marko asked the succubus in front of him:
"Who are you?"
"Master, I am Mu. In the common parlance of this world, I should be called Mu Belleris, wouldn't you say? I've been wanting to be your little wife for a long time."
Mu said to Marko with a touch of shyness, capable of switching between every state with ease. She seemed like a different person now, truly worthy of her succubus talent. She was, after all, a legendary creature born to bewitch all living beings.
"Hmph! A being of chaos is always a being of chaos, with no manners whatsoever. Just sticking close to Markol, and changing names before even having a wedding."
Mayve expressed her dissatisfaction upon hearing this. She had originally intended to follow Marko's wishes and not make a fuss, but she never expected this woman to become so presumptuous, even wanting to become her sister. This was more than Mayve could bear.
"I didn't ask for your opinion, little angel. As long as Sister Moonshadow, Sister Danny, and Sister Nymph agree, isn't that enough?"
As Mu spoke, she quietly slipped over to Moonshadow and the others, affectionately taking Moonshadow's small hand.
"Agree? Agree to what? Is there something you're not telling me?"
Marko asked the four women, a little strangely. He had a vague guess in his mind, but he didn't say it out loud.
"No, no, darling! How could we have anything to hide from you! You're overthinking it, it's just this little demon stirring up trouble!"
Mayve quickly explained, and in her haste, she even used a term of endearment that she usually didn't dare to use.
After Danny had secretly pulled Nymph onto Marko's bed, Mayve and Moonshadow had agreed on some protocols. One of them was that Marko could only take another wife if all three of them agreed.
This was a solution to prevent Marko from being forced into a marriage alliance by powerful forces if he were to conquer the world in the future. Mayve and the others would consider the situation and then decide who was qualified to join.
After explaining to Marko, Mayve seemed to realize that Mu could use magic like "telepathy," so she felt a hint of wariness towards her. She added a layer of protection to her own consciousness to prevent Mu from probing her secrets.
Watching Mayve's actions, Marko found it amusing. He then directly opened Mu's information, and saw her system soldier information.
Name: Mu Belleris
Race: Fallen Angel (tainted by the bloodlines of Succubus and Angel by an unknown being)
Bloodline: Bloodline of the otherworldly god Succubus Queen Yezebeth (originating from the book friend "Succubus Queen Yezebeth"'s partial setting), bloodline of the Ashan World Holy Light Dragon.
Forms: Fallen Angel Form (Level 7), Succubus Form (Level 4), Fallen Blood Dragon Form (suppressed by the world consciousness, temporarily unusable)
Description: This is a powerful hybrid with potent bloodlines, a magical creature created by a supreme being. She is the host's final guardian, and also the most powerful.
Traits: Vampiric Attack, Telepathy, Hellfire (Fallen Angel Form), Dark Immunity, Succubus Queen, Summon Succubus (summons low-level Succubi on a corpse, the number is equal to magic value/10, with inherent Polymorph and Charm spells.), Caster (Meteor Shower·Basic, Fireball·Advanced, Wall of Fire·Advanced), Sacrifice Goblin (Succubus Form), Note: In Succubus form, strength is reduced to a Level 4 troop state.
Looking at the dazzling list of skills, Marko was also full of anticipation for Mu's performance. This was a completely all-around troop.
"Mu! Can you transform into your Succubus form and show me?"
Marko asked Mu, his heart filled with curiosity about her Succubus form, wondering if it would be another state and appearance.
"Oh! My master! I didn't expect you to be into this, but can we wait until tonight? If I transform into my Succubus form, the little angels will bully me. What will I do if you don't help me then?"
Mu blinked her "watery" big eyes at Marko, acting coquettishly. Her voice was seductive, and it actually ignited a spark of desire in Marko. Marko felt strange and immediately used his magic control skill to check Mu's status.
Then, Marko discovered that a faint pink energy was emanating from around Mu's body. This energy seemed to stimulate a certain special substance in people's bodies.
After noticing Marko's probing, the energy fluctuations around Mu's body instantly dissipated. After seeing Marko's gaze, she still appeared very relaxed, without any hint of shyness from being caught.
Still with that watery-eyed, fearful expression, Marko looked at Mu in this state and shook his head helplessly. Then, he flashed and ran behind Mayve.
He embraced Mayve's waist and kissed her earlobe, then said to Mu:
"Alright, I've got her. You can transform without worry. I promise Mayve won't bully you, right! My dear!"
"Mmm...yes!"
Mayve was suddenly caught off guard, her body immediately collapsing into Marko's embrace. She could only respond with a helpless "Yes."
Then, in front of everyone, Mu began her transformation. A burst of dark red flames suddenly erupted from her feet. When the flames dissipated, an incredibly beautiful Succubus appeared before them.
Curved bat wings, a long, inverted triangle tail, "Y"-shaped dragon horns, and the unique hooved feet of a demon – despite these terrifying, scaled features,
her beautiful and captivating aura remained undeniable. The seduction in her every smile and gesture was natural and effortless. In this form, Mu had practically become the embodiment of desire.
"You... your form is really strong. Okay, that's enough. Wait... until tomorrow, then we... we can test your... your summoning skills..."
Marko stammered through the words, feeling his body filled with terrifying power, on the verge of losing control.
