Chapter 349: Chapter 297: Gather All the Oppressed People!
"Submit or become a slave!"
Lin Ke’s voice was extremely cold.
"No!" Lady Yongge instinctively looked up, her face even paler.
After hesitating for a second, she seemed to make a decision and shook her magic staff.
Her magic staff tilted to the left three times, and then her whole body seemed drained of strength, collapsing on the ground.
"Lady Yongge..."
"We... we... alas..."
"Such humiliation..."
The people behind Lady Yongge had complex expressions.
Lin Ke’s face was emotionless.
The gesture of tilting to the left three times was equivalent to kneeling in the past.
Lin Ke discovered this gesture later on.
Previously, when boarding the Red Sack Bird, a staff member performed this gesture for Lin Ke, who learned it and mimicked it, startling the staff.
They kneel to you, showing respect for your status as a mage.
And yet, you kneeled back as a return gesture?
Thus, Lady Yongge was actually kneeling in submission to Lin Ke.
After all these years together, those mages behind Lady Yongge watched her submit and felt drained of their spiritual power as well.
Lin Ke turned towards them again and said, "I’m talking about all of you; if you don’t submit, then you’ll become slaves."
All of them?!
"What, wasn’t it you who attacked me just now?" Lin Ke raised an eyebrow: "Or do you wish to die? Wishful thinking, I’ll imprison your bodies, make them into puppets, turning you into someone else’s slaves."
What were these old mages thinking?
They attacked him randomly and wanted to live, just simply walk away?
What were they thinking?
As Lin Ke spoke out, everyone stood frozen.
Was Flame Demon aiming for the entire Song of the Torrent sect?
It’s known that the Song of the Torrent sect wasn’t exclusively Lady Yongge’s; she was merely the most talented of this generation.
"Why..." An elderly mage spoke defiantly, appearing to be a person of high prestige, standing behind Lady Yongge.
But before he finished speaking, his body was reduced to nothing in a blaze of fire.
"Who else? Next won’t be just death; I’ll make them into puppets." Lin Ke chuckled, arms crossed, looking at the crowd: "Anyone want to test my techniques?"
He wouldn’t actually make puppets.
But he could use Naseng’s magic!
In terms of magic, some high-powered spells had long been replaced.
Today’s spells are practical and delicate, made into skills.
Like the skill he used before—Banshee Enchantment—very useful.
"You devil, daring to make us..." A young mage pointed fiercely at Lin Ke, wanting to loudly accuse him.
"Oh, truly someone unafraid of death." Lin Ke narrowed his eyes, his pupils glinting with a ghostly light.
Banshee Enchantment!
Instantly, his powerful spiritual power fiercely surged into the young man’s mind, etching a mark onto his soul.
The young man hadn’t finished talking, and his face turned dumb, mouth agape for two seconds before he returned to normal as drool was about to drip.
This time he didn’t speak, but stepped through Lady Yongge and approached Lin Ke.
"What are you doing! Come back!"
A middle-aged authoritative mage’s face darkened, trying to retain the young man, who seemed to be his disciple.
"Very well, choose to come to the Flame Demon Sect, good, go ahead, child." Lin Ke gently touched the young man’s staff with his own, symbolizing goodwill and friendliness.
Then the young man walked coldly towards the members of the Flame Demon Sect.
The people of the Flame Demon Sect were shocked beyond words.
What kind of magic was this?
"Lord Flame Demon, I want to learn!" Amidst everyone’s envy of this magic, a mad woman was the first to speak, her eyes gleaming.
"No problem." Lin Ke replied softly, "Those who don’t betray should be rewarded."
On the side of the Song of the Torrent sect, the mages who usually stood proud felt a chill.
Directly controlling people’s minds... Faser actually had such terrifying and evil magic?!
Lin Ke understood why this was happening now.
It was not just Naseng’s history and Andrew’s reasons but also the Faser Gods’ "foolish policy."
Soul, that’s the domain of gods!
This was a rule the Faser people knew from childhood, resulting in little research and exploration in this domain by Faser.
Unlike Naseng, where souls were explored almost thoroughly during the Mythical Era, which is why Andrew could formulate the practitioner system on the shoulders of giants.
"I am willing to submit..."
"I will become your subordinate."
"I surrender."
Behind Lady Yongge, each mage lowered their stance, beginning to shake their staffs in salute.
First comes one, and then another.
With Lady Yongge’s submission, they all followed suit.
"Good, I believe you all will feel thankful for today’s decision in the future." Lin Ke smiled slightly: "Let’s go! Everyone come with me; once in the Flame Demon Sect, we’re all family!"
Lin Ke enthusiastically stepped forward, using his staff to touch one by one.
Touching staffs, similar to an embrace.
The crowd was somewhat unaccustomed to Lin Ke’s actions, but since they’ve already "knelt," how about an "embrace"?
Each mage, old, middle-aged, and young, with expressions ranging from bitter to helplessness, touched staffs with Lin Ke. An outsider might think they were forced.
After a while, everyone completed this simple initiation ceremony.
Looking at the hundreds of people before him, Lin Ke felt it wasn’t enough internally, but his face revealed a hint of excitement.
"Companions, Faser people." Lin Ke stood at the gate of the Flame Demon Sect, his voice loud.
It was exactly the moment when everyone was emotionally shaken, whether from the original Flame Demon Sect or the original Song of the Torrent sect, they were all filled by Lin Ke.
Lin Ke intended at this time to sow some seeds among everyone.
Moreover, it wasn’t just them; witnesses increased now.
There were ordinary people, wild mages, and members from other schools and sects probing for information.
"We Faser are facing the greatest crisis in history, for those extraterritorial visitors have arrived!" Lin Ke paused, allowing everyone time to react.
A surprise swept across the crowd, especially Lady Yongge and others.
Wasn’t this the time to talk about what the sect should do in the future? Why mention those extraterritorial visitors?
"But, it’s also our greatest opportunity!" Lin Ke squinted his eyes, his voice growing louder: "They’re so powerful that even the gods can’t punish them, powerful that even those lofty gods are helpless!"
With these words, the color changed in everyone’s face.
