Chapter 192: Has David Become a Soul Slave?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
General David was conscious. He guessed that he might be controlled by some monster. After all, he couldn’t even control his own actions. Then, a sense of fear began to spread.
“Master, I am your soul slave. Am I dead?”
David was still standing in the wilderness, saying strange things to himself.
This made the subordinates beside him feel that things were very troublesome. Thus, his adjutant took out his smart device and was ready to contact the large army behind him. This was because the highest Commander of the mecha army, Oria, was more than 100 km behind them.
However, just as the adjutant took out his smart device, the ground where they were standing shook before he could activate the smart device. Then, a huge crack appeared on the ground. Countless tentacles stretched out from the crack and grabbed everyone except General David. Even the metal bodies of the ten smart mechas were wrapped around by the tentacles and could not attack.
This area instantly became a small-scale killing field. Miserable cries resounded through the empty wilderness in the dark night. Meanwhile, the smart mechas that were restrained were not attacked by the monsters.
Soon, when the area fell silent again, there were a few more human corpses on the ground. These were all David’s subordinates, but only the adjutant was David’s trusted aide. The others were sent by Commander Oria to monitor him.
Meanwhile, the ten smart mechas had been sent by the Bishop of the Holy City to protect David.
General David had absolute control over these ten smart mechas. He turned around and did not care about the remains of his followers on the ground. Instead, he simply ordered the ten smart mechas to be on standby and not resist.
After doing this, David walked to the edge of the cracked ground. There was a deep black hole below, so he could not see what kind of monster had such tentacles. However, he knew that his master, who now controlled him, had killed his subordinates.
“Master, can I see you?”
David respectfully posed this question towards the abyss. This was because he knew that below the abyss was the area where his master was active.
“My child, you can come down and see me. However, I hope that you can return to the base city.”
The voice in David’s ear sounded so warm and comforting, like the tone of a mother speaking to a child. It used a very warm word, “hope.”
His master simply hoped for David to do something. It did not force him to do anything.
However, David felt as if this had to be done. This was something he could not resist. This kind of control came from the monster’s control of David’s soul. It was different from the kind of control that the insect in his body exercised.
Just then, the monster spoke beside David’s ear once again.
“My child, there’s still a detestable insect in your body. I’ll take it out for you.”
Then, a tentacle that was exposed on the ground began to wrap around David. One of the tentacles entered his mouth. This method made David’s body twitch slightly.
Meanwhile, the parasite in his body seemed to sense danger and began to try to control David’s body to resist. This created a comical scene.
David’s consciousness was clear. He knew that he could not resist whatever the monster did to him. However, the insect in his body controlled his body and wanted to resist.
A few minutes later, David could feel the pain in his body slowly dissipating. Then, the tentacle began to withdraw from his mouth. At the end of the tentacle was an ugly-looking parasite. This parasite was white in color. If Oria were here, he would definitely go crazy from anger.
This was because he had forced David to eat this white parasite so that he could control David’s body.
When David saw that the tentacle had taken out the parasite in his body, a strange sense of joy occupied his mind. Although he had been freed from the control of the parasite, his soul had been controlled by the monster. If a comparison was to be made, the parasite was a better choice for David.
This was because the parasite could still be removed. Furthermore, the parasite only controlled his body, but could not control his consciousness and thoughts.
However, the monster that controlled his soul was different. This kind of soul control could not be removed unless his master died. Then, he would die with his master.
David smiled gratefully at the tentacle. This was also an emotion he couldn’t control. No matter what his master did to him, it would pleasure him, even if it was “joy” amidst pain.
“My master, thank you for relieving me of my pain. I am willing to do anything for you.”
After David said his thanks, he actually received an order. Of course, it was the same order as when he was asked to return to New York Base City.
“My child, I will grant you the power to command the beasts. I hope that you can lead the powerful beasts back to your base city.”
This time, David was “truly” grateful from the bottom of his heart. After all, his greatest wish was to return to New York Base City with the power that belonged to him and take back everything that once belonged to him.
…
As the highest commander of this attack on the Mechanical City, Oria had to constantly have a good grasp of the information sent by the vanguard army. Almost every five minutes, an encrypted piece of information would be sent to him.
Knock knock knock.
“Commander, the vanguard mecha team has sent an urgent message!”
Oria opened the door quickly without waiting for the person outside to enter.
Pa!
Oria snatched a folder from the man and opened it quickly. Inside the folder was a notebook made of a special kind of paper. A short message was written in the notebook.
[Commander, I am the Captain of the second mecha team. We have reached a location 10km outside the Mechanical City, but we can’t contact General David. His smart device and his subordinates have all disappeared.]
After Oria finished reading this piece of information, he quickly turned and left the command room. His destination was the area behind the command center, where a team of flying mechas was stationed.
The adjutant behind him increased his speed and surpassed his commander from the side. Before Oria arrived at the team of flying mechas, the adjutant had already informed the captain to gather the flying mechas that were waiting for orders.
“Take off immediately!”
This was the last order that Oria had given after entering an aircraft. Meanwhile, his adjutant would tell the puzzled captain about the destination of the mission that the flying mechas were assigned to.
Rumble!
The 60 flying mechas quickly began to take off.. Meanwhile, Oria, who was riding a private aircraft, had already disappeared into the dark night sky.
