Chapter 221: Clearing the Demon Suppression Tower
Alalier looked with some confusion at this white coffin emitting a Dark Aura.
For a moment, she did not know what this object was, but when the coffin lid opened and a powerful suction force began pulling her body toward the inside frantically, she finally realized what was waiting for her.
She widened her eyes, her face full of terror, struggling desperately with her body, wanting to break free from this terrifying force; however, those few transparent threads bound her tightly, making her struggle appear futile.
"No! You can't! You cannot treat me like this!" Alalier shouted at the top of her lungs, her eyes filled with despair, "You were not sent by Malgani! Who exactly are you?"
"I am the one who is about to become your master!" Zhou Chu looked at her with a fervent expression, "Stop your pointless struggling, and obediently become my servant!"
Alalier was now a picture of despair.
The Puppetry of this human before her was simply too difficult to deal with; she decided to give up resistance.
Staying here meant being locked in this sunless Demon Suppression Tower all day anyway; it made no difference where she was locked up.
Just like that, Alalier slowly closed her eyes, and her entire being was sucked into that white coffin.
The Life Soul Artifact returned once again behind Zhou Chu.
For the God-level Puppet Soul Control Technique, Zhou Chu had only used twenty percent of its effect, which was more than enough to handle these King-level demons.
Of course, Zhou Chu's original intention was not to manipulate these demons to act according to his own will, but to incorporate them all into his army of contracted servants.
Therefore, merely using the Puppet Soul Control Technique to restrict their bodies, combined with the forced contract of the Life Soul Artifact, was already sufficient.
Next, there was still the Lava Tyrant Moloke.
If nothing unexpected happened, he should be on the next floor.
Zhou Chu's figure flashed immediately, and with a Void Shuttle, he entered the twelfth floor of the Demon Suppression Tower accurately and without error.
When Zhou Chu arrived on the twelfth floor, a fierce melee of demons was unfolding before him.
He saw the Vampire Queen, the Lord of Ghostly Poison, and the Calamity Ghost Dragon—three King-level servants—each displaying their abilities, launching a siege against a humanoid monster several meters tall, whose entire body was composed of lava.
And at this moment, the battle had already entered its final stage.
This Lava Tyrant had been completely crushed by the three King-level servants.
He simply leaned on that several-meter-long giant lava axe, kneeling on one knee on the ground, gasping for breath while staring fixedly with hateful eyes at the three King-level servants before him.
The lava flowing on his body was no longer smooth, and signs of solidification appeared in many places; clearly, he had suffered heavy damage in this melee.
"You, why have you appeared here? Why must you deal me a lethal blow!"
Lava Tyrant Moloke said through gritted teeth, every word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying endless anger and unwillingness.
But just at this moment, the three King-level servants saw Zhou Chu appear on the twelfth floor and stopped their siege of Moloke, instead bowing respectfully to their master.
Seeing this, Moloke widened his eyes in surprise, looking with incomparable shock at the Zhou Chu who had appeared inexplicably before him, and said in a low voice: "You... why do you bow and scrape to a human."
"He is our master, and you, my dear Lord Moloke, will also become one of us." The Vampire Queen Lucita curled her lips into a charming smile, her voice as melodious as a nightingale.
The long whip in her hand, transformed from the Divine Artifact Blood Mist, had already tightly bound Moloke's massive body.
Then, with a violent tug, she pulled the kneeling Moloke directly onto the ground.
Who would have thought that Moloke would struggle to crawl up from the ground, a trace of brutality appearing in his gaze as he looked at Zhou Chu before him, saying with a hint of disdain in his tone: "Let me bow my head to a human? Absolutely impossible!"
"If it weren't for the three of you interfering, even with the heavy wounds I have now, I could easily chop this human into meat paste."
Zhou Chu gave a wink to the Vampire Queen at his side, and the latter immediately understood, flicking her wrist to retract the Blood Mist that was binding Moloke.
Having shaken off the restraints, Moloke was slightly stunned, then stood up from the ground leaning on his giant axe; he saw that his three former colleagues had all obediently retreated behind Zhou Chu, even putting on a posture of watching a show.
And Zhou Chu said to the three servants behind him: "You have worked hard."
Immediately following this, he was seen reaching out and gently waving at the three servants, and the latter turned into three beams of light and returned into the Emperor Tomb.
Seeing this made Moloke's heart tremble even more.
Kings who were once high and mighty in the Abyss had actually become the summoned servants of this tiny human before him; it was simply absurd to the extreme.
Although he did not know what method was used, in the arrogant Moloke's view, it was nothing more than playing god and acting like a ghost.
Now there were only the two of them in the entire Demon Suppression Tower; it was obvious that he was courting death.
Moloke swore to crush this ignorant human before him like an ant.
Thinking of this, the demon raised the giant lava axe in his hand high, about to hack down fiercely at Zhou Chu.
Who would have thought that Zhou Chu would smile slightly, and several transparent threads immediately shot out from his body, winding around Moloke's four limbs respectively.
The next second, Moloke's eyes became vacant, and his entire soul was occupied by Zhou Chu's consciousness.
The giant axe in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and under Zhou Chu's control, Moloke's body, like a shell without a soul, frantically slammed his head against the wall.
Each impact emitted a dull and huge sound, and the entire Demon Suppression Tower shook violently along with it, as if it would collapse at any moment.
Finally, Moloke's body began to totter, and his life gradually exhausted itself in this frantic slamming.
Zhou Chu then unleashed his Life Soul Artifact to perform a forced contract on Moloke, successfully subduing this dying demon.
In just under half an hour, all the monsters in the Demon Suppression Tower had been killed or captured by Zhou Chu, completely cleared out.
At the same time, in the Military Department monitoring hall, a loud alarm sounded.
This caused Wu Guangzhou, who was patrolling the monitoring hall, to have his expression tighten.
"Report to the Chief, an anomaly has occurred in the Demon Suppression Tower!" a lieutenant-rank officer in charge of monitoring reported loudly in a hurry.
"Confirm the identity of the entrant, and pull up the real-time monitoring footage inside the Demon Suppression Tower immediately!" Wu Guangzhou issued the order rapidly, his eyes fixed tightly on the monitoring screen.
The officer operated the monitor rapidly, pulling up the real-time footage of every floor of the entire Demon Suppression Tower onto the large screen in front of him.
At the same time, according to the data on the monitor, he announced loudly: "The entrant is Zhou Chu, and his military rank is... Commander."
Immediately following this, the figure that appeared in the real-time footage located on the 12th floor of the Demon Suppression Tower was precisely Zhou Chu.
