As the red magic circle glowed in an eerie manner, the ground around us was covered by hundreds of the sa magic circles, but smaller.
"Be careful, everyone!"
Ying Yue shouted as the sa magic circle also appeared inside the barrier. The girls quickly moved to a space that was farthest from any magic circles and prepared to attack at any mont.
"Leave this to ."
Goddess Blanc quickly moved and created a barrier around the magic circles, isolating them from our space. A mont later, a bright flash of light erged around each magic circle as a figure appeared on top of them.
"Sh*t! This is bad!"
I shouted in chagrin as I realized what the figures were.
They were all the female tars who got the Succubus Lord's bloodline. What's more, of the tens of tars that appeared from the magic circle inside the barrier, a few of them had familiar faces.
"There are even tars from the Seii family!"
I looked over at the two goddesses, but they just frowned at the scene. All the tars had red eyes, as if they were in a berserk state. They should be more powerful than before, which is a pain to deal with given that there are even 8th-stage tars among them.
"Will..."
At that instant, soone tapped my shoulder. I quickly turned around, ready to fight back, only to notice it was God Zeshion with an ashen face.
"Will, I know this isn't fair, as I told you to not use it willy-nilly, but I want you to place every tar under the Succubus Lord's control into a Servant Contract."
I tilted my head at his words.
"Can't you just enclose them in a barrier, like what Goddess Blanc is doing?"
There's no need to contract them if they can't affect the battle anyway. However, to my words, God Zeshion shook his head.
"Look behind you."
"?"
As I turned around, I quickly noticed that Ember and the others were already fighting a fierce battle against the controlled tars.
"What?! How did they break the barrier?"
As I was turning my head at rapid speeds, trying to understand the scene, God Zeshion patted my shoulder three tis.
"They're similar to Ying Yue here, possessing immunity to control skills. They also can't get forcefully teleported, even by Zeta."
"..."
As soone who experienced how hard it was to restrain soone with control skill immunity, I can't help but frown. Just with a quick count, there seem to be thousands of tars under the Succubus Lord's control. If we want to restrain all of them, then we'd need at least twice that number.
"Can't we call for backup?"
I asked just in case, but Zeshion shook his head at this.
"I asked Zeta to request backup from the country, but it looks like they can't send any help. Mysterious bats appeared all over and needed the hand of the army to handle them."I think you should take a look at
I recalled how I sent Fang, Igni, Wan Li, and Wan Er, together with their tad beasts, to clear the bats that appeared near the town. Although each bat should be at the 4th stage in terms of power, they would be about as strong as a 6th stage when they are in a swarm.
With no hope for backup, we can't subdue them all at once. I sighed.
"... Alright. I'll do it."
Zeshion smiled as if expecting to do it. He then slapped his cheeks, trying to bring his morale up.
"Alright, then I'll go around and capture the tars one at a ti. You focus on contracting them. If you can touch them directly, even their immunity shouldn't work."
As Zeshion said this, he quickly caught the nearest tar in a stranglehold before moving back in front of . Only the strong gust of wind caused by his rapid movent was left as proof of what he did.
"First one!"
As he said, I quickly touched her head, which was held firmly in place, and initiated the Servant Contract. Although I did feel a slight resistance, it quickly passed as the tar released a blinding light, signifying a successful contract.
Before the light even faded, God Zeshion was already holding another tar who was trying to struggle out of his firm hold. I ignored the still-shining tar and did the Servant Contract once more.
Before I completed the second one, Goddess Veril and God Ajax appeared beside Zeshion.
"The demon tars escaped!"
Veril shouted in chagrin.
Based on her story, when they were already about to kill them, Noir interrupted and managed to pull his subordinates out of trouble. As the two were about to chase, the tars under the control of the Succubus Lord appeared, making it hard for them to move.
As I was about to finish the eighth contract, Goddess Blanc was already explaining the situation to the disoriented tars who finished first.
"Then help gather the tars like this."
Zeshion muttered as he gestured to the tar held in a choke hold between his thick arms.
"You can't teleport when in contact with them, so just run."
He added.
The two looked around, counting the number of succubus tars that were rushing to their position. Zeta was busy sending them flying away without inflicting much damage. She was pinpoint teleporting human-sized rocks from sowhere to the stratosphere, letting them gain speed as they fell down, before teleporting them right below the tar's solar plexus going upward.
The tars that got hit would be sent flying a good few hundred ters away, earning the others ti to manage the rest of the incoming waves easily.
The only ones busy fighting were Ying Yue, Ember, and Fina. After all, they were the only ones who could "fight" without inflicting much damage on the enemies.
As we were busy handling the thousands of tars that were rushing in, a bloody red claw attack was sent falling towards our location. Zeta quickly moved to teleport it away. However, as her attention was turned away for a mont, thousands more managed to enter our range.
"Blue, I need help!"
Goddess Zeta shouted as she gritted her teeth, but Zeshion just chuckled.
"I'm out of energy! But I know you can handle this, so good luck!"
