Roy landed with all the grace of a sack of potatoes. It wasn't like he was trying to show off; he'd just never had any helicopter rappelling training, so he accidentally fell out of the chopper.
Luckily, his landing form was still pretty perfect, at least enough to save Roy from embarrassment.
Roy looked up at Elrêsa in the distance, and he was instantly mesmerized. Thankfully, his 46 points in Willpower kicked in and snapped him out of it.
Roy wondered if it was because he had the Domain of Desire, but he felt like his resistance to this kind of charm had gotten stronger.
Seeing Roy quickly break free from her charm, Elrêsa parted her red lips slightly, and a voice as beautiful as a nightingale came out.
"Are you a follower of Belial? I've finally found you!"
Roy: ???
So this is why this person came here? For me?
Could the King of Greed have sent someone to get revenge on me?
And they specifically mentioned being a follower of Belial!
"Who are you?"
"Heh! I am the daughter of Asmodeus, the King of Lust. I'm here on my mother's orders to avenge my sister, Adela. Are you ready to die?"
The daughter of the King of Lust? Then she must be a succubus.
Roy hadn't expected that Adela was the daughter of the King of Lust.
Could Adela becoming a cyber-succubus also have been a plot by the King of Lust?
This is a mess!
Just little old Los Angeles, and it's already become a gathering place for the forces of Mammon, Beelzebub, and Asmodeus.
If you add Roy, this follower of Belial, into the mix, it's a four-way free-for-all!
Feeling a bit speechless, he figured he should quickly find a way to deal with this female succubus in front of him to prevent things from getting even more chaotic.
After thinking it through, Roy crooked his finger at Elrêsa, beckoning her.
"If you want to kill me, then come and get me! Catch me, and I'll let you... you know!"
With that, Roy turned around and started running.
Even though he knew Gerald had cut the live feed and he was wearing a mask, there were still too many onlookers around. Roy didn't want to reveal his abilities, so he decided to find a suitable battlefield to fight Elrêsa.
So, where would be a good place for a fight?
Elrêsa watched Roy's retreating figure and frowned slightly. Then she controlled the mummified corpses to chase after him. Being a spellcasting type of demon, there was no way she'd charge in herself.
But the speed of the mummified corpses was nowhere near Roy's. Luckily, Roy was intentionally trying to lure Elrêsa to chase him, so he wasn't going too fast.
However, the eastern district of Los Angeles was mostly low-rise buildings, not exactly a great place for a fight.
After running for a while, Roy finally spotted a subway station entrance, so he immediately notified Gerald through his earpiece.
"Mr. Olin, I'm going to fight that woman inside the subway. Can you evacuate the station right away?"
Gerald replied to Roy.
"Yes, but it'll take some time!"
"Alright, I'll take care of these mummies first!"
Roy stopped running and turned around to face the mummified corpses chasing him.
He thought about just pulling out his chainsaw sword, but then that TV station helicopter flew right over Roy's head again.
And because Elrêsa was relatively far away, the helicopter pilot had even lowered their altitude, wanting to get a clearer shot with the camera.
At this rate, Roy's hairstyle was going to get messed up by the helicopter rotor.
Roy looked up and glared at the female news anchor in the helicopter. Suddenly, he realized she looked really familiar.
Wait a minute, isn't that Charlize Theron?
Charlize Theron playing a TV news anchor?
What movie is this from?
There was no time to think about it. The fastest of the mummified corpses were already about to reach Roy, so he had to pull out his cursed dual daggers first.
At least carrying a pair of daggers on him was more normal than carrying a chainsaw sword.
"Look at this, folks! The gentleman who jumped from 1000 feet in the air without a scratch has already started fighting the mummies! Good heavens, he's fast!"
Marianne Megan was really dedicated to her job, still diligently reporting even at a time like this.
But at this moment, Marianne heard a message from her boss in her earpiece.
"Producer, what did you say? The live feed has been cut for half an hour? Why are you only telling me now?"
Marianne was furious. So, she'd been talking for half an hour, practically talking herself hoarse, and none of it had been broadcast.
"The station was negotiating with the government earlier, hoping to resume broadcasting, but unfortunately, they failed. You need to evacuate immediately!"
Hearing the producer tell her to evacuate, Marianne was really unwilling. She'd finally landed such a huge story, and it had been cut off.
She looked up at the other TV station helicopters around them. Sure enough, they had all already left, so they must have received the message.
Now, besides the helicopter Marianne was in, all the other helicopters around were from FEAR.
"Producer, I've followed this story all the way here. Why not let me see it through to the end? Even if we can't broadcast it live, being able to record the whole thing would be great!"
The producer in her earpiece sounded really helpless.
"Recording it won't do any good. The feds will just confiscate all the footage afterwards anyway."
"No, I have to record this footage!"
With that, Marianne just ripped off her earpiece, no longer listening to the producer, and then ordered the cameraman and the helicopter pilot next to her.
"Mike, Little Fu, keep filming! Don't worry about the producer!"
By this time, Roy's fight had been going on for a while. Even though the cursed dual daggers in his hands weren't really suited for fighting groups, he had still taken down a lot of the mummified corpses.
But Elrêsa had created hundreds of mummified corpses, and Roy had only taken out a small fraction of them.
There was no other way. Roy had to pull out his Remington M870 to speed up clearing out these monsters.
This method worked pretty well. Because the mummified corpses had lost a lot of body fluid, their weight had dropped significantly, making them very vulnerable to kinetic damage.
With the shotgun, it was pretty much one shot, one kill. Sometimes, if he was lucky, he could even take down two with a single shot.
But after firing a few shots, Roy suddenly felt the world around him start to twist and distort. Strange colors filled his eyes, carrying a strong mental corruption.
He could also hear a sweet, seductive, breathy voice in his ear.
"Darling, come to me~"
Roy knew it was the daughter of the Queen of Lust making a move, but he looked around and couldn't find the woman.
Was she invisible, or was she casting from a distance?
Just as Roy was about to activate his Eye of Truth to see through all this, the TV station helicopter above him started spiraling downwards towards the ground like it had one too many drinks.
Turns out, the ability Elrêsa had just unleashed was an area-of-effect charm, so the TV station helicopter pilot, Mike, had also gotten hit because they were flying too low.
This sudden situation startled Roy. He didn't even have time to activate his Eye of Truth and just threw himself to the ground.
Then, the helicopter crashed diagonally right over Roy's head, tearing through the slower-reacting mummified corpses around him, turning them into pieces.
Luckily, these mummified corpses didn't have any moisture left in them, otherwise the scene would have been incredibly bloody, and Roy would have been covered in it.
Man!
But the crash did have some benefits. At least the helicopter caused Elrêsa to interrupt her magic, and Roy's vision returned to normal.
Marianne struggled to climb out of the helicopter. That news anchor was still conscious!
Unlike the black cameraman and the white helicopter pilot, who had both hit their heads badly and passed out.
"Help... me..."
Marianne reached out her hand to Roy, asking for help.
Roy didn't hesitate. He immediately rushed over to the helicopter, picked up Marianne, and then tucked the cameraman and the helicopter pilot under his arms.
"Hold onto my neck!"
Marianne barely managed to hold onto Roy's neck, which kept her from slipping down.
It was also at this moment that Gerald's voice came through the earpiece.
"The subway station has been evacuated. You can go in!"
"Got it!"
Roy, carrying the three people, continued to run like the wind towards the subway station entrance in the distance.
He hadn't run more than a few steps when the crashed helicopter behind them exploded, killing all the remaining mummified corpses that weren't quite dead yet.
After the explosion, a figure suddenly appeared next to the blast site. It was Elrêsa.
Elrêsa looked a bit upset. All the puppets she had created had been wiped out by a fluke, so she was naturally not in a good mood.
But Elrêsa quickly composed herself, turned invisible again, and followed Roy into the subway station.
"Cough, cough, cough! Sir, I feel like I'm going to throw up!"
Probably because she had just been in a helicopter crash and then carried on Roy's shoulder for a while, Marianne felt extremely nauseous, with an urge to... well, you know.
"You hold it in! If you dare throw up on me, I'll drop you right here!"
Marianne quickly covered her mouth, desperately trying to suppress the churning feeling in her stomach.
The subway was completely empty. Roy found an office, kicked down the door, and then tossed Marianne and the others inside.
"Stay in there and don't come out!"
Marianne suddenly became nervous.
"Sir, are you going to abandon me?"
"I still have to fight that woman. I can't take you with me! Just hide here, and I'll draw her away!"
With that, Roy closed the office door and then turned around, activating his Eye of Truth.
Roy didn't notice that after he left, Marianne also breathed a sigh of relief, then pulled out a videotape from her clothes and hid it in a corner of the office.
His dark golden pupils scanned the empty subway station, but he didn't see Elrêsa.
"Didn't she follow me? Or maybe..."
Just as he was wondering, that sweet, seductive, high-pitched voice echoed in Roy's ear again.
"Darling, are you looking for me?"
The voice was distant and echoing, making it impossible for Roy to pinpoint her location.
But Roy was sure the woman was nearby, he just couldn't see her.
The Eye of Truth could indeed see through illusions, but it couldn't see through walls.
If Elrêsa was hiding behind a wall right now, Roy wouldn't be able to see her.
After activating the Eye of Truth, Elrêsa's influence on Roy's vision seemed to have disappeared, but he still felt a bit dizzy.
"Daughter of Asmodeus, why are you afraid to show yourself and face me?"
Roy took a few steps forward, searching everywhere for Elrêsa's location.
Succubi are usually skilled in mental magic, but they're relatively weak in close combat. If Roy could just find Elrêsa's real body, he could easily take her down.
"I'm right here. Come find me~"
"Didn't we just agree? If you found me, I'd let you... you know!"
"Do you really mean it?"
Elrêsa's voice revealed a hint of surprise, like a girlfriend receiving a gift from her boyfriend.
"Of course I'm serious. Show yourself now, and I'll let you... you know, right away!"
Suddenly, Elrêsa's voice appeared right behind Roy. Just as Roy was about to turn around, she placed her hand on his back.
"Alright, I'll let you... you know, right now!"
In an instant, Roy realized everything around him had changed. It was no longer the empty subway station, but a magnificent, golden palace.
Unlike Adela's mental palace, this palace was even larger and brighter, and he could clearly see all sorts of gorgeous decorations inside.
Roy looked around at the situation in surprise. His Eye of Truth hadn't deactivated, which meant all of this wasn't an illusion.
So the question was, if it wasn't an illusion, then where was he?
"Darling, enjoy this endless bliss!"
Elrêsa's voice came from all directions, making Roy feel like he was completely surrounded.
Just as he was wondering, countless beautiful, naked women with perfect figures emerged from the floor and pounced on Roy.
Roy, a righteous gentleman who wouldn't be swayed by beauty (in his own opinion), naturally didn't want these women to ruin his reputation for chastity. But just as he was about to fight back, he realized his physical abilities felt like they had returned to that of an ordinary person.
How is this possible?
Having lost his superhuman physical attributes, Roy was instantly tackled to the ground by the group of women, and then came the inhumane... you know.
Weak, pitiful, helpless!
That's exactly how Roy felt right now, being frantically used like a rocking horse by a group of women as beautiful as movie stars.
But hey, the daughter of Asmodeus's way of getting revenge actually lets her enemies have a good time before they die. How nice of her!
But soon, Roy felt that something was wrong. He could feel something being sucked away by Elrêsa.
If he didn't do something, Roy might end up like those mummified corpses!
Domain of Fear, activate!
Fortunately, while Roy's physical attributes seemed to have disappeared, his mental attributes were still normal, so the Domain of Fear successfully activated.
The magnificent golden palace seemed to violently shake at this moment, and then Roy heard Elrêsa's scream.
Whoa! Could this be Elrêsa's world of consciousness?
Having thought of this possibility, Roy quickly struggled to free himself from the women entangling him.
Luckily, these women were also affected by the Domain of Fear. One by one, their eyes rolled back and they lost control, so Roy managed to crawl out.
That was too close! In just a few minutes, Roy had almost lost his virginity several times.
But the Domain of Fear wouldn't be able to control Elrêsa for long. She was clearly different from ordinary demons and had a very high level of skill in magic. He figured she'd break free from the Domain of Fear's influence soon.
He had to escape this world of consciousness right now!
