Chapter 156: Black organization’s President, Puppet Master Lu Ming (1/2)

Author: M_W Cancer

In front of everyone was Viper, still standing on the same ground as before and looking at them while laughing out loudly. Nothing was wrong with that, except for the fact that the arms teacher Smith had cut off just a second ago was now slowly returning back to Viper's body by a string.

That wasn't the most shocking part of all, Viper's voice actually started changing into those of another man's voice, not just any ordinary man too. It was the man that almost every teacher of Silver Mage Academy knew about.

Black organization's President, Puppet Master Lu Ming!

Up above Viper's body, a crossed wooden plank suddenly appeared before some strings have taken shape as the string then slowly tried to connect with the other end of the string that slowly came out from the inside of Viper's body.

Finally, the strings connected, and Viper's entire body suddenly went limp.

A second later, Viper's head started moving, specifically to the left, right, up, down, in numerous times, before finally stopping while looking straight at Leo, who was already unable to make any more steps at this moment due to some strings bounding his body.

”No!” Teacher Marvin yelled out at the top of his lungs as he quickly charged straight towards Leo. One thing he knew for sure, after how many years of fighting with the Black organization, the only path waiting for a person the moment they are caught by Lu Ming's strings would only be to become his puppet. He naturally can't allow Leo, one of his students, to become a puppet of his enemy.

”Stay right there, Marvin!” Viper's head suddenly turned to face teacher Marvin as Lu Ming's voice sounded before numerous strings shoot right after towards teacher Marvin from Viper's mouth.

*Whooosh!

*Booom!

Teacher Marvin was immediately trapped towards a wall, unable to make any further movements.

”Let me go!” Teacher Marvin exclaimed as he tried his best to escape.

”And all of you too!”

*Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh!

Teacher Lee, teacher Smith, teacher Candice, and all of the other teachers have immediately trapped one by one towards the walls right after.

After doing all of that, Viper's body started walking closer and closer towards Leo.

At first, the movements were in total disarray, since Lu Ming was still trying to completely take over Viper's body, the latter's soul was obviously trying his best to resist since no one in their right minds would just simply give up the control of their very own body, right?

However, it didn't take that long for Lu Ming to finally take control of Viper's entire body, hence his movements started getting natural.

Finally, Lu Ming arrived in front of Leo.

”Kid, you shouldn't have tried to disrupt our secret operation!” Lu Ming said, ”Do you know what happens to people that tried to offend me?”

*WHOOOOOOOSH!

Suddenly, inside Leo's mind, countless of people's voice was mysteriously heard. Male, female, elders, kids, and even Magical Beast were all wailing due to pain. Soon after, his vision in front of him also started to change into a totally dark red background, and finally, he was able to clearly see for himself those wailing people and Magical Beast as they slowly tried their best to crawl towards him while puppet strings were attached to their backs.

The scene in front of him was almost the same as how hell was described in the books he had read before.

However, he didn't panic though, as he hurriedly tried to move his body backward, but he soon after realized that there was actually a wall behind him.

”Help... me!”

”Kill... me!”

”Save... me!”

”Let... me... go!”

”Please...”

Leo can't help his hairs from standing up due to the creepiness of the scene in front of him. But he still didn't panic. To be honest, he already saw a scene much more worst than this.

Back in his Master Olivia's Labyrinth, there were countless criminals imprisoned inside, the place was also almost covered in darkness to the point that it was extremely hard to see.

In that place, the actual Devil's Playground could be seen.

No matter which corner he tries to go, he will always see mutilated bodies, people killing one another, people still alive but trapped by chains embedded in the walls while being tutored, and many more wicked, twisted, despairing, and all sorts of other negative emotions could be felt inside that Dark Labyrinth.

That was the place where he was trained to become an assassin.

This scene right now, it can't even hope to compare to that!

”You actually don't feel afraid... Tell me, what makes you unique, kid?” Lu Ming can't help but ask.

”How do you describe this place?” Leo didn't answer, but instead replied with a question.

”Whatever you want to call it, you can call it that way!”

”Okay! Then I'll call this place, Devil's-Playground-wanna-be!” Leo said with a mischievous smile on his face.

”Hahahaha,” Lu Ming laughed before his eyes suddenly turned really sharp, ”How dare a mere student like you insult my Domain of Despairing Souls!”
