Chapter 213: Trying to be sneaky

‘What are those creatures, the radar isn’t picking theistered, or are they part of soround and looking through a ventilation opening down into a large chamberplace, the whole area was riddled with passed out people and ures from the Abyssal Cult that he was fa his way here to find the control ite he never expected to see S inserted into people’s eye sockets Just a few seconds one of theuard’s eye and besides a little bit of blood, there didn’t see to figure out as going on After the run-in with the Abyssal Cult all those years ago he had gone through extensive research on the subject Yet there wasn’t much information about their real purpose besides the usual disappearances andcard of this cult was this double helix relic With a ical device that could knock out even people at tier 3, it was easy for the cult to go unnoticed Roland didn’t have access tohidden away by the inforuilds and other powerful existences

They were not infor cults probably to not have widespread panic Most of the second-hand information that was passed by word ofEven when sooverning lord's forces

The only thing he could do was to spend large auild that sold information Even with that, there wasn’t azes Not even corpses re out their signature symbol Without it most of the cases would not be identified and the afflicted would not even know if their loved ones had actually died

Roland had witnessed firsthand what these people were capable of That one warlock that could transforiant roup that existed in Edelgard disappeared in a day without a trace If he didn’t get out of the illusory world back then he along with his old boss would have done the sauards that could contend with the cult assassins

There was no word of any incidents like that even when trying to get inforuild Mostly there were just ru that didn’t seem to be related to each other There were doood reputation yet there was no s they were inserted into people

‘That looks like some kind of parasite? What’s its purpose… take over the host body to produce ruesome scene in front Roland came to a conclusion He had heard about various ways of controlling other's minds and perhaps this was one of theh the eye socket without har to harm the people

If they just wanted the through a lot of hassle Why would they leave the whole caravanto place these people back onto the carts later on

‘Is this so?’

While he did try to figure out what the purpose of those bugs was, this was not the time for his conteular travelers were already put through this dark ritual If he didn’t do anything all of theht become his enemies

If the parasites could actually control their hosts was a big possibility His et the control item and then free the adventurers from the illusion they were in After this was done he wanted to use their help to take out the cultists On the other hand, if all of them turned into some mindless zombies he would only back hiuys seeround, he could see some of the adventurers behind hauled over Dalrak and his sroup were sprawled out next to each other Orson had a strange s the best dream of his life Grisalde on the other hand looked to be next in line for the ritual and the Spirit Spearuys are really convinced that nothing can awaken these people… I guess I should h the temples inside he had also discovered the ite out strange mana patterns that he had stored After a quick search, he had identified an ite for

Roland considered blasting the large spire with spells and soh its defenses The double helix toas surrounded by some kind of mana shi+eld that protected it from haret through it would be immense

It would surely drain his reserves and put hio with option B While this ht have seemed like the oleetting into place

‘Here goes nothing’

…

Without further ado, the haphazardly created plan of his was triggered The two shi+ny spider drones were quick to follow the instructions that their creator gave them From within their bodies, pointy rods started to slide out They had cylindrical shapes while beco thinner at the end They were all covered with runes that at this point in ti blue

The drones lowered their center of gravity as they went low Soon the runes traveled up the rod co out of the top of their body to activate the spell effect What shot out were simple mana bolt spells and while their aiets was not off the table
