A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.

Chapter 322 Lord Ince is the new King General
"No, no!" Herzog roughly ran his hands through his messy hair, yelling at the vocal cords in front of him, "You can't do this, you fucking can't do this!"

"Damn it, another one, another Bondarev trying to steal my work! Damn it, damn it!"

Stealing the power of the White King to become a god has been the only spiritual pillar supporting Herzog's actions for more than twenty years. With the plan, which he has worked hard for twenty years, about to succeed and the fruits of godhood about to fall, he is ready to make his move.

But at such a crucial moment, Ince appeared, wanting to take the credit for him. How could Herzog agree to that?

In Herzog's opinion, Ins was far more despicable than Bondarev.

Twenty years ago, Bondarev had at least betrayed the plan before it even began. Back then, it was all just talk, and no actual action had been taken!
Twenty years later, Herzog had painstakingly arranged everything and was all ready except for the position of the White King. But Ince wanted to take over everything.
This is even more disgusting than Bondarev!
Herzog, who was not present, was very anxious, but Genji, who was present, was even more anxious!
For a thousand years, the Snake Clan has been trying to break free from the shackles of their destiny, and for many years they have been relentlessly trying to find the 'god'—the White King—the source of their family bloodline.

Finally, the White King was completely killed.

The Snake-Headed Eight Families do not covet the power of the White King; they simply hate the White King for bringing them generation after generation of demons.

With Ince in front of the camera and Herzog behind the scenes, both are after the White King. How could Genjiro let them have their way?
Genji gripped the Spider Cutter tightly, his bones closing silently. In order to kill in one strike and give Ince no time to react, his royal blood surged within him, quietly activating his Dragon Bone state.

In the blink of an eye, Genji had already covered a distance of more than thirty meters and slashed at Ince's head with his sword!
However, just as the Spider Cutter was about to strike Ince, Ince tapped his teeth, and Genji suddenly stopped, standing frozen in front of Ince with a look of surprise on his face.

The transition from extreme motion to extreme stillness is abrupt and without any transition.

A heavy feeling, a particularly familiar heaviness, was being inflicted upon him!
This is... the power of words, the authority of royalty?!

Is Ince's Word of Power, like his own royal power?
Xu Lie smiled as he looked at Yuan Zhisheng, noticing that Aso Makoto had already taken out a paper figure, so he quickly reached out and pinched Yuan Zhisheng's head.

How is this possible! Genji's pupils widened instantly. Why was Ince still able to move when he released the Word of Power: Royal Authority?
Genji himself relinquished royal power, and he knew very well that when royal power is released, the user is completely immobile, but why was Ince able to?
Ince's signature head-pinching gesture was self-evident, and Yabuki Sakura was the most nervous as six specially made throwing knives hurtled toward Ince.

Crow and Yaksha didn't care about anything else, and with a pistol in their left hand and a knife in their right, they wanted to rush up to save the people.

Aso Makoto was the fastest. A faint crimson moonlight appeared above his head, and the equally crimson paper figure in his hand instantly appeared behind Genjiro, pressing tightly against Genjiro's back.

When Xu Lie waved his hand and knocked away Yabuki Sakura's throwing knife, Genji's flesh and blood surged uncontrollably. What should have been a river of blood and blood was instead shimmering with moonlight on the crimson paper figure behind him.

The paper figure shattered into many fragments, which were drawn onto Xu Lie's gloves. Finding that they could not be swallowed, they simply scattered on the ground.

Meanwhile, Genjiro's figure flashed and he inexplicably returned to Aso Makoto's side. Still shaken, he took a few quick breaths, sweat beading on his forehead, and said, "Hoo hoo, thank you."

Genji was filled with relief after surviving the ordeal. If Aso hadn't intervened, he might have really died at Ince's hands!

"Be careful, Ince's Word of Power is Royal Authority, which can exert gravity on everyone! But strangely, he himself can still move freely when releasing Royal Authority." After thanking him, Genji immediately shouted out Ince's information.

Seeing this, Kazama Ruri, who was inside the car, finally released his right hand holding the knife; otherwise, he would have definitely rushed out to save his brother in the next second.

Aso Shin became serious, and the crimson moon above his head became even more radiant and alluring: "It may also be an extraordinary ability, and not necessarily royal power."

Compared to others, Makoto Aso understands his own church better, possessing a wide range of strange, bizarre, and unpredictable extraordinary abilities.

Leaving aside others, just take Mr. White Tower Fingel, whom I've met a few times, for example. He can imitate and use various kinds of Word Spirits. After advancing in rank, he can even develop a variety of secret techniques by using the power of Word Spirits.

Xu Lie inwardly praised Aso Shin for becoming increasingly capable, but outwardly he had to feign surprise: "The Moon Paper Doll? Is it actually a Witch King?"

Aso felt slightly uncomfortable. The former High Priestess of the Five Seas Diocese far surpassed her in terms of extraordinary knowledge. Ince knew her specific sequence name and probably also knew about the Witch King's extraordinary abilities.

But she knew nothing about Ince; what kind of extraordinary being he was, or what sequence level he belonged to? She had no idea.

All that is known is that Ince possesses a sealed artifact from the Bishop of the Five Seas, but the specific abilities and negative effects of the sealed artifact are unknown.

How to fight this?
Having no intention of saying more to Aso, Xu Lie turned to the Ghost Clan: "How about it? Your king is nothing but a rat in the gutter, too afraid to come out from underground and walk in the sunlight."

"Is such a mentor truly worth following?"

"It would be better to come under my command. Herzog promises to let you evolve into pure-blooded dragons so that we can develop evolution medicine."

"But that only temporarily enhances your bloodline. In the end, you will degenerate into dead servants. It's better to follow me. After I obtain the power of the White King, I can directly use the power of the White King and bestow upon you the bloodline imprint."

"For example, the Bloodline Imprint Amaterasu and Bloodline Imprint Tsukuyomi in your myths and legends are not problems. Everyone can become an emperor and become my divine messenger."

The elite members of the Oni Clan who had been following them hadn't left; they had all heard the whole story and knew their leader was a clone. The real Herzog, however, remained hidden, never having shown himself.

The most crucial point is that Xu Lie was still holding the radio when he said these words, and Herzog heard everything.

What's the difference between this and confronting the Minotaur?
Herzog was terrified. This Ince Zangwell was even more shameless than Bondarev.
It was he who, a long time ago, painstakingly gained the trust of the Ghost Clan, gave them the evolution medicine, and slowly took control of the entire Ghost Clan, which then grew stronger!

Now Ince jumps out and tries to pick the peaches, and two at that! Is Herzog some kind of peach tree that Ince planted in his backyard?!

Xu Lie's words were extremely persuasive, because Herzog's promised evolution had indeed hit a bottleneck.

When the Ghosts first saw the evolution potion, they were extremely excited, but after drinking it, they found themselves turning into Deadpool.

What kind of pure-blooded dragon is this?

Left with no other choice, the Demon Clan had to do the same as the Snake Clan, cleaning up the corrupt and deadly servants of their own organization. Many of the Demon Clan's elite members present were from this Cleaner Group.

Evolving into a pure-blooded dragon is too abstract and uncertain, and it's unknown when it can be achieved, but the Bloodline Imprint: Amaterasu is indeed recorded on the family mural!

Most of the hybrids from the Snake Clan know that their royal blood comes from the White King. If Ins can truly steal the White King's power and use the bloodline imprint to make everyone an emperor, they are no less than pure-blooded dragons!

In addition, Xu Lie himself is a Sequence 2 Trojan Horse of Destiny. He has not lost his extraordinary abilities as a conman. On the contrary, he has been strengthened many times. Gaining the trust of the Ghost Clan with just a few words is nothing more than that.

Not to mention Miyamoto Toru, his double agent and inside man. Miyamoto Toru, who was usually the most trusted by the king, stepped forward, bowed his head, and showed his submission: "I am willing to follow Lord Ince!"

The Oni Clan already revered power, and now that they saw Ince nearly instantly kill Genjiro, the current head of the Snake Clan, they were immediately filled with awe and respect.

With Miyamoto Toru leading the defection, coupled with the incompetence of the King General and the bottleneck of the evolution drug, and the inexplicable sense of trust they had developed for Ince, they quickly made a decision: "From now on, Lord Ince will be our new King General!"

"Under Lord Ince's leadership, we will surely be able to destroy our clan and seize the power of the White King!"

"Your Majesty, hahaha! I never thought that we, the so-called ghosts of our own clan, who were driven out, hunted down, and killed by our own clan, could one day become Your Majesty!"

The excited discussions and shouts of submission from the elite members of the Fierce Ghosts were transmitted to Herzog's cochlea through the recording device, infuriating the mastermind behind the scenes!

"Hyenas! They're all an ungrateful bunch of hyenas!"

"Die! You lot dare to dream of obtaining the White King's power? You dare to aspire to become emperors?!"

Xu Lie could roughly guess that Herzog's furious appearance made him feel good, and he smiled. After taking one last look at Aso Makoto, he prepared to leave.

Surely you can't really fight Aso Shin to the death? The first lesson for those who are extraordinary is to remember that you are always just playing a role.

Xu Lie remembered it very clearly.

Darkness, an endless, profound, and pure darkness, like water, surged from all parts of Ince's body, a black tide that seemed to want to engulf everything.

"Get out of the way!" Dark bat wings instantly sprouted from Asou's back, carrying him into the air. Before knowing Ince's specific methods and abilities, he had to be vigilant about all of Ince's abilities.

We cannot simply let ourselves fall into darkness.

Genjiro had no choice but to listen to Aso Makoto and his three retainers. The yakuza members quickly retreated, and fortunately, the darkness stopped after it had expanded to a certain extent.

Only a completely dark realm was formed. Aso Makoto in the sky breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from this, Ince's dark realm was similar to the moonlight realm she had during her time as a Crimson Scholar.

Ruri Kazama, who was still hiding in Aso Makoto's car, no longer had to agonize over whether to abandon the car and run away.

Kazama Ruri had been tricked by Inuyama Taro and his gang before, and knew all too well the disgusting methods of the old church, so she dared not easily come into contact with this Black Tide.

Just as Genji was about to ask Aso Makoto if he needed to go in and try it himself, the darkness gradually dissipated, putting them all on high alert.

When the darkness completely dissipated, the elite of the demons, Ince, had all vanished.
