Angle's Arrogance? My Pact with the Succubus Queen!

"Poof!" Knox spat out a mouthful of blood. His saw sword flew out of his hand and he was blasted backward, crashing heavily to the ground.

Harper and Quinn tried to use their speed to avoid, but at least ten of the twenty-seven clones were good at speed.

As soon as the two of them dodged ten figures, they were blocked and attacked by seventeen more. These clones hit them with fists and kicks, especially aiming for their chests and butts.

"Ahh!" Harper and Quinn cried out in pain. Their energy daggers fell from their hands, and they curled up on the ground, defending themselves.

As for Sanchez, he had already crouched down and was holding his head, surrendering.

The whole thing took less than ten seconds.

Four strong men from Pinocchini couldn't even last ten seconds in front of Logan!

This result made the whole crowd fall into silence again.

This time, even the sound of breathing disappeared.

Bobbi and Nel opened their eyes wide, their mouths wide enough to fit an egg.

They knew Logan was strong, but they hadn't expected him to be this strong. One person, easily beating a team of five elite members from Pinocchini!

"Logan is really strong, almost as strong as the boss!" Bobbi said in admiration. Nel also had a strange light in her eyes.

On the side of the Human Federation, Elena pushed up her glasses. Her eyes behind the glasses flashed with shock: "One hundred and eight Legend stage 5 star clones. This is beyond human ability. No wonder they respect this young man so much."

Rex took his hand off the hilt of his sword and took a deep breath: "I think, we are about to witness the rise of a great warrior."

Grayson took a puff of his cigarette and blew out a smoke ring: "This kid is even more abnormal than we thought. I think I'll follow him from now on."

General Camilla looked at Arthur Judge, and Arthur Judge's smile had turned into a look of satisfaction. "I said this kid was too strong. Now he's beaten them all."

General Camilla gave Arthur Judge a sidelong glance. "I was a little worried about this mission, but now I'm 90% sure we can bring Duerer and the others back!"

At that moment, Taliban struggled to get up from the ground.

He held his chest, watching his teammates being pinned down by Logan's spiritual body clones. His eyes were full of anger and frustration.

Logan saw this and smiled. "What's wrong? Not happy?"

"Logan! You're just using the number of familiars and your weird battle style to cheat!" Taliban roared. "If you're so strong, fight us in stage! Fight with real power! I'm a near-Saint stage with 27 star marks. I don't believe you have more star marks than us! You're just a traditional human. How many star marks can you light up with your belief? 20? 21? At most 22? You can't possibly beat us!"

Knox also got up from the ground. He wiped the blood from his mouth and said through gritted teeth: "Right! Using clones and familiars is nothing! Show us your star marks! I want to see if you even have the right to look down on us!"

Sanchez, Harper, and Quinn also struggled to stand, though they looked messy, their eyes still showed their stubbornness.

They didn't believe that a traditional human could light up more star marks than them without Pinocchini's advanced technology.

Logan looked at them for a while, then smiled. "You want to see my star marks?"

"What? You're too scared?" Taliban shouted. "You hit a weak spot! Haha!"

Logan nodded. "Star marks are definitely my weakness."

Then, the familiar space behind Logan opened up, and golden light shot into the sky. A series of star marks slowly appeared, shining like stars.

One, two, three... ten, twenty, twenty-three...

The number of star marks kept increasing. Each one gave off a powerful aura.

Taliban and his teammates stared at the star marks, silently counting in their hearts.

When the number of star marks reached 23, their faces began to change.

When it reached 26, their breathing started to quicken.

When it reached 28, their eyes widened, their mouths opened, but they couldn't make any sound.

28!

Behind Logan, a total of 28 star marks flashed in the air, one more than Taliban's 27!

"This can't be true!" Knox muttered, his voice full of disbelief.

Harper and Quinn were completely stunned. They opened their mouths but couldn't say a single word.

Taliban was like hit by lightning. He stared at the 28 star marks, his eyes full of shock, anger, and a bit of fear.

"28!" Taliban's voice was hoarse. "How could you light up 28 star marks and still be in Legend stage? 28 star marks should be enough to break into Saint stage, right?"

Logan pulled back his star marks, and the light slowly disappeared.

He looked calmly at Taliban. "I can't explain this to you. Just know that I'm stronger than you. From now on, you and your team will follow my orders."

Taliban opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

At that moment, the communicator on his wrist suddenly lit up, and a rough voice came through the static: "Taliban, report."

Taliban took a deep breath, pushed down his shock, and quickly reported everything that had just happened.

There was a silence on the other end.

After a while, the voice became serious: "Taliban, listen. From now on, your whole team will follow Logan's orders."

"This mission's leader is Logan. The deputy leader is Nel. You must fully obey the orders. No exceptions. This is an order!"

Taliban's face changed. "Captain, but…"

"No buts!" The voice cut him off. "If you don't obey, you can go back to Pinocchini right now and never come back."

Taliban bit his lip, then finally lowered his head. "Yes, captain."

The communication ended.

Taliban raised his head and looked at Logan again.

At that moment, his eyes were full of mixed feelings—disappointment, shock, but more than anything, a kind of helpless resignation.

He walked up to Logan and knelt on one knee: "Logan, the Pinocchini team will follow your orders."

Knox, Sanchez, Harper, and Quinn also came forward. Though their faces still showed some resistance, they also knelt on one knee: "We follow the captain's orders."

Logan looked at them and nodded. "I don't need your loyalty. I just need you to follow orders and finish the mission."

With that, Logan turned to face everyone. The second support team from the Human Federation, as well as the five members from Pinocchini, had already formed a line.

"The situation underground is dangerous. Chairman Solon and the others are still fighting hard, and General Augustus can't hold on much longer." Logan said, his voice echoing through the group. "We don't have time to waste. Now, as team leader, I order everyone to check your equipment and supplies. We leave for Golden Sand City in ten minutes!"

Outside Golden Sand City.

Logan led the second support team down near the Blade Squad's camp.

The scene before them made everyone's heart sink.

In the sky above the city, a huge transparent Blood Cultivation Realm flickered on and off, as if it might break at any moment.

And in one corner of the realm, General Augustus was floating in midair, pale and lifeless.

The sight of General Augustus made everyone gasp in shock.

This top military commander of the Military Committee now looked like he had been reduced to nothing more than a broken body.

His hands kept holding up the Blood Cultivation Realm's formation. His eyes had lost all their light.

What was still holding up General Augustus and keeping the Blood Cultivation Realm alive was just his instinct.

"Augustus!" General Camilla's voice trembled slightly.

Logan took a deep breath and flew to the edge of the Blood Cultivation Realm.

He extended his hands and gently touched the surface of the realm.

In an instant, the once weak Blood Cultivation Realm became extremely strong, and a terrifying power suddenly shot straight into Logan's soul.

"What is this! A trap?" Logan shouted, and immediately looked at General Augustus.

At the same time, General Augustus slowly turned his head. His dull eyes, when they saw Logan, finally lit up with a little light.

He opened his mouth as if to say something, but only coughed up a mouthful of blood.

But he still used all his remaining strength to nod at Logan.

At that moment, a familiar appeared from inside General Augustus's familiar space and said, "Young man, now it's up to you! Go in. I can still hold on for a day."

Hearing this, Logan and his team bowed respectfully to General Augustus.

Even the soldiers from Pinocchini felt a deep respect for General Augustus.

Logan raised his wrist and immediately contacted the Blade Squad.

During this time, the bone clan warriors had not broken out of the Blood Cultivation Realm, all because the Blade Squad and soldiers from nearby areas had risked their lives to delay them.

So far, there were still at least 500 bone clan warriors wandering around inside Golden Sand City.

The city was filled with bone spines and meat-like fungal carpets, like a real fungal hell.

As for underground, no one knew what was happening. General Monet's live stream had already stopped.

But from the energy readings alone, the energy in the underground space was extremely strong and very active.

"Ancestral Spirits' main body is probably still below." Logan frowned as he analyzed the situation. "But the fungal groups in the city might be part of Ancestral Spirits' biological system. We don't know what would happen if we don't destroy them. Maybe Ancestral Spirits could come back to life."

Arthur Judge nodded beside him and said: "The situation is worse than we thought. Ancestral Spirits is not only creating an army, but also spreading its fungal tissue across the city. We need to get underground as soon as possible and destroy its core."

At that moment, Camilla received a report from the Blade Squad commander, and her expression grew even more serious: "The Blade Squad has fought those bone clan puppets. Their abilities are almost the same as when they were alive, but they have no soul and their reactions are slow. However, they fight in a very organized way. It seems like someone is controlling them from behind."

Logan frowned when he heard this. "So before we go deep underground, we need to clear out the remaining enemies on the surface and destroy Ancestral Spirits' fungal tissue. We can't let it use them for anything."
