Zhou Qi held the Rank 6 Mind Control Magic Insect in his hand, and it floated up, shimmering with a dazzling white light that shot like lightning towards the Yi Serpent Person captive's face.
Immediately after, a powerful Mental Energy erupted from the insect's tiny body, engulfing the Yi Serpent Person like a surging tide.
The Yi Serpent Person captive's eyes instantly became vacant, their previously angry gaze losing focus, and their entire being completely lost.
Its hands slowly rose uncontrollably, as if guided by an invisible force, cradling the Rank 6 Mind Control Magic Insect and carefully placing it on its head.
The moment the insect touched the Yi Serpent Person's head, it transformed into a phantom and quickly burrowed into the Yi Serpent Person's brain; the Yi Serpent Person captive's body trembled twice, as if enduring immense pain.
Afterward, it stopped moving completely, as if it had fallen into a deep slumber.
The surrounding atmosphere was quiet and somewhat oppressive; Moga Luo and Wang Yufei both stared intently at the Yi Serpent Person, awaiting the subsequent changes.
After a short while, the Yi Serpent Person captive's eyes suddenly opened again; the hostile gaze had vanished without a trace, replaced by endless reverence, like a deep lake reflecting Zhou Qi's figure.
It prostrated itself without hesitation, its body pressed tightly against the cold, rough ground, as if wanting to feel every trace of Zhou Qi's aura with its body, worshipping Zhou Qi in an extremely devout posture, shouting loudly, "Dominator!"
The voice, filled with fanaticism and loyalty, echoed like a great bell in every corner of the cave, stirring up invisible sound waves that vibrated in everyone's hearts.
Zhou Qi looked at the Yi Serpent Person, now parasitized, with curiosity and contemplation; he leaned slightly forward, his gaze fixed on the Yi Serpent Person, and asked, "How do you feel now? After being parasitized, do you still have your original memories?"
The Yi Serpent Person slowly raised its head, its movements cautious, its eyes filled with deference, like a devout believer gazing upon a deity.
It replied, "Dominator, after being parasitized, the original host's memories remain in my mind; those past fragments constantly appear in my mind like a series of images.
But the original host's spirit and Soul have been completely obliterated; now, I only have your commands in my heart; everything about me belongs to you; every breath I take, every action I make, exists only for you."
Zhou Qi nodded slightly, scrutinizing the Yi Serpent Person.
From its appearance, it was almost indistinguishable from before being parasitized; its scales still shimmered with a unique luster, and the lines of its body remained unchanged; had one not witnessed it firsthand, it would be hard to believe its consciousness had been completely controlled.
Its life strength level had increased from 8 points before parasitism to 13 points now.
To confirm the situation, Zhou Qi closed his eyes slightly, concentrating his Mental Energy; his brow furrowed slightly, shimmering with a faint light under the dim blue illumination.
As Mental Energy slowly released, an invisible force spread out from him, like a fine net, enveloping the Yi Serpent Person.
Under the perception of Mental Energy, he saw a faint shadow in the Yi Serpent Person's mind; that shadow emitted a mysterious and eerie aura, like flickering will-o'-the-wisps in the night sky, slowly wriggling in the depths of the Yi Serpent Person's consciousness.
Zhou Qi understood that this must be the Rank 6 Mind Control Magic Insect; he confirmed that the Mind Control Demon Bug' effect was so miraculous, and it could even further enhance the original host's life strength.
Zhou Qi's gaze shifted, his eyes gleaming with sharp light.
He slowly turned his head to look at the other captives in the cells; these captives came from different races, with various forms, and were now looking at Zhou Qi and the parasitized Yi Serpent Person with terrified eyes.
Some stared with wide eyes, filled with fear and despair; some trembled slightly, trying to hide themselves but having nowhere to escape; others gritted their teeth, their faces filled with unwillingness and anger.
Zhou Qi's face grew cold, a flicker of determination in his eyes, like a flash of lightning in a cold night.
He lifted his chin slightly and said in a low, powerful voice, "Let the other Rank 6 Mind Control Magic Insects go and parasitize them."
His voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable authority, like a command from the abyss, echoing exceptionally clearly in the silent cavern.
Upon hearing the command, a group of Rank 6 Mind Control Magic Insects moved instantly like soldiers receiving orders; their small bodies shimmered with strange light, their wings vibrating rapidly, making a "buzzing" sound, like a dense swarm of bees flying towards the various cells.
The other captives, having witnessed the change in the Yi Serpent Person, were already scared out of their wits.
They knew the fate that awaited them, and their hearts were filled with fear and despair; this fear engulfed them like a tide, making them lose their reason and begin to frantically try to escape.
The captives with higher life strength tried to resist with their own power; they let out angry roars, their voices filled with unwillingness and struggle, like the dying cries of wounded beasts.
Some brandished sharp claws, others released strange energies, attacking the Rank 6 Mind Control Magic Insects that rushed in.
However, the Rank 6 Mind Control Magic Insects were too strange; their attacks did not harm them, but they still managed to block the Mind Control Demon Bug.
At this moment, the Six-Stage Zhu Yan Devil Insects outside the cells fearlessly rushed into the cells, moving like black lightning among the captives; they wielded their scythe-like forelegs, cutting arcs of cold light in the air, bringing with them a strong gust of wind.
Each swing carried immense force, engaging in fierce combat with the resisting captives.
For a time, the sounds of shouting and screams intertwined in the cells; the Zhu Yan Demon Insect, relying on its agile movements and powerful attacks, skillfully avoided enemy attacks and seized opportunities to deliver fatal blows.
Their attacks were precise and ruthless, severely beating these high-life-strength captives until they were half-dead; some captives were scratched by the Zhu Yan Demon Insect's forelegs, blood splattering onto the cell walls and floor; others were hit in vital spots and painfully collapsed onto the cold ground.
As for the captives with lower life strength, they had no power to fight back against the Rank 6 Mind Control Magic Insects' attacks.
The Mind Control Demon Bug flew in front of them, releasing powerful Mental Energy, first a burst of Mental Energy erosion; that Mental Energy was like sharp steel needles, piercing into the captives' minds one by one, gradually blurring their consciousness.
Immediately after, the Mind Control Demon Bug launched brainwave interference, causing their thoughts to fall into chaos, as if they had entered a fog, completely losing their direction.
These captives' eyes became vacant; their once lively eyes now held only endless emptiness, and their bodies were no longer under their own control, moving mechanically according to the Mind Control Demon Bug' will.
