From the curse back, I started to eat the clone's soft rice

"Wait, what are you guys doing?"

Chapter 70: The Black Snake in the Crash, Tallulah: Loyalty! Sincerity!

"Relax, I'm just helping you solve a small problem that's parasitic on you."

Bound by golden chains, Tallulah felt dizzy and vaguely saw the red-haired woman walk up to her and gently stroke her cheek.

“Inaction transforms.”

Makima muttered to herself, and unleashed the most special ability she had acquired after dominating the four cursed spirits of natural disasters in the world of spells.

A non-action transformation that allows the holder of the technique to directly touch and transform the soul.

After using this ability, from Makima's perspective, she successfully touched Tallulah, as well as another soul with a dark aura that was lurking on Tallulah's soul like a leech.

Obviously, this is the other consciousness that was killed by Tallulah in the original plot and directly possessed Tallulah's body, the undead black snake Kosice of Ursus.

"This kind of power... How is it possible?!"

As if sensing the coming danger, the soul was restless, but unfortunately it was suppressed by the restraining chains. Kosice couldn't even escape from Tallulah's body before Makima used the inaction transformation to grab his soul.

In an instant, the soul emitting black aura was torn off from Tallulah's soul. Although it struggled desperately, under the power of inaction that could touch and transform the soul, Kosice's soul finally twisted and turned into a black ring engraved with snake patterns in Makima's hand.

"Okay, it's solved."

The golden chains dissipated. After half-kneeling on the ground and taking a breath for a while, Tallulah managed to stand up and look at the black ring in Makima's hand.

"Was that Kosice's consciousness just now? Did you seal it in this ring?"

In fact, Talulah always had a premonition that Kosciuszko was not dead. After all, how could the immortal black snake be killed so easily by her?

But she didn't expect that when facing Mebius and others in front of her, Kosice was defeated so easily, and even her consciousness was pulled out of her body.

In this situation, no matter how insidious and cunning Kosice is, he probably can't do anything, right?

"It's not a seal. To be precise, I transformed its soul into this ring. This ring is the soul and consciousness of the immortal black snake Kosheche."

Makima explained, and at the same time used the power to control demons to completely control the consciousness of Kosice, which had transformed into a ring in his hand.

Thus, the legendary Grand Duke of Ursus, Koschei, the undead black snake that had been entrenched on this land for countless years, came to an end. Machima also gained the same ability as Koschei to reside his consciousness in the body of another, occupying and assimilating it.

"Okay, time to give your answer, dear little white mouse."

"Will you continue to sink into despair by clinging to your unrealistic ideals, or will you, with our help, build a new nation that is willing to stop oppressing the infected?"

After dealing with the undead black snake that was parasitic on Tallulah, Mebius took the ring from Makima and continued to ask Tallulah about her final choice.

"If I establish a new nation for you, will you really not continue to oppress the infected?"

To be honest, rebellion and nation-building are two words that are quite far away from Tallulah.

Even though she led the members of the Reunion Movement to fight guerrilla warfare against the Ursus infected patrols in the snow every day, Talulah did not actually have the treasonous idea of ​​overthrowing Ursus and establishing a new country.

But now, after having heard Mobius's previous analysis of the future of the Reunion Movement and the difficulty of achieving his ideal on his own, and having witnessed how he subdued Kosciuszko with a flick of his hand and how he could easily enhance and control the strength of himself, the Patriot, Froststar, and others, Talulah admitted that she was moved.

Even if she could establish a new country in the future, it would only be for the benefit of the people in front of her. But as long as the new country no longer oppressed the infected and allowed the infected and ordinary civilians to live peacefully on this land, she would be willing to be their pawn, even if she had to give up everything in the end, she would have no regrets!

After all, without the help of these people, she wouldn't have had this ability, right?

"We have no interest in inefficient actions like oppressing the infected. As long as you are willing to be obedient and cooperate with us, the future you expect will surely come."

Faced with the pie drawn by Mebius, Tallulah took a deep breath and made up her mind.

"In that case, then I have only one answer..."

"I am willing to cooperate with all your orders and dedicate myself to a country where the infected and ordinary people no longer hate each other!"

Although there was nothing around her that could be broken to demonstrate her determination, the three people present could easily hear her firmness from her tone.

"Very good. Next, let's have those Reunion members outside pack up and prepare to leave early tomorrow morning."

"I see. So where are we going after we leave?"

Hearing Mebius' words, Tallulah nodded and then asked.

"Of course it's the territory of the Grand Duke of Ursus, Kosice."

"After all, it would be a shame not to make good use of such a useful thing."

Tossing the ring in his hand that was transformed from Kosice's soul, Mebius smiled and spoke.

"Also, although you are required to obey all our orders, you must remember that there is only one person you truly need to obey from beginning to end, and that is our master."

"Owner?"

Turning her head in surprise, Tallulah followed Mebius's gaze and saw Anshu, who had been sitting beside her without saying a word from beginning to end.

"It's him?"

Before this, the person who mainly communicated with Tallulah had always been Mobius. In addition, Mobius's performance was very strong, and he easily defeated her and the Patriot, the two strongest fighters of the Reunion Movement. Therefore, Tallulah subconsciously thought that the other party was the leader among the people in front of her.

Unexpectedly, among these people, the one with the highest status was the man who remained silent, as if he had left everything to Mebius.

What kind of person could gain the loyalty of Mobius, who looked dangerous at first sight, and the red-haired woman beside him whose methods were terrifying and who easily killed Kosice, and even make the two of them call him master?

Tallulah didn't know and couldn't figure it out at all. With her current understanding, this situation was obviously beyond her scope.

"All of us are extensions of the Master's consciousness. Therefore, no matter what happens in the future, even if the Master's orders conflict with our decisions, we must obey the Master first."

Mebius solemnly told Tallulah that this was the consensus of all the clones. Although the latter was not a clone, as the core of the game that would allow Anshu to beat up the natives of Terra, Tallulah must first have this understanding.

Chapter 71: Arriving at the Dukedom and Taking Over the Third Army

The next morning, all the members of the Reunion Movement, who had received orders to pack up their things the night before, gathered outside the village.

It's called cleaning up, but as an integrated movement composed almost entirely of infected people, most of the members are penniless paupers. Except for the clothes they wear and the weapons they picked up, it would probably take less than ten seconds to clean up all their belongings.

The only ones who looked like they had packed up were probably the logistics members who were carefully carrying the remaining 30 kilograms of food from the Reunion Movement warehouse. Although the amount of food was small and could only barely fill a backpack, it was indeed the only rations left for the more than 100 people in the Reunion Movement.

"Get ready to go."

At this moment, it was An Xiu himself who issued the order in the team.

As for Mobius and Makima, they had already returned to the One Punch Man world and the Jujutsu world respectively last night. Mobius said that he would go back to prepare and come back after the Reunion Movement arrived in Koschei Territory.

Meanwhile, Makima is currently in the world of magic, meeting with leaders of various countries as a high-level representative of the magic community, and cannot be away for too long.

"set off!"

Tallulah in the team also gave orders at this moment. The Patriot, who was standing at the front of the team and was so tall that even the heavy shield guards looked a little dwarfed, immediately led the members around him to move forward.

The Reunion Movement began to march towards Koschei Territory in a mighty procession.

"Will traveling so blatantly through Ursus attract an attack from the Infected Patrol?"

On the way, Tallulah muttered to herself somewhat uneasily.

"Don't worry, Mebius made all the arrangements last night before leaving. We won't encounter any threats from the Ursus government along the way. We just need to be careful and pay attention to other dangers."

Anshu, who had come to Tallulah's side at some point, spoke.

"Anxiu...Mr."

Seeing Anxiu coming, Tallulah subconsciously wanted to make way, but then she seemed to remember something and stopped, and just nodded to Anxiu.

It wasn't that Tallulah wanted to turn against her after seeing Mebius and Makima leave, but Anshu specifically asked Tallulah not to be too respectful to him in public.

What happens in private is a private matter, and what happens in public is another matter. According to the plan, Tallulah will need to show up in public frequently for a long time in the future. If too many people know that there is a master behind the future Queen of Terra, and it becomes known to everyone in the end, it will not be fun if her image is destroyed too early.

This is also the case with An Xiu's other clones. Unless he is in front of someone like Talulah who is half his own, An Xiu does not want outsiders to know the true relationship between him and his clones too early. This kind of thing will definitely satisfy his vanity more and more as time goes by.

In other words, this is also part of play.

"Don't be too nervous. Although Mobius said that everything should be based on my will, under normal circumstances, I usually don't express my opinions, especially when Mobius and the others are around."

"After all, Mobius and the others are much smarter than me. They can think of everything I can think of. Even if I really want to do something, they can think of it for me in advance. So most of the time, it's okay if you just pretend I don't exist."

Listening to Anxiu's words, Tallulah nodded with a somewhat unnatural expression.

Although it was a bit rude, An Xiu's description made her think of a picture of an incompetent noble and his loyal and capable subordinates.

Although such situations are rare in Ursus and even in the entire Terra, they do exist. There are many storybooks with similar plots and settings in the neighboring Dayan. If this incompetent noble or lord emperor is more jealous of talented people, it would be even more appropriate for him to persecute his loyal subordinates.

Oh no, considering the beauty of Mobius and Miss Makima whom he saw last night, and perhaps the setting of excessive debauchery, he accepts the service of his subordinates while forcing them to take over their bodies because of their beauty. The loyal female subordinates can only accept the demands while doing their best to repel various invading enemies...

No, no, no, no matter how you look at it, this is a bit too outrageous. This is no longer a plot or setting that could appear in reality or even in a storybook. This is clearly a plot that only appears in some unspeakable books that will only be circulated underground in Longmen and will be severely cracked down by the Longmen Police Department as soon as it appears.

Besides, Mobius and Machima, with just one thing they casually gave away, could increase the strength of themselves, Frost Star and Patriot several times. One of them had such terrifying means that even Kosice's soul was pulled out and crushed at will. Which incompetent noble's subordinates could be so powerful?

The reality is not the story of Dayan. How can a person without ability gain the loyalty of people like Mobius and Miss Makima and be called master by them?

You know, both Mobius and Makima gave Tallulah a very dangerous feeling. Such people are not only not capable, but also do not seem like law-abiding people in terms of their personalities.

Therefore, Mr. Anxiu cannot be the person he thinks he is in order to suppress these two. There must be some deep meaning behind why he left everything to Mobius in the village before.

I have no idea what the white-haired dragon girl next to me is thinking. Anyway, after a few days of migration and travel, all the members of the Integration Movement that Anxiu was in finally arrived in Kosice Territory.

Normally, a duchy like this one, especially the Duke's Castle in the center, would not be approached by anyone, not even ordinary Ursus citizens, let alone those infected by the Reunion Movement.

And now, not only did the infected people of the Reunion Movement walk in openly, but there was even a guard of honor that was dispatched in advance to line up in front of the Duke's Castle to welcome them. The troops that were assigned to maintain law and order nearby also stood straight and turned a blind eye to the infected people of the Reunion Movement who passed by them from time to time.

There is no other reason. The orders these people received included those infected, and those who came to the Duke's territory now were all distinguished guests.

In the end, Anxiu, Tallulah, Frost Star, Patriot and a few others were respectfully invited into the Duke's Castle, while the rest of the Reunion Movement members were properly placed in a specially designated area within the territory for recuperation.

"Now that we have safely arrived at the Dukedom, we can proceed with the next plan."

Inside the Duke's Castle, in a meeting hall, Mebius, who had returned to Anxiu from the One Punch World, spoke to everyone in the hall.

"Next, we will stay in Koschei for a while, take over the Third Army during this time, and then... declare war on the Emperor of Ursus."

Chapter 72: Wendigo Clone Project, Some Wars Are Over From the Beginning

Take over the Third Army and declare war on Emperor Ursus.

If such words were to be spread, it would undoubtedly cause the entire Ursus situation to become turbulent in an instant, and make the emperor in the Saint Steed Castle emit a sharp explosion.

After all, that was the Third Army of Ursus, one of the most powerful armies in the entire Ursus, an absolute elite that could single-handedly ravage many small countries in Terra. It was a private army controlled by Grand Duke Baikal, the Duke of Ursus.

Why was Mebius confident that he could take over an army that was in the hands of others?

Of course, it was because she had Koschei in her hands, the consciousness and soul of the undead black snake of Ursus.

Makima's power of control is still very powerful. When she solved the problem of Tallulah before, she controlled the consciousness of Black Snake, and also took over the other consciousnesses of Black Snake scattered around.

After all, these consciousnesses are not independent of each other. The Black Snake has always had only one true will. When Makima dominated the Black Snake's main consciousness in Tallulah, the other fragments of consciousness were naturally dominated as well.

In other words, now whatever Mobius wants Black Snake to do, Black Snake will help her do it. Those forces that were once in the hands of Black Snake have now naturally become the power in the hands of Mobius.

The Grand Duke of Baikal, who controls the Third Army, happens to be a chess piece in the hands of Black Snake. As long as Mebius wants, the Third Army can be handed over to her at any time.

"If we have the power of the Third Army, then we are indeed qualified to compete with Saint Steu Castle. However, if we rely solely on the Third Army, considering the presence of other Grand Dukes and their armies, becoming the final victor... will be difficult."

The patriot Weng Liweng, whose voice had returned to normal, spoke angrily. He was a man who was very frugal with words and it was really not his habit to speak such a long paragraph in one breath.

At this time, he and Frost Star already knew that Tallulah planned to join forces with Mebius and Anshu, who had suddenly broken into the Reunion Movement, to overthrow the rule of Emperor Ursus and establish a new country.

Although they were shocked by Tallulah's idea, they believed in her as a person and decided to do their best to help her achieve this goal.

As for how to take over the Third Army, considering the various methods that Mebius had demonstrated before and his current confident appearance, he was probably well prepared and they didn't need to worry about it.

"There's no need to worry about military strength. Although we intend to take over the Third Army, they won't be the main force involved in the war when we declare war on Emperor Ursus."

Mebius showed no concern at all about the predicament described by the Patriot or the existence of other armies, but what she said made everyone present somewhat confused.

The Third Army is already the most elite army of Ursus. If even such an army is not the main force in the next war, then what kind of army can be the main force?

And according to what Mebius meant, could she find other armies of the same size as the Third Army, or even stronger?

Even An Xiu was a little curious about this.

He was not curious about whether what Mebius said was true. After all, he knew Mebius's abilities very well. At the moment, he was just curious about what big thing Mebius had done to make him say such nonsense.

In this way, the first meeting of the rebel group headed by Tallulah and Mobius before the rebellion ended quickly. After everyone left, Mobius returned to Anshu and suggested that they return to the One Punch World together.

Obviously, in the previous meeting, Mebius had seen through An Xiu's thoughts and was preparing to show An Xiu the results of her research and preparations in the past few days in advance.

......

In the One Punch Man world, inside Mebius's research base.

Without lingering in front of the various research equipment on the ground, Mebius opened a passage leading to the underground of the research base, and a wider space appeared in front of Anxiu.
