"What?" Everyone gasped and looked at Zoey at the same time. Camilla was connected to two souls. Since one of them had disappeared and the demon was unlikely to just talk, there was only one possibility left.
Althea's reaction was faster. When the chief steward screamed, she had already taken action. The main tentacle, which was powerful enough to crush a Devilbeast's torso, swept towards Zooey and pressed her to the ground. The force of the tentacle could be seen from the broken slate on her back. Obviously, Zooey did not hold back at all.
Zoey spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then the hall fell into a strange silence.
There was no doubt that Hercha was doing this to prevent the demons from occupying Zooey's body and launching an attack. The Mind Resonance made up for the lack of perceptual control. Once the God's Punishment Witches activated the anti-magic area, even a small gap could cause great damage.
Most of the witches present were not prepared to treat Zoey as an enemy.
Althea, who was once the commander of the Blessed Army, had much more battle experience than the others.
However, Zoey did not make a last struggle or fight to the death as they had imagined. From the moment the demon made its announcement to the moment she was pressed down by the main tentacle, she was as still as a puppet and showed no signs of being controlled.
"Did the demon's soul really transfer to this body?" After a while, Roland broke the silence.
"I've never encountered such a situation before …" Camilla still had lingering fear. "Although the Spiritual Resonance can be understood as a bridge, it's just another form of communication. How is it possible to abandon the existing body and directly invade the heart of the person who is connected to it?"
"Is there any way to confirm it?" Tilly frowned.
"Unless it opens its mouth." Althea loosened the main tentacle but still kept it confined. "But the possibility is not small. The soul can't exist without the carrier, otherwise we wouldn't be so dependent on the underground civilization. It's not impossible for the demon to destroy its own consciousness, but even if it did, it wouldn't do it any good. So we have to prepare for the worst." "
"I may have a way." Roland thought for a moment. "If we bring Zoey's light beam into the Dream World..."
"I don't agree!" Vendy immediately stopped him. "For you, any risk should be avoided."
"That's right. What if the demon takes over your body?" Nightingale echoed. "It's not a loser in the Soul Battlefield, but a real Senior Demon!"
"The risk is not uncontrollable," Roland slowly thought. "If it can really enter the Dream World, it must appear in a fixed location. As long as we arrange a team of God's Punishment Witches to enter the Dream, we can definitely destroy it before it can react. Moreover, the Dream World was completely different from the Spiritual Resonance. No matter what happened in the Dream World, it would not affect reality. As long as one woke up, the time in the Dream World would freeze, and any outsiders who did not belong to it would be forcefully expelled. Therefore, even if the worst case scenario is that Zoey disappears and the demon takes her place, we can still confirm it. "
"But..." Nightingale bit her lip and turned to look at Anna. "You should also persuade him."
"I don't object to him doing this," Anna said unexpectedly.
"Why?" Vendy and the others could not help but be stunned.
"Because he saved me," Pasha replied seriously. "If someone had tried to dissuade him because of a similar reason, I'm afraid I would have died on the scaffold. Now that I'm the one who dissuades him, I can't convince myself. Besides, I believe in Roland's judgment. He must know that he is no longer alone. "
As they spoke, they looked at each other and smiled. Their expressions were full of tacit understanding and trust.
"..." Althea was silent for a long time. "No matter what the result is, I will thank you on behalf of Zoey." "..."
"And I want to hear it from her." Roland nodded.
"I'll arrange for the most capable companions to come here right away," Pasha said gratefully.
"Also, before entering the Dream World, continue to maintain the state of mind resonance," Roland said casually. "Didn't Zoey say that as long as she doesn't ask you to stop, don't interrupt the state of mind resonance? If it's a contest of consciousness, it's hard to say who will lose. "

"Hey, female, guess what your insect companions are going to do now?"
Zoey looked up at the Senior Demon and then turned her attention back to her body.
Her chest was slightly bulging. Although it was almost non-bulging, it was still much more pleasing to the eye than the rough male body. His hands and feet were intact, and he could feel them clearly. However, his long uncut hair covered his forehead, just like in the Dream World …
"Ha! They will definitely surround you as if they are facing a formidable enemy, "the demon who called itself Kabradhabi sneered. The demon named Kabradhabi sneered. "When you figure out what's going on, there's a 30% chance that you'll be imprisoned and tied to an iron bed like a lowly worm, soaking in excrement all day long. Of course, there is a 70% chance that you will be executed directly. After all, you have been cutting your own flesh to prevent losses for 400 years. "
Zoe looked around. It was pitch black and there was nothing there. But it was not pure darkness. If there was no light, she would not be able to see herself. But in her field of vision, she could see both herself and the demon clearly.
"Hey, are you scared out of your wits? Or do you think you can escape by remaining silent?" Kabradhabi's voice became a little agitated. "My patience is limited. You'd better understand your situation. We won't really die here. If you try your best to please me, I may spare you a lot of suffering!"
"I thought demons wouldn't talk so much." Zoey tore a piece of cloth from her sleeve and tied up her long hair. "If I were you, even if I learned the insect language, I wouldn't chatter in front of the insects all day long."
"It doesn't matter if you are stubborn. Soon, you will only be able to scream." The demon sneered. "I can feel the power in your soul, which is more vigorous than most insects. It's a good choice to use you as my last opponent."
"Then what? After I'm executed, how good will you be? Could it be that you did all of this just to vent your anger on me? "
"What's wrong with that? Fight! Kill! Torture! Promote! Insects, this is the attitude of a superior species! Do you want me to kneel on the ground and beg for your forgiveness? "Kabradhabi roared." Death is nothing to be afraid of. Our souls will be taken in by the Origin of Magic. When the race reaches the top, we will return to the world again! "
"Then you'd better hurry up," Zoey said with a poker face. "Maybe they will kill you soon."
