?57: Chapter 57: Terrifying Ability 57: Chapter 57: Terrifying Ability “Damnable!” The puppet maker was unaware of the specific circumstances, but soon after Zhou Tian left, those NPCs had come to attack.

    If this had nothing to do with him, the puppet maker would never believe it.

    However, even if the puppet maker had Zhou Tian in mind, she still couldn’t ignore the threat of the NPCs.

    “How dare you destroy my beloved children, all of you, die!” Seeing those NPCs constantly slaughtering various puppets, the puppet maker, who saw those puppets as her children, just ignored how to retaliate against Zhou Tian, and directly attacked those NPCs.

    “Be careful, that’s the Puppet Maker, the strongest monster outside our city!” Recognizing her, the NPCs immediately called out to their companions, worried that others would underestimate her due to not understanding her identity, and end up wounded.

    However, although those NPCs had heard of the puppet maker, they did not understand the meaning of the title ‘strongest monster’.

    As they colluded against the puppet maker, they still ended up in a very awkward situation in face of her attacks, even though they were all prepared.

    “No, I …”

    “What happened?”

    “Everyone be careful!”

    “…”

    Those who did not take action against the puppet maker were immediately taught a lesson by her.

    She used some mysterious method, in front of the NPCs, and numerous among them, in a frenzy-like state, suddenly started slashing their companions next to them.

    “Don’t panic, this is the puppet maker’s ability, she can control us through strings, just cut those strings, and everyone can recover naturally!” Whether someone had understood the puppet maker’s ability early on or observed those things, as the NPC camp fell into chaos, an NPC military officer quickly explained her ability out loud.

    However, the NPC’s words didn’t have much of an effect.

    After listening to his explanation, although most NPCs understood the puppet maker’s ability.

    But once they understood, their fear only worsened.

    The ability of the puppet maker is terrifying for ordinary living beings.

    Not to mention that it is hard to detect when it is unleashed, and seeing oneself or allies lose control over their bodies, under complete enemy control, it’s impossible not to feel anything.

    This has to do with the fact that the puppet maker’s control thread seemed to use fingers, and her ability is targeted at a small group.

    As such, the NPCs could still resist.

    Otherwise, if her ability could affect all NPCs directly, even if they weren’t scared off by her ability, they would surely die quickly under their companions’ blades.

    “Die!” Seeing their soldiers all terrified by the puppet maker’s ability, the leading NPCs locked eyes and, after gritting their teeth, pounced at the puppet maker all at once.

    At this time, it was clear that due to the puppet maker’s ability, the morale of the NPCs had taken a significant hit.

    If nobody stopped the puppet maker’s actions, it would not take long for most of the NPCs to lose their courage to attack.

    Therefore, although they knew the puppet maker was strong, the NPC military officers still had to fight.

    After all, among the current NPCs, only their strength can barely compete with the puppet maker.

    If they didn’t take action, their team would face a great defeat.

    One of the mages among the NPC military officers was the first to take action. sea??h thё n?vel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    As they pointed at the puppet maker, their magical power began to operate internally.

    A ray of lightning then shot directly at the puppet maker.

    The magic released by the NPC at that time was extremely fast, and an average person simply wouldn’t have the ability to dodge it.

    But clearly, the puppet maker was not an average person.

    The NPC’s magic hadn’t even properly landed on the puppet maker’s body before it was blocked by another NPC.

    “Damnit!” NPCs certainly wouldn’t voluntarily run to block an enemy attack for the puppet maker.

    It was evident that the NPC had done so because they had been controlled by the puppet maker!

    Despite facing several strong NPCs, although the puppet maker was confident that none of them could rival her, she also knew that if they joined forces, it would still pose a threat.

    So, the puppet maker who had previously shown a strong attitude also had to take a defensive stance during the standoff with the NPC powerhouses.

    However, when the puppet maker took defensive actions, it immediately angered all the NPCs.

    The puppet maker herself did not have any defensive abilities.

    Her defense consisted of controlling several NPCs to use as shields.

    Thus, when she was standing in mid-air confronting the NPCs, she instantly floated up numerous gesticulating NPC soldiers before and behind her.

    Seeing their companions being used by the puppet maker, how could the NPCs not be furious?

    “You are so despicable!” Seeing the puppet maker’s actions, even though the NPCs were extremely angry, they had to consider that the puppet maker was using their soldiers as shields.

    In their anger against the puppet maker’s actions, the NPC officers couldn’t help but feel hesitant to take action.

    “What should we do now?” Just as those NPC officers were considering how to deal with the puppet maker’s abilities, the puppet maker herself had already taken the initiative to attack.

    The NPCs were considerate, but the puppet maker would not hesitate.

    In her view, as long as it was beneficial, even if it involved using despicable means, so what?

    Thinking of her ‘children’ who were being slaughtered, the puppet maker hated the NPCs violently.

    As such, even if the NPCs did not attack her, the puppet maker had no intention of letting them go.
