Most importantly, do you think I'm asking for your opinion?

No!

I'm just informing you.

It is not up to you to become my servant."

With the last word blurted out, Wilmes slowly took out the jar containing the rare items.

When he saw the tentacle monster inside that had swelled to an astonishing size, Balagas's face suddenly changed, and he screamed in horror: "...Mind Flayer? Get away! Get that thing away from me.

Stay away!"

"Sorry, it's late. It may hurt a little later, please be patient. Trust me, this process won't be long, and the pain is only temporary."

Wilmes grinned with a sinister and evil smile, and copied and pasted exactly what Zuo Si said to him back then.

No hesitation!

She directly broke the jar, roughly pulled the strange object out, and then threw it into the face of Balagas "Flying Flame".

The strange object is no nonsense, waving its thick tentacles to activate psychic powers, opening the opponent's fragile and sensitive nostrils alive, and forcefully squeezing the soft body in.

This process is undoubtedly very painful and terrifying.

So much so that Balagas began to struggle and resist like crazy, trying to burn this terrifying creature that was about to invade his brain to death through his breath of flames.

But unfortunately, Ashmi was already prepared and quickly maximized the binding power of the magic circle and chains, making him lie on the ground unable to move. He could only let out a painful groan from between his teeth.

The two lava-like eyes are full of despair for the upcoming tragic fate.

Because anyone with a little bit of common sense knows what it means to have your brain eaten and replaced by a creature like the Mind Flayer.

That was not physical death in the ordinary sense, nor was it simply the destruction of the brain.

Rather, it is an all-round obliteration from spirit to consciousness, from body to soul.

Although Balagas didn't know exactly what the huge Mind Flayer-like creature in front of him was and how it was created, he could clearly feel the psychic powers emanating from the sticky tentacles.

The closer it is to the cranial cavity, the more susceptible the brain is to interference.

It even clearly sends a certain signal to the body, but it cannot be transmitted at all.

In addition, the torture caused by the fragile nasal mucosa being forcibly stretched open and torn also caused him to tremble violently uncontrollably.

After about several minutes, when the strange object completely entered the connection between the brain and the spine, and inserted its tentacles deeply into the nerve center to complete the control of the body, the struggle of Balagas' "Flying Flame" completely stopped.

"Done?"

The female moon elf mage asked in an uncertain tone.

Wilmes smiled and replied: "Ah! It's done! Let him go! From now on, he will be our most loyal ally and servant."

Ashmi was obviously a little hesitant, and first cautiously let go of the magic circle.

Seeing that Balagas' "Flying Flame" did not rise up to attack, she finally released the magic chains wrapped around her body.

After all the restraints were gone, the ancient red dragon stood up and moved its body a little under the nervous gaze of several pairs of eyes.

Just when everyone around him felt very uneasy, Wilmes suddenly issued a series of orders without warning.

"Lie down!"

"Get down!"

"Roll!"

"Handshake!"

……

In the blink of an eye, Balagas' "Flying Flame", which was exuding a strong aura and intimidation just now, transformed into a husky.

Especially the action of sticking out the tongue is no different from that of a pet dog, and my jaw dropped in shock.

The brown dragon Otagos and the black dragon Oroxes, who had been tortured and abused by Balagas, repeatedly rubbed their eyes with their paws to confirm that they were not hallucinating.

After all, in their impression, the former master was an out-and-out cruel king, and not even the demons in the bottomless abyss could compare with him.

But now, the entire dragon's painting style has become inappropriate, even making people laugh.

"Well - what a good dog!"

Wilmes raised his left front paw and patted Balagas on the head. The action was no different from a human stroking a dog's head.

At this moment, she was extremely lucky that there were no other witnesses around when she did these actions. Otherwise, if she were like Balagas, she would be completely dead in the dragon circle.

Ashmi stared at this scene with wide eyes in shock. After a full minute, she carefully probed: "That mind flayer-like creature just swallowed and replaced his brain?"

"No! The strange object only temporarily severed the connection between the brain and spinal nerves.

Balagos is still alive and can hear and see everything happening around him, but he cannot control his body.

How about it, it’s a great creation and invention, isn’t it?

You must know that this is a gadget that Soth successfully made when he was still an apprentice, but it can make a ferocious ancient red dragon unable to resist.

It's a pity that he only made this one, otherwise we could easily control hundreds of dragons to form a legion.

It’s like a doomsday scene that blocks out the sky and the sun under the influence of Dragon Madness.”

When he said these words, Wilmes showed an expression of expectation and yearning.

As a teenager, she was once influenced by King Killer to join a dragon parade, and was deeply impressed by the destruction that dozens or even hundreds of dragons could cause when they gathered together to attack a town.
p>

If it weren't for those damn pointed-eared elves who secretly hid in the dark and stabbed the dragon with the dragon madness during the war between giants and dragons in ancient times, where would the world of Toril have been ruled by mortals?

You must know that in the eyes of the dragons, the elves who have just arrived in this world are actually no different from humans. They are all like "two-legged sheep".

At that time, the sun elf princes had to offer rare and rare moon elf "human sacrifices" to the "Lord of the Mountains", a powerful advanced dragon, in exchange for short-term peace.

At that time, there were only a few dozen sun elves in the entire Faerûn continent, and there was only one moon elf this time.

Although these guys later succeeded in killing the "Lord of the Mountains" by summoning the power of the ooze god Ghaunadaur through conspiracy and trickery, we can also feel how powerful the dragon was at that time.

So this is why dragons from the evil camp, whether they are red dragons or green dragons, especially like to eat elves.

The hatred between the two races is so deep that it cannot be resolved completely.

Although the elves in Faerûn currently always pretend to be pure, kind, and innocent, and often appear as victims, in fact they have done so many immoral things in the past that they are too numerous to count.<

/p>

Especially things like the Dragon Mad Lock are still causing huge killings, destruction and death.

Thinking of this, Wilmes glanced at Ashmi with a creepy look, and the latter suddenly shivered with fright.

But fortunately, she knew that this month's elf mage was not an elf in the general sense. From the moment he fell into the evil camp, he was no longer protected by the elf gods. Now he should be on her side, so she suppressed

The strong desire for killing and revenge in his heart.

After a brief silence, Wilmes immediately spoke to the strange object again and said: "Allow Balagas to speak."

"As you wish!"

The strange object instantly let go of its control, allowing the ancient red dragon under its control to temporarily gain control of its mouth and throat.

The next second...

Balagas roared angrily: "Damn bastard! What did you do to me? That monster can actually forcibly control my body!"

"Hehehe, didn't I tell you just now?

From now on, you are my most loyal servant.

Remember, the strange thing that got into your brain just now can read your thoughts and memories at any time and cut off your control over any part of your body.

This means that whenever you have the slightest thought that you shouldn’t have, it will instantly sense it and make you unable to do anything.

The only thing you can do now is kneel down and swear allegiance to me, and become a good dog that obeys my orders.

Otherwise you can never hope to regain control of your body.

And my patience is not unlimited.

If you still refuse to bow your head, then I will let it eat your brain and replace it.

It just so happens that Soth also wants a brain-stealing dragon."

The corners of Wilmes' mouth rose sharply, revealing a devilish smile.

I don’t know if it’s because of her purgatory bloodline, but she is increasingly able to feel the happiness and satisfaction that Zuo Si brings to him by threatening, manipulating, and controlling other people’s psychology.

As soon as he heard the three words "brain-stealing dragon", Balagas's heart instantly surged with uncontrollable intense fear.

As an ancient red dragon, he is not as ignorant as ordinary adult dragons. He knows that this kind of creature can be called taboo even among the mind flayers.

Generally speaking, there are two situations of brain-stealing dragons.
