The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

"what happened?"

Linking her arm with his, the woman who had danced with Ning Feng earlier chuckled suggestively and said with a smile:

"I saw that young man who wasn't feeling well being invited into someone else's room. Hehe, he's really lucky with women."

"Looks like they're going to have a great night, haha."

"Hahaha……"

The group walked past the door chatting and laughing, completely unaware of the brief incident that had just occurred.

They are all from wealthy families, who have lived a life of luxury and extravagance, and have seen all sorts of outrageous things.

Having been in this industry for a long time, what kind of crossover combinations haven't I tried?

It was just one-on-one; that's all young people are like these days!

However, Ning Feng, who entered the room, did not experience the sexual bliss they had imagined.

Inside the room, Ning Feng stood at the door like a zombie, but his mind wasn't as blank as it appeared; he was thinking intently:

"...Um, what should I do if a succubus I don't know drags me to a room?"

"If I sell my body, will she let me go after she's had her fun?"

"I need help online, it's urgent!"

In Chapter Three, let's have a heart-to-heart talk.

Although he didn't know the principle behind it, Ning Feng was not charmed by the succubus's magic.

The moment the purple eyes lit up, Ning Feng was indeed affected for a moment, feeling his heart skip a beat, but he immediately regained his composure.

That moment of passion was like the romance between a young boy and girl in the bloom of youth.

They came fast, and they left even faster.

Coming to his senses, he saw the approaching crowd and the noblewoman he had danced with on the dance floor.

Ning Feng hesitated.

He suddenly realized what would happen if he called for help.

Ning Feng might be able to escape by chance, but those ordinary people he used as a shield would definitely be silenced by the enraged succubus.

Once the truth is revealed, the succubus will immediately launch a blood sacrifice, and then everything will be over.

His instinct to survive clashed violently with his desire not to implicate innocent people, leaving him frozen in place, his mind filled with conflict.

Finally, he made a difficult decision and pretended to be bewitched, walking into the succubus's trap.

To be honest, even now, Ning Feng can't figure out why he made such a decision.

Is it the unwavering commitment of a member of the Watchers to protect the innocent from harm? Is it a choice made after weighing the pros and cons? Or is it simply a desire to play the hero?

Ning Feng didn't know.

But at least in that moment, in his confusion, he listened to the choice in his heart.

"...Still playing the hero even now, it seems I'm quite ill too."

But being a hero often comes at a price.

The door seemed to isolate the room from all external disturbances, making it a separate space.

The succubus's room was decorated elegantly, with symmetrical and ornate patterns painted on the walls.

The incense was burning softly, and the scent of lavender spread through the air, exuding a sweet and invigorating aroma.

Rose petals floated in the huge bathtub behind the glass, emitting steam that made the space seem to be filled with a pale pink hue, easily conjuring up images of decadent affairs.

But seeing the succubus who stopped looking at him as soon as she entered, kicked away the soccer ball that was rolling on the ground, and started fiddling with the altar in the center of the room, Ning Feng had no interest in her at all.

Because in his eyes, it wasn't a football, but a human head with its eyeballs gouged out and blood still flowing from its eye sockets!

Looking at the empty eye sockets of the human head, Ning Feng felt a sense of absurdity rather than fear and disgust.

It's not about others, it's about yourself.

Because he realized that he had misunderstood before.

Still wondering if I could negotiate with the succubus, if I could conquer her with the superb skills I'd learned from watching countless films...

It's so naive it's laughable.

Having spent too long in a peaceful country, Ning Feng still couldn't adapt to this cruel world for a while.

This is not something he can simply detach himself from as an ordinary person, nor is it something that can be handled by professionals. It's not something that can be taken for granted.

It's time to face reality and abandon illusions.

Look!

That poor guy who died tragically was just an ordinary person, or perhaps a successful person with a high social status.

And this very person, whom Ning Feng once only admired, was, in the eyes of that succubus, of no greater value than material for building an altar.

This world is dangerous and cruel; it won't spare you just because you're powerless.

When danger comes, ordinary people are just lambs to the slaughter, howling as they are taken from and exploited.

Ning Feng did not want to accept this outcome, and if he wanted to resist, he needed power.

At this moment, Ning Feng's belief was crystal clear—to become an Awakened One.

Since one cannot escape from the world of the Awakened, the identity of a logistics commander is absolutely insufficient to protect oneself.

We must become awakened!

Since we're already here, we can't let ourselves be crushed like an insect!

The goal is clear, but there is still a long way to go before it is achieved. The first thing to do is to solve the current crisis.

Live!

To survive, he had no choice but to kill the succubus.

In the center of the room was a magic circle with a diameter of two meters, on which various human limbs and organs were pieced together and piled up, vaguely revealing a distorted human shape.

This succubus is a cultist, and considering her race, she is very likely the culprit who bewitched others!

Moreover, the ceremony is progressing faster than expected, and the altar may only need one more person to complete its construction.

Suppressing his nervousness, Ning Feng searched his memory for things he could do now.

"It was originally just an investigation mission, so I didn't carry much with me. I only had four bottles of Holy Flame on me, along with the Silver Light Dagger."

With extremely subtle movements, Ning Feng pulled the dagger from his sleeve. His expression was blank, revealing nothing unusual, but his heart was gradually racing.

Dongdong.

"Holy Flame can cause effective damage, but it must act on the blood; the more blood there is, the greater the effect!"

"Silver Light has some armor penetration bonus, but due to its small size, it is difficult to cause significant damage."

Ning Feng was originally just an ordinary person who had no knowledge of combat skills and at most played puzzle games like "Old Man Scroll" and "Gwent 3".

He was unwilling to fight and was afraid of death.

But Ning Feng, as a member of the Watchers, was no stranger to these things.

Even after shifting his focus to command, he did not neglect his training, continuing to prepare for battle and dedicating himself to it day after day.

Ning Feng discreetly scanned the succubus woman; to inflict sufficient harm on her, he didn't have many options.

The brain is naturally the most effective target. Regardless of whether a creature is a supernatural being or not, as long as it remains within the realm of mortals, it will inevitably be a fatal weakness.

However, Ning Feng lacked the confidence to pierce the succubus's skull with his dagger and had no choice but to give up.

As for using a dagger for decapitation, the requirements for strength and skill are too high, making it equally impractical.

While slitting the throat is effective against other supernatural beings, it is useful but not very effective against demons, who have the ability to manipulate flesh and blood.

And the last remaining option...

Backstab.

Insert the needle into the back of the heart, avoiding the ribs and spine, and pierce the heart directly!

This requires a certain level of skill, but it has a high tolerance for error and the accuracy requirement is lower than before.

"We only have one chance; we must severely injure her!"

"Otherwise, once she realizes what's happening, I won't have anywhere to run in this confined space!"

Without much hesitation, the succubus could turn around at any moment.

Holding his breath, he slowly moved his body closer, and then exploded when he was only two meters away.

With a desperate madness in his eyes, Ning Feng suddenly rushed towards the unsuspecting back!

Dongdong!

At that moment, he had no other thoughts in his mind but to kill her and survive.

The distance between the two shortened in an instant, and when Ning Feng was highly focused, the succubus's back seemed to appear as an illusory color in his eyes.

Amidst a sea of ​​muted colors, there stood one striking, blood-red spot!

[3 centimeters to the right, 15 degrees upward.]

As if guided by divine inspiration, Ning Feng subtly adjusted the angle at the last moment, aiming at the small, blood-red dot within!

Let's chat, miss.

The kind that comes from the bottom of your heart!

Over there, after inspecting the altar once more, the succubus nodded in satisfaction and remarked:

"We were just one person short of materials to complete the ceremony, and then we ran into them as soon as we stepped out the door. How lucky!"

Thump thump thump!

"Alright, it's almost done... Ah!!!"

The dagger flashed like a silver lightning bolt in the dimly lit room, carrying a suppressed madness that erupted as it plunged deep into the succubus's back!
