Cesar was shaken. “The Dragon Bloodline... I can't believe I overlooked that, but no. But, I'm not really convinced of the power of the Dragon Bloodline.”

While they spoke, the sorcerer used his mind to communicate with the Heart-Bound Worm in Dawn. However, little did he know that the worm in Dawn's body was already subdued by Zeke.

The worm was with Zeke at that time, waiting to backlash against Cesar.

Upon Zeke's order, the Heart-Bound Worm started feeding on Cesar, catching him unguarded.

Cesar coughed up a mouthful of blood as he fell back three steps.

“This can't be happening!” he barked, wiping away the blood on his mouth. “I can't believe you tamed it and are using it for your own! I've underestimated you!”

“As I said, it's not too late for you to surrender. We promise to not dismember your body after you die if you tell us everything.”

Cesar tilted his head, glaring at Zeke antipathically. “Do you really think the Heart-Bound Worm is the only weapon I have? It's time you experience the ace up my sleeve!”

Zeke raised his brows in amusement. “Oh, okay. I can't wait. Don't say I didn't give you a chance to show your trump card.”


Then, Cesar patted the head of the Worm King, whispering, “Worm King, I've put in so much effort and resources to train you. It's your time to shine now. Destroy them, and I'll reward you generously.”

Creek!

Worm King was instantly emboldened. It flapped its wings aggressively, getting ready for combat.

Leveraging its mental energy, the Worm King started draining and wrecking the enemies' mental energy.

Given its extraordinarily strong energy, no one would have survived his blow—not even a warrior. They could easily lose their sanity or even become comatose, but this was not the case for Zeke and the rest.

They were all formidable and highly-trained warriors.

Worm King's attack was futile. It did not even cause them significant damage.

The group looked at the worm, unperturbed.

After some time, Zeke started losing patience. He channeled his mental energy and launched a counterattack.

Despite not going all out, Zeke's half-hearted attack was enough to vanquish Worm King.

Effortlessly, Zeke destroyed Worm King's mentality.

Blood spurted from its mouth, and its wings were rendered immobile as it dropped, half-dead.

Zeke was quick to realize that there was a scent of human blood and flesh coming from Worm King's blood.

It must have eaten a lot of humans. I bet it ate all the people Crippled Williams brought here.
