Dekan truly didn’t consider himself very dangerous.
Well, what followed was going to be simple.
All he had to do was take down Suit Man, and this magic airship would be entirely safe.
Actually, against a prepared enemy like Suit Man, it was still very difficult for Dekan to outright defeat him in a head-on fight.
But if it were about whether he could trick Suit Man into his demise…
Dekan still had quite a few methods up his sleeve.
Just like now.
Dekan intended to remain in the cockpit and send Suit Man off to the depths.
By now, it was very likely that Suit Man was already on the brink of a mental breakdown, influenced by “Captain De’Erkan” and “Captain De’Erkan.”
All it would take now is another push.
Once his sanity was completely stripped away,
he would be a mere plaything Dekan could toy around with at will.
As for the final card that would destroy Suit Man’s sanity,
Dekan just so happened to have one.
That was the wide-range mental disturbance magic card—
“Three Corpse Frenzy!”
It could be triggered from a distance without needing to lock onto a target, causing the desires deep within the hearts of all present to surge wildly!
Suit Man’s strongest desire at this moment was nothing but the killing intent to annihilate “Captain De’Erkan.”
If that killing intent were amplified further…
Suit Man would go utterly berserk!
The little sanity he had remaining would be incapable of controlling his actions!
With that, Dekan lightly tapped the card, activating the “Three Corpse Frenzy” with enough coverage to envelop the entire cabin.
“Come on, follow the truest desires of your heart…”
…
Inside the cabin,
the air hung heavy, like when a storm was just about to break forth.
Even the light that filtered in through the windows seemed somewhat dim.
Everything except for Suit Man was as if frozen in stillness.
After the hijacking, the passengers were shaken and restless.
Many of the passengers’ faces were ashen white with purple lips, their eyes tightly shut.
As if they were waiting for the verdict, afraid to face it.
Some passengers were nervously staring at Suit Man making a beeline for the three puppet summons.
Fearful of any unexpected occurrence at any moment.
Though there seemed to be a glimmer of opportunity now,
their lives were still fragile like a flickering candle flame that could be extinguished by a sudden gust.
Should Suit Man explode, everyone without the ability to protect themselves would surely die.
And Suit Man’s current state appeared exceedingly terrifying.
It wouldn’t be surprising at all for him to drag everyone down with him to their deaths the next instant.
Among all of them,
only Mia was attentively analyzing what Dekan planned to do.
She knew that the answers would likely be revealed in the next one or two seconds.
But her intuition told her:
If she didn’t prepare,
It was definitely going to get nasty!
After all, this was Dekan’s plan!
Given Dekan wasn’t currently in the cabin,
it was highly likely he would need to cast an area spell to affect the cabin from afar.
That spell might likely be a non-discriminatory attack—a mental magic spell!
In that case, in Dekan’s deck…
Cards with this characteristic…
were likely that “Three Corpse Frenzy!”
Upon reaching this conclusion, the previously composed expression on Mia’s face finally trembled slightly.
Even she had the urge to scold Dekan right now.
But she suppressed it.
Because she needed to adjust her mindset right away and be ready.
Unknown how much more time passed—a hundredth of a second?
At this moment, nothing seemed to have happened.
Yet, this instant marked a turning point in time.
Before this, the cabin was just oppressing, but still normal.
After this…
Something was clearly wrong with all the people on the ship!
“Give it over!”
“Die!”
Some passengers inexplicably went berserk, plundering others’ belongings, while others suddenly erupted in fury, beginning to tussle and fight with those nearby.
Some better-off passengers ravenously devoured their food, disregarding how pig-like their appearances became.
Lovers who gazed deeply at each other began coupling thereafter.
All passengers seemed to have completely forgotten the appropriate fear they should now feel.
Despite the different forms in which each person expressed themselves,
at this moment,
the cabin had turned into an insane asylum…
“….”
Mia buried her head, her hands covering her face.
It seemed as if she were silently reciting something.
Her breathing was uneven as she strained to control her spirit and body.
“Good.”
Mia took a deep exhale and lifted her head, recovering her bright gaze.
She placed her hand on her chest and adjusted her breathing to return to her optimal state.
However, she was soon dumbfounded by the horrific spectacle in the cabin.
Opening and closing her eyes,
how did she end up feeling as if she had reached the Demon Realm?
Mia patted her clean and delicate cheeks, focusing her attention on the direction of “Captain De’Erkan.”
That side was currently the most critical battlefield!
If Dekan failed to cleanly and neatly deal with Suit Man, the entire magic airship would plunge into the crisis completely!
Since Mia had also been interfered with by the “Three Corpse Frenzy” earlier,
she didn’t have time to speculate further on Dekan’s plan.
The best way to deal with a Suit Man who would self-destruct was to use a forced control method to render him unconscious.
If it were Mia, she would certainly try to solve the problem with poison.
Mia silently retrieved her magic card.
If Dekan’s plan had flaws,
then Mia would fill in for Dekan.
However, soon, she put the card away.
Because Suit Man…
was already gone.
Just now, with a snap and in a flash.
Just as “Captain De’Erkan” was about to be approached by Suit Man, it flipped over the window and leapt off the magic airship!
The deranged Suit Man followed suit and jumped off too.
Along with the explosion heard from outside and the rising dazzling explosion of flames.
After falling and exploding on the ground after his death, Suit Man triggered a massive explosion.
The turbulence caused by the explosion’s air current momentarily destabilized the magic airship.
“Unbelievable… this is the number of resuscitated disciples that have died by your hand…”
Mia shook her head and murmured to herself.
She seemed to have thought of something, turning her head to glance outside the window.
At this moment, the magic airship was flying above a plain.
Mia realized that Dekan must have calculated a suitable timeframe based on the map to guide Suit Man’s fall to the ground.
The explosion when Suit Man hit the ground must not have involved villages, fields, or inhabited areas nearby.
And avoiding lakes and forests was essential to ensure Suit Man had no chance to land in the water or get snagged on a tree and survive by chance.
“But… have you even thought about what to do with this mess that remains?”
Mia helplessly scanned the asylum-like scene of the cabin.
Although Dekan chose the most efficient way to take out Suit Man,
this “Three Corpse Frenzy” had caused absolute chaos in the cabin!
She was not entirely inclined to use poison gas to help Dekan deal with the madness in the cabin’s passengers.
Actually, regardless of whether she helped Dekan or not,
there was a good nine out of ten chances that Dekan would end up in jail after disembarking from the magic airship.
Even if Dekan probably wouldn’t be held accountable,
and might even be honored,
he would at least be interrogated and investigated for a considerable period.
Mia absolutely didn’t want to go in with Dekan as an accomplice.
She just wanted to be an ordinary exchange student…
