[Dark Serpent]
[Combat Power: Tier 1 Superior]
[Skills: Serpent Kiss, Death Constriction, Archery Specialization]
[Description: One of the most depraved races in the Overlord's World.]
As Charles observed the serpentine beings swaying their snake-like hips, his eyes were filled with a tangle of emotions.
In his previous life, he had been a golden-tier serpent Overlord, so he was quite familiar with the Dark Serpents.
He knew all too well that, aside from the legendary succubi, no dark race was as depraved as the Dark Serpents, who went so far as to research and develop training devices to satisfy their carnal desires.
Indeed, that reclining tree over there was nothing more than a training platform, albeit one without the sadistic tools attached. The most crucial aspect was that it was, unbelievably, intended for non-serpent races!
Typically, the Dark Serpents would place their specialized training equipment within their own dark territories. There was only one scenario in which such an apparatus would be found outside...
And that was if the Dark Serpent Queen was in search of a mate.
The mate... would be the one subjected to the training platform tied to the tree. The Dark Serpent Queen would relentlessly violate the target here until the essence extracted was sufficient for her to conceive. Only then would she allow the mate to die, drained of their essence.
In other words, when such a contraption was placed outside, it signified the presence of a Queen within the Dark Serpent tribe.
Charles stroked his smooth chin. Just a few days ago, he had acquired the synthesis formula for the Zerg hero—Medusa. And now, he had encountered these crucial Dark Serpents.
What do they say? Fortune favors the bold!
He murmured to himself, "I just hope this Serpent Queen has royal blood. If not, I'll need to find some resources to help her ascend."
The Medusa formula required two drops of Dark Essence, a royal Dark Serpent Queen, and the Blood of the Overlord. He already had the auxiliary materials, he could only hope this Queen had royal blood.
Catherine, noticing the group of Dark Serpents roaming around, whispered to Charles, "Master, these serpents aren't very strong. Should we take them all out?"
To be honest, she had her eye on that reclining tree.
Just imagine, lying on that thing, getting her ass up and fucked—not only would she feel good, but the master would too, right?
Moreover, judging by the reactions of those serpent women, it was clearly their prized possession. To get her hands on it, they'd need to kill them all!
Hearing this, Charles waited for a moment without taking immediate action. "Be patient. Let's wait a few more hours."
Just a bit longer... Only a few hours remained until the parchment's indicated daylight. By then, they just needed to spot the Serpent Queen.
If she wasn't too powerful, Charles would lead the Zerg squad to slaughter everyone here and forcibly capture the Serpent Queen.
If she was as formidable as he remembered from his past life, he'd wait until daylight to take them all out in one fell swoop!
Yes, the reason dark creatures avoided hunting during the day was that the Continent of the Overlord severely suppressed their powers in daylight. The stronger they were, the harsher the suppression.
As for the Serpent Queen, despite the fact that these serpent people were only around Tier 1 Superior, Charles knew that a royal-blooded Dark Serpent Queen started at Tier 2, and an imperial-blooded one could even start at Tier 3!
This obsession with bloodlines was just too absurd.
The two of them crouched like Voldemort, waiting for three whole hours, witnessing the depravity of the Dark Serpents.
It was truly an all-female orgy... Various outrageous sexual positions and training techniques left Charles penis-hard, and Catherine was parched, yearning for her master to use all those torturous methods on her at once!
There was no denying it—this race knew how to play!
Finally, the mad erotic display came to an end as their Queen grew dissatisfied.
A serpent woman with a purple tail and exotic attire slowly made her way forward. Her face was so perfectly sculpted it seemed to be the work of the heavens, exuding an air of icy elegance and nobility.
She was the Queen of this Dark Serpent tribe, Medusa Queen.
Charles gazed at this stunning serpent beauty, nearly losing himself in her eyes. He was so entranced that he almost got noticed by the powerful Queen.
[Dark Serpent Queen]
[Combat Power: Tier 3 Intermediate]
[Skills: Thousand Serpents Heart-Eating, Serpent Emperor's shadow, Serpent's Kiss Pact]
[Background: The youngest princess of the Serpent Empire's Empress. Disliked and exiled to the Silent Forest after falling into darkness, she bides her time, plotting to overthrow the Serpent Emperor.]
Damn! This Dark Serpent Queen has the bloodline of the Serpent Emperor and is connected to the Serpent Empire!
Charles felt a bit of a headache coming on.
If it were a disgraced royal bloodline Serpent Queen, it wouldn't be so bad—those are usually the offspring of promiscuous serpent Overlords with no real background.
But this one... Alright, this might be his best opportunity to conquer this beautiful serpent.
Biding her time, plotting to overthrow the Serpent Emperor—she's one ruthless serpent!
Medusa sniffed the air lightly and detected traces of an intruder. She had a rough idea of their location.
A male, but likely much weaker than herself.
A look of disdain flickered in Medusa's eyes. Probably some dark creature daring to spy on her territory. Once it saw her, it would be waiting to be slaughtered!
She had no desire to feed at the moment, so she decided to spare the intruder's life for now.
Medusa cast her gaze over the scene of debauchery, eyes filled with contempt. Such filthy bloodlines, only capable of indulging in their own depravity here.
Suddenly, Medusa touched her abdomen.
The deep pain brought a look of boundless hatred to her beautiful face. These were the curses planted by her elder sister, causing her to become this tainted Dark Serpent!
Wretch!
"Hiss hiss hiss! (Your Majesty, would you like to join us? We can make you feel heavenly!)" One of the serpents nearby, seeing their Queen exude a lustful aura, assumed it meant she wanted to join in the orgy. Little did they know, this was the very source of Medusa's pain and hatred.
"How dare such filthy blood come near me!" Medusa roared, her body glowing with a purple aura, instantly killing several nearby Dark Serpents.
A Queen must not be insulted. Even if she sought a royal consort to release her lust, she was a pure Queen loyal to one mate, not a lowly creature like these Dark Serpents who would spread their legs for anyone at any time!
The surrounding serpents looked on in terror, unable to comprehend why their Queen would kill them.
They believed that endless pleasure was the path to advancing their cultivation.
Medusa's predicament was indeed this: she scorned the idea of mating with her subjects, and it was difficult to find a worthy consort in the current darkness.
Moreover, her scheming sister had planted spies among the Dark Serpents to monitor her. Soon, she feared, she would succumb to the lust poison and become a debauched Queen, available to all.
Sometimes Medusa wondered if someone should just come and wipe out these foolish subjects.
Only then could she regain her freedom and find a way to remove the lust poison.
Finally, she could bide her time, waiting for the right moment to kill the Serpent Empress. Take her place!
"Ugh... Lust poison... handling it myself is futile. I need to find a royal consort to relieve my lust." Medusa looked at the reclining tree and felt a desire to punish a male.
Hmm, he's still here?
Medusa sniffed the air again, a bit surprised. She had thought that revealing her presence would scare him off quickly.
Unexpectedly, he merely concealed his aura but continued observing... and he had a small group with him.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up slightly. Through her Serpent Emperor's senses, she realized that he might be strong enough to easily kill her watchers.
So, the Serpent Queen decided to put on a show.
"Oh, no! It hurts so much, my power has dropped to Tier 2 Intermediate!"
"If a strong male dark creature finds me, I, the Queen, will become his tool for release and be... ruined!"
"Damn it, my pure and untouched body, never touched by another, will be taken by someone else?"
In the shadows, Charles watched the distant Queen's antics and shook his head, finding it all too fake.
He glanced at the parchment, there was about an hour left until dawn. He couldn't believe they had been squatting here for over ten hours.
Medusa continued her act, but soon realized he wasn't falling for it at all.
She bit her silver teeth tightly, feeling a bit frustrated.
Damn it, isn't he a pervert?
Isn't he coveting my beauty and wants to fuck me?
I've put myself out there, and you still won't come and fuck me?
After waiting like this, they finally reached... the break of dawn.
