Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital, Dual Gate dungeon 

“Ada, prepare for the devil summoning sacrificial ritual. I will go destroy the array formations covering the City and the Dual Gate Dungeon. Rest of you guys, you know your orders follow them to the dot,” Arnas ordered the two teams she brought with her for two separate missions. 

Seeing the two team members nod in understanding, Arnas then summoned her grimoire and summoned two blackwood coffin. Opening the coffins Arnas took out two SSS-Rank Corpse Puppets. Then she sacrificed both the corpse puppets to her SSS-rank demonic card Corpse Doppelganger. 

Soon both the SSS-Rank Corpse puppets were swallowed by Arnas’s diamond grimoire and a second later two humanoid figures dressed in black who looked exactly like Arnas’s copy conjured next to her, they were Arnas’s SSS-Rank corpse doppelgangers. 

After being summoned both of Arnas’s Corpse doppelgangers bowed to Arnas showing their obedience to the original and main body. 

The reason Arnas created two SSS-rank Corpse Doppelgangers was that she did not plan to participate in the mission. As a semi-demigod had no place in the battle of demigods. 

That’s right Arnas was just a semi-demigod but thanks to her peculiar card set that she had equipped in her diamond grimoire she could easily take down any renowned demigod. 

Just take the SSS-Rank Corpse Doppelgangers, they were made using SSS-rank Corpse puppets which were made by refining the corpse of a card demigod. 

Thanks to the special method used to refine a corpse into a corpse puppet, the SSS-rank corpse puppet displayed the physical prowess of a peak demigod, someone who was close to understanding transcendence. 

Then by turning the SSS-rank Corpse puppet into her SSS-rank Corpse doppelganger Arnas was sharing her ego gem and grimoire with it. Giving the Corpse doppelganger the physical prowess of a peak demigod and access to her extraordinary rune and cards collection. Making the Corpse doppelganger strong enough to face strong demigod enemies. 

This was why Arnas was able to lead two teams of demigods without anyone questioning her authority in either of the teams. While Arnas’s Corpse Doppelgangers attracted the City and Dual Gate dungeon array, Arnas planned to monitor them from the secret base of the central government on the outskirts of the Southern capital city. 

Following Arnas’ orders, two of Ada’s 12 bodies that would be in charge of the devil-summoning ritual at the Southern Capital and the dual gate dungeon had already split their swarm of 20,000 duplicate devil masks consisting solely of card lords into 2:3 ratio and were awaiting further orders at their mission sight. 

The first half of the swarm of duplicate devil masks consisted of 8000 card lord clones which will be used as sacrifices for the devil summoning sacrificial ritual at the Dual Gate dungeon.

While the second half of the swarm of duplicate devil masks consisted of 12000 card lord clones which will be used as sacrifices for the devil summoning sacrificial ritual at the southern capital.

Despite a swarm as big as 20,000 card lords moving around in the city outskirts, it did not attract any attention thanks to the combination of Ada’s two origin cards, Devil Skull Mask and Mobius Presences. 

The Devil Skull Mask turns whoever wears the duplicate Devil Skull Mask into a perfect copy of Ada, allowing the Devil Skull Mask clones of Ada to satisfy the conditions of Mobius presence and gain its effect. 

Since the swarm of 20,000 card lords had their presence erased their movement did not attract the attention of the authorities. Making use of this the two halves of the swarms had surrounded their respective targets, the Southern Capital and the Dual Gate dungeon. 

While two of Ada’s bodies oversee the devil summoning sacrifice ritual, the other nine of her bodies will try to enter the A-rank dual gate dungeon with the help of her team. 

There was a difference between Ada’s Unlimited Immortal Physique and her Devil Skull mask Swarm when both of them created perfect clone bodies of her. The bodies created using Unlimited Immortal physique could think for themselves, and could be revived once killed. Lastly, unless all of them were killed Ada would not die. I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

As for the clones created by Ada’s origin card Devil Skull Mask, though being her perfect copy they did not have a mind of their own but shared a common mind known as swarm mind, and if killed they cannot be revived. Lastly, if Ada died the whole swarm would die with her. 

The difference between the clone bodies created by Ada’s physique and the clone bodies created by her origin card were few but very detrimental but when used together they made up for each other’s flaws.

The twelve bodies of Ada were all wearing devil skull masks meaning the duplicate devil skull mask swarm of Ada had twelve minds controlling them, vastly growing the size and strength of the swarm compared to the previous time when Ada attacked Sky Blossom City and the temporary base of the southern watch with help of demon worshippers.

As for her original body, it would be in the Central Government’s secret base next to the Southern Capital along with the Arnas’s original. 

After making all the preparations one of the Corpse doppelgangers of Arnas asked one of the visible bodies of Ada, “Is everything ready for the devil summoning sacrificial ritual?” 

One of the nine bodies of Ada acting with her team said, “Half of my devil mask swarm has already surrounded the city and the other half has surrounded the Dual Gate dungeon. Once you break their array formation we can start the sacrifice for the devil summoning ritual.” 

“Good,” Arnas’s doppelganger nodded and reminded Ada, “Field Marshal Heatsend’s eyes are special they can see you despite the Mobius presence so be careful. Our whole plan depends on you entering the A-rank dual gate dungeon and disturbing it from the inside.” 

“Don’t worry leader we got her covered,” Arnas’s team assured her that they would make sure that Ada’s clones enter the dungeon. 

There were two ways to destroy a dungeon, the obvious one was to explore it, find its dungeon core, and destroy it. As for the other way it was directly destroyed with overwhelming power from outside. 

With Field Marshal Heatsend guarding the dual gate dungeon it was impossible to try the second option so was the first option but Arnas and her team felt that they had more chances of success choosing the first option than the second option thanks to Ada’s physique and origin cards.

Unlike in field dungeons, in gate dungeons high-ranking card apprentices cannot force their way in. Therefore, the team’s plan only depended on Ada’s clone bodies entering the Dual Gate dungeon.

“Ada, remember there are two dungeon cores in the dual gate dungeon, one for each gate of the dungeon. make sure to find both the dungeon cores and destroy both of them. 

Because unless you destroy both the cores the dungeon will not be destroyed but one of the gates will temporarily be closed until its destroyed core reforms,” Ada was reminded by her team’s vice-leader. 

“Don’t worry, I will search and destroy both dungeon cores of the dual gate dungeon. You guys have reminded me of this a hundred times now. Just get me into the dungeon already,” Ada was irritated by her team’s leader and vice-leader who repeatedly kept reminding her of the basics of their mission. 

“Ada, don’t be overconfident. Your physique and origin card combo is unmatched but you cannot underestimate this mission. This dual gate dungeon is currently the priority project of the two royal families. Once you enter it, there is no telling what you will find there.

Though there will only be card lords in the dungeon, among the two royal families there are many powerful card lords with unique origin cards, physique, traits, and runes so just don’t blindly be confident like Uri and end up dying in the hands of the royals,” Arnas lectured Ada feeling that she had grown overconfident with her new origin card just like Agent Uri who in the end was kill at the end of the Soldier queen Colleen. 

If only Agent Uri was smarter and more careful he would not have gotten himself trapped inside Colleen’s rule domain with his all three bodies. And he could have avoided his tragic demise.

“Don’t worry, team leader, I know what I am doing. Please, trust me,” this was Ada’s first mission with the team so it was not a surprise that the team was having doubts about her. Yes, she had capable powers but without a good head using these powers of hers she would never be able to show their true potential. 

Being assured by Ada repeatedly, Arnas finally stopped worrying about Ada screwing up her part of the mission and then her two corpse doppelgangers moved out to do their part of the mission.
