Chapter 252 Abnormal Changes
The price of more than twenty thousand souls was slightly beyond Roy’s expectations.
According to past materializations, he estimated that he would only need a few thousand souls, but he did not expect that it would be calculated in tens of thousands.
However, when he saw the attribute generated by the system, Roy felt that these twenty thousand-plus souls were worth it!
Dragon Slayer Magic:
This ability can activate and deactivate at will to enter the supercharge state. The effect lasts until magic power runs out. When this ability is active, all attacks will deal 200% damage and 300% damage to dragons and dragon subspecies respectively. When this ability is active, the user can consume the direct elemental magic used by dragons to gain 30% increased stamina recovery and magic power recovery speed for thirty minutes. For the improved defensive capabilities against magic elements, this effect is permanent. After consuming the same element many times, the effect gradually weakens.
When using this ability, the user will not suffer from motion sickness when on any form of transportation.
When Roy saw the attributes of this Dragon Slayer Magic, he realized that the system must have searched for the memories of Dragon Slayer Magic in the depths of his mind. This was because this Dragon Slayer Magic’s effect of devouring to strengthen oneself seemed to incline toward Black Dragon Slayer Magic. In the Fairy Tail comic, the Black Dragon, Acnologia, was a super boss throughout. He was extremely powerful! More than four hundred years ago, he was a Dragon Slayer. He was known as the Dragon King, the Wings of Darkness, and the Black Dragon of the Apocalypse. He was the first dragon transformed from a human in history, and he used Black Dragon Slayer Magic. It was a magic that could continually devour the opponents’ strength to become stronger.
Now Roy’s Dragon Slayer Magic ability also had this devouring attribute. It was no wonder that the number of souls spent exceeded Roy’s expectations. This was because the system had adapted and revised this ability.
The magic used in most of the worlds of the Infinite Worlds was virtually the same, and they would not break away from the various elements. In addition to the common elements such as fire, water, earth, wind, light, and dark, you could also subdivide elements into time, space, spirit, curse, blood, wood, metal, death, and so on. Elements formed the foundation of magic, and only magic could fight against magic. This was the truth that the mystic side of the world had always pursued. In a confrontation of magic, what was involved was the confrontation of elements. Anyone who used magic could never say that they were the only ones hitting others and that others could not hit them. To attack was to kill the enemy, while to defend was to protect yourself. This was why Roy had created the Cold Winter Armor. He was thinking of ways to increase his safety.
Now, it was great. Roy did not expect that his Dragon Slayer Magic could actually realize the attribute of devouring to strengthen. This meant that he could continually increase his resistance to elemental powers by challenging elemental dragons and devouring their magic in the future.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough it was foreseeable that the growth of the elemental resistances would not be unlimited, and the effect would be weaker later on, it could at least infinitely approach magic immunity.
Roy reckoned that it was exceedingly difficult to achieve true magic immunity. If your magic was ineffective against an opponent, it did not mean that your opponent was immune to magic. It could only be said that your magic was not strong enough!
The closer to the limit, the more difficult it was. Roy had already faintly noticed some clues when he tried to have his frost power approach absolute zero...
Roy was in a good mood now. Although he could not experiment with the devouring characteristic of the Dragon Slayer Magic for the time being, the increases from it combined with the resistance of the Cold Winter Armor would make those powerful magic less damaging to him.
Those with the thickest armor stacked suffered the worst beatings. This saying was not actually correct because stacking thick armor would turn beatings into a tickle...
Now, Roy could not wait for Arantir to appear again so that his spectral dragon could perform an experiment for him.
Unfortunately, after five days, Arantir did not appear, as though he had really escaped from the Desert of Death. This puzzled Roy.
But what Roy did not know was that after Arantir retreated last time, he realized that he alone might not be able to eliminate Roy, so he left the Desert of Death and went to the kingdom of Heresh to try to convince the other death lords to join him.
With the spectral dragon, the Death Incarnation, as a mount, Arantir quickly returned to Heresh. But when he returned, he heard the news about Ulambus!
During this time, news of Roy destroying a city in the kingdom of Bracada spread quickly.
The news of the destruction of Ulambus shocked all of Bracada. The mages of Bracada quickly informed their neighbors and allies about the emergence of a new powerful demon! Even though they had always been at odds with the necromancers of Heresh, they still informed the kingdom of Heresh in the end and also wanted to use the power of Arantir.
However, when Bracada gathered an army and entered the Desert of Death in an attempt to find Arantir, it did not know that Arantir had already encountered Roy and that his army had been defeated... Although this world had teleportation magic, it actually did not have any good methods of instant communication. Especially when both sides did not know each other’s whereabouts, it was difficult to contact a specific person, especially in the Desert of Death, where it was possible to become lost at any time. Even if Bracada sent a large number of scouts, it would be useless. The scouts would not be able to find Arantir’s whereabouts at all.
However, although he had temporarily missed the mages of Bracada, after knowing this news, Arantir realized that this might be a good opportunity to surround and kill the demon. So he quickly roped in a few death lords and assembled troops to enter the Desert of Death again, heading toward Eeofol.
At the same time, because of the existence of the fallen angel, Julia, by Roy’s side, Arantir had also sent a message to the kingdom of Erathia. Although he had doubts about the current chaos in Erathia, his suspicions had not been confirmed, and he could only keep them to himself for the time being. He believed that the angels would not leave it alone after knowing about the appearance of the fallen angel.
The messenger who delivered the letter was a vampire. This vampire tossed and turned all the way and finally entered Erathia through a teleportation formation. He risked being almost killed by the holy light of the priests and inquisitors. Finally, he completed his mission and delivered the letter to the hands of Queen Isabel of Erathia.
Isabel was a beautiful woman with burgundy hair. She sat on the throne and carefully read the letter sent by Arantir. In the letter, Arantir described Roy’s appearance and his evaluation of his strength in detail. Although Arantir did not know Roy’s demon name, he believed that they should not allow this powerful demon to enter Eeofol. Otherwise, all the races on the entire continent might welcome a demon hero that was difficult to deal with, so he persuaded the kingdom of Erathia to send troops together to intimidate Eeofol and strive to eliminate Roy when he reached the border of Eeofol.
After Isabel finished reading the letter, she pondered for a while before saying to the vampire below with his head lowered, “Although, in my opinion, you Heresh’s necromancers are no different from demons, this old man Arantir is still a bit credible. Since he has said it so carefully, then we, Erathia, will not sit idle!”
With that, she ignored the vampire’s reaction and waved her hand to dismiss him before looking for the Haven’s archbishop, Alaric.
This Archbishop Alaric was also a fanatic-type figure, and he was similar to the Inquisition. He believed in destroying all dark creatures, and he was currently a commander of the front lines that Isabel trusted. After Alaric came in, Isabel handed him the letter and let him take a look.
As soon as he finished reading, Alaric immediately shouted fanatically, “Blasphemy! This is blasphemy! Fallen angels are blasphemy against Elrath (the Dragon of Light)! We must eliminate them!”
This reaction was naturally within Isabel’s expectations, so she nodded. “Then, my archbishop, I’ll let you lead an army to do this. The troops I can give are limited, but with the mages of Bracada and some ugly undead assisting you, you know what to do, right?”
“Of course!” Alaric was holding a cross in his hand, and a savage smile appeared on his face. “In my opinion, it’s a very good ending for those bone scum and demons to be eliminated together...”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlaric then left while Isabel looked at his departing back with a meaningful smile on her face. She turned around and walked into her palace. After dismissing all the attendants, she moved a secret mechanism in the bedroom and then saw the bottom of her bed slowly open to reveal a secret passage leading downward.
Isabel looked around carefully, and after confirming that no one was around, she entered the passage. After walking for some time, she came to an underground prison.
And in this underground prison was actually... a succubus covered in blood!
If Roy were here, he might have recognized that this succubus imprisoned by Isabel was the succubus who had contacted him before: Benia!
After seeing Isabel enter, Benia looked up weakly at Isabel before lowering her head and continuing to remain silent.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk!” Isabel smiled strangely as she came in front of Benia, raised her chin, and said mockingly, “My dear sister, it seems like you’ve already given up resisting!” Benia looked at Isabel and said expressionlessly, “What else do I have to say when I’m in your hands? My sister, Biara, you’ve always been wearing this skin. Don’t tell me you really want to be a tiny human?”
Tole.
Isabel giggled, but at this moment, her voice was completely different from before. Although her voice sounded a little hoarse, it held a seductive charm. After Benia mocked her, flames immediately ignited on her body. The flames burned her body from bottom to top. After they vanished, the queen of the kingdom of Erathia had disappeared. Replacing her was a succubus in armor with flames burning in her eyes!
This succubus was who Benia had told Roy about before-her twin sister, Biara! A powerful high-rank succubus!
Arantir’s suspicions were confirmed. Now, the queen of Erathia, Isabel, was actually disguised by the succubus Biara! Moreover, this fake queen not only held the authority of the kingdom of Erathia, but she had even successfully won over the Haven archbishop, Alaric, to work for her. Under the chaos caused by Biara, the originally powerful human Haven kingdom, Erathia, was already in a divided state.
Due to the help of the angels, Erathia had always been the vanguard in resisting demons. But now that Erathia had split into the Queen faction and the Nephew faction, its power to fight against demons inevitably weakened.
The demons escaping Sheogh and establishing the kingdom of Eeofol on the continent was the greatest evidence...
