Chapter 151 - Finally
Chapter 151 Finally
This black dragon was simply too huge, far beyond the size of average dragons. Furthermore, his strength also exceeded Roy’s understanding of dragons. Roy was actually a little stunned. He remembered that this black dragon, known as the Destroyer, seemed to be transformed from Abaddon, a leader of the angels, but Roy did not know what actually happened in the middle.
While Roy was thinking about if this was the Destroyer’s first appearance, he suddenly heard Gasric’s excited voice. “Those angels were killed! That black dragon seems to be on our side!”
What Gasric said was the group of angels that Roy had encountered earlier, the ones who had gone out to sea to search for traces of human ships. After hearing this, Roy looked in the direction the angels had gone. As expected, he could no longer see the angels in that direction, only some bloodstained feathers floating on the sea along with the waves. The pure white color was very conspicuous in the blue seawater.
The other high-rank demons also noticed this and became excited.
“As expected. Seems like that black dragon belongs to our side!”
“No wonder he has the aura of a demon. This is a fallen black dragon!”
“With an additional demon king-level combat force, those white-winged pigeons are dead meat!”
“Let’s follow and take a look!”
The high-rank demons forgot about the scene when the Destroyer appeared, and they hid in the sea in a sorry state. Their worship of strength immediately gave them a good impression of the Destroyer. One by one, they broke out of the sea and chased after the Destroyer.
Only Roy did not move. After seeing him, Gasric called out to him and asked, “Aren’t you going to take a look?”
“No!” Roy shook his head. “I advise you not to go as well.”
“Why?” Gasric asked in doubt.
“It’s still unclear whether that black dragon is friend or foe!” Roy said. “It’s better to be cautious!”
Gasric hesitated but still said, “Then, I’ll leave first!”
Seeing that he did not listen to his advice, Roy stopped talking and watched the high-rank demons leave one after another.
Roy was not at all surprised by the reaction of these high-rank demons. It could not be helped. Existences at the demon king level were too rare. Even in the Abyss, there were not many of them, and with the demons’ worship of strength, it was very easy for them to have fanatical impulses. Although Demon King Samael led the End War in this world, Roy knew that Samael had not truly participated in the war through his observations during this period. He was only remotely controlling from behind the scenes or simply letting the demons do whatever they wanted. Let alone him, even the few demon lords had rarely taken action.
These high-level combat forces generally dealt with the high-level combat forces of the angels. It was like a game of chess—if the enemy did not move, then I would not move…
The ones who truly led the demons to fight were actually high-rank demons.
Therefore, when the Destroyer appeared in the human world, his vast and surging power was like a natural beacon, naturally attracting demons to follow him like moths to a flame.
It was a good thing to have an additional powerful force on his side, but it was actually not a good thing after calming down and thinking about it carefully!
Among other things, if Demon King Samael appeared at this time, who should the demons listen to?!
Roy instinctively felt that it was not good, so he chose not to follow. Even though the black dragon, the Destroyer, exuded the evil aura of depravation and a demon all over, Roy felt that this fellow might not really be on the demons’ side.
After solving the nuclear submarine at the bottom of the sea, Roy returned to the city and planned to continue harvesting souls. The number of souls he currently possessed was not far from one hundred thousand. Now that he was a high-rank demon, he had to have the style of a high-rank demon, and he had to hurry up and get the Cold Winter Armor.
When Roy returned to the city, he found an unexpected joy.
This unexpected joy was that the high-rank demons and angel army that were occupying this city had all disappeared!
Needless to say, they were chasing after the Destroyer… The thoughts of the demons did not need explaining, and the angel army must have run to fight the Destroyer boss!
The direction the Destroyer had left in was toward the main battlefield that Roy had stayed away from, the capital of the strongest human nation. Not only had it received the care of the armies of the angels and the demons from the beginning of the End War, but it now also had a great demon king like the Destroyer. It was indeed extremely unfortunate.
The main battle zone was about two thousand kilometers away from the seaside city where Roy was. It was a very long distance, so Roy was not worried. Now that the high-rank demons and the angel army were gone, it meant that he was the only remaining high-rank demon in the city!
How could Roy miss such a good opportunity? He immediately summoned all the low-level demons in the city and got them to gather souls for him.
After not having to worry about other high-rank demons, Roy’s efficiency in obtaining souls skyrocketed. In just three days, these low-rank demons collected more than twenty-two thousand souls for Roy, finally allowing him to accumulate a hundred thousand souls.
What was worth mentioning was that as time went by, it became more and more difficult to collect souls because most of these souls came from the surviving humans, and there were fewer and fewer of them. Even if they had survived earlier, they would gradually die one by one due to the lack of food and water or because of the strong radiation.
The large city with millions of people had part of its population escape in the early stages of the war. And during the war, many human souls naturally disappeared because no one had collected them. They reentered the energy cycle and reincarnation of heaven and earth. The rest, the part that could be truly obtained, had been divided up a lot because of the large number of demons. After all, low-level demons also needed to eat.
Even the angels had taken away many souls they needed in the war…
Due to the above reasons, the output of souls in the entire city was not that much. It could be said that it had been quite lucky and not very easy for Roy to be able to gather a hundred thousand souls in this city. The other high-rank demons would have probably only been able to obtain ten to twenty thousand souls, even if they had low-level demons paying tribute…
Roy already counted as one of the richest high-rank demons in the city…
With enough souls, Roy could not wait to materialize the Cold Winter Armor. Fortunately, his judgment had been fairly accurate. After the system used up all the ordinary souls on him, it happened to just exchange for all the attributes of the armor.
And because Roy set this armor to be equipped as a skill, after he used the Horadric Cube to transmute high-quality souls and exchanged for it, there was an additional skill named Summon Armor in his skill column.
(Summon Armor]: Fixed consumption of half of the Dark Cold magic power. Summon the Cold Winter Armor and equip it until the user takes the initiative to remove it.
Cold Winter Armor Attributes:
Indestructible: Can withstand powerful physical attacks. Even if the damage exceeds the limit, it will not be completely destroyed, only shattered.
Self-repairing: When the armor breaks or is damaged, it will automatically absorb magic power to repair. The repair speed depends on the magic power supply speed.
Super Recovery: Provides eleven times the activity recovery speed and magic power recovery speed.
Elemental Resistance: Can resist at least 52% of the damage of all known elements.
The number of souls Roy had possessed was more than 100,000, nearly 110,000. After the system consumed all his souls, the final attributes of the Cold Winter Armor were slightly higher than what Roy had initially set. The magic power recovery speed increased by one time, and the elemental resistance increased by 2%.
This was the advantage of giving attributes to the system for adaptive matching. Roy himself could not calculate the consumption of souls too accurately, but the system could achieve this adaptive matching without waste.
After materializing it, Roy could not wait to use the Summon Armor skill.
The massive amount of magic power in his body was immediately drained by half the moment he used the skill. The next moment, black ice rapidly spread over Roy’s body and formed a domineering and mysterious armor!
This armor had a black metallic texture and shined with a deep, dark light. From the arm guards and leg guards to the armor, it had a layered structure. The armor perfectly fit Roy’s body, tightly wrapping around his muscles, revealing the lines of his muscles.
At his feet, ice crystals condensed into long boots that covered his nails, making Roy finally get out of the awkward situation where he did not have shoes to wear. On both sides of his legs, black ice condensed into wing-like protrusions similar to demon horns, and on each of his knees was a fierce demon face pattern. At his waist was the skirt armor, and it was made of diamond-shaped ice blades that resembled the tail of a phoenix, but at the end was the shape of demon claws.
The arm guards were similar to the leg guards, and the elbows had wing-like protrusions that looked like demon horns. The fingerless gloves allowed Roy to reveal his claws and easily grab objects. His upper body was tightly wrapped in armor, reflecting Roy’s muscular chest and abdomen muscles. The shoulder guards were skull-shaped and curved up from the skull’s mouth.
The helmet also had the same demon style. The helmet fully covered Roy’s face, revealing only a T-shaped gap. In the dark helmet, Roy’s scarlet demon pupils with the pentagrams were visible.
This was a domineering demon-style armor. The moment he equipped it, an uncontrollable strong cold aura emitted from the armor, and in this biting cold aura, fatal radiation was constantly emitting! The ground beneath his feet was freezing, and the remaining green grass quickly turned yellow and withered. It could be said that Roy was simply a walking high-danger item at this moment, and this entire body was proclaiming death…
Roy spread his frost wings and dark wings, flew into the sky, and wantonly burst his magic power. Under the high-speed magic power recovery speed, Roy only felt that he could not use up the power all over his body! The thick gray clouds in the sky above the city were rolling rapidly under his magic power. The water molecules in the air quickly condensed into small, sharp ice blades that then fell from the sky like rain!
The entire city welcomed a black ice blade storm on this day. Countless low-level demons on the ground were bleeding from the ice blade storm. They hugged their heads and hid, only daring to look at the sky through the gaps, looking at the fierce and terrifying figure with incomparable fear.
This was Roy, the Lord of Darkness and Winter…
