Custom Made Demon King

Chapter 62: synthesis

So many souls, for Roy, was totally unexpected.

Sellen is really reckless. Instead, he is led by Roy. When facing the elves with three or four times the strength of his own, he probably thought of retreating as soon as possible, but Sellen This guy, on the other hand, has to try to use magic to turn the tide of the battle. Moreover, his wave of meteor fire was almost aimed at the densest place on the battlefield. Thanks to his magic, Roy would be straightforward. Picked up a big bargain.

The soul of a demon is generally impossible to stay in another world. After being killed, the mark of the Ouroboros will pull the soul of the demon into the abyss, so the souls left on the battlefield are all from the side of the elves. Roy looked at the densely packed souls and made a conservative estimate. He was afraid that there were as many as a thousand, which was equivalent to one-third of the elven side's troops lost under Selron's big move.

Of course Roy will not be polite to this kind of unexpected joy. The soul that comes out of the body usually has a shelf life of about one or two hours. Depending on the size of the soul, the time it takes to dissipate varies. A lot of time has passed since the battle. In Roy's demon vision, some soul light groups have begun to dissipate, so he quickly speeded up and wandered on the battlefield to gather these floating souls into the system. .

Finally, it took a long time to clean up the souls on the battlefield. After opening the system interface, the number of souls held suddenly rose to 1,079!

Damn it! Made it!

Not long ago, I ran out of more than six hundred souls. I didn’t expect to replenish it in a blink of an eye, and even exceeded the original holding amount. For a while, Roy felt like he had won the jackpot. .

"Well, I can't be excited, I have to calculate first, whether these souls belong to me!" Roy quickly calmed down and started thinking: "Now Sellen is not dead, and I am not dead, which shows that the devil is The contract is still in effect, and according to the demon contract, 90% of the spoils must be turned over to Sellen after the battle is won, but literally, this should mean only when the battle is won... The current situation The problem is that Sellen was defeated in this battle! I guess Sellen didn't expect that he would suffer such a big defeat at the time, right?"

Generally speaking, if the devil is defeated, he must run away. There is no chance of reaping the spoils. So when Sellen wrote the demon contract at the time, he did not consider the situation after the defeat and did not make a corresponding response. It explained, but Roy realized that a situation beyond the demon contract had occurred, and that was because of his pretending to be dead. Although he was defeated in this battle, Roy still got a lot of soul loot!

As a result, even Roy himself was a little confused. Now, what should be done in this situation?

After thinking for a while, Roy finally came to the conclusion that now these more than a thousand souls can really be regarded as his own! No need to execute the contract!

Because... Selron is still being hunted down by the elves. Perhaps in the demon contract, this can be regarded as the battle has not ended. Then, this is the same as the previous Roy stealing the soul in the battle. Before the battle was over, the souls collected from the battlefield belonged to him!

Thinking of this, Roy finally breathed a sigh of relief, holding so many souls in his hand. What Roy fears most is to be within the execution range of the demon contract. That would be bad, which means Roy has to hand in more than 900 souls. go out.

Roy doesn’t know whether the souls that have been put into the system will be forcibly taken out of the system when the demon contract is executed, because he has never encountered such a situation before, so he is engaged. I don’t know whether the system has the ability to isolate the influence of the demon contract. If the system can isolate the influence of the demon contract, then Roy is really a treasure. In the future, he can use this isolation function of the system to attack the demon. Cheating by contract!

But he can’t use this opportunity to experiment. After all, once the experiment fails, the system cannot isolate the influence of the demon contract. Then the price he has to pay is too great, so he can only try to try again later, using a smaller number The soul comes to experiment.

Now that he knows that these souls can be used freely at his disposal, Roy can also proceed with the next step.

In fact, whether it is to gain the trust of Selron from the beginning, or to separate Selron and Resca from the beginning, to give Selron a battle book to the elves, and even use the creation of dark fruits to resist damage on the battlefield. Escape from death, the ultimate goal of Roy's plans is to pit Selron to death so that he can tear up the demon contract.

Now, with the help of the chaos on the battlefield, Roy has smoothly escaped Sellen’s control, and there is no need to worry about him forcing himself to give orders, but as long as Sellen is still alive and has not been killed or expelled, the contract will always exist and Effective.

To make the contract invalid, Roy certainly does not want to die by himself unless either party is killed. The longer he has been a demon, the more he understands the importance of the soul. He doesn't want his soul to be damaged after being killed. , So since he didn't want to die, he could only let Sellen die.

Right now, the book of war angered the elves. Selron is being hunted and fleeing. Roy's expected goal has been achieved for most of the time. Next, just take the hands of the elves and the dragons to kill Selron. Then Roy is free!

However, there is a question now, whether Selron will escape under the chase of the elves and dragons. Don’t forget, on another route, there is also the high-ranking demon of Ignatis, Ignatius. There should be a large number of high-level demon troops in Natis. If Selron is smarter and flees to join Ignatis, then maybe the elves and dragons can't help him.

Therefore, Roy felt that he could not completely pin his hopes on the elves and dragons, and he had better intervene when appropriate.

So Roy first opened the system interface and modified his wings to the previous settings.

[Devil's Wings]: Flying at high speed, with a maximum speed of Mach 1!

Yes, he modified the definition of his own Demon Wings. From the simple one to be able to fly, it changed to the speed of sound at the highest speed. In order to achieve this better, he increased his wings again. Some, the curves of the wings have also been modified a bit more smoothly.

Since it was modified on the basis of the original, it did not take much time, and this modification, after Roy chose to save and manifest, paid the price of his forty-six souls!

In fact, this speed can be improved a bit more, but Roy guessed that the faster the flight speed, the higher the soul cost. The speed of one Mach is estimated to be sufficient for the time being, and the price/performance ratio will be good.

After the modification, Roy's wings quickly changed. The length of the wingspan did not change, but the width was increased a bit. When Roy fluttered his wings suddenly, he felt that the power used for flapping was greater than before. After saving effort, Roy observed the direction after rushing to the high altitude. He still remembered the direction Sellen had fled from before, so he hurried away faster.

He did not fly at the speed of sound for the time being, because he was not in a hurry to catch up. Selron wanted to escape the elves' chase completely, fearing that it would take a lot of time, and Roy was completely in time.

While flying in midair, Roy draws on the system interface.

On the newly created blank page, he drew a tetrahedron, then randomly drew some patterns on the tetrahedron, and then began to color it, designing it into a simple box with an open top.

Then Roy began to define the box.

【Hladic Cube】

[Item function]: Use low-quality souls to synthesize high-quality souls!

Yes, this is a design that Roy has only recently thought of. For Roy, low-quality souls are easy to obtain, but low-quality souls can only be used in the system to make static objects and to affect the body. Transformation cannot be used for dynamic skill creation, and the high-quality fallen souls and noble souls used for skill creation are not so easy to obtain, so Roy has been thinking whether there is any way to make low-quality souls. The soul and the soul of high quality undergo mutual transformation.

According to Roy’s understanding of the soul, he felt that such a transformation should be possible. A fallen soul, to put it bluntly, should be a soul with a lot of negative emotions and energy, and a person is deviating from his conscience and his own conscience. After the race has done bad things, it will often cause the soul to produce a lot of negative emotions and energy. When these negative emotions and energy reach a certain level, the soul will be blackened!

In the same way, a noble soul should hold great love for others and be willing to make self-dedication and sacrifice. These are all positive emotions and energy.

In fact, the lower souls actually contain similar emotions and energy. When any creature dies, there will be fear of injury, fear of losing life, hatred of enemies, and The reluctance of family and friends, the longing of lover, etc., but these positive emotions and negative emotions are intertwined. It is hard to say which side has more, but it can only be regarded as a balance, so the soul becomes a low-quality soul.

It’s neither great nor evil, this kind of soul is just ordinary...

Since lower souls contain both emotions and energies, why not extract them to synthesize a high-quality soul?

What Roy wants to make now is such a medium. The name does not matter. Of course, such a box cannot be a real Heradic cube. It can only be regarded as a fake. He originally wanted to call it Pandora. Boxes and the like, but after thinking about it, this kind of synthesis function seems to be called the Heradic Cube more suitable, so that's it.

This is also why Roy dared to make this item with a lot of soul in his hand. After all, he is more confident. In order to reduce consumption as much as possible, Roy has a relatively simple definition of functions.

However, because of this, it took Roy four hundred souls to convert them into manifestation. It seemed that it was not easy to improve the quality of the soul.

The quaint box appeared in his hand, and Roy began to try to put his soul into synthesis.

One, two, three... As a result, when the one hundred and ninety-eight souls were put into the box, a burst of light appeared in the box, indicating that the synthesis was successful.

Roy opened the lid and found two souls floating in the box! One is a fallen soul exuding a thick black mist, and the other is a colorless noble soul with a bright light!

The reason why there are two at a time is because in the box, the positive emotions and energy of the soul are reorganized, and the negative emotions and energy are also reorganized. According to Roy's setting of the Hradek cube, every time he synthesizes, There will be two high-quality souls...
