With a few "dong" and "dong" sounds, several demons climbed up along the building. These demons were not light in size and tonnage. As soon as they jumped onto the top of the building, the ground shook.
In the air, there were also several winged demons, hovering around the building, staring at Roy on the top of the building with a malicious expression.
A demon with a big mouth and sharp teeth crawled towards Roy first on all fours. His mouth was constantly drooling, and the saliva fell to the ground, which immediately corroded the ground until a burst of green smoke came out.
When he came not far in front of Roy, he stopped and growled at Roy a little slurred: "Despicable... thieves! Those souls are mine! You can't take them away!"
The other demons following behind him, although they didn't make a sound, vaguely surrounded Roy.
This Doomsday Judgment battle is regarded by the demons as a festive carnival. The huge number of souls in the city makes them ecstatic. However, due to the interference of angels, not every demon can immediately kill the enemy. Just devouring the opponent's soul will always delay the operation for various reasons. When Roy used the soul-calling flag to collect the souls that had not been taken away by the demons for the time being, he naturally received the hostility of the demons. They felt that Roy had robbed them.
In the distance, some angels also saw the gathering of demons on the top of the building, but they wisely chose to watch. Compared with the angels, the probability of internal strife among demons was naturally higher.
However, facing the rebuke of these demons, Roy suddenly opened his demon wings. Under the infusion of magic power, the demon runes on the wings lit up, and the fear force field suddenly spread, covering the top of the entire building. Shrouded!
The Frostmourne in his hand was inserted into the ground, and the powerful power of frost bloomed, causing the surrounding temperature to suddenly drop by dozens of degrees. Then Roy raised his head and exposed his fangs towards the demon: "Grab it." Just grab it! Why, are you coming here now to seek death and dedicate your souls to me!?"
On this battlefield, lower-level demons have no status at all. Even if the souls they hunted were robbed, they would not dare to say a word. However, upper-level demons generally serve as commanders and deal with high-level angels. They are unlikely to be Roy stole the soul, so in fact, these demons who came to the scene were all middle-level demons.
Therefore, once Roy's power was released, these demons immediately felt threatened. Not to mention Roy's fear field, the suppressive power of the upper demons revealed from Roy's body now also It became increasingly clear that when the demons felt the oppressive force on Roy's body, they couldn't help but take a few steps back.
They realized that this time they encountered a tough situation. The guy in front of them who stole their souls turned out to be a demon in the process of promotion!
It can be said that Roy is only one step away from a high-level devil. When the last ray of magic power in his devil's heart is compressed, he will be able to become a complete high-level devil. And this group of middle-ranking ones are looking for trouble. Devil, they haven't even touched the threshold for promotion!
The abyss demons are a race that advocates strength. The strict hierarchy has been buried in their blood for millions of years. So when Roy's power bloomed, the demons on the outermost edge took a few steps back and then turned around. After fleeing, the winged demons hovering in the sky also flew away quietly. Only the demons at the top, including the demons drooling with acid, were a little hesitant. .
They are not willing to have a large number of souls stolen by Roy. In their view, although Roy is a difficult person to mess with, he is still a middle-level demon due to the promotion of the middle-level demon. Maybe we can go together. , maybe we can win
At the same time, these demons have a strong jealousy towards Roy. They know very well that once they become a high-ranking demon, their status will be different. This is a promotion that many demons dream of, and they cannot do it yet. , so after discovering Roy's situation, it would be a lie to say that he is not jealous.
From their distorted expressions and eyes, Roy could roughly guess the psychology of these demons, but he didn't care what these demons thought. He had been given the opportunity. If he didn't want to leave, just stay!
Stretching out his left hand, he raised it suddenly, and powerful magic burst out at the feet of the drooling demon. A sharp black icicle suddenly rose into the sky in less than half a second and pierced through In the belly of the salivating demon, this black icicle was dozens of meters high, and it suddenly hung the demon in the air!
Several other demons quickly got out of the way when Roy's magic power broke out. However, what he didn't expect was that Roy waved his hand, and several ice guns formed in the air, flying towards these demons and sealing them up. Their retreat.
"Roar!!!" Realizing the danger, these demons all roared, and also mobilized their magic power to fight back.
One of the demons opened its mouth and spit out a shock wave formed by the power of darkness. The other two demons were ignited with raging flames and shot out explosive fireballs with a wave of their hands.
Unfortunately, their magic was unable to block or offset Roy's ice spear at all. The black ice spear shot by Roy directly broke through their magic, and then stabbed into their bodies. In the body!
Although he is still a mid-level demon, Roy's magic is actually completely different from before. The compressed magic has brought about a qualitative change in magic! It can be said that the magic he casts with the same magic power today is at least twice as powerful as before!
This is the most essential difference between upper-level demons and middle-level demons...
The three demons were pierced by Roy's ice spear at the same time, but it did not stab their hearts. Even so, the three demons also let out huge screams. However, before their voices subsided, Roy A flicker appeared behind them, and Frostmourne in his hand swung violently, with powerful force, instantly cutting three demons in half!
Purple blood flew as these demons paid the price for their hesitation just now.
Reaching out to take away the souls of the three demons, Roy raised his head and looked at the demon pierced in mid-air by the icicle. Although the icicle pierced a big hole in his belly, this guy was not dead yet. The devil's vitality is very strong, but the magic virus contained in the black icicles is rapidly devouring his magic power, leaving him unable to fight back.
"Don't... kill me!" The demon said weakly to Roy: "You are powerful... I am willing to surrender to you!"
This is a choice that many demons usually make when facing demons that are stronger than them. However, this situation rarely occurs between demons of the same level. Such words are said, indicating that this demon is different from the original one. Like Alanya, she was really frightened by Roy.
Roy thought for a while, stretched out his claws and pointed at the demon from a distance, used telekinesis to break the icicle at the top, and released the demon.
The situation here is a little different from that in the abyss world. In the abyss world, Roy had nothing to use for Alanya, and he couldn't trust Alanya's loyalty, so he killed Alanya directly and took it away. passing on her memory.
But right now, this demon doesn't seem to have any memory inheritance worthy of Roy's concern. He might as well treat him as an accomplice to help him collect souls!
If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have killed the other three demons so quickly... There are too many souls here, and the efficiency of Roy alone is too limited.
"I can let you go and let your poor soul continue to stay in your ugly body!" Roy said to the demon who was trying to pull out the remaining icicles from his body: "However, you need to talk to me Sign a devil’s contract!”
"Yes, sir!" The demon grinned in response. He was in pain...
Roy waved his hand, and a devil's contract appeared in front of both parties. The content of this devil's contract was very simple, that is, Roy would let the devil go without killing him, but as a price, all the demon's rights in this world would be sacrificed. Twenty percent of the souls obtained from hunting will be automatically handed over to Roy through the power of the devil's contract!
To put it bluntly, this is actually Roy collecting protection money! As long as this demon is not killed by other angels or enemies in the future, 20% of the soul he gets will be handed over to Roy.
After seeing the contents of the contract, the devil signed his devil's name on it without saying a word.
In this way, the contract is established.
"Can I leave, sir?" the demon asked carefully.
Roy nodded, feeling relieved, he quickly covered his wounds and jumped off the top of the building.
Roy was not surprised at all that the devil would sign the contract so readily, because Roy's practice of collecting protection fees was actually not uncommon among devils. Many high-ranking devils did this, and they exploited him even more. There are great ones.
This is what Sellon did when he was in the world of Invincible Heroes, and he was even more extreme. All the loot belonged to him, and he only distributed a small amount of profits to the demons below, even if he later signed contracts with some high-level demons. After signing the contract, Sellon actually got 50% to 60% of the loot.
In comparison, Roy's protection fee is only 20%, which is quite generous.
Roy is not yet a true high-level demon, so he cannot command these demons to fight for him and reap the spoils of war. However, he can use this method to find more demons to sign devil contracts, which can be regarded as achieving the same goal as a high-level demon in disguise.
By then, not only will he use the soul-calling flag to collect souls, he will also have a large group of contract workers under his command. The speed and efficiency of earning souls will definitely increase a lot...
