Under the stimulation of magic power, this memory crystal gave off a faint light, and then, an image was projected from the crystal.
In the image, there is the image of a demon. This demon is semi-humanoid. The lower body is on all fours and looks like some kind of animal. The upper body is humanoid, with five fingers on both arms. The muscles are not very developed. But strangely, There is no face on this demon's head, but his face is on his chest! At the position of the pectoralis major muscle is a pair of his eyes. These eyes look very big, but they are also very strange, because the pupils in the eyeballs are actually horizontal!
This kind of eyeball with horizontal pupils looks like squinting at first glance, but when you look at it for a while, you will feel particularly uncomfortable, and you always feel that the pupils are staring at you at any time.
On his abdomen, there is a ferocious mouth, with long sharp teeth exposed, staggered on the abdomen. The color of these teeth is different from the skin on his abdomen, so it looks like The demon's entire abdomen was broken into two pieces.
Just looking at the appearance, this demon is indeed quite bluffing... It is a typical monster-like demon.
In addition to this image, there is also a demon's speech sealed in the memory crystal, and the owner of the voice is the voice of the high-ranking demon Aldrach that Roy heard before.
"Cesare, an upper-middle-class demon with phantom demon blood, is good at using illusion magic. He was originally a warrior under the demon lord Rogeros, but he stole one of Lord Rogeros's magic weapons and escaped. He hid in another world. Since he couldn't locate the world he was in, he couldn't pursue him across the world. But it didn't matter. The power of world rejection would send him back. This memory crystal also has another function, which is to sense Roger. Lord Ross’s magic weapon, once Cizer is expelled back to the abyss by the power of the world, the memory crystal will immediately notify you to kill him and bring back his faceless head and the magic weapon!”
After listening to this information, Roy felt like his tail was about to get knotted. How could this mission be like this?
The target of execution is easy to say. The level of the upper-middle class is nothing. It is just that the magic power is much higher than Roy. Give Roy some time and rely on the essence of magic potion. He can catch up, but this demon It turned out to be a phantom demon. In other words, it should be very good at deceiving and playing with illusions. Otherwise, it would be impossible to steal a demon lord's things.
Of course, it's also possible that he took advantage of the demon lord's negligence...
Different from the time in another world, in the abyss world, because there is no repulsion, demons rarely sign devil contracts with demons, and it seems that contracts signed in the abyss world cannot take effect. The demons in the ruling class control resources with powerful force. These resources may be the knowledge inheritance of demons, or they may be souls or something that can strengthen demons, such as the demon's blood in the tempering ground pool. Yes, but because there is no contract, the lower-level demons generally have to work for the demons of the ruling class in exchange for these resources by doing things or fighting for them if they want to obtain these resources. This is a typical employment method.
Of course, with such effectiveness and loyalty, there are very few cases, otherwise there would not have been such a betrayal like Cesare's. Moreover, I'm afraid there are quite a few similar cases, not only with Lord Rogeros, but also with Lord Rogeros. It has appeared in other demon lords, and in order to hunt down these betrayers, the abyss world also gave birth to a unique name, "Execution Demon"!
Roy was not entangled in the specific process of Cizer's betrayal, nor was he interested in knowing it. However, he also saw from this information that the target of his execution this time should be someone with relatively high intelligence.
This kind of shrewd devil is technically a devil... This kind of devil who knows how to take advantage of intelligence is much more difficult to deal with than those devils who only know how to rely on strength to get by.
The most troublesome thing is that this guy actually hid in another world!
Now, Roy finally knows why Adelaide gave him a year to complete this task. This is the reason. There are so many worlds connected to the Gate of the Abyss. Who knows which world he has hidden in
Although Eldrach said in the words he left in the memory crystal that the power of the world would drive him back, didn't Eldrach ever think about what would happen if Cizer signed a contract with a certain summoner in another world? If you make a devil's contract and then never complete it, won't you be able to stay in that world for a long time and never come back? How will you complete the task then
"That's not right. Adelaide is also a high-level demon after all. It is impossible for him to make such a common-sense mistake..." Roy waggled his tail unconsciously and thought: "Or, my previous understanding was wrong. Even if there is a devil's contract, there is a time limit for the devil's stay in another world? For example, how long should it not exceed?"
The more Roy thought about it, the more likely it was. Just like what he had just imagined, if he really signed a devil's contract with a certain summoner and then refused to let the contract be completed, allowing the devil to stay in another world for a long time, then this would The loopholes in the devil's contract are too big!
Judging from Roy's experience in the world of Invincible Heroes, in that kind of high-demon world, demons have no contracts and can almost rely on their own magic power to fight against the power of the world, and thus stay for half a year to a year, then Roy estimates, Even if there is a devil's contract, the time a devil can stay in a world may not exceed two years at most!
The more low-demon the world is, the more likely this time will be shortened. Even if the demon and the summoner fail to complete the contract, the power of the world will force the demon back.
As for whether this means the devil failed to complete the contract, or the summoner failed to complete the contract? Roy had no idea about this. After all, he had never encountered such a situation.
Roy guessed that Edlach gave one year because the demon Cizer should have been escaping for a while. With the power of his intermediate demon, he probably would not dare to escape to those high-demon worlds. The world of high demons generally has powerful races and characters. A mid-level demon would probably have to live cautiously in that kind of world. Putting himself in his shoes, if Roy felt that he was Cizer, he would not be able to escape. Go to this kind of world.
If he can't go to a high-demon world, he can only go to a medium-demon world, because if he wants to extend his stay in a different world as long as possible, he can't choose a low-demon world. The repelling power of such a world is too strong.
If the longest time one can stay in the demonic world is between half a year and a year and a half, then Roy speculates that Cizer may have escaped for half a year at most!
In this way, it can be explained that Edlach gave his one-year mission time.
However, having said that, the magic in the memory crystal can only track the magic weapon of the demon lord Rogeros, but not César himself. Isn't it afraid that César will quietly put the magic weapon in the place where he is staying? Was he buried in another world and then secretly expelled back to the abyss? If he comes back like this, there will be no way to track him.
Moreover, the so-called magic weapon should be a creation of the devil, right? Since it is a demon creation, there should be soul fragments of the demon lord in it. Even if you cross the world, it is impossible that you can't feel your own soul fragments at all, right? Even Gabriel can tear apart time and space when he senses something is wrong with his soul fragment and forcefully descend on it. Even if the demon lord is not as good as the archangel, can he really not even be able to locate it
Unless... unless that magic weapon was not created by the demon lord Rogeros, but snatched from other demons. Without his own soul fragments, of course he couldn't sense it.
After sorting out all the situations that could be deduced from the data, Roy couldn't help but touch the devil's horn on his head. No wonder Adelaide didn't say anything about what might happen when he gave him the task. What to do if you don't meet the target of execution? It seems that he is already dead. Within a year, César will definitely be deported back. As for that magic weapon, it may be very important to César. , otherwise, it would be impossible to risk offending the demon lord to steal it. Then, when he is expelled back, he will probably take it with him and not leave it in another world.
After the demon returns to the abyss world, there will be a cooling-off period. This cooling-off period is because the world's repulsive power remains in the demon's body and needs to be neutralized by the power of the abyss world. Therefore, during this cooling-off period, the demon is It is impossible to go to other worlds through the gate of the abyss immediately.
If he wants to complete his mission, he must find Cizer during this cool-down period!
After understanding how he wanted to complete this task, Roy put away the memory crystal. He casually drew a chain, threaded the crystal into a bracelet, and hung it on his wrist. In this way, when Caesar When you appear in the abyss world, the crystal will light up and he will be able to discover it immediately.
After accepting this mission, Roy will not be able to travel to other worlds for at least this year. He must pay attention to Cizer's return at any time, but it doesn't matter. First, Roy has now successfully become a middle devil. , he also needs to adapt to the situation in the middle-level abyss world. Secondly, he thinks it is best to take advantage of this time to fight with the middle-level and upper-level demons to see the differences between demons of the same level and different levels. , what is the difference and how big is it, so that when the execution task is completed, we will be more confident about facing Cizer.
The best case scenario is that Roy can encounter other phantoms in the middle abyss, which will best deepen his understanding.
Roy didn't want this execution mission to turn into a punishment mission for himself, and he was also very curious about the rewards that Eldrach could give. The other party was a servant of the Demon Lord, and with the Demon Lord as his back, he should be better than others. Those high-level demons have more resources, right? I don’t know what kind of reward he can give...
