The moment he returned to the Abyss, when he breathed the unique scorching air and saw the dark environment, Roy suddenly felt that the Abyss seemed to be a little different.
It was not that the environment of the Abyss had changed, but that Roy felt different.
The environment of the Abyss was harsh and even cruel. Even if demons could adapt to this environment, it did not mean that this cruelty did not exist. In the past, Roy always felt very depressed when he was in the Abyss, which was caused by the scorching air and dark environment of this world. But after returning to the Abyss this time, he found that not only did this feeling of depression disappear, but it was also replaced by … a sense of relaxation.
How should he describe it? It was like a person soaking in a bathtub full of hot water after a tiring day, or like a big sword, feeling comfortable all over.
This feeling made Roy feel very strange. He found that the magic power in his body was circulating more smoothly, and the vitality of his muscles seemed to have risen to a higher level. This was a phenomenon that had never happened before.
Is it because of the so-called 'Chosen One of the Abyss' talent? Roy guessed. In that case, my affinity with the Abyss seems to have improved …
To be honest, Roy still did not understand what was going on with this sudden additional talent ability. When he was in the Pirates of the Caribbean world, he did not realize what use this talent had. But now that he returned to the Abyss, the effect immediately showed itself.
Spreading his demon wings, Roy flew into the sky, and Fat Tiger followed closely behind. One demon and one dog returned to their original territory.
Because Roy's frost power had transformed his territory, there was still frost magic power remaining. Although the flames and scorching heat had eroded his territory again because he had been away for a long time, other demons did not occupy this place. When Roy returned, the remaining frost elements nearby began to become active again.
Roy did not stand on ceremony. This time, he used his magic power to freeze his territory. After the black ice appeared, an even more magical scene appeared. The fire elements in the surrounding environment began to actively avoid Roy's territory! Darkness and frost elements began to gather around Roy in large numbers!
This phenomenon had never happened in the past. In the past, Roy's territory had always been eroded by flames and scorching heat. After all, the power of frost was opposed to the environment of the Abyss, and Roy had been using this method to train his magic power. But now, this erosion was gone!
This discovery made Roy touch his demon horns in puzzlement because he knew that this might be caused by the Chosen One talent. The advantage was that without the interference of the fire elements, the power of Roy's frost magic power had normalized in the Abyss. But the disadvantage was that he could no longer use the environment to hone his frost power.
After thinking for a while, Roy simply ignored it. Anyway, with the activity of the frost elements, he could probably make up for it.
Returning to his lair, Roy began to count his gains in the Pirates of the Caribbean world.
The two waves of souls he had harvested the most were from the Black Sea Pirate King's fleet and the Spanish Invincible Fleet. In the battles with these two forces, Roy had harvested more than 23,400 souls in total. The other scattered souls he had harvested were about three to four hundred, adding up to 23,800 souls.
However, although there were many souls, he had also used some. Among them, he had spent the most to create the Osiris Mark, a total of five thousand. Later, he had used about fourteen hundred to modify Frostmourne's expulsion attribute. This way, he only had about seventeen thousand four hundred souls left.
There were also eleven fallen souls … It could be said that his harvest was quite bountiful.
As the power of demons increased, the efficiency of harvesting souls would naturally increase. When he was a low-rank demon, he could only kill one by one to obtain souls. But after becoming a middle-rank demon, with the increase in magic power and magic lethality, the speed of harvesting souls was also large.
However, as the efficiency increased, the growth rate of magic power decreased. There was nothing he could do about it.
Due to being in the Abyss, demons could come into contact with many worlds. Perhaps to humans, the world they lived in was their home, but to demons, it was only one of the thousands of worlds. It was purely a number and not necessarily very precious. Therefore, out of the desire for souls, it could be said that every demon had the heart to destroy the world because it meant that there were many souls in the account.
Of course, wanting to destroy the world was one thing, and being able to do it was another. Without enough strength, it was useless to think too much.
Although Roy had harvested so many souls in the Pirates of the Caribbean world this time, he still stopped in the end. Although existences like Calypso and Davy Jones turned a blind eye to Roy's actions, it was not that they could not do anything about him. They simply felt that it was not cost-effective for them to start a war with Roy, and there were risks, so they let him go. But if Roy greedily wanted to plunder more souls, these people might turn hostile …
Now that he had more than seventeen thousand souls, Roy naturally began to think about how to strengthen and improve his strength again.
In the system interface, his current magic power value was 3,122. This magic power value was already at the level of top-middle-rank demons, but there was still some gap from the level of high-rank demons. Therefore, it was certain that he would set aside a portion of his souls to continue increasing his magic power. But even if his magic power reached the level of high-rank demons, he might not be able to immediately become a high-rank demon. He still needed Roy's demon bloodline to be purified enough.
As his magic power increased, Roy's frost power also increased. This was a sign that his bloodline was continuing to purify. This was the way demons improved. It was simple and crude. All he needed to do was devour enough souls.
After thinking about it, Roy decided to set aside ten thousand souls to make Magic Energy Growth Potions to improve his magic power and purify his bloodline. He planned to use the remaining seven thousand and four hundred souls to improve his defensive abilities.
But considering that the efficiency of his magic power growth was declining step by step, Roy did not make all ten thousand souls into a tube of Magic Energy Growth Potion and consume it. Instead, he used one hundred souls as a bottle and observed the changes in the efficiency of his magic power growth through multiple doses.
At the beginning, a bottle of Magic Energy Growth Potion made from one hundred souls could increase Roy's magic power by 72 points after consuming it. However, when his magic power value increased to 3,500 points, the efficiency dropped again as Roy expected. A bottle of Magic Energy Growth Potion could only increase his magic power by 68 points. After reaching 4,000 points, a bottle of potion could only increase his magic power by 65 points.
At this time, Roy understood why demons pursued high-quality souls. As the magic power increase brought by ordinary souls decreased, the magic power increase brought by devouring high-quality souls like fallen souls was much higher. A fallen soul could be used for nearly a hundred souls, so the efficiency was naturally much higher.
However, high-quality souls like fallen souls were relatively rare, so these souls were more precious to other demons. But for Roy, because he had created the Horadric Cube, he could use ordinary souls to synthesize high-quality fallen souls, so it was not too strange.
Therefore, Roy calmed down and continued to take the Magic Energy Growth Potion. He thought that even if the efficiency decreased, his magic power would still slowly increase. But unexpectedly, when his magic power value reached 5,000, an unexpected situation happened.
He found that the magic power nodes all over his body felt swollen and painful!
After realizing that something might be wrong, Roy immediately stopped taking the potion.
What's going on? Has the magic power that my body can carry reached the limit, or is there another reason?
