Perhaps there were many people named Sparda, but if the prefix was Dark Knight and the race was a demon, then it definitely referred to the Devil May Cry world!
The traitor among demons, the Legendary Dark Knight, the father of Dante and Vergil … Roy did not expect to hear this name in the Darksiders world …
Roy had long guessed that with the mobility of demons and angels in various worlds, would they encounter angels or demons from other worlds in a certain world?
Now, there was no need to guess. A living example was in front of him. Julia! This former angel from the Devil May Cry world …
But then again, were there angels in the Devil May Cry world? Hmm, maybe there were. Wasn't Julia one? Moreover, demons and angels had always been like this. As long as one existed, the other would definitely exist.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem? "Julia asked in puzzlement when she noticed the surprised expression on Roy's face.
"Nothing!" Roy shook his head. He knew that Julia had lost her memories of the past. Even if he asked her about the Devil May Cry world, she probably would not be able to remember, so he stopped decisively.
Moreover, he did not know how long he would stay in this Darksiders world, so it was meaningless to ask about the situation in the Devil May Cry world now.
He turned his attention back to the angel souls in his hand. Because he had encountered the End War as soon as he arrived in this world, he did not have the time to examine them carefully even though he had obtained the angel souls. Now that he observed them carefully, he found that, like other souls, the souls of angels also had differences in size and volume. These golden souls looked somewhat similar to the 'noble souls' that Roy had synthesized with the Horadric Cube. This made Roy suddenly understand. Perhaps the noble souls of humans could transform into the holy souls of angels through special methods, so Heaven spared no effort to search for and accept those noble souls.
But … it was definitely much easier for humans to fall than to become noble …
"Are you planning to transform these souls into fallen angels?" Julia saw him observing these angel souls and could not help but say, "Let me remind you that this transformation isn't easy. With your strength as a high-rank demon, I'm afraid it won't be possible!"
"What do you mean?" Roy asked. "Is there anything special about the creation of fallen angels?"
"Of course. Let's not talk about anything else. How do you create a body of flesh and blood for a fallen angel you want to transform?" Julia asked.
"Uh …" Roy was stumped when he heard that.
That's right, under normal circumstances, there must be a "container" to carry things like souls. Otherwise, they will gradually dissipate.
Of course, there were also some exceptions. For example, in some special environments, the soul would not dissipate, and it was possible that as time passed, a part of the memories contained in the soul would be restored. When the memories were restored, the soul would unconsciously create a new image according to the original owner's appearance in the memory. In this way, the soul would be formed! At the same time, some necromancy spells could also turn souls into specters.
Roy had learned this from the lich Cassandra. Speaking of Cassandra, Roy did not know how she was doing in the Pirates of the Caribbean world …
Generally speaking, the best container to carry souls was a body of flesh and blood, including the artificial angels that Roy had killed before. Although they were man-made, their bodies were still flesh and blood. If Roy wanted to try to use these angel souls to transform into fallen angels, the first thing he had to solve was a body that could carry the fallen souls.
This was indeed not an easy matter. In Julia's words, ordinary high-rank demons usually did not consider these things. Only after becoming demon lords or demon kings would they think of ways to transform fallen angels.
Roy had been thinking about how to deal with these angel souls. Now that the path of transforming fallen angels into subordinates was temporarily impossible, Roy thought about it, picked up a low-level angel, and threw it into his mouth.
Roy devoured an angel soul in front of Julia, a fallen angel. No matter how he thought about it, this scene felt a little wrong, but Julia did not have any other expression because to the current her, these angel souls were not her compatriots at all …
As soon as this low-level holy soul entered his mouth, Roy could not help but frown.
He originally thought that this holy soul would taste delicious like those fallen souls or noble souls, but he did not expect it to be completely different!
Spicy! It was burning! Moreover, this kind of spiciness wasn't any kind of fragrant spiciness or numbness, it was just pure spiciness!
This burning feeling was not a simple taste. It was completely different from the wonderful feeling when devouring souls in the past. This holy soul gave Roy the feeling that he had eaten something wrong, and his entire body was protesting!
So after the spiciness, it was discomfort!
Damn it, what's going on? Why does the soul of an angel taste so bad?
And the most ridiculous thing was why did those demons throw their souls into their mouths after killing angels on the battlefield? Don't they find it bad?
Or could it be that demons devouring the souls of angels is just out of revenge?
This was Roy's first time devouring the soul of an angel. The feeling was definitely not wonderful, but he endured it because he remembered that the system had said that after demons devoured the souls of angels, they could increase their holy resistance …
Therefore, after devouring the soul, Roy opened the system interface and checked his attributes.
In the end, he did not find any description of Holy Resistance in his attribute table. After a closer look, he found that only the [Activity] attribute seemed to have increased by 1 attribute point.
Roy did not remember how much it was before. After all, it was easy to ignore an increase of one attribute point.
Roy found it a little strange, so he could not help but ask Julia.
Julia replied, "The main purpose of demons devouring the souls of angels is to destroy angels and reduce their numbers! As for the increase in holy resistance, it's indeed there, but it's really very little, and it can even be said to be negligible. Otherwise, wouldn't a demon king-level existence like His Majesty Samael have long been invincible? You have to know that he has devoured at least ten thousand angel souls … "
With Julia's explanation, Roy finally understood what was going on.
To put it bluntly, the souls of angels actually conflicted with the souls of demons! This was because the souls of angels could be said to be a high aggregation of positive emotions and energy. Moreover, souls often contained a certain amount of holy power. When Roy devoured the souls earlier, the burning and uncomfortable feeling was actually caused by the holy power in them. However, this holy power was much weaker than the dark power of demons, so even though it was uncomfortable, it would not cause any harm to demons.
Moreover, because the magic power of demons came from the negative energy in the souls, the souls of angels were not of much use to demons, and they could not even increase their magic power.
By the same logic, the souls of demons were not of much use to angels. Generally, angels would not devour the souls of demons and would only use powerful holy power to purify them. Therefore, be it angels or demons, after obtaining the souls of the other party, most of them would eliminate them to achieve the goal of reducing the number of the other party.
Of course, this referred to demons who did not have the ability to transform souls. If it were demon kings like Samael, they would transform all the angel souls they obtained into fallen angels. Firstly, they would reduce the number of angels, and secondly, they could use fallen angels to strengthen themselves. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone. The resistance increase from devouring these angel souls was very weak, and they could not be used to increase magic power. Roy should actually be able to use them to transform fallen angels. He could create the bodies of fallen angels through the system, but this way, it was no different from creating life through the system …
Oh, right … I can also use them to feed Fat Tiger …
"However, if you want to find out how Mother Lilith created the nephilim, it's best to keep these angel souls!" Julia guessed Roy's thoughts. "Especially Uriel's soul. The stronger the angel soul, the more helpful it should be to you …" That's true.
That's true. Roy nodded. From the looks of it, the souls of angels and demons could be said to be incompatible, so he was even more curious about how Lilith used angels and demons to create the nephilim.
It had to be known that not only did the soul need a flesh and blood body as a container, but to exert the power of the flesh and blood body, it also needed the soul and body to be compatible. The body was the hardware, and the soul was the driver. The nephilim had the bloodlines of both angels and demons, so did this mean that their souls were also a fusion of angels and demons? Otherwise, how could the nephilim exert such powerful power?
Moreover, if the nephilim were only the failed products of Lilith's experiments with chaos demons, then how powerful would the true chaos demons be?
In addition, the Charred Council in this world was said to exist according to the will of the Creator. Then, was the Creator here the same as the Creator of the Abyss?
There were too many secrets … But Roy knew that as long as he stayed in this Darksiders world for a while and slowly explored, perhaps everything would be answered … Yes, Roy had already planned to stay in this world for a while.
Yes, Roy had already planned to stay in this world for a while. In any case, there was an Abyss Outpost in this world, and he would not be expelled no matter how long he stayed. As a long-lived demon, he had a lot of time to squander …
