Back then, Roy was only a middle-rank demon driven by Edrach. But when they met again a few years later, Roy was already on equal footing with Edrach. Edrach could even vaguely feel that Roy's strength was probably about the same as his. How could Edrach not be surprised?
Roy knew that his rapid growth that surpassed that of other demons would definitely attract attention, but he did not panic. "It's nothing. I met Demon King Samael and Mother Lilith in the world I went to previously!"
That's right. Roy had pushed the blame. Anyway, he had indeed met these two demon kings, but as for what happened after he met them, it all depended on Edrach's imagination.
As expected, Edrach's eyes widened when he heard Roy's words. He said in surprise and envy, "No wonder you grew so fast! It seems like you obtained a lot of benefits from the two demon kings! "
Roy let him imagine and changed the topic. "Where are you planning to go?"
With that, he looked at Edrach's dragon mount and asked curiously, "Is that a real dragon?"
Roy had already noticed that Edrach's black dragon mount's eyes were very dull when facing Fat Tiger's covetous gaze. It did not react at all, as though Fat Tiger did not exist.
"That's not a real dragon!" Edrach looked back and said, "That's a puppet dragon, made of Abyss metal, but with the soul of a black dragon added."
"Can I take a look?" Roy asked.
Edrach did not object and gestured for him to do as he pleased, so Roy walked forward and stood in front of the puppet dragon to observe it carefully.
He stretched out his finger and knocked on the outer skin of the puppet dragon. Sure enough, he heard an 'empty' sound, proving that there was no real body inside the dragon, so he could not help but say, "Your puppet dragon manufacturing skills are very superb!"
Indeed, in Roy's Radiation Vision, he could not tell that this puppet dragon was fake at all. This puppet dragon's body emitted intense radiation, which meant that it contained immense energy. When he looked closer, he felt that this puppet dragon was lifelike. Just looking at its appearance, it was no different from a real dragon.
"It's very simple. Just peel off the skin of a Giant Dragon!" Edrach said proudly, "In order to hunt this black dragon, I spent a lot of effort!"
Roy nodded. He found that demons seemed to prefer creatures like black dragons. After Lilith lured Abaddon's soul to fall, she did not create the body of a fallen angel for him but directly stuffed his soul into the body of a black dragon. Now, Edrach's mount was the same. Perhaps black dragons had enough affinity with dark power, and demons were often connected to these dark creatures.
Living black dragons could not enter the Abyss. Just like how demons would cause the power of the world to reject them when they went to other worlds, creatures from other worlds would also be rejected when they entered the Abyss. Moreover, this rejection force would be even stronger. The Abyss had existed for so many years, and during this period, many other creatures had mistakenly entered the Abyss. But the chances of these creatures escaping alive were extremely low because once they entered the Abyss, not only would they be rejected, but they would also have to face countless demons who heard the news. Only a few people could luckily escape back. It was these survivors who spread some superficial information about the Abyss. After suffering shock and fear, their descriptions were often very outrageous, causing people's understanding of the Abyss to be specious.
Edrach's black dragon mount was made of Abyss metal inside, and it was covered with the skin of a black dragon on the outside. Then, with the soul of the black dragon as the energy source, it could perfectly drive this puppet body. After death, creatures would no longer be rejected in the Abyss, and Edrach could ride it everywhere.
Roy looked back at Fat Tiger and then at the black puppet dragon. He had to admit that although the difference in size was not big, the image of a dragon was still more handsome.
Edrach walked over and introduced it to Roy. "Although your hellhound is very good, it feels weird riding a dog … If you want to get such a dragon mount, you can come to me, and I'll help you make it. This is a black dragon that has just entered its youth and is only about four hundred years old. It's not difficult to deal with, but it would be even better if you can get a thousand-year-old dragon. The puppet dragon you make will be even stronger."
"Let's talk about it after I get it!" Roy said. He also knew that thousand-year-old dragons were dragons in their prime and were the backbone of the dragon race. A dragon of this level was probably the limit that high-rank demons could deal with. Dragons that were two to three thousand years old or even five to six thousand years old were considered ancient dragons. Not to mention high-rank demons, even demon lords had to be careful when dealing with such ancient dragons.
Like angels and demons, dragons, titans, elves, and other long-lived races were all powerful races, especially dragons. Unlike demons who needed to devour souls to grow, the strength of dragons grew with age. They had infinite potential from birth, and the older they got, the more they could unleash their potential. They were an enviable and talented race.
Roy planned to go to the Heroes of Might and Magic world of Ashan again. In that world, there were many dragons, and he might encounter them at any time, so it was necessary to understand the situation of dragons in advance.
"Can the souls of dragons be eaten?" Roy asked Edrach.
"Of course they can be eaten, but they don't taste very good!" Edrach shook his head. "The thing these giant reptiles do the most in their lives is sleep. Their feelings and emotions are far less complicated, and they aren't beneficial to the growth of magic power. I think human souls are the most delicious. The shorter the lifespan, the easier it is for them to fear death …"
While speaking, Edrach thought of something and actually stuck out his tongue to lick the row of fangs in his mouth, as though he was savoring the taste.
Then he said, "Actually, if you want the souls of dragons, you don't have to hunt them yourself. No matter what, these giant reptiles are still very powerful, and you need to take some risks to deal with them. If you really want them, I can recommend you to Lord Rogeros. He has many dragon souls in his hands!"
Roy finally understood what Edrach meant. He was planning to rope him in. No wonder this guy was so easy to talk to and had been chatting with him all this time.
Perhaps Edrach was surprised by Roy's growth speed and felt that Roy had great potential, so he wanted to recommend him to Demon Lord Rogeros. This way, Roy and he would be truly 'demons of their own'. But he did not know that Roy's growth speed was faster than he had imagined. Roy was already climbing toward the demon lord level, so Roy had no interest in joining a demon lord.
Therefore, Roy simply shook his head. "Forget it. I have to hunt the souls of dragons myself to have a sense of accomplishment, right?"
Edrach understood what Roy meant and was stunned for a moment. He did not say anything, but his expression was clearly a little ugly.
But Roy did not care what he was thinking. He returned to Fat Tiger's side and jumped onto his back. "Okay, I should go. Goodbye!"
"Wait!" Edrach hurriedly said. "I'm living in Despair City now. If you change your mind, you can contact me through the projection pool! Lord Rogeros is currently at war with another demon lord, and we need a lot of manpower. Believe me, Lord Rogeros won't treat you badly! "
"Okay, I'll remember!" Roy nodded and did not say anything. He patted Fat Tiger, and Fat Tiger turned around and ran back.
On the way back, Roy turned his head to look behind him. Although he did not see Edrach, Roy smiled and whispered, "Interesting. It seems like there are battles between demon lords? I wonder who the demon lord fighting with Rogeros is? "
Fat Tiger could not be bothered to fly for more than two hundred kilometers, so he ran all the way back. But halfway there, Roy suddenly felt something and quickly asked Fat Tiger to stop.
From the system space, Roy took out the Dragon Ball Radar that he had made back then, only to see that on the Dragon Ball Radar, seven dots of light had gathered together and were flashing rhythmically with beeping sounds.
"Did someone gather the Dragon Balls so soon?" Roy frowned. He thought that it might take some time.
The gathering of the Dragon Balls meant that the resonance signal had reached its maximum value. As long as Roy found an Abyss altar, he could adjust the frequency according to this signal and easily locate the Heroes of Might and Magic world. Then he could input magic power into the magic formation on the altar and open a Gate of the Abyss leading to the Heroes of Might and Magic world.
Moreover, this Gate of the Abyss would directly locate the location of the Dragon Balls … This was equivalent to a relatively unconventional summoning process.
"Forget it, if it's a little early then so be it!" Roy thought. Since I have nothing to do now, I might as well go to the Heroes of Might and Magic world. I can also collect some information about space magic …
With this thought, Roy got Fat Tiger to go on his way again. He planned to go back and see if Julia had woken up. If she did, he would bring her along. Two high-rank demons and a titan hellhound. When they caught Xeron, they would beat him to death …
