The demon lords were naturally very happy that Roy could gather the treasures so quickly, so they spared no effort to flatter him for a while.
Of course, Roy would not take such flattery seriously. To be honest, he had always been on guard against these demon lords. Although they were currently imprisoned in Sheogh and had no choice but to ask Roy for help, if he gave them a chance to escape, it would inevitably involve a battle of interests. At that time, these guys would not be so easy to talk to.
Roy had seen the battles between Xeron and his high-rank demons. Not only were there selfishness between demons of the same level, but even Benia and Biara, sisters born from the same demon egg, would fight and hurt each other. It could be said that there was no concept of companions and friends between demons. The only thing that could be maintained well was the relationship between superiors and subordinates.
Since he had obtained the treasures, Dioland and the others naturally urged Roy to contact Urgash. From them, Roy learned that the method to use these two treasures was actually very simple. After equipping the treasures on him, he could feel the frequency of the magic power fluctuations on them as much as possible, and then adjust his soul consciousness and magic power fluctuations to match the treasures.
Roy did not intend to do it in front of Dioland and the others, so he cut off the connection between them and operated alone in the secret room.
It was not difficult to control magic power fluctuations, but it was a little difficult to adjust the frequency of his soul consciousness. Roy sat quietly in the secret room for a long time before gradually mastering the trick.
With the completion of the frequency modulation, Roy gradually fell into a trance. In his perception, the surrounding environment suddenly became hazy, and the flames in the secret room disappeared, completely entering a dark space.
Before Roy could figure out what was going on, the dark space began to change. In the misty darkness, a large number of strange creatures suddenly drilled out. They had distorted bodies and incomparably ugly faces. In Roy's perception, these strange monsters roared and made painful sounds as they pounced at him, frantically pulled at his body, and opened their mouths to bite him.
This situation naturally shocked Roy. He subconsciously wanted to interrupt this communication, but he found that his soul consciousness seemed to have fallen into an incomparably sticky quagmire, and he could not escape at all. The more he struggled, the deeper he sank into this quagmire.
"Get lost!" Roy gritted his teeth and wanted to shake off these monsters biting him, but every time he shook off one, more would pounce on his body. In this strange space, Roy could not use any magic or power to counterattack at all. In just a moment, his entire body was bitten to pieces by the monsters, and there were holes everywhere.
But even so, Roy did not notice any blood flowing out of his body. But every time he was bitten, he would feel a burst of pain, fear, regret, and madness transmitted from the wound to his consciousness.
It's an illusion! But … why is it so real?! Roy struggled while forcing himself to calm down and think about this strange situation.
However, before he could figure it out, these strange and crazy monsters in the darkness suddenly disappeared. Then the dark fog evolved into a boundless sea of flames that surged and instantly enveloped Roy's entire body, burning him desperately.
Under the burning of this sea of flames, incomparably intense pain came. This pain was so intense that it exceeded the limit that Roy could bear, causing him to roar involuntarily.
He could not escape, nor did he have any way to deal with it. He could only passively endure all of this, suffering bitterly in this boundless sea of flames.
After an unknown amount of time, perhaps a century, or perhaps just an instant, the sea of flames suddenly disappeared. But this time, no strange things evolved in the dark space. Instead, it became empty, and there was nothing.
But what followed was a strong sense of emptiness, and the empty space in his field of vision intensified this immense sense of emptiness. Roy felt as though his entire heart had fallen into an endless abyss, and he was sinking and sinking. Then he gradually began to become numb, and his entire mind and soul began to close off.
After the intense sense of emptiness, what followed was an indescribable sense of hunger. The moment this hunger struck, Roy even felt his eyes turn green, and he felt his mouth salivating wildly. But facing the empty dark space, he did not have any food to alleviate his hunger. Under such circumstances, Roy even reached out to grab the dark fog and desperately sent it into his mouth.
In the end, no matter how much fog he swallowed, it could not alleviate his hunger …
Roy was about to go crazy. What the hell is this thing?! Why did the communication with Urgash suddenly turn into such a strange illusion!
Wait, it's not an illusion! Just as the dark space underwent a new round of changes, Roy suddenly realized his true situation.
Dream! This is the dream of the Dragon of Chaos, Urgash! This guy is having a nightmare, and this is the only explanation that can explain it!
According to the legends in the world of Ashan, after the war with Asha, Urgash had been injured and sealed in the core of this planet. He had been sleeping and healing through sleep, and Asha's situation was similar to Urgash's. The two Dragons of Creation had almost both suffered heavy injuries. But the difference was that legend said that Asha had returned to the moon and fallen into a deep sleep there.
Roy communicated with Urgash's will through these two treasures. If Urgash were still awake, then Roy would definitely be able to communicate with his soul consciousness. In fact, a demon lord like him would take the initiative to call and contact him due to his powerful soul.
But this was referring to when Urgash was awake …
It had been a long time since a demon lord had contacted Urgash in the world of Ashan, and no one knew what his current situation was. Roy was the first demon lord in nearly a thousand years to communicate with his soul.
Unfortunately, not only had Urgash fallen into a deep sleep at this time, but he was also having nightmares. The moment Roy connected with his soul, he directly fell into Urgash's dream.
In this dream, all kinds of strange situations could appear. Because of the soul connection, what Urgash saw in the dream, Roy would definitely see, and what Urgash experienced, Roy would definitely experience.
Pain, madness, fear, endless emptiness, and hunger. At this moment, the Dragon of Chaos, Urgash, was suffering and torment. If he did not wake up, Roy would fall into an eternal nightmare like him.
Roy also wanted to break this soul connection, but after trying many times, he found that he could not do it. This was probably because Urgash's soul power was far stronger than Roy's. Once their souls reached the same frequency, this resonance would continue. Unless Urgash took the initiative to remove it, Roy could not stop it by himself.
"Damn it. What's going on?!" Roy was drenched in cold sweat. He knew that he had fallen into a very dangerous situation. He found that even his connection with the system had been cut off, and he could not get any help at all. And the dream in front of him had even evolved into the scene of the final battle between Urgash and Asha. Two enormous dragons, whose faces could not be seen clearly, were biting and fighting each other in this dark space. And this dream was filled with boundless hatred and anger.
There was no need to guess to know that it was Urgash's hatred for Asha. This emotion attacked violently, almost drowning Roy's consciousness.
Roy gritted his teeth and held onto the last trace of clarity in his consciousness. At the same time, he shouted, "Urgash! Urgash! You idiot! Hurry up and wake up! "
Roy had no other choice but to try to wake Urgash up through this shout. After all, he was currently in Urgash's dream, and Urgash could probably hear him.
After shouting dozens of times, a commotion suddenly appeared in the dark space.
"Who … who are you?" An empty voice resounded in this space.
Hearing this voice, Roy finally heaved a sigh of relief. His guess was right. Urgash had indeed responded.
"Wake up, Urgash. You can't continue having nightmares like this!" Roy said loudly.
"I … can't wake up …" Urgash's voice came again, full of pain and struggle. "Something … is … eroding … me …"
"What is it?" Roy asked.
"I … I don't know. It's endless … darkness …"
"Darkness? You're the Dragon of Chaos! "Roy almost cursed." What kind of darkness can erode you?! "
"Because it … is deeper … and more terrifying than darkness …" There was a hint of fear in Urgash's voice. With his words, the dark space began to tremble again, showing signs of becoming stronger.
Sensing that something was wrong, Roy hurriedly shouted, "Send me out and sever the soul connection between us. Maybe I can think of a way to save you!"
"Really?" The turbulent space paused.
"I can't guarantee it, but you have to understand that if I fall into your nightmare, no one else will know your current situation!" Roy said loudly.
The next second, Roy's vision suddenly turned black, and the strange space he had seen earlier instantly disappeared. He hurriedly opened his eyes and found that his surroundings were indeed in a secret room. He knew that he had finally persuaded Urgash to sever the soul connection.
"Damn it!" Roy was covered in cold sweat as he slammed the ground and smashed it into pieces.
He never thought that this seemingly normal soul communication would fall into such a strange situation. Fortunately, although Urgash had fallen into a nightmare, he had not completely fallen and still retained a trace of consciousness. Otherwise, he might not have been able to persuade him.
Before he could finish rejoicing, Urgash's weak voice came in his mind. "Demon, hurry up … and save me …"
Roy's face was gloomy, and he did not respond. Instead, he opened his system interface to check his current situation.
Roy was stunned by what he saw.
Because in his personal attributes page, there was now an additional abnormal status!
[Weak Void Corruption] …
When Roy saw this abnormal status, a bright bolt of lightning seemed to flash across his mind, and he instantly understood.
Void Corruption! F * ck, I was wondering what's going on. It turns out that Void power has already corroded Urgash! All the nightmares he had were caused by the influence of the power of the Void …
