When the scorching air with the pungent smell of sulfur appeared in his nose again, Roy knew that he had returned to the Abyss.
However, the moment the teleportation of the Gate of the Abyss ended, Roy suddenly found that Julia, Benia, and the others were no longer around him, and he was in a strange environment.
There was darkness all around him. There was no gravity, and he could not figure out where he was. Roy thought that he had been teleported to outer space, but then he found that he could still breathe.
Just as he was puzzled, the dark space changed, and a black vortex appeared in front of Roy on the left.
Logically speaking, it was not easy to see another kind of black in the darkness. But in fact, when this black vortex appeared, it was extremely clear in Roy's vision because it was distorted, and he could see a ray of light in the center of the vortex.
"This is … a spatial vortex?" Roy quickly understood.
But before he could think of a way to move over to see what was going on, the vortex disappeared.
Roy was stunned for a moment before he turned his head and looked around. He spread the demon wings on his back and tried to fly in this strange dark space. After flapping his wings for a while, Roy did not know if he had moved or not.
There was no reference in this space, causing Roy's perception to be greatly interfered with. He flew for a while and felt that he seemed to have flown to the location where the spatial vortex appeared, but he could not tell the distance at all.
At this moment, another spatial vortex appeared, but this time, it was under Roy's feet. He did not know if it was the spatial vortex that had appeared before. This time, Roy did not rush to fly over and instead began to count down. Sure enough, after about four seconds, the vortex disappeared.
Next, Roy simply stayed on the spot and observed. Soon, he noticed the strange phenomenon of the spatial vortex here.
The appearance of these spatial vortexes was completely irregular. They could appear in any direction and at any distance, and they usually existed for only three to ten seconds. It could be said to be fleeting. Since he observed multiple spatial vortexes appearing at the same time, Roy realized that these vortexes did not seem to be the same. Different spatial vortexes seemed to be linked to different spaces.
Roy understood a little. After being teleported back by the Gate of the Abyss, he seemed to have gone directly to the lower level of the Abyss.
According to some information Roy obtained, this was probably a place that only demon lords could reach. This place was deeper than the Abyss where high-rank demons lived, but no one knew exactly how deep it was. Compared to the Abyss above, the biggest difference was probably the discontinuity of space.
To put it simply, the space here was broken. Precisely because of this, it was impossible for the vast and boundless land of the Abyss above to appear here. Perhaps there had once been an enormous world here, but because of the shattering of space, this world had been scattered into various fragment spaces and was no longer complete.
And the spatial vortexes that kept appearing should be the entrances to the fragment worlds.
After realizing what was going on, the space magic Roy had learned in Ashan came in handy. Flying here could not produce displacement effects, and only by using the anchor theory of space magic could he pull himself forward.
After finally finding a way to move, Roy waited for a relatively close spatial vortex to appear. He immediately set it as an anchor point and pulled himself in.
After plunging into the vortex, the next second, light appeared in front of Roy, and he appeared in this fragment world.
Flames. This world was full of blazing flames, and an enormous surging magma river flowed wantonly on the plain. But what was strange was that the source of this magma river suddenly appeared on a vertical plane, as though … the magma was flowing out of nothingness, giving off a very strange feeling.
In other words, that should be a spatial rupture, right? Roy looked thoughtfully at the source. He realized that these so-called shattered spaces did not seem to be completely independent spaces. They seemed to have some mysterious connection with other spaces. Otherwise, such a strange situation would not have occurred.
Spreading his wings, Roy flew high in the sky and investigated this fragment world. After flying for a while, he realized that this fragment world was very small.
This world only had a radius of more than forty kilometers, almost the size of an island. He flew to the end in a few minutes, and at the end, Roy saw the spatial rupture. These spatial ruptures were like a circle, enveloping this small world from all directions.
Space bubble! This term immediately appeared in Roy's mind, and he felt that it was extremely vivid.
This small world was a plain without much geological environment, but from the flames and magma, it could be seen that it was still a part of the Abyss.
But the most bizarre thing was that Roy saw creatures in this small world, the only group of monsters.
It was a group of extremely ugly six-legged monsters. They were about two meters long and walked close to the ground. In addition to their front and back limbs, they also had a pair of clawed feet on their ribs. Behind them, they had lizard-like tails. The reason why they were monsters was that they had demon horns on their foreheads, which was proof of their demon bloodline.
Roy wanted to test the strength of these monsters, so he threw an icicle from the air. As a result, a six-legged monster did not even have time to react before it was pierced and nailed to the ground. It could be said to be very weak.
Strangely, although the six-legged monster that Roy killed startled its compatriots, they did not escape in fright after coming back to their senses and looking up at Roy in the air. Instead, they prostrated on the ground and expressed their submission to Roy.
Roy shook his head. He did not want to accept such ugly subordinates. The strength of these six-legged monsters was probably at most at the low-rank demon level. Roy just found it strange that there were still these low-rank demon creatures in the deeper Abyss.
But then he suddenly understood that these demon creatures should be the 'subjects' of the demon lords.
If Roy chose to settle in this fragment world, then there was no doubt that he would become the master of this fragment world, and all the creatures in this fragment world would become his subjects. The reason why these six-legged monsters were so docile was probably because they realized this, so they would submit to the demon lord who entered here.
The scope of this fragment world was too small, so Roy naturally could not choose this place. But just as he was about to leave, he discovered something strange.
Among the six-legged monsters, there was one that only had half a body. But what was strange was that there was no blood flowing out of the part that was cut off at the waist. Not only was it alive, but it could also move freely. With just these two forelimbs, it could walk smoothly like other six-legged monsters.
It gave people the feeling that the lower half of its body, which was cut off in some unknown space, was also moving as it walked, so it could move freely.
Seeing this scene, Roy clicked his tongue in wonder. But it also made him realize that these fragment worlds were probably not fixed and might continue to split! After all, it was impossible for this half-body six-legged monster to have lived for a long time. Its body should have been cut off recently. Based on this situation, Roy felt that this was the only explanation that made sense.
Hmm … Since these fragment spaces can split, is it possible for them to collide and fuse? Otherwise, no matter how big the original world was, it would become smaller and smaller over thousands of years of division. How could it accommodate demon lords living and living?
But here came the problem. If spaces could collide and fuse, it would be like two world fragments in different locations fusing together. Would their spaces still have this strange continuity?
For example, if there were three pieces of wood, A, B, and C, they were originally combined in a sequence. If they were separated individually, they would still be considered a continuous independent entity. However, if the position of their combination was disrupted, and A and C were connected, what would happen to the B section?
The upper half of the six-legged monster was still alive, but if the space fragment where the lower half of its body was merged with another space, would the upper half of its body still be alive? Or would it suddenly spurt out blood and die?
It was too strange. There were really endless strange phenomena in the Abyss.
Roy did not intend to stay here any longer and planned to go out. But when he went out, he did not need to wait for a spatial vortex anymore. Instead, he directly transformed his magic power into space magic to wrap around his entire body and casually found a spatial fault to crash out. With the protection of space magic, he would not be affected by the spatial partition when he crashed out of the spatial fault.
This was also why only demon lords who knew space magic could enter and exit the lower levels of the Abyss …
After leaving, he would naturally return to that dark void space. He could find another entrance to enter the fragment world and find a more suitable territory for himself.
