After splitting the soul fragment, Roy waited for a while, and the Red Sea Egg created his clone.
A translucent blastocyst with sticky liquid was discharged from the flower bud of the Red Sea Egg. After Roy tore open the membrane of the blastocyst, he could not help but frown when he saw the clone.
It's really … too ugly!
Unlike the first clone he created, this clone now looked very different from Roy himself.
The wings on the back of this clone were not normal demon wings but three pairs of six thin cicada wings. In addition to the transparent parts, there were some strange black patterns on the cicada wings. The clone's eyes were very large and bulged out. If one looked closely, one could see tiny grids on them. They were compound eyes, and two sharp clamp-like mouthparts pierced out of its mouth.
The pair of thick demon horns on its head was no different from Roy's, but its upper limbs were insect limbs. Its left and right palms had become serrated blades with many bristles on them, and it dragged a long demon tail. The clone was about three meters tall, and its figure looked a little hunched, like a monster combining a fly and a praying mantis.
"I …" Roy wanted to curse, but he held back and said with a frown, "This thing is my clone?!"
Benia did not find it strange. "From the looks of it, Beelzebub's shell affected you, so you have the characteristics of insect-type demons. Compared to your bloodline, the bloodline from the demon king seems to be more invasive."
That's right. It seemed like during the integration process of the Red Sea Egg, not only did it absorb the magic power on the shell, but it also absorbed a portion of the bloodline genes carried by the shell. During the integration process, this clone was naturally affected by Beelzebub's bloodline, so its appearance showed insect-type demon characteristics. This was completely inevitable.
Although it was a little ugly, this clone was indeed filled with powerful magic power. Judging from the aura the clone exuded, it was a proper lord-level magic power pressure. In other words, what the Red Sea Egg created this time was a successful fusion.
Roy was a little conflicted. The thought of fusing with such an ugly clone made him feel a little bad.
In fact, from another perspective, this clone was actually quite domineering from the aesthetic standards of the demons. His appearance was ferocious, terrifying, and full of deterrence. He was the 'idol-level' appearance that many demons dreamed of. To put it bluntly, if this clone were thrown elsewhere in the Abyss, it might attract countless female demons to lick him …
But the problem was that it was the aesthetic of a normal demon, not Roy's. Roy was an abnormal demon, so he found it difficult to accept …
With a sigh, Roy pressed the soul fragment into the clone's body. Regardless of whether it was ugly or not, he had to see what abilities this clone had first.
Moreover, it was impossible for him to abandon the magic power in this body. If it really did not work, he could only adjust his appearance through the system.
Roy's soul fragment was injected into the clone, and soon, the clone's body trembled slightly. Not long after, the clone was finally able to move and stood up from the ground.
At the same time, an additional scene suddenly appeared in Roy's vision. How should he put it? It was a super clear … full-body image of himself, and the viewing angle of this image was actually from the clone opposite him!
In other words, he could actually see what the clone was seeing …
This scene was observed from the compound eye structure of the clone. Roy found that this observation method had a very sensitive dynamic capture effect. Any subtle changes in his movements would be clearly fed back by the compound eyes, and to a certain extent, it could even predict his subsequent movements.
After realizing this, Roy was very surprised. It seemed that although the compound eye structure was a little ugly, it had its uniqueness.
Most importantly, Roy's main body could choose whether to accept this additional scene from the perspective of the clone. Moreover, it was the kind where he could move as he pleased. He could look and turn it off whenever he wanted, which made Roy feel much more convenient.
Hmm … In other words, there was actually a connection between the clone and the main body. The reason might be related to the soul fragment. Since it was like this for him, it should be the same for other people who used clones.
Roy thought of when he was in the Van Helsing world, Gabriel might have come so quickly because of his connection with his clone. Not long after he killed Van Helsing, he descended …
Roy put aside the other thoughts in his mind and looked at the clone. He found that after the clone stood up and tried to move his body, he stood there foolishly. Roy could feel the connection between him and the clone, but he could not control the clone to move, so he could only let him stand there foolishly.
"What's going on?" Roy was a little confused. "Why does it look like a fool?"
"Of course!" Benia said from the side. "What he accepted is only a small part of your soul fragment. Your soul is incomplete, so your intelligence naturally can't be high."
Roy understood a little and asked, "In that case, intelligence should be able to slowly increase, right?"
"Yes, it can, but the premise is that you let him move freely!" Benia said. "After leaving the main body, the clone will generally follow his instincts and start acting. He will look for food because he feels hungry, kill because he feels manic, and find a mating partner because he feels burning desire. In short, he will gradually recover his intelligence and slowly gain self-awareness in a series of subsequent activities."
"There should be a way to directly produce intelligence and consciousness, right?" Roy said. "When splitting the soul fragment, just give more, right?"
"Yes, the size of the soul fragment determines how much intelligence and consciousness are given!" Benia said. "If you can split half of your soul and give it to him, he'll be almost no different from the main body when he wakes up. Whether it's thinking or acting, he'll be exactly the same as the main body."
Roy nodded and no longer dwelled on this problem. The taste of splitting the soul fragment was not too good, so Roy did not intend to give much. This little bit was enough to drive this clone.
Although he could not communicate with the clone because of his intelligence, just as Benia had said, the clone still had corresponding instincts. As long as he was stimulated by external conditions, he could respond accordingly. In order to test the abilities of this clone, Roy attacked it under Benia's suggestion.
Then an astonishing scene happened. When Roy swung Frostmourne and slashed at the clone, the clone did not move much at first, but the moment the sword edge was about to touch the clone, the clone actually buzzed and turned into countless!
There were countless of them, so many that it was impossible to count them clearly. Every single one of them was a small bug that looked exactly like his clone. They all had thin wings, but they were much smaller in size.
Each of these small clones was less than a few centimeters long, just like the size of a real fly. The moment Roy's sword slashed down, the clones turned into a dark cloud of insects and scattered with a buzz, causing Roy to slash empty air.
Then, these small clones flew a little further behind and gathered together again, forming the three-meter-tall clone again.
Seeing this scene, for some reason, an idiom suddenly appeared in Roy's mind: A swarm of flies …
"Great!" Seeing this scene, Benia could not help but shout excitedly, "Darling, it seems like this clone of yours has really inherited some of Beelzebub's abilities in addition to magic power! This method of gathering and dispersing insects must be one of Beelzebub's abilities! "
Roy was also inclined to agree with Benia's statement. After all, when the Red Sea Egg created the clone, Roy did not make any settings for it, so the ability displayed by the clone must have a source.
Who else could it be? Naturally, it was Beelzebub's shell …
