After discovering that Sparda's arm was bound by the magic formation and could not be taken away, Roy did not act recklessly. He only squatted down and carefully examined the arm.
After careful observation, Roy immediately found some unexpected things.
The first was that there were no signs of Sparda's arm being cut off, but the fracture was very neat and smooth.
The second strange thing was that this arm had clearly separated from the main body, but it was very … fresh. Not only was there no sign of drying up or death, but he could even feel traces of blood flowing in the arm when he placed his hand on it. But he did not know where the blood flowed to when it flowed through the fracture …
"This situation, it looks like it was cut by … space?" Roy looked at Sparda's arm strangely and felt that it was unbelievable. In other words, the location where the arm was severed is in a wonderful state of spatial balance, and it's still connected to the other parts of the body. Although it's placed here, it's actually only isolated in the concept of space and not really cut off, so the blood in the arm is still flowing?
"Who did it? Also, did they really place Sparda's arm here just to seal him? "
Shaking his head, Roy put the arm back into the magic formation and called Fat Tiger over through the spiritual connection.
After everyone followed Fat Tiger over, Roy waved at Dante and Vergil. "Come and take a look. I did find your father, Sparda. But the bad news is that your father, Sparda, seems to have exploded …"
Dante: "???"
Vergil: "???"
Hearing Roy's words, not only Dante and the others, but even Julia and Benia were very curious, so they gathered around and landed on the magic formation. Then they saw Sparda's arm.
"What's going on? The old man only has an arm left?! Who did it?! "Dante and Vergil were furious.
"Don't worry!" Roy waved his hand and told everyone about his discovery. Only then did Dante and the others calm down, so they squatted down and carefully observed Sparda's arm.
Julia looked for a while and said, "Someone used a special method to cut off Sparda's arm and sealed it here. But this is only the left arm. Does this mean that there are other body parts sealed in the same way and placed elsewhere? Hmm, let me see. Other than this left arm, there should be a right arm, left and right legs, and a torso … "
"It's possible!" Roy nodded. This method is really like the sealed Dark Mage Ekzordia. No wonder Sparda has been missing. It turns out that he was separated and sealed.
Cerberus asked curiously, "But who would do it? It had to be known that there were not many demons in the entire Demon World who could defeat Sparda.
His Majesty Mundus is one of them?
But he has been searching for traces of Sparda in recent years. If he really did it, why would he still be looking for Sparda for revenge? "
No one could answer this question. Nero said impulsively, "No matter what, can't we just undo this seal? Let Sparda out?
He'll tell us the answer. "
Roy nodded.
Just as he was about to squat down and try to see if he could undo this seal?
But at this moment?
Benia suddenly said, "Wait! Something doesn't seem right! "
"Huh?
What's wrong? "Everyone looked at her in confusion.
Benia was squatting at the edge of the magic formation.
After studying the Demonic Runes on the magic array for a while, the Demonic Runes finally disappeared.
After studying them for a while, she frowned and said, "Something's wrong?
This magic formation isn't sealing Sparda's arm.
On the contrary, the magic power in this arm is supplying this magic formation! "
"What do you mean?" Dante did not understand.
Benia straightened her body and pointed at her arm. "It means that this arm is the core energy source of the entire magic formation. Not only are the chains of light binding it here, but they are also continuously extracting the magic power from the arm to supply the magic formation! I just studied the runes in this magic formation. It's not really sealing this arm! "
This time, everyone was stunned.
If it was not sealing the arm, then what was the magic formation sealing?
Roy rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully, "The arm is the core energy source? Could it be that this seal formation was set up by Sparda himself?! "
"It's very possible!" Benia's eyes lit up. "Sparda might be trying to seal something, but he didn't have anything in his hands that could suppress the seal, so he simply used his body parts to seal it!"
With this reminder, Dante and the others suddenly understood. Yes, the demon weapons in Father Sparda's hands were almost all elsewhere. When he disappeared decades ago, the Sword of Sparda turned into the Blade of Strength and sealed Terminigro Tower. Rebellion and Yamato were in the hands of the two brothers, and even the necklace to unseal the Blade of Strength had been given to Sparda's wife, Eva, before falling into the hands of the two brothers. Even the twin spears, Light and Shadow, that Sparda had used in the past, seemed to have been lost, and then somehow fell into Trish's hands … It could be said that Sparda did not have any weapons at all.
Although Roy had never seen Sparda, he could roughly guess some of the abilities Sparda was good at through some of his deeds. He was definitely very good at using sealing formations! Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to seal Mundus, who was stronger than him, back then. Moreover, Sparda later sealed the passage between the Demon World and the human world, allowing humans to survive. Without exception, these deeds proved how superb Sparda's use of sealing power was.
But even so, it was impossible for Sparda to create a sealing formation out of thin air. It had to be known that a sealing formation with complete power required a corresponding 'key'! And such 'keys' were usually items that could carry the magic power of the caster. At that time, Sparda did not have any usable demon creations. If he wanted to complete the sealing formation, he had to create a new one.
But what if the situation was urgent and he did not have time to create a new one?
The answer was right in front of him. Sparda used his own body parts to carry the power of the seal!
This could also explain why the severed arm looked like it had been cut by space instead of being cut off. After all, it was impossible for Sparda to kill himself to create a seal. He had to ensure his own survival in order to supply magic power to the sealing formation, so it was possible that Sparda had used his spatial ability to separate it. At the same time, this arm still maintained a connection with his main body, allowing it to be preserved for a long time and continuously provide magic power.
"In that case, Sparda was actually … self-sealing?" Julia said in astonishment. "Then what did he want to seal? Mundus? "
"No, impossible!" Cerberus shook her head. "His Majesty Mundus was sealed a long time ago. Although the power of the seal has been loosening in recent years, even if Sparda wanted to strengthen the seal, he should have strengthened the original seal. How could he have used his own body parts to create a new sealing formation?"
Indeed, this sealing formation should have appeared after Sparda disappeared. Otherwise, when Dante and the others saw their father, he would have been missing arms and legs. In other words, this seal had only been set up about twenty to thirty years ago, so it was impossible for it to have been set up to seal Mundus.
Moreover, according to Cerberus, Mundus was currently sleeping in the demon king city and would only wake up occasionally. If this seal was really placed on Mundus, then he probably would not even wake up. How could the incident of sending Trish to lure Dante happen? It had to be known that Dante was already an adult at that time, and Sparda had been missing for a long time.
The time did not match up at all, so Cerberus dared to conclude that this sealing formation was definitely not used to seal Mundus.
The group of people discussed here. According to the information they had, they quickly brainstormed some secrets. Roy thought for a while and contacted Rafaro, who was high in the sky outside the rift valley, asking him to scan the surrounding environment of the rift valley from the sky and then send it to him.
Soon, Rafaro replied. Roy took out a projector and projected the surrounding terrain into a virtual image.
"Cerberus, you said that the location of the Despair Prison is near the demon king city, right?" Roy asked. "Where is the demon king city?"
Cerberus curiously observed the image Roy displayed and quickly figured out where everyone was. After recalling for a while, she raised a front claw and pointed. "Here, the demon king city is more than twenty kilometers west of the Despair Prison Rift Valley."
Roy made a location on the image and then contacted Rafaro to fly to a higher position to transmit the image. When a larger map was displayed, Roy outlined five points on the map.
"That's right!" Benia immediately understood what Roy was going to do and said excitedly, "There should be more than one seal formation like this. It should be arranged in the shape of a pentagram with the location of the rift valley as a reference. If we can find a similar seal formation on the other four pentagram points, it's equivalent to finding the other body parts of Sparda."
Roy nodded. "I think there's a reason why Sparda chose this rift valley to place the seal formation. In addition to relying on the large number of whip demons as guards, his true goal might be to construct the pentagram formation. Moreover, if he really wants to seal something in the demon king city, then the demon king city will be in the center of the formation, and the other four pentagram points will be placed around the demon king city. The exact distance won't exceed twenty kilometers!"
As he spoke, Roy outlined the pentagram on the map and then pointed at the other four points. "Is there anything strange or different about these four places?"
Cerberus said in surprise. "It seems to be the case. Without exception, these four points are the lairs of some powerful demon races. Usually, very few demons dare to enter their territories … Perhaps Sparda really set up a seal formation in these places!"
"Won't we know after taking a look?" Roy spread his demon wings and floated into the air. "I'm very curious. If there really is a seal formation with the demon king city as the center and it's not to seal Mundus, then what is Sparda sealing? What did he discover after he disappeared …? "
