The courtship period of the demons lasted for about ten days before it ended.
During these ten days, Roy could often hear loud and small sounds coming from afar. These sounds were not like the roars and roars of demons when they fought, but the sounds of joy with a sense of conquest.
As for whether these sounds came from male demons or female demons, Roy did not have the mood to study them.
Roy almost managed to escape this period by sheer force.
It was not that he was pretentious and unwilling to do as the Romans do. But in addition to the difference in aesthetic standards, Roy also felt that the arrival of the demon courtship period seemed to be controlled by some force.
How could there be such a coincidence that all the demons in the Abyss began courtship at the same time? Moreover, regardless of race, they were all affected? Roy felt that this did not seem like a law of nature at all!
There were many things that Roy did not know about the Abyss where demons lived. If it was really a law of nature, then it did not matter if he obeyed. But if some force was really affecting demons, this feeling would not be so comfortable …
For this reason, Roy did some investigation. He stopped some demons passing by his territory and asked them indirectly, obtaining some information.
He learned that when the courtship period arrived, the purple moon on the surface of the Abyss, which was the one he had seen when he was born, would shine more intensely than usual.
There was no sun in the Abyss, and this purple moon shone on the Abyss all the time. In addition to releasing intense light during the courtship period, it also had the effect of spawning demon eggs. Therefore, in the Abyss, demons had always believed that this purple moon was the incarnation of the power of Asmuntis, one of the Seven Great Demon Kings!
In the legends of humans and other races, Asmuntis, this great demon king, was a great demon king in charge of sexual power. But in the Abyss, demons believed that he was in charge of reproduction and reproduction.
No demon had really seen a demon king. It was said that demon kings lived at the lowest level of the Abyss, and even some demon lords and even demon kings were difficult to see. These legends were passed down from generation to generation by demons with higher intelligence, and no one knew if they were true or not.
Even if demons courted, they would go their separate ways after sex, and it was impossible for a true husband and wife situation to exist. The male demons had almost been squeezed dry in these ten days, and their mission was to spread their demon bloodline everywhere. During this process, whether it was using their powerful strength to attract female demons or directly forcing themselves on them, in short, they were undertaking the task of seeding machines.
As for the female demons, they gathered and moved after the ten-day courtship period ended.
Roy was a little curious at that time. He flew in the air and followed behind these female demons to take a look. Then he found that the purpose of these female demons gathering and moving was to find water!
Yes, the Abyss also had water sources, but they were very few. Such water sources were often underground rivers. Roy found that after they found these underground rivers, they would put the demon eggs they laid into these rivers and let the water flow away with the demon eggs.
Thinking of the situation in the birthplace, Roy immediately understood that these underground rivers in the Abyss were probably connected to the sea. The demon eggs would be brought into the sea by the water flow, and then they would finally float to the surface. Under the effect of the tides, they would be pushed to the islands on the surface, which were the birthplaces. This was the entire birth process of demons.
The reason why they used this method to send the demon eggs to the surface was that after demons completed their promotion and entered the lower levels of the Abyss, they could not return to the upper levels of the Abyss because powerful barriers were set up on the connecting paths, which were cracks …
There were many demon eggs laid by female demons, but Roy did not see any viviparous births. This seemed to be because the bloodline of middle-rank demons was not pure enough.
These demon eggs had to experience many dangers during the process of floating to the sea. Perhaps an abnormal flow of the ocean current would stir the demon eggs into crashing into rocks and shattering … With so many demon eggs, Roy did not know how many would die along the way. From this point of view, it was not easy for demons to survive. It was already extremely lucky for them to be born and survive. It was no wonder that demons were born stronger.
Roy also noticed that there seemed to be demons living in the underground rivers. When Roy observed, he saw huge shadows below the water surface more than once!
These creatures would not attack demon eggs, so Roy guessed that they were probably a member of the demons. They might be sea demons!
However, due to the different living environments, these sea demons were probably very different from the Abyss demons. Although Roy had not seen them with his own eyes, just looking at the size of the shadows, he felt that they were not on the same level. The largest demon Roy had seen was the mammoth-like Jascalos. He was seven to eight meters tall when standing, and the shadows in the underground rivers looked to be more than ten meters long …
I wonder if these sea demons can be summoned to other worlds like the Abyss demons. If they can be summoned, I'm afraid they can only be summoned in an aquatic environment, right? Roy thought to himself.
After the courtship period ended, the demons of the middle Abyss finally returned to normal. When the demons that broke into Roy's territory appeared, they were not here to court but to fight.
In the next two months, Roy spent most of his time hunting flame salamanders. These monsters were under great pressure to survive in the middle Abyss, so they had evolved a powerful reproductive ability. After Roy's continuous hunting, he was still able to maintain the same number of more than a thousand demons.
Of course, this was also because Roy did not completely kill them but gave them time to recuperate.
Roy now had more than eight hundred souls in his hands, and this did not include the number he used to make the Magic Energy Growth Potion.
Roy estimated that he had hunted more than thirteen hundred flame salamanders in the past three months. This made Roy a little speechless. This meant that if there were no demons to control these guys, their numbers would have doubled in three months!
The only regrettable thing was that because they were monsters, the souls of these Flame Lizards were the kind with relatively small soul power. Each soul light was only a little bit big.
If a normal low-level soul had a soul power value of ten, then the soul power value of these flame salamanders was only about two or three, which was too far apart.
Therefore, the eight hundred souls in Roy's hands could only match about two hundred souls he collected in the Heroes of Might and Magic world.
Now, Roy's magic energy attribute had increased to five hundred through the Magic Energy Growth Potion, so he planned to use these saved souls to strengthen his combat strength.
The magic power circuit brought about by the frost demon bloodline could transform Roy's magic power into cold power. But so far, Roy's use of this cold power was too simple. In addition to spreading cold air to freeze objects, he only had one move, which was to spit out frost aura from his mouth, which was similar to breathing.
It was not just him. Most of the other middle-rank demons were the same. Their use of magic power was relatively shallow because magic power and magic were two different concepts.
But it did not matter. As long as he continued to strengthen the magic power circuit, Roy would be able to figure out some moves to use magic sooner or later. But thinking about how he would have to deal with illusion demons like César later, Roy had to make some targeted preparations.
Eight hundred flame salamander souls were equivalent to two hundred ordinary low-level souls. Roy did not know if these souls were enough, so he could only add or subtract some defining attributes based on the situation.
Speaking of illusions, the first thing Roy thought of was to increase his mental resistance because these illusions usually acted on the opponent's brain. Increasing mental strength or will was the most basic way to resist.
But this might not necessarily work. Unless Roy could set up complete immunity to illusions, there would always be a chance of falling for them. After all, the amount of resistance only determined how much you could offset.
Therefore, Roy simply changed his train of thought. I don't expect to be able to resist your illusions, but I just want to be able to see through them!
Speaking of seeing through illusions, the first thing Roy thought of was naturally eye techniques …
