Perhaps it was because of the Magic Power Virus talent, but Roy was now very sensitive to the fluctuations of magic power.
When he first entered this underground laboratory and saw César's demon-human body in the culture tank, Roy noticed that there were no traces of magic power in this body.
In terms of time, even if César found the Daughter of the Solar Eclipse and gave birth to a half-human half-demon hybrid, it would take more than ten years for the demon-human body of this hybrid to grow into its current appearance. But when César was in the Abyss, he had abandoned his original body and placed his soul on the Balotan Pillar to return to this world. It was impossible for him to spend more than ten years waiting for this body to slowly grow, so this demon-human body was forcefully matured with the help of black technology.
Precisely because of this, this demon-human body was actually just born not long ago. No matter how powerful the demon-human body was, no matter how possible it was to surpass it, it was impossible for it to violate the laws of reality. Without the accumulation of time, it was impossible for this body to produce magic power out of thin air! César's original body was gone. Even if this body was his child and had his bloodline, allowing him to adapt better after the soul transfer, he could only start from scratch to obtain magic power.
However, Roy then considered a problem. César was originally a top-middle-rank demon, and his original demon body had powerful magic power. Starting from scratch after the soul transfer would inevitably cause him a huge sense of disparity. It was like a millionaire suddenly becoming a penniless beggar. This feeling of disparity was not easy to adapt to. With César's intelligence, it was impossible for him to not consider this after plotting in this world for so long.
This made Roy realize that César probably had some backup plans!
Fat Tiger's sense of smell was very sharp. When Roy and César fought in the Abyss, he had already remembered César's scent. Before César abandoned his body, he had also been active in this laboratory, so as soon as Fat Tiger entered, he smelled César's scent. Roy used the mental connection to let Fat Tiger act alone and search the laboratory to see if there was anything that César had touched and left behind a strong smell.
As for Roy himself, he went forward to argue with César and stall for time.
Similarly, César had just transferred his soul into this body not long ago and still needed some time to adapt, so he cooperated and chatted with Roy about the demon-human body.
Until … Roy felt that it was about time and pointed out the biggest problem with his body, César was horrified to realize that it was terrible!
But at this moment, Fat Tiger had already leaped and landed on the ground, appearing in front of everyone. The middle head held something that looked like a scroll in its mouth as it ran toward Roy.
"No! Put that thing down! " Upon seeing the thing in Fat Tiger's mouth, César, who was in the culture tank, immediately became anxious and roared, "Get that damn dog to put down my thing!"
However, Roy ignored him. He stretched out his hand and took the scroll from Fat Tiger's mouth. Then he rewarded Fat Tiger with three heads. "Good job!"
Roy took the scroll and looked at it. He found that there was a strong smell of blood on it, and the texture and material of the scroll felt very strange.
After opening the scroll, he found something written in scarlet demon characters. After sniffing it, Roy found that the ink used for writing was human blood, so he guessed the material used to make this scroll.
"Human skin and blood. Are you using these things to temporarily preserve souls?" Roy asked César.
"That's right!" César calmed down at this moment. "But what can you do even if you find this thing? There's a seal placed on it by my magic. No one can open it except for me! "
"Is that so?" Roy said thoughtfully, "May I ask? How many souls are sealed in it? "
"Why should I tell you?" César's eyes flickered, and he suddenly changed his mind. "Okay, I'll tell you. But let's make a deal!"
"What deal?" Roy asked.
"There are two thousand high-quality souls sealed in this soul contract!" César's words were shocking. "These souls suffered torture and suffering when they were alive. I can help you remove the seal on them and let you obtain these two thousand souls. But you have to promise me that after you get this soul contract, you have to immediately leave this place and return to the Abyss!"
However, Roy refused without even thinking. "No, I've said it before. If I don't kill you, it'll be very troublesome for me! So you have to die! "
To Roy, César was his mission target. If he could not kill César, he might be the one being hunted down by the execution demons. It was impossible for him to spit out this soul contract with two thousand souls after it fell into his hands. It was already his, so why did he want to make a deal with César? Moreover, after killing César, Roy could also obtain a reward from Rogeros, which was more profitable no matter how he looked at it.
Not to mention there was no enmity between demons, there was no reason to talk about killing each other.
After hearing Roy's words, César immediately roared, "Why?! Aren't you tempted by these two thousand souls?! Without me, you definitely won't be able to open the seal! "
