Only they can smell the breath of the soul from a long distance away. However, because what they can usually smell is only the smell of low-quality souls, the demons sometimes smell it and don't bother to rush over because they are very lazy.
It was clear that those were the trophies of other demons' fights. They were too far away and there was no way to get there.
But things are different now. A soul that can emit such a rich fragrance must be a high-quality soul. This is definitely a rare good thing in the upper abyss world, so much so that after smelling the fragrance, there are hundreds of people nearby.
A devil is coming!
Driven by such a strong scent of soul, many demons actually come involuntarily. They are simply attracted by the scent, but have no idea how the soul appears.
When Roy rushed over, he discovered that the scent was coming from inside the crater of an extinct volcano.
There are many such volcanoes in the upper abyss world, but most of them are active volcanoes, flowing out of lava at any time. It is precisely because of the existence of these volcanoes that the abyss demon world can form this world where lava and flames coexist.
But similarly, there are also some volcanoes that are extinct volcanoes, but the number of such extinct volcanoes is very small. Now hundreds of various demons are rushing into this extinct volcano, and there are more
More and more are coming.
After Roy swooped down from the air and entered the interior of the volcano, he discovered that there was already a fight here! And the fighting was quite fierce!
The demons who arrived first showed their most ferocious faces and were fighting each other. However, their battlefield was tacitly organized around an... altar!
Roy was shocked, because the first time he saw the altar, he confirmed that it was an artificial structure. This was something he had never seen in the upper abyss world!
You can't expect the lower-level demons here to build houses. In fact, due to their chaotic bloodlines, most of the lower-level demons can't even be classified. Names like Balrog, Succubus, and Shadow Demon cannot be applied to them at all.
On his body, including Roy himself, he could not confirm what kind of demon he was. Many lower-level demons just lived in a hazy way, simply surviving for survival. They could not even make simple tools and weapons.
How is it possible to build buildings?
So when Roy saw this altar, he felt that it was definitely not made by the lower-level demons here!
But the demon world is not a place where humans can survive, so who built this altar? Is it left by those higher-level demons?
The altar looks very big. In addition to the height of the building, the area of the platform at the top is as big as a basketball court. On the circular platform, a huge magic circle is carved in it. In the middle of the magic circle is the rule.
In the middle of the six-pointed star, there is a strange painting that looks like an ouroboros biting its own tail. The outermost circle of the magic circle is full of indecipherable words. Roy can't recognize it.
came out, but his intuition told him that it might be devil's writing.
Now, this magic circle is glowing faintly, and the indecipherable demonic characters and patterns are all flickering and rhythmic, and it makes a slight buzzing sound, as if it has been activated.
The fragrance of the soul came from this magic circle, but strangely, Roy did not see the light group of the high-quality soul. There was nothing in the magic circle at this time.
What's going on? Has the soul not appeared yet? But it hasn't appeared yet, how can there be a fragrance?
Looking at the demons below who were fighting as if they had lost their minds, Roy knew that they might be competing for the ownership of the higher soul that was about to appear. Although Roy smelled the scent of the soul and his mouth was also full of saliva, he
However, he did not join in the fight. Instead, he floated in the air and only observed.
Because Roy hasn't figured out the function of this altar yet, and he won't act rashly until he understands it.
He even stayed a little further away to prevent those demons who were overwhelmed from taking the initiative to come to fight with him...
The situation below can be described as a river of blood. As the fighting progressed, demons continued to die here. Purple demon blood flowed from their corpses and gathered together. It looked so
The devil who survived the fight couldn't wait to join the next fight after devouring his opponent's soul.
In this fight, a ferocious demon is the most eye-catching!
It was a powerful demon with a height of eight meters. He had the largest body size among the demons present. He had four legs and a long tail. His body was covered with thick horny scales. He looked like a pangolin. His upper body was also humanoid, but the light
Looking at the long and curved devil horns on his head, Roy knew that this devil had probably survived in the upper abyss world for decades!
Devil's horns often have rings like growth rings, which are the main basis for judging the devil's age. The power of this old devil is unmatched among the devils, but the most important thing is that in his hands
He was also carrying a weapon, which was a huge stone hammer. The craftsmanship was very rough, but it looked very ferocious and bloody because it was stained with the blood of demons. Moreover, this old demon seemed to have fragmented his own soul.
It was integrated into the weapon, so that this terrifying hammer actually glowed with a black light and had a hardness far beyond imagination.
Roy weighed it up and found that even he couldn't defeat this old demon, so he was even more unwilling to get involved.
Wielding this big stone hammer, this old demon killed everyone. It didn't take long before he stood out from the melee and became the final winner.
He let out a huge roar and stared around at the remaining demons around him. Although these remaining demons were unwilling to accept it, they began to slowly retreat, recognizing the old demon's status as the winner.
This scene is very similar to the time in the incubation place... This is the case in the demon world. When you have more power than other demons, they will recognize your status.
"It's coming!" Roy watched the old devil turn around and take heavy steps, walked up to the altar, and immediately stared intently, wanting to see what would happen.
As a result, Roy almost thought he was dazzled by what happened next.
When the old demon walked onto the altar, the high-quality soul that Roy imagined did not appear! Instead, a black light spot appeared on the altar. With the appearance of this black light spot, the entire magic circle
The light began to shine brightly, and the black light spots in the array slowly expanded, forming a circular black mist. These dark mist enveloped the old devil. After coming into contact with this mist, the old devil's body began to...
The ground becomes empty.
Finally, the old devil's entire body suddenly disappeared, and the light of the magic circle dimmed.
Damn it, he really disappeared! Was he... teleported away!?
Roy looked at the altar in surprise. He felt that the black fog was like the legendary space gate or portal. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the old demon disappeared completely.
The expected high-quality soul was not teleported. Instead, the old demon who won here was teleported away. Considering the whole process before and after, a thought suddenly appeared in Roy's mind: That old demon, he was...
Summon the past!
Yes, summoning! That must be the case. Someone is summoning demons from hell in a special way. The sacrifices offered by the other party are high-quality souls. The demons are fighting each other just to compete for this sacrifice.
The sacrifice! If the winner wants to obtain this sacrifice, he must respond to this call and enter the opposite world.
And the function of this altar is also obvious, it is a medium to communicate with other worlds and the abyss of hell!
Roy suddenly became excited. This was really a huge discovery. No wonder the novels and movies he had read in the past always contained plots such as summoning demons. It turned out that this kind of thing was actually true!
What kind of world will it be like after being summoned? Is it one, two, or many such worlds? Who is the person who summons the demon? What does he intend to do by summoning the demon? The summoned demon must sign a contract with the summoner
?
Wait, wait, wait, Roy has too many questions, but this discovery is really wonderful for Roy, a Gemini character. It means that the boring and monotonous life in hell has finally become interesting.
.
The remaining demons left one after another after the fragrance of their souls disappeared. The empty altar was no longer attractive to them, but Roy stayed. He wanted to wait for a while to see this kind of passage.
How often does the altar summon demons?
In addition, Roy also needs to go to other places to see. Although the number of extinct volcanoes is small, there are always some. He just doesn't know if among those extinct volcanoes, there is something like here that can open the portal.
