Authority, this is the only word that Roy can think of right now.
After becoming the Demon Lord, Roy discovered that although there was only a class gap between the Demon Lord and the upper-level demon, they felt like two completely different creatures. From the upper-level demon to the demon lord
, that is a qualitative change, so by the same token, the gap between the Demon Lord and the Demon King should also be ridiculously large.
The demon lord is called a demigod, but the demon king is a real god. As a god-like existence, the demon king must have some extremely powerful and irresistible power. Roy suspected that this might be the so-called authority.
If Roy's guess is correct and the so-called 'Gluttony' ability is Beelzebub's authority, then indeed, he cannot easily obtain such authority from this corpse.
Fortunately, Roy is not greedy and does not have the mentality of looking forward to success. Although he is a little regretful, he will not be so resentful after he reacts.
Next, Roy and Bainiya got up and continued to explore the ruins. Since this was once the palace of the Demon King Beelzebub, Roy guessed that there should be a reason why he chose to live here. In addition to the ruins,
There should be other good things.
Sure enough, during the subsequent exploration, Roy and the others found a rather special mineral deposit.
This kind of mineral deposit is actually in the space around Roy and the others, in the rock walls where Beelzebula eggs grow!
Bainiya just tried to dig out some rock layers and discovered the existence of this mineral deposit. It was a red-red crystal sandwiched in the rock. This crystal was very fine and unevenly distributed among the rock walls.
However, this kind of crystal seems to have the ability to store flames and heat. The heat of the magma flowing through the rock wall is absorbed by these crystals and slowly released, so that the entire space of the underground ruins has a kind of
Thermal effect of constant temperature.
Bainiya recognized this mineral deposit and said: "This should be Flame Stone, which is a relatively rare crystal mineral. Although the heat release in this crystal is constant now, in fact once
Activate it with magic power, and the fire and energy stored in it will be released instantly. It is a very useful tool for demons who are good at using fire magic. It can greatly enhance the use of fire magic.
The power is usually used to create flaming weapons and armor!"
Roy followed what Bainiya said, pinched a handful of fine crystals and injected magic power into them. The next second, Roy's fist exploded with a bright light, and his entire fist was covered with a layer of light.
Surrounded by blazing flames, it burned fiercely.
This change made Roy startled. He quickly threw away the ball of flames and then looked down at his burned hand.
It was obvious that Roy had mastered the Lumen Flame. It was supposed that the damage that fire magic could do to him was not that big now, but he didn't expect that this ball of flames still burned his entire hand to black, causing it to become necrotic.
Roy used his other hand to pull off the burned and necrotic palm, and while allowing the muscle tissue to regenerate, he said to Bainiya in surprise: "This flame is so fierce!? It's hotter than Julia's destructive flames.
Even higher!?"
"It's just an instant burst of power!" Bainiya said: "These flaming stones have been absorbing and storing the heat of the lava underground for thousands of years. Although part of the heat is evenly evaporated, the rest
Part of it has been stored, and the heat accumulated inside it over time is very terrifying. It is normal for the temperature to exceed the temperature of the destructive flames at the moment it explodes. However, this kind of crystal cannot be used as a fire to allow the devil to obtain new flame power.
It can enhance fire magic by using runes or seal-carving magic circles. Weapons and armors made of flame stones are very popular among the Balrogs in the abyss world, because holding such weapons is equivalent to making one's own magic stronger.
And the attack has been raised to a higher level, allowing them to better defeat powerful opponents."
"You mean, we can use this flame stone to make weapons and armor, and then use the weapons and armor to make deals with other demons?" Roy understood what Bainiya meant.
"Well, although for demons, there is basically no concept of trade. Even if you want to exchange souls, you probably won't be able to exchange much. However, you can use barter to exchange for some rare items from other demon lords.
Things!" Bainiya touched the flaming stone rock formations on the rock wall that released warm energy, and said with a pity: "The only problem now is that these flaming stones are not rich ores, the crystals are too fine, and there is no
There is a way to fuse them into larger crystals. In this case, there will be more restrictions during manufacturing..."
"It's probably because of these insect eggs from Beelzebub..." Roy thought for a while and said, "Beelzebub would leave such a large number of insect eggs on this rock wall, probably for the purpose of using Yan Yao.
The idea of using the heat of the stone layer to hatch insect eggs... However, maybe because he suddenly encountered something and left, there was no continuous supply of magic power. These insect eggs had a constant temperature environment, but they could not be hatched, and eventually became
fossil."
"What kind of things happened to Beelzebub that he would suddenly leave behind a corpse containing powerful magic and so many insect eggs? And he hasn't come back for such a long time..." Baini
Ya asked a little confused.
Roy shrugged: "Who knows? It happened so many years ago, there's no point in guessing. It's even possible that He just forgot. After all, for us, people like Beelzebub are the real ones."
To us, these sludges and insect eggs have huge magical power and are a fortune, but to Beelzebub, they are just trivial relics, and they are thrown away..."
"I hope so!" Bainiya didn't hesitate anymore and said: "Then, let's mine the Flame Stone here. Although the quality is not high, it is still a specialty of the territory. Those who are summoned
If the demons come, you have to find something for them to do."
Roy nodded and said nothing more, so the two of them left the ruins and returned to where Dahei was. Dahei had been waiting there obediently. After seeing Roy and the others returning, it carried
The two returned to the surface.
As for the Red Sea Egg, it will be left underground for the time being. There are still many insect egg fossils that have not been digested by the Red Sea Egg. Put them underground. After a while, the Red Sea Egg should be able to work again.
On the surface, Julie and Fat Tiger have been waiting at the entrance of the cave. The previous earthquake in the earth made Julie realize what might have happened underground. If it weren't for realizing that it was released by Roy
If the magic power was suppressed, she would have been extremely anxious. At this time, she was completely relieved after seeing Roy and Bainiya returning successfully.
But then, she discovered Roy's soaring magic power and asked in surprise: "My dear, what happened? Why did your magic power suddenly... increase so much!? Also, your appearance also changed.
Changed..."
So Roy told Julie about what happened underground. When he heard that Roy and the others had found the ruins of the former palace of the Demon King Beelzebub, they also found the remains left by Beelzebub in the ruins.
After the shell, even Julie was extremely surprised.
Julie was following the Demon King Samael at the beginning. She has been following Samael in battles and has never met Beelzebub. However, Beelzebub's name has been heard in many worlds. He is a very famous person.
The devil.
Demon kings and demon kings rarely cooperate together. It seems that everyone adheres to the tacit understanding that the king does not see the king. Of course, demon kings like Lilith are an exception. This succubus queen seems to have an affair with many demon kings.
Looks like...
Julie had never seen Beelzebub, so she was very curious about Beelzebub's appearance, but unfortunately the relic had been absorbed. In the end, Julie could only use Bainiya's description and Roy's current appearance.
Let’s imagine the changed appearance.
This territory has been occupied by others, which is a bit regretful to Roy, but actually think about it, many demon lords have been born in the abyss world over the years, the chance that the fragmented world here has not been occupied by others is too small.
Well, it is really impossible to find that kind of completely original territory, unless you spend a lot of time and patience to search one by one. In comparison, this territory is estimated to be only a few thousand or tens of thousands.
It was occupied by Beelzebub years ago, which is already considered very good.
At least, there are still many things in this territory...
So the next step is how to develop the territory. In addition, Roy also plans to gradually try to contact other demon lords...
