It doesn't seem to be a matter of changing forms. Although the will-o'-the-wisps will be scattered or close together depending on the gender they change into, Jia Zhengjin feels that this is not the fundamental reason.
Why is that?
There are a lot of things in my virtual backpack, but most of them are basic materials.
After much deliberation, the only thing that is special is the fragments of the Five Elements Demon Pills of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth that were released when the monsters in Tiger Roaring Cave were destroyed.
Could it be that these will-o'-the-wisps came close to me for the sake of the demon elixir fragments?
Curiosity can drive people to do things they find strange.
The same goes for Jia Zhengjin, who couldn't suppress his curiosity and took out a demon pill fragment from his virtual backpack.
The strange thing is that these will-o'-the-wisps didn't pay attention to his demon elixir fragments.
Did you think wrongly?
Jia Zhengjin pondered, and then took a look at the water attribute demon elixir fragment in his hand: "Is it because of the attribute problem? The will-o'-wisp probably belongs to the fire attribute, right?"
Thinking of this, he put away the water attribute demon elixir fragments, took out a fire attribute one and held it in his hand.
Sure enough, all the will-o'-the-wisps gathered together in the next moment, hovering in his right hand holding the fragment of the fire attribute demon pill.
At this moment, the fragments of the fire attribute demon pill in his hand began to gradually shrink with the rotation of the will-o'-the-wisp, until finally they disappeared.
"Interesting!" This phenomenon made Jia Zhengjin even more curious, so he took out another fire attribute demon pill fragment and held it in his hand to observe. Anyway, there were many.
The will-o'-the-wisp continued to revolve around his hand, and the demon pill fragments gradually disappeared.
One, two, three...
Until he took out the tenth fire attribute demon elixir fragment, and all of them disappeared in the will-o'-the-wisps, and changes suddenly occurred.
All the will-o'-the-wisps instantly merged into one and turned into a huge fireball in front of him, emitting a strange light.
Immediately afterwards, the fireball began to gradually change, gradually taking on the appearance of a human being.
A minute later, the fireball completely transformed into the appearance of a naked human woman, and the firelight on her body gradually disappeared.
[System] Use the fire attribute demon elixir fragments to promote the evolution of the will-o'-the-wisp, and you will get a low-level demon soldier!
[System] Activate the demon soldier follower interface!
[System] Using demon elixir fragments of the same attribute, you can enlighten targets with certain intelligence and make them evolve into demon soldiers or even more powerful beings.
[System] The ignorant Fire Spirit Demon Soldier evolved successfully! You can perform new operations on it.
"Your Majesty!" The person who transformed into a will-o'-the-wisp in front of her eyes was a very young girl, about 14 years old. She didn't care about her naked appearance at all, and knelt down directly to pay respects, her voice was very soft.
[Ignorant Fire Spirit Demon Soldier] She is a human who died unexpectedly. She wandered in the mountains as a will-o'-the-wisp. After absorbing the energy of the fire attribute demon pill fragments, she evolved into a low-level fire spirit.
【Attribute】Fire
【Race】Ghost
[Skills] Transformation, control of fire (elementary), flying
So this is what these demon pill fragments are used for?
Jia Zhengjin was very surprised. He had previously thought about the use of the demon pill fragments, but it turned out to be used to create demon soldiers?
"What's your name?" He looked at the fire spirit in front of him and asked.
Huo Ling shook his head: "I only know that you are the king, and I don't remember anything else."
"Is that so?" Jia Zhengjin looked at the naked body of a young girl without any reaction.
He is an old monster who has lived for more than a thousand years and has long been used to it. Furthermore, the other party is just a low-level ghost.
Of course, being naked is immoral after all.
He casually took out a set of replacement clothes and threw them over: "Put them on!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Huo Ling dressed up obediently.
Unexpectedly, he gathered herbs at night and got a demon soldier to follow him.
"You don't have a name?"
"Yes, my lord!"
"Then," Jia Zhengjin thought for a few seconds, "you evolved from a will-o'-the-wisp. I don't know what you were like when you were alive. Then just name it Huo'er and make do with it!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the name!" Huo Ling showed a happy expression, "From now on, my subordinate will be called Huo'er."
"What can you do?"
"As long as your Majesty gives you an order, Huo'er will never disobey you!"
"Hmm~" Jia Zhengjin nodded, opened the demon soldier interface to check, and found that there was an evolution experience bar behind Huo'er's attribute bar.
[Huo'er] A low-level demon soldier needs 0 fire attribute demon pill fragments to evolve into a demon soldier captain.
There is also a list next to it, including six stages: [Low-level Demon Soldier], [Demon Soldier Captain], [Elite Little Demon], [Demon General], [Demon King], and [Demon Fairy].
To evolve from a demon soldier to a demon soldier captain, you need 0 demon elixir fragments of the same attribute; to evolve from a captain to an elite little demon, you need 50 demon elixir fragments of the same attribute; to evolve from an elite to a demon general, you need 1 complete demon elixir;
To evolve from Demon King to Demon King, you need 10 complete Demon Pills; to evolve from Demon King to Demon Immortal, you need 100 complete Demon Pills.
A complete demon elixir requires 00 demon elixir fragments of the same attribute to be synthesized.
In other words, as long as he has enough fire-attributed demon elixir fragments, Jia Zhengjin can evolve the low-level demon soldiers in front of him into the strongest demon immortal, although it actually doesn't make much sense for someone who wants to die.
The demon elixir fragments were useless, Jia Zhengjin clicked them, and the fire attribute demon elixir fragments exploded from the Tiger Roar Cave were enough to upgrade Huo'er to the elite little demon stage.
Anyway, I was bored and used all the fire attribute demon pills on her.
Huo'er, who has been upgraded to an elite little demon, doesn't seem to have changed much, but his demonic power is much more refined, and his control of flames has changed from low-level to intermediate, and he has an additional skill of controlling will-o'-wisps.
Not only that, his attributes have also been enhanced several times. In comparison, Huo'er's current strength is probably about the same as that of Huang Pi who was killed by him, and seems to be slightly stronger.
That Huangpi is the demon general of Huroar Cave, but his strength is not too high. After all, the demons of Huroar Cave only live in a small place and their strength is limited.
Huo'er's attributes are probably similar to those of the real elite monsters in this world. After upgrading, his strength should be based on the orthodox monsters, not these weaker regional monsters.
By the way, I am in a gambling situation now, so these demon soldiers and followers are useless, right?
Bringing her along would make it easier for him to reveal his identity and be discovered by Yue Lang, right?
Don't just throw it outside casually.
After much deliberation, I decided to take it back first, since the medicinal materials are already prepared.
Summoned Nuwa and ordered her to teleport herself and Huo'er back together.
After arriving inside the Nuwa, Huo'er was curious to check out the completely unfamiliar and extremely strange future technology. Nuwa came to Jia Zhengjin and kept looking at Huo'er: "Captain, she is...?"
"Huo'er, my demon soldier followers!"
"The demon soldier follows? Insufficient data and cannot be analyzed."
"It's equivalent to a subordinate or a crew member!" Jia Zhengjin explained.
"That's it!" Nuwa understood now, "Then how are you going to arrange her?"
"I don't know!" Jia Zhengjin shrugged, "I also created her accidentally, and I don't know how to deal with it for the time being. You can't bring her with you to affect my gambling. So let's do it! Nuwa, leave her here and leave her to you.
