Chapter 316: Serren's Memory
The final impact of the Last Judgment will be more than 150 kilometers in radius.
Roy and the others flew desperately all the way to finally get out of the bombardment range of the meteorite, and when the smoke dissipated, Roy spread his wings and levitated high in the air, and could see the huge radial sinkhole in the distance.
The power of this Doomsday Judgment is comparable to the bombing of a nuclear bomb with a yield of tens of thousands of tons, and it really cannot be underestimated......
If Roy hadn't decisively cut off Serren's head with a single sword, allowing him to guide the meteorite to land quickly, then I'm afraid they really wouldn't have had time to run out of this range.
Rao, the flightless ground troops in Roy's army were also completely wiped out in this Doomsday Trial, and those skeleton soldiers, death knights, and most of the low-level demons were all killed when the shockwave hit, and there was nothing left of the scum.
Giovanni and his vampire clan were palpitating at this time, if it weren't for their vampire clan to turn into bats and fly, they were afraid that the entire clan would be wiped out here this time.
"Lord Osiris, what do we do now?" Giovanni asked Roy carefully.
After killing Serren, not only the demons under Roy's command bowed down to him, but even Giovanni and they were equally respectful, maybe Roy himself didn't feel much, but for Giovanni and them, the natives of the Yashan world, the name of this guy Serren is really like thunder, over the years, the demon camp has been under the leadership of Serren, but it is such a demon that makes the Yashan tribes hate and fear, but he was directly killed by Roy.
Now Giovanni feels more and more that he has made the right choice to follow Roy......
Roy didn't answer Giovanni's question for a while, and he floated in mid-air and took out Serren's evil spirit.
Sellen's soul was not needed by the frost sorrow, so Roy chose to devour it directly without hesitation, Sellen's soul seemed to have some consciousness, wailing and being stuffed directly into Roy's mouth, and then, the soul memory reading that the spider demon Alania had used was once again applied to Sellen's soul.
Countless images began to appear in Roy's mind, and flashed quickly, perhaps because Serren's soul was more powerful, and there were quite a lot of root memories in his soul, and they were not fragmentary, these memories showed Serren's life almost completely in front of Roy.
From memory, Roy learned about Serren's age, and so far, this guy has lived four hundred and four abyssal years!
And the time when Serren was promoted to a high-ranking demon seems to be more than a hundred years ago, that is, it took this guy three hundred years to become a high-ranking demon.
Don't think that this time is very long, in fact, in Serren's memory, he has been proud of this for a long time, that is to say, he can grow into a high-ranking demon in six hundred years, and Serren can already be called a genius in the demon group!
Roy actually never dared to mention his age in front of any demons, because it was too exaggerated for him to become a high-ranking demon in just a few years...... This kind of open promotion trajectory can't be viewed with the common sense of any demon at all, which is why Serren couldn't believe it at the time, no matter what, Roy was the little devil back then.
Juliel is the only one who has seen Roy's promotion, but because Juliel is a fallen angel, and when Samael created her, she was directly a fallen angel at the upper demon level, which made her have no idea how old the demon's promotion age was, so she was never surprised.
And Bainia, from the moment she met Roy, she knew that Roy's strength was about to be promoted to the Demon Lord, so even if Roy was really promoted to the Demon Lord this time, she wouldn't be too surprised.
It's just that from this memory of Serren, Roy also got a hint that he would not let people know his age in the future.
Although Serren's memory fragments are very complete, most of the memories are the memories of Serren's killing and plundering souls, and these memories are basically memories left when facing more difficult enemies, in addition, there are also memories of Serren's defeat and escape, perhaps these memories are more profound, and they will be left in the root memory of the soul.
However, Serren's clearest memory is probably the memory of the last time he was cheated by Roy, in this memory, when Serren was beaten to death by several dragons, Roy's small figure in the sky looked coldly at the picture below, which was particularly clear and appeared repeatedly! It's no wonder that Serren is obsessed with this, and in all his memories, this is probably the worst he's ever been cheated on...... This is indeed a disgrace.
On the contrary, this time after he was killed by Roy, he didn't have any memory left, it is estimated that he died too quickly and did not have time to recall......
After looking at it for a while, Roy finally found the memory he was looking for the most.
A memory about the demon Lord Cabellus, Roy clearly "saw" Cabellus's figure from Seren's memory, and the whole process of his allegiance to Cabellus.
From his memory, Roy learned that although Serren was loyal to Cabellus, it was because Cabellus promised him many benefits and benefits, but deep in Serren's heart, there was no trace of latent ambition.
It seems that every high-ranking demon whose strength is close to the demon lord will have similar emotions when facing the demon lord, on the one hand, he is afraid of the power of the demon lord, and on the other hand, he wants to become a demon lord as well.
And among the many benefits that Cabruses promised to Serren, it was to help him become a true demon lord!
Cabellus tells Serren that as long as he can be loyal and complete all the plans for Cabelus, then Cabelus will give Serren a trace of the Demon Lord's Soul to help him complete his ascension!
This is quite an important piece of information for Roy.
Because if you want to become a real demon lord, you not only need to accumulate enough magic power to complete the control of space power, but there seems to be a rather important step, and that is the ritual! The Ritual of Ascension!
For a long time, the promotion of demons has a very important relationship with their own bloodline, and while constantly refining their own bloodline, it is also a process of refining magic power, from the lower to the middle, from the middle to the upper, it is like this, and from the upper demon to the demigod-level demon lord, it is a leapfrog sublimation process, in this process, what is needed is the promotion ceremony.
This kind of promotion ceremony, for example, is a kind of qualification certification process, if you can obtain a trace of root power from the demon lord, it is equivalent to the examiner giving the promotion a kind of "qualified" certification, then in the promotion ceremony, the promotion will be extremely smooth and extremely promoted.
This is also the reason why there is a tradition of "challenging the Demon Lord" among the demon races in the world of Assan, because only by challenging the Demon Lord can you be recognized.
Of course, under normal circumstances, the demon lord does not want to see other demons promoted, and of course the fewer people on an equal footing, the better, so the demon lord will not give this kind of promise easily, which leads to the side that challenges the demon lord, often only by killing the demon lord and plundering its root power can it succeed in ascending to the throne, otherwise it will only end up defeated.
So, the question is, without the approval of the Demon Lord, wouldn't the promotion ceremony definitely not be successful?
The answer is not necessarily, because if a high-ranking demon has enough accumulation and gains enough power, he can also survive the promotion ceremony and become a new demon lord, and the demon lord who becomes in this way is of course more powerful.
It's just that this kind of hard way often has a low success rate, and it can even be said to be very low, so the Demon Lord's [Root Gift] has naturally become a special gift and reward, and has become a means used by high-level rulers to control and entrap demons.
Seeing this, Roy realized that when he was in the Dark Bloodlines World, the Lord of the Desolate Soul said that giving Roy the opportunity to experience the power of the Demon Lord was actually a similar reward, if Roy agreed to it at that time, it would be equivalent to him being able to obtain a trace of the power of the Lord of the Desolate Soul, which would definitely be twice the result with half the effort for his future promotion.
It's a pity that Roy didn't understand this at that time, Alania was just a subordinate demon after all, and in the inheritance memory that Roy got from her, he was completely vague about the promotion process of the demon lord, and at that time, the Lord of the Desolate Soul was not only very vague, but Roy didn't trust him at that time, plus the Lord of the Desolate Soul asked him to challenge another demon lord, such a task was too risky, so after Roy perfunctorily agreed, until he left the Dark Bloodline World, he didn't carry it out, So much so that an opportunity was directly missed......
Of course, Roy didn't regret it much, and now even if he was given another chance to choose, Roy wouldn't do it.
Instead, it's the Lord of the Desolate, and that guy is still stupidly waiting for Roy to hand him over the task, after all, for demons, the passage of time is too meaningless......
Looking at these memories, Roy suddenly realized that at the same time, he couldn't help but wonder what the so-called promotion ceremony was.
So, he searched deep into Serren's memories, and after a while, he finally found the content of the ascension ceremony.
And when Roy saw the content of the promotion ceremony clearly, he was stunned.
Because he really didn't expect that the Demon Lord's ascension ceremony would actually be...... Break through the Gate of Heaven!
