Chapter 382: Beelzebub!?
The more I moved forward, the stronger that palpitation felt.
For a moment, even Roy hesitated, he found that things seemed to be a little different from what he had guessed, and the owner of this former ruin was probably more than just a demon lord......
If it weren't for the sight of the fossilized eggs and the fact that the time had passed, Roy might have turned around and left.
In this way, they continued to move forward, and finally Roy found that the magma river was getting shallower and shallower, and the two gradually came from the bottom of the river to the surface of the river.
Eventually, Roy and Bainia appeared at the source of the Magma River, which was a huge ...... The valley is surrounded by high rock walls, and on the left and right, there is a waterfall formed by magma falling vertically, and the fiery red hot magma converges at the bottom of the valley, forming a river to flow outward.
And on the rest of the rock wall, there are a large number of long eggs densely arranged and neatly arranged!
At a glance, I am afraid that it will really make people suffer from dense phobia, there are millions of fossilized insect eggs here, they are embedded in the rock wall, except for the occasional rock wall that falls off and falls with it, and then as the magma is transported, the rest of the egg fossils are still standing upright.
Roy and Bainia continued to move forward, looking at this scene in amazement, if according to Bainia, these worm eggs are soldiers, then the millions of bugs, what a terrifying army?
And then think about it the other way around, how much mana does it take to arrange these millions of worm eggs!?
The two of them walked cautiously forward, and soon came to a huge square, which seemed to be the center of the ruins, and there were a large number of broken demon-made building fragments scattered around, and many of the collapsed and broken statues had even shown signs of weathering, and they could no longer see their original appearance.
On the empty ground of the square, a huge, rusty red pentagram magic array was carved there, but this magic array was also mutilated, and many demonic words had been blurred.
Roy and Bainia looked at each other, looking at this magic array, where the huge and strong sense of threat had come from, and when they arrived at the square, the sense of threat had reached its peak.
"What should I do?" Bainia asked Roy, "It seems that there is some kind of existence hidden here, if I am not mistaken, it should be activated to activate this magic array to appear......"
Roy was also struggling, and after thinking for a while, he asked Bainia, "Can you see what this magic array is?" ”
"I don't know, but for sure, this is not a sealing array!" Bainia said: "This is the abyss world, there can be no foreign enemies, and in the same way, no demon will be stupid enough to seal himself, right?" ”
"It's hard to ......say," Roy said, "I can only feel that there seems to be a special alien space here, and it is not stable, I can even vaguely feel the unstable spatial fluctuations here...... This shows that even if there is something hidden in this magic array, it is about to reach the verge of failure. ”
"Then maybe you don't need to activate the magic array to open it?" Bainia asked.
"To be on the safe side, take a different approach!" Roy looked left and right, picked up a larger stone on the ground, and the flame of the lumen flame ignited from his palm, and then he saw the stone quickly being shaped in Roy's palm.
What Roy created was an eyeball-shaped object, and after this thing was formed, Roy sent it into the system space and defined its properties.
This is a [Space Probe], just in case, Roy did not give it any magic, just defined it as a photographic function, and then set it up with the ability to be teleported to a designated space and be able to be recalled.
After taking it out again, Roy carefully sensed the location of the unstable space, raised his hand, and used space magic to send the probe in.
Once the probe is sent in, it will start working, it will take pictures of the contents of the other dimension, and after a while, Roy will call it back again.
Then he began to look at the footage with Bainia.
As a result, when they saw what the camera had captured, Roy and Bainia couldn't help but be surprised!
"How...... How can it be!? Bainia's eyes were very frightened, and she said, "This ...... What the hell is this thing? ”
"I don't know, but I can confirm that there shouldn't be any danger...... Roy's eyes revealed a thoughtful look, gritted his teeth, and the magic power gathered on his hands, and directly used spatial magic to tear open the alien space he sensed!
In the next second, a huge pitch-black object suddenly appeared on the square!
With the appearance of this pitch-black object, an astonishing magic filled the entire space.
It took a while for Bainia to come back to her senses, and with fear and uneasiness, she raised her hand and shot dozens of fireballs, illuminating them with the firelight, and then the two of them finally saw the object in front of them clearly.
The object that appeared in the square was a huge ...... Insect corpses!
No, it wasn't a worm corpse, Roy and the others later found out that it was actually just an empty shell, because in the back half of this thing, a huge hole had been opened, as if something had come out of it!
"Yes...... Molting? Bainia wasn't sure.
"It should be!" Roy nodded, taking a closer look at the empty shell, but looking at it, Roy's eyes became more and more strange.
Because he found that the insect-shaped molt in front of him looked very much like a ...... Fly!
On its skull is a pair of huge eyes close to each other, from the shape of these eyes, you can see countless dense traces of compound eyes, and on the lower body of the molt, there are six insect legs with countless burrs.
The molt in front of me, except for the fact that it could not see its wings, really looked like a fly, but it was countless times larger than a real fly.
It's just that the empty shell-like molt in front of him actually exudes an incomparably powerful magical aura......
The more Bainia looked at it, the more surprised she became, and she couldn't help but turn her head to look at Roy, and Roy did the same, looking at Bainia with surprised eyes, because looking at this thing, and the powerful magic that this thing still exudes, the two of them invariably remembered a name.
Beelzebub...... Beelzebub, the Demon King!? ”
Beelzebub, known as the Lord of the Flies in many human myths and legends, is said to be a giant fly, and like Samael, the demon king who represents anger, he is also one of the most famous demon kings among demons, and is regarded as the embodiment of gluttony.
Roy and Bainia never imagined that they would find a body of Beelzebub in the underground...... Relic!
Of course, the thing in front of him could not be Beelzebub itself, but it was just an empty shell left behind by him, and his body had long since lost sight.
"Flies...... Will it molt? Roy asked, confused.
"Of course a real fly doesn't ......," Bainia said, "but the problem is that Beelzebub is not a real fly, he's just a fly-like worm-type demon......"
"That's a plausible explanation...... Roy nodded, stepped forward, and stood in front of the corpse.
His three-meter-tall body looked very small in front of the corpse, but Roy still reached out and gently touched the burly leg shell.
"No stress response!" Roy shook his hand and said: "The huge magic power on this is just a passive leftover, with the protection of these magic powers, plus it is hidden in another dimension, so this relic has not become a fossil like a worm egg, but looks like a new one." ”
Bainia said a little frustratedly: "In this way, the big black can become so huge, not because there are rare mineral deposits in this underground, but because it devoured the eggs left by the demon king Beelzebub, even if those eggs have become fossils, the magic power is already very weak, but long-term devouring, plus it is also an insect-type monster, so it will be stimulated to produce abnormal changes." ”
"It seems that this is indeed the case, no wonder it does not dare to come in here, only dares to guard the edge of the periphery and eat the eggs that drift out, the remains left by a demon king, and its magic power is enough to deter it." Roy said: "I just don't know now, whether this relic was left behind when Beelzebub was promoted to the Demon King...... After all, if it was just something left over from the time of the Beelzebub Demon Lord, this magic power would be too amazing. ”
Hearing Roy's words, Bainia's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said, "My dear, if that's really the case, then maybe you can find a way to become a demon king from this corpse?" ”
"How can it be so simple?" Roy shook his head and said, "If you can find a way to advance by relying on the Demon King's corpse, then the Demon Lords are still looking for something similar in the world?" But have you ever heard of a Demon Lord doing this? ”
"Not necessarily!" Bainia said: "Don't forget, in the entire abyss world, only Beelzebub is a worm-type demon king, this is just one example, it is impossible for other demon kings to shed their shells like Beelzebub and leave such an empty shell!" The other demon lords have nowhere to look for them. ”
Hearing Bainia's analysis, Roy couldn't help but be stunned, but then a strange feeling couldn't help but rise.
Yes, if Beelzebub's remains are the only one, as Bainia said, then why was he found by himself? When he chose this fragmented world, he didn't expect that such a surprise would be buried here.
What is this? Is there a providence in the dark? Or is it just a matter of luck?
Or...... Is that [the abyss elect] at work again?
Shaking his head, Roy threw out the nonsense and began to think about it.
This relic is something left over from a long, very old age, although Roy has not seen Beelzebub with his own eyes, but he also understands that Beelzebub should already be the top, the level of the original sin demon king, this relic is not his doppelganger, but there is just some residual magic power, it is very strange and unique, but ...... What was really useful, Roy couldn't think of it for a while.
Turning his head to look around, Roy saw those dense fossilized insect eggs again, and suddenly his heart moved, and with a flip of his wrist, a flesh seed appeared in his palm.
After the flesh seed appeared, it pulsed slightly, like a heart, but Bainia had never seen this thing, so she asked out of curiosity.
"This is the seed of the Red Sea Egg! Secretly A down from Lilith! Roy replied as he stretched out his finger and stuck a hole in the ground, and after inserting a hole in the ground, Roy buried the seed, then relaxed the muscular defenses of his palm, and used his fingernails to cut a bloody mark on his palm.
After watching his demonic blood flow out, Roy dripped the blood where the seed had been planted.
A moment later, under Bainia's surprised gaze, the ground trembled slightly, and in the next second, countless limb tentacles poured out of the ground and quickly spread out in all directions.
These tentacles are the flesh and blood roots of the Red Sea Egg, nourished by Roy's demon blood, they grow rapidly, and ...... Spontaneously, it began to weave towards the rock wall, enveloping those dense fossilized insect eggs......
