Chapter XXVIII. Genetic Variants
"These muskets are pretty good. Carlos picked up an arquebus and looked at it carefully.
Although he saw a lot of muskets on the battlefield when he broke the Qing army before, the power of those backward muskets was really too poor, I am afraid that even the defense of the lower demons of the crispy type could not be broken, and it was a group of broken copper and iron to take back to hell.
Seeing that he was planning to bring the arquebus back to the territory, Quis couldn't help but dissuade him: "Carlos, the power of these muskets may be greatly reduced in hell and its subordinate planes due to different rules, or even unusable, and the power of these arquebuses is not too great, it is slightly stronger than the arrows shot by ordinary demons with ordinary bows, the range is also short, and the reloading speed is too slow." β
It's not that Quis hasn't seen hot weapons, but he doesn't look down on these weapons, these things are troublesome to maintain, and they also need special ammunition, you must know that even bows and crossbows can use magic instead of arrows, and these guns, they try to use magic to make bullets and reload, but the explosion caused in the barrel after firing will destroy the stability of magic, and the rules of the world of hell will kill these technological weapons, only those weapons and items mixed with magic technology can be used normally in hell.
"Yes, that's right, these arquebuses are too cumbersome to reload, and although the attack power has been strengthened by runes, it can't make up for it in terms of accuracy, and the real range is almost 150 meters, which is completely insufficient. Carlos always felt that this arquebus was completely chicken, he took it and thought it was useless, and he lost it and felt that it was a waste.
"Anyway, what about those demonic creatures? Otherwise, the two of us will be divided, and these newborn little ones will not be able to resist our commander anyway. "Quith originally just wanted to open a portal, but he didn't expect the breath of hell to be so powerful, and he directly wiped out the enemy, and sent them a bunch of cannon fodder by the way.
Carlos began to look at the demonic creatures, which could be roughly divided into three types.
The first is the power type, most of the demonic creatures in this form have increased in size, at least three or four meters tall, and the surface of the body will also grow scales or skin hardening, the defense has become very amazing, the mouth has also become a bloody mouth, the teeth in the mouth are very sharp, and the hands or feet of a few individuals will even undergo exaggerated mutations.
The second type is agile, this form of demonic creature does not change much in height, but its body shape has become extremely uncoordinated, its limbs have become slender and slender, its nails have grown long and hard enough to tear through steel, individual individuals have feet that turn into hooves or deformed lizard-like claws, elbows and knees have sharp spines for attack and defense, and even the best of them can become invisible.
The third type is a collection type, after all, the first two are the most common demonization, so the third one was named a special type by Carlos, some of the demonized creatures in this form have grown a pair of wings, some have grown horns and tails, some have an extra pair or a pair of feet, some are even horses that were originally on all fours, and finally stood up directly and became humanoid lifeforms, and some even melted their entire bodies into a puddle of unknown liquid, moving forward by wriggling.
The third type can be said to be bizarre, or Carlos classifies all but the two most common demonized creatures in this category, which leads to the third type of demonized creatures being the most numerous.
Of course, demonized creatures have retained a little ability to think, although they are impulsive and irritable, but at least they can understand human speech, and the saddest thing is that those who have become monsters have lost even the ability to think, and will only follow their instincts to eat and reproduce, knowing nothing, understanding nothing.
However, in addition to demonic creatures and monsters, there are some lucky ones who have maintained a considerable degree of wisdom when they are fallen, and they are considered newborn demons, and lords like Quest treat demons far better than those demonized creatures and monsters.
Of course, the reason why they can become demons, in addition to a certain amount of luck, is also related to their own strength, the predecessor of the guy who became a demon is a silver wing knight or a priest, not to mention the bitter race like the lizard people, including the king, none of them have become demons, most of them have become demonized creatures, and even some miserable guys have directly become monitor lizard-shaped monsters crawling on all fours, and even the ability to think has been completely deprived.
Of course, the treatment of demonic creatures and demons in the Hell Conquest system is also completely different, and even the Hell Conquest system will record the appearance and habits of the newborn demons through scanning, so as to make a picture book.
For example, a guy in front of him who is full of fighting for himself, the flesh and blood on his body have been replaced by a purple transparent crystal, and his eyes show a strange purple, and if you look closely, you can even find that these purple eyes are completely composed of dense tiny words, and he also has a pair of sharp spiral horns on his head, purple spikes grow on his hands, and light purple translucent flesh wings grow on his back, and the end of the slender tail composed of amethyst has become a sharp razor.

Description: Once a cultivator who cultivated the power system of order, after being infected by the breath of hell, the power of order in his body changed into a distorted power, this power is inherently the enemy of order, and its true effect is still waiting for the distorted demon to develop. γ
Of course, what really brought Carlos to this guy to notice was that the armor and weapons that the guy was wearing had merged with him at this time and become a part of himself, and this kind of assimilation, although not uncommon, was not so common.
And except for this twisted demon, the other Silver Wing Knights have not undergone such a special change after their fall, the power of order in their bodies has not changed, but has simply transformed into a variety of magical powers, and the twisted power definitely does not belong to the category of magical power, and the twisted demon is also a completely different life form from most of the demons in hell now, as the system describes, this newborn demon has great potential.
Most of the Blade Knights have mutated into beasts and demons, and the phenomenon of assimilation and mutation is not so common, but even if they are all Terrans in front of them, their images have become very different after the fall, some Silverwing Knights have grown two heads, some Silverwing Knights are full of barbs, and the magic power they master is also different, there are common elemental types, and there are rare attributeless primordial magic and illusion magic, etc.
It's no wonder that hell has a saying that we were one family thousands of years ago, but thousands of years later our descendants may not be like half a dime at all. These Silverwing Knights were all humans, but after they fell, they became all kinds of strange things, and the most impressive thing about Carlos was that he assimilated into his own mount and became a centaur-like lifeform.
