Chapter 69: A Reward from the Abyss
When the demon is promoted to the boss level, it means that it has finally gotten rid of its status as cannon fodder and has become a miscellaneous soldier with honor. Although it is still the lowest level of the abyss, it is qualified to be watched by the abyss, a quick glance.
For a little bad demon like Carlo, who was born in the Demon Sea, this is usually the first and last time they will be watched by the Abyss.
If you can't awaken a powerful bloodline, the little bad demon will never be able to break through to the commander level.
Of course, this abyssal gaze is also the most likely opportunity to change the fate of the inferior demon.
Perhaps the Abyss appreciates your potential and instills power to make you directly promoted to the rank of Commander or even Lord-level Archdemon, or it may bestow some kind of powerful bloodline to make your future extremely broad...
But these possibilities are too small, and the average inferior demon can only get a broken inheritance memory from the abyss at most, and obtain one or two natural supernatural powers, and that's it.
Darkness embraces all beings, and the abyss gazes into all worlds.
When the majestic will of the abyss descended on this plane, the entire sky instantly darkened, and it was a kind of complete darkness, and even the sun was swallowed up entirely.
The will of the world, which was arrogant and domineering before, trembled in front of the abyss like ants that saw gods, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Carlo felt that in the sky, there seemed to be a pair of indifferent eyes watching him, seeing him through, he couldn't move, he couldn't resist, he only had the urge to crawl on the ground.
Carlo has some realization, if he is not mistaken, it should be the will of the Abyss now to probe his potential and consider what reward to give...
The feeling of staring quickly faded, and a huge pillar of light cast down the dark sky, enveloping Carlo entirely.
A tremendous force was instilled, and this power replaced the effect of the fruit of sin, and on Carlo's broken body, new flesh and blood grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye, it was restored to its original state.
Of course, Carlo's demonic body has also become more powerful and burly.
The bat wings behind him doubled in size and were fully expanded, not even comparable to the wings of the demon dragon, more than three meters tall, and faint mysterious and complex lines appeared on the body, like incantations, and like scales.
The fleshy tail and the demonic horns on the top of his head also became thicker and longer, sharp bone spurs grew at the joints, and every part of his body was a cold killing machine, and his whole person was approaching in a more hideous and perfect direction.
This indoctrination only lasted for a short time, the pillar of light disappeared, and it was clear that Carlo's qualifications were not taken seriously, and the abyss only helped him fully step into the boss level, and then strengthened his body with his hands.
No inheritance, no memory, no blood...
Carlo is just the most ordinary of the countless bad demons, and he is inconspicuous.
At the moment when the pillar of light retracted, Carlo's blood suddenly became extremely hot, and dark red flames rose from his body for no reason, and a voice exploded in his head, and Carlo covered his head in pain.
In a trance, he saw that a roaring sea of fire appeared in his consciousness, and in the midst of countless flames, there was an incomparably hideous and huge figure, which would burn his soul at a glance.
The figure couldn't see clearly, and was looking up to the sky and roaring silently.
Blood flowed from all of Carlo's seven orifices, and his face was distorted with pain.
The invisible eyes fell back on Carlo, and then the pillar of light descended again, this time, the surging power poured into Carlo's body like a sea.
His body swelled up like a balloon, the strength and momentum of his body rose layer by layer, and the dark red flames also burned more and more, enveloping his whole person, burning everything around him.
Carlo watched the values on the experience panel beat wildly, one million, two million... Million.. Ten million.
He has risen from a low-level leader to a high-level commander-level demon, and he can only be a stop lord, or even one step away.
The figure in the sea of fire in front of Carlo became clearer and more condensed, his will became extremely arrogant and violent, and an unprecedented feeling of power filled his body.
The flames around him made a continuous cracking sound, and the power contained in them could easily tear through the void and incinerate everything.
The pillar of light retracted, and the will of the abyss no longer stayed.
Carlo stared at the sky slowly fading in darkness, and a voice came out of his mouth that was incomparably unfamiliar to even himself:
"My name, Terraria... Master of the Flame of Darkness."
Terraria?!Carlo suddenly woke up, in order to fight against the will of the world, he had exchanged a part of the blood of this Flame Demon Lord, and now he was assimilated by the will that remained in his bloodline?
No, that's not what I want!
Carlo struggled frantically, the expression on his face changed violently, going back and forth between hideous unwillingness and indifference and arrogance, gradually, Carlo's face stayed on indifference for longer and longer, and even in the end, there was only a trace of unwillingness in his eyes...
No!" Carlo let out a final wild growl.
At this time, the last trace of pure darkness in the sky completely faded, and the mutation occurred again.
The values on the experience panel in Carlo's consciousness are decreasing at an astonishing rate, one million, two million, five million... Ten million.
The aura on Carlo's body also weakened rapidly, and he fell step by step from the peak of the commander level again.
The indifference on Carlo's face vanished, and he turned to surprise and disbelief.
"No, what's going on.. My power.. Who's taking away the power of the Flame Lord.."
The force continues to fall inexorably. Intermediate Commanders.. Lower-level Commanders.. Finally, it doesn't stop until the low-level boss-level demon has an experience value of 0/3000000.
And that voice also became irritable and angry.
"Who is it, who is stealing my power... No, you are.."
Carlo vaguely saw the terrifying figure in the sea of fire being torn apart, crushed, and finally consumed by an invisible force.
He finally regained control of his body.
The next moment, Carlo felt his heart heat up, and the flames in his heart swelled and filled his entire chest, and then instantly retracted, turning into a small tinder again.
However, Carlo spread out his palm, and a pale blue flame danced happily in his palm.
The Infernal Flame has finally evolved into blue.
Carlo felt a wave of ecstasy.
Everything that had just happened was like a roller coaster, with an illusory feeling, Carlo carefully looked at his palm, and his body returned to the state it was in when the abyss was rewarded for the first time, only strengthening his body.
Then he turned his attention to the system panel, and was slightly stunned, as if the eternal Abyssal main questbar had finally changed.
"Abyss Main Quest: Lord's Path"
"Seize the power of Terraria and inherit the will of the Dark Flames. ”
Carlo's brow furrowed, Terraria's bloodline can be exchanged at the system, why do you want to release a quest now?
Moreover, why does the bloodline power exchanged at the system have the residual will of Terraria?
Crucially, when Terraria began to invoke the power of the Abyss, the system remained indifferent and waited until she was about to be assimilated by the Sacrifice before striking out her remnants. Why wasn't it the first place? Was it deliberately avoiding the probing of the abyss?
Countless doubts gathered in Carlo's heart, and for the first time, he deeply felt how small he really was...
