Chapter 471: Helium Flash
From what Roy knew so far, he had already realized a situation: Don’t casually split the soul to create self-aware clones.
The demons of the Abyss seemed to like splitting their souls, either to create weapons or to make clones as helpers. Creating weapons was not too risky since the soul fragments were trapped in non-living bodies, and it was generally very difficult to develop self-awareness. But if they were placed in living bodies, it was highly likely that they would gradually become individual demons over time.
The wills of these new demons would not be consistent with their main bodies. They would not think that they were a part of the main body, nor would they have the thought of returning to the main body. Sometimes, they would even think that they were the main body, and the main body was the clone.
This situation not only happened with demons but also with angels.
This was the current situation for Julia. From the moment she developed consciousness and had memories, she had been staying by Samael’s side. Since she did not have her past memories, she had never tracked down where she came from. She only had one ident.i.ty—Fallen Angel Julia. If Roy told her at this time that her former ident.i.ty was the G.o.ddess of Light Jubileus, perhaps her first reaction would be: How is this possible?
From Jubileus’s perspective, she definitely wanted to take back the missing portion of her soul. But from Julia’s perspective, it was different. She absolutely did not want to merge with her main body again. She would feel that I, Julia, am Julia, and who the heck was Jubileus?
Needless to say, if Julia merged her soul back, then Julia would no longer exist in this world, and all her consciousness would utterly perish. How could she be willing?
Roy did not know whether there would be a connection between the main body and the clone when they met. If there was such a connection, then the moment Jubileus saw Julia, she might discover her, so he felt that it was best not to let Julia see her…
So, what about the other way around?
In Jubileus’s main body, there should still be a portion of her soul. This portion of the soul was still the holy soul of angels. If Roy could s.n.a.t.c.h this portion of Jubileus’s soul, contaminate it, and complete the degeneration transformation, could he use it to help Julia complete her soul?
This was equivalent to reversing the main body and clone completely, turning Julia, the clone, into the main body.
Even if Jubileus retained a large portion of her soul, he could try separating it and merging the pieces bit by bit into Julia. In theory, this method was totally feasible.
Based on Sparda’s situation, he knew that Julia’s strength would increase dramatically over time once her soul was complete.
At that time, there would no longer be the G.o.ddess of Light Jubileus, and there would only be the fallen angel Julia… The significance of accomplis.h.i.+ng this would be absolutely tremendous for demons. By a.n.a.logy, it was equivalent to getting the clones of Archangels like Gabriel or Michael to fall…
When Roy came to this thought, his heart started beating wildly. He was shocked by his own thoughts. This was almost equivalent to having another Lucifer in the Abyss!
Of course, although an Archangel like Jubileus was also an Archangel, she was definitely inferior to Archangels such as Gabriel and Michael, and she definitely could not compare to Lucifer. But in any case, it was absolutely possible for Julia to promote to demon king…
Roy’s eyes flickered as he began to plan carefully.
To be honest, even he did not expect that his greatest opportunity when he left the Abyss and entered the Infinite Worlds this time was not in the Devil May Cry world but in the Bayonetta world. If he could really operate this properly, not only would Julia be able to promote to the demon king level, but he himself also had a great chance of becoming the true Demon King Osiris…
Don’t forget that Balder still had a divine spark. In addition, the so-called Eyes of the World was obviously something good. If Roy could obtain these two things, then his trip to these two worlds could be considered successful.
I have to get them! Roy gritted his teeth, revealing his mouth full of sharp demon teeth. He clenched his fist fiercely, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. Anyone who blocks me is my enemy!
With this thought in mind, Roy waved his right hand forward, and Rafaro, who was telepathically connected to him and under his feet, immediately let out a deafening roar that shook the sky. He twisted his long body, bared his fangs, and flew toward the front battlefield murderously.
Roy was ready to join the war personally!
After approaching the battlefield, immense amounts of magic power poured into Rafaro’s body from Roy’s feet. Rafaro opened his horrifying jaws and revealed his ferocious dragon teeth as he faced the front of the battlefield. A gigantic black ball of light full of incomparably formidable lightning power and frost power formed in his huge mouth. While this black ball of light was bursting with lightning all around, its outer layer actually displayed a strange multi-faceted crystal light.
This was Roy’s first attempt to combine the powers of Dark Lightning and Dark Cold. He now had the seven elemental powers. But among these elemental powers, apart from the dark element that could fuse well with other elements, the remaining elemental powers were very distinct from each other. This had always been his greatest worry, so he had been trying to merge the elemental powers he had mastered.
And Dark Lightning and Dark Cold were the two powers that were the easiest to combine in his mind. The yin cold of Dark Lightning and the ice-cold of Dark Cold could be said to complement each other…
Through the amplification effect of Rafaro, the Sky Dragon of Osiris, as soon as this black ball of light appeared, it attracted the attention of many powerful angels and demons on the battlefield. The stronger the angels and demons were, the more they could feel how terrifying the power contained in this black ball of light was!
As the black ball of light continued to expand in Rafaro’s mouth, heart-palpitating magic power pressure spread throughout the entire battlefield. The high-level angels realized that they could not let this terrifying black ball of light continue acc.u.mulating power, so they desperately broke through the battle lines and rushed toward Roy and Rafaro.
However, they were quickly blocked by powerful demons. Madama Styx and the other demon lords realized that Roy was preparing to release a big move, so of course, they had to help him block interruptions. They all attacked, and all kinds of powerful magic shot at the high-level angels.
Junia attacked as well. She had appeared many times in this war. As soon as Julia’s and Benia’s earrings finished cooling down, they would directly summon Junia to attack again. After all, on such a brutal battlefield, even high-rank demons could only be regarded as stronger cannon fodder, so they could only get Junia to come out and help.
Numerous demons followed the demon lords and blocked the charge of the high-level angels, firmly impeding them on the periphery. Roy and Rafaro patiently finished acc.u.mulating power without being disturbed.
When they were about to finish acc.u.mulating power, Roy roared, “Dodge!”
Hearing his shout, Junia, Madama Styx, and the others ignored their opponents and quickly evaded two to three kilometers away.
As soon as they moved away, the black ball of light in Rafaro’s mouth erupted!
“Helium Flas.h.!.+”
The black ball of light, which had expanded to nearly a hundred meters, instantly turned into an enormous beam of light and flew toward where the angels were the densest. The moment the beam of light burst out, the holy light that originally permeated all of Heaven seemed to shrink back, and black light filled the entire s.p.a.ce!
The surrounding companions and enemies disappeared. Be it angels or demons, only the enormous black beam of light remained in their vision. They stared dumbfounded and even forgot to blink as they watched the black beam fly into the battle lines where the angels were.
A high-level angel was extremely unfortunate and blocked the path of the beam, so he was the first unlucky one to be hit. The moment the beam hit him, all the acc.u.mulated power exploded with a loud thunderclap.
The next second, a super thunderstorm that affected nearly a hundred square kilometers appeared! Hundreds of millions of lightning bolts flooded this vast area. These lightning bolts interweaved into a large net, and no angel could escape from it. Lightning covered all the angels in this area.
However, what was strange was that they were not electrocuted into charcoal by the lightning. Instead, their bodies turned into countless tiny crystal particles, into magnificent and neat frost crystals! Every cell in their bodies was frozen into tiny crystals!
Death arrived quietly to these magnificent crystals. With the help of the vast area covered by the super thunderstorm, Roy displayed his frost power to the fullest. Such a killing effect was not something a huge blizzard could compare to.
Both the angels and demons had their mouths agape, and they could not close them for a long time. No one knew how many angels had died in this attack just now, nor how many demons had been affected. But a gigantic hole had instantly appeared in the originally dense battlefield, as though it had been bitten off.
Before they could come back to their senses, another burst of heart-pounding magic power pressure appeared. When they saw the familiar black ball of light appear in Rafaro’s mouth again, the angels were finally terrified!
“Retreat! Retreat! Retreat to Aesir City!!” screamed high-level commanders on the angels’ side…
