Chapter 115 Cassandra’s Revenge
Perhaps in the impression of many people, ice and snow only had one color—white, pure, and flawless. However, this ice island Roy created that occupied a large area of the sea resembled a black crystal, carrying a mysterious and strange magnificence.
Everything froze in an instant, creating a timeless beauty. It was the most unique art of Roy’s Dark Cold magic power!
Walking on the black crystal-like floating island, Roy admired his masterpiece. Although Roy had learned this Ice Age move from Admiral Aokiji, he had not used high-quality souls to create this skill because this skill was too simple. It was nothing more than brainlessly and crazily outputting the power of ice, requiring no special manipulation.
However, compared to Aokiji who could directly freeze a strait, Roy’s freezing range was not considered large. Moreover, he discovered that despite it being brainless magic power output, he was still lacking skill in magic power output. In the seawater below this floating island, some parts had icicles growing out that pierced toward the bottom of the sea due to the concentration of magic power. While some places had a weaker distribution of magic power, so there were no such icicles. If he were to dive into the water, he would see a scene that looked like dog teeth interlocking at the bottom of the floating island.
Oh, quite a few fish were frozen as well...
If Roy could control the output of his magic power better, he might be able to make an evenly flat ice surface at the bottom of the floating island, or he could merge these icicles into a single icicle that connected to the sea bed. This way, the floating island could even take root here and not drift with the waves.
After realizing this, Roy found the next direction of his training. He needed to master the technique of skillfully controlling magic power output. He might be able to do this quickly or slowly, and perhaps it was one of the skills that had to be mastered to become a high-rank demon...
While Roy was looking at the ice sculptures, Fat Tiger and Cassandra landed and followed closely behind him. After seeing the lifelike expressions of the soldiers through the black ice, Cassandra could not help asking, “Master, are these people still alive?”
“Still alive, but they’re going to die soon!” Roy replied without looking back.
Roy deliberately did not use the dark power contained in the ice to make the ice sculptures collapse. He planned to keep them for a long time, so the frozen soldiers were actually still alive.
However, this would only be for a short period of time...
In many movies and novels, living creatures that had been frozen tens of thousands of years ago could still recover after defrosting. But this kind of thing was basically deceiving people! Even the so-called cold hibernation technology used for interstellar travel required the corresponding drugs to protect the human body. Otherwise, the cells of living creatures subjected to extreme cold would quickly die. In particular, when low temperatures were transmitted to the inside of the human body, the water in the body would also turn into ice, causing the volume to increase, thereby constantly squeezing the internal organs and bones. In the end, the immense pressure would crush the organs and bones.
Just like the high temperatures of flames, the low temperatures of frost were also fatal...
“Take advantage of the fact that these guys aren’t dead yet to absorb their life force!” Roy said to Cassandra. “There are nearly twenty thousand people. Such a huge amount of life force is enough for you to advance once! With enough strength, you’ll have the power to protect yourself after I leave...”
Cassandra nodded without saying anything and began to absorb the life force of these Spanish soldiers.
She absorbed life force, and Roy took away the exposed souls afterward. As the large number of souls entered the system, Roy could not help but think about how he was going to use them.
The Spanish Invincible Armada was not the same as Pirate Lord Ammand’s fleet. Large ships carried more people, and Davy Jones would not care about the lives of these Spaniards. This time, he had not come out to disrupt Roy, so nearly twenty thousand souls fell into his pocket.
This was a number of souls that would make even high-rank devils envious. But frankly, even though he obtained so many souls, there were many places to them.
First of all, he had to consider the problem of leaving a ‘mark’ on the demon gold. Although this kind of mark could not bring a huge number of souls to Roy like during battles, it was better in that it was like thin streams that would flow forever. There was a lot of demon gold in the Abyss, and Roy could dig out hundreds of tons and spread them to every world he visited. As long as people viewed the gold as valuable and circulated it in these worlds, there would definitely be people who would come into contact with this gold of misfortune and bring an unending stream of souls to Roy.
In addition to the creation of the mark, there was also a demand for the growth of Roy’s magic power. His magic power value had already reached the top-middle rank, but he did not know how much magic power was needed to advance to high-rank demon. For demons, the increasing demand for magic power accompanied them throughout their lives, and it was impossible to stop. This also required a lot of souls.
Finally, it was Roy’s defensive needs
During this battle with the Spanish, Roy was attacked by the exorcism prayer. Although he relied on his magic power to resist the expulsion, it made him understand the changes that would happen to his situation in the future.
With the increase in his strength, Roy would come into contact with more high-magic worlds. At that time, more powerful enemies such as archmages, high-level spellcasters, paladins, powerful warriors, and people with superpowers would gradually appear.

To demons, the greatest threats were likely holy power and the power of a world. The power of a world was still okay, as it would only forcefully expel demons without causing any harm. However, holy power was different. It was a power that could kill demons! And those who could use holy power were usually angels and high-level exorcists. Angels and demons had always been archenemies, so the main opponents of demons were angels. But because there were fewer angels, they were selective when it came to chasing down and killing demons. When a low-rank demon appeared in a world, angels would not care at all; when a middle-rank demon appeared, it might attract some attention; and when a high-rank demon appeared, there would definitely be angels coming out to fight.
If a demon lord or even a demon king were to appear, then even high-level angels would have to step forth. At this time, it often meant a massive war between light and darkness!
In short, in order to deal with the threat of holy power, Roy needed to strengthen his defense and resistance, and he could start making the demon armor he had considered before.
And this time, Roy had a better idea. After possessing the Dark Cold magic power, he could make his demon armor a skill. This way, once he used the skill, he could equip the armor by using dark ice crystals as armor materials to create a black ice armor. At the same time, he could use a large number of souls to define powerful attributes for this black ice armor!
Now that Roy had twenty thousand souls in his hands, as long as he was willing, he could even make a divine artifact-level armor!
When the time came, Roy’s dark ice would have strong physical defense and fire resistance. If he could define a holy light immunity attribute, he would not panic even when facing a high-level angel.
He just did not know how many souls he needed for an ‘immunity’ attribute. Such a term probably involved the level of nomological laws, right? While Roy was deep in thought, Cassandra’s voice suddenly came from up ahead. She said in surprise, “Master, come quickly!” What happened? Roy walked over and found Cassandra standing in front of an ice sculpture, staring at it with her hollow eyes.
“This is...” Roy looked at the ice sculpture and found that the black ice was sealing a middle-aged Mediterranean man. This man looked kind, but Roy could see the viciousness and insidiousness hidden deep in his eyes. He was wearing a robe, and the style looked slightly like those priests but different. It seemed like he was from... the Inquisition?
“It’s him! Master! I’ll never forget this face!” Cassandra pointed at the man with a tone full of hatred. “Mom burned at the stake after he condemned her as a witch!”
“So, the church enemy you’re looking for is him?” Roy asked with a flash of understanding “Yes... yes!” Cassandra said sadly. “Although there were many other people that helped commit the evil deed of arresting Mom, I can’t remember what those people looked like. Only him...”
This is really... Roy did not expect that Cassandra would find her enemy on one of these Spanish ships. It seemed that the Church of Spain had mobilized most of their forces in order to deal with Roy. Now that Roy made a clean sweep, the church probably suffered heavy losses...
“So, what do you want to do now?” Roy asked.
Cassandra thought for a moment and said humbly to Roy, “Master, I beg you to bestow this person’s soul to me!”
“Oh? You’ve advanced?” Roy finally noticed that the magic power emanating from Cassandra seemed to have risen to a new level.
“Yes, Master. After absorbing so much life force, I seem to have become a real lich!” Cassandra said. “I have a feeling that I can control the soul!”
“In that case, give it a try!” Roy said.
Cassandra nodded and absorbed all the life force of the man in the ice sculpture. Then Roy reached out, grabbed his exposed soul, and handed it to Cassandra.
Cassandra truly seemed to have some talent in the undead arts. Her skeleton’s hands grasped the soul firmly and held it in her hands.
“How do you plan on dealing with this soul?” Roy asked.
“I’m going to put him in a rotting corpse and make him the ugliest and most lowly ghoul!” Cassandra said hatefully.
Hearing this, even Roy was stunned speechless.
Hatred is indeed a terrifying force...
