MTL - Custom Made Demon King-Chapter 249 soul hunger
Roy didn't speak, but just looked Giovanni up and down, which made Giovanni very uneasy.
To be honest, the battle between Arantier and Roy this time scared Giovanni a little.
The Kingdom of Heles is actually composed of several large and small death lords and their territories. Giovanni, as a vampire count, also has a territory, but his territory is relatively small. In layman's terms, Giovanni is actually just a country lord, and all he can command is a group of vampires and some low-level undead.
There are still many rural lords like Giovanni in the Kingdom of Heles, and Heles is not so much a kingdom as an alliance. The necromancers are persecuted by the wizards of Bradaka, As well as the common belief in Asha, they came together and held together to protect themselves. This also made the Helaishi Kingdom have no so-called king, and each lord also had his own thoughts. They were not monolithic, but only maintained a superficial Harmony only.
And Alan Thiel is one of the most powerful death lords in Horace. This person who claimed to have obtained the destiny of Asha has attracted the attention of other death lords. Many small lords like Giovanni think that Alan Till would be the candidate to unify the Helaishi Kingdom, so they all joined him.
Giovanni followed Arantier in the same way at the beginning. However, after following Arantier for a while, Giovanni felt that he seemed to be following the wrong person!
Alan Thiel did not show any great ambitions, he did not take the initiative to attack and integrate the territories of other death lords. Most of Alan Thiel's time was spent reading books and fighting demons, which in Jowa From Ni's point of view, Alan Thiel is like a nerd, no different from the mage in the ivory tower of the Kingdom of Bradaka.
When the person he originally admired was gradually seen and understood, Giovanni also gradually had the idea of "Arantier is nothing but that", so his ambition gradually grew, and he wanted to replace Arantir.
It's just that the enemies Alan Thiel encountered in the past were too weak, and he could easily defeat them with his undead troops, so that Giovanni had never seen the incarnation of death summoned by Alan Thier. He knew nothing about the existence of that ghost dragon!
Until today, after Alan Thiel met Roy, he summoned the incarnation of death to fight Roy, and Giovanni realized that Alan Thiel, a **** nerd, actually defended himself...
The status of a vampire count is indeed not low among vampires. However, if you want to compare it, Giovanni's combat power is at most comparable to that of an upper-middle demon. Before that, Giovanni was quite confident in his own strength. Yes, but after he saw Alan Thiel's death incarnation and the strength he showed in the battle with Roy, he was terrified. Fortunately, he hadn't had time to challenge Alan Thiel's position, otherwise, he would die I'm afraid it's him.
Giovanni still has a bit of eyesight, and he can see that, whether it is the demon in front of him or the death incarnation of Arantier, what they show is extraordinary power, especially the demon in front of him. To be able to suppress Alan Tier and the ghost dragon he summoned with one enemy and two to the point of being helpless, this is definitely not something an ordinary high-ranking demon can do.
Even a powerful death lord like Alan Thiel couldn't please this demon, and Giovanni easily made a comparison.
Even if you want to rely on the strong, you have to rely on the strongest, right?
So Giovanni made a decision without hesitation, intending to cooperate with this demon!
He knew very well that, compared with a necromancer like Arantier, cooperating with a demon might have better results, because the demon has absolutely no interest in ruling a kingdom of the undead. As long as he operates properly, Giovanni may be able to use With the power of this demon, he became the king of the entire Heres!
Of course, this is also the decision Giovanni made after he discovered through observation that the demon in front of him might be a smart devil. If Roy was a bad-tempered demon, Giovanni would not have thought of this move. I was also afraid that Roy would tear him apart...
Giovanni anxiously waited for Roy's response, and Roy looked at Giovanni with the same interest.
Speaking of which, Giovanni was considered the second vampire count that Roy had ever met!
This first count of vampires is naturally Dracula in Van Helsing's world, but that Count Dracula is just a vain name, not to mention only three or four hundred years old, and he is so weak that he can't even use normal magic. I don't know how to use it, but now Count Giovanni feels much stronger.
"Okay, Lord Vampire Earl Giovanni!" Roy's tall body stood in front of Giovanni, looked down at him, and said with a smirk: "Although I'm curious why you betrayed Alan Thiel, but now it seems It's not the time to ask about this matter. What I'm more curious about is why you, Alan Thiel, and this undead army appeared in this desert of death. Don't tell me, you are here to find me! "
"That's not the case!" Hearing Roy's words, Giovanni secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and shook his head, "In fact, Alan Thiel led the army, just to find the tombs of ancient warriors in this desert. Gather a huge army, go to Erasia, and meet you, just in time..."
"So that's how it is..." Roy was relieved now, so I said, how could it be such a coincidence, so I nodded and asked: "Since you were Arantier's... collaborator before, then, do you know that his What is going on with the ghost dragon? Under normal circumstances, can a necromancer summon such a powerful bone dragon?"
"I don't know either..." Giovanni's eyes were a little confused, and he said, "Actually, this is the first time I've seen him summon such an undead creature..."
"Let me put it another way..." Roy stared at him closely and asked, "Does Asha's power really still exist in this world?"
"Impossible!" Hearing this question, Giovanni shook his head without hesitation and said, "If anyone can get the power of Asha, he may become a new dragon! Just like Saai back then Lang is the same, but that happened nearly a thousand years ago. The ghost dragon of Alan Thiel cannot be the power bestowed on him by Asha. I prefer to believe that it is just a powerful dead creature beyond common sense... Even if Alan Till claimed that he was Asha's chosen one, that's just what he claimed, in fact, the death lords in the entire Helaishi Kingdom have not received any enlightenment from this!"
"That is to say, you chose to cooperate with him before, but you just wanted to take advantage of his claim, right?" Roy saw through the essence of the matter at a glance.
"That's right!" Giovanni nodded and said: "If he is the real Chosen One, then under the inspiration of God, the death lords of the entire Horace have already gathered under his command, and we will all worship him." As the king, but you have seen the fact that Helaishi is still in a state of fragmentation... I can only say that with this kind of declaration, he is just a candidate who may compete for the king."
"So, he is actually just a mortal, and he can be killed as well..." Roy rubbed his chin and pondered.
The reason why I can't forget it so much is not because Alan Thiel led the army to attack Roy and the others once. Roy wanted to kill Alan Thiel because Roy flashed to Alan Thiel during the previous fight Hacking him, what happened the time he was blocked by Alan Thiel.
During that short fight, Roy clearly felt Frostmourne in his hand, and there was a feeling of longing!
At that time, Roy didn't realize what was going on at all. It was only later that he realized that the longing emotion conveyed by Frostmourne was actually that it wanted Arantir's soul!
In the world of Darksiders, after Frostmourne was remodeled by Utan, it has a special attribute: [Soul Hunger]!
The current level of Frostmourne is a pseudo-artifact. According to Roy's understanding, if you want to upgrade Frostmourne to an artifact-level weapon, you need to make the sword have something similar to a weapon spirit. This sword has gained consciousness. According to the attribute description of [Soul Hunger], if Frostmourne is held by another creature, it will continuously absorb the other's soul to enrich itself.
And Frostmourne has always been held by Roy. Frostmourne will not absorb the soul of Roy, the master, which keeps the sword itself in an empty state. When Frostmourne came into close contact with Arantir, it seemed that Arantir's soul was sensed by Frostmourne!
Alan Thiel is a powerful necromancer. Judging from his fanatical belief in Asha, his ideology, will and moral character are extraordinary, so his soul must be different from ordinary souls. Sorrow recognized the power of his soul, so he wanted to get Alan Thiel's soul, so he sent a signal of desire to Roy, hoping that Roy could use Frostmourne itself to kill Alan Thiel, so that Alantill souls will be absorbed by Frostmourne.
It was only afterward that Roy figured it out. There was no way, this was the first time Frostmourne gave him a signal, and it was normal for Roy to not react for a while.
Since Frostmourne wanted it, of course Roy was willing to give it, so after confirming that there was no Asha's power behind Aranteel, Roy began to think about **** Aranteel...
