Chapter 260 Biological Weapon
In the legends of many human worlds, demon blood was the most filthy blood in the world!
Perhaps it was because demon blood contained powerful dark power and magic power. Coupled with the domineering nature of the demon genes, it often caused unknown mutations to the beings that came into contact with demon blood.
Different types of demon blood created different mutations. Based on what Roy knew, some blood, like his, could transform others into liches, and some could transform others into vampires, like Dracula. Similarly, some blood could transform creatures into demon beasts and monsters. There were even situations like the Ashan world, where humans combined with demon blood and gradually became muscular and ugly. And because of the influence of demon blood in their bodies, these mutated races were often irritable, violent, and bloodthirsty, and then they became the ‘orcs’ in people’s mouths…
Regardless of the situation, it showed how terrifying demon blood was…
In fact, Roy had not stopped researching his blood since he discovered that his demon blood had turned Cassandra into a lich.
Roy had not encountered other frost demons so far, so he did not know if their blood would be like his, which could turn beings into undead creatures such as liches, but at least Roy’s was like this.
Cassandra was an example. Her soul fell into the Abyss because of intense hatred and was obtained by Roy. Roy then fed his demon blood to Cassandra’s corpse and transformed her into a lich.
But after Roy’s experiments during the three years in the Darksiders world, he discovered that the transformation into liches by his demon blood was not 100%!
He found that in order to transform a corpse directly into a lich through his demon blood, he first had to meet one condition. The corpse had to have magic power when it was alive, or at least had the potential of magic power. In other words, the transformed person at least had to have the potential to become a mage. Then Roy’s demon blood could transform them into a lich.
In addition, a body without any potential would be corroded by the dark power contained in Roy’s demon blood and eventually turn into a pile of bones.
Why did this happen? Roy guessed that this might be because his demon blood was choosing based on physiques because liches were born to know how to control low-level undead, which required their bodies to contain some magic power.
Moreover, the second condition of transforming a lich through demon blood was that the target had to be a corpse and not a living person! Death was the first step to becoming an undead creature…
Therefore, this led to a phenomenon. When Roy used corpses whose souls had dissipated to transform them into liches, these liches had no phylacteries. Not only did they not have any consciousness, but once they were destroyed, they could no longer rise again, making them turn into one-time consumable items. When Roy came to Ashan to collect magic books this time, he was actually trying to see if something like necromancy’s Raise Dead could eliminate this drawback and let these consumables stand up again.
Just like the liches in Arantir’s army…
However, when Roy tried to use magic power to simulate the power of death, he realized that it was not so easy to do because the power of death required for undead magic was very difficult to simulate. Roy was wondering whether he should use his souls to create this magic skill directly…
When he killed some people, obtained their souls, and then transformed them into liches, perhaps because the soul had not completely dissipated, the resurrected lich had retained a considerable amount of consciousness. They were like Cassandra and could even remember what happened when they were alive, but they would not obey Roy, who held their souls, and chose to resist! Why did this happen? After experimenting a few times, Roy found that it was due to the uneasiness that came from the bones of the liches. Because their souls were in someone else’s hands, they subconsciously wanted to take their souls back and save them.
Obviously, Roy was only a demon and not a necromancer. He could not place a necromancer mark on these conscious liches, so he could not control them.
On the other hand, Cassandra had offered her soul to Roy voluntarily, which was akin to a contract mark, so she was obedient to Roy.
Liches without intelligence were easy to control, but they were weak and unable to grow; liches with intelligence had room for growth, but they did not listen to Roy’s commands, which had always annoyed Roy.
Through the books he obtained from Ulambus, he found some records of Ashan mages who voluntarily transformed into liches through rituals. In these records, Roy found that the transformation rituals of all liches actually all mentioned a secret medicine. The composition of this secret medicine was unknown, but it was said to be highly poisonous. By consuming this secret medicine, they could kill themselves and then transform themselves into liches through specific rituals.
Therefore, Roy guessed that the so-called secret medicine probably contained frost demon blood. Through this secret medicine and rituals, the mages could control their souls. As such, they naturally would not resist him…
Roy’s demon blood had such a disadvantage, which meant that he really could not rely on only himself as a demon to pull out an enormous undead army. Low-level liches without intelligence could not control too many undead. Only Cassandra could increase her power by devouring the life force of living creatures. If Roy wanted an enormous undead army, he had to rely on Cassandra.
The strength of Dendera Fortress exceeded Roy’s imagination, but improving Cassandra’s power could not happen overnight. Thus, Roy had to think of another way.
The dark snow disaster that covered the entire forest earlier gave Roy inspiration.
In that dark snow disaster, none of the creatures became undead because the cause of their deaths was the Desolate Virus and Magic Power Virus contained in Roy’s magic power.
So, where did these two viruses come from? Of course, it was the perfect T-Virus in Roy’s body! The principle was the magic power that Roy used. After combining with the perfect T-Virus in his body and activating, it produced a new variation. In other words, the Desolate Virus and the Magic Power Virus would only appear when Roy used magic power. Without magic power, the viruses only existed in Roy’s body in the form of the perfect T-Virus.
With the inspiration of the two viruses, Roy suddenly realized that he had never gotten living creatures to drink his demon blood!
Logically speaking, not only did his demon blood contain the special dark power of frost demons, but it also contained the pathogen of the perfect T-Virus.
But Roy then realized that the perfect T-Virus did not seem to have any effect on corpses, nor was it contagious. This was what he had defined when he used it to strengthen his body without any side effects…
Thus, Roy thought about what would happen if he slightly changed the attributes of the perfect T-Virus in his demon blood to regain the powerful infectious effect and then throw it into the water sources of Dendera Fortress.
There was no need to say anything about cruelty. In fact, Roy’s identity as a demon had long destined him to have enemies everywhere when he went to any world. Every person who saw him would want to cut him into meat paste. Under such circumstances, if Roy still had any thoughts of being a saint, he would have long died many times over.
Since they were enemies, it was natural to get rid of them by any and all means…
Roy’s current body had a superb recovery ability. The wound inflicted by Frostmourne healed in just a few seconds, causing Roy to have to cut open his palm repeatedly to fill a bottle with his demon blood. It took a long time.
The purplish-red and light-green fluorescence presented a strange beauty in the transparent glass bottle. After collecting this bottle of blood, Roy put it into the system space and then took it out again. This way, this bottle of demon blood became a material in the system.
Then Roy began to define the attributes…
Blood of Osiris:
Demon Blood from Demon Osiris
Can never freeze. Can be diluted by any liquid. Once a dilution effect occurs, the perfect T-Virus in the blood will revert and restore its powerful contagious and mutation properties. There were Roy’s unique definitions for this bottle of demon blood. As for what kind of effects would happen after the reversion, it was beyond Roy’s control…
After completing the definitions and paying the extremely low price of two souls, Roy could clearly see that the demon blood in the bottle was gradually turning slightly bluish from the original interlaced purplish-red and light green!
As expected, Daddy System is as awesome as always…
Roy summoned another Demon Eye and tied this small bottle of demon blood to the winged Demon Eye before controlling it to turn invisible.
Then he saw the bottle of demon blood gradually disappear along with the Demon Eye.
Seeing this, Roy nodded in satisfaction. He released his hand, and the Demon Eye flew into the air toward Dendera Fortress.
After watching Roy in confusion, Julia asked curiously, “Darling, what are you going to do?”
Roy laughed, stood up, embraced Julia’s flexible waist, and pinched her chin with his fingers. He said mysteriously, “Do you still remember the human nuclear weapons that we used in the previous world?”
“I remember. What’s the matter?” Julia looked at Roy with watery eyes.
“This time, I plan to show you what a biological weapon is…”
