Chapter 63: What Kind of Gank Is It without Flash?

It was Roy’s first time seeing what a noble soul looked like. He did not expect the first time for such a soul was him transmuting one and not from a human.

He originally thought that noble souls would be golden, but now that he looked at one, he realized he was wrong. This noble soul was like a transparent crystal with dazzling color!

It looked like golden holy souls could only be obtained from holy creatures. As far as holy creatures Roy currently knew, it seemed to be angels.

Be it fallen souls or noble souls, the system used them to create skills. Roy had used 198 souls to transmute them into two high-quality souls. A high-quality soul was equivalent to ninety-nine low-quality souls, but its use was incomparable to ninety-nine low-quality souls.

Customized skills from the system could allow Roy to ignore certain rules. For example, if he wanted to use powerful magic like Xeron, he could directly imitate the magic in the system and make it take shape without needing to learn specialized knowledge about magic, spells, chanting, and casting. He could completely ignore all of that!

This was why Roy had not thought of learning it himself even though he knew formidable magical knowledge existed in the Heroes of Might and Magic world. In theory, Roy could even imitate a powerful spell like Armageddon in the system.

Of course, even if he could imitate it, it required the corresponding amount of magic energy to unleash its might.

But at this time, Roy did not plan on customizing such attack spells using these two high-quality souls.

He had started his plans a few days ago, so he naturally made the materials he wanted in advance.

He created two skills this time, and the first one was Flash!

Flash: Instantaneously move to a position determined by your eyes. Can be used continuously in a short amount of time!

In the system interface, the skill Roy made was simple—his body would instantly appear at another location. However, since he had consumed the Dark-Dark Fruit, he added some special effects. The flashing process looked like his body had transformed into a black mist, and then the black mist would appear at another place before his body reappeared. What should he say about this skill? It looked like Nightcrawler’s teleportation from the X-Men.

The second skill was Teleport!

This skill was different from Flash. Flash moved instantaneously over short distances, while Teleport moved long distances. However, since Roy did not know the terrain of this world, he set the location of the teleport to Fat Tiger. In the dynamic demonstration of the skill, Roy’s body transformed into a ray of light and then disappeared from where he was before reappearing beside Fat Tiger.

This was one of the advantages of creating Fat Tiger. Roy had created Fat Tiger from the system, so he had a spiritual connection with him. Under certain circumstances, he could act separately with Fat Tiger and then rejoin with him through this Teleport skill. This way, even if he was summoned to another world, he could use this skill to escape when he faced unfamiliar environments.

Some time ago, Roy had made Fat Tiger escort the army supplies. However, due to the elven army surrounding Xeron, Fat Tiger and the equipment he was escorting were unable to approach. Judging from the connection with Fat Tiger, he had not encountered the attack of the elves, but he was now cut off far away from the battlefield. Roy had gotten Fat Tiger to abandon the siege equipment and retreat to the demon city. If he had to use the Teleport skill, he would be able to return to the demon city in an instant.

He created these two skills for escaping. Since he wanted to push ahead, he naturally had to consider the route of retreat.

Due to the existence of the demon contract, Roy and Xeron were unable to attack the other party directly. In other words, Roy could not directly kill Xeron, and Xeron could not directly kill Roy. However, he could indirectly use the power of others to kill him. What Roy wanted to do now was to use the strength of those powerful dragons to kill Xeron!

High-rank demons were indeed very strong. At least in this world, high-rank demons like Xeron were as powerful as dragons. Apart from angels, it was the dragons who had the power to kill high-rank demons. Hmm, of course, those powerful heroes could do the same.

What Roy had to do now was very simple: go observe the battle. If the elves and dragons could kill Xeron, then so be it. If Xeron was really fierce, then Roy would give a little push in secret.

Don’t forget. Roy had another skill, Bloodlust! When he defined this skill, Roy had defined it so that he could use it on specified targets. Previously, Roy had only used it on himself and Fat Tiger, but now he intended to use it on those dragons!

The 40% increase in strength and speed for Roy was not much because his own strength and speed were not too high, but for those dragons who were already powerful, the 40% increase would certainly be astonishing!

It was totally possible to crush Xeron!

Of course, it was said that the more powerful a dragon, the more resistant they were to magic. Roy did not know if Bloodlust counted as magic or not and whether it would work on the dragons, so to be safe, Roy modified the Bloodlust definitions and added the Ignore Magic Resistance attribute.

In order to have the dragons deal a fatal blow to Xeron, Roy needed to get close to these dragons to use the skill on them. But since Roy was a demon, it was difficult to guarantee that the dragons would not turn around and attack him. Therefore, preparing escape skills was very important.

All he needed to do now was to save these three skills. Worried that the two high-quality souls might not be enough, Roy invested another 198 souls and transmuted them into two more high-quality souls. In this way, he had four high-quality souls.

After using 396 souls for the high-quality souls, 400 souls for the Horadric Cube, and 46 on the High-Speed Flight attribute of his wings, Roy had spent a total of 842 souls. Roy had obtained more than 1000 souls, but he only had 232 left in the blink of an eye. Next, if he could fulfill the requirements for the Flash and Teleport skills, he would also need to make a Magic Energy Growth Potion and improve his magic energy attribute to ensure that he could use them effectively.

Roy did not feel the pain at all. After all, he had spent these souls on himself. The more cards he had, the more confidence he would have. Even if the souls were gone, he could slowly obtain more in the future. It was all worth it.

After saving and materializing, Roy found that his Flash skill did not consume much. It only needed one and a half high-quality souls to materialize. However, Teleport took two high-grade souls. This might be because long-distance movements involved more spatial forces.

Space, time, these terms mentioned were naturally high-level powers. Generally speaking, the consumption of souls in the system would also increase, but it was worth noting that the power of souls was, in essence, a high-level power. And most importantly, Roy needed to consume magic energy to use these skills, so the high-quality souls required to create skills would not be consumed like low-quality souls and use hundreds of them. Generally speaking, this was how many souls were needed.

Flash and Teleport consumed three and a half souls. The last half was for the modification of Bloodlust. After adding Ignore Magic Resistance, this skill was equivalent to having an added magic penetration effect. In this case, Roy had an idea for when creating skills in the future. The consumption of this magic penetration effect was about half a high-quality soul. As long as he had enough souls, he could even add this definition to all his skills.

Finally, Roy turned the remaining 232 souls into a Magic Energy Growth Potion.

After drinking it, Roy’s magic energy attribute increased dramatically, but he felt a bloating in his heart. The flow of blood in his body became faster, and an intense restlessness appeared in him.

After a long time, this restlessness finally calmed down.

What’s going on? Roy could not help feeling puzzled when he sensed the anomaly in his body. When he used the Magic Energy Growth Potions in the past, he never had such symptoms! Is it because of my magic energy increasing too much?

Since Roy could not get an answer, he could only put it aside temporarily. After completing all his preparation work, Roy accelerated his flying speed. On the way, he tested the use of the Flash skill. It was indeed very useful, but it was not really like he could teleport anywhere he looked. The maximum teleportation distance was only fifty meters. With the adaption of the system, Roy’s gaze determined the direction of the teleport. Although he could use it continuously, with Roy’s magic energy value of almost 350, he could only use it three times because the continuous Flashes consumed more and more magic energy! The first flash consumed only 50 magic energy, the second time required 100, the third time was 150, the fourth time… There was no fourth time. Roy’s magic energy could only support him using it three times in a row at most.

However, this was under continuous use. If he used it after a certain interval, the consumption of magic energy was only fifty…
