Chapter 193 Summon the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
Soul contracts were magic contracts specially used to store souls. They were very simple. Most demons that could use magic power could use them. But in fact, in the Abyss, soul contracts were rare because many demons did not have the habit of storing souls. The souls sealed in Fury’s soul contract should be from her killing enemies and then sealing them inside over many years. Although the nephilim could also use souls, their demand was not as high as that of demons, so they could store them forever.
After putting away the soul contract, Roy laughed and asked Fury, “I guess you’ve verified the authenticity of the so-called Corruption power, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have so easily concluded the deal with me. Am I right?”
“That’s right!” Fury admitted readily. “Corruption power and the Void power you mentioned are indeed very similar and very dangerous. What I want to ask is, is there really no way to eliminate this power?” “No, or rather, I don’t know!” Roy spread his hands. “I’m just a high-rank demon. Do you think I’m capable of solving this?” “Okay…” Fury said unwillingly. “Then tell me, where is the Warcraft world? If possible, I want to go to that world personally to find a way to fight against Corruption power!”
Huh?! When he heard this, Roy’s heart skipped a beat, but he calmly said, “Stop joking. Can you Horseman go to other worlds?”
It was no wonder that Roy raised this question. As far as he knew, it seemed like only the two races of angels and demons could travel through the Infinite Worlds at will. Oh, wait, there were also the elementals in the Elemental World. When traveling to other worlds, the first thing that needed satisfying to be summoned was being angels, demons, or elementals. These three races were famous existences in the Infinite Worlds. Precisely because of this fame, the natives of those worlds usually chose them when using summoning magic to seek help. But people like the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse were not good because their names were only spread in their own worlds. They were not very famous in other worlds, so it was generally impossible for anyone to summon them.
To put it bluntly, angels, demons, and elementals were simply famous. If no one summoned the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, they would have to pay a much higher price to travel between worlds. The repulsive force of a world did not need mentioning. Just the ability to tear open cross-world spatial channels was not something they necessarily had.
The most important thing was that if you did not know the coordinates of the world that you wanted to go to, even if you had the ability to tear open cross-world spatial channels, you might be lost in an alternate dimension world and be wiped out by spatial storms, such that not even a trace would be left.
When Demon Lord Rogeros had asked Roy to hunt down the illusion demon César, he had first located the coordinates of the world that César had escaped to and then used magic power to open a spatial channel. Otherwise, even a powerful demon lord would not have been able to create the spatial channel.
Due to these circumstances, Fury actually mentioning that she wanted to go to the Warcraft world naturally surprised Roy. To be honest, Roy guessed that there might indeed be a Warcraft world, but he had not been there so far. What he said before was simply bragging. He did not know the coordinates of the Warcraft world, and of course, he could not let Fury go to that world.
Unless…
As expected, Fury said the next moment, “Of course, I can’t go now, but isn’t there still you? According to what you said, the Warcraft world is powerful, and a demon like you will definitely have thoughts about that world. Moreover, that world is in a state of war. I don’t believe that you wouldn’t leave anything in that world after you returned… You definitely have some other way to return to that world, right?”
Roy was silent. He really did not know how to answer this question because he remembered the ‘beacon’ he had left in the Heroes of Might and Magic world…
In fact, not only him, but many demons would also try their best to leave some information or objects in the worlds they had been. This way, at least the natives of those worlds would know that demons like them existed, or they would especially leave behind their demon names to leave a deep impression on the natives. They might even write some legendary novels about their names… This way, the natives who wanted to seek help from the power of demons might summon them again one day.
Fury clearly misunderstood Roy’s silence and thought that Roy was tacitly agreeing, so she said, “I don’t have high requirements. If you can return to the Warcraft world, think of a way to summon me. In exchange, I can help you kill a powerful enemy, but you have to ensure that I can stay in that world for more than a month!”
“It’s meaningless if you’re alone!” Roy shook his head. “The forces in that world are too strong. Even a demon king might not be able to win against them. Even if you Horsemen reach the peak of your strength, you’re at best stronger than demon lords, right? I advise you not to waste your efforts!”
“If one doesn’t work, how about four?” Fury immediately said. “This matter concerns the survival of this world, and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse may need to move together…”
“Then it’s no problem!” Roy immediately replied and nodded. “But in the same way, your brothers will also have to help me like you! Do you agree?”
“Sure!” Fury nodded decisively. “I can agree on their behalf to such a small matter.”
