Chapter 386 - Continuous Pleasant Surprises (1/2)
After regrouping again, the clone did not stand on the ground foolishly like before. Instead, he floated in the air, with the three pairs of cicada wings on his back vibrating at high frequency.
The clone already knows how to fly… This should be instinct, right?
Under this high-frequency vibration, the black patterns on the clone’s wings showed a strange phenomenon. Under Roy and Benia’s observation, an afterimage appeared beside the clone’s body. Although this afterimage only had a slight outline, it made it difficult to distinguish the true position of the clone in the air.
“Displacement illusion?” Benia was a little unsure.
“Won’t we know if we try?” Roy raised his hand and shot a black frost arrow at the clone. He aimed at the location of the clone that he observed, but strangely, the clone did not move in the air as the frost arrow passed through the clone’s body and shot out the back.
“It’s really a visual displacement. It should be due to the patterns on his wings…” Benia said. “Darling, don’t rely on your eyes to observe!”
Roy nodded and activated his Radiation Perception. This time, he saw something different. His vision was full of the radiation source released by his clone, and the visual displacement effect disappeared.
Roy opened his mouth and fired a Lightning Cannon. Because it was very close, and the Lightning Cannon was extremely fast, as soon as the clone opposite him reacted and turned into a swarm of insects, the Lightning Cannon blasted him, and half of his body was gone in an instant.
In order to understand the abilities of the clone fully, Roy was ruthless. This was truly ‘being ruthless to the point of even hitting himself’!
After the lightning annihilated half of his body, the clone moved again. The insect swarm that formed his upper body suddenly split in half, as though it was instantly self-multiplying. This swarm of split insect clones quickly gathered at the destroyed spot, and in almost an instant, the clone completely recovered. Benia was very excited. “I know. This should be some kind of regenerative ability! If I’m not wrong, as long as there’s a single small clone, this clone can’t be completely eliminated!”

Not to mention Benia, even Roy was a little surprised. In the Abyss, insect-type demons were recognized for their tenacious vitality. He did not expect that his clone would have such an ability after inheriting a bit of Beelzebub’s bloodline.
Roy’s current recovery ability was very strong. A demon lord’s demigod-level immortal body would not die even if it was cut into pieces. But even he did not dare to say that he could still recover if there was only a small piece of flesh left.
But the current ability of the clone was different. In the insect swarm state, even if millions of small clones were destroyed, as long as any small clone remained, it could condense back through the splitting and multiplying. It was as though every small clone had recorded and possessed the complete information of the body. Finally, it could change into two, and from two, it could change into four and keep replicating continuously.
This method of regeneration was different from that of other demons, and Roy could not help but think of Majin Buu. This ability was too similar to Majin Buu’s recovery ability. In fact, he had thought of giving himself this ability to obtain a true immortal body, but he could only give up on it because he was worried that he did not have enough souls. He did not expect to obtain a similar ability from this clone. Roy’s heart was burning. He absolutely had to obtain this ability. At that time, he only needed to spend a little more souls to define the size of his clones to be even smaller. It would be perfect if he could make each one as small as a cell!
At that time, it would be a true cell-level regenerative ability!
The highly sensitive dynamic capture vision, the passive visual displacement illusion, and the superb regenerative ability this clone displayed just now could be said to have brought surprises to Roy one after another.
Most importantly, other than an arm and a soul fragment, Roy had not invested anything else in this clone. It was pretty much all the benefits without the sacrifice. As the saying went, awesomeness was when there was zero pain and great gains. The more, the better. Roy could not wait to continue attacking the clone to see if he had any other special abilities.
