The Demon King Mode System

CHAPTER 173: WAR 41 (ACT MEANS DEATH)

Using the skill, Roy's body shone with a light blue light.

This scene was very similar to when Roy was using Bloodlust…

　

After a light blue light appeared, Roy waved his right hand slightly and started exerting his enormous magic power.

In an instant, the surroundings changed!

Roy and Ulthane are currently in the subway tunnel to the central area of the underground bunker. The moment Roy unleashed his magic power, black ice immediately covered the surrounding walls, and all the rocks and concrete that formed the entire tunnel made a grinding sound at the same time. That is because the shrinking of this building material at very low temperatures.

Under the influence of this shrinkage, some of the rock fragments detached from their original position and fell from above onto the steel rails on the ground.

　

In the end, with the sound of cracks, the steel subway tracks laid on the ground exploded. The steel material had become as fragile as glass, and once it came into contact with the slightest pressure, it immediately cracked inch by inch and exploded.

At the same time, several colorless water droplets appeared in the air. These drops of water are so small, they are even smaller than the raindrops depicted in a fine drizzle!

Ulthane didn't understand what was going on. He only felt difficulty breathing as these colorless water droplets formed.

With the formation of these colorless water droplets, a light breeze appeared in the subway tunnel, but as the wind blew, it made more and more water droplets in the air.

These tiny drops of water were at first still like mist in the air. But as their numbers grew, they began to gather and condense together, turning into larger water droplets before finally looking more like rainwater. When they gain enough weight, they begin to drop.

　

With a plink sound, Ulthane watched helplessly as ‘rain’ drops hit his arm.

In Ulthane's eyes, when raindrops touched her skin, it began to boil like boiling water. Boiling only lasts a few milliseconds before the raindrops turn back into fog.

But during this process, something bad happens. Ulthane discovered that the skin that came into contact with the raindrops suddenly lost feeling, and the skin instantly froze!

“B-bad!” Ulthane wanted to speak, but he found that he could not open his mouth at all. He wanted to take a step, but he found an enormous adhesive force coming from the ground, firmly sticking his shoes to the ground.

The rain drops kept falling one by one. Those who landed on the ground instantly seethed and exploded into countless small fog beads. In the eyes of others, it was actually a small cloud of fog. When it landed on Ulthane, it turned into an ice crystal and started freezing its body!

Even without being able to resist, Ulthane quickly turned into an ice sculpture!

This entire process did not even take three seconds. Roy's magic power doesn't even come into contact with Ulthane. It only spreads once to cause this phenomenon …

　

Only Roy knows what's going on.

However, the attribute of this buff skill is to lower the temperature caused by the magic power of ice Roy and force it to – 200 ° C!

After Roy was promoted to a high-level demon, he once took a moment to create a thermometer to test the temperature of his ice magic power. He found that even if he continued to increase the output of his magic power, his ice power would float the highest around - 150 ° C. Although this temperature was very low — and compared to when he was a mid-level demon, it was a substantial increase from -100 ° C— Roy still felt dissatisfied.

Where is the ice? It was not a luxurious ultimate move, but a lower, lower, and lower temperature!

Roy had thought of where the ice-type demon boundary was before. It was none other than absolute zero, which was an extreme temperature that froze everything and stopped the function of everything!

However, absolute zero was extremely difficult to achieve, and Roy had no idea how many souls he needed to consume to achieve this goal.

It definitely wouldn't work if he wanted to succeed overnight, so after thinking about it over and over again, Roy decided to take a step-by-step approach to make it happen. Therefore, he created a buff skill, Cryogenic Fate.

Cryogenic Fate: With the additional consumption cost of magic power, forcibly reduce the temperature of ice power to - 200 ° C. This state can continue until the amount of magic power drops to zero.

　

Reality proves that Roy's idea is right. The creation of the Cryogenic Fate skill did not consume too much of Roy's soul. After spending over 100,000 souls to make the Winter Armor, he then obtained over 4,500 souls. In the end, he had only spent 4,000 souls and 5 fallen and noble souls to obtain this Cryogenic Fate skill.

Of course, this was also because Roy's ice strength had a certain basis, causing his consumption to be relatively low. Had his magic power only been able to create a low temperature of less than -10 ° C, then the soul consumption would have far exceeded that if he wanted to forcefully reduce it to less than -200 ° C.

In addition, Roy is not unwilling to lower the temperature further. However he found that if the temperature continued to decline after reaching - 200 ° C, the soul consumption would begin to increase dramatically. Roy tests it and discovers that he needs ten thousand souls to create the temperature - 201 ° C. To create a temperature -202 ° C, the soul consumption is eighteen thousand souls. The higher he went, the more it cost. From this point on, each quarter-degree increase cost two thousand more lives than the previous level.

Roy isn't good at math, so he doesn't count how many souls he needs to get to absolute zero. But after all, the enormous consumption of souls left him with no choice but to retreat. In the end, he chose the most cost-effective – 200 ° C.

Although it does not reach absolute zero, making obsessive-compulsive patients very unhappy, the effect caused by temperature - 200 ° C is very surprising…

Because at this temperature, the oxygen and nitrogen in the air instantly melt!

The tiny colorless water droplets Ulthane saw just now were liquid oxygen and nitrogen. This was the reason he found it hard to breathe. Fortunately, the place where the two of them fought was not a sealed space. Otherwise, even if Ulthane did not freeze, he would soon die from suffocation!

Once the oxygen and nitrogen are liquefied, the volume naturally decreases, and the nearby gas gets filled up. This is the reason the airflow is formed on the part of the subway. As this airflow fills up, more oxygen and nitrogen melt again, eventually forming raindrops that drip down.

Liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen are scary. When they drip and come into contact with higher temperature objects, they will soon experience super cold boiling. If there is enough liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen, you can even see scenes like boiling water. During this process, the heat transmission process would be accelerated in a very short time!

　

In particular, Roy's fight with Ulthane was in a relatively narrow space, which even more demonstrated the effectiveness of his ice power to the top.

In the past, the temperature of the Frost Power Roy was not too low. Even if he wanted to freeze his target, it would take at least three seconds. But now after reaching – 200 ° C, the freezing time is shortened to about two seconds.

Don't underestimate this one-second difference. In fact, one second could almost determine whether the target could react or not and whether they could use magic power to protect themselves! The difference is huge.

Not even giving time to react meant it was over…
