How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

So much so that after dealing with the monsters brought by Kai and the others, I became inexplicably nervous.

Facts have proved that I really underestimated the freedom of the era.

When I used the black fragment in my hand against the skeleton that had just been killed, I unexpectedly had more options that could be used. My eyes lit up and I tore it into pieces without hesitation.

As the fragments were destroyed, a ball of dark aura suddenly appeared. After staying in the air for a moment, it quickly drilled into the white bones in front of it like a hunter who had discovered its prey.

Click click click.

The skeleton that had been dead began to shake, and the frequency was getting faster and faster. The skeleton, which was originally not much different from other ordinary undead, also changed, gradually transitioning from white to a metallic color, as if it was controlled by some kind of force.

Kai and others nearby immediately became alert.

What we didn't expect was that in the next moment, the skeleton's movements suddenly stopped, and at the same time all the changes on its body disappeared.

"Is this a failure?"

Everyone couldn't help but blink as they looked at the skeleton in front of them that had "died" again.

"The method should be correct, but the success rate may not be 100%."

I thought about it, after all, the previous process could be implemented smoothly, which means that this method is actually feasible.

The others nodded. Failure once really didn't prove anything.

However, no one expected that the next four attempts would end in failure.

"Your Highness, I think something must be wrong."

After the red light in the fifth skeleton's eyes faded, Kai shook his head, put away the shield in his hand, and revealed a serious look.

After so many failures, anyone can see that something is wrong. Even if there is a chance of success, the probability is probably very slim.

I was also having a headache, and asked myself the same question as a programmer, "But what went wrong?"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer. Although they were all aware of the problem, it was still fundamentally different from discovering the problem.

Satasia held the back of her head and pouted, "Why don't we go back and continue burning bones? These monsters don't seem to be able to bear the power of demons at all."

"Wait, Satasia, what did you say?" I suddenly understood.

Although she was a little confused, Satasia still repeated what she had just said, but I scared her as soon as she finished speaking.

"That's it!" I clapped my hands and looked very excited. Seeing the puzzled looks from people around me, I expressed my thoughts.

In fact, it is similar to the mechanism by which the human body produces viral antibodies.

"The curse of the Mihri ruins has lasted for hundreds of years. The demonic power is probably corroding the monsters inside all the time. If they haven't turned into demons after such an accumulation, does it mean that these monsters have been selected?"

"And what Satasia said is correct. Although the black fragments before were dropped from demonic creatures, they are fragments of contracts that imprison elites after all. Ordinary monsters may not be able to withstand it."

While Satasia was still listening in a daze, Kai and the others had already understood what I meant. "Your Highness, do you mean that we need to start with other elite monsters outside the Mihri Ruins?"

"No, if it weren't in the Mihri ruins, the demonic power would not be sufficient and might not be able to meet the conditions for demonizing elite monsters." Having learned about the characteristics of demonization from Kasalia, I shook my head.

This means that we have to find elite monsters in the Mihri Ruins that are not inside the Mihri Ruins. How is this possible?

"Hehe, why is it impossible?"

I seemed to know their inner thoughts very well. I smiled and appeared very confident. "Have you forgotten my true identity?"

"Foodie?"

"mascot?"

"Champion of the First Flying Chess Competition of the Proletarian League?"

"…How bad is your impression of me? And what the hell is that last one!"

Chapter 26 Demonization Success

With long pink hair and jet-black horns, it was a rare occasion for me to show my true appearance in the light camp, and I was in a relatively good mood.

Of course, that was before I heard the voice behind me.

"Sure enough, this look suits Your Highness. The pink hair is so cute for a little devil. I really want Your Highness to step on me and bully me hard."

"You just want to see His Highness's fat, you pervert."

"Don't bother. I'll tell you a secret. The Demon King is wearing blue and white stripes today!"

"He's a demon king, but he likes cute underwear. What a contrast~"

But when he turned around, he immediately became serious, acting the great and glorious image of the Holy Light Faith very well.

Of course, there are also people who feel guilty and want to ease the embarrassment by changing the subject, just like Kai, "What are you going to do by changing back to your original form, Your Highness?"

Looking at the curious looks around me, I realized that I haven't shown my abilities as a demon king in front of them yet. This is a good opportunity to show off my abilities to correct the image problems in these guys' minds.

"Of course, I will make this place my territory."

The dark erosion ability that had not been used for a long time was activated, and the power called rules silently penetrated into the ruins of Mihri, eroding the area in front of it into the territory of the Demon King.

Feeling the subtle pressure coming from the surroundings, Satasia and the others were a little surprised and started discussing in a low voice.

"Is this the true power of Your Highness?"

"Your Highness looks quite handsome when he is serious."

If I heard these compliments under normal circumstances, I might feel a little proud, but at the moment I am not in that mood at all.

The reason is that after launching the ability of dark erosion on the area in front of you, a prompt is displayed that an additional 500 energy is required.

Although I know that it should be difficult to erode the cursed land left by the upper demon, isn’t this price too high? People earn more than 300 energy points a day.

The burning gazes behind him and the high price tag in front of him seemed to form a difficult decision, but it was obvious that if nothing was done, this handsome look would definitely be regarded as a mascot.

Thinking about the impression that might become more ingrained after this, I gritted my teeth and resolutely took out my "wallet".

You get what you pay for, and this system is a good example of this.

After paying 500 energy points, the originally stagnant power of rules suddenly broke through the invisible barriers and brought the 20*20 area around him into the area he could control.

Even though it wasn't obvious from the outside, Satasia and the others could clearly feel the changes around them and were a little surprised.

"My ability can turn this area into my own territory, so that the monsters under my command can enter this territory."

This explanation made everyone understand my intention.

But having said that, I was a little troubled when choosing monsters, because few of the monsters under my command seemed to be associated with strong negative emotions.

Just when I was feeling distressed, I suddenly caught a glimpse of the few self-selected nest papers that Alice had given me.

So among the monsters listed from level 10 to level 30, I was attracted by the Hateful Ghoul at first sight. Both its origin story and level actually meet my needs very well.

Without any hesitation, I immediately built the relevant nest, and after it was completed, I created more than a dozen additional elite zombies through the input of energy.

Anyway, I have already spent 500 energy, so it doesn’t matter if I spend a little more.

"Then respond to my call and come out, you hateful ghoul elite." After the lines were spoken purely to show off, a strange creature with a gray appearance and a tattered white robe suddenly appeared in front of me.

Hateful Ghoul [Elite]: Level 20, 2000/2000.

However, this hateful zombie elite rushed to my side as soon as it landed, and made unfriendly sounds towards Kai and others.

It was obvious to the ghouls, who had little intelligence, that these holy light professions were planning to harm me as the Demon King.

"What a good kid."

As I sighed, I asked the ghouls, Kai and the others to stop, and at the same time handed the black fragment to Satasia.

After all, he is my own child, even if he is a little ugly, how can I watch him being bullied?

So just don't watch it.

"Xiao Shi, Mommy is sorry for you."

But before he could shed a few crocodile tears, news came from the other side.

"Your Highness, there is a situation."

I wiped the corners of my sleepy eyes, turned around and saw the zombie elite who had been killed, surrounded by a black aura, and opened his eyes again.

And unlike the previous situation, it was truly "resurrected".

Demonized Hateful Ghoul [Elite]: Level 20, 2700/2700.

It really worked!

I immediately showed an excited look, but just in case, after getting rid of this demonized corpse elite, I summoned nine elites one by one to conduct experiments.

Unexpectedly, the success rate was surprisingly high. Including the first one summoned, all ten elite ghouls were successfully demonized.

Although it is a pity that these demonized elites cannot seem to drop black fragments, it is natural to think about it. If this is really possible, wouldn't it be equivalent to being able to create demonized species?

In addition to the above, I have new discoveries.

I originally thought that these elite monsters would naturally escape from my control after being demonized, but I didn't expect that the Heart of Helentis was so powerful that even the monsters that had been demonized could still be controlled.

Although it sounds like it is useless, after all, the conditions for demonization are there, and the demonized elites are not particularly difficult to deal with. It is not realistic to use this to increase the strength of the monsters under your command.

But I thought of a crucial point, "If a demonic creature above the boss level is killed..."

Yes, once an elite is killed, it is considered dead, and the elite reborn from the nest is a completely different individual, but the boss is different. The boss can be resurrected from the cemetery building he built.

So the key is, if you demonize the boss-level monster under your command, then whether it will still be in demonized form after being killed and resurrected.

If this is really feasible, then the strength of the monsters under his command will undoubtedly increase significantly. After all, the increase in demonized strength can be fully seen from the contact in the past few days.

Chapter 27: My turn, sending Xiao Hei to the graveyard

I took action immediately after I thought about it.

Hateful Ghouls belong to the dark creatures. The black crystals produced by digging dark elements in the Demon King's City during this period are enough, not to mention that there is also the Black Prison Forest dungeon to provide relevant materials.

Therefore, after upgrading two Hateful Ghoul Elites to boss level, there were still a lot of surplus Black Crystals in the warehouse.

However, he only had two black fragments dropped by the demonized elites, so he did not choose to advance further.

And in the end it was still uncertain whether it would turn out as he had guessed. Fortunately, this question was answered after Kai and his friends killed one of the hateful zombie leaders that had been demonized.

"Really!"

Seeing that the ghoul leader who was killed and was on the resurrection list of the cemetery building was still in a demonic state, I did not hesitate and asked Kai and the others to kill the remaining ghoul leader together.

The two boss monsters with demonic abilities are at least three or four times stronger than before. Even if they don't do anything themselves, they can be a powerful weapon after waiting for the resurrection time to end and then being deployed to the light camp.

But now obviously something else is more important.

System: Accept the mission "The Test of the Glorious Chapter (IV)".

As expected, in the end, we had to deal with a leader-level demonic creature. If it weren't for me discovering this unique method, I believe no player would be able to achieve this level within ten days.

Looking at the latest words that appeared on the taskbar, I curled my lips and said, "What a perverted task."

"Your Highness, what should we do next?"

"What else can we do? Of course, we should continue with the previous method."

However, the eyes of the people in the monastery were filled with obvious surprise. "Your Highness actually has subordinates at the leader level?"

I twitched my lips, "What are you looking at? I am a demon king after all, and I can't be that shabby. Besides, Satasia is above the leader level."

The monastery team subconsciously looked at Satasia, who proudly erected a flight deck of an aircraft carrier. However, before she could be proud for long, she discovered the problem.

"Ah, why are you pulling me?" Satasia blinked as she looked at Bemira and Daisy who suddenly grabbed her arms on both sides.

But after seeing Bili and Shim on the other side, even though she was a fool, she reacted and said, "Wait, you are kidding, right..."

Kai showed an apologetic look, "I'm sorry, for the sake of His Highness's mission, I have to inconvenience you, Miss Satasia."

Are the imagination abilities of all Holy Light professions so strong?

Seeing a farce about to happen, I hurriedly stopped it, "No, Satasia is a lord, at least we have to wait until we get to the command level black fragments."

“That’s right.” Satasia was about to breathe a sigh of relief when she suddenly realized something was wrong. “Wait, this is too much. Lord Demon, you are really planning to turn me into a demon!”

Satasia escaped because of his high level, but a certain kid was not so lucky.

As my mind moved, a huge shadow descended from the area in front of me. It had a dark skin and sharp wings and claws. It was none other than the dark bat leader that I had advanced to some time ago.

Because of the scarcity of star fragments, it is also the only leader-level monster under his command.

Although he had died in the previous Eternal Night Madness incident, he was included in the resurrection list thanks to the cemetery building he built not long ago, and was resurrected today.
