In the following time, Roy kept entering the spatial vortexes that opened to find a suitable fragment world, but he was unable to find his ideal territory.
The fragment worlds he entered were mostly small, ranging from tens to hundreds of square kilometers. But such areas were not big enough.
Moreover, the terrain and geological conditions of these fragment worlds that Roy found were similar. The scorching volcanic magma environment was the most common, and there were also some misty spaces full of dark elements. They were all hell worlds with extremely harsh environments, but there were still many monsters in these worlds.
Yes, they were just monsters with demon bloodlines, not true demons. Roy felt that this was strange. Moreover, he had never seen anything similar to these monsters in the upper levels of the Abyss. It was as though these monsters were locally born and bred in these fragment worlds. But after thinking about it, he seemed to understand that, under normal circumstances, low, middle, and even high-rank demons would not be able to come to these fragment worlds on their own. The strict hierarchy of demons made them stay in places where they should stay, but no one managed these monsters born in the fragment worlds, leaving them to their own devices.
After spending two to three hours wandering around, Roy basically entered these fragments and tried his luck. But just after entering a new spatial vortex, he suddenly found the scenery had changed.
Unlike the usual worlds brimming with flames and ashes, the fragment world that he had entered was actually full of snowflakes drifting in the sky! These snowflakes were not as white and flawless as Roy had seen in the past. Instead, they looked... dirty! Because there was still a lot of volcanic ash in this world, when the snowflakes fell, the ash naturally enveloped them, so the snowflakes here looked gray.
Even so, this environment refreshed him. To be honest, it was the first time he had seen a frost environment in the Abyss. They were really rare.
Roy spread his wings and flew forward, wanting to see how big this fragment world was. The snowflakes falling at the entrance were normal, but as he continued to move forward, the airflow became more and more violent. The snowing weather gradually turned into a blizzard, and the temperature began to drop.
But this low temperature did not affect him at all. He only felt comfortable flying in this world of ice and snow.
He saw a mountain range extending far into the distance. The mountains seemed to be in the shape of volcanoes, but these volcanoes were rare extinct volcanoes that were completely silent and would not erupt again. The volcanoes were quite tall, and he could see that snow and ice covered the tops of the mountains, making them feel like Mount Fuji.
Roy flew toward the mountain range, but just as he was about to approach it, he was suddenly attacked!
About three hundred meters in front of him, dozens of demons flew up. The skin of these demons was not fiery red but light blue, and they only had two wings. They held various weapons in their hands, and the moment they saw Roy, they threw dozens of ice spears.
Facing these ice spears, Roy could not even be bothered to block them. He let the ice spears hit his body and watched as they smashed into countless shattered ice crystals on the Cold Winter Armor.
From their magic power, Roy had already sensed that these dozens of demons that appeared opposite him were only middle-rank demons. But what he truly cared about was the bloodline of these demons because he found that these demons were actually his people, frost demons!
How pitiful. Roy had been in the Abyss for so long, and this was the first time he had seen people with the same bloodline! The scarcity of frost demons exceeded his imagination.
These dozens of frost demons were not stupid. After their attack failed, they finally saw the three pairs of enormous demon wings behind Roy. The leader of the frost demons quickly said, “Your Lordship, please stop. Don’t go any farther. This is the territory of Demon Lord Anivia!”
Roy waved his hand and immediately pulled over the frost demon who spoke with his powerful Psychokinesis. The frost demon was unable to resist at all.
After pulling this frost demon in front of him, Roy looked down at him and found that he was only about 1.7 meters tall. His basic appearance was similar to when Roy’s bloodline had just awakened and he became a middle-rank demon. But this frost demon had many wounds on his body, and even one of his demon horns was missing.
Being restrained in front of Roy, the frost demon looked terrified. He did not dare to look up at Roy, but as he trembled with fear, he still said, “Your Lordship, this territory already has a master...”
“Is your lord also a frost demon?” Roy asked.
“Yes... Yes. My lord, Anivia, the Conqueror of the Polar Regions, is the lord here,” the frost demon replied carefully.
“Where is he? In that mountain range?” Roy asked.
“Yes...” The frost demon nodded.
“Okay, bring me to see him!” Roy said.
He was quite curious. He had never seen other frost demons in the Abyss. But as soon as he saw one, there was a lord-level frost demon. It was obvious that the other party was powerful, so Roy was naturally very interested.
The frost demon did not answer Roy’s question but asked cautiously, “Pardon my for being presumptuous, Your Lordship... Why are you here?”
Roy did not understand his attitude at first, but he soon understood that this frost demon might be thinking that he was here to snatch this territory!
Because these fragment worlds had intermittent continuity, some fragment worlds connected to other fragment worlds. Thus, there might be wars and territorial disputes between the demon lords that occupied the territories. Two fragment worlds adjacent to each other were most prone to encounter such situations.
The situation of this group of frost demons in front of him did not look good. The wounds on their bodies indicated that they might have just experienced a relatively large battle recently, so their injuries had yet to recover fully. It was no wonder that they attacked demons that appeared here. Roy’s status as a demon lord had made them feel afraid, but if it were a low-level demon, they would have killed the enemy directly.
Since these frost demons were like this, Anivia, the lord, was probably not much better. He might have been injured during the battle and should be recuperating at the moment, so this frost demon in front of him wanted to stop Roy to prevent another battle between two demon lords.
“Don’t worry. I’m also a frost demon!” A black ice crystal condensed in Roy’s palm. After tossing it twice, he said, “I haven’t seen another frost demon in a long time, so I want to take a look.”
It was fine if he did not say this, but as soon as he mentioned his bloodline, the frost demon became even more worried.
He knew very well that it was not easy to find a territory suitable for frost demons among these fragment worlds. The demon lord in front of him was also a frost demon, so wouldn’t it be more likely to seize this territory?
These frost demons were loyal to their lord, Anivia. With the contract binding them, they had to fulfill their duty of protecting Anivia, so they did not dare to bring Roy to him. “Hmph!” Seeing the other party’s thoughts, Roy could not help but snort coldly. “Don’t think too much. Although this is a world of ice and snow, I don’t fancy this dirty environment. If you don’t believe me, I will kill you and then go find Anivia!”
After thinking about it, the frost demon realized that he really had no chance of bargaining with a demon lord, so he could only grit his teeth and say, “Your Lordship, I’ll take you there, but please allow us to go and report to Lord Anivia first!”
“Up to you!” Roy waved his hand and removed the restraint on the frost demon. The frost demon heaved a sigh of relief and turned to shout at the nervous frost demons behind him. One of them quickly turned around and flew into the depths of the mountain range.
After making arrangements, the frost demon bowed to Roy. “I am Razthan, a middle-rank demon under Lord Anivia. If I may, how should I address Your Lordship?”
“My name is Osiris!” Roy replied.
“Lord Osiris, welcome!” Razthan bowed again and flew in front. “Please allow me to lead the way for you!”
Roy did not waste any time. He spread his wings and flew forward, and Razthan quickly followed.
Although Razthan was flying in front, he carefully flew below Roy to show his respect.
While flying, Roy asked, “Razthan, how many of our people are here?”
Hearing this question, Razthan looked a little gloomy. “Your Lordship, currently, there are only over a hundred frost demons in Lord Anivia’s territory.”
“So little?” Roy was surprised. “What about other frost demon lords?”
“None!” Razthan shook his head. “In fact, Lord Anivia is the only remaining frost demon lord in the Abyss. There might be some of our people in the upper levels of the Abyss, but I don’t know how many...”
“Just a frost demon lord?” Roy frowned. “Is the survival situation of frost demons really so worrying?”
“This... because something happened...” Razthan replied hesitantly. “But I can’t say too much. Your Lordship, you can ask Lord Anivia personally later. He might be willing to tell you...”
