The first soul came relatively easy since the opponent had almost no resistance. There would not be too many opportunities of this sort, so Roy wanted to seize the opportunity to grab a few more souls. He turned his head and found himself in an awkward situation. Too many boats were chasing too few fis.h.!.+

There was no choice since more eggs had hatched than the number that had not. In such a short amount of time, all of the demon eggs were gone!

Roy only managed to get the demon egg because he had the advantage of proximity. Just as he wanted to obtain more, he saw a few little demons being slain over the demon egg in the distance.

Seeing this scene, Roy was suddenly shocked. The way that the demon race was born gave him a really bad premonition again. Would these stronger little demons that had yet to s.n.a.t.c.h souls turn to the hatched weaker demons?!

Roy felt like he was next on the chopping board as he looked at his small arms and calves…

No, I have to think of something quick!

Roy quickly brought up the customization interface.

He might be born a demon, but Roy still had human thinking. The first thing he thought of was to get himself a weapon!

When he thought of weapons, it was naturally a firearm. His first thought was to draw a pistol.

He chose a blank page on the interface and started working on it. Since he had no mouse, he could only draw with the brush tool directly by hand.

Roy had some ideas. He knew that besides using a gun when he had military training in college, he had little understanding of firearms, so he drew a revolver this time!

The advantage of a revolver was that it had a simple structure, was solid, had stable performance, would not easily malfunction, and would not jam at critical times. Even a dud would not affect the firing of the next bullet.

Of course, Roy preferred exquisite, elegant, and modern firearms, but he gave up on the idea when he thought of the bullet jamming at a critical moment, feeling that a revolver would be much more suitable for a rookie like him.

It did not take him long to complete a revolver. However, Roy had an urge to bang his head against a wall when he looked at the gun.

Perhaps because he had not used his hand to draw for too long, but this revolver basically looked like graffiti. Places where it should have been straight were crooked, and places where it should have been curved were straight. It did not possess any form of artistic beauty at all.

However, everyone in art design knew very well that a sketch had to be modified repeatedly before finalizing a design, so Roy was not discouraged. He only needed to use a few auxiliary line tools to modify and color it as well as retouch its highlights and shadows before completing the gun.

However, a strange noise rang behind Roy just as he was about to operate the panel.

Gawk!!

Roy stiffened and turned around quickly. The one making the strange cry turned out to be the four-eyed demon from just now!

This four-eyed demon had already recovered from the pleasure of devouring his first soul, and he wanted to continue killing the unhatched eggs but found himself too late to the game. In his anger, he accidentally noticed this strange demon that was Roy. To be precise, he was attracted by the light of the soul floating beside Roy!

When the other little demons were foraging for souls, Roy did not immediately devour the soul and immediately became as eye-catching as a firefly in the darkness. Therefore, this four-eyed demon turned toward Roy. His four eyes fixated on the soul beside Roy, and saliva dripped from his huge mouth full of sharp teeth.

Demons had strong digestive systems, fueling their need for flesh, but if given a choice between soul and flesh, most would choose soul…

When Roy turned around, the greed in the eyes of the four-eyed demon became increasingly obvious. His instinct and intuition told him that this demon in front of him was weak, and he would be able to obtain two souls if he were to kill him!

Just like what Roy had predicted, the stronger demons that did not manage to grab souls had their sights on the weaker demons, and it was happening all around the four-eyed-demon and Roy.

A new round of ma.s.sacre was about to begin. This was the law of the Demon World. Only the strongest would be able to walk out of the place they were born…

Roy immediately knew what the four-eyed demon wanted to do upon seeing his expression.

He wanted to modify and perfect his drawing, but there seemed to be no choice now, so Roy watched the other party while on high alert and using the text function to quickly define the revolver he just drew.

And the definitions he wrote were Firearm, Precision, and Infinite Ammunition!

He completed the definitions swiftly while in the confrontational death glare with the four-eyed demon. He quickly used collage to pull the drawing onto the main page and placed it in the hand of his selfie. Finally, he saved!

The s.h.i.+ning soul floating beside Roy disappeared.

However, what made him awkward was that the revolver he wanted did not appear in his hand. Instead, a prompt came from the system: Insufficient souls. Saved only 23% of the progress. You can choose to cancel saving or to modify the drawing!

Insufficient souls! My definitions for the gun exceeds the limit that I can use one soul for!

This accident stunned Roy for a moment, and right at this moment, the four-eyed demon hissed angrily at him.

The four-eyed demon’s sight was on the soul beside Roy the whole time, yet it disappeared the moment Roy saved. The four-eyed demon would certainly feel angry since the prey he was about to obtain vanished before him.

He could not see Roy’s system interface, but he thought that Roy must have used some method to hide the soul. Therefore, he kicked the ground and flew at Roy!

He was one size larger than Roy, so his weight was naturally different. He immediately ran Roy onto the ground and opened his mouth to bite at Roy’s face!

How could Roy dare to be bitten by him? He hurriedly waved his hand and slapped the demon’s face, knocking his head crooked.

This was his subconscious reaction. He only wanted to fight back after the other party threw himself at him. What he did not think of was how sharp his claws were. The slap left a few bloodstained wounds on the four-eyed demon’s face.

Gawk!!

The four-eyed demon was furious that his face was scratched b.l.o.o.d.y by Roy’s claws and also used his claws to attack Roy.

The little demons that just hatched were all infants and did not have many ways of fighting. There would not be any tactics in their battles, and they relied purely on their physical strength and their sharp claws. However, Roy was not as strong as the four-eyed demon, so he was on the losing end of the attacks. If the system rated his strength at fourteen, then this demon was at least at twenty. He was much stronger than him!

This can’t carry on.

Roy, who was overwhelmed and on the ground, took advantage of a gap in the attacks and suddenly kicked from the bottom upward, into the crotch of this four-eyed demon, dealing a vital blow to his weakness!

He noticed that this four-eyed demon was a male, or rather, it seemed like males were the majority among this group of demons. All of them just hatched and had no clothes to cover themselves with, so it was simply too easy to aim for the right place. This was the only advantage Roy had, maintaining calmness and logic, not completely relying on physical instincts.

However, the critical hit Roy imagined did not happen. While the kick caused the four-eyed demon to scream, he did not lose his combat strength. Instead, he took the opportunity to bite Roy’s shoulder!

It seemed like the weakness of human males was not the same for demons. Their privates were not as vulnerable…

The four-eyed demon tore a piece of flesh off from Roy. He did not have much pain in his shoulders but instead a tingling sensation of paralysis, making Roy realize that this four-eyed demon’s saliva might have poison!

Creatures such as demons had already exceeded Roy’s knowledge, so having such abilities was not at all surprising!

Roy found himself getting more and more exhausted, and he had no other choice but to grit his teeth and bring out the interface again. He used one hand to parry the four-eyed demon’s attack while his other hand worked swiftly.

Roy should be thankful that he finished drawing the gun before the four-eyed demon attacked. Otherwise, he would have never been able to finish it during this fighting. Right now, he only needed to modify the text definitions.

Roy already realized that it was definitely because the Infinite Ammunition attribute was too overpowered that he could not save the revolver.

He was originally afraid that the firepower would not be high enough, so he wanted to have unlimited ammo. But now, it seemed as though the requirement for souls was very high if he wanted to materialize this function…

Therefore, he erased Infinite Ammunition and even Precision and changed them to Full of Bullets!

Roy felt a weight in his right hand when he saved this time. It was cold to the touch.

At this critical moment, Roy knew that he finally managed to save, but he did not have the time to look at it. Once his finger found the trigger, he immediately pressed the muzzle onto the abdomen of the four-eyed demon…

The next second, a thunderous noise came!

Bang!!!
