More than Great Red!
What exactly this sentence means, no one knows better than Leo!
This means that he will truly become the most powerful being in the world, an unrivaled Dragon God level strongman, and he will be able to do whatever he wants in this world from now on!
It's not like he has never had such a dream. He also imagined that one day he would be able to punch Ophis and kick Great Red and make countless gods and demons bow before him. He no longer had to worry about being killed by strong men who appeared out of nowhere as before.
It's a pity that this is just a fantasy, an unattainable dream. Let alone Leo, even the gods of the major Mythological System can only think about it in their hearts, and it is impossible to realize it in their dreams.
Even if he is as good as the protagonist in the original work, he has only become a Transcendent more than thirty years later, and is extremely far away from the Dragon God level.
"Uroboros Dragon" and "True Red God Emperor", these two people are two insurmountable barriers in this world. No one can reach them. No matter whether they are the top ten powerful people in the world or 666, who is said to be second only to Dragon God level, they are far behind these two people, let alone surpass them.
But now, there is such a possibility, facing Leo.
I also know that as long as Ophis accepts his "Queen" chess piece and becomes his dependent, the "Peerage Transformation" characteristic will definitely produce the most exaggerated feedback in history, causing him to undergo a fundamental transformation.
The target is one of the only two Dragon Gods in the world, or Ophis, who claims to have the power of Infinity. In this way, he is destined to be a great existence. Once he becomes the dependent of Leo, it will definitely not be explained by the ratings of "high potential", "medium potential", and "low potential".
If you think about it on your knees, if the dependent you accept is a Dragon God, then whether it is potential or ability, it will far exceed the so-called high potential.
By then, just thinking about how much feedback Leo can get will make his heart tremble.
Of course, if this is the case, it is obviously very difficult to surpass Great Red.
The simple truth is that no matter how great the feedback Leo gets from the "Peerage Transformation" feature, it is unlikely to be greater than Ophis himself.
Ophis is originally a bug-level existence. Leo will become as bug-like as her at most. It is not safe to reach the level of surpassing Great Red.
But if Ophis distributes her power to Leo to the maximum extent, that would be a different story.
You must know that the entire Khaos Brigade has received the "snake" given by Ophis and can use the power given by her.
But the "snakes" that Ophis distributes to Khaos Brigade members are, at best, just to upgrade them to one level. Ophis can distribute as many "snakes" as this level requires, and it will not have any impact on her at all.
She is Dragon God, known as "Infinity", and possesses the power of Infinity. As long as it does not involve the origin or the foundation, she can continuously branch out her own power, and she will not be weakened by it.
But that level of "snake" obviously makes it impossible for Leo to surpass Great Red.
Therefore, if Leo wants to surpass Great Red, Ophis can only maximize its own power to him.
This kind of differentiation will definitely involve the origin and the fundamentals.
Once separated, Ophis will definitely weaken, and it may even be difficult to recover.
However, because of this, if it obtains this power, Leo will most likely completely surpass Great Red.
This is also the idea of Ophis.
In her opinion, by becoming stronger by taking herself as a vassal, and then possessing her own power, Leo can completely surpass Great Red.
At that time, he will be able to help him defeat Great Red and find the silent world."
"
The entire dilapidated Throne Hall instantly fell into a silence far deeper than before.
Leo looked at Ophis who didn't look like he was joking at all. He had to admit that his heart was shaken at this time.
In the eighteen years since he came to this world, Leo has been working hard since he confirmed that he is the descendant of the extinct Eligos Clan, with half of the blood of Pure-blood Devil flowing in his body. In the future, as long as he becomes High-Class Devil, he can inherit Eligos Clan, revive his family, and become one of the dignitaries in the Devil world.
Naturally, he wants to become stronger and gain strength.
He doesn't have that big ambition, thinking about dominating the world or something, but after knowing that there are so many strong people and so many gods and demons in this world, he will also have pressure, a sense of urgency and a sense of crisis.
As Transmigrator and Leo, what they fear most is that they will be involved in foreseeable dangers without knowing when, and waste the second life they have finally gained.
Therefore, even though he knew that his talent was not good enough and could not compete with a chosen girl like Sona Shitori, Leo always worked hard to become stronger.
His idea at that time was very simple, that is, he wanted to become a High-Class Devil, inherit Eligos Clan, restore his family, become a landowner in Underworld, stay away from the hustle and bustle of the future, and enjoy a wanton Devil life until he got tired of it.
After becoming High-Class Devil, coming into contact with Evil Piece, and using it as a medium to awaken the "Peerage Transformation" characteristic, Leo's mind became slightly more active. He wanted to increase his strength and status as much as possible by recruiting outstanding family members, but this was also to protect himself from major events that might come one after another in the future.
Even so, in Leo's imagination, it is very uncertain whether he can reach the transcendent level like Sirzechs and Ajuka Beelzebub with fifteen Evil Pieces in the future.
There is no way, excellent relatives are hard to find, even Asuna Yuuki and Utaha Kasumigaoka, who are well-deserved heroines in their own stories, only have medium potential, and high potential is the most At least they must be the holders of Longinus. There are so few outstanding talents like this. Leo has never thought of collecting them all and turning them into resources for his own growth.
In view of this, in Leo's vision, if he can reach the transcendent level in the future and be no weaker than the protagonist of the original work, that would be considered the most successful.
At least, after reaching this level, even if the opponent is Chief God, God King and the like among the major Mythological System, you can be at a disadvantage, enough to be called the world's top powerhouse. Unless there are bugs like Dragon God, you can sit back and relax.
This is the most realistic future that Leo can imagine, and it is also his long-term goal.
But now, an opportunity to become a Dragon God-level being, or even surpass Great Red, appeared in front of him. How could Leo not waver?
"----Give me your power, what will you do?"
Leo suppressed the wavering in his heart and asked this question in a hoarse voice.
Generally speaking, the stronger a person is, the less likely he is to share the power he is proud of with others and weaken himself. Not only does this not harm others, it is not self-serving and will only allow others to take advantage.
If there wasn't a huge reason, no one would do such a stupid thing.
However, Ophis is such a fool.
"I don't care." Ophis said lightly, "As long as I can return to the silent world, that's enough."
As Dragon God, who was born great and possesses the power of Infinity, Ophis may be the one who least cares about the amount of power.
Her mind is very simple and naive. She doesn't want to be the strongest person in the world, let alone a superior status, so she really doesn't care whether she is strong or weak.
This is also the main reason why she fell into Hero Faction's scheme in the original work and was deprived of most of her power.
If she is really serious, given her strength, it is basically impossible for her to be plotted by a group of ants.
The behavior of Ophis in the original work after most of her power was taken away also proves this point. Even though she has become much weaker and can no longer defeat Great Red, she still goes her own way and is carefree, showing no sign of unwillingness or depression after losing her power.
Even when the other half who was born from her stolen power came back to her, she had no intention of taking it back, which shows that she really doesn't care about her own power.
Again, what she cares about most now is her long-cherished wish to defeat Great Red, return to Dimensional Gap, and return to silence.
For this reason, she doesn't mind becoming the leader of Khaos Brigade, the leader of terrorists, and becoming the enemy of countless forces, and she doesn't mind sharing her power and becoming a cash machine for those terrorists.
Even now, as long as Great Red can be defeated, Ophis also doesn't mind giving most of his power to the force, or even becoming his dependent.
The more powerful the dragon, the purer its mind, which is both a good thing and a bad thing.
Anyway, no matter how you look at it, Leo only thinks that this deal is a great deal.
The only problem is----
"Is it really possible for a being like you to reincarnate as Devil and become my dependent?"
Leo has to doubt this.
It is also mentioned in the original work that beings with Divinity should not be regarded as reincarnation objects of Evil Piece.
Beings with Divinity are the highest and most noble. They themselves symbolize perfection, eternity, and immutability. Even if they die, they have the opportunity to be resurrected and come back. Their life levels are so high that no matter how they think about it, they cannot be affected by Evil Piece.
Reincarnating humans or creatures of other races into Devil is called strengthening and transforming, but reincarnating gods into Devil is simply a weakening and devaluation, lowering originally noble and advanced beings to a mediocre level.
Therefore, it is unrealistic for a god to reincarnate as Devil. That is not called reincarnation, it is called downgrading, and it is called degradation.
Not only Evil Piece, many powers with insufficient levels are unable to affect gods with eternal life. For example, Vali Lucifer's "Divine Dividing" cannot have an effect on objects possessing Divinity in the original work. The halved power cannot operate smoothly on gods, and the effect will be greatly reduced.
This is true even for Longinus, let alone Evil Piece.
Moreover, the power of Evil Piece is also linked to the holder's own ability. If the ability is insufficient, when facing a reincarnation object with high potential, you must use multiple chess pieces or Mutation Piece to achieve the purpose of reincarnation. If the reincarnation object's ability is too high, the reincarnation may even fail.
Just like the previous Ram and Rem, before Leo appeared, no one knew how many people had tried to reincarnate them, but they all failed. This shows how much influence one's own abilities have on the reincarnation ceremony.
Under such circumstances, who is capable enough to reincarnate a god into a dependent?
I'm afraid even if the two transcendents Sirzechs and Ajuka Beelzebub come, they won't be able to do it, right?
In view of this, it is almost impossible to reincarnate Ophis as a dependent.
Even if Leo itself is special, Evil Piece has been connected with the characteristics of "Peerage Transformation", resulting in fundamental changes. Whether a Dragon God can be reincarnated as a dependent is still unknown.
"No problem."
Ophis said so.
"This power is comparable to my "Infinity" and Great Red's "dream". In other words, even we will be affected by it."
Ophis paused and asked again.
"How? Do you want to come?"
Want to come?
This is a serious question.
Now that the words have come to this point, Leo can't even think about it seriously.
This seems to be only good for him and has no harm. He would be an absolute fool not to accept it.
But that also means that Leo must assist Ophis and become the enemy of the "True Red Dragon God Emperor"
That is Dragon God which is more powerful than Ophis.
You all know how dangerous it is to be an enemy of that kind of existence.
Even if Ophis said that he would surpass Great Red, we still don't know what happened.
Whether or not to help Ophis, the leader of Khaos Brigade, the leader of the terrorists, Leo really has to be considered calmly.
In short, this temptation is very great. If you are attracted, the final result may be catastrophic.
Leo took a deep breath to calm down.
"I need to think about it carefully." Leo said calmly, "How about I tell you the answer after I think about it?"
Ophis looked at Leo intently for a while, but didn't say anything for a while.
It wasn't until a long time later that Ophis nodded imperceptibly.
"----Okay."
With that said, Ophis threw the dazzling Evil Piece in his hand back to Leo.
Leo took Evil Piece and found that there was a faint Black Snake attached to it.
Black Snake is a gas, not an entity. It is like some kind of phantom, due to the internal twisting of Evil Piece.
"I am thankful that this chess piece has power left in it."
Ophis said so.
"Incite it and I will come to you."
The implication is obvious, just tell Leo and wait until he thinks about it before contacting me).
Leo nodded silently, staring at Black Snake inside Evil Piece, silent for a long time----
