Although Arantir was dead, he left behind a mess for the alliance army.
After losing Arantir, the ruler, this spectral dragon named Rafaro completely rebelled. After all, the memories in his soul had already recovered. Out of his hatred for the living and after seeing his former enemies, the angels, he turned around and began to attack the alliance army, immediately causing massive casualties to the alliance army.
Although undead were much weaker than when they were alive, because undead did not feel pain, they often had an advantage in battles with the living. In particular, the death aura they carried would often corrode and infect the wounds of the living, causing negative effects such as the loss of vitality and so on.
Clearly, the death aura on Rafaro's body was much stronger than that of most undead. When he swooped down from the sky and smashed into the living formation of the alliance army, he immediately caused the alliance army to be thrown into disarray.
Rafaro directly resisted the fireballs, hailstones, and other magic from the mages. These low-level magic attacks could not break through the death aura defense on his body. By the same logic, the sharp swords of the nagas that slashed at him were also ignored!
And when he opened his mouth in the crowd and bit down, he could kill dozens of mages directly. With a wave of his claws, he could tear a group of nagas into hundreds of pieces.
Seeing this spectral dragon wreaking havoc in the formation of his army, how could Astral and the others let it continue? Therefore, their group of mage heroes took action. Not only did lightning continuously strike down, but enormous rocks suddenly appeared in the sky and smashed down. In a short time, Rafaro was baptized by a large number of offensive magic.
These magic spells naturally caused immense damage to Rafaro. But strangely, although Rafaro roared repeatedly, he had no intention of rushing over to fight Astral and the others. Even though his former enemies, the angels, were not far in front of him, he did not have the slightest intention of rushing up to fight the angels. He only blindly killed the mages, nagas, and elven rangers.
At this time, Roy and the others also fought the alliance army. But because the alliance army's formation was with iron golems and gargoyles at the front, Roy and the others first encountered these puppet creatures.
Julia, Benia, and Giovanni flew in the air and killed the flying gargoyles. Cassandra's undead army and Fat Tiger faced the iron golems. Fat Tiger rushed into the iron golems' formation and pounced everywhere as the main attacker, while Cassandra's undead assisted from the side. With the enhancement of Roy's magic, these undead troops displayed considerable combat strength.
To Roy, killing these lifeless puppet troops was boring, but he had no choice but to kill them. The only good news was that almost all the gremlins in the alliance army had been wiped out because of the T-Virus that Roy released. So after these iron golems were destroyed on the battlefield, they were directly destroyed, and it was impossible for them to repair and fight again.
Roy stretched out his palm, and a fork-shaped black lightning bolt erupted from his palm. It quickly turned into a black electric net that shot out and easily melted hundreds of iron golems in front of him. But this move was not very useful against the gargoyles. Because of the material of the gargoyles, the effect of lightning magic on them was very weak and almost non-existent, so Roy could only rely on Julia and the others to kill them with physical attacks.
While killing the iron golems, Roy released Ice Storms at the alliance army in the distance from time to time to help Rafaro share some of the pressure. With such a good meat shield to attract firepower, Roy could not let him die too quickly.
However, as time passed, Roy felt a little puzzled because Rafaro seemed to have lasted a little too long!
Roy had fought him before. Under the power of Dragon Slayer Magic, Rafaro had been unable to fight back at all. But even after Arantir's death, the suppression on Rafaro had been lifted, and his strength had increased a little, it was impossible for him to last so long under the joint attacks of so many heroes. It was impossible for the combined attacks of seven or eight heroes to be less powerful than Roy's fists, right?
There was something strange, and Roy felt that something was wrong, so he floated in the air and observed Rafaro's situation.
With this look, Roy immediately found the problem because he saw that although Rafaro's body was covered in scars from magic and his pitch-black bones were full of cracks and fragments, what was strange was that some … fascias had appeared on his body?!
These fascias appeared on his wings and leg bones. They were white and looked like spider webs stuck to his body. If he did not observe carefully, he might not be able to discover them.
Recalling the scene of him continuously attacking the mages and nagas, Roy came back to his senses. He summoned Cassandra and asked her in a low voice, "Take a closer look at the people who died around Rafaro. Did Rafaro absorb all their life force?"
Roy could not see life force, but Cassandra could. After all, she relied on absorbing the life force of living people to cultivate her magic power. After receiving Roy's hint, Cassandra observed and immediately nodded. "Master, you're right. The remaining life force of those who were killed is flowing toward Rafaro … It's very slow, but it's continuous!"
"I understand!" Roy narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly.
No wonder. When Rafaro suggested working together just now, he felt that it was a little strange. He did not expect that Rafaro actually had this idea!
How strong was Rafaro when he was alive? Roy did not know, but he knew that a black dragon who called himself the Son of Malassa and had lived for countless years had probably had strength no less than that of a true demon lord. It was even possible for him to be at the demon king level. But the problem was that Arantir had found him a long time after his death and resurrected him. After becoming an undead dragon, even if he still retained his soul, his strength would definitely have dropped greatly.
Therefore, after Rafaro's memories returned, the first thing he thought of was not revenge but finding a way to restore his original strength.
The best way to restore its original strength was to find its own Dragon Race body. Only then would it be able to bear its original huge power!
In the past, Rafaro might have only been a dragon who grasped dark power. But after so many years in the dragon tomb, the death aura condensed on his body allowed him to grasp the power of death. Now, he seemed to be using this death power to deprive the life force of the living and use it to transform his body!
Needless to say, this mystic technique that could bring the dead back to life definitely required a large number of living people to sacrifice. No wonder he ignored the attacks of the heroes and only focused on slaughtering the mages and nagas. These two soldiers could be said to be the most numerous living in the current alliance army … What appeared now were only some fascias.
What appeared now was only some fascia. Perhaps in a while, blood vessels, muscles, and finally skin, dragon scales, and so on would appear on his body. At that time, Rafaro would be able to reverse death and achieve a true and complete resurrection!
After truly obtaining a dragon body, no one could say how powerful Rafaro would be …
"Master, should we stop him?" Cassandra asked worriedly. "Don't forget that you beat him up earlier. Black dragons have always held grudges. Now, he's working with us to kill the enemy, but when he really recovers, he might have other thoughts …" Of course, Roy understood what Cassandra meant.
Of course, Roy understood what Cassandra meant. In fact, when Rafaro proposed to work together, Roy had thought that Rafaro was afraid of being beaten up, so he was terrified. After all, with the enhancement of Dragon Slayer Magic, Roy's attacks were indeed quite powerful to Rafaro. But when he realized Rafaro's true intentions, Roy realized that this guy had joined forces with him not only because he wanted an excuse to seize the opportunity to plunder the life force of the living, but also because there were too few living people on his side, so even if he seized their life force, he would not be able to seize much.
In this case, it would be better to attack the alliance army with Roy and the others. With Roy and the other demons, fallen angels, and undead helping to share the firepower, Rafaro would not be defeated as soon as he appeared …
"Heh, what a good plan …" After thinking it through, Roy could not help but grin coldly. "No need. Let's continue attacking. If he wants to plunder life force, let him plunder it. I believe that we're not the only ones who can see it. There are no fools in the alliance army. In addition, don't you need life force to increase your magic power? Try to suck as much as you can and snatch as much as you can from its mouth. I want to see how many chickens it can steal in front of everyone's eyes … "
Roy's T-Virus had long killed the largest group of gremlins. The number of archmages and nagas added up to less than ten thousand, and he could not absorb life force from puppet creatures. In other words, after sucking the archmages and nagas, if Rafaro wanted to obtain more life force, he could only target the angels, titans, and green dragons …
These high-level mythical creatures were the most powerful force of the alliance army. Although they had not moved for the time being, just looking at their numbers, even Roy felt that it was a little troublesome. It was better to let Rafaro fight them first …
