The army set off again, but because of the appearance of the dark elves, Roy had the army stay vigilant along the way.
And things did not surprise him. The dark elven assassins who escaped while Julia and the others were chasing might have brought the information back to the Shadowbrand Tribe, so during the following march, Roy and the others encountered more than a dozen waves of dark elves.
Putting aside why the dark elves were so difficult to deal with, Roy's enormous army was enough to launch a large-scale battle. Facing such an army, others would not even have the time to avoid it, so how could they run head-on?
But the dark elves were so stubborn!
They did not fight Roy and the others head-on but dispatched a large number of assassins to set traps on the path that Roy and the others had to pass through. These traps were set up in combination with the environment, and it was really impossible to guard against. Once the traps took effect and caused Roy's army to fall into chaos, these dark elven assassins would immediately appear and greet the crowd with poisoned crossbow arrows.
Their main target was the demon soldiers in Roy's army. The undead and zombie troops were not among their targets. They wanted to reduce the effective strength of Roy's army through this method.
Although the dark elves had to pay a painful price every time they ambushed, their frequent and endless harassment gave Roy a headache, especially the demons he summoned. They had long fallen into a violent state because of these attacks.
"It seems like these guys are targeting us!" Roy sighed. "Do they think I'm easy to bully?"
"No, it's the opposite!" Benia giggled. "They probably think that you and your army will pose a huge threat to them, so they're attacking you so tirelessly!"
Benia was very good at talking and flattered Roy without batting an eyelid. But although these words sounded comfortable, it did not help. The nearest demon city was still more than two hundred kilometers away. According to the speed of the army, it would take them two to three days to get there. If he allowed the dark elves to continue being so arrogant, Roy's army would probably be in a sorry state when they arrived at the demon city.
This was the first time Roy had come into contact with a Sheogh demon. Of course, he could not let such a situation happen and let the Sheogh demons look down on him.
I have to kill them. At the very least, I have to teach them a painful lesson and make them fear me! Roy thought as he thought about who to send out.
After thinking for a while, Roy summoned Rafaro.
"Rafaro, I believe you should know the information I forced out of the dark elves!" Roy looked up at Rafaro. "This Shadowbrand Tribe has obtained the recognition of the Daughter of Malassa, and you claim to be the Son of Malassa. Maybe you can see an acquaintance?"
"Of course!" Rafaro said. "If I'm not mistaken, the Daughter of Malassa that the dark elves mentioned should be Malsara!"
"Is she your older or younger sister?" Roy asked.
"Little sister!" Rafaro did not beat around the bush and replied directly, "To be honest, I never thought that I would hear her name again after so many years."
"Okay. Since she's your sister, you'll come forward and negotiate with her. Get her to warn the Shadowbrand Tribe not to harass me again!" Roy sneered. "I don't have time to waste on them, but if they insist on going their own way, then don't blame me for being impolite!"
The dark elves lived in the underground world, and these underground worlds could be said to be complicated. This was also one of the reasons why Roy was unwilling to entangle with them because it was too difficult to find their lair. But even though it was difficult, it did not mean that Roy did not have a way. If the dark elves wanted to continue pestering him, Roy did not mind spending some time to deal with them. As long as he could find the entrance to the underground world, Roy could make them live a life worse than death!
However, Rafaro shook his head at Roy's order to negotiate. "Unfortunately, if Malsara sees me, I'm afraid it will have the opposite effect …"
"Oh? Why? "Roy asked in surprise.
"When I was still alive, I wanted Malsara to give birth to a nest of dragon eggs for me, but she was unwilling. I had no choice but to force her. I didn't expect her to be so angry that she fought me!" Rafaro said regretfully. "Since then, she and I have become enemies. Although thousands of years have passed, with the vengeful character of the black dragons, she probably still remembers this matter. If I appear in front of her, she'll probably get the entire Shadowbrand Tribe to attack and find a way to kill me …"
Roy was dumbfounded. F * ck! You actually used force on your sister?!
Serves you right for becoming a bone dragon now. This is a sign of you going to the German orthopedics department …
Although Roy understood that dragons seemed to have a weak concept of siblings and could reproduce with each other, he was still shocked when he heard this story from Rafaro's mouth.
"Damn it, then what's the use of you?" Roy could not help but say angrily, "You grew such a big head for nothing, but you're useless at all. Damn it, just contribute all your death power to Cassandra!"
Seeing Roy's anger, Rafaro immediately cowered and quickly lowered his head. "Don't be anxious. I haven't finished speaking. Although I can't negotiate with Malsara, it doesn't matter. Give me an army, and I'll kill her. Isn't it fine?"
"Huh?!" Roy was dumbfounded. You're going to kill your sister personally? What kind of trick is this?
Rafaro said proudly. "Actually, when I heard the dark elf mention the Daughter of Malassa, I was thinking about this problem. Although devouring life force can restore my body, this speed is too slow. I need an extremely large amount of life force to completely reconstruct my dragon body. But if I can directly possess Malsara's body, then this problem will be simple!"
"Oh?" Roy understood and looked at Rafaro with a faint smile. "Aren't you afraid of becoming a female dragon?"
"Gender is just a small problem!" A greedy soul-fire ignited in Rafaro's hollow eyes. "She's my sister, and my soul will definitely be very adaptable to her body. The success rate of this plan is definitely high!" Roy sneered in his heart.
Rafaro really had a good plan. He had died in battle, and his body had perished, but his sister, Malsara, had survived. Dragons were like this. The longer they lived, the stronger they became. After thousands of years, Malsara's strength had probably already surpassed Rafaro's. If Rafaro could really possess Malsara's body, then he would leap to become a top existence in this world of Ashan, much stronger than the body he recovered by devouring life force.
But the problem was that if he wanted to kill Malsara, it was definitely not enough to rely on Rafaro alone. Roy would definitely have to take action. But if Malsara's strength exceeded Roy's expectations, then his life would probably be in danger!
In addition, according to the historical records that Roy had read in the library, the dark elves had reached an alliance agreement with the faceless in the Elder Wars, and Rafaro himself was a faceless. In other words, if he could really kill Malsara, then Rafaro could take over the dark elves. At that time, would he still be willing to be controlled by Roy?
Therefore, Rafaro's suggestion was equivalent to pulling Roy into a fire pit. It would be strange if Roy agreed!
Roy stretched out his foot and stepped on Rafaro's skull. The immense force pressed Rafaro's head to the ground. Roy stepped on it and said coldly, "Rafaro, has anyone told you that your acting skills are terrible?! The evil intentions in your heart are simply blatant and crudely concealed! So give up. It's impossible for me to help you deal with Malsara! "
Rafaro let out an angry roar, but Roy pressed his foot down again. During this period, in addition to Julia and Benia watching this scene with smiles, the summoned Abyss demons pointed at Rafaro proudly and mocked him unscrupulously.
This made Rafaro feel extremely humiliated, but Roy had already completely controlled him, so he could only be incompetent and furious.
"Rafaro, I'll say it one last time. I'm a demon, but I'm a trustworthy demon!" Roy lowered his head. "If you want to resurrect, you can! I will help you fulfill this wish, but in exchange, you have to listen to my orders and work for me. As long as you don't have so many crooked thoughts, then I will fulfill my promise! "
"… Damn it!" Rafaro growled, aggrieved. "Osiris, then why didn't you sign a demon contract with me?! How can I believe you just by saying it? "
"Oh?" Roy was stunned for a moment before laughing. "You're willing to believe in a demon contract?"
"Of course. Although I can't guarantee that you won't set loopholes in the contract, having a contract is better than nothing!" Rafaro said gloomily. "I've dealt with many demons before, so I know very well that sometimes it's a good thing to sign a contract with a demon!"
This was a different perspective. In the eyes of many people, demon contracts were always full of lies and deception from demons. But for existences like Rafaro and the others who had truly dealt with demons, they would rather believe in contracts than the verbal promises of demons …
Since he wanted to sign it, Roy did not mind having one more, so he waved his hand and asked Giovanni to come over. Then he wrote two demon contracts and placed them in front of them.
Both Rafaro and Giovanni signed their names happily after reading the contract. As the contract turned into flames and disappeared, the agreement between Roy and them took effect.
With the guarantee of the contract, Rafaro and Giovanni sincerely planned to work for Roy …
