Raelag finally escaped as Roy had expected, but the troops he led basically stayed underground.
Before the battle was over, Rafaro could not wait to clean up the battlefield.
In the Shadowbrand clan's army, about sixty black dragons and shadow dragons participated in the battle, and most of them were adult dragons around three hundred years old. But although there were many of them, the battle broke out in this underground world after all, and the space they could use was limited, so most of the black dragons and shadow dragons did not fully display their effectiveness.
On Roy's side, the main force of slaughtering the dragons was Julia, Benia, Fat Tiger, and Rafaro. Under the cover of Cassandra's bone dragons, they shot down many dragons from the sky.
However, these black dragons and shadow dragons were basically only seriously injured. With the support of their powerful life force, they would not die for a while, giving Rafaro a chance to absorb the life force of these dragons.
This enormous, pitch-black spectral dragon walked on the battlefield, not caring about his kindred at all. He plundered the last life force of the dying black dragons and shadow dragons, and he even absorbed the remaining dark elven creatures that had not died. The immense life force turned into specks of starlight and fused into Rafaro's body.
Roy was standing in the middle of the battlefield. The Soul Attracting Flag was inserted into the ground, collecting the souls of the entire battlefield. At the same time, he witnessed Rafaro's overall changes.
He watched as fascias appeared on Rafaro's originally black bones bit by bit, then blood vessels and muscles. He watched him recover his body bit by bit from the inside out, especially in his originally empty chest. The process of his internal organs gradually appearing was really a little terrifying.
Thud thud! Thud thud! A muffled sound came, and Rafaro's dragon heart actually started beating again! The voice was low at the beginning, but it slowly became stronger.
At this moment, Rafaro had become a … how should he put it? It was as though he had skinned a dragon because his dragon skin had not recovered. Roy could clearly see all his muscle tissues as a dragon, as though he was looking at an anatomical diagram.
"Not enough! Not enough! I still need a little more! "Rafaro's depressed roar sounded very anxious.
Its current appearance looked even more terrifying than when it was bare bones. Although it did not feel bloody, looking at the exposed muscle tissue always felt very scary. Roy did not know what the resurrection secret method it used was and why the resurrection process was like this …
Rafaro walked over with heavy steps and said to Roy gloomily, "Osiris, I still need more life force. When will your plan start? When will the next war come? "
"The plan has begun, but the next battle will have to wait for a while. You'll have to maintain this appearance for a while!" Roy said. "We'll be staying underground during this period of time. You might be able to find underground creatures like cavemen to absorb their life force."
"No, those lowly fellows can't absorb much at all!" Rafaro shook his enormous flesh and blood head. The eyes that had condensed on it had a disdainful look in their eyes. "I want to absorb the life force of dragons. It's best if they're of the same race!"
"Then I'm sorry, but you might be disappointed. The only dark elven tribe in this Land is the Shadowbrand clan, and we just killed all their troops!" Roy touched his demon horns. "I'm afraid you won't be able to find other black dragons in the short term."
Rafaro carefully bent down and lay on the ground, afraid of touching the fragile muscles on his body. He said angrily, "Damn it. Why was it so close? Dragon scales are the greatest essence of dragons. Without the protection of dragon scales, my current combat strength will decrease a lot."
Indeed, his body had recovered, but without the protection of the dragon scales on the surface, Rafaro had to be careful of the enemy's attacks injuring the flesh that he had just grown. His resurrection process was now stuck at his most vulnerable period.
Roy could not be bothered to comfort him and focused on collecting souls. At this moment, Fat Tiger's left and right heads each held the tails of a black dragon and a shadow dragon. He took off the two enormous dragon corpses and placed them in front of Roy before looking at him expectantly.
"…" Roy looked at Fat Tiger speechlessly. This name was really not wrong. This guy had completely evolved into a foodie. Now, he wanted to taste the taste of black dragons and shadow dragons.
Of course, Rafaro could tell what Fat Tiger wanted to do. He stood up speechlessly and found a corner to lie down again. He now had a body, so he put himself in Roy's shoes. He felt a chill run down his spine when he looked at Roy roasting dragon meat … Not long after, Julia and Benia returned.
Not long after, Julia and Benia returned. After flapping their wings and landing, Julia said to Roy, "Darling, according to your instructions, Benia and I chased Raelag for a while until we reached the ground and deliberately chased him toward the alliance army. Raelag doesn't know, but if he keeps running like this, there's a high chance he'll bump into the alliance army!"
"Well done!" Roy nodded in satisfaction.
The surveillance of the Demon Eyes had never stopped, so Roy had always been in control of the movements of Xeron's demon army in Ur-Hekal. Just yesterday, he had discovered signs of a large mobilization of the demon army in Ur-Hekal, presumably to guard against the alliance army's attack.
Xeron had concentrated most of his troops in Ur-Hekal, and the defenses of the other demon cities in Eeofol would naturally be much weaker. Therefore, it was difficult for these cities to resist the alliance army, and the alliance army would invade Eeofol's hinterland with irresistible force.
But when they reached Ur-Hekal, the alliance army might not be able to continue advancing because they would face millions of demons here!
Xeron wanted to ensure that the sacrificial ritual in the last eight to nine days could be completed completely. If the alliance army did not know his plan, they would definitely sense their helplessness after probing and retreat when facing so many demons.
Roy understood this, so he drove Raelag in the direction of Ur-Hekal. This way, if nothing unexpected happened, Raelag would be attacking the alliance army in Ur-Hekal.
The relationship between the dark elves and the other races was quite bad, but because it concerned Queen Isabel of Erathia, Roy was certain that what Raelag said would definitely attract their attention. Before they understood, they would at most attack Ur-Hekal tentatively. But after Raelag arrived, they had to think of a way to attack Ur-Hekal with all their might!
This battle would become extremely tragic. If Roy returned now, Xeron would definitely let his troops take the lead. Although the troops he brought crushed the dark elves in number, they were still not enough to face the alliance army. Therefore, Roy would use the excuse of recuperating to stay in the underground world for a few days and not return when the war was at its most tragic. Xeron's eyes lit up, and Roy's eyes lit up.
Such a battle was the best opportunity to collect souls. If Roy did not return, he might lose many opportunities, but it did not matter. Someone would help him collect them, and that was Xeron!
Roy believed that Xeron was ambitious. Every high-rank demon would not give up the thought of becoming a demon lord. Although Xeron had submitted to Kha-Beleth, he would definitely collect souls to continuously increase his strength. In such a battle, it was impossible for him to eat all the souls he collected immediately, so he had to store them in the book of souls first.
And in Roy's plan, Xeron had to die! This way, as long as he killed Xeron, all the souls he collected would be Roy's …
Standing in the middle of the battlefield, Roy wagged his tail and thought about the situation. The only thing he was worried about now was Kha-Beleth.
If he wanted to kill Xeron, there might be a huge battle. If the battle dragged on for too long, it would inevitably lead to Kha-Beleth discovering him. If he suddenly appeared to help Xeron while Roy was fighting Xeron, then Roy would be in big trouble!
Therefore, Roy had to choose the right time to start a war with Xeron!
Now, the most important and worthy of Kha-Beleth's attention was the Child of Taboo in Isabel's womb. This was his top priority, and Roy's greatest advantage now was that he had used the Demon Eyes to spy on the sacrificial chamber and knew how long it would take for the ritual to complete.
If he chose the time to fight Xeron when Isabel was about to give birth, Kha-Beleth might not dare to appear to help Xeron. He would definitely have to wait by Isabel's side to ensure the smooth birth of the Dark Messiah …
Roy's eyes flickered. He decided to appear on the day Isabel gave birth and fight Xeron.
Although Xeron did not know that he was the low-rank demon Osiris, he had always been on guard against him. Or rather, he would not completely trust any of his subordinates now. When he appeared with his troops, he might not have any chance to sneak attack. In that case …
Then let's have a fair and open war!
Xeron and Kha-Beleth did not know that Roy had already spied on the time of the birth of the Dark Messiah. Perhaps when Roy appeared with his troops on the day he gave birth, Xeron's expression would definitely be very interesting!
