Under Roy's bewitchment, Xeron's battle for heads began.
In order to speed up the march, Xeron left behind a small number of troops to escort the siege equipment and slowly catch up. Under Roy's efforts, this task was given to Fat Tiger. Fat Tiger led a group of hellhounds and little demons to escort these equipment.
Fat Tiger was a little reluctant to be separated from Roy and kept rubbing against Roy's leg. However, the reason why Roy asked him to escort the equipment was because he did not want him to enter a dangerous place. It had to be known that this demon army could encounter the assembled elven army at any time. On the chaotic battlefield, Roy was worried that something would happen to Fat Tiger, so he asked him to stay behind and slowly catch up.
After increasing the speed of the march, the effect was immediate. The AvLee elves were evacuating civilians due to the invasion of the demon army. There were scattered villages everywhere, and they were evacuating to the main elven city in the east. It was possible for these elves to retreat to the cities in the territory before the demon army arrived. However, Xeron's demon army suddenly sped up, catching many of the migrating elves off guard and catching up halfway.
If these migrating elven tribes could only be regarded as snacks, then the main elven army they encountered on the fourth day was a feast.
This was an army led by a druid lord named Uland. The target of the demon army was the Gold Dragon Queen, and they had even arrogantly issued a challenge to the elves. This news had now spread throughout the elves, and the druid lords everywhere were naturally furious. In order to prevent the demons from succeeding, they had already evacuated from the cities they were stationed in and rushed to support the gold dragons' lair.
The Gold Dragon Queen's lair was about 50 kilometers away from the main city of the elves, Midhannah. It was basically in the same direction as Midhannah, which was in the east. Now that Xeron was leading his troops in this direction, it was not strange for them to bump into the retreating elven troops.
The army led by Druid Uland was very large, almost on par with Xeron's army. When the two sides encountered each other, a fierce battle began.
In this battle, the high-rank demon Xeron displayed extraordinary magic strength. He did not use magic much when he encountered small-scale troops, but he could not do so now. If he let the troops fight on their own, even if they won, the casualties would be severe. Therefore, as soon as the battle began, Xeron, surrounded by his troops, raised his demon scythe high, and the light of magic flashed continuously. Then enchantments such as Divine Shield, Stone Skin, Fire Shield, Bloodthirsty Massacre, and Hundred Shots continuously appeared on the demon army.
Roy was naturally enchanted. At this moment, he could not help but be surprised by Xeron's magic power. Perhaps in terms of strength alone, Roy could barely beat Xeron after using Bloodlust on himself, but once Xeron's powerful magic strength appeared, he could easily reverse the situation.
Even demons had a limit to their physical strength, but magic was different. Not only could it enchant oneself, but it could also weaken the enemy. This would lead to a huge difference in combat power. Roy, a low-rank demon, could easily fight against the middle-level elves after being enchanted with all kinds of magic.
In addition to the pit dwarves, wood elves, and silver pegasi that Roy had seen before, there were also many withered tree guardians and unicorns in Druid Uland's army!
These unicorns were snow-white horses. They were strong and looked very sturdy. On their foreheads was a long spiral sharp horn. When these unicorns gathered together and charged, it was quite terrifying. The demon army could be smashed into pieces at any time, so these unicorns naturally became the priority targets of the demon army.
Before the unicorns could charge, Xeron had already cast Slow on them, causing thick mud to appear under their feet and seriously affecting their speed. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Roy, a group of long-horned demons, and evil gods quickly surrounded them and began to kill them.
Roy was facing a unicorn. This creature exuded a … pure aura, making Roy, a demon, very uncomfortable. After all, in the legends, unicorns were holy creatures that restrained demons, so Roy was very careful at the beginning. Although the unicorn could not charge, it could shake its head violently and attack with the long horns on its head. He was much taller than the unicorn, so the area he was exposed to was naturally larger, and it was easy for the horns to cut him.
However, when they really started fighting, Roy found that this unicorn did not seem to be much …
When Roy tried to attack the unicorn from the side, the unicorn's long horn swung at him. However, Roy had Xeron's Stone Skin and Divine Shield on him, in addition to the air wall set up by his Psychokinesis to block, so after being hit, he only felt a little tightness in his chest!
For a moment, Roy's confidence increased greatly. He stretched out his tail and clamped down on one of the unicorn's hind legs. Then he pressed his hands on the unicorn's neck and pushed hard, flipping the unicorn over!
When the unicorn fell, it let out a wail, and its weight of hundreds of kilograms hit the ground with a loud bang. When it waved its four hooves and struggled to get up, Roy's right claw had already stabbed into its neck.
Bright red blood immediately dyed the pure white fur red. Roy did not give it a chance to turn around. His claws kept stabbing and killing the unicorn.
There was no room for mercy on the battlefield where only one side could survive …
After the unicorn died, a soul quickly floated out. Just looking at the size of this soul, it was pitifully small!
It was a legendary holy creature, but there was nothing special about its soul. It should be known that the size and quality of a soul had nothing to do with the creature's strength, but was related to the creature's intelligence. Although a unicorn was holy, it was actually a very simple creature. It was more like a wild beast than an intelligent creature, so it was not strange that its soul was small.
However, to Roy, no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still meat. On this chaotic battlefield, it was the perfect time for him to harvest souls wantonly, so he would not let it go. After quickly storing this soul into the system, Roy immediately pounced on the next opponent nearby.
On the battlefield, Druid Uland could be said to be completely suppressed by Xeron's magic. As an elf, Uland liked nature and peace very much, so he was fundamentally different from a demon like Xeron. Xeron was a high-rank demon who liked to fight and kill, and his practical use of magic was much higher than Uland's. Although Uland was doing his best to use magic to assist his troops, he was far inferior to Xeron in both the quality and quantity of magic.
Xeron casually released a buff spell that covered a larger area and lasted longer than Yoland's. Even his casting speed was faster than Yoland's. Under such circumstances, how could Yoland contend against Xeron?
Even though the number of troops on both sides was about the same at the beginning, as time passed, the disadvantage of the elves gradually appeared. The demon army had many magic buffs, and their combat power increased greatly. Often, a demon could kill two, three, or even more elven enemies. Even the thick-skinned Withered Tree Guardians were killed one after another under the siege of the demons.
Uland was not a fool. He realized that he could not win if this continued. In order to preserve his troops as much as possible, he stopped using buff spells and began to summon firewalls on the battlefield, trying to separate the two sides.
Raging flames appeared on the battlefield, and Uland began to take the opportunity to gather his troops and prepare to escape.
Of course, Xeron was not willing to let Uland escape, so he frequently used Chain Lightning to attack Uland's remaining troops. However, Chain Lightning did not distinguish between friend and foe. If they were too close, even his own people might be attacked.
Roy was wandering on the battlefield, seizing souls while Xeron was not paying attention. However, a Chain Lightning suddenly jumped over and landed on him.
The speed of the lightning was too fast. By the time you saw it, it was often too late to dodge, and you would be electrocuted until your entire body was paralyzed!
Fortunately, this Chain Lightning was at the end of the jump, and it was not very powerful, so it only paralyzed him and did not turn into charcoal like the elves who had just been struck. But even so, Roy could not move for a while. If not for Uland gathering his troops and preparing to retreat, he would have been besieged by now.
After a while, Roy recovered from the numbness. He gritted his teeth and sped up the process of collecting souls.
Roy had already thought about it. In this world of magic, it was necessary for him to get a set of anti-magic equipment for himself. Now that he was struck by Chain Lightning, this thought became even more urgent.
