After the three high-ranking demons finished their discussion, Sellon and Riska walked out of the hall and immediately began to gather their troops to prepare for departure.
A large number of low-level demons filed out of the lair and gathered together. Under the leadership of Sellon and Riska, they poured out of the Castlevania. After leaving the Castlevania, the army quickly divided into two groups.
One group is the troops brought by Riska before, and the other is the troops summoned by Sellon himself.
Riska's troops were formed by merging the original Ignatis troops, so their numbers and strength are comparable to Sellon's. These two troops will advance in two directions. Their tasks
They are basically the same, that is, clear out the Avili elves' reconnaissance troops along the way, destroy all human and elven villages in sight, and try to cut off the Aveili elves' supply routes.
Moreover, dividing into two troops has another advantage, that is, it can distract the main force of the Avili elves. After all, whether it is Sellon or Riska, the troops they carry are mainly low-level demons.
, although the number is huge, in fact the combat effectiveness is not very high, and with the help of the Golden Dragon clan, the main force of the Avili elves must be very powerful.
As for the final battle, the two will gather together and wait for Ignatis, who stayed to manage the Castlevania, to arrive with an army of high-level demons.
Roy naturally followed Sellon's troops and moved forward with Sellon.
Among this army, the largest one is the army of little devils, which number at least more than five hundred. As cannon fodder, these little devils are naturally at the front of the marching array. At a glance, they are densely packed with all kinds of little devils.
have.
The second most numerous is a lower-level demon called Gog. This kind of demon is very interesting. Although there are differences between individuals, most of them look like monkeys because their cry is always "Gog, Gog."
"So named, they are the rare demons among lower-level demons who can use flames to carry out long-range attacks. However, this use of flames is not in a magical way, but because they have a special organ in their bodies that can secrete
A flammable liquid is produced as saliva. When the Geges spit their saliva into the palm of their hands and then throw it out, it will rub against the air and eventually turn into an explosive flame.
This kind of attack method determines that they are highly used in the army. This kind of explosive flame is like a grenade. For a large number of low-level enemies, it is simply a nightmare. However, the shortcomings are also obvious, that is, the same
Will accidentally injure friendly forces.
The third type of demon army is the Cerberus Army. There are only about 150 of them. Moreover, these Cerberus are very different from Fat Tigers. Ordinary Cerberus cannot breathe the breath of elements like Fat Tiger.
Their attack method is very simple, which is to bite people with their strong fangs! These hellhounds are relatively large in size, and their fur and muscles appear to be very strong. Both their striking power and bite force are first-rate.
One.
Fat Tiger naturally looks very weird among this group of hellhounds. Fat Tiger can not only breathe out the breath of elements, but also has devil wings. It can now fly briefly. Roy was also worried that Sellon would see it.
The weird thing about Fat Tiger, however, was that Sellon didn't care that much at all. He just made Fat Tiger the leader of the Cerberus unit, and he led these Cerberus in action.
In Sellen's view, no matter how strange the fat tiger is, it is still just a hellhound. For thousands of years in the abyss world, demons like hellhounds can only reach the top level of the middle level, and they are not worth it.
Lun pays too much attention.
Fat Tiger became the boss of the Cerberus army, while Roy was still Serron's adjutant. Lower-level demons were generally not very intelligent. Even marching was a mess, and they only knew how to follow, so Roy
One of his tasks is to assist Sellon in training these lower-level demons during the march, at least so that they can maintain their formation.
This task can be said to be difficult or simple. It is said to be difficult because Roy does not know what formation the demon army should use. It is said to be simple because Roy only needs to see the messy formation during the march.
Just rush in and slap the stray guy back with a few slaps. It's really simple and crude.
With Roy here, Sellon can certainly save a lot of worry, which is one of the reasons why he insists on keeping Roy.
In addition to the messy demons, there are also many special things in this army. They are several huge crossbows and siege engines. The crossbows are commonly known as ballistas, and the siege engines are catapults. These things
, which Sellon prepared to use to attack the city. They were tied with ropes and pulled by dozens of hellhounds, and they moved forward with the troops. It was precisely because of the drag of these instruments that Sellon's troops moved at a slower speed.
Not too fast.
After being in this world for more than a month, Roy gradually learned some information. The current location of this demon army is on the border west of the Kingdom of Erathia, and their goal is to prepare to go all the way east.
, invaded the territory of Erathia and destroyed the capital of the Kingdom of Erathia. At this moment, not only the demon army of hell was in action, but also the army of the undead wizard Sandru and the army of Negan's underground city. These three
The clan is now an ally and coalition.
Although Roy knows that this is a world of invincible heroes, he doesn't know much about the history and background of this world, so he doesn't know which battle he participated in. But it doesn't matter, he just needs to know,
Now the enemy of the demon army is the alliance between humans and elves.
After the troops marched for three days, they were probably hundreds of miles away from Castlevania. When the scouts sent out to explore the road came back and reported that the elves had been spotted ahead, they finally saw the smoke.
When Sellon heard the report, without saying a word, he immediately led his team to catch up.
This seems to be a migrating elf village. Perhaps they learned about the volcanic eruption and the appearance of Castlevania, and knew that this continent was about to face the invasion of demons, so the whole village moved to avoid the demon army, but
Now they are caught up.
These migrating elves did not have the habit of sending out scouts. When Sellon led the demon army to appear from behind them, these elves immediately became confused. The old people and children among them were escorted and fled quickly, and
A group of strong young people in the village stayed to wean them off.
Among these young people, there are stocky mine dwarves and slender wood elves who are good at bows and arrows. Obviously, their choice is obviously wrong. These dozens of people can't stop Sellon's demon army at all. They
They can't resist for long. As soon as they die, the old people and children who escaped will also be caught up.
Demons never showed any mercy, and neither did Sellon. When he saw that these elves and dwarves dared to stay and fight against the demon army, Sellon seemed very angry. He roared and issued an order, causing the little demons to launch a rebellion.
charge.
A group of little demons were very accustomed to fighting. They screamed strangely and rushed towards the elves and dwarves in a chaotic manner. However, what greeted them was the arrows shot by the wood elves first!
The few little devils who rushed at the front were directly pierced by the arrows. Roy, who was standing at the back, could clearly see that the few little devils who were shot through were directly shot to death. They were dying.
At that moment, he let out a shrill scream, and his whole body was suddenly shrouded in the black mist of the Gate of the Abyss, and then his body turned into ashes, leaving only a soul light group that was pulled back to the abyss world by the Gate of the Abyss!
This is the first time Roy has seen the scene when a demon dies in another world. Such a scene cannot be seen in the abyss world. In the abyss world, demons are killed when they are killed, but here, because
Because of the Ouroboros mark, the moment they are killed, they are expelled, their souls will be pulled back to the abyss world, and their bodies will be reshaped, but their injuries will still remain.
Although it is pulled back, there is also a high probability that the soul will be severely damaged. The decrease in strength is a trivial matter. There may also be memory loss. And most importantly, if there happens to be other evil intentions when going back.
If a demon with good intentions is around, it is very likely that he will be killed by other demons and steal his soul immediately after returning.
So generally speaking, demons are not willing to be killed and driven back unless absolutely necessary...
Although the wood elves have sharp archery skills, their number is too small after all. During the charge of the little devils, they only had time to shoot two or three rounds of arrows, and the number of little devils they could kill was quite limited.
When the little devils came closer, the mine dwarves with hammers in their hands took on the responsibility of protecting the elf archers. These dwarves with weapons were extremely powerful. During the fight with the little devils,
They are often able to kill their opponents first.
But they also couldn't hold on for long. There were too many little demons. After a while, these dwarves and wood elves were surrounded by heavy enemies, and then they were beaten to death by the little demons...
The battle ended soon, and when it was time to clean up the battlefield, the little devils were expelled from the world after death, so they would not leave their souls behind, but the souls of the dwarves and wood elves would definitely appear. These souls were expelled by the little devils.
The demons collected them, and although they all looked at these souls with great covetousness, they did not dare to steal them for themselves, and obediently handed them over to Sellon.
After getting these dozens of souls, Sellon was very satisfied. Although there were too few enemies this time, he couldn't enjoy the pleasure of fighting in battle, but it was enough to gain souls.
After some selection, Sellon gave a few of the smallest souls to Roy, and then all the rest were devoured. To Sellon, these dozens of souls could only be considered a target.
It's just a tooth beating ceremony...
Roy took those pitifully small souls and knew that these were the dividends that Sellon gave him. At the same time, he also knew that the first priority contained in the contract signed by Sellon was
There is a trap, that is, Sellon did promise to give him 10% of the soul after victory, but did not specify the quality of the 10% of the soul. He just calculated it based on the quantity.
Although it is a trap, Roy doesn't find it strange at all. There are still loopholes in the thick provisions of human laws in previous lives, let alone the devil's contract. The contract is only as big as a piece of parchment and can be used for many times.
Detailed language to describe the content? In fact, Roy had already thought of the second trap set by Sellon at this time, that is, he could participate in the battle, and then continue to devour it while fighting.
The contract states that the souls of the slain enemies will be harvested after victory in the battle. So, the souls devoured by Sellon before the battle is over are not included in the harvest of victory. Sellon
It won't violate the contract at all...
Although he knew that Sellon had his little plans, Roy was not angry at all, because he knew very well that Sellon could take advantage of the loopholes in the contract, and he could do the same. In other words, as long as Roy participated in the battle, he
He can also devour souls on the battlefield. He can even use the system's soul collection function to absorb all the souls on the battlefield. As long as the battle is not over, these souls will not be counted among the spoils!
You know, the loopholes and traps in the devil's contract are sometimes completely two-way...
