Searching for a lumberyard
Psychokinesis, i.e. the ability to intervene in the movement of a material system through the mind, theoretically, both the matter of the macroscopic world and the matter of the microscopic world can be intervened by Psychokinesis
Although the air is invisible, it is a material that does exist. Although Roy is not yet able to manipulate the various molecules of the air with the power of his mind, he is able to cover an area of air with the power of his mind and then compress it, which is the principle of the air shield.
With such a buffer layer, there are many benefits for Roy in a melee, after all, he now focuses on close-quarters combat, and naturally meets the enemy head-on more often, when the enemy's attack is buffered by even 0.1 seconds, it will give Roy more time to react.
Killing the enemies and rolling away the scattered souls nearby, Roy fought while keeping an eye on the situation over there in Saeren.
As expected, Roy guessed it right, this time when he personally participated in the slaying battle, Saeren showed great excitement, the devil's belligerence was manifested to the fullest extent in him, the spattering of blood all around made Saeren's pair of devil's eyes turn red and terrifying, as he kept on killing enemies, he also kept on letting out his manic roar.
A soul, from the side of the body of a Pegasus Knight killed by him floated out, Saeren opened his mouth, and with a whir, he sucked the soul into his mouth, the soul of the Pegasus Knight's fear of death, turned into an incomparably wonderful taste lingering in Saeren's mouth, letting him gasp a mouthful of air, and then his hands rose up his scythes to reap the lives of his enemies once again.
Yes, as Roy had suspected, Saeren was killing his enemies and devouring souls on the battlefield at the same time. In fact, it was not only the loophole in the Demon Contract that prompted Saeren to do so, but there was another reason as well, and that was the high-ranking demons that Ignatius, who had stayed behind in the Demon City, was about to summon.
If you want to kill the Queen of the Golden Dragon, then Saeren must have a high-class demon army as a help, but the summoning of high-class demons also has a price, Saeren, three of them must be obtained souls and then let some out to the high-class demons, so now the situation is that Saeren feel that their expected earnings become less, so try to find ways to intend to salvage back on the battlefield.
In fact, Saelen now have some regrets, regret should not and Roy contract, promised to give him that 10% of the dividends, at that time he originally thought by relying on the huge number of low-ranking demons, should be able to complete the task, so he felt that to give a little bit of dividends, can let Roy this elite demons for him to use it is also quite good, which know that Ignatius they came, but brought the news of the existence of the Queen of the Golden Dragon.
In this way, compared to the other two upper level demons, Riska and Ignatius, Saeren would have to share one more share of the soul revenue, and of course, he would feel bad about it.
Undoubtedly, he is now going to make up for the loss, then naturally have to make up for this evil contract on Roy, so he is fighting, while desperately devouring souls, while the battle is not yet over, can get one more is one.
However, what he does not know is that Roy looked at his behavior of devouring souls while fighting, not only did not get annoyed, but was somewhat pleased.
Eat, eat, I don't believe you can remember how many souls you have swallowed when you are desperately trying to reap the benefits!
After all, the number of Pegasus Knights is fixed, if they have been totally annihilated, then how many corpses there are, how many souls there should be, if only Roy is salvaging the souls, then Saeren will be able to find out once he counts them, but now Saeren himself is devouring them, and when the battle is over, the number of corpses and the number of souls don't add up, so he won't be able to detect it.
Now, Roy can rest assured to capture the souls, he specializes in selecting those souls more places to run over, while occasionally find a Pegasus knight as a rival, while also in the mouth of the roar and growl, seems to fight very hard, but in fact it is just to collect the nearby souls.
After collecting more than 40 souls one after another, the battle on the battlefield was coming to an end, and only then did Roy stop.
This troop of Pegasus Knights was almost slaughtered, since they didn't choose to run away, the demons naturally wouldn't show any mercy, more than two hundred Pegasus Knights were all buried here in the end.
However, although all of them died in the battle, they also caused a lot of losses to the evil army of Saeren. The Pegasus Knights are considered as a middle-ranking type of soldiers in the Elven army, and their killing power is still quite strong, Saeren's evil army killed hundreds of small demons in this attack, and more than a dozen Cerberus dogs were killed as well.
However, the biggest loss was the siege equipment. The ten stone throwing wagons that Saeren brought with him were half destroyed by the Pegasus Knights, and three bed crossbows were also lost, so much so that after the battle was over, when Saeren looked at the scattered parts of these destroyed siege equipment, he couldn't stop his anger from surging up.
He knew that his march would be delayed. ...
When the little devils collected all the souls floating around on the battlefield and offered them to Salem, although Salem felt that it seemed to be a little less, but he really didn't pay much attention to it, he really didn't count how many souls he had swallowed before.
In addition, because he felt that no one would have such great courage, dare to steal and swallow the souls belonging to him Saeren ....
As a superior devil, Saeren is too confident, how would he know, not only someone dares to steal his soul, and steal the soul, not one or two, but more than forty!
More than two hundred Pegasus Knights, finally fell in the hands of Saeren, only more than one hundred and sixty souls, and Saeren also want to share out sixteen or so souls, rewarded to Roy, this come and go, equivalent to Roy finally got his hands on more than fifty souls!
And this is only a small-scale battle, if the scale of the war is a little larger, Roy estimates that he can get more souls.
Receiving the sixteen souls handed over by Saeren unwillingly, Roy pretended to greedily stuffed all of them into his mouth and devoured them, but in reality he used the system's acceptance function to store them first.
After he finished eating, Roy even said to Saeren with a satisfied expression, "Thank you for your generosity, Lord Saeren! Your violence and bravery is a model for the Demon Clan!"
Being patted on the back by Roy, Saeren finally felt better, this kind of words would never appear in the mouths of those other low-ranking demons, so he smiled broadly and said, ''Okay, now I have a task for you, as you can see, these damn Averie Elves' scouting troops have destroyed our catapults, now we have to repair them, then I will bring my troops to station here temporarily! I will bring my troops to stay here for a while, so take some men and look around to see if there is any Elven lumberyard, go and get some timber back to repair these catapults!
"Yes, Lord Saeren!" Roy slightly bowed his head, indicating that he would accept the order, and only after facing Saeren and withdrawing a little distance away, he turned around and left to gather his men.
For repairing siege equipment, Saeren is actually very impatient, in the past, when he encountered this kind of trivia, he could only do it himself, but now there is Roy, such a smart devil, Saeren naturally can be lazy as long as he can be lazy.
Roy took Fat Tiger, ten or so hellhounds and twenty or so small demons with him and left the camp to look for a lumberyard.
Saeren was lazy and let him out to act, this would have been a good opportunity to escape, but Roy did not intend to do so, now the demons invaded the border of the Kingdom of Elasia, mankind and their allies elves have entered into a state of war, if you run away at this time, if you are not careful to meet with the army, what to do? A lone demon will only end up in front of a large number of enemies.
Moreover, in order to activate the Summoning Array, Roy must have a lot of magic power. His first and foremost task now is to get involved in the army of demons and save up enough souls to strengthen his magic power.
Although he didn't intend to run away, this time, leading a team alone to look for the lumberyard was also a very good opportunity for Roy.
A very good opportunity for Roy to get into a trap. ...
