Chapter 51: Step by step
Of course, Roy couldn't go to this kind of work in person, not to mention that he didn't know where the elven city was, even if he knew, if he dared to appear near the city as a demon, it was estimated that he would be greeted by countless arrows.
Roy wasn't going to put his life on the line......
So, the task of delivering the letter, in the end, fell on the foreman, when Roy proposed to let him send this war letter, the foreman was reluctant to go at the beginning of the deadline, he was worried that this was a devil's trick, and wanted to rely on him to find out the location of the city, but Roy said lightly: "If you don't send the letter, then the queen of the Golden Dragon Clan will be killed by our demons, and you will be the culprit!" ”
That's it, the foreman has to go if he doesn't go.
With the war book in his arms, the foreman was on the road, and he was still worried that Roy would follow him, and he looked back from time to time along the way, but he didn't see anything, and he was puzzled.
But in any case, this war letter was finally delivered to the hands of the elves, just as Roy guessed, there was indeed a stronghold of the elves near this area, when the foreman sent this war letter, an elven druid stationed in the city paid great attention to it, because not long ago, he had just received a carrier pigeon from the Pegasus knights who had been completely annihilated, and knew that the demon army had arrived.
He had been thinking about stepping up the training of his troops to resist the demonic invasion, but when he saw this war letter, he was taken aback, and after asking the foreman in detail how he got this war letter, he fell into thought.
After a while, the druid hero asked the foreman, "You mean, it wasn't Serren himself who dictated that made you write this letter, but a strange demon under his command?" ”
"Yes, yes!" The foreman nodded: "Although I haven't seen the demon Serren, but if you want to come to a big demon like Serren, it is absolutely impossible to take twenty or thirty demons to occupy a lumberyard, right?" ”
The druid nodded, and then asked, "Based on your observations, do you think that the demon that sent you the letter was at the behest of Serren?" ”
"That's for sure!" The foreman suddenly said excitedly: "Listen to the tone in the letter, it's simply a declaration of a great demon king!" If it wasn't for Serren's behe, how could the demon have thought of it? ”
The druid hero also agrees with this sentence, the domineering revealed in this war book is simply overwhelming, arrogant, arrogant, and does not shy away from speaking bluntly about destruction and war, as soon as he hears it, he knows that it must be a powerful demon who can say the words, this druid hero of the elven race, at this time, has already believed seven or eight points.
The target of the demons turned out to be the Golden Dragon Queen?? This is a big problem, and you have to warn the people before you can do it.
As an ally of the Kingdom of Erathia, the Aveli Elves could have asked for help from Erathia, but there was recent news from the front line that the lords of the dungeon and the necromancers were besieging the Kingdom of Erathia at this time, and the humans themselves could not spare troops to support the elves and resist the attack of the demons, so they could only rely on the elves themselves.
Their original plan was to defend the cities and rely on the defense of the city walls to block and consume the demon army, so the existing forces were almost evenly distributed among the cities, in this case, the Golden Dragon Queen, another important ally of the elven race, and the lair where she was located, now there is not much defensive power, if it is really attacked by the demons and let the golden dragon queen be killed, then the elven clan is finished!
The dragons are all grumpy guys, and the same is true of the golden dragon clan, once they learn the news of their queen's death, I am afraid that they will immediately withdraw, and even anger the elves, when there is no dragon, relying on the elves themselves, how to deal with the attacks of those high-level demons? ?
Considering the severity of the consequences, the druid hero made a decision, he took most of the main forces stationed in the city with him, leaving only three or two kittens in the stronghold, while he rushed back to the main city of the elves with his troops, and also informed the druid heroes stationed in the other cities to shrink their defenses and prepare to return to the Golden Dragon Queen.
Although I am also worried that this will be another trick of the demons, but it is better to believe it than not, the Golden Dragon Queen is an extremely noble figure, and it is obviously more important than the gains and losses of several cities......
………………
Roy stayed at the lumberyard until Cerberus and the imps had delivered enough timber before leaving the area and returning to Serren's army.
It took a full day to repair the siege equipment, and in this day's time, Serren's troops were also replenished, that is, the troops from the rear Castlevania, Ryska and Serren fought on the front line, and Ignadis, who stayed behind, kept summoning troops in the city, and after the summoned troops accumulated a certain number, they would let them catch up along the advance route of Ryska and Serren, in order to achieve the intention of replenishing the forces for the two.
This group of troops who just arrived, there are about more than two hundred little demons, the number of Gog demons and hellhound demons is about a hundred each, in addition, there are dozens of horned demons and evil gods, among which the evil god is a kind of middle demon, which is summoned by Ignadis in the past few days, and the appearance of these middle demons means that higher-level demons will soon appear.
When facing Serren, the middle demon is naturally respectful, but when facing the lower demon, he is very arrogant, and for the lower demon, they are also shouting and drinking.
Although Roy is Serren's lieutenant, because he is also a lower demon, those evil gods with long whips don't take him very seriously.
Roy didn't care about that, and after continuing on his way, he quietly observed the middle demons.
In the next march, the reconnaissance force of the elven clan never appeared again, but there were many other enemies, most of them were beasts and monsters living in this land, but there were also such as thieves or wandering mercenary groups, although after seeing the demon army, these people fled in a panic, but under the leadership of Serren, the bloodthirsty demons would not let go of any living creature that appeared in their eyes!
The place where the demon army passed was really full of corpses, even if Roy had been in the abyss world for so long and had learned to adapt to this kind of killing, but when he saw this kind of scene, he couldn't help but frown secretly.
After going around and around for another two days, the demon army finally found the city where the Elven Pegasus knights were located before, and Serren had been impatient to find it in the past two days, and as soon as he saw this city built on the edge of the cliff, he couldn't wait to command the demon army to start the siege war......
However, when the battle began, even Serren himself felt that the opponent's defense was so weak.
In this city, the number of elven troops left behind is really not like the defensive force that a city should have, they only have a few arrow towers standing tall, there are elf archers attacking with arrows, and on the city walls, there are a dozen or so slow-moving deadwood guards on them, other than that, there are no other troops to be seen.
Selren felt inexplicable, only Roy knew that his war letter had taken effect, and the elven heroes in this city had withdrawn with a large army......
