After a fierce verbal exchange, Roger and Ben finally made a series of preliminary cooperation agreements. After that, the magic merchants of the Tower of the Nine Rings will also organize a group to go to the Oaks Kingdom to discuss in more detail the all-round cooperation between the two sides.

But in this bargain, both sides will be winners.

After bidding farewell to the magic merchant Ben, Roger originally wanted to meet Geralt, the desperate knight, but he was a little regretful to learn that the other party had led the troops to the underground world in the first place.

In this case, Roger is ready to take his troops to the border of the mercenary kingdom.

Although the Dawn Saintess Sarana had already reminded Roger to be careful of the Horned Demon Lord, after careful consideration, Roger still decided to kill the legendary Horned Demon Lord as soon as possible.

Roger's reason for doing this is simple: because the other dragon knights still don't believe that Roger and Kisara are that strong.

After Roger said that he had killed the three wolves of Hell, except for Adrian, who had fought with him, the other dragon knights were actually a little skeptical.

For example, the old magician Ian and the half-elven dragon knight Nack, more or less suspected that Roger was just putting gold on his face, and that the three wolves of hell were actually taken down by Roger and Prince Robin.

Even Adrian, who had fought with Roger, was more or less suspicious in his eyes. So in order to prove his strength, Roger plans to kill the Horned Demon Lord as soon as possible.

While the other dragon knights were still fighting the Hell Lord in a two-on-one fight, Roger, who was single-handed, was the first to kill the legendary Horned Demon Lord, and this kind of information was definitely enough to make people pay attention to Roger.

And relatively. Roger's Oaks Kingdom will naturally be more valued by the major forces, which will enhance the status of the Oaks Kingdom. But there are great benefits.

So, although I also feel that this decision seems a bit too risky. Roger was going to do just that.

Having made up his mind, Roger immediately rode on the back of a Xuanniao with Kisara and led the Divine Bird Legion towards the northern border area of the mercenary kingdom.

When he came here, because the troops under Prince Robin's command were a little slower, Roger's Divine Bird Legion had to accommodate Prince Robin's Elven Legion, and it would take a day and a night to reach the Holy Capital Haven.

After all, there is no teleportation array between the Elven Kingdom and the Griffin Dynasty that can be directly reached.

Prince Robin and Roger had to teleport to the city of Inya, which is located on the border of the Elven Realm, and then march all the way to the border city of the Falcon Principality, and teleport outside the northern border city of the Falcon Principality through the Falcon Principality's teleportation array. Then they marched north to the territory of the Griffon Dynasty......

After such a toss, even the golden dragons and green dragons of the elven clan were a little unbearable, not to mention those delicate elven archers. It is conservatively estimated that when they arrived in the holy capital of Haven, the overall combat effectiveness of the troops under the command of Prince Robin was probably only about thirty percent.

This is still because there are strong dragon troops holding on.

Therefore, at the moment of Roger's magnificent appearance of the Divine Bird Legion, the dragons under Prince Robin were just lazily following Prince Robin, and they had no intention of competing with the Divine Birds. This caused Archbishop Shiba to almost ignore the arrival of Prince Robin.

Now, without the drag of the elven troops, the elemental divine birds, who are tireless and do not need to eat, drink, and sleep, have suddenly completely increased their speed. It only took one night. After several shifts and teleportation arrays, by the dawn of the next day, Roger's Divine Bird Legion had already approached the northern part of the mercenary kingdom.

Under the light of the rising sun. Roger and Kisara, who are in the air and have a very good view. Soon I found the horned demon lord who was tossing the border legion of the mercenary kingdom.

To Roger's surprise, between the flags of those mercenary kingdoms. You can also see some of the legion flags belonging to the Principality of Wolves. These troops, under the banner of the Wild Wolf Principality, are resisting the attack of the Horned Demon Lord together with the legions of the Mercenary Kingdom.

Before Roger could figure out what was going on, Kisara, who had discovered her prey, jumped off the Xuanniao's body, turned into a dragon directly in midair, and then pounced directly on the legendary Horned Demon Lord.

Sighing helplessly, Roger had to take the Divine Bird Legion to intercept the demon guards around the Horned Demon Lord.

Even if it is a brainless horned demon, since it has become a hell lord, it is naturally indispensable to have these powerful demon guards around it. If it weren't for these guards, no matter how strong this Hell Lord was, he would definitely die in the battle between the Hell Lords.

When the boss actually goes out without taking the younger brother, then don't blame others for beating you.

Being able to go to the main plane to spread wild, this Horned Demon Lord is of course a qualified Hell Lord. When its younger brothers saw that the boss was also entangled by a white dragon, they immediately planned to step forward to protect the master.

So Roger had to temporarily act as Kisara's little brother and help Kisara intercept these demon guards.

This Horned Demon Lord's Guard, the race is very complicated. In addition to the hundreds of ninth-order horned demons, there were also forty or fifty eighth-order succubi, and fifty or sixty ninth-order abyss demons.

However, as a legendary-level Hell Lord, there are actually thousands of eighth- and ninth-order juniors around him, which really has to make people wonder if this Horned Demon Lord is a parallel product.

Of course, Roger quickly figured out what was going on: these Hell Lords didn't come to the Lord Plane with their legions, but were sent to their deaths under the orders of the more powerful demon leaders in order to delay time before the gates of Hell were completed.

Even if these hell lords are very powerful, they are just high-level cannon fodder, and naturally they can't bring their own legions over.

It's like the three-headed wolf of hell that was killed by Roger and Kisara, or by corrupting those wolf cavalry and heavy cavalry, he barely managed to get a little bit of the guard. Therefore, this Horned Demon Lord does not have many top-level subordinates around him. Actually, it's quite normal.

But it is precisely because of this, in addition to intercepting the divine birds of these top-level demon guards. Those divine birds that are rushing around in the demon army can be called invincible.

The largest in size. The most ordinary-looking Xuanjiao stood in front of their companions, using their bodies as shields for the other four divine birds. Since the body of the Obsidian is made of obsidian, the Bird has the same three-line magic immunity as the obsidian ghost. However, unlike obsidian goyles, which are immune to air, fire, and water, the birds are immune to earth, fire, and water. With their powerful magical defenses, coupled with the consistently strong bodies of the earth elemental creatures, the Xuanniao can be called "flying city walls".

What's even more terrifying is that because the birds can fly, they don't have the ability to regenerate. So Roger designed the same double-layer armor as the ceramic elements for the birds. This thing is also a special armor after the magic change, and it will burst directly when it breaks, causing a lot of casualties to enemies with flying obsidian shards.

So it took a lot of effort to finally "kill" a Xuanniao The demons will cry without tears and find that the original crumbling enemy actually caused an explosion, and the demon full of blood like the belief in "Brother Chun" was resurrected on the spot.

Can we still have fun together?

However, the shortcomings of the Xuanyao are also obvious: as earth elemental creatures, they can have enough speed to keep up with the rest of the divine birds when they fly in a straight line in the air, but the rest of the time their speed is a little slow, and their movements are not flexible enough.

But just being able to fly is enough to make Xuanniao the ace of the Earth Elemental Legion.

And next to Xuanniao, there is a large piece of red bird that is burned.

The Suzaku that was further strengthened by the Fire Phoenixes did not change much in appearance. However, the wisp of Nanming Lihuo given by the holy beast Vermilion Bird in the past made these top-level troops with the name of Vermilion Bird have a powerful attack power far beyond that of their compatriots. Moreover, while the flames spewed by the Suzaku can attack all enemies in a straight line, the scattered flames will further splash around the enemy, making Suzaku an absolutely powerful clearing machine.

Even the demon troops have not weak fire resistance. Suzaku with an area attack ability is still the group with the highest number of kills among the Divine Birds.

And, don't forget, Suzaku has the resurrection ability inherited from the Fire Phoenix! Seeing that the enemy who had been knocked down stood up again in the flames. The morale of the demon troops is constantly decreasing. The enemy that can't be killed is obviously the most troublesome.

And was protected by the Xuanniao and the charging Suzaku. It is a snow-white white phoenix.

Compared with the simple and rough Vermilion Bird, the white phoenix of the water system is much more elegant. But. Don't be deceived by its elegant posture, the white phoenix is definitely above the Suzaku as a threat to the demons!

As a member of the Divine Bird Legion, the white phoenix of the water system is the most vulnerable of all the divine birds. But beneath that fragile body, there is the most powerful magical ability hidden. The white phoenix can cast all the water strategy magic, and it can be regarded as a divine bird-type water hero! In addition to this, the white phoenix is able to spit ice water. Naturally, this combination of ice and water will not do much damage, but enemies hit will have to face one of the three special effects: "Wet", "Frost", and "Freeze".

In addition, the white phoenix has a cold aura, and all enemies within the range of the aura will be tested by the cold aura, and the effect of the cold will gradually increase over time.

If you can't defeat the white phoenix in a short time, then you will be frozen into an ice sculpture like those unlucky demons.

The body of Qingluan soaring in the sky is not much stronger than that of the white phoenix, but Qingluan's positioning is a ranged attack class, and like the Heavenly Thunder element, the lightning that shoots out is like a chain of lightning that damages three enemies. Qingluan, the fastest and capable of spewing lightning arrows, will be the best choice for the hero general to use kite tactics.

In addition, as the darling of the sky, Qingluan will constantly apply group attack boost, group 100 hits, and group atmospheric shield to allies, which will make Qingluan a favorite of generals who like to use ranged troops.

But that's just it, Roger doesn't feel like that's enough. At his suggestion, Wendy, the hero of the wind, gave Qingluan the ability to cast the "Titan Arrow". Qingluan can choose to release three Titan Arrows, or combine the three opportunities to release a super powerful Titan Arrow.

There are only three chances, making it impossible for this ability to pose a sufficient threat to mid- to high-tier classes. However, the powerful Titan Arrow will definitely allow Qingluan to inflict lethal damage on other top-tier troops.

As an unplanned product, the comprehensive combat power of the Golden Crow is the weakest among the Divine Birds. And Roger's positioning of the Golden Crow is a healing unit.

The Golden Crow, which radiates the power of light at all times, has a purifying aura, healing light, and resurrection abilities. The Purifying Aura continuously dispels negative magic from allies and increases their defenses with the power of light. The ability to heal light and resurrect allows troops to have a stronger ability to sustain combat.

Although it is not indispensable, the addition of the Golden Crow will undoubtedly make the Divine Bird Legion even stronger.

The powerful divine birds rushed left and right in the demon troops, making the demons embarrassed. Under such a powerful threat, the demon troops directly abandoned the original Terran enemies, and instead resisted the attack of the Divine Bird Legion with all their might.

In this way, this Terran legion was ignored by the demon troops and the Divine Bird Legion, and the mercenary kingdom legion and the suspected wolf principality's troops, who were originally inseparable from the demons, were suddenly a little overwhelmed.

Looking at the divine birds who were fighting with the demons, the eyes of these people were full of confusion: What is the situation?

Commanding the Divine Birds to suppress the Demon Troops, and then looking at the Horned Demon Lord who had been suppressed by Kisara, the bored Roger jumped directly from the Xuanniao.

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, Roger jumped directly in front of the heroic general of the mercenary kingdom. The guards, who were startled by Roger falling from the sky, immediately raised their weapons and pointed their weapons at Roger.

However, this move was hurriedly stopped by their generals.

Scolding the guards to lay down their weapons, as the leader of this unit, Kleina looked at Roger with some strange eyes.

Unexpectedly, the general of this army would be an acquaintance, Roger was also surprised, but he immediately pointed to the troops of the Wild Wolf Principality and asked, "Little Klena, what is the matter with those people from the Wild Wolf Principality?" ”

"After discovering that there was actually a Hell Lord lurking in his troops, Magellan, the famous general of the Wild Wolf Principality who commanded this army at that time, surrendered directly to us." Kleina spread her hands and explained helplessly, "Magellan himself even pleaded guilty to us, and was willing to accept the judgment of the Holy Light, only asking us to take in his subordinates. ”

"Holy Light Judgment? Accepted the Holy Light Trial, even if he has nothing to do with the demons, his strength will be completely abolished. is willing to use such a big price to save the lives of his subordinates, no wonder he can win the sincere love of his subordinates. Hearing this, Roger couldn't help but shake his head.

"Well, it is precisely because of this that after he passed the investigation of the Church of War, His Majesty Alice directly canonized him as a baron and let him continue to be in charge of that army. However, the time is too short, and before he has time to change his banner, we will have to fight this Hell Lord. Kleina is also full of admiration, "loving soldiers like sons" is easy to say, but there are really not many generals who can do it.

"Urgent! I have an emergency military situation! ”

Just as Roger and Kleina began to talk about their daily routines, a herald dressed as a wolf principality hurried here on horseback. Without waiting for the horse to stop, he roared anxiously while holding the white flag: "Is it Kleina, the arrow of the wind of the mercenary kingdom!" Please save us! ”

"What's going on?" Stopping the suspicious subordinates, Kleina asked very calmly.

"That's right, the Lord of El and his lords who fled all the way from Grace City were intercepted by the demon forces not far ahead. General Giles is desperately resisting, but he may not be able to hold back for long. The herald said eagerly, "The Lord of El has said, now only you can do us!" Please help us! The lord of El is willing to surrender with all his lords! ”

Roger and Kleina couldn't help but glance at each other, frowning in unison. (To be continued.) )
