CHAPTER 257: BEGINNING OF THE WAR (PLAN ROY)



Under the setting sun, a golden glow covered the ground.


Under the light of the setting sun, the entire western city wall of Dendera was lined with layers of gold, shining brilliantly like an indestructible holy city.


 


 


While Roy and the others waited for dusk to descend tens of kilometers away, they had no idea that at this moment, Dendera welcomed the familiar face …


In the square behind the town hall, a large number of Tower troops stood and waited in battle formations. Several mages and heroes of the Bradacad kingdom stood still not far from the silver spatial gate, silently gazing at the vortex in the middle of the spatial gate.


The leader of these witch heroes was an old man with a thick white beard, wearing a beautiful robe and a witch's veil. Face seriously.


 


 


Standing beside this old man was a dark blue genie. But unlike ordinary jinn, this one had a flickering lightning.


Moreover, among these magician heroes, there were also long-eared elf guards. This elf guard had a long bow on his back, and his armor tilted, revealing half of his chest. He had long red hair, and his left eye had a battle pattern unique to the elves, making him look extremely fierce.


At the silver spatial gate, the vortex suddenly accelerated and spun. This change made the heroes present come alive, and the troops scattered around started to become tense.


 


 


From the light of the vortex, the skeletal skull of the horse appeared first. Then a black-robed man with a red spider tattoo on his forehead appeared. Needless to say, this was one of the strongest death lords in Heresh: Arantir!


“Good day, everyone!” After exiting the spatial gate, Arantir ignored the serious and wary gazes of the witches. He turned around and released his warhorse skeleton. His right hand held his staff, and his left hand touched his chest as he bowed slightly to everyone. “Servant Asha greets everyone!”


Although the Witches of Bracada did not believe in the dragon gods, the magician heroes did not dare to underestimate the famous death king Arantir and return Arantir's greetings. After the two sides exchanged greetings, the atmosphere slightly eased. The old man in the lead stepped forward and said to Arantir, “Your Majesty Arantir, the kingdom of Bracada has never been friendly with necromancers, but for some reason this time, we welcome you!”


 


 


Arantir's lips formed a smile, as if mocking him. His expression was very subtle. He said politely, “Your Majesty the Astral, I have heard about the tragedy of the Ulambus. I'm very sorry about that. When I was in the Desert of Death, I met that demon. His strength exceeded my expectations. According to my speculation, this demon might want to go to Eeofol. After coming out of the Desert of Death, he must definitely pass through the Dendera Fortress, so I took the liberty to ask for help from your country. I wish I could kill that demon here. This could be considered as revenge for the victims of the Ulambus! ”


When the majestic robed old man heard Arantir mention Ulambus, his face immediately twitched, looking embarrassed.


Although the destruction of Ulambus deserves sympathy, there is no rhetoric that cannot hide the truth of the incident because the witches are the ones who wooed disaster and welcomed demons …


This old man, whom Arantir called Astral, had a very high status and position because he was the leader of the Bracada Mage Guild and an extremely powerful hero. This time, he was ordered to come to the Dendera Fortress to provide support. Due to the Ulambus incident, Bracada's upper echelon was furious. The witches, who had always claimed to be nobles, had completely lost face this time. They had taken out powerful high-level demons in their own country. If this isn't a joke, then what?


“Ahem, Ahem!” Astral coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment before replying, “It is precisely because of the negligence of our various races, the demon who escaped from Sheogh's cage established the demon kingdom in Eeofol. Now Eeofol's demons are getting stronger. If another powerful demon joined their current camp, it would be a disaster for every country. It was indeed necessary to stop and eliminate this demon! Your Excellency Arantir, I am very happy to receive your help. Let your troops out first! ”


Arantir nodded and turned to look at the spatial gate vortex. An invisible mental wave spread out, and then he saw many undead troops continuously emerging from the vortex.


Arantir had gathered this undead army after returning to Heresh. With his reputation in Heresh, many kings of death were willing to sell aid and provide much support.


 


 


Such army portals were generally only built in large fortress cities. In fact, Arantir had brought his troops to teleport from Deyja, the capital of Heresh. It is impossible for a normal small town to do this.


Although Astral hated undead, he had to admit that the undead army brought by Arantir was intimidating. The addition of this undead army undoubtedly makes the Dendera defense force stronger. After seeing the troops brought by Arantir finally teleport, the genie beside Astral said, “Your Majesty Arantir, this city has not only the Bracada army but also our elf allies, as well, so I hope you can hold your undead. After all, conflict is easily broken between the living and the dead. ”.


Arantir looked at the genie and recognized his identity, so he nodded. “Your Excellency Solmyr, you don't have to worry about this. ”


Yes, Jin, known as Solmyr, is a legendary figure who is very famous in the kingdom of Bracada. He was a powerful genie who had existed for countless years. Back then, he had been sealed inside the lamp for over a thousand years because he had killed the previous owner. In order to escape, he had no choice but to acknowledge another master. And this new lord was the ruler of the kingdom of Bracada, Gavin Magnus, known as the Eternal King!


Arantir not only recognized this powerful genie, Solmyr, but also the elf guard next to him, who was watching in silence with his hands crossed. He nodded to the elf guard. “Yang Mulia Gelu, it's great to see you here. With the help of the elves, our chances of winning increased dramatically. ”


Gelu, who was a famous guard among the elves, was also a legendary figure. She is a hybrid of human and fairy, possessing human wisdom and elf agility. He could be considered one of the most famous guerrilla warfare experts in Erathia.


This half-human half-elf was not only extremely trusted by the fairy king, but she was also an important link between the elves and the Erathian kingdom. Since Gelu was once an instructor of Erathia's guerrilla warfare unit, he also received a medal of praise from Queen Catherine Isabel…


With Astal, Solmyr, Gelu, and Arantir, it could be said that the four strongest heroes of the continent had gathered in the Dendera Fortress! This makes Arantir's confidence swell.


 


 


Facing Arantir's greeting, Gelu nodded and said in a deep voice, “Peri peace-loving. With a powerful demon appearing, we will not sit idly by! ”


When the demon army attacked four years ago, the demons almost killed the Golden Dragon Queen of the elves. Although they had once managed to kill demon Xeron, his soul still managed to escape. Everyone knew that the most frightening thing about demons was that if they were unable to completely annihilate their souls, they would return sooner or later. As expected, not long after, Xeron appeared again, making the elves worried.


In fact, there were also guests at the Aglan elf fortress that was tens of kilometers away. They were the Archbishop of Alaric and the human troops sent by Queen Isabel. However, because Alaric's personality is too bad and he may have a conflict with Arantir, he is temporarily stationed at the Aglan Fort and does not come …


The powers of the four countries had gathered to stop that demon!


Gelu had never seen Roy, so he felt they were taking him too seriously. But he also realized that this was a very good opportunity to give a demonstration to the demons. If they could kill that demon here, they might be able to restrain the restless demon, so he still brought troops …


Seeing the massive army formation within the fortress, Astral stroked his beard in satisfaction. “Now, we are just waiting for the demon to fall into our trap. But I don't know when he'll come here. ”


Hearing this, Gelu suddenly said, “Maybe he is already here..”.


“Hah?!” These words made Arantir, Astral, and Solmyr look at him in astonishment.


“I just received word that we lost contact with three patrol teams sent!” Gelu looked up at the sky. “And where they patrol is in the forest of the Angri Mountains in the southeast.”.


 


 


“...” Astral fell silent for a moment before saying, “Since he is here, why did he not appear? Is he planning something? “


“I don't know. Whatever happens, just wait and see! ” Arantir eyes sparkling. “He will definitely appear!”


The night finally descended, and the lightless plains became even more silent and mysterious.


At the same time, in the mountains that were tens of kilometers away, Roy finally moved.


Under Giovanni and Julia's bewildered gaze, Roy took out a few ordinary glass bottles he had just made and placed them on the ground in front of him. After opening the lid, Roy took out Frostmourne and gently rubbed it into his left hand!


In Roy's open palm, blood flowed out. In the dark night, Roy's demon blood emits a faint fluorescence! It was the fluorescence of the purplish red and light green braid
