Of course, Roy certainly could not deliver this kind of letter personally. Aside from the fact that he did not know where the elven city was, even if he knew, if he dared to appear near the city, what would greet him would be countless arrows.

Roy did not intend to risk his life over this

Therefore, the responsibility of delivering the letter fell on the foreman. When Roy asked him to deliver the letter of challenge, the foreman hesitated and found excuses to decline. He was worried that this was the demons ploy, wanting to use him to find the location of the city. But all it took was for Roy to say casually, Okay, if you dont deliver the letter, we demons will kill the Gold Dragon Queen, and you will be the culprit!

After hearing this, the foreman had no choice but to go.

With the letter of challenge in his arms, the foreman set off. Worried that Roy was following him, he frequently looked back to check. But after realizing that no one was behind him, he was puzzled.

In any case, the letter of challenge was delivered to the elves. As Roy had guessed, there was an elven settlement nearby. When the foreman had arrived with the letter of challenge, an elven druid stationed in the city attached great importance to it because he had recently received the pigeons sent by the annihilated pegasus knights and knew that the demon army had come.

He had originally planned to step up the training in preparation to resist the invasion of the demons, but he was shocked when he saw this letter of challenge. After asking the foreman in detail how he got this letter, he fell into deep thought.

After a while, the druid hero asked the foreman, You mean the one who dictated this letter was not Xeron himself, but a weird demon under him?

Yes, yes! The foreman nodded. Although Ive never seen Xeron, its impossible for a great demon like Xeron to bring twenty demons to occupy a sawmill, right?

Druid nodded in agreement. Based on your observation, do you think the demon who sent you to deliver this letter did it under Xerons instructions?

Of course! The foreman continued agitatedly, Look at the tone of that letter. Its simply the declaration of a great demon! Without Xerons instructions, how could that demon have thought of it?

The druid hero agreed. The domineering attitude shown in this letter was that of arrogance and aggressiveness, speaking bluntly about destruction and war. Just reading it was sufficient to know that only a powerful demon could have spoken these words. The elven druid hero had already mostly believed it.

The demons target turned out to be the Gold Dragon Queen? This is trouble. I have to warn the others immediately.

As an ally of the kingdom of Erathia, the AvLee elves could have asked for reinforcements. But from the news of the frontlines, the Dungeon Overlords and necromancers were besieging Erathia. The humans could not spare any troops to help the elves, so the elves could only rely on themselves to resist the attack of the demons.

Their original plan was to guard each city and rely on the city walls for defense to stop and consume the demon army. Therefore, all their troops were evenly deployed among the cities. Under these circumstances, another important ally of the elves, the Gold Dragon Queen and her nest, did not have much defense now. If the demons really surprised attacked and killed the Gold Dragon Queen successfully, then the elves were finished!

Dragons were all temperamental, and so were the gold dragons. If their queen were to die, they would immediately withdraw after hearing about it and maybe even take out their anger on the elves. Without the dragons, how could the elves alone deal with the attacks of the high-level demons?

After considering the severity of the consequences, the druid hero made a decision. He brought with him the majority of the troops stationed in the city, leaving only a few soldiers at strategic locations, and rushed back to the elven capital. At the same time, he notified the other druid heroes stationed in other cities to shrink their defense lines and return to protect the Gold Dragon Queen.

Although he was worried that this could be a ploy by the demons, he would rather believe it than not believe it. The Gold Dragon Queen was incomparably honorable and definitely more important than these cities

Roy remained in the sawmill and waited until the hellhounds and little demons had shipped sufficient wood back to Xerons army before leaving.

Repairing the siege equipment took an entire day. During this time, Xeron had received reinforcements from the demon city from the rear. Rashka and Xeron were fighting on the frontlines, leaving Ignatius in the city to continue summoning demons. After the summoned troops accumulated to a certain extent, they would catch up along the advancement routes of Rashka and Xeron to reinforce their forces.

This batch of troops that had just arrived had over two hundred little demons, consisting of equal numbers of gogs and hellhounds. In addition, there were tens of long-horned demons and evil spirits. These evil spirits were one of the types of middle-ranks demons that Ignatius had summoned in the past few days. The appearance of these middle-rank demons meant that high-level demons would be appearing soon.

The middle-rank demons were naturally respectful when facing Xeron, but they were arrogant when facing the low-rank demons and bossed them around.

Although Roy was Xerons adjutant, he was still a low-rank demon, so the evil spirits with whips did not take him seriously.

Roy did not care. After continuing on the road, he quietly observed these middle-rank demons.

As the march continued, elven scouts never appeared again. However, there were many other enemies, most being the wild monsters and beasts that lived on this land. There were also thieves and stray mercenaries that appeared. Although they panicked and fled upon seeing the large demon army, the bloodthirsty demons under the lead of Xeron would never let any living creature out of their sights alive!

Wherever the demon army passed, corpses were strewn all over. Even if Roy had spent so long in the Abyss and had learned to adapt to the frequent killings, such a sight still bothered him.

After two days later, the demon army finally found the city where the pegasus knights were stationed. Xeron had been impatient these two days and could not wait to command the demon army to siege the city, which was built on the edge of a cliff.

However, once the battle began, even Xeron wondered why the opponents defense was so weak.

The number of elf troops that remained in this city was much fewer than what a city should normally have. On the tall arrow towers were only a few elven archers, and on the city walls stood tens of slow-moving dendroid guards. Apart from these, there were no other soldiers in sight.

Xeron was baffled. Only Roy knew that the letter of challenge he sent had taken effect. The elven hero in this city had already withdrawn with the troops
