It did not take long for Roy to see a few black spots appear in the sky.
These black spots were naturally the giant dragons flying in the sky. Next to them were some smaller spots, which were the silver pegasus knights of the elves.
The dragons were massive. Roy was only seeing black spots now because he was still a distance away from them. But in fact, if you put Roy next to the dragons and compared them, an adult green dragon would be at least ten times bigger than Roy!
Even those five to six meters tall demons had to jump to slash at the neck of the dragons. These dragons were not weak, and there were not many species that could match up to them by just relying on their bodies.
Of course, Roy would not give chase, so he hung far behind and looked down. Roy saw the elven pursuit force on the ground.
Only one elven druid was leading this army. The other two heroes seemed to have led the other troops in other directions, and they were not within Roy’s line of sight for the time being. The green and emerald dragons were the true main force pursuing Xeron. It was precisely because they were flying closely behind him that Xeron could not get rid of the pursuit in the sky.
After Roy observed for a while, the dragons rushed toward the ground, spewed out dragon breath, and then flew back up. In this way, they constantly attacked Xeron, who was running on the ground, leaving him no time to prepare teleport magic to escape.
Now, Xeron was in a bind. He could not understand why the elves were constantly chasing after him.
In fact, in addition to Roy’s letter of challenge that made the elves furious that Xeron actually dared to have the idea of attacking the Gold Dragon Queen, it was also related to the current war situation in Erathia. The Dungeon Lords of Nighon and Sandro’s undead army were currently attacking the kingdom of Erathia. It was in a very strenuous situation and had been constantly asking for reinforcements. Therefore, the elves also hoped to drive the demon army away and free up some manpower to help Erathia. If they wanted to do so, then Xeron, the commander of the demon army, definitely needed to die.
The dragons were snapping at Xeron’s heel tightly, constantly consuming his strength. After he could no longer run, what greeted him was the elven army following behind.
Xeron was not stupid. He could tell what the elves were planning, so his escape route was toward where Rashka should have been in the demon army’s original battle plan. Now, Ignatius had taken Rashka’s place, so he only needed to run to join Ignatius. At that time, not only would he be able to escape the pursuit, but he would also be able to counterattack the exhausted elven army with Ignatius’s forces.
However, the premise was that Xeron could persevere until then!
When Roy arrived, Xeron had been running for a long time now. Even as a high-rank demon, he felt very exhausted. While running, he could not restore his magic power effectively, and the dragons clearly noticed this. From the beginning, they were only harassing with their breaths, but they gradually began attempting to attack him directly.
A gold dragon swooped down and spewed its dragon breath in front of Xeron, forcing Xeron to stop and evade. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the gold dragon stopped flying and landed on the ground, blocking Xeron’s path with its huge body.
“Despicable lizard! How dare you come down?!” Xeron roared as he rushed forward with his demon scythe.
In fact, a dragon had tried to stop him in this way earlier, but Xero had killed and devoured the soul of the green dragon that landed. He had recovered quite a bit of magic power in the blink of an eye. So after that time, the dragons felt that there was no need to fight him head-on and instead continued to harass him. But now, Xeron’s physical strength was gradually becoming exhausted, so the dragons made another attempt, and the gold dragon, the strongest in melee combat, landed.
Xeron was very clear that if he could not kill this gold dragon quickly, more and more dragons would descend. Thus, he mustered his strength and roared angrily as he slashed at the huge front limbs of the gold dragon.
Black hell flames ignited on the sinister demon scythe. With formidable force, it slashed the gold dragon’s steel scales, broke through its strong muscles, and cut directly on its bone!
The golden dragon suffered a heavy injury and roared fiercely.
However, Xeron did not have it easy either. For these kinds of head-on clashes, the smaller demon was naturally at a disadvantage. Although he avoided the dragon claws, he was knocked flying by the impact of the collision.
When he landed, Selron plowed a deep gully in the ground before finally hitting the roots of a large tree and smashing them flying. With a crack, the big tree also broke and slowly fell.
“Puh!” Xeron quickly climbed up and spat out purplish bloody spit. His demon scythe was stuck in the bone of the gold dragon, so he was empty-handed. But it did not matter. Xeron charged at the golden dragon while it was still burning with the hell flames! He used his demon horns and rammed his head against the abdomen of the gold dragon!
In fact, many people did not know that demon horns were not just for decoration. Demon horns would become harder and harder with age. After reaching the level of a high-rank demon like Xeron, the hardness of their demon horns far surpassed the imagination, and they could even break dragon scales!
Demons rarely fought with their horns, and they would use their own soul fragments to make demon weapons instead. They protected and took great care of their horns. But Xeron had no choice but to fight like this now. After all, his demon scythe was stuck in the dragon’s bone and very difficult to retrieve.
This impact directly pierced a big hole in the gold dragon’s abdomen. This place was the position of the dragon’s heart, but unfortunately, Xeron’s horns were not long enough to reach the gold dragon’s heart. Instead of killing the gold dragon with a single blow, a large amount of dragon blood sprayed all over him.
Even so, the golden dragon wailed. It could feel itself losing a lot of blood, and it might not recover even after a hundred years with such a severe injury.
In anger, the gold dragon ignored its injuries, raised a front claw, and smashed down on Xeron!
Boom! Xeron could not avoid it and was pounded into the ground. Under the gold dragon’s powerful force, countless cracks appeared on the ground, and an explosion of sound rumbled.
The gold dragon saw Xeron’s entire body sunk into the ground after removing its claw. He lay on his stomach while spitting out large mouthfuls of blood. His bones were hurting so much that they seemed to be splitting.
Seeing that Xeron was still alive, the gold dragon raised its front limb again and attempted to step on him. Xeron forced himself to turn over and escaped from the pit.
But at this moment, a black shadow flew over and hit Xeron, knocking him directly out of the air!
This attack was from an emerald dragon that had just landed. The dragons felt that the time had come and began to descend. They landed one by one and surrounded Xeron. Even the silver pegasus knights followed them, but they only landed at the periphery to block Xeron from escaping.
After seeing the dragons land, Roy quickly flew closer. He arrived above the battlefield and looked down, watching them encircle Xeron.
“Demon, your death has arrived!” said an emerald dragon. “You will pay the price for your evil deeds!”
Xeron got up while panting. He looked at the dragons surrounding him and the silver pegasus knights waiting in the periphery and suddenly roared!
“Never! Don’t even think about killing me!!!”
With his roar, Xeron squeezed out every last bit of his remaining magic power! A dense black mist appeared around him, and then his body began to swell!
He was overdrawing his magic power in exchange for power. Magic power was not akin to power. It was actually a method of forcefully using magic power to stimulate his heart and increase his power through the accelerated blood flow. In the face of these dragons with high magic resistance, Xeron knew that his remaining magic power would be ineffective, so he simply used it to exchange for power and planned to fight the dragons head-on.
Of course, this method had very bad consequences…
His body continued to swell, and Xeron’s height was almost about to reach that of these dragons. At this moment, he became a giant demon. He roared, rushed forward, clenched his fists high up, and slammed down on the head of the emerald dragon!
A crack resounded all around. His punch actually cracked the emerald dragon’s skull. It fell to the ground without a sound, and its body was trembling. Although it did not die, it lost all of its combat power instantly.
This scene naturally angered the remaining dragons. They were not any worse than demons in terms of fierce fighting. They did not panic at all and charged at Xeron!
The battle was intense, far beyond imagination. Blood splattered into the air as Xeron split the dragons’ scales and tore their flesh while dragons’ fangs and claws left massive wounds on him.
However, the dragons were at a disadvantage overall. Under the powerful stimulation, Xeron’s strength was faintly overwhelming these dragons. Moreover, his combat methods were very rich, and he fully exploited the weaknesses of the bodies of these giant dragons to attack them frequently.
The silver pegasus knights in the periphery were unable to intervene. Seeing the dragons losing, they were very anxious.
But something unexpected happened at this moment. A green dragon suddenly glowed with red light, and the next moment, this green dragon’s body began growing. When Xeron punched it, it actually resisted the power of his fist!
The green dragon did not think too much about the surging power that had suddenly poured into its body. It opened its mouth, bit Xeron’s arm, and then flicked its head, throwing Xeron onto the ground!
What happened?! Xeron was dumbfounded. Why is this green dragon suddenly so powerful?!
But before he could figure it out, red lights also appeared on the other dragons around him, and the dragons began to swell. In an instant, Xeron’s advantage disappeared!
Feeling the great power in their bodies, the dragons were ecstatic. They let out dragon roars and then struck Xeron in unison!
Boom! Xeron, who had just stood up, was smashed down by four or five claws and slammed onto the ground again.
This time, Xeron could no longer get up. Under such an immense impact, the bones in his entire body shattered, and even his internal organs were crushed into a mess.
However, Xeron still had some consciousness. While lying in the pit, he suddenly thought of something.
Red light?! Yes! It’s that elite demon named Osiris. He used this skill when I summoned him!
A green dragon bit Xeron’s arm and pulled him out of the pit. When he came out, the other dragons stretched their heads and bit the rest of Xeron’s body.
Xeron faced the ground and could not look at the sky, but he used his last bit of strength to roar, “Osiris! It’s you! It’s you, right?! I know it’s you! If I had known earlier, I would have…”
What would he have done? No one knew, because before he could finish, the dragons biting Xeron tightened their grips and tore his body into pieces…
To vent their frustration of Xeron killing their companions, the dragons used this method to execute Xeron!
Xeron died. The parts dangling in the dragons’ mouths turned into ashes as a dark mist from the Abyss wrapped around Xeron’s soul and teleported him away!
I really killed Xeron?!
After the familiar repulsive force of the world appeared on him again, Roy immediately understood that the demon contract had lost its effectiveness! Xeron was truly killed and expelled…
