Of course, Roy was not stupid enough to devour souls openly during battle. If Xeron were to see it, he would flip out.

Therefore, Roy decided that it was best to use the system’s storage function to hide the souls. It was both covert and swift, and Xeron would not be able to discover it.

After eliminating the AvLee elven village, the army marched on. Xeron rode on a tall nightmare warhorse, his mount, Mordika. This huge nightmare warhorse wore thick armor, and while walking on its four hooves, it left trails of flames behind it that took some time to extinguish. Xeron sat on his warhorse while holding his weapon, a black scythe. With thousands of demon troops escorting him, he looked magnificent.

Over the next few days, the army encountered more migrating elves, and whenever it met them, Xeron would explain the nature of demons to them.

Destruction, all of it was destruction! Not to mention living creatures, even when they arrived at empty villages, Xeron would set them ablaze and raze them to the ground. The trail that Xeron’s demon army had left behind was only blood, corpses, and burnt ashes. Nothing else…

These vile actions naturally incurred the wrath of the elves. On the seventh day of the march, an elven scouting troop discovered traces of Roy and the demon army. These elves should have gone back to report the whereabouts of the demon army upon discovering it. But unfortunately, they were enraged after seeing the bodies of their compatriots!

In addition to wanting to avenge their compatriots, they had also found that this demon army had a large number of siege equipment. So after sending their pigeons to alert the rest, they caught up with the army from behind and launched a raid!

There were not many of them, only about a hundred or so, but since they were a scouting unit, their emphasis was on maneuverability. Therefore, this unit of the elven army was not slow-moving soldiers but all pegasus knights!

 Pegasi were unique to the AvLee elves. Although they resembled ordinary horses, they had two wide wings on their backs. And in addition to being able to gallop on land, they could also fly quickly at low altitude. On every pegasus rode an elven warrior. Although these warriors were light and not considered strong, when they held sharp blades and made use of the high speed of the pegasi to charge, they often caused huge damage to their enemies.

These a hundred-plus pegasus knights launched their attack against the demon army, and their target was clear—the heavy load that the demon army was transporting!

These pegasus knights emerged from midair and swooped down straight for the gigantic catapults. When they flew by, they slashed the weaker support structures of the catapults and destroyed four of them in merely one round of attacks. When the heavy wooden catapults collapsed, they crushed many of the hellhounds nearby.

The pegasus knights flying above the demon army angered Xeron. He would rather lose the army than the siege equipment. With the workmanship of the demons, repairing or even rebuilding them posed a challenge. Without siege equipment, Xeron and his army would be at a loss upon reaching the elven cities. After all, he was leading only low-rank demons and did not have many attacking methods against tall city walls…

Seizing the opportunity while the pegasus knights were circling back at low altitude, Xeron raised his demon scythe and used it as a magic staff. Following his action, a bolt of lightning appeared over the pegasus knights flying in! The lightning first hit one of the pegasus knights’ heads and then struck another pegasus knight behind!

 This bolt of lightning jumped back and forth seven or eight times among the pegasus knights, giving them no time to react before striking them. Every knight struck by the lightning became charred and, together with their pegasus, fell from the sky, turning into meat sauce as they hit the ground.

This spell was Chain Lightning and absolutely powerful!

 Seeing this scene, Roy could not help but pay silent tribute for these pegasus knights. Based on his observation during this time, he discovered that Xeron, this high-rank demon, knew the four magic elements in this world, and at least two magic elements were advanced. One was the earth element, and the other was the air element. The earth magic was when the volcano was detonated, and Roy had seen the Earthquake spell. And the air magic was the Chain Lightning just now!

As for water magic, Xeron seldom used it. But when Roy was summoned, he suffered from the Weakness spell that even negated his Bloodlust, so his water magic was definitely not low level.

As for the final fire magic, Roy had not seen Xeron use it. But Roy was sure that he would because demons from the Abyss of the Demon World were accompanied by magma and fire since birth, and not knowing fire magic was almost impossible for him. Roy even suspected that fire magic might be Xeron’s forte, but he had never shown it…

 This was the part that made Xeron difficult to deal with. He not only knew four magic elements but also at quite high levels. But Roy had never seen Xeron use dark magic. He did not know if it was because the four magic elements were more suitable for army battles, or because this world had rules that restricted the type of magic that was usable.

 Roy guessed that it was the former because he could use Bloodlust whenever he wanted and never felt any suppression by the world’s rules.

Regardless, Xeron’s Chain Lightning had left the pegasus knights nervous and dispersed them. This scouting unit was only a small-scale unit, and there were no elven heroes among them. Someone that appeared to be a leader shouted loudly. This leader was slightly different from the rest. He and his pegasus were both wearing silver armor. And under his command, the pegasus knights began opening distance between themselves, leaving no opportunity for Xeron to continue using Chain Lightning.

Xeron snorted coldly and raised his scythe again, but this time he released a Shield spell on the demon army.

Afterward, Xeron roared at the gogs in the army, “Fire! Take them down!”

 The gogs immediately spat their saliva into their palms and then threw them at the pegasus knights flying in the air. The next moment, large amounts of flames exploded in the sky. These balls of flames did not need to be precise. As long as the pegasus knights were near the explosions, the flames would ignite the pegasus feathers, injuring the pegasi and causing them to fall from the sky immediately. The hellhounds that were anxiously waiting below instantly rushed forward and tore the pegasi and their riders into pieces.

Seeing their comrades being killed made the pegasus knights’ eyes bulge in anger. The silver pegasus knight leader shouted, “Revenge!!” He took the lead to swoop down. Under his lead, the other knights rushed down and engaged in a ground battle with the demon army. They had already cast life and death aside and had no thoughts about returning alive, so they fought fearlessly.

After landing, some of them resisted the attacks of the demon army, while the rest continued to destroy the siege equipment!

 “Don’t let them destroy the remaining catapults. Kill them!” Xeron roared. He tightened his legs around the nightmare warhorse and waved his demon scythe to lead the army forward to kill.

Roy naturally rushed forward as well. He ran into the troop of hellhounds and met up with Fat Tiger before fighting the pegasus knights together.

 Compared to the other low-rank demons, Roy was much bigger and taller, so he attracted the attention of the pegasus knights as soon as he appeared. After two pegasus knights killed the hellhound in front of them, they waved their long swords and stabbed at Roy.

 However, before their long swords could pierce him, they felt that their swords seemed to have become stuck in a quagmire. There was a flexible resistance in their hands that was strenuous to overcome!

The sudden resistance distracted them and slowed their hand movements. The consequence was fatal. The next second, Roy’s claws reached for their throats and ripped them open!

 The pegasus knights died tragically, and their pegasi were not spared either. Roy held down one pegasus with one hand while tearing its wings into pieces using the other hand. Fat Tiger attacked the remaining pegasus. He threw it to the side and used the sharp fangs of his three heads to bite it to death.

Roy discreetly waved his hand and stored the souls of the two pegasus knights into the system. He saw from the corner of his eye that Xeron was on a killing rampage and not paying any attention to the situation on his end, leaving Roy at ease. One demon and one dog charged into the battlefield. They not only killed the enemies that attacked them but also continued collecting the floating souls on the battlefield.

 And every single pegasus knight that confronted Roy encountered the same situation as the two pegasus knights earlier. When they attacked him, it was as though there was an invisible air cushion shield around Roy.

 They did not know that this was Roy using Psychokinesis!

 Roy’s Psychokinesis was a byproduct brought about by the perfect strengthening of the T-Virus. He had not created it himself, so he could not define and change the attributes. Psychokinesis was weak before, and the range of usage was relatively small, so besides using it to show-off, he had never truly used it in combat.

Roy initially thought that the Psychokinesis ability had something to do with mental power, but the problem was that Roy did not have a mental power attribute. As such, he never found a way to enhance Psychokinesis. Even repeated use of it did not seem to improve it. It was not until Roy had discovered that souls could be used to make Magic Energy Growth Potions and took them that he suddenly discovered the power of Psychokinesis had grown!

 At first, Psychokinesis seemed only able to control objects of low mass. But now, Psychokinesis could even control things that were invisible such as air. He could use the power of Psychokinesis to compress air and greatly increase its density to form an ‘air shield’ to protect his front.

This reason for this change was naturally the increase of his magic energy, so it was not until now that Roy realized he was previously mistaken. The body structures of demons and humans were different. Humans might have something like mental power, but for demons, the source of all energy stemmed from the demon heart! The demon heart was where a demon’s energy was created!

 When the Magic Energy Growth Potions increased his magic energy, it naturally strengthened his heart. The stronger heart, in turn, strengthened the power of Psychokinesis.

 After discovering this, Roy was elated. When he had obtained the Psychokinesis ability, he initially thought that the upper limit of this power was not as simple as the way Alice used it in Resident Evil. It should have been like in Saint Seiya, like the Aries Saint, Mister Mu’s Psychokinesis…
