Chapter 242 Roy’s Army Magic

When the afternoon sun gradually sank under the sand dunes, night began to fall. At night, in the desert, if there was no sandstorm, then the night sky was very clear, and this night would be a full moon, making the moon in the sky especially bright and clear.

Demons hated sunlight, but they greatly enjoyed the moonlight, for the light of the moonlight could make demons energetic and comfortable. When Roy was in the Pirates of the Caribbean world, he often enjoyed bathing in the moonlight, but the weather in the sea was always unpredictable. When the clouds drifted over, they would block the moonlight. How could it be as comfortable as in the desert?

Roy lay on Fat Tiger’s back and let him carry him on the march. At night, the army did not need the Cover of Darkness. He bathed in the moonlight and looked at the books that drew his interest. Occasionally, he would look up and see the shadows and gullies on the moon clearly.

Looking at the full moon, Roy could not help but recall the legends he had seen in the books. Legend had it that after the Creation Goddess

—the Dragon of Order, Asha-sealed and imprisoned her brother—the Dragon of Chaos, Urgash-she retreated to a safe corner of the moon.There, she rested, healed, and dreamed. The people of Ashan believed that the moon was, in fact, the cocoon she wove around herself. It was an image of the cosmic egg, a means to measure time, the final resting place of the dragons, and the gate to the Underworld. Therefore, for the three aspects of Asha, people had also given symbolic explanations to the waxing and waning of the moon. They believed that a half moon represented the new life aspect of Asha, the full moon represented the life growth aspect of Asha, and the new moon represented the dark aspect of Asha…

So when Roy looked at the bright full moon in the sky, he could not help but wonder if there really was a dragon god known as the creator in this moon?

The reason why Roy said that ‘known as the creator’ was because he did not believe that this dragon god was the true Creator… Roy had gone to many worlds through Gates of the Abyss and learned about the so-called Creator through various channels. In Roy’s opinion, Asha, this dragon god, might only be the creator of the world of Ashan. No one in other worlds had heard of her name.

Compared to the true Creator, who created angels, demons, and the Infinite Worlds, she was just a younger brother… oh, it should be a younger sister… Just as Roy was thinking this, he suddenly found… black shadows appearing in the night sky!

These black shadows seemed to be birds that flew silently in the sky. But under the bright moonlight, their figures had nowhere to hide. When Roy saw them, he could see that these ‘birds’ all had strong radiation sources.

“Stop!” Roy snorted coldly and stood up. “We seem to have guests!”

Hearing Roy’s command, Cassandra immediately stopped the undead army’s march. Julia also looked up at the night sky and asked doubtfully, “Those things look like… bats?”

“They’re not bats. They’re vampires!” Roy was now certain what those fellows in the sky were.

Hearing this, Julia immediately giggled. “Isn’t that just right? Didn’t you want to find some high-level undead to fill in the army? These vampires are just right!”

Roy shook his head. “There are about five hundred of these vampires, and there shouldn’t be so many wild vampires. They should belong to a certain necromancer. It’s probably very difficult to control them.” Cassandra nodded. “It seems that these vampires should be a reconnaissance team… But this kind of night isn’t really suitable for reconnaissance.”

Roy and the others were judging the vampires below. In the sky, although Vampire Count Giovanni could not hear Roy and the others, he saw that the undead army below had stopped moving, making him realize that they might have been discovered.

“This damn moonlight…” Giovanni was a little angry. He originally wanted to monitor them secretly from high in the sky. But vampires did not have the ability to turn invisible like dark elf assassins, where it was impossible to be discovered.

A bat transformed into a vampire, flew beside Giovanni, and asked for instructions, “Your Excellency, that undead army is almost entirely composed of low-level undead, and it doesn’t pose a threat to us. Do you want to go down and attack directly?”

The bat that Giovanni had transformed into was much larger than the other vampires. He flapped his wings and looked down with twinkling eyes.

Vampires also had dark vision, not to mention that their vision was very clear under such bright moonlight. Giovanni naturally saw the undead army below, but at the same time, he also saw the enormous three-headed hellhound below and the three figures on its back.

A demon, a fallen angel, and a lich? What kind of strange combination is this?

In the world of Ashan, it was rare for fallen angels to appear because the angels in this world were extremely powerful. Once the angels discovered fallen angels, they would immediately execute them or take them back for purification.

Under these circumstances, even Count Giovanni, a vampire who had lived for nearly a thousand years, had never had dealings with fallen angels. But even so, he still understood that fallen angels were very strong.

Now that such a strange combination was marching with a small undead army in the desert, Giovanni was unable to make sense of what Roy and the others were doing. So even though he heard his subordinate’s words, he was hesitant about whether he should go down.

Although Arantir had dispatched him as the vanguard, Giovanni did not have the slightest intention of being loyal to Arantir. Among the vampires, Giovanni’s count status also belonged to a lord, but this lord status was only the internal recognition of the vampires. In the kingdom of Heresh, he had yet to truly be recognized and conferred.

Therefore, he chose to work under Arantir, but he had never been truly loyal to Arantir, and he had his own ambitions. He was waiting, waiting for Arantir to summon a gigantic undead army. He planned to assassinate him to replace him and then take over this gigantic army. As long as he returned to Heresh with this army, he would be able to obtain the position he wanted.

When he was ordered to search and investigate earlier, he had already made up his mind. If the enemy was weak, he would directly kill the enemy with his vampires. But if the enemy was powerful, he would not let his vampires consume the enemy head-on.

But the current situation was that the enemy’s troops were all low-level undead and looked easy to bully. But in this army, there was a demon and a fallen angel. Giovanni could not feel the strength of the demon and fallen angel, so he was quite hesitant.

He just flew in the sky with his vampire subordinates, neither coming down nor leaving

Roy was originally full of anticipation for these vampires to attack. But seeing this situation, he was a little irritated. Knowing that they were here to scout and monitor him, Roy naturally did not want them to continue following.

“Okay. Since you won’t come down, I’ll make you come down!” Roy snorted coldly. He suddenly stretched out his right hand and clenched it toward the vampires in the sky before jerking it down! The invisible power of Psychokinesis instantly engulfed all the vampires. In the sky, Giovanni and the vampires felt the air around them seem to freeze, and the resistance suddenly increased by hundreds or even thousands of times! At the same time, an immense force acted on their bodies, pulling them down!

“Not… not good!” Giovanni cried out as he desperately tried to flap his wings, but this action was futile. The force was so great that they could not struggle at all.

With a whistling sound, hundreds of vampires ‘crashed’ in the night sky of the desert. From below, Julia and Cassandra saw that these bats were falling in a straight line. They slammed into the ground one after another, as though they were jumping off a building…

If not for the fact that the ground of the desert was full of sand and had a cushioning effect, this group of vampires would have probably lost half their numbers just by falling like this.

Even so, many large bats crashed into the sand and became buried in it. Half of their bodies were buried, and the other half was exposed. Their legs were kicking wildly, making them look like ostriches…

Giovanni also ate a mouthful of sand. When he left the dune in human form and spat out the sand, he found that he and his vampire subordinates were already surrounded by the undead army.

Vampires usually would not care about skeleton soldiers holding rusted weapons. But when Giovanni saw the demon floating in the air with his wings spread, he did not dare to think this way.

It seemed to be a demon that had never appeared in Sheogh. Giovanni did not know what race this demon was, but be it the two pairs of demon wings of different colors behind the other party or the black armor emitting a strong cold aura, Giovanni realized that he was in trouble this time.

The opponent is a high-rank demon…

Before he could say anything, Roy laughed loudly in the air. “Good timing. I’ll use you big bats to test my new magic!”

With that, Roy waved his hand. A black bolt of lightning suddenly appeared in the sky and struck Cassandra’s undead army!

However, this black bolt of lightning did not cause any damage to the army. Instead, after the bolt of lightning descended, it turned into countless arcs of lightning that darted toward the skeleton soldiers. The next second, three small black electric balls appeared around the skeleton soldiers and began quickly rotating around them. Lightning Shield!

This was probably the first time that Roy had changed his magic from direct offensive magic to support enhancement army magic. This was the magic combat style of the heroes of Ashan, and Roy was now trying to learn how to use magic to support troops like the heroes.

And needless to say, his test subjects were Giovanni and his vampires…
