Chapter 300 Assassin Cookies

In the world of Ashan, it was relatively difficult for demons to obtain intelligence.

Due to the fact that most races were wary of demons, they could only use transformed succubi to sneak into other countries. But there were few succubi, and it was impossible to spread them all over the place. This caused the information of the demons to be delayed most of the time. Roy had already discovered this when he first came to this world.

If intelligence was lacking, it was naturally impossible for them to use any stratagems in war. So most of the time, demons relied on direct military force to eliminate enemies, which was in line with the style of demons.

But Roy knew that it would definitely not be viable long term. So even though he had entered the underground world to fight against the Shadowbrand clan, he still left enough Demon Eyes on the surface to help him obtain intelligence. Other than leaving some Demon Eyes in Ur-Hekal, he also spread many of them to other places. In particular, there were Demon Eyes monitoring in Dendera Fortress and Aglan Fortress. After the alliance army arrived, although they did not approach the fortress, so many troops naturally could not escape the detection of the Demon Eyes. So even though Roy was underground, he knew about their arrival.

The reactions of the various races were not out of Roy’s expectations. Instead, he was happy to see this happen. Once the alliance army appeared, it meant that war would immediately occur in Eeofol, and he could perfectly avoid it.

Of course, Roy estimated that it would not be easy for the alliance army to attack Eeofol. Although the alliance army was powerful, the demons were currently adopting a policy of laying low, which meant that all of Eeofol had an unimaginable number of demons. There were more than a million in Ur-Hekal alone. The alliance army would likely suffer.

However, it did not matter to Roy who won or lost. In any case the final outcome of this war would be what Roy wanted.

Xeron had already obtained the promise of Demon Lord Kha-Beleth, getting Kha-Beleth to support him unreservedly. But if the alliance army’s attack on Eeofol caused Isabel to be affected and unable to give birth to the Dark Messiah, then Xeron would have to bear the wrath of Kha-Beleth.

Of course, there was still the question of whether the alliance’s mighty army could attack Ur-Hekal. After all, it was remarkably difficult to do so. If attacking Ur-Hekal would result in too great of a loss, then the alliance heroes would likely judge the situation and hesitate before eventually giving up on attacking Ur-Hekal.

What Roy wanted to do now was to add fuel to the fire. He wanted to stop the alliance army’s hesitation and force them to attack Ur-Hekal at all costs!

At this moment, Roy had already led his troops into the underground world for two days.

Eeofol’s entrance to the underground world was at the foot of a volcano. Benia had gotten information about it through captured dark elf captives. But this entrance was very narrow, so Roy had to spend a lot of effort to widen it to let the army pass.

Speaking of which, Ashan was indeed a strange world. There were many similar underground cavities everywhere under the continent, giving people the feeling that the underground of this planet was like a hollow space. According to Giovanni, there were originally not many of these underground cavities. But because there were many underground creatures, especially creatures like troglodytes, they would continuously dig underground and use the new land to grow edible mushrooms. This was similar to humans reclaiming land for farming. After thousands of years, the scale of the underground world slowly became what it was today.

The underground world was dark, and almost all the underground creatures had lost the light-sensitivity of their eyes. But the demons and vampires led by Roy had dark vision, while the undead did not need light, so they could still move freely after entering the underground.

However, it had been two days since entering the underground world, and Roy and the others were still exploring and drawing a map.

It could not be helped. The so-called underground world was basically a series of tunnels and large caves. There was no urban planning at all, and the complexity of the paths could drive people crazy. Due to the narrow terrain, the two enormous fellows, Rafaro and Fat Tiger, could not pass through many places. So Roy wanted to let them stay on the surface, but Rafaro did not agree. He knew that there were many creatures living in the underground world, and these were all good sources of life force. Moreover, due to the appearance of the Shadowbrand clan, Rafaro knew that there might be many black dragons and shadow dragons among this dark elf clan. Even if he did not dare to possess his sister Malsara’s body, it was a decent choice if he could encounter a stronger black dragon and shadow dragon.

Rafaro was now frantically trying to restore his dragon body and complete the resurrection ritual. He had had enough of this spectral dragon’s undead body. Cassandra treated him as a power bank every day, continually absorbing death power from him, but he did not dare to lose his temper at Cassandra because of Roy...

Since Rafaro wanted to follow, Roy did not mind adding Fat Tiger. Fat Tiger was addicted to eating dragons now, and Roy felt that he might want to try the taste of black dragon meat or shadow dragon meat.

With these two big fellows, Roy had to spend more time to open up the path. Giovanni brought his vampires and spread out as the scouts. They would return every once in a while and tell Roy the path they had explored, allowing Roy to draw the map and decide the direction of travel.

As they gradually went deeper, the vampires discovered and captured a large number of underground creatures. Among them, the most were troglodytes. These alien-like, green-skinned small troglodytes had a smooth round head and no eyes on their faces. They looked a little frightening, but in fact, these troglodytes were probably the most cowardly and timid race in Ashan.

Even without seeing Roy, this demon, vampires could easily make them tremble in fear.

Since they did not need prisoners, vampires often chose to kill these troglodytes when they encountered them, and their thirst for blood was also satisfied with them.

Among Roy’s army, he had distributed several Soul Attracting Flags. These flags with the Osiris Mark continuously collected the souls of the underground world for him. Just the troglodytes encountered along the way had brought him about thirty thousand souls. But these souls were relatively weak and a distance away from standard souls, so Roy’s actual soul harvest was only about twenty-two thousand.

But these were just the souls from the troglodytes. There were many other creatures.

During the exploration, Roy encountered some harpies and beholders. These creatures could be said to be standard Dungeon residents, and they had lived in the underground world for generations. But in the underground world of Eeofol, they were basically wild. This place was not in the sphere of influence of the underground kingdom of Nighon, so no one organized them to fight Roy’s army.

When facing the invasion of Roy’s army, these creatures could only be on the weakest side. If they did not escape when they were first discovered, they would be slaughtered. Another two days passed, and Roy became a little irritated. The alliance army on the surface had already started fighting with the demons, but he still did not find any traces of the dark elves...

“We’re moving in the direction to the city where Grawl is stationed. The dark elves often move around there, and there are definitely a lot of them, but why haven’t we found any traces yet?” Roy asked. “Did they really suffer heavy losses because of the virus infection?” “I think they’re just avoiding fighting!” Julia shook her head. “Dark elves have such character. They rarely fight enemies head-on.”

“It seems like it’s best to find their camp!” Roy said. “It’s impossible for them to avoid fighting after we’ve discovered their lair, right?”

“Indeed. They can still endure it for now, but if we really find their lair, then Giovannis and the scouts will definitely be attacked!” Benia said. “This is the signal!”

Roy was about to nod in agreement when he discovered something unusual.

Roy, Julia, and the others were currently walking in an enormous cave, surrounded by his army. But in the stalactites on the ceiling the cave, Roy sensed several different radiation sources!

These radiation sources were humanoid and sticking closely to the stalactites. But some of the vampires hovering above the army did not notice the existence of these people at all.

In other words, dark vision could not see these people. But in Roy’s Radiation Perception, these people had nowhere to hide...

Disguise or invisibility? Roy immediately thought. Are they assassins of the dark elves?

Roy continued walking calmly, but he found that the hidden assassins did not attack them when the demon army passed under these stalactites.

So it’s the decapitation tactic? Roy could not help but smile sinisterly. They’re coming for me. Perhaps Julia and Benia are also among the targets!

Roy pretended everything was fine and continued moving forward. When he was about to pass under the stalactites, he shouted, “Everyone, move faster!”

Roy’s appearance was very striking. The Cold Winter Armor did not look ordinary at all. And with this order, the assassins hiding above confirmed Roy’s identity as the leader, so the hidden dark elven assassins finally took action!

Several crossbow bolts soaked in strong poison had been painted black, and the bolt heads had undergone special treatment, so they would not emit any whistling sounds when cutting through the air. The dark elves shot them out silently, and they headed straight for Roy!

“Success!” The moment the bolts shot out, this thought flashed in the minds of the dark elven assassins because they saw that the demon below did not seem to notice at all.

However, just as the bolts were about to hit Roy, a large black ice shield suddenly appeared in the air. The poisoned bolts shot by the assassins hit the ice shield and made clanking sounds, all of which were blocked.

“Not good, retreat!” The assassins were shocked and quickly wanted to retreat. But at this moment, a strange force grabbed their bodies tightly, making them unable to move.

Roy stretched out his right hand toward the top of the cave, capturing all five dark elven assassins with his Psychokinesis. Only then did Julia and the others realize that assassins had attacked.

Under Roy’s Psychokinesis, the dark elven assassins found that they could not break free from this force at all. Instead, they were pulled by this force out of thin air and slowly gathered together. They looked at each other and confirmed with their eyes before wanting to swallow the poison sacks in their mouths to commit suicide.

This was the awareness of assassins...

However, before they could swallow, a purple light shot out from below enveloped everyone.

“Turn into cookies!”

Following these words, not only did all the dark elves immediately notice that their bodies were undergoing tremendous changes, but they also noticed their vision suddenly changing. Then they saw their companions shrink in an instant and turn into golden cookies before falling from the air...

Their bodies became cookies, but their minds were still there. After they fell to the ground, they saw a demon in front of them. From their current vision, this demon’s body was shockingly massive!

They realized that they had become a kind of food and might be eaten by this demon directly. Such terrifying magic almost caused the dark elves to collapse, but they could not even commit suicide now and could only wait in fear for the fate to come...
