Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 62 Going deep alone
"boom……"

Dust was flying outside Yelan City. As the body of the Demon King West fell to the ground with a loud bang, the battle in Yelan City came to an end ahead of schedule.

Even Lord West, who was also a saint, was no match for the human saint. The fifty or so high-level demons in the city sadly found themselves trapped. How could they face the 170 high-level demons from the coalition of hundreds of races led by the saint?

Run away, before they surround us, as many as you can escape...

Even the demons who considered themselves extremely brave were not willing to die bravely when they knew they would die. Among the fifty or so high-level demons, less than ten chose to launch a death charge against the enemy, and the rest all turned around and fled without any hesitation.

Just a few high-level powerful demons were killed by the axe before Eli could even last three seconds. After breaking open the city gate, Eli could rush around even on foot. The battle axe in his hand swung out a whirlwind of death, chasing the fleeing high-level powerful demons all the way. Anyone who came into contact with him would die. No demon could be his match.

The vanguard team that charged with him entered the city easily. Those who were agile also participated in the hunt for high-level demons. As for those who were not good at speed, they rushed into the demon group and launched a unilateral massacre on those demon soldiers who did not choose to flee.

Following the vanguard, millions of troops swarmed in and engaged in a fierce battle with the demon soldiers in the city. However, one side was in high morale while the other had no morale at all. The combat power displayed by both sides was completely unequal. In addition, a large number of demon soldiers also chose to escape. Only a few demon soldiers were still resisting, and they were being crushed by a large wave of high-level strong men from the coalition forces. They could not win. They really could not win.

"Eleanor, I leave this demon to you!"

Eli was having fun killing demons, and in the midst of his busy schedule he even kicked away a slightly injured eighth-level demon to give training to the little Eleanor. She was already at the seventh level now, so she had to level up as well in order to play with him.

The crushing and pursuit lasted for a long time. When the brave Eleanor hammered the eighth-level demon to death, the battle in Yelan City was nearing its end. Except for the commander Eli who had pursued out of the city and had not returned yet, the rest of the pursuers had returned victorious.

It was not until Eli returned to the city shortly afterwards that the rough results of the battle in Yelan City were reported.

In this battle, 350,000 demons were annihilated in the city, and more than 200,000 demons were pursued and killed outside the city. A total of 43 high-level demons were killed, plus the number added after Eli returned to the city. Only a few lucky demons escaped.

The most important thing is that in this battle, a demon king of the demon clan was killed, and that was a holy demon clan. Although there were many demon kings or demon saints killed by the coalition forces of hundreds of clans in the thousand-year war, this was the first time that a demon king was killed in a war in a small war zone.

From today on, the name of Eli Bruno will be known in all the small war zones nearby. With his strength, he is fully capable of sweeping away all enemy demons here. He will kill wherever he goes, and the enemy demons will be frightened and flee at the sight of him.

These are not flattery to Eli. In fact, after the battle of Yelan City, Eli took advantage of the great victory to attack again and captured three cities in succession. However, most of the demon soldiers and generals in the city fled before he led his troops to arrive, leaving Eli and his men with insufficient killings.

There was no other way. The death of Demon King West had brought too much shock and blow to the nearby demons. How could they resist an enemy that even the Saints could not stop? Their own high-ranking warriors would only be slaughtered, and their own army would be crushed by the enemy's high-ranking warriors. How could they fight this war?
Even if a mutation occurs, there are still nearly 100,000 undead demon legions following their army. Their mutated demon soldiers can be taken away in just one or two trips. No matter how they respond, they will lose. The most important thing is to escape and stay alive.

In the following battles, Eli led his army to kill countless demons, but he was not satisfied every time. He captured cities one after another, but he could not catch the main force of the demons. Eli led his army to go deeper into the battlefield, killing wherever he went, almost killing all the nearby areas. Unfortunately, after such a fight, the previously marked map was no longer useful, and he could only rely on Eli's soul exploration to find the target.

But even though Eli's "field of vision" is wide, the escaped demons are contagious. The news spreads from one city to another, and most of the cities will be gone in one go. Only the most stubborn and unbelieving demons will become their targets of killing.

For several days, except for the night breaks, Eli's army was killing demons along the way, and the results achieved were quite a lot, but each battle could not be compared with the battle in Yelan City, and the gap was huge.

"We can't continue to chase the fleeing demons like this. We still have to find a gathering point for the demons to kill them."

In just a few days, less than three million demons were killed, and Eli was obviously not satisfied with this progress.

But the surrounding small and medium-sized cities always fled before they arrived. Eli led his troops to take shortcuts countless times to chase and intercept them, but he only blocked them one or two times. This was a fast attack for a city siege, but the demons in the city ran away.

Although territory is important, it is not as important as killing demons and sealing demons to be killed.

"At this point, we can only start with the large cities, as that's where there are still large numbers of demons."

After pondering for a while, Eli decided to change his target and no longer attack small and medium-sized cities, but instead launch an attack on large cities.

Although large cities often have a garrison of more than one million troops, many high-level warriors and ninth-level warriors, for the Eli army at this time, large cities can be considered a tough nut to crack, but they are not enough to break their teeth.

There are no large cities in the small war zone. Eli needs to lead his troops into a large or medium-sized war zone to find the target, which requires passing through several nearby small war zones.

Given the strength of the Eli army, it would have been a very simple matter to fight their way into large and medium-sized war zones.

But doing so would violate a major military taboo, that is, a purely solitary invasion of deep territory. Although they are currently a solitary invasion of deep territory, given the strength of the cities with defeated soldiers in the surrounding areas, no demon can gather a large army to fight against them.

But if they have to cross several small war zones, and if the cities they pass by along the way gather together after their raid, and then deploy heavy troops in front, they can form a siege of tens of millions of people. If encountering this situation, Eli himself can ensure a breakout, but his army and vanguard will probably suffer.

We cannot lead the army directly to attack large cities. Going deep into the city alone will lead to a dead end. The only correct solution now is to contact the rear of the hundreds of ethnic groups, unite with the various armies, form a large-scale advancement on the map, and occupy the city in a diffuse manner.
