Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 97 Avoiding the Battle

By the time Eli led his troops back, the battle on the main battlefield was almost over.

Countless demon soldiers were divided and surrounded, and their only fate was to die in battle or be eliminated after mutating.

There is no need for Eli's army to join the battle. The demons in this war zone are already finished.

In just two days, the demon clan in a large war zone was destroyed. The results of this battle were even more brilliant than the previous decisive battle.

Of course, this was due to the active cooperation of the demons. If they did not concentrate their forces and let the coalition forces attack each city one by one, apart from being able to deal with the enemy demon headquarters in a short period of time, it would take at least ten days to recapture the remaining cities.

This kind of head-on decisive battle was originally the favorite way of warfare of the demons. When they conquered the continent, every city of the hundreds of races cost them a lot of time and manpower.

Compared to siege warfare, they are better at field battles. When the troops of both sides are deployed, the individual quality of the demons is stronger than that of the coalition forces of hundreds of races, and their high-end combat power is also far ahead. This kind of battle is much more exciting than a siege.

But now, not only were the powerful demons forced to fight a city defense battle, but even their best field encounter battles were crushed by the coalition forces of hundreds of races.

The once invincible demon army seemed like a dream bubble, as if it did not exist at all. There were only the embarrassed defeated soldiers fleeing in panic under the enemy's butcher knife.

Not long after, the battle on the main battlefield ended. Except for the millions of mutated demon soldiers who were temporarily buried, the remaining demons on the battlefield had been all killed.

Post-war statistics is a huge project, but Eli no longer cares about it. His current thought is how to further expand the results of the war.

The demon saints and the reinforcement army who had come here to support the enemy demons came from another large war zone adjacent to them, which was not far away from them.

After losing four saints and tens of millions of troops, that war zone must be extremely empty now. Now is a good opportunity to kill him while he is weak.

Of course, Eli was not the only one who could think of such a simple thing. When Eli communicated this idea with other saints, he learned that the army that had been transformed from the reserve force to the advance force was ready to set off. As for those troops that had just finished the battle, they would have to rest for a night before catching up.

Five of the seven saints will set out with the advance team. There were only six saints in the headquarters of the enemy demon war zone before, and now four of them have died in a foreign area. How can the remaining two demon saints be their opponents?

What's more, their strongest demon king Lyman Copperfield is dead, and Saint Ryan is simply invincible over there.

As for Eli, he was not among the five saints who set out first. After all, his army had been running back and forth on the battlefield and had gone through two battles. Except for Eli himself, even Jessica and Cecilia were exhausted, and the troops urgently needed to rest.

Not long after, Eli and the saints of the druid clan watched the advance army leave. After the army left, the druid saints went back to use their innate natural magic to heal the injured soldiers, while Eli went straight back to his camp.

At this moment, only Jessica and Cecilia were waiting for him in his tent. Evelyn did not come over. Wendy and Eleanor were guarding the sleeping advanced dragon beast Oliver in a huge tree hole not far away.

Because this war ended too quickly, it didn't even have time to wait for the dragon beast to complete its advancement. If the battle in the next theater of war was similar, it might not even be able to catch up with the next war.

When Eli returned to the tent, Jessica and Cecilia had just finished taking a bath. After a day of fighting, they were inevitably stained with blood, so it was not convenient for them to wait for their master to come back and take a bath together. "Rest early tonight, we have to go to war tomorrow."

After saying hello to Jessica and Cecilia who had just washed themselves, Eli took off his armor and fell headfirst onto the camp bed. With his strength, although he had gone through a fierce battle, there was not a drop of blood on his body, and he didn't even sweat.

Since the master is not in the mood and they are both really tired, they will not cuddle up to each other tonight. They will just sleep quietly, one on each side holding the master.

Nothing happened overnight...

The next morning, the main force set out immediately after a simple breakfast.

Eli led tens of millions of troops to the battlefield. Along the way, he passed by many cities that were deserted by demons. He did not send troops to garrison there. His main goal was to eliminate the demons. These cities could be occupied after the war.

After a day's march, the army had just reached the border of the war zone. If they continued to move forward, they would enter a new battlefield.

It was not until then that the liaison officer sent by the advance army found Eli and reported the situation of the advance army to him.

Like them, the advance army did not encounter any battles along the way. Even after entering the new war zone and marching for a long time, the army only encountered a few empty cities and did not see even a shadow of an evil spirit.

This shouldn't be the case. The deserters of the demon reinforcements who were defeated by Eli's army should have fled back to their own war zone. The enemy demons should be on high alert at this time, so how come they have disappeared without a trace?
It couldn't be that the demons in these cities had all fled at the sight of the enemy? When did the always proud demons become so cowardly?

But the fact is, when Eli led his troops into the new war zone the next day, he only saw empty cities along the way and did not even see a single diehard demon.

The demons did not flee at the sight of the enemy, they retreated in an orderly manner. Otherwise, there would definitely be some demons who were not afraid of death and would defend the city to the death. Eli had seen many such diehard demons before.

Only a military order could allow the demons to leave so cleanly. Could it be that they had also concentrated their forces like they did in the previous war zone and were ready to fight them to the death?

No, the demons may be crazy and arrogant, but they are not fools. In this war zone, the demons' military strength is acceptable, but the holy forces are too scarce. They have no ability to fight them head-on. The demon leaders will not make such a stupid decision.

So they really withdrew? They just handed over the entire war zone?

If this was the result, the rear of the hundreds of tribes would certainly be happy to accept it, but for Eli, it was extremely bad news.

Once the demons avoided fighting, where would he go to destroy them in large numbers? No matter how strong he was, he couldn't rush into the demon group and wipe out all of them alone...

Only a war at the legion level or the theater level is the fastest way to eliminate the demon race's vitality. We must never let the demon race hang up a free-from-war sign. We must fight them, and fight them hard!
What disappointed Eli extremely was that when their advance army sent people to contact them again, the news they conveyed was that they still had not encountered the demons, as if the entire war zone had been deserted by the demons.
