Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 71 Besieged
Of course, now is not the time to be arrogant. The demons are not cotton and are not so easy to bully.

Leading an army of six million, Eli continued to march along the periphery of the war zone. All the cities they encountered on the way were easily captured. Unfortunately, because there might be pursuers from behind, there was no time to count the number of demon troops annihilated after each battle.

But it didn't matter. What Eli valued was the actual results of killing demons, not a string of cold data. No matter how good the battle report was, it was not as real as killing a few more demons.

This kind of slaughter lasted for a full half month. The army led by Eli swept through the outer cities of this large war zone almost effortlessly. During this period, all the pursuit and blockades by the demons were easily resolved by Eli. He also absorbed several reinforcement teams he met along the way.

After half a month of fighting, the demons seemed to be completely enraged by Eli's loach army. The war zone headquarters continued to send reinforcements to the periphery of the war zone. More and more demons were pursued by Eli, and the demon army surrounding them in front was becoming more and more dense.

Even with Eli's spirit guiding them, it would be difficult for them to fight guerrilla warfare with the demons. After all, Eli now has an army of eight million under his command, and it is not easy to mobilize such a large army. In addition, with the demons gathering outside the war zone, they do not have much room to maneuver.

On this day, Eli had just led his army to capture a city occupied by demons. After annihilating the demon defenders in the city, he was preparing to evacuate when his soul detected that demon encirclement and suppression troops were approaching them from all directions.

Moreover, no matter which direction they came from, the demons' pursuers were all heavyweight, not the kind of troops that could be defeated in one go.

After killing for so long, I was finally caught in the pocket...

This breakout will not be as easy as last time, and there will be a bloody battle.

As the saying goes, pick the softest persimmon to squeeze, Eli carefully selected a route where the demon army was the weakest, which was suitable for them to break through.

Leading an army of eight million, Eli marched southward, and soon encountered the demon army that was besieging them.

The leader of this demon army is a ninth-rank powerful demon. Although he is nothing in Eli's eyes, the two million demon soldiers under his command should not be underestimated.

With eight million against two million, the advantage is on my side no matter how you look at it. But the enemy demons don't need to defeat them here. They just need to delay their own eight million troops for a while.

The demon army coming from all directions is more than tens of millions. Once they are delayed, they will be facing the demon mountains and seas.

"We must win this battle quickly! We don't need to kill as many demons as possible, as long as we can tear a huge hole in their army formation, we will win!"

Before leading his troops forward, Eli gave simple orders to his subordinates and reinforcements. As for himself, he was the vanguard officer responsible for tearing open the gap.

Eli led the charge into the demon group with an axe in hand. Knowing the strength of this human saint, the commander of the demon army hid behind the army in order to avoid being killed by Eli in battle and thus destroying their morale.

On Eli's way of charge, no demon was his match. In order to tear apart the enemy demon's army, Eli expanded the attack range as much as possible regardless of the cost. The demon soldiers along the way were in bad luck. Many demons turned into blood rain without even seeing the enemy's face.

The vanguard behind Eli followed suit, charging in a diffuse manner to kill the demon soldiers along the way, until they encountered a high-level strong enemy demon mixed in with the demon soldiers and were blocked. After the demons suffered a loss, they learned to be smart. The main general huddled behind the army to avoid being killed, and the high-level strong men no longer gathered in groups but hid among the ordinary soldiers. Although it was still difficult to stop Eli from killing everyone in the demon group, it did temporarily delay Eli's army.

"Jessica! Cecilia! Use all your strength to kill those who are blocking your way!"

In the frenzied killing, seeing that the army was blocked from breaking through, Eli shouted to the back. After hearing his voice, Jessica and Cecilia, who were fighting bravely to kill demons, were shocked and then rushed out, targeting the high-level demons.

After the two women broke through to the eighth level, they took action in many battles, but never used their full strength, so that the demons only noticed Eli's invincible posture, and ignored Jessica and Cecilia who seemed ordinary in his vanguard.

As rare super geniuses in human history, both Jessica and Cecilia possess the ability to fight across levels. Although they are only level eight now, if they fight with all their strength, even level nine demons will be no match for them.

Although they couldn't kill high-level demons like their master did, every demon of the same level they faced couldn't last more than three rounds. As for those seventh-level demons, one round was enough to take them down.

With the ninth-rank demon commander avoiding the battle, the coalition forces, which had three invincible strongmen on the battlefield, quickly broke through the defenses of the demon army. Stepping on the corpses and blood of many demons, Eli's army quickly rushed across the battlefield, advancing outward step by step.

Although the demon army that was besieging Eli's army fought hard, they still couldn't stop the enemy. Seeing that the tight defense line was being broken through step by step, the demon commander hiding behind the army could no longer sit still.

"Where's the priest? Use the secret method! Keep them at all costs!"

After being fiercely attacked by Eli and his eight million troops, the two million demon army suffered heavy casualties, but there were still at least 1.2 million demons who could still fight. If the secret mutation method was activated at this time, these 1.2 million living demon soldiers would be transformed into mutated demon soldiers who would be defeated by the coalition forces.

This demon leader was very cruel, as he was willing to sacrifice all his soldiers' lives to keep them.

But it must be said that when the hidden demon priest obeyed the order and launched the secret mutation method, the ordinary demon soldiers on the battlefield were transformed into pseudo-immortal mutated demon soldiers. The demon army formation that was about to be broken through by the coalition forces was immediately stabilized.

Unless the high-ranking warriors in the army make all-out efforts, the demon soldiers who were hacked to death or injured by the soldiers would be able to crawl up from the ground and fight again. Facing such enemy demons, the breakthrough momentum of the Eli army came to an abrupt halt.

Even though Eli now has an army of hundreds of thousands of undead demons, there are now mutated demon soldiers in front of him that are ten times their number. It will take some time to eliminate them all, and what they lack most now is time.

This time, I can't stop the pursuers from all directions...

Just when Eli was at a loss and could only scratch his head, in his spiritual vision, a familiar army emerged from all directions, quietly following the demons chasing from all directions...
