Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 13: The Turning Point of the Millennium War

"boom"

The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard.

The knocked-away Moro lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up. With its increased strength after the transformation, it used up all its power to blast out the Demon Shock in All Directions, but it was easily taken up by the woman in front of it. It would never understand why the human race would send such a powerful warrior to a remote town like the Demon Hunting City.

Fortunately, the universal combat power levels of all races do not have the settings of initial, middle, late, peak, and great perfection, otherwise Mo Luo would definitely spit blood while shouting, "A powerful eighth-level great perfection master actually simulated the aura of the seventh level to bully me, a little demon at the initial eighth level!"

After all, it was a time when two armies were fighting. Cecilia originally wanted to fight with Moruo for a few more rounds, but when she saw that her master was about to kill through the demon army, Jessica also turned around and killed the chaotic demon army. Knowing that she could not play anymore, Cecilia gathered all her fighting spirit and shot through the head of Moruo who was struggling on the ground.

After getting rid of the supreme commander of the demon army, Cecilia shook off the blood on the knight's gun, and then followed Jessica who had rushed into the enemy camp before her. The two women did not need to join forces, and each of them could kill countless demons along the way.

The main general was killed in the battle, and not even a trace of his two deputy generals was left. Their own army formation was also completely destroyed. One can imagine the morale of the demon army at this time.

The collapse happened in an instant. Whether it was the demons in front who were being ruthlessly crushed or the demons in the back who saw the sudden change, they all had only one thought at this moment: run! The farther the better!

When we are really faced with a hopeless situation, let's go to the glory of the demon clan... No, this is a tactical retreat, in order to avoid being shameful captives and to preserve the strength of our clan!
Before Eli could kill the entire demon army, the demons in the rear had already begun to retreat. It was all because Moluo was too big after his transformation. Even the demons in the rear, who were far away, could see him fall.

Because their numbers were not twice that of the enemy and they did not have a large number of cavalry, even though the battle was taking place in an open area, Eli and his troops were unable to prevent the demon clan's rear troops from fleeing.

However, this battle not only killed three enemy generals, but also forced the arrogant demon army to collapse and flee. It can be said that the victory of this battle was not inferior to the first battle in which the demon army was completely annihilated.

Under the leadership of Eli, the army of Demon Hunting City chased the fleeing demon army until the soldiers' physical strength could no longer keep up.

With Eli leading the charge, there was no need to pursue a desperate enemy. It was a pity that the human race was generally inferior to the demons in terms of physical fitness, and they could not compete with them in a competition of endurance.

As for the commander-in-chief Eli, who is still full of energy at the moment, he naturally would not go alone to hunt down the defeated demon soldiers. Firstly, his status as a commander-in-chief is not suitable for him to do so, and secondly, he has to leave some survivors, otherwise who will attract new demons to him.

It's not as satisfying to run around killing monsters by yourself as to attract a group of monsters and then clear them out in one wave.

"Clean up the battlefield, and then follow me back to the city!"

Eli's voice echoed across the empty battlefield, and Jessica and Cecilia returned to his side immediately.

Whether it was burying the bodies of the demons or bringing back their own wounded and fallen soldiers, these tasks were not the turn of the two women who fought against the enemy commander on the battlefield. Their first duty was always to follow their master and protect... well, they didn't need to protect, so they just had to follow their master closely. Not long after, the few defenders on the top of the Demon Hunting City saw their large army returning from afar. After confirming their identities and understanding the battle situation, the defenders burst into cheers. Inadvertently, it was another great victory!
After returning to the city, Eli arranged for Rondo to go and reward the merits, while he took Jessica and Cecilia back to the City Lord's Mansion and did not come out for a long time.

It was not until the evening that Eli and his three companions showed up at the celebration banquet. Even though Eli didn't like drinking, he couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the soldiers and drank a few more glasses.

After a simple and warm celebration banquet, Eli and the other two bid farewell to the soldiers and returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Although he drank a lot of wine, Eli was still very sober at this time. In view of Cecilia's continuous night attacks, Eli specially arranged for her to sleep with him today.

As long as I come to you on my own initiative, you won’t be able to launch a sneak attack!
After bidding farewell to the expressionless Jessica, Cecilia closed the door with joy. However, when she was happily preparing to enjoy her mature master, she saw him standing by the window, looking at the starry sky outside with a mysterious look on his face.

"Cecilia, do you know that every star in the sky represents a god? Whenever a star falls, it means that a god has fallen. Over the past thousand years, the gods have lost dozens of stars in the war with the devil..."

Eli's voice sounded slowly, his tone full of vicissitudes, as if he was feeling sad and regretful for the fallen stars.

"Isn't this what we learned in the cultural history class? Although dozens of gods died in the war of gods, the demon gods of the demon clan also suffered heavy losses, with dozens of them dead. In the war of gods, we are not at a disadvantage. On the contrary, the countries on the continent... There used to be thousands of countries, but now only a few hundred countries remain, and half of the continent has been lost..."

At this point, Cecilia's good mood disappeared, and hatred for the demons welled up in her heart. Her homeland was destroyed in the invasion of the demons, and her parents also died in the war to destroy their country. Only she, who was only a few years old at the time, was sent to the safe Dawn Empire by her parents' men at the risk of their lives, and she was able to survive and was later found by her master and adopted by his family.

"The battle between gods is evenly matched, and the disadvantages of ordinary people are obvious? But... after tonight, history will take a turn. Can I really turn it back..."

Hearing Cecilia's answer, Eli murmured in a voice that only he could hear.

The moment his low voice fell, a star in the sky that was far brighter than many other stars began to fall. Under the gaze of hundreds of tribes tonight, it slowly fell into the depths of a forest, illuminating the darkness there.

If nothing unexpected happens, people who get up early the next day will receive a message from the Elf Empire: the great goddess of life has returned to the embrace of nature.

The goddess of life, the patron saint of the elves, one of the ten main gods of the Pantheon, and a great existence second only to the three god kings. Her death tonight marks the breaking of the balance of the war between gods and demons. The world of gods is about to face even greater pressure from the war of gods. Except for Eli Bruno in his previous life who didn't care about it at the time, no group can sleep peacefully tonight.

Of course, the fall of the main god not only increased the pressure of the war between gods, but also reduced a lot of the war pressure among hundreds of races.

A remnant of the Goddess of Life's soul will merge into the Elf Empire's Tree of Life. The Elf Empire, which has received the final gift from the Goddess of Life, will soar into the sky, surpassing the other four empires and becoming a powerful existence second only to the Dawn Empire.
