Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 50 Scouting the Enemy
For some reasons, Eli's army was delayed for half an hour.

Half an hour later, Eli, looking calm, led his army toward the city they had recaptured earlier.

Before, they had captured many cities and killed countless demons along the way. A large number of demon corpses were buried outside every recovered city. Now is the time when they can be used.

The demons were still on the defensive, so Eli's army traveled very safely along the way and soon arrived outside a city where the flag of the coalition of hundreds of races was flying.

After meeting with the small number of soldiers left in the city, Eli arranged for people to start digging the mass grave a little outside the city.

Because the burial time had not been too long and the weather was good, the demon corpses dug out by the soldiers were not seriously decayed, but the smell was a bit unbearable.

Although she had come into contact with corpses many times since she practiced necromancy, Evelyn frowned when she smelled the pungent stench of corpses. This was different from the fresh or processed corpses she had come into contact with before...

Fortunately, the magic to summon undead creatures does not require contact with corpses. Standing at the edge of the mass grave, Evelyn silently recited a spell in her heart, then raised her hand and pointed to the huge pit where many demon corpses were buried.

At the point where Evelyn pointed, the demon corpses that had been lying there quietly began to move. First, many dead demons opened their eyes, and faint soul fire emerged in their eyes. Then, these demon corpses with lit soul fire crawled out from the bottom of the pit. Under Evelyn's command, they climbed out of the deep pit one by one and formed a standard military formation in the open space.

After all the demon corpses in the mass grave were transformed into undead creatures, Evelyn's forehead was slightly sweaty. Although her magic power had not been exhausted, there was not much left.

This is a post-war burial site in a small city. There are approximately 65,000 demon corpses in the mass grave. There are still some quotas left to Evelyn's normal limit, and she can go to the next city to replenish her summoning quota.

So, Eli's army set out again, preparing to head to the next burial site, but this time, his army was followed by 65,000 more undead demons.

The journey remained calm after that. The demons who had mastered the secret method of mutation but were unable to control and command the mutated magic soldiers did not launch a counterattack against the coalition forces of hundreds of races. They still huddled in various cities and military camps. The only change was that they evacuated from many small cities and tried to gather their troops in one place to avoid being defeated one by one.

Not long after, Eli's army arrived at another recaptured town. They used the same operation as before. The soldiers dug a mass grave, and Evelyn used necromancy to transform the demon corpses in the pit into undead demons.

However, the transformation this time was much less than the last time. After summoning 20,000 undead demons, Evelyn waved at Eli and wiped the sweat from her forehead. Her magic power could no longer support her...

Adding the 65,000 undead demons controlled outside the previous city, Evelyn converted and controlled a total of 85,000 undead demons, 5,000 more than the estimated 80,000, which was a small surprise.

With the help of these 85,000 undead demons, Eli can continue to attack the city and kill demons. But before that, he plans to meet up with the other army that was previously divided. After the demons possessed the secret method of mutation, the number of high-level warriors under his command became the key. What's more, he was looking forward to gaining one or more necromancers from the other army.

The elves, such as Wendy, who were not afraid of being ambushed, served as messengers, and Eli's army stationed in the nearest small town, waiting for the other army to arrive and join them. During the waiting time, Eli was not idle. He asked his lieutenants, Londo and Evelyn, to stay in the camp, while he led the vanguard out of the city to find the gathering place of the demons and make preparations for the war.

When he just divided his troops, he only brought five seventh-level strongmen and 150,000 troops. Before experiencing the changes in the demon clan, he had already developed an army of 400,000. The number of high-level strongmen also increased from five to eighteen, including four eighth-level strongmen.

Eli's army never uses high-level strongmen as commanders. He always keeps the army as the army and the high-level strongmen as the vanguard.

Therefore, when the vanguard, which was composed entirely of high-level warriors, took action, they were faster than the cavalry battalion. During their forced march, they passed by many small towns that had been evacuated by the demons. They did not stop in such cities and continued to move deeper into the war zone.

At noon, Eli and his vanguard finally encountered a city guarded by demons. According to Eli's spiritual exploration, there were at least 500,000 demon soldiers and more than 20 high-level demons gathered in this city.

Compared to Eli's vanguard, the demon defenders in this city not only have a large number of demon soldiers, but are also slightly stronger than Eli in high-end combat power.

Because he had performed too strongly in the previous battle, the demons suspected that he was a saint. So if he could not ensure that all of them were killed, Eli would not personally kill the high-level powerful enemy demons for the time being. After all, he could not always find all the special demons hiding among the demon soldiers.

Of course, now with Evelyn and her undead demons, he was able to ensure that all the demon guards he encountered were carried away. However, this operation was just to scout the enemy situation while waiting, and he did not need to take action.

So, after marking the city on the map, Eli led the vanguard team to leave the place, bypassing the city far away and searching deeper into the war zone.

After a whole day, Eli's military map showed seven cities garrisoned by demon troops, as well as nearly a hundred empty cities and some empty small and medium-sized military camps.

"It's getting late. Let's set up camp here and rest for the night. Tomorrow we will start to split up into teams of three and continue the reconnaissance like we did today. We will try to mark all the nearby small battle zones before joining forces."

As the night deepened, Eli turned to the vanguard and said that in order to improve the efficiency of attacking the city and exterminating the demons, and to prevent the army from leaving the city empty-handed, they would have to ask high-level warriors to serve as scouts.

After all, the war with the demons at this point is no longer a matter of destroying one city at a time. We must first find out where the demons are gathering their troops so that we can strike them one by one.

That night, Eli didn't sleep very well. With Jessica guarding outside the tent, Eli rewarded Cecilia's black silk legs. Although he couldn't really have sex with her, there were other ways to play...
