Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 35: Immortality versus Immortality
Eli wasn’t bragging.

When he returned to the city next time, there were not enough mutated demon soldiers left for him to kill.

This time, Eli cleared out all the mutated demon soldiers in the city in one breath, leaving only blood flowing like a river on the ground.

One man with an axe destroyed 100,000 demon soldiers. Even someone as strong as Eli had to rest twice during the intermission, but overall the effort and time spent were not that much. After all, when facing low-level monsters like demon soldiers, he could kill a lot of them with one axe.

But even so, Eli still thought he was too slow in killing demons.

If this had happened in the magic era a thousand years ago, a magician of the same level as him would have only needed one forbidden spell to destroy a hundred thousand demon soldiers. Unfortunately, now is the Dharma Ending Age, and the strength and number of magicians are far less than before. The glory of the magic era is long gone.

After finally defeating this wave of monsters, Eli let out a sigh of relief, then without further delay, turned around and ran in the direction of the army's retreat.

He stayed behind for too long. If he delayed any longer, his army's morale might be unstable. Jessica and Cecilia didn't need to worry. They knew about one-fifth of his strength, but it was enough for them to know that with his strength, he could break through even if surrounded by a million demon soldiers, let alone a hundred thousand.

Eli ran at full speed and soon saw the temporary military camp in the distance. Outside the camp, Wendy was looking into the distance, as if waiting for someone to come back.

As they approached the military camp, Eli slowed down and rushed into the camp at a speed slightly faster than that of an average eighth-level warrior. Because he did not hide his figure, Wendy, who was standing outside the camp and looking into the distance, quickly spotted him.

"He's back! City Lord Eli is back!"

Wendy's shouts could be heard from far away; the voice of this elf girl was truly penetrating.

By the time Eli arrived at the military camp, all the important figures in the camp were already present, including Wendy and several other elves.

"I've said it before that those demons can't possibly hurt the master. Cecilia's master is the strongest!"

Cecilia was standing on the far left of the team at this time, and spoke with pride, as if the one who had returned was not just the commander of the army, but a superhero of hundreds of races.

"Lord Eli, I finally managed to break out and pass on the message, but I didn't expect to hear that you also encountered the mutated demons as soon as I got here."

After Cecilia finished speaking, Wendy, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, immediately came out and spoke to Eli who had returned. From what she said, it seemed that the changes in the demon clan did not only happen in the previous city.

Sure enough, after Eli frowned, Wendy continued, "Our army had been going smoothly before. We captured several cities and killed many demons. But this morning, when we arrived at Langzo City, we encountered a demon mutation after breaking the city. They seemed to have abilities similar to ours. Our army paid a great price to get rid of the pursuit of the mutated demons. The casualties were great. The temporary commander of our army sent our elves to deliver the message to you, Lord Eli. They were afraid that there would be an ambush of demons on the road. Only the elves who would not die could guarantee the delivery of the message."

Perhaps after a period of adjustment, Wendy's words were busy but not chaotic, which directly showed that they had encountered the same situation as Eli. In Eli's previous life, from the dramatic changes in the elves to the disappearance of their immortal bodies, the demons never found a way to deal with it. They had been relying on their demon lives to make up for it, and suffered huge losses before they survived the six-month crazy period of the elves.

Something must be wrong in this life. The demons have actually found a way to deal with the elves' period of madness. They seem to want to fight immortality with immortality. Even if the mutated demons are not truly immortal, with their strength far superior to that of the elves, their incomplete immortality can barely fight against the absolute immortality bestowed upon the elves by the Goddess of Life.

Although the mutated demons will die completely if they are split into blood foam, and the elves can take time to revive by dripping blood even if they are broken into blood foam, but with the fighting style of the elves, except for high-level strong ones, they have little ability to completely kill the mutated demons.

Originally, the elves could kill countless demon soldiers and high-level demons by fighting for their lives, but the situation will change significantly after today. The elves' lethality against the demons has been greatly reduced. In front of the pseudo-immortal demons, the elves below the high level can no longer influence the battle situation.

However, judging from today's battle situation, the price of the demon clan's pseudo-immortality ability is still very high. All the good demon soldiers have turned into zombies who have lost the ability to think, which is somewhat similar to the low-level zombies that Eli knew in his previous life.

In this situation, it would be great if there was a Saint-level magician in his team. He could cast a forbidden fire spell and burn the mutated demons into ashes, which would naturally make them deadlier than ever.

But unfortunately, let alone Eli's team, even in the large battlefields and central battlefields, the number of Saint-level magicians can be counted. Each one of them is a treasure in their team, and there are dozens of Saint-level warriors protecting them wherever they go. How could such scarce strong people appear in a small battlefield?

The magician class declined due to the invasion of demons, but magicians of the Saint rank and above became national treasures.

Eli indeed did not have the ability to get a holy-level magician, but if he only relied on himself to kill with his axe, the next battle would be difficult to fight. The army of more than one million men under his command would also lose its meaning of existence.

Facing the pseudo-immortal mutated demons, only high-level warriors have the ability to kill them. However, even after joining forces, the high-level warriors under Eli are only a hundred at most. It would be difficult to rely on such a small number of people to crush the small towns with at least tens of thousands of demon soldiers.

Moreover, the high-ranking members of the demon clan are obviously not as brainless as the mutated demon soldiers. Since they have mastered the method of mutation, there is no guarantee that they will not have other strategies to cooperate with. As long as they give up some cities and gather the scattered demon soldiers and generals, facing the hundreds of thousands or even millions of mutated demon soldiers, Eli would probably have to have three heads and six arms to deal with them.

But unfortunately, although Eli is strong, he only has a head and two arms, and he really can't learn to be like Nezha.

"Let's rest here first. Later, the vanguard team will follow me to find another city. If the nearby demons have undergone any changes, we can discuss future strategies..."

Eli said as he walked into the barracks, followed by Jessica and Cecilia.

After Eli left, the high-level warriors in the crowd looked at each other. There was really no other way to deal with it, so they could only let them work harder for the time being.
