Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 52 The Copperfield Family
After having breakfast in a strange atmosphere, Eli and his two companions started their exploration again.

Today is the last day to scout the enemy. Before dark, all reconnaissance teams will return to their previous locations to assemble, and then all members of the vanguard team will rush to the military camp. This is the time agreed in advance, and it is also probably the time when another large army will arrive to join them.

If nothing goes wrong, this reconnaissance team will be able to point out the way for the army's journey for the next half month, saving a lot of time.

Eli's three-man team headed south and had already crossed the war zone and explored a long way.

Fortunately, there are only some small war zones nearby, and the large war zones are generally closer to the central battlefield, so they cannot go there for the time being.

Eli and the other two avoided empty cities and empty camps along the way and added a few more marks on the map. The demons gave up all the small cities and concentrated all the troops within a certain range in one place, forming an army of at least hundreds of thousands. With such a garrison lineup, as long as the mutation is activated, it can withstand even the attack of the elves.

However, that was because they had not yet encountered the rogue tactics that Eli had prepared for them, otherwise, these defenders and about twenty high-level strong men alone would not be able to defend these cities.

After walking for a long time, Eli finally added a mark to the map and prepared to turn back with Jessica and Cecilia. However, when they were halfway there, Eli, who was always on guard, suddenly stopped.

According to his spiritual perception, a strange group of demons were heading towards a city with a garrison of 500,000.

This demon team has only thirty-one demons in total, but there are thirty high-level warriors among them, and ten of them are eighth-level warriors.

This lineup is only one level nine warrior short of a large city with a million garrisons. How could such a powerful team appear in the wilderness of a small war zone? And what kind of demon is the level six demon mixed in with the thirty high-level demons?

No! These doubts are not a problem for me. The problem is that since I have encountered them, I should kill them without leaving a single piece of armor.

So, the three Eli crew members temporarily changed their route and headed straight for the demon team.

The demon team was slowed down by a sixth-level demon, so their speed was slower than that of Eli and his two companions. So before they could reach their destination, Eli blocked their way with a battle axe in his hand.

"Human race?"

The demon team's perception ability was obviously very average. It was not until Eli blocked their way with an axe that they noticed that they had encountered an enemy. The strongest demon in the team then expressed his doubts.

However, compared to Eli who was leading the way alone, some demons in the demon team were more concerned about Jessica and Cecilia behind him.

"Haha, originally I was complaining that the old man wasted my time by sending me to the battlefield to get credit, but I didn't expect to run into such human beauties before I even got there. It's worth my hard work to come here! Come on, demons! Capture those two human beauties, I want to go into the city and enjoy them."

A rampant voice came from the demon team. It was the only demon who was not a high-level strongman. But from his tone, it seemed that he was the boss of this team and could order demons stronger than him around at will.

Under the command of this ugly demon, ten demons walked out of their team and came in front of Eli. Just as they were about to take action to clear out the human who was in the way, the huge battle axe in the human's hand suddenly moved.

"laugh"

With just a strange sound, five of the ten demons in front of Eli were split apart, physically, and in more than two halves... The remaining five demons hadn't reacted yet, and just as they raised their weapons, Eli pulled the battle axe back and sent them to meet their companions on the spot.

With the back and forth of the battle axe, ten high-level powerful demons were killed. Although the dead were all seventh-level demons, it was enough to terrify the eighth-level demons in the team.

With their strength, it is not difficult to defeat or even kill a seventh-level opponent, but it is impossible to kill ten seventh-level opponents in one go even if their strength is doubled.

Is this human a ninth-rank expert? Or... a more terrifying existence?

The sixth-order demon who had been very rampant before was so shocked that he was speechless after seeing the deaths of his ten subordinates. Although there were many demons in his family who could do this, they were all important figures in his powerful family and they were not people you could just meet on the street.

"Powerful human, we are from the Copperfield family of the demon world. If you retreat now, we can pretend that nothing happened. If you accidentally hurt my viscount, the strong ones in my family will make you pay the price!"

Unsure of Eli's strength for a moment, an eighth-level warrior in the demon team stood up and shouted at him, trying to scare the other party away by using the prestigious Copperfield family.

The Copperfield family of the demon world? Although Eli in his previous life could not come into contact with beings of this level, he had heard of this family.

The rumored Copperfield family is considered a powerful force even in the demon world where demons are rampant. Their family has produced no less than three great demon kings (demigods of the demon race), no less than twenty demon kings (holy rank), and at least a hundred ninth-rank warriors, if not everywhere.

The demon team in front of them actually came from this kind of demon force, so their configuration was not considered strong, but rather seemed a bit low.

When a member of the Copperfield family travels, he doesn't even have a ninth-rank bodyguard with him. It must be said that this ugly viscount must not be valued in the family.

Eli's guess was indeed correct. Even in the powerful Copperfield family, not everyone can become successful. There are always some demons who are of noble birth but have mediocre talents and are not hardworking enough. Over time, they become useless. George Copperfield in front of him is such a case.

However, whether they are important or not, useless or not, actually has nothing to do with Eli. Eli only cares about whether they are demons. If they are, he can just kill them.

In Eli's eyes, demons are equal in status, and the status of the demons can only determine whether their funeral is grand or not. For Eli, the demon undertaker, dead demons are good demons.

"The Copperfield family? Even if your patriarch came today, he would be buried here!"

As Eli spoke, he took a few steps forward and chopped the eighth-level demon who was shouting into a dead demon with one axe. Then he held the battle axe horizontally and slashed at the rest of the demons.

After seeing Eli's strength, the remaining powerful demons were on guard, but when it was their turn to face Eli's battle axe, all their defenses seemed useless and powerless.

Fast, accurate and ruthless.

These three simple words cut off the chance of survival for the demons present.
