Chapter 15: Jungle
The so-called wilding refers to wandering in the wild of the demon territory, looking for small and medium-sized gathering points of the demons, and brushing the scattered demon soldiers there.
The demons now occupy half of the continent. In addition to countless towns of various tribes, there are also countless common or rare resources.
Towns that are broken by the demons will naturally be occupied by their garrisons, and the occupied resource points will naturally be stationed by demon troops.
However, compared with towns, the demon troops stationed at resource points are more like supervisors, and the number is not too large, unless they are particularly rare resources.
Wilding is to fight the scattered demon troops at those ordinary resource points. Although brushing these scattered soldiers does not kill many demons, it can also rescue some prisoners or people of various tribes who are caught for hard labor.
More than half of the continent has fallen, and the hundreds of tribes do not know how many soldiers, civilians, and even nobles and royal families have been bullied and enslaved by the demons. The severe war situation makes it impossible to counterattack the homeland, and the people in the occupied areas have been living in dire straits.
Eli is not a pushover, but he doesn't mind doing good deeds within his power, killing demons and saving some suffering allies.
After deciding on today's itinerary, Eli quickly rode out of the city with Jessica and Cecilia, heading for a place more remote than the Demon Hunting City.
In the previous life, the Demon Hunting City was extremely difficult to defend, and there was no ability to hunt in the wild, which also prevented the Demon Hunting City from having the opportunity to grow itself, but now it is different. The city lord has changed, and the city will naturally change.
For the first time out of the city to hunt in the wild, Eli, whose soul has a wide range of exploration, first chose a small mining area as the first battle. There are a total of 500 demon soldiers, 5 centurions, and about 7,000 miners in this mining area.
Just like on the battlefield, even the wild is led by Eli, while Jessica and Cecilia attack from the flank, intending to kill all the way from the gate to the end of the camp.
"Who are you!"
Because they had been at ease for too long, the demons in the mining area had never thought of being attacked from outside, so there were only supervisors who were bloody suppressing the internal forces, and no sentinels to guard against the external forces.
It was not until Eli and the other two rushed to the vicinity that the demons with eyes that were not blind discovered that there were foreign enemies coming.
There were only five hundred demons, not to mention the two great helpers of Jessica and Cecilia, even if Eli came alone, he could kill them.
The only thing that made Eli and the other two uncomfortable was that although the mining area was not large, when the five hundred demons were scattered, it would take a lot of effort to kill them all.
The battle started quickly and ended slowly. After a brief period of confusion, the laborers of various races in this area quickly rose up in resistance and participated in the great cause of killing demons. With their cooperation, Eli and the other two killed the scattered demon soldiers and blood flowed into a river, with corpses everywhere.
Of course, the demons who ran into Eli head-on were not lucky enough to leave their bodies behind. They could only turn into blood foam that moistened the land and flowed on the ground.
After the war, when counting the number of people, there were only 6,700 of the 7,000 laborers left. The five centurions of the demons all turned into blood foam, and the 500 demon soldiers died in the mining area except for a few demons who escaped.
"We still have to go to other places to kill demons and save people. Here is a map for you. You can go to the Demon Hunting City by yourself, and someone will naturally receive you."
Without staying here to enjoy the cheers and thanks of the laborers, Eli and the other two left a map and rode away on their horses, leaving only a group of rescued laborers in the wind.
After that, Eli relied on his broad "vision" to attack mines and villages all the way. While killing countless demons, he also rescued many captives.
At the end of the day, Eli and the other two brushed more than a dozen large and small demon resource points, killed about 10,000 demons, and rescued nearly 100,000 allies.
For the small Demon Hunting City, a "population" increase of 100,000 is a great development. After all, the original number of soldiers and civilians in the Demon Hunting City was less than 30,000. It would be hard not to grow if it absorbed a "population" three times its own.
Unknowingly, night began to fall.
The trio who had killed demons for a day were preparing to return. Although the three were not picky about accommodation conditions, no one was willing to camp in the wild if they had a home to return to, of course, except for those with special hobbies.
The three hurried and finally returned to the vicinity of the Demon Hunting City in the middle of the night, but before they could enter the city, they were blocked outside the city gate.
It turned out that the captives they had rescued before were still queuing to enter the city. The people behind heard the sound of horse hooves, turned around and recognized their saviors, so these people did not line up, and ran over to surround the trio.
Although these people came to thank him, Eli did not want their thanks, but hoped that they could replenish the troops of the Demon Hunting City. Every time the Demon Hunting City grew a little, he could lead the army to kill one more demon.
Fortunately, Rondo is a man who can really do things. After seeing the trio from afar on the tower, he quickly led the army to greet them. After the army was dispatched, the trio was finally pulled out of the encirclement.
After entering the city, Eli arranged all the subsequent trivial matters to Rondo and took Jessica and Cecilia back to the city lord's mansion. Most of his time is precious and should not be wasted on these things.
After fighting with the demons for a day, although the strength of Eli's trio was not contaminated by the demon blood, the three of them chose to take a bath first after returning.
The simple city lord's mansion, which looked like a civilian residence, had only a small bathroom. It was not impossible to accommodate three people, but Jessica and Cecilia, who were willing to sleep with him, shyly pushed him out the door tonight.
They could sleep together, so why couldn't they take a bath together? Eli couldn't figure it out, but since he had been pushed out, he didn't force his way in.
Those who know how fast women take a bath know, especially when two women take a bath together.
After waiting at the door of the room for a long time, Eli finally waited until the two women who had taken a bath walked out of the bathroom hand in hand.
"The bath water has been changed for the master, so go take a bath too."
Cecilia held Jessica's hand with one hand, and Eli took the underwear they had changed with the other hand without any hesitation. After simply urging the master, the two of them went straight back to their own room.
Why change the bath water? It's not dirty to begin with, and I don't dislike it. It's just a waste of water resources.
Thinking about all sorts of things, Eli walked into the bathroom. After soaking in the bathtub with the newly changed hot water and the still fragrant smell, Eli closed his eyes comfortably.
But just after closing his eyes for a while, his eyes suddenly opened again, and then a helpless bitter smile appeared on his face.
According to his perception, a young dragon was running panting on the road far away from the Demon Hunting City, and behind it was a small group of human masters who were marching quickly...
