Chapter 50 Scouting the Enemy
Due to some reasons, Eli's army was delayed for half an hour.
Half an hour later, Eli, who looked normal, led the army to set off towards the city they had recaptured earlier.
Before, they fought their way through many cities and killed countless demons. A large number of demon corpses were buried outside every recovered city. Now is the time to use them.
The demons are still on the defensive, so Eli's army moved very smoothly along the way, and soon arrived outside a city with the flag of the coalition of hundreds of tribes flying.
After meeting with the few soldiers left behind in the city, Eli arranged for manpower to start digging a mass grave a little further outside the city.
Because the burial time was not too long and the weather was good, the demon corpses exhumed by the soldiers were not seriously decayed, but the smell was a bit unpleasant.
Although she had dealt with corpses a lot since she started practicing necromancy magic, Evelin frowned after smelling the pungent smell of corpses. The corpses are different...
Fortunately, the magic of summoning undead creatures does not require contact with corpses. Standing at the edge of the mass grave, Evelin recited a spell silently in her heart, and then raised her hand to point to the huge pit where many demon corpses were buried.
At Evelin's finger, the demon corpses that had been lying there quietly began to move. First, many dead demons opened their eyes, and faint soul fire appeared in their eyes. Then these demons who lit up the soul fire The clan corpses climbed up from the bottom of the pit. Under Evelin's command, they crawled out of the 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, sweat appeared on Evelin's forehead. Although the magic power had not been exhausted, there was not much left.
This is a post-war corpse burial site in a small city. There are about 65,000 demon corpses in the mass grave. There is still some unused quota before Evelin's normal limit. You can also go to the next city to give it to She fills up the number of summons.
So, Eli's army set off again, preparing to go to the next burial site. However, this time, his army was followed by 65,000 undead demons from a distance.
The road after that was still calm. The demons who had mastered the secret method of mutation but were unable to control and command the mutated demon soldiers did not launch a counterattack against the coalition of hundreds of races. They were still huddled in various cities and military camps. The only change was that from the numerous Evacuate the small town and try to gather your troops in one place to avoid being defeated one by one.
It didn't take long for Eli's army to arrive at another recaptured town. The operations were still the same as before. The soldiers dug out mass graves, and Evelin used necromancy magic to remove the demon corpses in the pits. Transformed into an undead demon.
However, the transformation this time was much less than the last time. After summoning 20,000 undead demons, Evelin waved her hand towards Eli, then wiped the sweat from her forehead, her magic power was almost sustained. Can't stand it anymore...
Including the 65,000 undead demons controlled outside the previous city, Evelin transformed and controlled a total of 85,000 undead demons, which was 5,000 more than the estimated 80,000. It was a small amount. surprise.
With the help of these 85,000 undead demons, Eli can continue to attack the city and kill the demons, but before that, he plans to join up with the other army that he divided before. After the demons possess the secret method of mutation, , the number of high-level strong men under his command has become the key, not to mention that he is looking forward to harvesting one or more necromancers from another army.
Wendy and other elves who are not afraid of interception are still serving as messengers, while Eli's army is stationed in the nearest small town, waiting for another army to arrive and join them.
During the waiting time, Eli was not idle. He asked his lieutenants Rondo and Evelin to sit in the camp, while he led the vanguard out of the city to find where the demons gathered their troops and make preparations before the war. .
When he first divided his troops, he only brought five seventh-level powerhouses and an army of 150,000. Before experiencing the changes in the demon clan, he had grown to an army of 400,000, and the number of high-level powerhouses also increased from five to 18. People, four of them are eighth-level experts.
Eli's army never used high-ranking strong men as commanders. He always regarded the army as the army and the high-ranking strong men as the vanguard.
Therefore, when the vanguard, all members of which were high-level experts, moved faster than the cavalry battalion, during their rapid march, they passed many small towns where the demons had evacuated. They did not stop at such cities. , continue to move deeper into the war zone.
At noon, Eli and his vanguard finally encountered a city where demons were stationed. Under the investigation of Eli's soul, there were at least 500,000 demon soldiers and more than 20 demons gathered in this city. A high-ranking and powerful member of the clan.
Compared with 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's side in terms of high-end combat power.
Because he was too strong in the previous battle, the demons suspected that they were haunted by saints. Therefore, without guaranteeing that all of them would be silenced, Eli was not ready to personally kill the enemy's high-level experts. After all, he can't always find out all the special demons hidden among the demon soldiers.
Of course, now that he has Evelin and the undead demons under her command, he has been able to ensure that all the demon defenders he encounters are carried away. However, this operation is just to investigate the enemy's situation while waiting, not Need to take action.
So, after marking the city on the map, Eli led the vanguard team away from here, bypassing the city far away and searching deeper into the war zone.
After a whole day, Eli's army map marked seven cities with demon troops stationed, and there were nearly a hundred empty cities and some small and medium-sized military camps where demons had gone.
"It's getting late, let's camp here and rest for a night. Tomorrow we will start to split up and disperse, and continue to scout in groups of three like today, and try to mark all the nearby small war zones clearly before joining forces."
In the deep night, Eli turned to the vanguard team and said that in order to improve the efficiency of attacking cities and destroying demons, and in order to prevent the army from running away from empty cities, they had to work hard for high-level strongmen to serve as scouts.
After all, the war with the demons at this time is no longer a matter of destroying one city after another. It is necessary to find the gathering places of the demons first before hitting them accurately.
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...
