Who told him to rush up there?

Chapter 6: Life will never last more than three years



"Ah~"

"Ah~"

Amid the young dragon's unwilling howls, a team arranged by Londo escorted it back and forth. This team was led by a centurion to prevent the young dragon from running around on the road.

When the young dragon Alyssa was pulled farther and farther away by the temporary huge cart, the guards who had rested for a long time set out again and marched quickly to the border. After handling his "private affairs", Eli continued to act as an unknown scanner, keeping an eye on everything around him at any time.

For several days afterwards, the team marched non-stop on the road except for eating and sleeping. The target Demon Hunting City was not too far away. In such a place, Eli was able to include the Demon Hunting City in his scanning range.

From his distant perception, the entire Demon Hunting City seemed to be shrouded in a layer of haze. There were few civilians in the city, mostly soldiers fighting against the demons. Among them, there were a small number of "people" with the breath of the demons hiding in various parts of the city, carrying out sabotage actions in the dark from time to time.

"Take a temporary rest for half an hour, and then march to the Demon Hunting City in one breath. We must enter the city before dark today."

Elai stopped his horse and conveyed the order. Under his order, the entire guard stopped instantly, and then dispersed to find a place to rest temporarily.

For the next half an hour, Eli got off his horse, found a big tree to lean against, and then closed his eyes to take a nap. To outsiders, he was really tired and took a rest. In fact, his soul had already entered the Demon Hunting City at this time. With his current strength, as long as it was within his "scanning" range, his soul could arrive in an instant.

Entering the city alone without telling his subordinates, Eli had to do something that was not convenient for others to know. In his opinion, the demons on the battlefield were easy to deal with. He could just rush up and kill them without leaving a single breath.

The demon traitors hidden in his own family were a trouble. If he wanted to catch them and kill them directly, he had to prepare evidence to prevent other soldiers from misunderstanding or even having a different mind. However, collecting evidence of treason was not an easy task. Eli had no interest or patience to do it.

In half an hour, Eli's soul traveled throughout the Demon Hunting City. The demon traitors who were carrying out and planning sabotage operations all died silently in deserted places. Their bodies all burned without fire, and even their ashes were not left. Those demon traitors who were still hiding were named by the King of Hell one by one because they were contaminated with demonic breath, and they disappeared without a trace, both their bodies and their souls.

As for whether there was a possibility of manslaughter, Eli was still confident that no one could be let go, and no one would be killed by mistake.

When his spirit came back to his body, Eli opened his eyes from his sleep, and then naturally summoned his subordinates to continue marching to the Demon Hunting City.

Eli estimated the marching speed of the team very accurately. Before it got dark, the guards had arrived at the Demon Hunting City, and the Demon Hunting City was in a brief chaos because of the sudden lack of "people".

After all, some demon traitors may be just local hooligans or ordinary soldiers who love to cause trouble, while some demon traitors have been promoted to the position of centurion or even higher. When the acting city lord of the Demon Hunting City was in a mess because of the collective disappearance, Eli arrived.

He came at the right time. The acting city lord led his team out of the city to welcome the real city lord into the city, and then threw away the trouble, handed over the city lord's seal on the spot, and ran away directly after leaving office.

Acting city lord Mann was originally a general of the border army. After the previous city lord of the Demon Hunter City died in battle, he took over the position of city lord before the new city lord took office. Mann, a pure military general, was not suitable to be a city lord. He had a headache when something happened. He was stiff after being the city lord for a few days. Fortunately, when he ran into trouble again, the new city lord arrived. If he didn't escape now, when would he?

After Mann left, Eli led his army into the city. Deputy General Rondo did not follow him to the city lord's mansion, but went to the military camp with the guards.

Eli moved into the city lord's mansion, which was not much more luxurious than a residential house, with two personal guards. The servants left by the previous city lord came to pay homage to the new city lord and were sent away by Eli.

There was no welcome ceremony, let alone a welcoming dinner. Not only did Eli want to keep everything simple, but the conditions of the Demon Hunter City forced him to keep it simple.

As the new city lord, Eli simply explained the disappearance that happened today and then did not follow up. He and his troops arrived in the Demon Hunting City long after the incident, so naturally no one would think that the disappearance was related to the new city lord.

And the cold treatment of the city lord Eli by the city lord was just regarded as the arrogance shared by the children of the nobles, and no one commented on it.

Afterwards, the city lord's mansion sent a message to the outside world that the city lord Eli came to the Demon Hunting City to fight. He was a pure warrior, and he dominated the battlefield. Everything else was handled by Rondo, who had just been appointed as the deputy city lord.

That night, after a simple dinner, the deputy city lord Rondo went to deal with a lot of affairs with a bitter face, and the city lord Eli took Jessica and Cecilia to the city wall facing the outside world.

Standing on the tall city wall with a cold wind, Eli looked at the misty world in the distance. His eyes passed through the darkness and haze and looked directly at the camp of the demons.

That’s right, there is a demon camp less than ten kilometers away from the Demon Hunting City. The Demon Hunting City is the front line, and it really is the front line. There is a possibility of war at any time and anywhere, or it can be said that war is going on at any time and anywhere. The current tranquility is just a rare rest time.

A few days before Eli came to Demon Hunting City, a small-scale battle had just occurred outside Demon Hunting City. Both sides had killed and injured hundreds of people (demon). At that time, the battle was commanded by the acting city lord Mann. , in a previous battle, the former city lord was injured on the city wall by a high-level demon clan strongman who had attacked first, and died of serious injuries in the city lord's mansion after the war.

This is war, a battle between two realms that has lasted for thousands of years. On one side is the invading demon world, and on the other is the coalition of hundreds of tribes defending the land. Countless lives are lost on the battlefield every day. If it were not for the profound heritage of the hundreds of tribes, there would be more fertility. The human race with astonishing abilities and growth rate, and the almost endless number of sea race beings, might have long been devoured by the demon race where all the people are under attack.

But even so, the coalition of hundreds of races after a thousand years can no longer bear the name of a hundred races. In the long war, more than twenty races have permanently disappeared from this world.

"For thousands of years, the frontline of the coalition of hundreds of tribes has retreated again and again. Now half of the continent has fallen into the hands of the demons. Starting from myself, the front line of Demon Hunting City will no longer retreat. This will be a fortress that the demons can never break."

Looking at the demonic military camp in the distance, Eli murmured in a low voice. In his previous life, he traveled through time and did nothing. Now he is reborn in this life and wants to sweep everything away. In his lifetime, he will not let the demons take another step forward from him!
