Enemies Besieging the City

With no enemies around, Gu Xi and Du Wushuang chatted happily.

From Du Wushuang, Gu Xi also learned a lot about the Loose Immortal Garden.

He also learned about what happened when the world was invaded by foreign enemies.

"Let me tell you, I was on a mission outside when suddenly a strange unit appeared."

This time, the enemy was no ordinary foe. Not only were they strong, but their abilities were also quite bizarre, especially those wearing White Baboon Skin. I encountered one of them and almost couldn't escape.

After I got back, I asked around and found out that those wearing White Baboon Skin were all leader-level creatures, at least level 9. The fact that I encountered them and came back alive is a testament to my strength.

As Du Wushuang spoke, his full-body armor Helmet was tilted upwards, his expression clearly saying, "Come on, give him a compliment! Don't you want to flatter someone who's bragging?"

Gu Xi thought about it seriously for a moment, then took out two pieces of White Baboon Skin and asked calmly, "You mean this kind?"

"Ugh, it's so boring talking to someone like you."

Du Wushuang was also speechless. If it weren't for the Helmet covering her head, Gu Xi could have seen her rolling her eyes.

Gu Xi chuckled, about to say something, when suddenly he stood up straight.

"There are enemies, two of them. Does it matter what's behind us?"

When Gu Xi spotted the enemy, Du Wushuang also saw the enemy appear.

She had no time to answer Gu Xi's question; her eyes were fixed on the suddenly appearing enemy.

Just as Gu Xi had said, two groups of enemies suddenly emerged from the Princess's Forest ahead.

Leading the charge was a Headless Knight, clad in heavy black armor. Because he had no head, a head covered in White Baboon Skin rested on Headless Knight neck.

He rode a tall warhorse, without any subordinates behind him, holding Long Spear in one hand and a long string of human heads in the other.

After rushing out, the Long Spear he raised was pointed directly at Du Wushuang's position.

As the Headless Knight charged out, another Otherworldy Ghost Leader slowly emerged from behind him.

This is a gaunt Old Woman, followed by a large number of crucibles with legs.

As she came out, the Old Woman tugged at the White Baboon Skin draped over her body and grinned at Gu Xi.

Before Gu Xi could say anything, liquids of different colors gushed out from the crucibles with legs, turning into twisted slimes in front of the Old Woman.

"Who are these people?"

As Gu Xi complained, he pointed forward, and the Skeleton Soldier of the Bonecleaver Battalion quickly moved forward. At the same time, Zombie and Ghost protected Gu Xi, and the Skeleton Archer raised their bows and arrows, preparing for the first wave of attack.

Upon seeing Gu Xi's response, the Headless Knight turned his Long Spear towards Gu Xi. It was clear that the Headless Knight had realized that Gu Xi was the commander of the Undead Army in front of him and was a priority to kill on the battlefield.

At this moment, although Du Wushuang knew that there was a big difference in level between him and the Headless Knight, he still stepped forward and stood in front of the Headless Knight's Long Spear.

In Du Wushuang's mind, Gu Xi was a necromancer who had no melee ability, so he had to accept the Headless Knight's provocation.

Even if we die in battle, we must ensure Gu Xi's survival.

Only in this way can Gu Xi's troops have a chance of existence.

Seeing Du Wushuang's actions, the Headless Knight was also somewhat dissatisfied, feeling that he was being looked down upon.

A level 4 Death Knight dares to come out and provoke us.

So the Headless Knight spurred his horse and charged swiftly toward Du Wushuang.

At this moment, Gu Xi also waved his hand heavily, and the Skeleton Archer's arrows were even faster than Du Wushuang's.

All the arrows were concentrated on the Headless Knight.

In an instant, they managed to knock the Headless Knight back several steps.

Fortunately, at this moment, the strange Old Woman had also finished separating her minions, and slimes of various colors began to jump and rush towards Gu Xi.

Gu Xi then shifted his attention from the Headless Knight to the slimes, and his Skeleton Soldier immediately engaged the slimes in battle.

At this moment, Gu Xi saw the slime's condition.

These slimes are all liquids, and they have different effects depending on their color: green is poisonous, blue has icy properties, red explodes, and tan is corrosive.

Their level isn't too high, somewhere between level 4 and 6, but they're quite troublesome to fight.

Arrows are not very effective against them; even with arrows stuck in their bodies, these slimes can still jump around and attack.

Longsword can cut them in two, but they will quickly reassemble.

It's clear that no amount of cutting will help until their life force is completely depleted.

At the same time, Gu Xi also noticed something: after all the slimes were released, the cauldrons with legs squatted down on their own and lit a fire, looking as if they were preparing to brew another potion.

This situation gave Gu Xi some ideas.

"Zombie, is there any way to drag those cauldrons over here?"

Gu Xi was asking about the Heavy Armor Zombie he had left behind.

They held shields in one hand and Iron Hook in the other, keeping a close eye on the situation on the battlefield.

Upon hearing Gu Xi's order, they all shook their heads.

The Old Woman had a good understanding of the undead's abilities. She placed the cauldrons far away from Gu Xi, so they had no way to get past them before killing the slimes in front of them.

Even the Skeleton Archer couldn't hit those crucibles.

By this time, the Headless Knight had also been enraged by the Skeleton Archer. After being driven back three times in a row, the Headless Knight pointed his Long Spear at the ground, and his warhorse seemed to burst into flames, turning into fire as it charged towards the Skeleton Archer's ranks.

The impact was like a rocket, instantly piercing into the Skeleton Archer.

Gu Xi heard a loud bang, and an explosion occurred in the Skeleton Archer's ranks, sending a large number of limb fragments flying everywhere.

Without thinking much, Gu Xi pointed directly at the spot where the explosion had occurred.

"Corpse Explosion!"

After unleashing ten consecutive Corpse Explosion until the sound of explosions ceased, Gu Xi finally stopped using Corpse Explosion on that location.

The Headless Knight probably didn't expect Gu Xi to react so quickly and use such a simple and direct method.

He killed quite a few Skeleton Archer with that last attack, but he took all the hits from the explosions that followed.

When the dust and smoke from the explosion cleared, Gu Xi discovered that the flames on the Headless Knight's body had disappeared, and his armor was riddled with dents.

As soon as he rushed out, he roared at Gu Xi and charged towards Gu Xi on his Death Fate.
