At the sight before him, Gu Xi laughed instead.
Were they bullying him because he had no Flying Troops?
They were overthinking it. Did they really think this would let them take Gu Xi's camp?
After shaking his head, Gu Xi gave the order directly. "Wei Hu, you take command."
Hearing Gu Xi's voice, Wei Hu turned his head and saw Gu Xi standing atop the Summoning Tower, nodding at him.
"Sir Colonel, you're back?"
"I was here all along. You command. I want to see what you can do."
Gu Xi spoke calmly.
After returning from the Ten Thousand Banners Ghost Domain, Gu Xi had formed a different plan.
He was short on people, mainly Heroes and Leaders.
Although he could replenish some through constant battles and the method of Dual Death, that was clearly not enough.
Gu Xi needed to train some talented Heroes and Leaders himself.
Wei Hu before him was Gu Xi's first choice.
Setting aside whether Wei Hu had talent or not, his quick-wittedness alone made him hard not to like.
Moreover, he had ambitions of his own and knew how to command troops.
Most importantly, Wei Hu seemed to have already awakened a Hero's talent. Though he had not displayed it yet, Gu Xi could already see some clues from the way he acted.
More importantly, Gu Xi understood Wei Hu's previous circumstances. He belonged to the warrior path.
His experiences in the Omatikaya Rainforest had made Gu Xi realize that Wei Hu might possess the potential to become an epic.
Under such circumstances, Gu Xi would naturally give Wei Hu more opportunities.
But Wei Hu did not know what Gu Xi was thinking. He pointed at himself.
"Me?"
"What, you undead aren't willing to let yourself command?"
Gu Xi glanced at Wei Hu.
