Gu Xi's Mission

The Evil Coffin moved forward very quickly; in the blink of an eye, Liu Zishi led Gu Xi to an open space.

After jumping out of the Evil Coffin, Liu Zishi took out the token given to him by the Mage Leader.

The token was flashing with a blinding light, indicating that this was their target location.

"This is it. I'll put the token here later. Your task is to guard this location until the light on the token disappears."

Upon hearing this task, Gu Xi's eyes narrowed.

There's a saying that goes, "The bigger the story, the fewer words you need."

The task at hand sounds simple, but much is hidden beneath the surface.

It's like guarding this position. How big is this position? If an enemy passes by nearby, should we fight them?

And how long is it to wait until the light on the token disappears?

If Gu Xi can't hold on any longer, will someone come to help?

These are all problems.

However, Liu Zishi had no intention of explaining to Gu Xi. After Gu Xi nodded, he quickly placed the token on the ground.

Gu Xi then discovered that layers of black Magic Array had appeared on the ground, centered on the token.

At the location where the Magic Array spread, Gu Xi could even sense something Worming underground.

Once the black Magic Array expanded into a massive Magic Array with a diameter of about one thousand meters, Gu Xi understood just how large the area he needed to guard was.

At the same time, a platform began to rise from the spot where the token had been placed, and the token was firmly Death-Death on the platform.

The token was emitting a light, and finally, a faint white light enveloped the Magic Array in front of it.

Seeing this, Liu Zishi nodded in satisfaction.

"That's enough, I've finished my business. Now it's your turn."

"Wait, Comrade Liu, I want to ask, if a war breaks out, what will happen to this battlefield..."

"Oh, everything on the battlefield is yours. You can clean up the battlefield yourself. But there's one thing I need to remind you: avoid using Corpse Explosion unless absolutely necessary."

"Why can't we use Corpse Explosion?"

As soon as Gu Xi finished asking his question, he felt the ground shake and some arms emerge from underground.

Then some Skeleton began to rise from the ground.

These Skeleton were clearly Skeleton 0 at first, but under the light of the token, they began to level up rapidly, acquiring Longsword made of bone and shattered armor.

This is?

Gu Xi glanced at Liu Zishi.

Liu Zishi stated definitively, "This is part of the Undead Scourge Magic Array. A large-scale soul-summoning operation is underway in the rear, and the undead will be sent to the front lines through the Magic Array."

Whether you can use these undead to defend this place depends on your own abilities.

By the way, the Magic Array in front of us can only control a maximum of three thousand undead. Once it's full, it will only be replenished when the undead die in battle.

You know the level of the newly summoned undead. Whether you use them as cannon fodder or train them seriously is entirely up to you.

"What about my troops?" Gu Xi asked seriously after hearing Liu Zishi's words.

"No quantity limit."

"I see."

Gu Xi understood the situation immediately, so he planted the Cold Wind Staff heavily in front of the platform, and then the City Gate from Aryadovi City appeared behind Gu Xi.

Gu Xi used the City Gate to protect the platform in front of him that was used to store the tokens.

As the City Gate appeared, Luna led Gu Xi's Undead Army out of Aryadovi.

"Sir, what's going on?"

Looking at the troops following behind Luna, Gu Xi asked with a serious expression, "Luna, how many troops do we have left?"

"The Bonecleaver Battalion 121 men, Battle Squad 1 has 26 men left, Battle Squad 2 has 29 men left, the Skeleton Archer together have 133 men, there are about 39 Zombie left, and 32 Ghost."

Listening to the data reported by Luna, Gu Xi took a deep breath. He knew that he had suffered heavy losses in the Middle District, but he never expected that the losses would be so great.

This almost directly resulted in the loss of half of their troops.

Moreover, Gu Xi didn't even have a chance to summon the spirits of the dead. This time, Gu Xi has to swallow all the losses himself.

"No, Luna, go farm minions. I remember last time I opened a treasure chest I got two Recruitment Scroll. Recruit a batch of Skeleton Soldier and a batch of Skeleton Archer first."

Skeleton Soldier were added to Battle Squad 1, along with Skeleton Archer.

Also, go to the Ghoul Tower Bridge and summon all the Gargoyle for me.

Also, you need to speed up the construction of the Magic Tower and Barracks. After these two Core Building are completed, did you see the ten blueprints I sent back? Build the City Gate, Arrow Tower, and moat in this order, and be quick about it."

Luna had been with Gu Xi for so long that their understanding was the strongest. As soon as she heard the situation, she understood that the current situation was quite dangerous. So she turned around and went back to the city to act according to Gu Xi's instructions.

At this moment, Dimi, who was bored, also walked to the City Gate. She looked at Gu Xi, who was standing on the Evil Coffin with the Frost Staff, and said leisurely.

"My lord, you're about to engage in a great battle, but you don't seem to be in good shape right now. Your magical power is clearly not much. Don't you plan to rest for a while?"

Gu Xi glanced back at Dimi, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm just saying that I can't help you fight right now, but I can still give you a heads-up."

After all, I'm relying on you now, and I don't want to wake up one day to find you and your city gone.

Thank you.

Gu Xi glanced back at Dimi, then quite decisively lay down on the Evil Coffin, draped the Cotton Quilt over his stomach, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

As for the battlefield in front of them, there was no need for Gu Xi to keep an eye on it. Luna was directing wave after wave of the Undead Army out of Aryadovi.

Under the command of the Undead Headman, Gu Xi's Undead Army had already taken their positions on the battlefield.

At the same time, affected by the Undead Scourge Magic Array, one Skeleton after another crawled out from underground.

Their strength was temporarily enhanced under the light.

Of course, their strength cannot be increased indefinitely; depending on the individual strength of the undead, their potential for improvement is also limited.

Some Skeleton can only be upgraded to level 1, while others can be upgraded to level 3.

Without Gu Xi's command, several of Gu Xi's Undead Headman began to actively communicate with the Skeleton who had decent talent, hoping to recruit them into their ranks.

But for some reason, these undead were willing to obey the command of the Undead Headman, but unwilling to join the ranks.

After several attempts, the Undead Headman had no choice but to abandon the formation of these undead and instead try to direct them to position themselves and wait.
