As a ranged unit, the Skeleton Mage were closest to Gu Xi, and upon hearing Gu Xi's order, they immediately sprang into action.

As they Extract Mana, Gu Xi turned his gaze to the locations he could see.

Sure enough, as the Skeleton Mage began to Extract Mana, there were some unusual movements in the locations that Gu Xi was paying attention to.

It seems that, just as he guessed, there are Hero in those positions.

With a quick glance, Gu Xi swiftly issued the latest order.

The Zombie Axe Shield, stood in five rows, blocking the enemy cavalry charge. Behind them were all of Gu Xi's Skeleton Archer and Skeleton Mage.

Gu Xi had already thought of a way to deal with the cavalry: use Zombie to hold off the enemy while archers and spells attack.

The remaining troops will be mobilized at this time to deal with other enemies.

Seeing the enemies who had already gathered, Gu Xi had no intention of waiting for them to launch an attack.

He held up the Cold Wind Staff, setting up numerous Flame Trap around himself, while pointing towards the location with the largest number of undead.

"Attack!"

The attacking force consisted of Gu Xi's Skeleton Spearman.

Although they no longer have the Skeleton Head from Battle Squad 1 to command them, their strength is actually not bad. After several expeditions, they are no longer the rookies who only have high levels.

Under the command of the four Skeleton Head, they placed the experienced Skeleton Spearman at the front, forming a neat battle formation, and charged towards the area with the most undead.

The undead on the other side were completely stunned when faced with the charge of the Skeleton Spearman.

They didn't expect Gu Xi to take the initiative to send out troops at this time.

So the Undead Hero quickly made their choices. From the group of undead that were attacked, a large number of Zombie immediately stepped forward, and behind them were several Skeleton Archer carrying huge bows and arrows, ready to fire in short bursts.

Further on are the Skeleton Soldier, which are the most numerous among these undead.

Unlike Gu Xi, who usually used Skeleton Spearman, these Skeleton Soldiers were mostly orthodox Skeleton Soldier, the kind that carried swords and shields.

In Gu Xi's view, these are actually the most difficult to deal with because of their characteristics; Spearmen's piercing attacks do relatively little damage to them.

Furthermore, these Skeleton Soldiers are all of relatively high level, and most of them are even warriors. If a real fight breaks out, Gu Xi's Skeleton Spearman would probably be no match for them.

However, what Gu Xi needed was not for the Skeleton Spearman to kill all the enemies, but to hold them off so that Gu Xi could deal with two waves of Ghost.

After distributing the spirits, Gu Xi took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the Ghost Maid's position.

The reason for choosing the Ghost Maid was not because they looked weak, but because of these two groups of Ghost, the Ghost Maid were the closest to Gu Xi.

The Ghost Maid had actually seen Gu Xi make his move. They hadn't expected that after Gu Xi deployed the largest number of the Undead Army, he would attack them. In the Ghost Maid's minds, Gu Xi's target should have been another Ghost Squad.

In fact, they never expected that Gu Xi chose them as targets for only one reason: they lived relatively close by.

Faced with such an enemy, Gu Xi immediately used his Magic Arrow.

The newly learned magic flight has the longest range, and it is also a magical attack, not a physical attack. Such an attack will deal 100% damage to Ghost.

As a Flying Sword made of ice struck the Ghost Maid, the Ghost Maid began to rush towards Gu Xi.

Gu Xi estimated the power of the Magic Arrow and made a certain judgment about the Ghost Maid's strength.

Their health is at least 60 or higher, and their defense is also relatively high. Gu Xi's Magic Arrow hits them, it is possible that it will only seriously injure the enemy.

If you can't kill the enemy instantly, then using the Magic Arrow would be a waste.

If two Magic Arrow can only kill one Ghost Maid, then Gu Xi might as well just use Bone Spike.

Fortunately, Gu Xi didn't expect to wipe out all the Ghost Maid at first. When they rushed towards him, Gu Xi immediately changed his tactics.

"White Bone Storm!"

Numerous White Bone Shards appeared in the direction the Ghost Maid was heading.

The Ghost Maid flew incredibly fast, and just as Gu Xi unleashed the White Bone Storm, they rushed right into it.

While Ghost can be immune to physical attacks, the immunity is only 50% chance, not that they completely ignore physical attacks. White Bone Storm is a large-scale, wide-range attack method.

The Ghost Maid was hit by hundreds of attacks within seconds when she entered the attack zone of the White Bone Storm.

These attacks also come with an icy effect, which Ghost cannot be immune to.

As a result, the fastest flying Ghost Maid were immediately turned into white light by the White Bone Storm and disappeared from the Ghost Maid's group.

The Ghost Maid behind her saw that something was wrong and wanted to stop, but it was too late. After confirming the effect of the White Bone Storm, Gu Xi quickly added two more White Bone Storm and attacked the Ghost Maid's group from the left and right.

At this moment, the Hero hidden within the Ghost Maid's party finally made his move.

That was a Ghost that was no different from the other Ghost Maid.

She always flew at the back of the group.

When Gu Xi's White Bone Storm attacked them this time, the Ghost Maid finally stepped forward, her body changing from its original blue semi-transparent form to a vermilion semi-transparent one.

After flying out, she stretched out her hands, and something like Defense Shield appeared around the Ghost Maid team. At the same time, all the Ghost Maid quickly squeezed inward, so that they could fly towards Gu Xi together inside the Defense Shield.

Gu Xi immediately understood what they wanted to do.

This was clearly an attempt to use the Defense Shield to block the attack of the White Bone Storm and then kill their way to Gu Xi.

Their gathering together gave Gu Xi an opportunity.

Looking at the nearly 300 points of mana he had left, Gu Xi gritted his teeth, pointed at the Ghost Maid's location, and said something.

"The Death Avatar!"

The Death Avatar, who had been recuperating in the Dragonbone Laboratory, rushed out from behind Gu Xi.

Because the Crystal Dust Storm and Black Mist, along with the Dissolving Ray, were all sealed by the Joker, and it would take another half day before they could be unsealed, Gu Xi initially didn't want to release the Death Avatar.

But now that such a good opportunity has presented itself, Gu Xi doesn't want to miss it.

Thus, for the first time without the black mist accompanying him, the Death Avatar appeared on the battlefield.

The moment the black, metallic-looking Bone Dragon appeared, it attracted everyone's attention.
