With Gu Xi's move, Bone Shield were placed on the undead fighting ahead, starting with Arroyo.
This was the last solution Gu Xi could come up with.
Gu Xi could see that the black figures were made entirely of Coal Ash.
As long as the Coal Ash remains, they can get back up from the ground at any time.
Gu Xi even speculated that they had used this method to escape from the fire in Victoria City.
The only way to break this method is to dispose of the Coal Ash -like corpse.
There are many ways to dispose of a corpse, but Gu Xi only knows three.
Since the Summoning couldn't turn the enemy into an undead, and the Lesser Corpse Explosion would blow up his own people, Gu Xi naturally chose to use the Bone Shield to enhance the defense of his subordinates.
Although a corpse resembling Coal Ash cannot be used to summon a spirit, it is still a corpse and can be transformed into Bone Shield.
However, the Bone Shield they transformed were all black, and looked like three gray clouds surrounding the undead.
When Arroyo saw this, he knew that Gu Xi was helping him, so he raised his axe and chopped three times, leading his troops forward a distance.
When he had almost exhausted his magical power, Gu Xi turned his hand around.
"The Death Avatar!"
From within the black mist, the Death Avatar burst forth. At this moment, Gu Xi did not ask the Death Avatar to attack anyone, but instead pointed at the Black Shadow that had just been killed in front of him.
"Swallow all this black ash. If you can't swallow it, blow it away."
The Death Avatar only glanced at the battlefield before understanding Gu Xi's plan.
This is black powder that has no intention of leaving the enemy with even a trace of it.
The Death Avatar also understood this. This time, he came out with Crystal Dust Storm. After receiving Gu Xi's order, he kept circling above the Spearmen. When the Black Shadow that were killed turned into black ash, they would be immediately sucked into the black mist by the Death Avatar.
When these black figures were lifted into the air, they tried to transform back into human form, but the Death Avatar forcefully suppressed them, merging all the Black Shadow ash into the black mist.
At first, there was nothing, but as more and more black ash was drawn away, Gu Xi discovered that there seemed to be a figure struggling incessantly in the black mist surrounding the Death Avatar.
These figures did not attack the Death Avatar; instead, they twisted and turned incessantly within the black mist, seemingly trying to escape but unable to.
This situation makes the Death Avatar seem even more eerie.
But Gu Xi was pleasantly surprised to find that the black mist that Death Avatar had undergone significant changes.
It seems that this choice was the right one.
After drinking a bottle of Magic Potion, Gu Xi stopped setting up Bone Shield and left the task of dealing with the battlefield ash to the Death Avatar.
However, Arroyo, who had just received the Bone Shield from Gu Xi, also began to have ideas about Black Grey.
He himself didn't know Bone Shield Art, but he had another idea.
"Everyone, get moving and start spinning the Bone Shield."
The principle Bone Shield is actually quite simple: the shield made of bones hovers around you like a satellite, automatically blocking an attack for you.
As for the speed of rotation, it is actually controlled by those who obtained the Bone Shield.
If you think the Bone Shield is rotating too fast, you can control Bone Shield rotation speed yourself.
Now, under Arroyo's command, all the Bone Shield began to spin at top speed.
Because the Bone Shield were worn on the frontmost Skeleton Soldier, the Skeleton Soldier were crowded together one after another, and the distance between them was very close, causing the Bone Shield to collide with each other.
If it were a regular Bone Shield, it might just get hit and that would be fine.
This time, their Bone Shield were made of black ash, and they shattered on the spot upon impact.
However, since it wasn't attacked, the Bone Shield's effect remains, and the Bone Shield will automatically replenish its black ash.
So the black ash that hadn't been drawn away by the Death Avatar was replenished on the ground.
Before long, the Skeleton Spearman at the front were covered with a layer of black mist.
At the same time, black mist-colored Bone Shield began to appear around the Skeleton Spearman who were not affected by the Bone Shield.
This situation left Gu Xi speechless.
He never expected that Arroyo would have such thoughts.
However, Gu Xi didn't have time to say anything more at this moment, and he pointed his hand forward.
"Move forward, move forward."
Under Gu Xi's command, all troops advanced rapidly, with human soldiers supplementing Robbie's Skeleton Two-handed Swordsman to protect the center.
Feeling insulted, the human soldiers quickened their pace, weapons in hand, eager to reach the enemy as soon as possible.
But no matter how hard they charged, they couldn't catch up with the Spearmen led by Arroyo, let alone the Death Avatar charging forward in the sky.
They charged forward for about 700 Domi, and all the Black Shadow that blocked Gu Xi's path were pulverized into dust, leaving not even a black and gray corpse behind.
Gu Xi turned his head and glanced at the enemies who had just appeared on his left and right sides, ignoring them completely.
"Ignore them, let's go, they can't catch up."
Gu Xi had seen the speed at which the Black Shadow had moved forward.
If Gu Xi had stayed behind to defend, their encirclement could have been completed.
But when Gu Xi accelerated his charge forward, the encirclement was no longer effective. At the speed at which these Black Shadow moved, they simply couldn't catch up with Gu Xi's troops.
This completely stunned the person who had attracted the Black Shadow.
He never expected that his invincible Coal Cinder Troop would be so easily defeated.
He had never encountered such a situation when he fought against several royal carriage teams before.
In fact, he didn't even think about it. When he fought the royal carriage team before, the royal troops were mainly focused on protecting members of the royal family.
They would rather stop in a safe place than actively rush into danger.
That's why we're surrounded.
Furthermore, the Coal Cinder Troop summoned by whistling can Infinite Resurrection as long as the black ash remains, and more than 10,000 cinders can create the effect of a siege by hundreds of thousands of zombies.
His battles were naturally unstoppable.
The situation is different now. Gu Xi has no intention of lingering here and has launched a direct charge against the enemy.
When they charged up, they didn't forget to clean up the battlefield, clearing away the black ash from the coal slag of the fallen soldiers.
Without the black ash, the fallen coal slag would not be resurrected, and their splitting of forces naturally gave Gu Xi the best opportunity.
This allowed them to break through the cinders encirclement, leaving the cinders far behind, and head towards the Victoria Tower.
