Battle Along the Way

Starting from the ruins of the Tenshukaku, Gu Xi discovered that the number of demons coming to cause him trouble along the way had decreased.

Many demons would immediately turn away upon seeing Gu Xi's procession, and nearby Tenshukaku would raise lanterns of different colors in advance.

Although Gu Xi didn't know what the lanterns meant, it was clear that they didn't want to fight.

Gu Xi wanted to just pick any Tenshukaku and storm over there.

But thinking about the guesthouse I rent, I realize it might look like this at night.

Since the other party hadn't offended him, Gu Xi saw no need to go directly to their home.

Gu Xi will only appear if the other party launches an attack.

However, judging from the current situation, very few teams would actively attack Gu Xi's team.

This is not good news.

Gu Xi was hoping to take this opportunity to bring back more undead soldiers.

Thinking about this situation, Gu Xi's eyes couldn't help but wander around. The red dragon in the sky seemed to have lost its morale, silently circling there, without any of its previous momentum.

Just then, Gu Xi suddenly heard a sharp wail.

The sound was thin and piercing, as if it came from the end of a street several kilometers away.

"The Banshee's Wail?"

Gu Xi was also taken aback. This was a necromancer's skill. Gu Xi himself had never learned it, but Luna knew it. Back when Gu Xi was still relatively weak, Luna had personally helped Gu Xi.

It seems there are necromancers fighting ahead.

Normally, Gu Xi wouldn't have thought about it too much, but things are different now.

Gu Xi was idle anyway.

All the demons ran away at the sight of Gu Xi, which meant he hadn't been involved in any battles for some time.

Gu Xi naturally couldn't possibly miss such a lively event.

"Turn around and move out!"

Under Gu Xi's command, the Undead Army quickly changed direction.

After rushing a short distance, Gu Xi saw a tall battle flag standing there.

The battle formation depicts a fish-dragon leaping out of the water, but this fish-dragon is skeletal.

Upon entering the area affected by the battle flag, Gu Xi felt a chill and moisture rush towards him.

Gu Xi immediately learned the origins of the necromancer fighting here.

They came from the number one guild in Bailian City, Corpse Bone Fish Dragon.

Looking over there from a distance, Gu Xi saw that a chaotic battle had broken out.

The necromancer's side had nine players, who surrounded a man dressed in a white bone robe, directing their troops to fight against demons and monsters.

On the battlefield, the nine necromancers cooperated quite well. Two of them were specifically responsible for summoning spirits, while the remaining necromancers each had their own tasks.

The Undead Army they commanded numbered around 2,500, with most of them at level 3 to 5. Gu Xi even saw a squad of Vampire at level 6 or higher alongside the necromancer.

It seems that the number one guild is indeed the number one guild; even ordinary players have so many powerful troops at their disposal.

However, the number of troops besieging them was significantly larger, with nearly twenty Demon Warlock from Cold Leaf City alone.

They brought with them a demon army of over four thousand men.

In addition, there are demon troops that have joined for reasons unknown.

It was obvious that all the demons in the vicinity had been attracted here.

There were more than 4,000 of these demons, making a total of more than 8,000 people fighting against 2,500.

The necromancer's ability to withstand such an attack and even launch a counterattack is quite impressive.

However, they were clearly at a disadvantage at this point.

The undead are not known for their combat prowess; their greatest strength lies in their sheer numbers.

The Bone Sea hasn't even taken shape yet, and it's already being overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of other units, leaving Gu Xi feeling speechless.

After glancing at the situation on the battlefield, Gu Xi made a decision in his heart.

Call them.

Gu Xi put the Main City Gate behind him, and Arroyo led the Black Spear Camp out of the City Gate.

"Fight your way through, until you reach those necromancers."

Arroyo glanced at the demons and monsters along the way, a slight smile appearing on his metallic face.

This kind of crowded battlefield was his favorite battlefield. Only on such a battlefield could Arroyo show people what teamwork meant.

With this thought in mind, Arroyo raised his Battle Axe and took a step forward.

Behind him, all the Spearmen raised their Long Spear.

As soon as they moved, all the demons nearby turned to look.

However, they were unclear about the situation. The troops that rushed out were shrouded in black dust, and it was impossible to see how many there were. The only thing they could see was the cold glint of the soldiers' skin.

"Watch out, it's a mutated Iron Man from the tower. It has high defense and Magic Resistance, but slow movement speed. Get ready to kite it."

Before the Black Spear Camp even reached the battlefield, Gu Xi heard someone roar from among the demon horde.

Following the direction of the sound, Gu Xi discovered that among the demons, there was actually an Order Mage mixed in.

This Order Mage has unleashed his Innate Weirdness; his face is covered in red, purple, and black handprints, each containing a blinking eye.

This strange ability allows him to see the battlefield clearly from all angles.

It was precisely because of this ability that he was assigned to patrol the nearby battlefield, in order to prevent outsiders from sabotaging their operation.

Now that this guy has been targeted by Gu Xi is not going to let him go.

"Troops, move forward, prepare for a full-scale attack!"

The cannon fodder undead who had followed Gu Xi all the way were listening to Gu Xi's words and, without thinking twice, rushed towards these demons.

The demons in that area are like Human Centipede; despite their long length, they move quite quickly on the ground.

Upon seeing the Undead Army charging towards them, hundreds of these Human Centipede spontaneously lunged forward and engaged the cannon fodder undead in battle.

These cannon fodder undead include all sorts of units, and none of them coordinate with each other.

However, Gu Xi's Main City Gate was opened, and his battle flag was raised high.

The spirits under Gu Xi's command all received corresponding blessings.

Even the unorganized soldiers have improved attributes.

Since their numbers were decent, they began to fight these Human Centipede.

Gu Xi, as before, commanded his Undead Army, placing the defensive forces at the front according to the usual pattern, with Skeleton Archer and Skeleton Mage firing from the rear.

He himself focused all his attention on summoning the spirits.

With Gu Xi's intervention, the necromancers surrounded in the center were secretly delighted.

Finally, someone arrived.
