A Swift Battle

[When the Skeleton Mage (Summoned Creature) kills Evil Ghoul (level 8), you gain 1 experience point, and the Summoned Creature gains 33 experience points.]

[The Evil Ghoul Gastric Juices; other Evil Ghoul gain +1 attack power.]

[Note: Your level will increase by 1 for every 100 Evil Ghoul that die, up to a maximum of level 13. When the number of corrupted ghouls that die exceeds 1000, a BOSS-level monster will appear.]

Gu Xi frowned as he looked at the information that popped up in front of him.

What's going on? Does the system give me a notification when I fight the Evil God Temple? Although he was puzzled, he already understood most of the enemy's situation, so Gu Xi didn't intend to leave the enemy unattended.

"The Skeleton Mage who used Lightning Arrow and Ice Arrow Art continue, the remaining Skeleton Mage prepare to use Slow Spell."

Gu Xi gave the order decisively.

The only apparent ability of these Evil Ghoul is their rolling ability, which resembles Siege Ram when they crash into something. Therefore, slowing them down is the best option to deal with them.

Now that Gu Xi plans to set up the battlefield for the Undead Tendrils in advance, the task of slowing down the enemy naturally falls to the Skeleton Mage.

Those Skeleton Mage who had already realized that their spells were ineffective naturally used the Slow Spell immediately to slow down the movements of the Red Hair Human Ball —no, the Evil Ghoul.

The few Skeleton Mage who knew how to cast Lightning Arrow were using it repeatedly.

At this moment, Gu Xi noticed that as one Evil Ghoul after another died in battle, the strength of the Evil Ghoul also began to increase.

Sometimes Evil Ghoul gain increased defense, sometimes increased vitality, but it's clear that with each one that dies, one of their attributes always gets boosted.

At first, Gu Xi didn't care much, but after fifty of the Evil Ghoul died in battle, Gu Xi's expression turned somewhat grim.

He had already realized that if things continued like this, when a thousand Evil Ghoul were killed and a boss spawned, Gu Xi would be facing an opponent with attack power reaching several hundred.

Who could defeat such a being?

Gu Xi's two Death Avatar could only withstand two moves.

If this is the boss of the first level, then there's no need to fight the rest.

There must be other solutions.

As Gu Xi laid out the Undead Tendrils, he observed the surrounding situation, pondering in his mind that if things didn't work out, he would open the Steel City Gate.

Use the City Gate to hold off the enemy, then use the Earthbound Weird Dragon to deal with the BOSS.

However, before that, we need to figure out whether the BOSS uses physical attacks or magical attacks.

After all, this is what the Earthbound Weird Dragon relies on to fight.

Just then, a buzzing sound suddenly came from behind Gu Xi.

Gu Xi turned around and saw a large swarm of Evil Bone Locust flying towards them.

They flew along, devouring every pile of food they could see, and were heading this way.

As they flew over the food piles, they always left behind a large number of black, granular Evil Qi Fragment. However, Gu Xi could see that whenever they flew over a food pile, their numbers would increase significantly.

It seems that these Evil Bone Locust are also constantly replenishing the Swarm's numbers during the process of devouring.

When these Evil Bone Locust flew behind Gu Xi, their numbers had reached their peak.

Gu Xi glanced at it and already had the corresponding number in his mind: Evil Bone Locust, all level 4, a total of 65 groups, 1,000 in each group, totaling 65,000.

After flying behind Gu Xi, all the Evil Bone Locust landed on the ground, staring at the Evil Ghoul not far away, waiting for Gu Xi's command.

Upon seeing this situation, a thought flashed through Gu Xi's mind.

How about we try a large-scale attack and kill all the Evil Ghoul here? There shouldn't be more than a thousand Evil Ghoul here. With so many Evil Bone Locust, each Evil Ghoul could be attacked by 65 Evil Bone Locust.

Such an attack is roughly equivalent to 65 level 4 Skeleton Soldier besieging Evil Ghoul.

Even if there are some losses, the impact will be minimal.

These thoughts flashed through Gu Xi's mind, and finally coalesced into a single sentence.

'I'll take the bet!'

Thinking of this, Gu Xi decisively stood up and ordered the increasing number of Evil Ghoul in front of him, "Evil Bone Locust, deal with the enemy in batches. Assign 50 Evil Bone Locust to each Evil Ghoul."

Attack with all your might and kill them both at the same time!

At Gu Xi's command, the Evil Bone Locust, which had just landed on the ground, quickly took flight and pounced on the Evil Ghoul.

Then Gu Xi turned to look at the Giant Skeleton that had been following behind him.

"Prepare your Lightning Arrow."

The Giant Skeleton had just seen what was happening on the Skeleton Mage's side. He knew the enemy was weak to electricity, and now Gu Xi was preparing to make his move. If the enemy wasn't killed, he would be the first to strike.

The Giant Skeleton took a step forward, raised its right hand above its head, and Lightning Arrow began to appear in its hand.

However, he did not throw the lightning bolt. Instead, he began to gather his strength. Soon, the lightning bolt began to condense into Long Spear in his hand. He kept repeating the condensation process, and slowly the color of the lightning bolt began to change, from the original bright blue to the current dark purple.

At that moment, all the Evil Bone Locust also rushed out.

These Evil Bone Locust were fairly fast; as soon as they rushed out, they flew into the sky.

Because these Evil Bone Locust did not attack them, the Evil Ghoul Evil Bone Locust them, giving them the opportunity to lock onto everything in the sky.

Finally, the Evil Bone Locust in the sky split up, forming a squad of fifty, and swarmed down at the Evil Ghoul below.

Meanwhile, the Evil Ghoul were preparing to roll up again, trying to crash into Gu Xi's troops and break through Gu Xi's battle formation.

But at that moment, all the Evil Bone Locust in the sky swooped down and bit heavily into the bodies of these Evil Ghouls.

Just as Gu Xi estimated, fifty level 4 Evil Bone Locust, with the added benefits from Aryadovi City and Gu Xi's side, should have no problem defeating a level 8 Evil Ghoul.

Often, only two or three attacks are needed to kill an Evil Ghoul, after which the Evil Bone Locust will devour their corpses and the gastric juices they spew out.

However, Gu Xi also made a slight calculation error here.

That is, he thought that the data showing that killing a thousand Evil Ghoul would attract a BOSS meant there were a thousand Evil Ghoul here.

He never expected that it wasn't like that at all.

There are nearly two thousand Evil Ghoul here, but after one thousand Evil Ghoul are defeated, the remaining ones will merge and strengthen, becoming gigantic BOSSes.
