Before the Earth Demon Cave

After resting for three hours, the Soul Gathering Ground, having received the news, sent people to take over the Scale Shard Mine.

The person who came to take over accepted everything here naturally, without asking why there were no more Shattered Scale Stone outside the Mine.

After completing the handover, Gu Xi quickly led his troops away.

As for what happened in the Scale Shard Mine, they simply stopped paying attention to it.

There were no more tasks along the way, and Gu Xi's journey was quite smooth.

They soon arrived at the Earth Demon Cave, their destination.

After arriving here, Gu Xi understood why the Soul Gathering Ground regarded this place as an important mission.

About fifty miles outside the Earth Demon Cave, there were already numerous monster camps.

These monsters stood tall, over two meters in height, their color as withered and yellow as a large tree.

Their bodies were round and plump, but their arms were all muscle, and some even had finely ground bones stuck into their skin as decoration.

Beneath the Bone Spike, they grew into grotesque, twisted creatures with one to three sharp horns on their heads, like those of goats, sharp and hard.

They wore clothes made of Animal Skin, rough and tough, and carried weapons such as forks or broadswords. Their bloodthirsty aura was terrifying.

Before them lay a corpse, cut into large and small pieces of flesh.

It seems that, just as the Soul Gathering Ground said, these creatures feed on spirits.

As soon as Gu Xi and his troops appeared, before they even got close to their camp, the Demon Beast stood up with their weapons.

"Bone, there are bones to eat."

"It's meat!"

"You dare come here? You're asking for death!"

What these monsters did next left Gu Xi completely dumbfounded.

As soon as the demon got up, Gu Xi immediately began to set up his battlefield.

This time, Gu Xi will naturally use the same strategy as when he Scale Shard Mine.

The three City Gate are arranged in a row, with the Summoning Tower placed between the Steel City Gate and the Troop Stockade City Gate, and the Yong Dou located in Main City Gate.

Several Hero led their troops to set up positions in front of several City Gate, while Gu Xi stood on the Summoning Tower with Grand Princess Anna.

But Gu Xi never expected that even after he had made all the arrangements, the demons still hadn't charged over.

Upon closer inspection, Gu Xi discovered that when the demon got up, it immediately dismantled the tent and draped the tent and the iron pot containing soup inside over its body like equipment.

This situation left Gu Xi speechless.

What's going on with them? Are they at war or moving house?

However, these monsters did not think there was anything wrong with their actions. With their folding and manipulation, the tent was like a Leather Armor patched with various colors, covering them layer by layer.

The large pots they used for cooking were replaced by Helmet or Heart Guard Mirror.

It can be said that with just this one move, their defensive capabilities more than doubled.

After equipping themselves, the monsters began to rush towards Gu Xi's location.

Seeing this situation, Gu Xi quickly considered how to deal with it.

This is clearly the kind of unit with extremely strong defense and obvious high vitality.

This kind of enemy is not easy to defeat.

"Yong Dou, try Mana Drain. They move slowly. After Mana Drain, don't use Slow Spell, just use Blood Loss Curse."

Although he didn't know what Gu Xi was thinking, Yong Dou was still quite obedient.

Whether he can continue his research in Ritual Magic depends on Gu Xi's arrangements.

Meanwhile, Gu Xi was not idle either. He waved his hand, and the Death Sorcerer Summoning was activated, and ten Death Wizard appeared under the Summoning Tower.

"Grand Princess Anna, have all the red dragons retreat into the Aryadovi City."

Grand Princess Anna glanced at the excited red and Black Dragon dragons in the sky and understood Gu Xi's idea. Under her command, all the red dragons retreated through the Main City Gate.

The Black Dragon was still circling in the sky.

When the red dragon returned to its place, Yong Dou had already completed the ritual of Mana Drain.

The ritual was executed flawlessly, its scope extending directly to the opposite camp. Within this area, all enemy mana was drained.

However, this time the Mana Drain was not very effective.

Scattered magical energy flew towards the altar where the ceremony was being held. Gu Xi estimated that this time, he probably wouldn't even get 100 points of magical energy.

It seems that this kind of monster is a being without magical power.

It seems we shouldn't have any expectations of such a large monster.

As Gu Xi pondered this, he waved his hand again.

Another Death Sorcerer Summoning was activated, summoning ten Death Wizards.

At this moment, Yong Dou also noticed Gu Xi's actions and looked in Gu Xi's direction with some curiosity.

"Everyone, follow my rhythm and prepare to use Wave of Death!"

Upon hearing Gu Xi's words, the Death Wizard all raised their short staffs and chanted incantations along with Gu Xi.

When Gu Xi released the Wave of Death, he clearly felt that his Wave of Death this time was no match for Yong Dou's Ritual Magic.

The Wave of Death attack range can only reach a distance of about Domi Steel City Gate.

Unlike Yong Dou who can ignore the entire battlefield and cast spells thousands of meters away, a warrior cannot.

There's nothing Gu Xi can do about this.

At this moment, Gu Xi had an idea in his mind: why not study some Ritual Magic himself?

After all, his level of Ritual Magic was quite high.

Moreover, he has an advantage over Yong Dou.

Because the minions he uses to serve Ritual Magic can be Skeleton Mage Death Wizard.

These Death Wizard are far more powerful than Skeleton Mage.

Most importantly, this ritual can be said to be a universal principle.

Once Gu Xi masters the Wave of Death, he can easily master the Ritual Magic of other spells.

It's believed that before long, Gu Xi will also be able to use Undead Spell in major battles.

For now, Gu Xi simply keeps this idea in mind.

Now he's more concerned with how to release the Wave of Death.

Because it was the first experiment, the range of the Wave of Death was not large, and it did not harm the monsters that had not yet reached the City Gate.

Therefore, Gu Xi was not entirely sure whether the Wave of Death had any effect on these monsters.

He thought for a moment, then decisively commanded, "Death Wizard, move forward to the front of the Steel City Gate, follow my rhythm, and use Wave of Death again."

Under Gu Xi's command, the Death Wizard moved forward swiftly.

Gu Xi also took this opportunity to prepare the Wave of Death again.

This time the effect was very good, because with the Death Wizard acting as a relay, this wave of Wave of Death was pushed back to a position about 700 Domi Steel City Gate.
