——————————————

During the month and a half in Ancestor City, Gu Xi learned many things in addition to copying books.

The Secondary Corpse Burst and Secondary Bone Shield have all been successfully upgraded.

The Corpse Burst is almost about to upgrade to Enhanced Corpse Burst.

Although the level of Corpse Burst has decreased a bit.

Its power has increased exponentially.

Gu Xi pointed directly at the enemy’s carriage.

Why is the opponent’s carriage so conspicuous?

Using bones directly to act as a carriage, they really underestimate the Undead Mage.

Any Undead Mage could easily torch your carriage...

Huh?

Huh huh?

Gu Xi launched the Corpse Burst three times, but the carriage pulled by a Tyrannosaurus showed no reaction.

This situation made Gu Xi feel a shock in his heart.

The thing before him was clearly bone.

As an Undead Mage, even if he was far away, he could discern whether the bone was real or fake.

Why couldn’t he use Corpse Burst?

At this moment, among the beastmen on the carriage, an older beastman with a hunched back, holding a magic staff and wrapped in black mist, stepped forward.

"Chieftain, something seems off; the one across us is an Undead Mage, not our target."

"How can it not be our target? Look at the mission checklist. Is it not the right time and place, aren’t they moving in the darkness, dragged out by us from the Dark Passage?

Everything matches the task checklist, what makes you say we picked the wrong target."

A beastman approximately 1.9 meters tall, and as corpulent as a bear, roared while swinging an intact human corpse.

The corpse was tightly wrapped in bandages, with some wooden sticks tied to it—obviously used as a Wolf Fang Club.

Though now, the corpse is golden in color, indicating it has been around for a while.

"So, let’s take them out."

"Chieftain, they’re undead, undead."

"What about undead? They’re just bone racks, easily crushed with a hammer."

"Chieftain, don’t forget why we’re here this time."

The old beastman wanted to persuade further, but unexpectedly, the Skeleton Soldiers left by Gu Xi actively dashed into the beastmen’s ranks.

This instantly stirred a hornet’s nest, as the beastmen completely disregarded the situation and started fighting against the Skeleton Soldiers with whatever weapons they had.

Just as the Beastman Chief mentioned, these beastmen were adept at battling undead; a single ax swing could easily dismantle a Skeleton Soldier.

But the Skeleton Soldiers weren’t weak.

They were also fearless.

Even when knocked away by the beastmen, the Skeleton Soldiers charged into the beastmen’s ranks, reaching out, opening mouths, and directly tearing and biting the beastmen they came into contact with.

Every attack took away a beastman’s life.

Thus, chaos erupted.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gu Xi returned to the vicinity of the Garrison Gate.

At that time, troops were continuously streaming out from Yalidov City.

As the heroes appeared on the battlefield, they didn’t even need Gu Xi’s command as they led their respective troops to various parts.

Unlike the newly summoned Skeleton Soldiers.

This time, the troops emerging were all the formal units under Gu Xi.

All undead had undergone relative enhancements, with their weapons and equipment, and the blessings on their bodies strengthened by Yalidov City, Gu Xi, and the heroes commanding them.

Additionally, with the heroes’ guidance and training.

In this world, these undead were considered elite forces.

Their organizational strength surpassed the beastmen significantly.

Gu Xi believed in battles of a thousand to a thousand, they could contend with equally strong beastmen.

In battles of ten thousand to ten thousand, they could easily defeat the beastmen here.

Thus, as the heroes attacked, Gu Xi did not intervene.

His Holy Silver Evil Coffin returned to the front of the Garrison Gate, simultaneously he beckoned to the approaching Demon Sacrifice Camp.

"Brave Fight, do you see over there? There’s a group of magic users. Although I’m unsure of what magic they know, you best handle it quickly."

Brave Fight immediately understood the meaning behind Gu Xi’s words.

He wanted to mention how he had learned a lot of magic over the past month and grasped several new magic ceremonies, ready to showcase his skills.

But upon seeing Gu Xi’s expression, Brave Fight decisively responded, "Rest assured, my lord. You guys, hurry and prepare for Mana Extraction."

After Brave Fight led his troops out, Gu Xi jumped down from the Holy Silver Evil Coffin.

The Soul Summoning Tower appeared instantly on the spot.

Gu Xi directly climbed the Soul Summoning Tower, reaching the highest point on the battlefield.

"Brother Gu, you have so many troops under you?"

Kro immediately followed, standing at the top of the Soul Summoning Tower, from where the surrounding situation was clearly visible.

With Gu Xi’s troops continuously appearing, Kro immediately felt the pressure brought by Gu Xi’s forces.

In just a few minutes, Gu Xi’s forces had reached over fifty thousand troops.

The initiative had already shifted from the beastmen to Gu Xi.

However, Gu Xi didn’t answer Kro’s question this time, as he was intently focused on the direction of the beastmen’s main force.

The opponent clearly noticed his troops launching an attack, yet showed no signs of retreat, and Gu Xi also noted two groups of a thousand-man unit near the carriage haven’t made any move.

This was clearly the main force to be introduced later in the battle.

Casual observation suggested these forces weren’t weak.

Calculating in his mind, Gu Xi raised his left hand.

"Amirka, charge the enemy’s main force; there are two thousand-man units there—pay attention and eliminate them."

Amirka was currently leading his troops while breaking through a beastman unit, feeling that this kind of battle was elevating him.

This is the perfect battlefield for him. Previous fights were merely villager skirmishes.

Now hearing Gu Xi’s command, Amirka lifted his head, immediately gazing toward the beastman’s main force direction.

Indeed, there stood two beastman thousand-man divisions in formation, even amidst the chaotic battlefront, they remained uninvolved.

Moreover, their attire clearly wasn’t typical of magic systems or healing units.

This indicates they’re elite beastmen?

I aim to fight the elite.

Amirka instantly grew excited.

"Aurora Knight Order, charge with me!"
