Breath of the Dead

After resting on the spot for three hours, the Soul Gathering Ground received the news and sent people to take over the scale-crushing mine.

The person who came to take over took over everything here naturally, without asking at all why there was no broken scale stone outside the mine.

After completing the handover, Gu Xi quickly left with his troops.

As for the matter behind the Broken Scale Mine, I just stopped caring about it.

There were no more side missions next, and Gu Xi's journey was quite smooth.

Soon they arrived outside this time's target, the Devil's Cave.

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

There are already a large number of monster camps about fifty miles outside the Demon Cave.

These monsters stood tall, more than two meters tall, and were as yellow as big trees.

Their bodies are chubby, but their arms are full of muscles. Some even have finely ground bones embedded in their skin as decoration.

Under the bone spurs, each of them had a ferocious appearance, twisted and deformed, with one to three sharp horns growing on their heads, like goat's horns, sharp and hard.

They were wearing clothes made of animal skins, which were rough and hard, and they were holding weapons such as double forks or broadswords in their hands. Their bloodthirsty aura made people tremble with fear.

In front of them was a corpse that had been cut into large and small pieces of meat.

It seems that just as the Soul Gathering Site said, these guys feed on Yin spirits.

As soon as Gu Xi showed up with his troops, before they even got close to their camp, these monsters stood up with weapons in hand.

"Bone, if you have bones, eat them."

"It's meat!"

"If you dare to come here, you are seeking death!"

What these monsters did next made Gu Xi stunned.

When the monster got up, Gu Xi immediately began to arrange his battlefield.

This time, Gu Xi's battlefield was naturally based on the plan he had used when breaking the scale mine cave.

The three city gates are lined up in a row, the soul-summoning tower is placed between the steel city gate and the garrison city gate, and Yongdou is located in front of the main city gate.

Several heroes and troops were deployed in front of several city gates, but Gu Xi still took Princess Anna to stand on the soul-calling tower.

But Gu Xi never expected that he had already made arrangements and those monsters hadn't charged over yet.

Taking a closer look, Gu Xi found that when the monster got up, he immediately dismantled the tent and hung the tent and the iron pot with soup inside like equipment.

This situation left Gu Xi quite speechless.

What is going on with them? Are they fighting or moving?

However, these monsters did not think there was anything wrong with their behavior. Under their folding and handling, the tent was like a layer of leather armor with patches of various colors, covering their bodies layer after layer.

And the cauldrons they used to cook things turned into helmets or goggles.

It can be said that in just one move, their defense power more than tripled.

After completing the equipment, these monsters began to rush towards Gu Xi's location.

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

This kind of troops is obviously the kind of troops with super strong defense and obviously strong vitality.

This kind of enemy is difficult to fight.

"Yongdou, try mana extraction. Their movement speed is slow. After mana extraction, you don't need to use the slow spell, just use the blood loss curse."

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

Whether he can continue his research in ritual magic depends on Gu Xi's arrangements.

At this time, Gu Xi was not idle either. He waved his hand and summoned the dead witches, and ten necromancers appeared under the soul-calling tower.

"Princess Anna, ask all the red dragons to retreat to Alidovi City."

Princess Anna glanced at the excited red and black dragons in the sky and understood Gu Xi's thoughts. Under her order, all the red dragons retreated along the main city gate.

The black dragon is still hovering in the sky.

When the red dragon returned to his position, Yuu Dou had also completed the ritual of mana extraction.

This time the ceremony was completed quite well, and the range fell directly into the opposite camp. As long as they were within this range, all the enemy's mana was drained away.

But this time the mana extraction effect is not very good.

Bits and pieces of mana flew toward the altar where the ceremony was being performed. Gu Xi estimated that he might not have gotten even 100 points of mana this time.

It seems that this kind of monster has no magic power.

It seems that one should not have any expectations for such a big monster.

Gu Xi waved his hand again while thinking about it.

Another call of necromancers was launched, and ten necromancers were summoned.

At this time, Yongdou also noticed Gu Xi's actions, and he looked in Gu Xi's direction curiously.

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

After listening to Gu Xi's words, the necromancers all raised their short staffs and recited the spell along with Gu Xi.

When releasing the death ripple, Gu Xi clearly felt that his death ripple this time was incomparable to Yongdou's ritual magic.

The attack range of the death ripple can reach up to more than 100 meters outside the steel city gate.

It's not like Yuu Dou, who can directly ignore the entire battlefield and cast spells thousands of meters away.

There was nothing Gu Xi could do about it.

At this time, Gu Xi already had an idea in his mind, how about he also study some ritual magic.

After all, my level of ritual magic is quite high.

And he has an advantage over Yuu Dou.

Because the subordinates he uses to serve ritual magic do not need to use the unmatched skeleton mage, but directly use the necromancer.

The abilities of these necromancers are much stronger than those of skeleton mages.

The most important thing is that this kind of ritual can be said to be universal.

As long as Gu Xi masters the Death Ripple, he can successfully master the ritual magic of other spells.

I believe it won't be long before Gu Xi can also use necromancy in a big battle.

Now, Gu Xi just keeps this idea in his mind.

Now he is more concerned about how he can release the death ripples.

Because of the first experiment, the scope of the death ripple was not large and it did not hurt the monsters that had not yet rushed to the city gate.

So Gu Xi was not sure whether the death ripple would have any effect on these monsters.

He thought for a while and ordered decisively: "The Necromancer moves forward and goes to the steel city gate. Follow my rhythm and use the Death Ripple again."

Under Gu Xi's order, the necromancers moved forward quickly.

And Gu Xi also took this opportunity to prepare for the death ripple again.

The effect this time was very good. Because of the Necromancer's transfer, this wave of death ripples pushed out about 700 meters outside the Iron City Gate.
