Chapter 186: Extreme Battle
Kill!
When the undead troops holding long spears clashed with half of the Wight Knights, the other half of the Wight Knights had already charged.
However, Gu Xi did not arrange any troops on this side; behind him were only Skeleton Archers and Skeleton Mages.
Deadly Vines!
Deadly Vines!
...
As the Wight Knights were about to charge, Gu Xi cast ten consecutive Deadly Vines.
Five barriers composed of tentacles and arms appeared in front of these Wight Knights.
These barriers prevented the Wight Knights from gaining speed.
As long as the Wight Knights lacked speed, the five hundred Skeleton Mages behind Gu Xi had a role to play.
They didn't need Gu Xi's orders; they knew what to do. Waves of fireballs, ice arrows, lightning bolts, and poison bombs rained down on the Wight Knights.
Although the Wight Knights had high defense, their magic resistance was not strong.
Each wave of magical attacks hit them hard.
The Wight Knights at the front were blown into the sky, unable to withstand even the first wave.
The Wight Knights behind also suffered varying degrees of damage.
In this situation, the Wight Knights were enraged. The leading Wight Knight pointed his spear.
"Strong Charge!"
After shouting this, a layer of golden light appeared on all the Wight Knights, rendering Gu Xi's barriers ineffective against them.
Their charging speed instantly increased, and they were about to crash into Gu Xi.
At this moment, the Death Incarnate, which had been lying on the city gate, turned into black mist and crashed into the Wight Knights from the side.
Without the Crystal Storm, the Death Incarnate's black mist wasn't very powerful.
But its body was the best weapon, knocking down many Wight Knights at once.
The Wight Knights' hard-earned charge was disrupted again.
The Death Incarnate didn't stop but turned and bit the head Wight Knight.
This head Wight Knight was still protected by the golden light, so the Death Incarnate's bite wasn't very effective, but it dragged the head Wight Knight into the air.
Without the leader's support, the other Wight Knights reverted to their original state.
At this moment, they were knocked to the ground again by the Death Incarnate, and the Skeleton Mages quickly unleashed their attacks on these Wight Knights.
Although the Skeleton Mages' levels were not high, their attacks were pure magic.
Each magical attack was powerful, and the spells could synergize and combine.
This wave of attacks killed another batch of Wight Knights.
Just as Gu Xi was about to control the situation, an unexpected event occurred across the pit.
A Wight Swordsman with two heads was swiftly cutting through the ghosts with a red and a blue long sword.
One face was mechanical with a clown's makeup, and the other was rotting with makeup.
His body was wrapped in white baboon skin, which he seemed to use as armor.
He wielded two long swords, one emitting fire and the other ice.
Both types of power could cause significant damage to the ghosts.
Several ghosts were caught off guard and killed by this Wight Swordsman.
But the ghosts were not fools. They quickly scattered and charged at other Wights.
After all, the enemy was not just this one; if they couldn't beat him, they could still deal with other Wights.
The two-headed Wight was furious, but as the ghosts expected, he could kill many when surrounded, but if the ghosts ran, he could only deal with one at a time.
The two-headed Wight couldn't chase all the ghosts and kill them one by one.
He could only chase one ghost, killing those attacking other Wights.
Fighting like this, he moved from the main Wight forces to the scattered troops.
At this moment, the remaining undead troops of Gu Xi had circled the pit and charged at the scattered Wights.
This time they followed the two leaders of the Bone-Splitting Battalion.
Each attack was crazily fierce. Unlike the spear-wielding undead behind the battle squad, their goal was simpler: see an enemy, attack the enemy.
One would fall, either the enemy or themselves.
The scattered Wights were not well-coordinated, and facing the frontal assault led by the Bone-Splitting Battalion, the battlefield became chaotic.
If not for many of Gu Xi's troops being low-level skeletons, this charge might have wiped out most enemies.
Even so, the battle between the undead and the Wights was evenly matched.
But then the two-headed Wight charged over.
Seeing such an enemy, the two skeleton leaders of the Bone-Splitting Battalion raised their swords and knives and charged.
A sword and a knife heavily struck the two heads of the two-headed Wight.
The Wight leader was already annoyed for not killing enough ghosts, and seeing someone come to die, he wielded his swords and started fighting.
This showed the two-headed Wight's strength.
The two-headed Wight fought the two skeleton leaders alone with ease. One sword was wide and open, the other as fine as rain, and the two styles complemented each other perfectly.
Most importantly, his level far exceeded that of the two skeleton leaders. The more he fought, the more smoothly and excitedly he fought.
Without the skeleton leaders' command, the battle between the undead and the scattered Wights tipped again.
The scattered Wights slowly gained the upper hand.
At this moment, Gu Xi also noticed the situation. He glanced at battle squad one and quickly ordered.
"Battle Squad 1, ignore those knights and charge over."
Gu Xi gave this order because less than twenty Wight Knights remained near battle squad one, a number he could manage.
But more forces were needed against the scattered Wights.
Gu Xi had to temporarily redirect battle squad one.
After giving the order, Gu Xi raised his Coldwind Staff, preparing to cast a summoning spell when a buzzing sound came from the city gate.
Gu Xi looked back in surprise and saw fifteen gargoyles leading a swarm of insects like a dark cloud.
What is this?
