Chapter 16 Melee (for further reading)

prick!
Stab again.

Go forward and stab again!
Under the command of the skull leader, the combat team 3 with the spear stabbed out the spear again and again.

Every time it stabs, it will be accurately pierced into the body of the black figure.

The number of these black figures is relatively large, and the skeletons of the battle team don't need to look at the enemy's position at all, and they can always hit one or two enemies with their spears.

Because of the size of the skeletons, their spears are all pierced in the enemy's chest. Sometimes with a little force, they will pierce through two or three enemies.

After three times, finally a black figure couldn't withstand the attack of the skeleton and fell down on the spot.

[Skeleton (summon) kills ghosts (level 2), you get 1 experience point, the combat team gets 1 experience point, and the summoned object gets 8 experience points. 】

At the moment when the sound was raised, Gu Xi shot at the place where the black figure fell.

"Secondary corpse explosion."

It was only when Gu Xi's mana fell to the position of the black figure, he heard a puff, and the image of the fallen black figure disappeared like a bubble.

Don't say that there was an explosion, even the sound was only heard by Gu Xi's attention.

This made Gu Xi quite upset, but he couldn't help it.

Gu Xi couldn't change the fact that there was no corpse after this ghostly shadow was killed.

In desperation, Gu Xi had no choice but to change his plan. His outstretched hand changed from pointing outward to inward.

Just then, another notification sounded.

[Skeleton (summon) kills ghosts (level 2), you get 1 experience point, the combat team gets 1 experience point, and the summoned object gets 11 experience points. 】

Gu Xi grabbed some soul fragments by pulling inward.

With a soul, without a body?
What a strange situation.

Gu Xi didn't think about it, but focused on the battle ahead.

Extracting souls is the most basic skill of all necromancers. It doesn't need to consume mana, as long as there are enemies dead, it can be done easily.

Anyway, the corpse explosion can't be used now, and Gu Xi didn't release the Soul Tower to help extract souls from the dead city. Now extracting some souls as materials for subsequent spellcasting can be regarded as a job when you are idle.

After all, Gu Xi doesn't know what kind of enemies will be in the next two waves, he always has something in his hand.

Either enough mana, enough souls, or enough skeletons.

When Gu Xi was withdrawing his soul, many black shadows died under the spears of the skeletons, but at this time more and more black ghosts squeezed in from nearby, and they had already smashed through the roadblocks randomly arranged by the skeletons , you can even hit the skeletons of Combat Squad 3.

"Battle team 4 stepped forward to block, and battle team 1 went around to the back. The stragglers and skeletons took action. A circle of roadblocks is not enough. Won't you set up more roadblocks?"

Looking at the situation in front of him, Gu Xi couldn't help giving orders again.

Even things like extracting souls had to stop.

Gu Xi found that the boss-level undead were still a bit stupid, and their brains were only a little stronger than ordinary skeletons. Yes, but they were relatively limited.

If there is no instruction from Gu Xi, they will sometimes stop in place and not know what they are going to do.

At this time, Gu Xi had to arrange the enemy from the perspective of a commander, and even had to think clearly about when to attack and when to retreat.

Otherwise, these undead will have a situation where one army is working hard in front, and the rest of the troops are watching the excitement behind.

It would be better if Gu Xi's undead were stronger.

But most of these undead are level 0 skeletons, not even skeleton soldiers.

All they faced were phantoms around level 2. It was fine if they didn't make a move. As long as they made a move, the level 0 skeletons were no match for them at all.

This can be seen from the top of the battle team 4.

Combat Team 3 was far away and because of the roadblocks, they did not have a direct conflict with Phantom.

But Combat Squad 4 is different. They use swords and shields, and frontal defense is their fighting method. The weapons they hold prevent them from attacking from a distance.

So Combat Squad 4 was hit by Phantom right away.

Ten skeletons were killed immediately on the spot.

When these skeletons died in battle, Gu Xi also made a move.

"Secondary Corpse Explosion!"

Gu Xi was referring to the position where the skeleton fell. In the absence of a corpse, the corpse of the undead can also be used to explode.

The phantom shadows never expected that Gu Xi would use his men as bombs, and they were still surging forward.

Then four bangs were heard.

Four of the skeletons who died in battle exploded on the spot, and the shock wave of the explosion knocked away the bone fragments of the skeletons, which rotated and cut into the group of ghostly shadows.

Each piece of bone flew at least 30 meters away, and the explosion of the four skeletons killed more than [-] Phantoms on the spot.

[Kill the shadow (level 2), get 45 experience points. 】

[Kill the shadow (level 2), get 33 experience points. 】

[Kill the shadow (level 2), get 36 experience points. 】

【…】

But at this moment, Gu Xi had a puzzled look on his face.

"Why only four times? I just used the secondary corpse explosion five times. Is it possible that the secondary corpse explosion may fail?"

Gu Xi, with a puzzled face, considered the situation just now.

And at this time, Combat Team 1 had already circled behind the Phantoms, and slashed at the Phantoms from behind with a hatchet and kekrik.

This time, the ghostly shadow obviously has its own consciousness.

Although they were attracted, they were no longer the kind of fools who rarely knew how to fight back after being beaten.

When attacked, they will also turn around and fight back.

But what they met was Gu Xi's earliest combat team.

This combat team has experienced many battles, and many of their skeletons have been upgraded.

At the same time, their weapons have undergone more than two changes, and now their combat effectiveness is considered to be the strongest in Gu Xi's combat team.

Now they don't think about their own safety at all, but rush into the black shadow and hack people.

Their indiscriminate killings are also quite useful, their movements are quite fast, often with one ax down, and then a backhand knife, the enemy's life is almost the same.

If the speed was faster, the black phantom would not even have a chance to fight back.

For a while, the progress of the black phantom also stopped, and their already chaotic team became even more chaotic.

Such an opportunity was seized by Combat Team 3. They held up their spears and stabbed forward heavily, killing another batch of black phantoms.

But at this moment, the leader in the black shadow with a spear made of arms finally made a move.
