Chapter 865 - 863: Battle of the Tail King
"We meet again!"
Gu Xi, not caring about the situation behind him, quickly arrived at the depths of the underground and once again saw Tail King Spore Cultist Charlie.
However, this time facing Spore Cultist Charlie, Gu Xi no longer had the feeling of helplessness he had before.
The enemy before him, in Gu Xi’s eyes now, was no longer an undefeatable existence.
After entering the depths underground and occupying a rather good position, Gu Xi immediately deployed the Steel City Gate and the Garrison Gate.
He began mobilizing his main forces.
At the same time, the Soul Summoning Tower was also deployed, and Gu Xi directly stepped onto it.
Surrounded by roots, Spore Cultist Charlie also noticed Gu Xi’s actions.
However, he had no intention of acting at the moment; he was absorbing information from the apple trees on the ground.
Last time Gu Xi came to fight Spore Cultist Charlie, he already knew about the enemy’s combat methods.
His level was quite high, reaching Level 12, with strong defense, and ten thousand life points; a normal attack on him would only deduct 1 point.
At the same time, he could use Root Attack, and the apple trees growing on apple roots could turn into small monsters to fight.
To kill him, either a concentrated fire attack like Ana and the British Leader did before to deal massive damage at once,
or opening dual battles, holding off Spore Cultist Charlie on one side while dealing with the small monsters, slowly wearing him down.
Both combat methods were viable for Gu Xi.
But for Gu Xi, the most suitable approach was dual battles.
After all, Gu Xi had enough troops, and he only needed to deploy a few core powerhouses to hold the line.
The continuously falling various small monsters were, for Gu Xi, a large source of population and troops.
Gu Xi came here not to grind dungeons, but to replenish troops.
Therefore, Gu Xi immediately set up two city gates and deployed the Soul Summoning Tower.
Then, Gu Xi’s core main force, Black Spear Camp, and Demon Sacrifice Tower quickly appeared.
Alongside them from the city gates were Gu Xi’s Ghost Dragons, Bone Dragons, Ghost Dragons, and so on.
Even Gu Xi’s two Level 19 Double-headed Bone Dragon and that Zombie appeared on the battlefield.
The Hellhounds above Level 20 were at the Steel City Gate, ready to dash out immediately if anything went wrong.
Meanwhile, all of Gu Xi’s Skeleton Shooters were mobilized.
These Skeleton Shooters were not aimed at the possibly forthcoming small monsters but at Spore Cultist Charlie above.
Gu Xi had over ten thousand Skeleton Shooters, and if any of them could hit once, Spore Cultist Charlie would be killed instantly.
Standing in front were the forces of Kaga and Die Bone, Gu Xi’s most powerful defensive counterattack units, now being the main force against the enemy’s small monsters.
Black Spear Camp followed behind them, primarily responsible for eliminating small monsters.
In addition, there were plenty of Skeletons, Zombies, and Ghosts.
They were led by various Undead Bosses and responsible for the chaos on the battlefield.
Even the Ghost Squad was deployed by Gu Xi, ready to snatch anything they could from the battlefield at any moment.
Looking back at the brave fight in the Demon Sacrifice Camp, Gu Xi decisively asked.
"Ready?"
"Ready, everyone is on the move, Mana Extraction is ready, Slowdown Skill is queued."
On the way here, the brave fight had already communicated everything with Gu Xi.
Upon arrival, they would first extract all mana from Spore Cultist Charlie.
Although Spore Cultist Charlie was clearly not a magic system Boss, Gu Xi simply disliked the enemy having too much mana.
Last time he checked Spore Cultist Charlie’s attributes, it was because he extracted some mana from the enemy.
Now, Gu Xi’s task was simpler, letting the brave fight completely deplete Spore Cultist Charlie’s mana.
For this task, the brave fight naturally agreed right away.
In the eyes of the brave fight, the ritual of extracting mana was already very mature.
It didn’t even require his direct action; a batch of Skeleton Mages would suffice.
Seeing the brave fight agree, Gu Xi still added an extra reminder.
"Be careful during extraction, replenish magic afterward, and don’t let the enemy regain mana."
"My lord, rest assured, with me, there won’t be any issues."
The brave fight confidently replied.
Gu Xi felt relieved upon hearing this.
He then turned to glance at his subordinates; except for Robbie, who was still blocked outside, and Almika, who was unsuitable for this battle, most of his idle heroes were present.
Even Lewis, who hadn’t been used much, was standing by, patrolling with a batch of troops, ready to engage in battle at any moment.
Seeing the preparations at hand, Gu Xi nodded.
"Brave fight, begin!"
With a command from Gu Xi, the brave fight swiftly directed the Demon Sacrifice Camp to unleash a Mana Extraction.
In the next instant, Spore Cultist Charlie, still wrapped in roots, widened his eyes in shock.
The brave fight and the Skeleton Mages of the Demon Sacrifice Camp directly depleted Spore Cultist Charlie’s mana.
Spore Cultist Charlie originally wanted to play tough briefly.
But upon realizing his mana was gone, he couldn’t care less, roots and red lines quickly shot out, while numerous apple buds bloomed, dropping various fruits.
These fruits fell into the underground mud, swiftly turning pink and forming small monsters with bone fragments on their bodies, appearing in the mud.
If the last time Gu Xi saw these small monsters, he still found them somewhat strange,
now, upon looking again, Gu Xi couldn’t help but shake his head.
These small monsters lacked both numbers and strength.
They might not even break through the front lines of Kaga and Die Bone, not to mention the prepared pocket array behind.
Gu Xi kept his eyes on everything in front of him, holding the Illusion Magic Wand, occasionally casting some beneficial magic.
Currently, Gu Xi wasn’t much concerned with what magic was being cast.
In his eyes, his forces easily breached the mud, constantly slaying the small monsters just climbing up.
Every time they killed a batch of small monsters, Gu Xi would immediately perform a summoning, transforming the slain small monsters into his troops, letting them join the battle.
As for whether they had weapons or not, Gu Xi didn’t care.
After completing the summoning, these new undead would immediately rush at the saplings and such emerging from the mud, making the battlefield increasingly chaotic.
And at this time, Spore Cultist Charlie’s Root Attack also began to descend from the sky.
