Chapter 72: Fierce Battle with the Bone Dragon
Ding!
When the zombie's cleaver struck the bone dragon, it made a metallic clanging sound.
This startled Gu Xi. The bones of the bone dragon in the black mist had turned metallic, a defense beyond Gu Xi's imagination.
Gu Xi thought that the bone dragon's body was also misty, but unexpectedly, it had metal defense.
"Hold him off."
Gu Xi knew right away that this enemy needed to be dragged down and fought with full force.
They couldn't throw all their troops at it at once, nor could they let the bone dragon take off or unleash its ultimate moves.
Otherwise, with the troops at Gu Xi's disposal, they wouldn't be able to withstand even one attack from the bone dragon.
"Luna, have the ghosts ready. If the bone dragon shows any signs of taking off, have the ghosts bring it down."
"Okay." Luna responded immediately and went to make preparations.
At the same time, Gu Xi directed the newly acquired skeleton archers to launch a ranged attack on the bone dragon.
Gu Xi somewhat regretted not waiting a bit longer.
Now, Aridowei city could produce 500 points of negative energy daily. If he had waited a few more days, he could have converted more skeletons into skeleton archers, significantly boosting their combat power.
Thinking this, Gu Xi kept an eye on the battlefield. After Gu Xi issued new orders, the black bone dragon was pinned to the ground, unable to take off.
Even so, the black bone dragon's combat power was terrifyingly high.
A single tail swipe from the black bone dragon would kill three to four skeleton soldiers.
However, the attacks from Gu Xi's skeleton soldiers did little damage to the black bone dragon.
This worried Gu Xi about his insufficient troops.
Luckily, at this moment, Shaya also emerged from her invisible state.
She flashed to the top of the black bone dragon's head, holding a dagger in both hands, searching for a spot to strike.
Gu Xi knew Shaya had the Eye of Omniscience, which could see through enemy weaknesses. She was now looking for the bone dragon's weak point, their only chance to defeat it.
Thus, when Shaya made her move, Gu Xi and Luna quickly changed tactics from active attack to actively attracting the bone dragon's attention.
At least they needed to give Shaya a chance to find the enemy's weak point.
Their actions were successful. The bone dragon was entirely focused on Gu Xi's skeleton soldiers, ignoring Shaya above it, and focusing on the skeleton soldiers of battle squad 3.
These skeleton soldiers, wielding swords and shields, kept banging on their shields while retreating.
Their retreat was orderly, not a rout.
Three to five skeleton soldiers would engage the bone dragon, and regardless of whether they retreated or died, a new skeleton soldier would immediately fill the vacant spot.
Using this tactic, Gu Xi's skeleton soldiers managed to hold the bone dragon's attention, preventing it from noticing Shaya on its back.
Meanwhile, Luna was also holding back, not using wide-range attack methods, but using Frost Touch instead.
