Chapter 113: The Enemy at the City Gates

With no enemies around, Gu Xi and Du Wushuang happily started chatting.

From Du Wushuang, Gu Xi learned many things about the Dispersed Immortal Garden.

He also learned about what happened when this world was invaded by foreign enemies.

"Let me tell you, at that time, I was out on a mission, and suddenly a strange army appeared.

This time, the enemy wasn't simple. Not only were they powerful, but their abilities were also quite bizarre. Especially those wrapped in white baboon skins—I encountered one back then and barely escaped.

When I came back and asked about it, I found out that those wrapped in white baboon skins were all leader-level, at least level 9. The fact that I managed to return alive shows my strong capabilities."

As Du Wushuang spoke, her helmet tilted up, with a clear expression of seeking praise, as if saying, "Aren't you supposed to flatter me while listening to someone brag?"

Gu Xi thought seriously for a moment, then took out two pieces of white baboon skin and calmly asked, "Are you referring to this kind?"

"Ah, talking to someone like you is really boring."

Du Wushuang was speechless. If it weren't for her helmet, Gu Xi might have seen her rolling her eyes.

Gu Xi chuckled and was about to say something when he suddenly stood straight.

"There are enemies, and two of them. What's behind us, is it important?"

When Gu Xi noticed the enemies, Du Wushuang also saw them.

She didn't have time to answer Gu Xi's question but instead focused on the suddenly appearing enemies.

Just as Gu Xi said, there were two groups of enemies suddenly rushing out from the forest ahead.

The leading figure was a headless knight, clad in black heavy armor. Since he had no head, the white baboon skin was placed right on his neck.

Riding a tall warhorse, he carried no subordinates but held a lance in one hand and a long string of human heads in the other.

As he charged out, he pointed his lance directly at Du Wushuang.

After the headless knight charged out, another ghoul leader slowly emerged from behind.

This was a dried-up old lady, followed by a large number of legged cauldrons.

As she emerged, the old lady pulled the white baboon skin on her and grinned at Gu Xi.

Before Gu Xi could say anything, different colored liquids poured out from the legged cauldrons, forming twisted slimes in front of the old lady.

"What kind of people are these?"

Gu Xi complained while pointing forward. The bone soldiers of the Bone-Cutting Camp quickly advanced, while zombies and ghosts protected Gu Xi, and the skeletal archers raised their bows, ready to launch the first wave of attacks.

Seeing Gu Xi's response, the headless knight's lance turned towards Gu Xi. It was clear that the headless knight identified Gu Xi as the commander of the undead forces and prioritized him for elimination.

At this time, although Du Wushuang knew she was far lower in level than the headless knight, she still stood out, blocking the lance.

In Du Wushuang's mind, Gu Xi, as a necromancer, had no melee capabilities, and it was up to her to take on the headless knight's challenge.
