Undead Mage from a Cell-Chapter 498 - 496: Red Knight! Charge!
It’s a new month, asking for subscriptions, recommendations, monthly tickets, and all kinds of support, charge!
--------------------
Gu Xi’s preparation was not wrong, as Calimduo and Naviduo started fighting, the unprepared Calimduo was directly broken through by Naviduo’s Skeleton Giant Beasts.
The originally planned three-on-one, or even four-on-one battle, had now turned into a chaotic two-on-one or even one-on-one fight.
In such a situation, Naviduo stood his ground.
He stood on top of a giant skeleton, continuously using spells to enhance various attack effects for his underlings, the Skeleton Giant Beasts.
These Skeleton Giant Beasts were clearly Naviduo’s research products; he understood their traits very well.
When he encountered certain situations, he could even instruct the Skeleton Giant Beasts on how to attack, thereby influencing the battle’s outcome.
As a result, the situation became uncontrollable.
And with so many massive undead fighting, it was naturally impossible for the battles to remain only at Naviduo’s burial ground.
A few Skeleton Giant Beasts, with just a few moves, had already drawn the battle over to the nearby mountain ridges.
Gu Xi was actually not far from the burial ground, located about one and a half mountain ridges away.
Without considering the mountain ridges, this was about seven to eight kilometers away.
This location was just right for seeing the battle over there, yet without being affected.
Now these Skeleton Giant Beasts surged out, greatly expanding the scope of the battle.
The location where Gu Xi and his team were standing naturally also became an attack focus for the Skeleton Giant Beasts.
A Skeleton Giant Beast with a turtle shell and rhinoceros horn was charging toward Gu Xi’s direction.
As it charged over, it happened to see the array of heads placed in front of the city gate by Gu Xi.
These were all heads of Naviduo’s subordinates.
The moment the Skeleton Giant Beast saw its companions’ heads here, its eyes flashed red flames. It then lowered its head and charged towards the main city gate like a heavy tank.
Seeing the Skeleton Giant Beast charge, Gu Xi, who was sitting on the city gate tower, disdainfully remarked.
"What use is it to come with one, skeleton..."
Before Gu Xi finished his words, Amirka decisively issued a command.
"Red Knights, charge!"
With this shout from Amirka, four Red Knights wielding blood-dripping scythes rushed out from the city gate.
Amirka charged ahead of the Red Knights.
Behind them followed a group of black heavy armored soldiers wielding war axes and wearing horned helmets; these were the Gladiatorial Black Guard who had just joined Amirka’s squad.
Seeing them charge out like this, Gu Xi was also somewhat surprised.
Just four Red Knights directly initiated a charge? Are these knights free of cost?
Before Gu Xi could say anything, the four Red Knights had already reached the front of the Skeleton Giant Beast, and their scythes chopped directly onto the turtle shell of the Skeleton Giant Beast.
With this blow, the sturdy turtle shell was cut deeply, and then the four Red Knights spread out in four directions at once.
With their charge, the scythes sliced huge wounds in the turtle shell, almost breaking the skeleton beast’s bones.
At this time, Amirka also reached the forefront of the Skeleton Giant Beast.
Unlike Gu Xi, who was used to casting spells from the rear, Amirka preferred close combat, naturally possessing the ability to command troops on the battlefield.
When the Skeleton Giant Beast was caught by the Red Knights, he stabbed his spear directly into the rhino horn of the Skeleton Giant Beast, forcing it forward.
Then the Gladiatorial Black Guard charged out, continuously hacking at the skeleton beast’s bones with war axes.
With each strike, a part of the Skeleton Giant Beast’s body was lost.
Before long, the Skeleton Giant Beast was forcibly chopped down to the ground.
At this time, Amirka seemed to have discovered something, he turned to look at Gu Xi.
Gu Xi happened to hear the prompt sound ringing out.
[Amirka (Hero) led the team to kill Skeleton Giant Beast (Level 11), gaining 1011 experience points, Amirka’s troops gain 31 experience points...]
Hearing this prompt and seeing Amirka’s action, Gu Xi understood that Amirka had gained something on the battlefield and was asking for Gu Xi’s opinion.
"The hero leads, keeps 40% for personal use, hands in 60%."
Without even thinking, Gu Xi immediately said, "Green-quality items are handed in for redistribution; items below white quality are distributed according to the proportion."
This proportion was actually set by Gu Xi from the start.
Ever since launching the attack on Yalidu City, Gu Xi had the habit of giving benefits to his subordinate troops.
Initially, he would directly allocate more than half of the loot to the combat squad composed by his leaders.
Later as Gu Xi stabilized, the proportion remained at 30% to 70%.
The leaders and soldiers took 30%, while the remaining 70% was all returned to Yalidu City for redistribution.
With the presence of heroes, the heroes could get a little more, with a distribution ratio reaching 40%.
Gu Xi was even planning that once they had leader-level assets, the rewards earned by the leaders in battle could be split in half.
Amirka was one of the main heroes under Gu Xi and had been with him for some time.
He already knew Gu Xi’s distribution ratio, thus when he turned back, he must have found something valuable.
That was why Gu Xi made that remark.
Green items are handed in, white items are distributed.
Once Gu Xi finished speaking, Amirka jumped off his war horse and approached the Skeleton Giant Beast’s corpse, reaching to forcefully pull out from around the beast’s rhino horn. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
The extracted rhino horn was torn from the Skeleton Giant Beast’s forehead.
Then Amirka tossed it outward, causing a Skeleton Rhino to appear before him.
Only then did Gu Xi understand why Amirka had looked at him.
It turned out he had found a white-quality mount.
Although it’s a white-quality item, mounts are relatively rare.
Among Gu Xi’s heroes, none had a mount.
The warhorse Amirka was riding earlier was just borrowed from the Red Knights.
Other than participating in charges, it was not much use.
Finding a mount now was a decent gain for Amirka.
Gu Xi understood this point and thus did not interfere with Amirka.
Seeing Gu Xi’s reaction, Amirka knew Gu Xi approved the ownership of this mount.
So he promptly mounted the Skeleton Rhino.
Then, riding the Skeleton Rhino, he ran around the battlefield and returned with his troops to the city gate.
Meanwhile, the battle outside would be handled by the undead following up.
He still needed to keep an eye on the battle happening with Naviduo.
At this time, Gu Xi also noticed the fight had already begun between Naviduo and Calimduo.
Though his authority was suppressed, Naviduo’s abilities still far exceeded Calimduo’s by a large margin.
Due to their similar strengths, the two sides were evenly matched.
Their attack range continued expanding, so much so that Gu Xi frowned, contemplating retreating further to continue observing.
