When Gu Xi mentioned this, the group of Thieves gathered around the sand table all froze.
They realized that there hadn’t been any updates from the Bone Dragon side for a while.
This is illogical.
After all, the Bone Dragon is where Gu Xi’s forces are currently fighting, and logically, there should be regular reports about the battle situation.
This is very irrational.
Even Gu Xi, who just spoke, realized something was amiss.
Where is his Bone Dragon?
There’s no reason for his Bone Dragon to just disappear like this.
"Investigate, and also instruct the frontal troops to increase their speed."
At this moment, the Lord of Three Lions suddenly spoke.
"My lord, at this moment, we should not be hasty."
Gu Xi glanced at the Lord of Three Lions, who spoke calmly.
"My lord, we have already lost contact with the Bone Dragon for at least fifteen minutes.
Anything could have happened during this time.
In such a situation, sending all the troops in is only adding fuel to the fire.
We should stabilize our pace to avoid falling into the enemy’s trap."
Upon hearing these words, Gu Xi was no longer as anxious.
Gu Xi didn’t ask what to do if the Bone Dragon Corps was gone.
After all, if the Bone Dragon Corps is destroyed, they can be replenished at the Eternal Enslavement Altar.
The reason Gu Xi was so tense earlier hearing about the Bone Dragon Corps’ troubles was largely due to not having another Flying Team to replace the Bone Dragon.
Without a main Flying Team, Gu Xi feared he might encounter some difficulties.
But now Gu Xi wasn’t thinking that way.
At this moment, Gu Xi’s thought was that the Bone Dragon, functioning as the Flying Team, wasn’t responding, and the Scouts and Owls sent out had no updates.
Could the enemy have a powerful Flying Team?
Actually, at this time, the Bone Dragon Corps had not been wiped out.
Nicki didn’t have that many Flying Teams; they merely took the opportunity when the Bone Dragon Corps was without a Commander to lead them in a certain direction by sacrificing their forces.
As for the Scouts and Owls Gu Xi dispatched, they were indeed shot down by them.
The aim was to reduce communications between Gu Xi and the Bone Dragon.
To make Gu Xi think the Bone Dragon had been captured.
If Gu Xi became anxious and sent other troops to rescue the Bone Dragon,
that would play right into their hands.
If Gu Xi didn’t dispatch troops, they wouldn’t mind either.
In Nicki’s view, as long as their encirclement formed, Gu Xi was doomed.
They lured the Bone Dragon out to ensure Gu Xi had no Flying Team to employ.
Whether Gu Xi noticed or sent troops wasn’t really important to them.
The profession of Killing General is this confident in strategic operations.
When the battle starts, all fortune will favor him.
Even if there are some adverse factors, as long as the fight continues, all adverse factors will turn beneficial.
Just like this time, wasn’t the Bone Dragon lured away in such a manner?
At this moment, Gu Xi was unaware of these.
Instinctively, he wanted to enhance something for the Bone Dragon.
The Bone Dragon, lacking a Boss or Hero, received fewer attribute boosts naturally.
If it was besieged now, who knows how much it would suffer.
Definitely, some enhancements for the Bone Dragon were necessary now.
Just in time to utilize the recently learned Battlefield Misfortune.
Turning to glance at the Undead Corps nearby, Gu Xi decisively commanded.
"Order all Undead Corps to heed my command and launch a Battle Cry in five minutes."
After issuing this command, Gu Xi’s face turned slightly red.
What is a Battle Cry?
It’s what Amirka and the Aurora Knight Order shout before launching an attack.
But Gu Xi usually dislikes this; he feels that having his Undead shout one or two lines before attacking is too cringe-worthy.
He’s not willing to do such slogan chanting.
Moreover, most of the Undead are mute.
Having them shout might be less effective than letting them act silently.
But Battlefield Misfortune’s activation condition demands this.
Either engage directly on the front battlefield or shout a slogan.
In any case, there needs to be evidence of their presence on the battlefield.
This point isn’t as convenient as Gu Xi’s Double Death.
With Double Death, as long as Gu Xi is recognized in the current battle, all slain enemies count as his kills.
Currently, Gu Xi isn’t sure of the enemy’s location.
Direct engagement in battle isn’t feasible, so to activate Battlefield Misfortune, Gu Xi can only have his troops shout once.
Once Gu Xi issued the command, Nicki on the other side felt noticeably uneasy.
Though unsure why, Nicki took it quite seriously.
After all, the Nidans specialize in manipulating fortune and Evil Qi.
They must believe in these.
With any unease, they attempt to pinpoint its source.
The moment Nicki sensed something was wrong, he began scrutinizing his arrangements to see if there was a lapse.
Simultaneously, he ordered the Horned Flying Monkeys to check with his subordinates if anyone’s actions were lacking.
Given the haste in implementing Plan Three this time, many details weren’t meticulously managed.
If any vulnerability surfaced, it could trigger a total collapse.
Normally, Nicki might not deliberate this much.
However, at present, Nicki must send someone to double-check if his arrangements are problematic.
If there are no issues, he’ll find a way to dispatch someone to scout Gu Xi’s forces to see if Gu Xi deployed any new troop types.
Yet he never expected once he sent the Horned Flying Monkey, his unease only intensified.
"What have we overlooked?
Everything had been thoroughly considered.
Except for the scouts who previously escaped, our setup has remained under my golden curtain.
Ordinary people simply can’t uncover our plan.
What else haven’t we accomplished?"
Nicki kept pondering.
Meanwhile, there’s no longer a need for him to recall anything further.
Immediately, all the Undead within Gu Xi’s command raised their weapons and issued a Battle Cry.
Because it’s a makeshift action, Gu Xi didn’t coordinate specific slogans.
All that was required was that all Undead simultaneously raise their weapons and shout, proving their engagement in the battlefield.
As they cried out, the White Bone Obelisk by Gu Xi’s side noticeably shone.
A shockwave visible only to Gu Xi emanated from the White Bone Obelisk, spreading across a 500-kilometer radius.
Within this range, all of Gu Xi’s enemies would be oppressed by the misfortune inflicted by fifty thousand Undead.
And this suppression wouldn’t be momentary but would persist until one side was defeated.
In this instance, Gu Xi finally realized the benefits a good teacher could bring.
