Once the troop reinforcements were nearly complete, Gu Su personally cast the Soul Summoning Technique. A faint gray glimmer of Death Qi gathered at his fingertips, turning the remaining Kobold corpses into new Undead.

Afterward, he carefully inspected the newly promoted Minions, checking their abilities and Attributes to assign them their proper roles.

This time, because the number of corpses transported from the battlefield was exceptionally large—far exceeding previous replenishments—the rewards from Soul Summoning were particularly bountiful.

After taking stock, he had gained a total of 44 Magic Skeletons, 31 Walking Dead, and 1 Ghost, in addition to replenishing other losses.

From the remaining nearly two hundred Kobold corpses, 106 Ordinary Skeletons were created.

As for the effect of the Balance of the Dead, Gu Su didn’t know whether to consider his Luck good or bad, as another Corpse Witch had appeared.

However, this Corpse Witch finally had something different about it.

Its Skills were no longer Poison Gas Bomb, but Corrosion Technique. Its Herbalism - Poison was also gone, replaced by Mining Technique - Poison.

It was clear that the poisons it used all came from minerals.

Gu Su didn’t quite know what to say about that.

After learning this, his attention turned back to the Minions and Bosses.

A third Minion had appeared among the Magic Skeletons. At the same time, according to the status on the tombstone, they were only six Magic Skeletons away from the fourth.

This was relatively good news for Gu Su.

After all, Gu Su knew just how powerful leaders were.

When he had leaders, Gu Su could completely delegate his tasks to them.

The newly appeared Magic Skeleton Minion had a star-shaped mark on its brow. It wasn’t the usual light blue or ghostly white, but a green that glowed with an eerie light. A swirling green ball of Magic Gas was gathered in the palms of its hands, and if one got close enough, they could smell a pungent, acidic odor.

A small, green, triangular flag was planted firmly on its back. On the flag’s surface, a green ball of gas emitting acidic fumes was clearly outlined in black lines. It swayed gently in the wind, and on one corner of the flag, the numbers ’25/25’ were printed, indicating the size of the squad under its command.

[Acid Wind (Level 1, Summoned Creature, Minion): Experience (0/200), Attack 2, Defense 1, Life 13, Mana 20, Talent: Strong Acid Technique]

Gu Su glanced at the system notification panel that had popped up. He lightly tapped the Attribute description on the panel, and understanding dawned on him.

This was another combat-oriented Magic Skeleton Minion who possessed exclusive Magic and could teach its subordinate Magic Skeletons new Skills. With its addition, the offensive power of the Magic Corps would rise to another level.

Moreover, its Strong Acid Technique was completely different from the Poison Series abilities of the Plague Corpses. This Magic had a powerful corrosive property. It was exceptionally effective, whether for breaching fortifications or dissolving enemies’ heavy armor.

Compared to the steady progress of the Magic Skeletons, the gains from the large Level 2 Gravepile were an even more pleasant surprise. This time, all the vacancies were filled at once, meeting the full-roster requirement. The few extra Walking Dead were now placed under the command of the Walking Dead Undead Boss, serving as his personal guards.

The Walking Dead Boss didn’t look much different from an ordinary Walking Dead. It wore nothing but a faded, plain, coarse-cloth garment. Its hands were empty, carrying no tools for labor or combat. Only the square Battle Banner planted on its back revealed its unique status.

On the deep gray surface of the banner, the silhouettes of several Walking Dead toiling with their heads down were clearly outlined in black ink. The lines were simple and powerful, without any extra embellishment, yet they conveyed a pragmatic and rigorous aura. In the bottom right corner of the design, the black text ’0/5’ was clearly printed, representing the number of Minions and troops it could command.

[Healthy Body (Level 1, Summoned Creature, Undead Boss): Experience (0/200), Attack 1, Defense 3, Life 25, Talent: Foreman]

This Talent was very interesting. It could increase the work efficiency of the Walking Dead under its command by about thirty percent. This perfectly suited the increasingly complex labor demands of the territory and was truly a timely relief.

Standing quietly beside Healthy Body was the Walking Dead Minion that had appeared at the same time. Its appearance was just as plain and unadorned.

What caught the eye was the simple yet sturdy single-wheeled cart it was pushing. The wheel was still caked with a bit of dirt. It was clearly a natural-born labor-type Walking Dead, a role quite similar to that of Iron Hand, who was in charge of mining.

It also had a small, blue, triangular flag on its back. On the flag’s surface, the outline of a single-wheeled cart was clearly drawn in black lines. Swaying gently in the wind, it exuded a sense of down-to-earth reliability. On one corner of the flag, the numbers ’25/25’ were also printed, indicating its squad’s size.

[Push Tooth (Level 1, Summoned Creature, Minion): Experience (0/200), Attack 1, Defense 3, Life 25, Talent: Transportation Technique]

Gu Su looked at it pushing the cart, standing steadily, and couldn’t help but wonder.

’I wonder if its Talent is for building single-wheeled carts or if it’s naturally gifted with superior transportation abilities. In any case, just looking at the Talent description, its carrying capacity is double that of an ordinary Walking Dead. Whether for transporting supplies or moving ore, it’s extremely practical. It can definitely take some of the pressure off Iron Hand.’

With a new Boss and Minion appearing for the Walking Dead and their ranks now complete, Gu Su no longer hesitated. Pointing to another vacant Level 2 Empty Tomb nearby, he ordered Healthy Body and Push Tooth, "You two, go down and have Stone Fist and Plague Corpses come up. Have them move into that Empty Tomb over there.

You two will lead your subordinate Walking Dead as the labor force, responsible for all kinds of work within the territory.

Those two will lead their subordinates as the defensive force here in the graveyard."

After giving these orders, a thought stirred in Gu Su’s mind. He remembered clearly that when Bone Forest had just been created, it had specifically mentioned to him that it and its subordinate troops and Minions needed a dedicated large Gravepile as an exclusive garrison to facilitate coordination and deployment.

It was just that at the time, Gu Su only had three Level 1 Empty Tombs, and each one was already clearly assigned to the Ordinary Skeletons, Elite Skeletons, and Magic Skeletons, respectively. Thus, the matter had been temporarily put on hold and couldn’t be fulfilled.

Now that the large Level 2 Gravepile was at full capacity and there was even a spare, vacant Level 2 Empty Tomb, Gu Su naturally had the idea to organize them a bit.

After all, Gu Su was well aware that the Walking Dead would likely become the main labor force of the Graveyard Demon in the future.

If he didn’t separate the labor units from the combat units, there would surely be chaos among them.
