Discoveries in Battle

Even faster than Gu Xi was the Evil Coffin. As soon as the black mist rose, the Evil Coffin instantly shifted more than thirty meters, just dodging the position of the thing that was about to fall.

Only then did Gu Xi realize what was going on; it turned out that what had crashed down was the gigantic creature from the Walrus Mound.

However, compared to the first jumping attack that came crashing down, the Walrus Mound in front of us has really been thrown here.

The Walrus Mound is currently struggling to turn over and climb out of the ice.

The Death Avatar, flying high in the sky, gave Walrus Mound no chance to react. It transformed into black mist and, with immense destructive power, descended from the sky and crashed into Walrus Mound on the spot.

The impact shattered the already thick ice, sending both the Death Avatar and the Walrus Mound plunging into White Star Lake.

At this point, Gu Xi retreated again and again, retreating more than 60 meters before finally getting out of the area where the ice had cracked.

As Gu Xi retreated, he noticed that as the battle escalated, the black mist formed by the Death Avatar became increasingly destructive.

Wherever the black fog flies, all the houses and ice surfaces will be lifted up.

This is true even when underwater.

The black fog moves just as fast underwater as it does on land, and as it moves, the nearby water currents are affected and converge towards it.

If you look closely at this point, you'll discover that the black mist destroyed everything nearby not because of its corrosive properties or its powerful impact, but because it formed a vortex similar to a tornado.

These cyclones are the source of all the destructive power.

Before, when it was flying in the air, nothing could be seen, but now that it's underwater, everything can be seen clearly.

The Walrus Mound, which had been submerged underwater, thought it could use its underwater combat abilities to stage Desolate Land comeback.

Unexpectedly, the Death Avatar possesses formidable combat power even underwater.

Dragging the Walrus Mound into the black mist, the Death Avatar relentlessly tore at the Walrus Mound's body. Although the Walrus Mound's body was large, it was not tough, unlike the Death Avatar, whose body was that of Bone Dragon and harder than steel.

The attack from the Walrus Mound struck the Death Avatar, but instead of injuring Death Avatar much, it injured itself.

At that moment, the Death Avatar released its control over the Walrus Mound.

Gu Xi, who was observing the Gu Xi below from the ice cave, was also taken aback. He was about to give an order when he felt a chill beside him, Luna appeared next to Gu Xi.

"Did you mean?"

Upon seeing Luna arrive, Gu Xi understood the situation.

Luna nodded. "That walrus-like monster is in the same situation as me. We are both spirits that died and transformed, except that I became Ghost and he became Zombie."

I want to find his true location, and if possible, we could acquire another piece of land.

After hearing Luna's words, Gu Xi glanced at the Death Avatar fighting underwater and said, "You only have half an hour. Where are the people from the Bonecleaver Battalion Camp? Are they all idle? Hurry up and come over to clean up the battlefield. Go inside and see if there are any Walrus People still alive."

Under Gu Xi's orders, the various Skeleton Soldier that had been released earlier were turned into laborers again. They rushed into the houses in White Star Lake, searching for all sorts of materials.

For Skeleton Soldier, anything they can carry is considered usable material.

In this White Star Lake, the most abundant items are naturally various kinds of dried and salted fish, followed by Bone Weapon and Animal Skin.

Finally, there were scattered Soul Crystal and gemstones.

This situation surprised Gu Xi, because the map indicated that White Star Lake was a major producer of Soul Crystal and gemstones.

Is that all?

Gu Xi was speechless.

But these were benefits that were essentially free, so Gu Xi couldn't possibly refuse them. He simply moved the City Gate of Aryadovi to a nearby location to make it easier for the Skeleton Soldier to carry.

As the city gate drew closer, Gu Xi discovered that after emptying the stock in White Star Lake, the Skeleton Soldier had begun demolishing houses.

Gu Xi hadn't expected this, and he also hadn't realized that these houses were made of high-quality timber, an important building material.

This discovery made Gu Xi quite happy. Even though he didn't get many gems and Soul Crystal, the wood was still a good harvest.

Just then, Luna, who had been observing the underwater battle, suddenly spoke.

"Found it."

Gu Xi glanced at Luna, then quickly went to Luna side. Following Luna's gaze, Gu Xi discovered that the underwater battle was nearing its end.

The Walrus Mound was repeatedly pushed back and forth underwater by the Death Avatar, stirring up the silt at the bottom of the water.

Meanwhile, the walrus graveyard was also discovered by the Death Avatar during these repeated disturbances, and a large number of walrus carcasses were turned up along with the silt.

The walruses buried here are all old walruses that feel they are about to die. Their bodies have grown to the limit of a walrus's size, and they are at least three to five meters long.

When they were buried in the lake, their flesh and fat had dissolved, leaving only white bones.

However, because the bones of the Walrus People are quite famous, and because the flesh and fat of the walruses mixed with the mud after they died, nourishing these bones, the Walrus People bones that have been unearthed now are all as white as jade and of the highest quality.

As she watched the remains being unearthed, Luna glanced back at Gu Xi.

Gu Xi immediately understood Luna's meaning. The City Gate of Aryadovi City changed direction again, and this time the tall City Gate appeared on the spot at the bottom of the lake.

Luna took this opportunity to jump into the lake and began moving a large area of land, the Walrus People Graveyard.

Seeing that Gu Xi others had made their move, Death Avatar knew that there was no need to drag it out any longer. He turned his head and bit down hard on the neck of the Walrus Mound, shaking his body incessantly.

Each blow tore a piece of flesh from the Walrus Mound.

Walrus Mound tried to struggle one last time, but it was too late. Under the attack of the Death Avatar, Walrus Mound's body was finally torn to pieces.

Meanwhile, Luna had already completed capturing the Walrus Mound's spirit and the Walrus Graveyard itself.

All the walrus carcasses underwater were sucked into the City Gate, and then the Death Avatar turned its body and disappeared in front of Gu Xi.

The battle was over.

"My lord, I'll head back now. There are many things here that I need to take care of. I'll report back to you on what I've accomplished after I've finished."

Gu Xi heard Luna's voice, and then Gu Xi realized that Luna had disappeared into the City Gate.

Meanwhile, the sound of ice breaking could be heard from the surface of White Star Lake.

Gu Xi hurriedly shouted, "All troops, retreat! Evil Coffin, we're leaving!"
