As he reviewed the details of the Council Hall, Gu Xi walked out of its grounds.
As he stepped out of the Council Hall's small plaza, the first thing Gu Xi saw was a Fountain Pool directly opposite it.
The Fountain Pool before him was a large basin over thirty meters in diameter. At its center stood a statue of a Skeleton Soldier holding a Longsword aloft.
The area around the Skeleton Soldier statue's feet was filled with coins of all kinds.
A great deal of Negative Energy-infused spring water sprayed from around the Fountain Pool, splashing over the Skeleton Soldier. Rainbows occasionally appeared as well.
Gu Xi recognized at once that this Fountain Pool was the Victory Magic Fountain.
This Magic Fountain had previously been built near the Troop Stockade City Gate.
Its effect was to grant all city-defending troops +1 Defense.
Gu Xi did not know why Luna had moved the Victory Magic Fountain here.
Even if the city center needed a fountain to draw crowds, she could have chosen another fountain-type building.
Increasing Defense by only 1 Point was not particularly meaningful.
While Gu Xi was still wondering what was going on, an undead in ordinary clothing happened to pass by the pool.
This undead was half-mummified and dressed in simple cloth garments. He carried no weapon and looked like an ordinary resident of the city.
Gu Xi had long grown accustomed to undead like this serving as the city's population, since he had previously acquired large numbers of undead unsuitable for battle.
Some possessed their own abilities and worked in various city buildings, filling different occupations.
Others had no abilities at all. They could not even serve as Skeleton Soldiers and cannon fodder, so they could only remain in the city to increase its population.
Regardless
