As the Spliced Head was stuffed into the Evil Coffin, the black mist inside the Evil Coffin surged out along the edge of the coffin. Within the black mist, Gu Xi could also see a twisting human face, which seemed to be the shape of the Spliced Head.

[With its skull pieced together, the Evil Coffin acquires a new skill: Automatic Navigation!]

[Automatic Navigation: Provide the Evil Coffin with a corresponding map, and then allow it to move freely. The Evil Coffin transport you to your desired location within a specified time.]

Looking at the information that popped up in front of him, Gu Xi roughly understood what was going on.

Because he embedded this thing in the Evil Coffin, the Evil Coffin's original automatic pathfinding ability was turned into a special skill.

After Gu Xi, you can lie down on the coffin lid, take a nap, and go directly to the designated location.

This is a good way to be lazy, but it doesn't mean much to Gu Xi. The original Evil Coffin already had this ability, but at most they could only lock onto a direction and move forward according to a vague concept.

Unlike now, where they simply give you a map and navigate there directly.

Faced with this situation where there seems to be improvement, yet it also feels like there hasn't been any improvement, Gu Xi doesn't even know where to begin complaining.

At this moment, Luna also floated over. She glanced at the Evil Coffin, then turned to Gu Xi and said, "My lord, your mount."

"What's wrong with this mount? It's obviously very fast."

Gu Xi asked, looking puzzled.

"No, what I meant was that you probably can't ride this mount. You'll just slide off if you stand on it."

Gu Xi was now in an awkward situation. He climbed onto the Evil Coffin and tried it out. Just as Luna had said, because the lid of the Evil Coffin was too slippery, Gu Xi couldn't sit down at all if he hadn't been holding onto the iron chains tightly.

He tried to straddle the Evil Coffin as before, but found that it had not only become longer, but also much wider, making it impossible for him to straddle it.

As for standing on the Evil Coffin, that was even more impossible. He had just crawled to his feet when he felt like he was standing on ice.

Gu Xi believed that if the Evil Coffin moved even slightly, he would definitely be the one thrown out.

"Luna, what are your thoughts?"

"Let's sew a Coffin Cover like a saddle."

Luna offered her opinion.

Upon hearing Luna's words, Gu Xi suddenly realized what was going on.

"No need to sew a Coffin Cover, it's not that troublesome. Here's my battle flag. Put the battle flag on the coffin lid and weigh it down with iron chains. That way, people can sit on it. I wonder what kind of evil thing is inside this coffin."

Even being draped in a flag after death—that's a state funeral!

That's what he said, but other thoughts flashed through Gu Xi's mind.

He counted the few remaining strips of Magic Pattern Cloth and Lion King Mane in his hands, and pondered how much of the gray trash could be used as weaving material; his battle banner needed to be remade.

After hearing what Gu Xi said, Luna actually thought about it seriously.

"Covering the battle flag is fine, but sir, we need to design our battle flag. We can't use the same flag every time we go into battle. The flag with the thumbs up will be the Chief Battle Flag."

If you couldn't see it, you'd think it was a white flag.

"Alright, when we get back this time, we'll find someone to design the battle flag. We'll definitely design something cool."

As he said this, Gu Xi pressed his forehead.

Two consecutive battles had already drained his energy, and the two large-scale Summoning and the summoning of the Death Avatar had further depleted Gu Xi's magical power.

I didn't feel anything while cleaning up the battlefield.

Gu Xi now feels like he's about to collapse.

"Let me sleep for a bit. I need to recover my strength and mana. Luna, you stay here and keep watch. If anything happens, just wake me up."

After saying that, Gu Xi ignored everything else, lay down on the Evil Coffin, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

Seeing Gu Xi asleep, Luna didn't say anything. She simply pointed at the Evil Coffin, causing it to fall to the ground.

The evil creature inside the Evil Coffin still tried to move around, but Luna glared at it with her empty eyes, and the Evil Coffin quickly became docile, not daring to move an inch.

At this moment, Luna silently directed the undead to take their respective positions.

Arrange for Gargoyle to scout the area and for Ghost to search for suitable battlefields.

Finally, she even arranged for someone to return to Aryadovi City to prepare food for Gu Xi.

It can be said that Luna managed everything perfectly on her own when Gu Xi was away.

Gu Xi was unaware of all this; at this moment, he had achieved the feat of falling asleep on the battlefield at will.

While asleep, he didn't even move an inch, only his right hand remained tightly gripping the iron chain on the Evil Coffin.

Gu Xi slept for about an hour and a half when the Ghost who had been sent to Aryadovi City to prepare food for Gu Xi suddenly flew out and whispered a few words to Luna.

Luna's empty eye sockets widened considerably.

Luna then looked at Gu Xi with some difficulty.

Just as she was hesitating, Gu Xi still had his eyes closed, slowly said, "Go do whatever you need to do. I'm awake now."

"Grown ups."

Upon hearing Gu Xi speak, Luna quickly floated to Gu Xi side.

Gu Xi turned over and sat up.

"What happened? You seem very anxious."

"It was Shaya who came back once. When she found that we weren't there, she left a message in the Council Hall saying that Victoria City was becoming increasingly chaotic and that our small building in Victoria City was being targeted."

It seems that the Aryadovi City is about to undergo another change.

She told us to be prepared and not to miss this opportunity.

What happened to Victoria City?

After a good Gu Xi's sleep, Gu Xi felt much better and was now in a rare state of mind to think about the gossip.

"I don't know either. Shaya's message didn't contain much information. I want to go back and ask her."

Gu Xi nodded. He understood that Luna's strength was closely related to the Aryadovi City, which was a mirror image of Aryadovi City Victoria City.

Every piece of news about Victoria City is important to Luna.

"Alright, you go back first, take those Ghost with you. Oh, and take that Skeleton Magician Head with you too, he's no use staying here. Don't worry about things here."

I've had enough sleep, and my magic power has recovered quite well. Even if a stronger enemy appears later, I still have the Death Avatar.

Even if we can't win, I can still hold this place and prevent the enemy from getting in.

Gu Xi had a fairly clear understanding of his own abilities.

Gu Xi was quite confident in handling the current battlefield situation.

"Grown ups..."

"Don't worry, it's nothing serious. Go and take a look first. If you need anything, just bring in reinforcements from Aryadovi City. Go, that's an order!"
