"Please wait here for a moment. 100 Ghost Speed-type monsters and 50 Withering One. Be quick."

The Ferocious Weasel told Gu Xi to wait aside while it quickly made arrangements, having its colleagues bring in one hundred Ghost and fifty Withering One.

The Ghost didn't have any special characteristics. Even when they were assigned to the Yin Wind Battalion and the Ghost Qi Battalion, their appearance didn't change much.

It was the Withering One that surprised Gu Xi.

He knew beforehand that these Withering One were transformed from Druid after their deaths.

But he never expected that the Withering One before him would look like this.

These are clearly a special group of Tree Demon; they have human heads, arms, and torsos, but their lower bodies are those of a deer.

They held a Long Spear and staff made of vines in their hands.

However, Gu Xi didn't notice that; what she noticed was that some mushrooms were growing on their deerskin.

As it runs forward, the mushroom spores scatter and fly everywhere.

[The Withering One (Level 4, Summoned Creature): Experience (0/750), Attack 8+3 (Vine Spear), Defense 8, Health 45, Ammo 8, Skills: Undead Creature, Unending March (Immune to all slowing skills), Plague Poison Art, Spore Restoration Art.]

Looking at the attributes of the Withering One before him, Gu Xi couldn't help but sigh. As expected of an elite undead, its strength and abilities far surpassed those of ordinary undead.

These Withering One possess both melee and ranged abilities, can use spells, and can even heal themselves.

This is a versatile unit that can be deployed anywhere on the battlefield.

With the addition of such a force, Gu Xi has more Tactics to choose from in combat.

This is a good thing for Gu Xi.

Although he didn't know what had happened in Victoria City, the fact that Luna and the others hadn't returned meant that something was wrong there.

Gu Xi must now garrison troops to ensure he has sufficient strength to manage matters in Victoria City.

Even if they can't gain an advantage in this incident in Victoria City, they must ensure that their interests are not stolen by others.

These troops are exactly what Gu Xi needs most now.

With their current troop strength, Gu Xi might be able to manage to protect himself in Victoria City.

"These soldiers are all here. Do you want me to take them to the designated location?"

As all the soldiers were mobilized, the Ferocious Weasel looked at Gu Xi.

"No need, I'll just take them away."

As Gu Xi spoke, a City Gate appeared behind him.

Because they are currently in the Barracks, the City Gate are not wide open, but they are wide enough for the Ghost and Withering One to enter.

Faced with this situation, all the Ferocious Weasel in the Barracks were stunned. They had seen all sorts of ways of leading troops, but they had never seen anything like this before.

After taking all the troops, Gu Xi made a special trip to the Guild Shop.

This time he was no longer an intern member, so he also had certain purchasing privileges in the Guild Shop.

As soon as Gu Xi arrived, he chose Magic Potion. This time, he took a large bottle of Magic Potion that could replenish 2,000 mana points at once.

Actually, Gu Xi really wanted to buy those giant bottles of Magic Potion that could directly replenish 5000 mana points.

The problem is that his current mana level isn't high enough, so buying too much would be a waste. Also, his access to the Guild Shop isn't high enough yet, so he can only buy large bottles of Magic Potion.

Left with no other choice, Gu Xi had to accept it. However, at this moment, Gu Xi was already planning to build an Alchemy Laboratory in Aryadovi after returning, specifically to produce various Magic Potion.

To avoid ending up needing mana but having no potions available.

After buying all the necessary supplies, Gu Xi did not return to the apartment building arranged for him by the guild, but instead went to the location where he had initially agreed to enter and exit Aryadovi City.

Here, Gu Xi opened the gate to Aryadovi, carrying the Cold Wind Staff, and strode inside.

When Gu Xi reappeared, he naturally appeared in front of the Council Hall of Aryadovi City.

At this moment, Dimi was still sitting on the steps waiting for Gu Xi.

However, with the influx of a large number of undead, Aryadovi is clearly more alive.

"Has there been any news from Luna yet?"

Gu Xi glanced at Dimi, who had his legs crossed, and asked with some concern.

"Four owls have already spawned, and one hasn't returned yet."

Gu Xi understood the situation immediately: the owls in the Owl Building would not respawn unless they died.

Now that four have spawned, it means that four died on the way.

The one that didn't return, we don't know if it was looking for Luna, or if it was unable to fly back to deliver the message.

This left Gu Xi somewhat helpless; there was nothing he could do about the lack of communication.

However, he has now logged out of the previous Game World and wants to try again at the Hearthstone leading to Victoria City, so he should know the situation by now.

"I understand. Could you please keep an eye on things for me again? I have something else to take care of first."

After taking only two steps, Gu Xi suddenly remembered the Ghost and the Withering One that had just entered.

He pointed at the Ghost and said, "The Ghost will find their own groups and rejoin them, Withering One will go to the Demon Plant Zone."

After making arrangements for everyone, Gu Xi headed towards the small house that led into Victoria City.

The fire in the hut was still burning, and the firewood in the fire was not affected much. The situation was no different from when Gu Xi had come before.

Gu Xi walked to the fireplace and placed his hand on the Hearthstone.

The next instant, Gu Xi's hand was still knocked away.

However, this time the force of the bounce was not as strong as before.

This brought a glimmer of joy to Gu Xi's eyes. Although there was still a rebound, the force was clearly not as strong as before, which meant that Gu Xi's idea was correct.

He had the opportunity to enter Victoria City.

So Gu Xi exerted force with his hand, preparing to forcibly activate the power of the Hearthstone.

Just then, Gu Xi heard Shaya's voice coming from the hearth.

"Look, we've determined the coordinates."

Before Gu Xi could react, the fire in the fireplace suddenly blazed up, Shaya led the others out of the flames.

Before Gu Xi could figure out what was going on, a gust of cold wind blew by, and Luna, along with a large number of Ghost, burst out of the flames.

As soon as they stood still, they saw Gu Xi standing by the Hearthstone.

Luna and Shaya quickly bowed their heads. "My lord, what brings you here?"

"The battle at Loose Immortal Garden is over. I was a little worried because you haven't returned and I don't know what happened in Victoria City."

At this point, Gu Xi didn't explain further, but instead asked directly.

"What happened in Victoria City? Why was your contact cut off?"
