After passing through the empty Hundred-Armed Giant Graveyard Zone, Gu Xi and his companions arrived at the edge of the Hundred-Armed Giant Graveyard Zone.

Here, the ground rapidly subsided, leaving dark red marks on the broken steps and moss-covered blue bricks.

Looking down from the edge of the corridor, you'll see a thick fog of blood permeating the sunken area.

As soon as Gu Xi's Evil Coffin stopped, Shaya and Dimi quickly appeared.

Dimi sniffed the air, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

"Poisoned blood is meaningless."

Although Dimi said that, her eyes remained fixed on the Blood Cellar Zone in front of her.

Looking down from above, all the buildings in the Blood Cellar Zone are built around a cross-shaped building in the center of the area.

The cruciform building resembled a European-style manor house, constructed entirely of bluestone. Under the blood mist, the building appeared quite gloomy.

Outside the building, there are a lot of vines, giving it a feeling of being dilapidated from a distance.

On the left and right sides of the manor are an outdoor swimming pool filled with filthy, bloody water and a garden full of blood-red fruits. When the wind blows through the garden, the fruits in the garden seem to chuckle.

"Let's go down and take a look."

Gu Xi slapped the Evil Coffin, and the Evil Coffin carried Gu Xi downwards. Gu Xi 'Gu Xi subordinates also quickly jumped down and followed him.

Upon landing in the blood cellar, Gu Xi's first sight was of the Vampire Statue built by the roadside.

It's less of a statue and more of Vampire dissection Puppet, directly displaying the Vampire's skin, muscles, internal organs, and bones.

At the same time, Gu Xi noticed that there were many Vampire corpses hanging by the roadside, and all of them had iron spikes made of peach wood or silver nailed into Vampire bodies.

When Gu Xi approached, these Vampire, who were clearly dead, opened their eyes and followed Gu Xi's movements.

Faced with this situation, Gu Xi was somewhat speechless.

What are these? Background? Or Auxiliary Building? Fortunately, there weren't many Vampire nailed to the roadside like this, and Gu Xi soon saw the road leading to the Vampire Residence.

The roads on the ground were also paved with bluestone slabs, on which were engraved the weapons used by Vampire and vampire hunters.

This was clearly meant to explain to Gu Xi that the Vampire trained in this Vampire Residence were the kind of Vampire who knew how to fight.

Before Gu Xi and his group arrived at the Vampire Residence, Gu Xi found that the mansion gate was already open, and several men wearing chainmail, black cloaks, and carrying Two-Handed Sword were standing at the gate, waiting for Gu Xi's arrival.

However, Gu Xi noticed that in front of the Vampire Residence, there was a throne made of countless bats at the Fountain Pool. The water from the Fountain Pool was pouring onto the throne and turning into blood that flowed into the pool.

Before Gu Xi could say anything, Dimi took a step forward, stepped into the Fountain Pool, and reached out to touch the throne.

Gu Xi turned to look at Dimi. "What, you want it?"

"Ah, no, no, that's not it."

Dimi was also somewhat embarrassed. The Blood Throne was attractive to Dimi, but it wasn't something Dimi needed.

She didn't know why she walked up to the Blood Throne as soon as she saw it.

Dimi looked at Gu Xi somewhat awkwardly.

Gu Xi didn't care about any of that. He waved to Dimi and said, "It's okay. We'll be staying here for a while. You can continue."

Dimi blushed and lost all her previous air of a noblewoman. She shrank back and followed behind Gu Xi.

Only then did Gu Xi turn his attention to the men standing at the door.

Gu Xi noticed that in addition to the Two-Handed Sword, they also had a silver medal in their hands.

He paused for a moment, then understood what was going on. Gu Xi took a medal and hung it on the man's chest.

In the next instant, the man's aura noticeably increased.

At the same time, green blood began to appear on the Longsword in his hand.

This indicates that the man's strength was enhanced when the medal was placed on him.

"Thank you, sir."

The man lowered his head to Gu Xi.

Gu Xi was stunned for a moment, then he laughed.

For the first time, Gu Xi heard the soldier speak.

"Vampire Esquire?"

Gu Xi asked a question.

"Yes, once you wear the medal, you become Vampire Esquire. Wearing it before being recruited will increase the recruitment cost, and after being recruited, you need a lot of experience to wear it."

Vampire Esquire answered very seriously, his response somewhat rigid, unlike Dimi's flexibility.

Gu Xi wasn't surprised by this, since these were just soldiers, not even leaders.

"Then let's put them all on. Combat experience can be gained in battle, but level should definitely be the priority."

Gu Xi didn't want to drag these Vampire along. He wanted to level up first, and then it would be easier to gain combat experience later.

There's no need to keep dragging this out because of a little Negative Energy.

Upon hearing Gu Xi's words, all the men standing at the door smiled.

Without Gu Xi their part, they simply hung the medals on their chests themselves.

Once all the Vampire had been promoted to Vampire Esquire, Gu Xi recruited them all.

Gu Xi then glanced at Dimi and noticed that Dimi was looking up at the sky. Before the three large buildings were completed, it would be impossible for Dimi to lead the team into battle.

"Shaya, you take these Vampire with you for now. They should be agile, right?"

When Gu Xi asked this question, he looked at the Vampire Esquire, waiting for their answer.

"Yes," Dimi said, not wanting to stand aside. "Their movement method is somewhat similar to teleportation, but with a smaller range than regular teleportation, allowing them to teleport themselves behind the enemy."

However, the weapons they used were unsuitable for assassin combat.

After they teleport, the most appropriate course of action is to immediately finish them off.

As Leader Potential, Dimi was extremely familiar with the three types of troops he could control.

With just one glance, she figured out how to use these Vampire Esquire.

Shaya paused for a moment, then thanked Dimi.

Even without Dimi's words, she could have controlled these Vampire, but it would have taken her a considerable amount of time to become familiar with them.

With Dimi's reminder, she was able to take control of everything in the shortest amount of time.

Regardless, Dimi's words deserved a thank you from Shaya.

Meanwhile, Gu Xi had already finished exploring the Blood-colored Garden next to the Vampire Residence, and had seen the Bat Cave further back, near the edge of the Blood Cellar Zone. Now he had returned to the main entrance of the Vampire Residence.
