Activating Evil Wood Lake
After killing all the Ghoul Evil Flying Head, Dimi elegantly took out a bottle of White Liquor, washed her hands, and then stood behind Gu Xi, as if she hadn't been the one who had just attacked.
Dimi's reaction surprised Gu Xi.
What's going on here?
"I will not fight for you until the three buildings I requested are built, but I will definitely take action if the city is attacked."
Dimi spoke casually, his tone and attitude as if he were saying that the apples were ripe and would fall off the tree on their own.
Seeing Dimi's condition, Gu Xi couldn't say anything to her.
After all, Dimi's words just now could be considered an act of violence.
Gu Xi could only have people keep an eye on this area to prevent the strange creatures that could rush into his city at any time.
Just then, Shaya also came over.
"Sir, there's something you might need to come and see."
After hearing what Shaya said, Gu Xi didn't say anything Mido and followed Shaya to the battlefield where they had just been.
At this moment, Gu Xi discovered that at the spot where Ghoul Evil Flying Head, there was some black liquid left behind.
Gu Xi extended his Cold Wind Staff and tapped the droplets; a message popped up in front of him.
[Found Strange Evil Liquid (gray) *1]
[Strange Evil Liquid (Gray): The liquid formed after the death of a slain Strange Creature. This eerie liquid seems to possess a peculiar power.]
[Special material discovered. Would you like to unlock the Evilwood Lake activation effect?]
Gu Xi was startled. This was actually related to the Evilwood Lake? Thinking of this, Gu Xi quickly checked the activation method of the Evilwood Lake.
[Evilwood Lake (Special Building, Not Activated): By using Evilwood Lake as a lure, attract Strange Creature to draw water, then surround and kill them. Once 1000 of these Strange Creature are killed and left in the lake, Evilwood Lake will be activated.]
[Once Evilwood Lake is activated, all creatures in the city gain +10 health, all Arrow Tower in the city automatically gain Toxicity Attack, and Poison Cloud Layer will automatically form above Evilwood Lake, altering the surrounding territorial environment.]
Looking at the activation method and the effect after activation, Gu Xi looked up at the location of the tentacle tree roots.
It seems that these Ghoul Evil Flying Head were attracted by this thing.
But to activate this thing, another great battle is needed.
Just as Gu Xi was pondering this question, Luna arrived with her troops.
These troops were mobilized on orders issued by Gu Xi when the problem was discovered.
It just seems we're a little late now.
"Keep the Corpse Poison Fly. Luna, send over some more Skeleton Archer. Gargoyle, go back first. Skeleton Mage, come over and clean up the battlefield. Take this black liquid to the lake over there."
Looking at the troops that had been mobilized, Gu Xi simply put them to work.
When Luna returned with the Skeleton Archer, the activation progress at the Withered Wood Lake had changed to (11/1000).
At this moment, Gu Xi brought Luna to the top of the City Gate and pointed to the mist in the distance.
"Do you still remember the design of the Energy Lighthouse? Take a look at the schedule and build the Energy Lighthouse in this location to clear away the fog ahead."
"Sir, we haven't investigated the effects of the Energy Lighthouse yet. Wouldn't it be a waste to use it like this?"
"It's alright, let's build it first. The Demon Plant Zone is quite dangerous right now. Even if it's not used to illuminate the fog, it can be used to strengthen the combat capabilities here."
Luna also noticed from the situation just now that the situation in the Demon Plant Zone was somewhat dangerous.
Without a large army stationed there, if anything were to happen, the Demon Plant Zone would become a target for attacks from eerie creatures and Ghoul Shadow.
"I understand. I'll have Fu Gu keep an eye on this area."
"Okay, you handle things here. Also, the activation of Evilwood Lake has been started. After killing the monster, throw its corpse into the lake. Once you accumulate a thousand, it will be activated."
But I always feel this isn't the limit of Evilwood Lake. You keep a close eye on things here, and if there's anything strange, kill it and throw it in.
This is a long-term task; while I'm away, it's all up to you.
"Please rest assured, sir, I will keep this in mind."
"Alright, the Skeleton Archer Corpse Poison Fly will patrol nearby, and we'll deploy as many Skeleton Archers as we can here. Skeleton Mage will come with us; we can go check out the newly built Magic Tower."
Seeing that things were settled, Gu Xi finally felt relieved.
He led his troops from the Demon Plant Zone to the Upper District.
Once you leave the Demon Plant Zone, the style of twisted trees everywhere disappears.
Instead, the architectural style of the Upper District was adopted.
However, Gu Xi noticed something: Dimi, who had been following behind him, had disappeared.
"Hey, where's Dimi? Wasn't she just killing time? Where did she go?"
"Dimi thought the Demon Plant Zone was more interesting, so he stayed there."
Shaya explained something to Gu Xi.
Gu Xi immediately understood what he meant by the "more interesting Demon Plant Zone." It was clear that they hadn't had enough of killing earlier and were planning to wait for the strange creatures to walk into their trap in the Demon Plant Zone.
Gu Xi wouldn't object to such a thing, since Dimi was idle anyway.
Moreover, given her combat prowess, having her stationed in the Demon Plant Zone would be beneficial to the war effort.
So Gu Xi stopped paying attention to the matter.
He simply led his men back to the location where the Nature Staff had been discovered before.
A Magic Tower has now been built here.
This Magic Tower, only three meters high and occupying 700 square meters, is full of necromancy style, with black walls, a square foundation, and Skeleton- shaped reliefs on the doors and windows as decorations.
Even a long stretch in front of the Magic Tower was affected; the ground was covered with black stone slabs, and there were Skeleton statues holding white candles on both sides of the road.
Only where the Nature Staff was planted could a glimmer of life be seen.
Upon arriving at the Magic Tower, before Gu Xi could even examine Magic Tower condition, the Magic Tower's doors swiftly opened.
A Ghost floated out from inside.
The Ghost was dressed in a long black robe, with only a semi-transparent Skeleton face visible beneath the hood.
When the Ghost saw Gu Xi, it lowered its head.
"Anthony greets Your Excellency."
As Ghost Anthony lowered his head, information about the Magic Tower and Anthony popped up in front of Gu Xi.
