The Warriors' Tomb
As soon as Gu Xi gave the order, all the Skeleton Spearman rushed forward, while the Skeleton Archer and Skeleton Mage retreated into the City Gate at top speed.
Gu Xi also took a step back and landed easily on the Evil Coffin that was still floating on the water.
The Evil Coffin had already received Gu Xi's orders, and as soon as Gu Xi landed, the Evil Coffin dived underwater.
However, the Evil Coffin descended too quickly, and Gu Xi didn't even have time to tighten his grip on the iron chains on the Evil Coffin.
They were dragged into the water by the Evil Coffin.
Fortunately, Gu Xi reacted quickly. When he realized something was wrong, he swam a few steps toward the Evil Coffin and grabbed the iron chain at the end of the coffin, which prevented him from being thrown too far away.
However, at this moment, the Evil Coffin sank directly to the bottom of the water like a weight falling into water, and Gu Xi also quickly sank into the water.
As they were being dragged down, Gu Xi saw Luna leading the Ghost as they rushed down as well.
Then there was a loud bang.
Spore Cultist Charlie, had his Apple Tree triggered numerous Flame Trap set by Gu Xi. The combined power of the multiple traps instantly snapped the Apple Tree in two.
As Gu Xi sank down, he even heard the newly popped-up message.
[You severed one of Spore Cultist Charlie's nine main roots, reducing Spore Cultist Charlie's maximum health by 10%.]
Your actions have angered Spore Cultist Charlie, increasing the instance's mutation level by 3%.
[The Spore Cultist Charlie was influenced and retreated to his original position, not pursuing the pursuers into the underground tomb.]
[Please note that the breach in the underground mausoleum is widening. Please be aware...]
Before Gu Xi could figure out what to be careful about, he felt that the water flow around him seemed a bit off.
The once calm pool water seemed to be stimulated by something, and huge waves rose up. Even Gu Xi, who was in the water, was affected. The Evil Coffin was pushed by the water flow and kept rolling.
Gu Xi, who was clinging to the back of the Evil Coffin, was constantly being tossed around, feeling as if he were in a washing machine.
Just as the water flow finally stopped, Gu Xi heard another message.
[You have discovered the Warrior's Tomb. Do you wish to enter?]
Gu Xi looked puzzled. He stared wide-eyed and realized that he had arrived at the center of the underground mausoleum.
Beside a huge stone coffin embedded in the ground, there were many normal-sized stone coffins piled up.
Compared to the stone coffins embedded in the ground, these normal-sized stone coffins look like cruisers next to an aircraft carrier, with a huge difference in size.
However, these small stone coffins are much more ornate. Each coffin is engraved with a reclining knight, who either holds Longsword with both hands or a horn with one hand.
Although they were disrupted by the flood, the traces left at the scene show that they were there to protect the huge stone coffin.
This huge stone coffin, however, had far fewer decorations, except for a Griffin skull inlaid on the coffin lid.
Gu Xi immediately understood what was going on when he saw the situation.
He has probably reached the core of the underground mausoleum.
Before the coffin of that Flower of the North.
The information he had just received was a reminder from the stone coffins nearby.
It seems a battle is necessary to get close to the stone coffin of the Flower of the North.
"Enter!"
Because he was underwater, Gu Xi couldn't speak; he could only think about it in his mind.
In the next instant, the water around Gu Xi was pushed aside, creating an open space the size of two football fields.
Gu Xi didn't have time to react before he crashed to the ground, nearly killing Gu Xi.
Gu Xi's Evil Coffin also crashed to the ground.
Before crashing to the ground, the Evil Coffin turned slightly, Life-Life its position a bit. Otherwise, it would have definitely smashed into Gu Xi, turning him into a Gu Xi pulp.
Leaning on his Cold Wind Staff, Gu Xi stood up and looked around. He noticed that the water in the distance had become a curtain of water, blocked from this open space.
And not far from him was the stone coffin of the Flower of the North.
He hadn't noticed anything wrong with the stone coffin when he looked at it in the water, but now that he looked at it, he discovered that it was over Mido, nearly fifteen meters wide, and over sixty meters long.
Compared to this, the other stone coffins in the vicinity are insignificant and cannot be compared at all.
Just as Gu Xi was marveling at the enormous size of the stone coffin, he suddenly heard a cracking sound coming from nearby.
Gu Xi turned his head to look in the direction from which the sound came and found that all the small stone coffins nearby had been pushed open, and one by one, the spirits of the dead were crawling out of the stone coffins.
These spirits are all those who slumbered alongside the Flower of the North.
Now, spurred on by Gu Xi, they all got up.
There are at least 100 of these undead, and the weakest of them are at least level 7.
Most importantly, those who are chosen by the Flower of the North and taken to sleep with her are definitely not ordinary soldiers.
Most of these undead were leaders and warriors, and there were even a few Hero and Elite.
As they climbed out of the coffins, some pulled out weapons from the lids, while others raised horns and blew them.
To the sound of horns, waves of the dead emerged from the vicinity, their numbers gradually increasing from 100 to 200, 300, 400...
Although the enemy Undead Army was ultimately reduced to less than 500 men, Gu Xi's expression was quite grim. He could clearly see just how strong the enemy's undead were.
He tapped the ground with his Cold Wind Staff, and the City Gate appeared behind him.
The newly made battle flags fluttered above the City Gate, and troops belonging to Gu Xi began to step out of the City Gate.
Zombie Axe Shield, Skeleton Spearman, Skeleton Archer, Skeleton Mage, Ghost...
Gu Xi's troops began to line up in front of the City Gate.
As the undead soldiers emerged, Gu Xi took the opportunity to survey his surroundings.
He noticed that the enemy undead did not seem to be organized in a unified manner; they were now occupying different areas around the battlefield.
Closest to the sarcophagus of the Flower of the North were 20 knights clad in black armor. Whether they were Death Knight or not was unknown, but they were certainly skilled at Gu Xi.
Behind the City Gate stood a Ghost Hero, leading nearly a hundred Ghost.
Gu Xi was certain that he was Hero because he had raised his own banner.
On the side with the larger numbers were Skeleton Soldier and Zombie, numbering around three hundred. Although their formation looked chaotic, Gu Xi could tell that they had a dedicated Hero directing them.
What surprised Gu Xi the most was that among these undead, there was a group of about 30 Ghost Maid.
Gu Xi always felt that they were the strongest among the undead in front of her.
Gu Xi had a feeling that these Ghost Maid were all warriors.
After quickly glancing at his own attributes and then at the Undead Army who had already lined up, Gu Xi decisively gave the order.
"Skeleton Mage, Mana Drain!"
