Before Victoria Tower

After shaking off the enemy, Gu Xi and his group accelerated their advance considerably.

The walls of Victoria Tower were now in front of them.

Shaya caught up with Gu Xi had just found.

You have obtained the Melting Furnace Whistle (blue).

[Melting Furnace Whistle (Blue): Can gather and command slag to fight for you. One whistle gathers slag, two whistles revive fallen slag, and three whistles enhance and mutate slag.]

[Note: The person who uses the Melting Furnace Whistle will also be set ablaze, becoming fuel in the furnace.]

[Note: Coal slag also needs to be continuously forged.]

Looking at the things that Shaya had picked up, Gu Xi's first reaction was that something was very wrong with the Zombie Siege in Victoria City.

Judging from the Melting Furnace Whistle in front of us, it's clear that someone had been prepared for this for a long time.

Moreover, Gu Xi suspected that there was clearly more than one of these Melting Furnace Whistle.

Similar tools for controlling coal slag may exist in other places as well.

Just then, several Vampire Esquire returned.

Gu Xi glanced at them and noticed that something seemed amiss with them.

"What's wrong with you all? Why are you all so blushing?"

"After drinking that guy's blood, something seems off about it."

A Vampire Esquire, as if drunk, swayed and spoke.

"That guy, you mean the one on the rooftop just now? He was still bleeding?"

Gu Xi puzzled. Although he had only glanced at the person upstairs, it was obvious that he had also turned into coal ash, at most not into black ash.

Do people like this also have blood?

But judging from the way the Vampire Esquire are acting, they seem to have drunk quite a bit.

"What's your current situation? Are you going to advance or mutate?"

"No, I just feel a little tipsy, nothing else."

Looking at the state of these Vampire Esquire, Gu Xi felt somewhat helpless. What they were saying was all nonsense and useless. It seemed that he would have to wait until they sobered up to find out the details.

As they spoke, Gu Xi and his companions arrived at the City Gate of Victoria Tower.

At this moment, Gu Xi noticed that several heavy cannons were already aimed at them, and if they took another half step forward, these heavy cannons would be fired.

At that moment, a paladin ran out and shouted loudly at the City Gate.

"Don't attack! Don't attack! It's us! I'm Viscount Ana's eldest son! Look at my face! I'm alive! Don't attack! Don't attack!"

The soldiers on the city wall saw the paladin, but instead of moving their cannons, they sent a few men over to examine him.

Finally, a soldier said, "It's Karim from the Ana family. Go back. Victoria Tower is off-limits now. Even an earl wouldn't be allowed in, let alone you, the youngest son of a viscount. Go back. It'll be safe once you're outside the city."

"Is this General Kanu? I didn't come to Victoria Tower."

No, I didn't come to Victoria Tower to hide from the enemy, I came here because...

Seeing that the paladin's words were somewhat incoherent, Gu Xi stepped forward.

His dashing appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Gu Xi pulled the paladin behind him. "I am Gu Xi, a necromancer. I came from Westminster Abbey to escort the remains of Grand Princess Anna."

Upon hearing this, everyone on the city wall was stunned.

Seeing their expressions, Gu Xi rolled his eyes at the paladin.

This is really useless. For something so simple, just get to the point. What's the use of arguing with them about Victoria Tower?

It's no longer possible to simply tell them to open the door with a single sentence.

However, getting Victoria City was not a simple matter. Upon hearing the news of Grand Princess Anna's death in battle, Victoria City was thrown into chaos.

Soon, the sound of horns came from behind the wall, and several white-feathered crows flew out from behind the wall.

When Gu Xi saw the crows, his eyes widened in astonishment.

What have the Britain done to raise crows this big, and even to make them white?

These crows are almost as big as Golden Eagle.

If it weren't for the fact that its head couldn't lie, Gu Xi would have believed it was a white eagle.

The crows flew over and landed in Gu Xi's group. Gu Xi sensed that these crows had the air of big shots about them, giving him a disdainful look before walking over to Grand Princess Anna's body.

After viewing Grand Princess Anna's body, several crows immediately took flight.

Just when Gu Xi thought they were going back to Victoria City to deliver a message, another surprising scene unfolded.

A few crows flapped their wings, and Grand Princess Anna's body floated up.

The crows didn't even Gu Xi at them before taking away Grand Princess Anna's body.

This situation left Gu Xi speechless.

Even if they aren't qualified to enter the Victoria Tower, at least someone should come out to meet them and give them a reward or something.

They just ran away like that, what kind of escape was that? But the human soldiers didn't think that way. As the raven took flight carrying Grand Princess Anna's body, they all knelt down on one knee.

They all wore a smug look on their faces, as if they had done a great service by bringing back Grand Princess Anna's body.

Seeing their reaction, Gu Xi could only shake his head.

"Alright, we've finished our work. Let's get ready to go."

With that, Gu Xi jumped onto the Evil Coffin, preparing to return to Victoria City for another look.

As for the soldiers in front of him, Gu Xi had already made arrangements with them on the way here.

When Victoria City is rebuilt, they will help with the rest. I dare not say much else, but it would be a simple matter for them to secretly acquire a plot of land or two in the center of Victoria City for Gu Xi to build a small building or something.

Without going into details, along this route alone, there were four apartment buildings where Gu Xi could be guaranteed.

There's even one with its own Sewer and Small Pier on the shore.

As for other things, there were many more, and Gu Xi had Shaya write them all down.

After the Zombie Siege in Victoria City ends, Shaya will take over them one by one.

Shaya was very happy about this.

On the way here, she had already planned it out. Of the four apartment buildings, one could be used as a hotel and intelligence center, which would be perfect for her mentor to help train a group of intelligence personnel.

The one with the Small Pier dock can be used as a warehouse and connected to the Black Market.

The remaining two houses served as a place for Gu Xi to live in Victoria City, and as a Safe House.

As for the small building leading to and from Aryadovi City, it was naturally built in its original location. This was Gu Xi's territory, and with the guarantee of these soldiers, no one could take it away.
