Discoveries and Gains on the Battlefield

"Clean up the battlefield..."

With the fall of the largest mad willow, the battle here is nearing its end.

Gu Xi released the Ghost Squad and began ordering them to clean up the battlefield.

However, before the order was even halfway through, Gu Xi's attention was drawn to a Longsword stuck in the fallen trunk of the mad willow tree.

That Longsword is somewhat similar to the Darnathres Sword.

However, there are still some differences in the details.

Gu Xi noticed that there was a wolf fang on the hilt of the Longsword.

You have come into contact with the Sword of Domreido!

[Sword of Domreido (Gray): Professor Domreido of the Academy came into contact with the Sword of Leadership when he was a student and was recognized by the Sword of Leadership. However, he never learned swordsmanship. In his eyes, the sword has become integrated into his body and into his claws.

During a battle, he plunged this Longsword into a large tree, channeling his mad blood into the tree along with the Longsword, using the plant to suppress his inner madness.

Compared to the Darnathres Sword from last time, this Longsword did not have the same destructive power and did not cause Gu Xi any injury.

Looking at the tree stump with the Sword of Domreido stuck in it, Gu Xi turned around and waved.

"You lot, come here and take this tree stump, along with the sword on it, to the Aryadovi City."

After issuing the order, Gu Xi was also considering how many people in that mysterious academy had received the Leader 'Sword of Leadership and gained its approval.

Does everyone who gains the approval of the Sword of Leadership leave behind a Longsword?

Gu Xi was unaware that there were quite a few cases of imitations of academy treasures.

Almost every professor who graduated from the Crocodile Department carries such Longsword, after all, this department is famous for producing Sword Saint.

Just like all professors who graduated from the Reindeer Department, their backpacks are always three to five times larger than others.

Some of them learned swordsmanship to make it easier to use Longsword.

Some even became Sword Saint who only knew how to use the Flash Spell.

However, some professors themselves do not know how to use swords. After obtaining Longsword, they use them in other ways.

After the Mysterious Academy disappeared, their swords were left behind.

It has become something that can be seen here from time to time.

Gu Xi has only been here for a relatively short time. If he had stayed longer, he might have seen many more similar Longsword.

But if Gu Xi doesn't know, then so be it.

After his men dug up the tree stump and roots, Gu Xi stood in front of the pit and looked down.

"Someone come down there, is there something down there? Go down and get it for me."

Gu Xi pointed to the large pit and asked somewhat uncertainly.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a group of Ghost jumped down and carried up all sorts of things from below.

Gu Xi noticed that one of the Skeleton was a fairly normal one, but Gu Xi was certain that it was this thing that had attracted him earlier.

When Gu Xi saw the Skeleton, he frowned. He understood why he had paid special attention to Skeleton.

Previously, when he was with the Black Robe Skeleton, he didn't want to complete the mission. Instead, he wanted to use the Skeleton to teach himself leadership skills.

The Skeleton he took out back then was somewhat similar to the one in front of us.

Because this incident had a significant impact on Gu Xi immediately memorized the Skeleton image.

Now that he has unintentionally seen the same Skeleton, Gu Xi will naturally notice it.

After realizing why he was so agitated, Gu Xi immediately picked up the Skeleton.

The moment Gu Xi touched the Skeleton, a message popped up in front of him.

You have obtained the Inheritance Skull (Druid)

[Inheritance Skull (Druid): Allows you to learn skills exclusive to the Druid class, including Werewolf Transformation, enabling you to fight as a werewolf and utilize the werewolf talent tree (which can be learned by other classes)].

Looking at the information on the Skeleton, Gu Xi put the thing down.

Druid is one of Gu Xi's favorite professions.

If he hadn't chosen the path of a necromancer, he might have become a Druid.

However, even if he became Druid, he wouldn't go into the shapeshifting category. The kind of transformation into a beast is not Gu Xi's direction.

Even though he had heard that Pat-Pat Bear was invincible, Gu Xi was indifferent to that kind of approach.

In his mind, if he really became Druid, he would probably focus on planting trees and using plants or other small animals to fight, while he would stay far away from the main battlefield and cast some small spells.

Gu Xi felt this thing was useless, so he tossed the Inheritance Skull in his hand and was about to put it away.

Just then, Gu Xi's men brought over other things.

This time, what was delivered was processed Fire Rat Skin and Fire Rat Bone.

Among the quest items needed by Gu Xi is the Fire Rat King's Fang.

After receiving the tooth, Gu Xi was about to have the rest of the items sent to Aryadovi City.

Unexpectedly, the fangs' hint led Gu Xi to see something different.

[Fire Rat King's Fangs (Gray): The most powerful Fire Rat King's Fangs. A Fire Rat must defeat at least a thousand of its own kind to become the new king, and their fangs are stained with Fire Rat's blood.

Book clips made from these sharp teeth can keep books dry for a long time.

"It seems Madam Sha didn't ask for more."

Looking at this attribute, Gu Xi couldn't help but say something.

If the Fire Rat King's fangs are indeed like those before us, then Madam Sha's remaining two quest items are likely to be useful for protecting or crafting books.

These are things that Madam Sha finds inconvenient to find, but which she desperately needs.

Unfortunately, Madam Sha is no longer alive, nor is her library.

Shaking his head, Gu Xi turned to the Ghost Squad and gave them orders.

"All the timber here should be transported back; we shouldn't waste it."

These are great materials for making Magic Wand..."

Before Gu Xi could finish speaking, he noticed something amiss in the Mad Willow Forest; a group of undead seemed to be gathered there doing something.

What are you doing?

Gu Xi curiously went over to them.

When Gu Xi arrived, he saw a tree pit that had been uprooted, with a large number of black Pottery Jar scattered around it.

What is this? Ashes? Looking at the grayish-white powder in the overturned and broken Pottery Jar, Gu Xi had a guess in his mind.

"What happened? How was this discovered?"

None of the surrounding undead could explain it. In the end, it took several Undead Headman gesturing wildly for a long time before Gu Xi finally understood what was going on.
