After Shaya left, Gu Xi decisively opened the other two City Gate.

These three City Gate were arranged in a triangular defensive formation.

Six Bone Dragon took to the air and circled in the sky to prevent any sneak attacks.

After all, the previous situation had frightened Gu Xi.

The murderous intent that descended from the sky almost took Gu Xi away.

This also made Gu Xi realize that the Death Avatar under his command was no longer the strongest one in this space.

To ensure his own safety, Gu Xi had no choice but to give up all his belongings.

With the troops in position, Gu Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief; his safety was no longer an issue.

However, Gu Xi was not the kind of person who would wait to defend. After confirming his own safety, Gu Xi sent out the troops under his command that he could use to scout ahead.

Gu Xi Gargoyle several directions, not asking for anything else, only hoping they could detect any enemies in advance.

It must be said that Gu Xi's idea was quite reasonable.

About ten minutes later, a Gargoyle flew back.

He flew very fast, as if something was chasing him.

Are there enemies? How many?

The Gargoyle kept shaking its head and gesturing.

Gu Xi glanced at it and quickly understood the meaning behind the Gargoyle.

There are people rushing this way, but they don't seem to be coming to attack Gu Xi; they're coming to make a deal.

Gu Xi didn't completely trust the Gargoyle theory.

He quickly climbed up the City Gate Tower and looked into the distance.

About seven or eight minutes later, the army that the Gargoyle had mentioned appeared on the horizon ahead.

At this moment, Gu Xi finally understood why the Gargoyle said they didn't seem to be there to fight, but rather to make a deal.

This team was clearly an armed force, escorting a transport unit.

Their situation is somewhat similar to that of this space; they are both beings who have become undead.

However, this unit did not have students dressed in black robes and scarves; the guards here were all Elf and fairies the size of fists.

These Elf are somewhat similar to the ghost butterflies under Gu Xi's command, except that they have bee wings on their backs.

Fairies are monsters that wear red hats and have mouths that can open all the way to their ears.

They were responsible for towing the vehicle, walking step by step towards this side.

The vehicles they were towing were piled high with gold and jewels.

As they approached, Gu Xi could clearly see that the carts of gold and jewels seemed to be shrouded in a layer of black mist.

Gu Xi thought for a moment, then tapped the Cold Wind Staff on the City Gate Tower, and an owl went down to relay the order.

As this force approached the City Gate, a group of Spirit Butterfly had already appeared near the City Gate of Gu Xi.

Their appearance near the City Gate immediately attracted the attention of the approaching troops.

The Skeleton leading the group's eyes lit up, as if he had discovered something exciting.

He even abandoned his troops and charged forward on his Skeleton Horse.

"Step back, don't come any closer."

Seeing that this person was about to rush into the attack range, Gu Xi had no choice but to give a warning in advance.

"Ah, I mean no harm, I'm here to make a deal."

The man was startled by Gu Xi's words. He immediately stopped his horse and raised a large flag.

The flag depicts a bat flying above the academy.

Upon seeing the battle flag, Gu Xi frowned.

Do the various departments in this academy still have battle flags? He'd never encountered one before.

Seeing that Gu Xi did not launch an attack, this person finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Please do not make a move. I am the administrator of the Academy Bat Building. My name is Vega. I am here to make a deal. We will not move forward now. Could you please come down and talk?"

Gu Xi stared at Vega for a long time and found that he was just a Skeleton wearing a Western Realm short jacket. If he wasn't riding Skeleton Horse, people would believe he was a coolie.

However, Gu Xi still asked, "What is the Bat Building for? Is it the name of the Bat Department?"

"Huh? No, we use bats to deliver messages and ride them in our college. The Bat Building is where we keep these bats. It is under the management of the college, but it is not one of the four major departments."

However, I graduated from the Bat Department, and I'm here temporarily representing the Bat Department to negotiate with you.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xi did not immediately go down.

At this point, Vega said again, "Sir, I have the best intelligence network in the academy, as well as the fastest way to travel, which is why I was able to get here in front of them."

The others didn't react so quickly.

"Okay, wait for me a moment."

Gu Xi flipped over and jumped off the City Gate Tower.

As he fell, the Evil Coffin caught him and brought him to a position about fifty meters in front of Vega.

At the same time, Gu Xi's men also began to gather in this direction.

How did you know I was here? What do you want?

"Sir, I saw the Nether Phoenix fly over my head, and it hasn't returned yet. Anyone with a brain can figure out what's going on."

Have you seen what I brought?

We only want the ball that the Phoenix left behind.

If you're willing to give us that ball, sir, I can keep all of these things.

If it's not enough, just tell me and I'll send more over right away.

"You mean a purple ball, about the size of a human head?"

Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, but finally asked.

"Yes, I knew it would fall into your hands."

Vega was delighted to hear this, "Just tell me how much you want."

"I probably can't give you this. My men have already taken it all, and we can't get it out of them."

Gu Xi said with a hint of helplessness.

"What?" Upon hearing this, Vega's expression also became excited.

"There's really no way around it, but I have something here that you might be interested in: a bell that looks like Skeleton. Are you interested?"

After a moment's thought, Vega exclaimed, "The Soul Control Bell?"

"You know about this? How about it, are you interested?"

"No, sir, I can't eat this. Apart from a few Department Head, no one can eat it."

"Could you tell me if I come across something this good next time, I'll save it for you?"

Vega hesitated for a moment, then finally said, "Okay, it's really just a matter of permissions and the like."

The Soul Control Bell can control all the Puppet and golems within the academy, which is an access privilege reserved for the Department Head.

The sphere left behind by the Phoenix after its death grants the ability to fly at high speed within the academy.

I've been keeping an eye on his access privileges for quite a while..."
