As Gu Xi said this, the force preventing him weakened significantly, but there was still a force hindering his progress.
Gu Xi thought for a moment and immediately understood what was happening.
He loudly declared, "I am the master of this place. As the master of this place, I decree that this land belongs to Damingwei District and has no connection to Camden District."
As soon as he finished speaking, the force preventing him from advancing completely disappeared.
At the same time, the ruins before him transformed. The entire ruin receded to both sides, and various materials piled up into a bizarre three-story building. This building only occupied about two hundred square meters, and it looked like it was pieced together from a decent apartment building with various mismatched materials.
It was twisted and strange, but Gu Xi noticed that the windows of this building seemed to be more numerous and larger than those of a normal apartment building, as if they had been specifically modified.
In addition, outside the building was a small garden covering an area of about one hundred square meters.
Various special flowers and herbs were planted in the garden.
A hint of a smile appeared on Gu Xi's face.
It seemed his guess was correct. There were two rules that repelled outsiders here. One was that the place was masterless. If the owner of this place brought a legal land deed or other materials, the first layer of rules could not stop them.
The second layer was the issue of Street Block division. The previous owner of this place had truly taken people's hearts into account.
Just as he thought, no one would choose to give up the opportunity of Camden District and let this house be located in Damingwei District.
So the people here had occupied this place for so many years in vain.
Now that the owner of this place had arrived, no matter how much the occupants had arranged, it was useless.
Looking at the apartment building that had appeared before him, Gu Xi took two steps forward, carrying the Powderize Staff.
At the same time, a gate made of giant stones quickly appeared behind him.
The Skeleton Soldiers under Gu Xi were walking out of the gate.
"Go in, take this apartment, and clean it out completely."
The Skeleton Soldiers knew what Gu Xi meant by 'clean it out completely'. It wasn't about cleaning the apartment, but about clearing out the dangers within the apartment building.
After all, the apartment building before him didn't look like a normal building. If he had the time, Gu Xi would have liked to tear down this apartment building and rebuild one himself.
The Skeleton Soldiers had just rushed out, not even reaching the gate of the apartment building, when Gu Xi heard a strong gust of wind.
A snake tail as thick as a person swept across the front of the gate, smashing the Skeleton Soldier at the front into pieces.
Then Gu Xi saw the situation before him. He discovered that a giant snake was nailed to the gate. Only the tail of the snake could move. Three iron nails were hammered into the snake's head, fusing the snake with the gate.
"Luna!"
Upon seeing the situation, Gu Xi decisively ordered.
Luna, who had been hiding behind Gu Xi, understood instantly. She quickly appeared behind the snake and pointed at it.
Touch of Frost!
The snake was quickly frozen, and several Skeleton Soldiers quickly stepped forward, thrusting their Spears heavily into the snake's vital spot.
Skeleton Soldier (Summon) killed Magic Mutated Snake (Level 4), you gained 1 experience point, Battle Squad gained 1 experience point, Contracted Undead gained 10 experience points, Summons participating in the kill gained 5 experience points.
As the snake was killed, a piercing alarm sounded from inside the apartment building.
The sound was even sharper than Luna's Banshee's Wail, but it had no offensive power.
But as the sound rang out, a large group of owls flew out of the nearby windows.
There were quite a few of these owls. In just a moment, several hundred owls swooped towards Gu Xi.
Don't think that owls have no attack power. They are carnivorous creatures that usually eat rabbits, mice, and snakes.
As they flew out, they directly pounced on the Skeleton Soldiers, as if they wanted to drag the Skeletons into the sky and throw them away.
Gu Xi only had this many troops. He couldn't let his subordinates be lost here.
As the owls flew down, Gu Xi pointed at the sky.
"Kill!"
Then ten Bone Spikes flew out, piercing into the owls like arrows.
Killed Magic Owl (Level 1), you gained 7 experience points. [Killed Magic Owl (Level 1), you gained 6 experience points.]
[...]
As Gu Xi made his move, several Skeleton Soldiers quickly stood in front of him, raising their shields to block the attacks swooping down from the sky.
Not needing to worry about his own safety, Gu Xi locked onto the owls the moment one died in the sky. He pointed at the corpses and spoke again.
"Corpse Explosion!"
Instantly, the corpses of several owls exploded, killing several more nearby.
After killing a few more owls, Gu Xi's Skeleton Soldiers began to slaughter the rest.
Although there were many owls, their levels weren't actually that high. At first, when they charged in a large group, they seemed quite powerful, but after being hit by the explosion, the situation became much simpler. As long as a Skeleton Soldier wasn't dragged into the sky by an owl, it could easily kill twenty of them.
Now, it was even easier. The Skeleton Soldiers were going all out, slaughtering the owls. They coordinated with each other, with some wielding two-handed swords at close range and others using Spears from a distance.
As soon as an owl descended even a little, it would be easily pinned to the ground.
Just then, the door behind Gu Xi and the others suddenly opened, and a dark figure rushed out.
The way this dark figure moved was quite strange, looking as if it was floating. However, it couldn't float too far, stopping somewhere after flying about ten meters.
When it stopped, one could see the original form of the dark figure: a man in a black robe, his face twisted beyond recognition, with only a few teeth left.
But as soon as this man steadied himself, he pointed at Gu Xi, and a beam of red light shot out from his hand.
The Skeleton Soldiers in front of Gu Xi quickly raised their shields, using themselves to block the red light.
As the Skeleton Soldier exploded, Gu Xi retreated backward, throwing two Bone Spikes at the dark figure.
However, Gu Xi's Bone Spikes were far too slow compared to the dark figure's speed.
Several Bone Spikes flew out, but none of them hit the enemy.
Fortunately, this dark figure needed to stop in order to launch an attack; when he transformed into a dark shadow, he couldn't attack others.
Gu Xi kept his hand moving, preventing the guy from stopping.
At this time, Luna also received Gu Xi's prompt and was looking for an opportunity to freeze the enemy.
While Gu Xi was preparing, the Skeleton Soldiers had killed all the owls and began to charge towards the dark figure.
