After taking a walk around the teaching building of the Crow Department and getting a general understanding of its basic structure, he returned to his office.

After walking up and down the stairs, Gu Xi suddenly realized what his teaching building was like.

This is clearly an enlarged version of the interior of Shadowfang Keep.

The interior is winding and intricate; without a good sense of direction, it would be impossible to navigate everything.

Gu Xi arrived at the top of the tower and pushed open the door to his office.

It was a large office covering more than 100 Domi. The office was divided into two parts: the outer part was the actual office and laboratory, and the back part was the bedroom and study.

An oil painting depicting Gu Xi's current situation hangs on the wall behind the office.

This oil painting depicts Gu Xi standing on the Summoning Tower, summoning souls.

However, when Gu Xi came over, the Gu Xi in the oil painting even winked at his real self.

Gu Xi tried to push the oil painting aside and discovered that behind it was a world dominated by oil paint.

Only then did Gu Xi remember the name of that Oil Painting Portrait; it seemed that he had taught painting techniques.

Gu Xi didn't quite understand what painting was before, but now it seems like this is another strange space.

Gu Xi didn't want to use this kind of place to travel to and from Aryadovi City.

It's one thing to remotely control the Crow Department through oil paintings.

Connecting the oil painting to the Aryadovi City was not something Gu Xi could be so careless about.

Gu Xi shook the Special Mirror on his left hand, using it to connect with Luna's Weird Mirror Space, and at the same time issued commands to the outside world.

Soon, Life-Size Mirror, about the height of a person, was delivered.

The Weird Mirror Space also became connected with this Life-Size Mirror, opening a dedicated line from the Department Head the department office of the Mysterious Academy to the Weird Mirror Space.

After doing all this, Gu Xi pressed hard on the signature in the lower right corner of the oil painting, as instructed by the three deans, and a piece of oil paint fell into Gu Xi's hand.

[Special Oil Painting (Blue): This oil painting comes from the Mysterious Academy. It can be used to make contact with the outside world, and it also represents the identity of the Department Head the department at the Mysterious Academy.]

After thinking for a while, Gu Xi finally wrapped the Special Oil Painting around his left wrist. In this way, he now had three things wrapped around his left wrist: Special Coin, Special Mirror, and Special Oil Painting.

Looking at the long string of things on his wrist, Gu Xi couldn't help but smile.

If this continues, he'll have so many things in his hands that he won't be able to hang them all up.

After tidying everything up, Gu Xi stepped into the Life-Size Mirror.

The next instant, Gu Xi returned to the Weird Mirror Space.

At this moment, Luna had already opened a passage in this Weird Mirror Space specifically for Gu Xi, leading directly to the Council Hall of Aryadovi City.

After all, the Weird Mirror Space is still some distance from the Aryadovi City.

It's usually fine, but if you're really in a rush, it can be quite troublesome.

Now it's different. The entire process of moving from the office to the Weird Mirror Space, and then from here to the Council Hall of Aryadovi City, takes less than a minute.

Of course, Gu Xi understood that this was to protect the safety of his Aryadovi City.

After all, Aryadovi City Gu Xi's core strength, and he doesn't have complete control over it yet. Gu Xi doesn't want anything to go wrong at this time.

Upon arriving in front of the Council Hall, Gu Xi immediately spotted Luna and Shaya, who were already waiting there.

Seeing this, Gu Xi couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.

"Is the battle on Dimi's side still not over?"

"No, Grand Princess Anna said that Dimi encountered some trouble. After conquering five districts, her forces were insufficient. When attacking new districts, the areas she had already captured would be attacked."

Leaving troops to garrison the area would leave insufficient forces to attack the new district.

With this back-and-forth, the situation in the new district has almost turned into a tug-of-war.

Dimi's current situation will likely drag on for some time.

"Can we just delay it for a while?"

Gu Xi asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, sir. Dimi is capable. She has stabilized the situation. There are only two districts going back and forth, and the remaining four districts have been secured."

Now, apart from the tug-of-war in those two districts, the other districts have stabilized. Once she has gradually brought these four districts under control, she can redeploy her troops to fight again.

Although it will take longer, it won't require us to commit more troops.

Luna repeated the battle situation.

"What's Grand Princess Anna's assessment?"

When it comes to matters of combat, Gu Xi still prefers to trust Grand Princess Anna.

"Dimi has a chance of winning, but it will take a long time. Based on the current situation, it will take another two weeks to completely defeat him."

If we're in a hurry, we can send Amirka into battle.

Gu Xi thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"Forget it, let Dimi fight alone. Let's just drag it out and not put too much pressure on Dimi."

As for Amirka, he can go and watch the battle, so he can understand what kind of situation he would encounter when fighting against the Aryadovi City in other periods.

After Dimi's match is over, it'll be his turn to fight.

Luna and Dimi had a fairly good relationship, and she was visibly relieved to hear Gu Xi's arrangement.

At this moment, Gu Xi thought of something else. "By the way, I obtained a batch of corpses in the academy this time. They are of quite good quality. Shaya, you have a pretty good relationship with people in the academy. I'll open the Steel City Gate later, and you can go to the academy and have them help you transport these corpses in."

"Good!"

Shaya didn't hesitate much.

Having followed Gu Xi around the Mysterious Academy for several days, Shaya already knew how much the Mysterious Academy had provided to Aryadovi City.

Most of the functional buildings in Aryadovi City are now fully occupied.

The various undead with different skills bring Aryadovi to life.

If we bring back another batch of corpses now, it's like creating another batch of new undead.

The Aryadovi City will become even more lively then.

After explaining things clearly here, Gu Xi set off alone towards Aryadovi Tower.

Gu Xi still remembered what Grand Princess Anna had said back then.

After all Three Divine Skills reach level 4, you should specifically go find her so she can unlock the path to the hidden profession.

Now that everything has been achieved, Gu Xi naturally wants to try to reach level 5, since he has been stuck at level 4 for quite some time.

If we don't upgrade to level 5 soon, everyone will leave.

Luna and Shaya originally wanted to go along.

But they all had their own things to do, and in the end, Gu Xi rode the Evil Coffin alone to the outside of Aryadovi Tower.
