At Gu Xi's command, some new undead appeared before Gu Xi.

Gu Xi initially thought that after being affected by the Death Edict, the Evil Ghoul would turn into ghouls or Zombie. If that didn't work, given their chubby appearance and level 8 or above, it wasn't impossible for them to become Stitched Monster.

When these spirits appeared, Gu Xi was stunned.

Emerging from the Steel City Gate were Mud Monster of mixed green, gray, and blood red colors.

These Mud Monster are all about the height of a normal person, with round bodies, looking just like the previous Evil Ghoul.

Regardless of their color, their bodies are translucent. Standing on the outside, one can see that their bodies have been digested down to bones, with arrows and Qi Qi weapons stuck in their skin.

Judging from their appearance, Gu Xi knew they must be Undead Creature.

However, this Mud Monster is not what Gu Xi had imagined.

Just then, a huge black Mud Monster, piled up like a small mountain and five meters high, squeezed out of the Steel City Gate.

Compared to other Mud Monster, this Mud Monster in front of him looked significantly different. Its body was not translucent; no matter which angle you looked at it from, you could only see the black liquid beneath its skin.

As for inside, there was nothing there.

This thing is like an enlarged Water Balloon, but when it comes over, all the Mud Monster around it will automatically make way for it, for fear of being sucked in.

This situation also surprised Gu Xi.

However, after examining the Mud Monster, he understood what was going on.

[Bone-Eating Mud (Level 8 Summoned Unit): Experience (0/8500), Attack 25, Defense 30, Health 400, Skills: Devouring Enhancement (temporarily enhances combat power by devouring nearby items during battle), Self-Destruct (will always Self-Destruct before death, with Self-Destruct power 5 times its health)]

The ordinary Mud Monster were alright; they were normal level 8 troops. Perhaps because they died relatively quickly, most of the Evil Ghoul didn't get stimulated by the deaths of their companions to reach level 13.

However, it is also quite obvious that this is a tank unit with high defense and high health.

It can be used to replace the severely damaged Maze Devourer as a defense in front of Gu Xi.

If that doesn't work, you can release it to devour other creatures.

Although the description of Devouring Enhancement wasn't detailed enough, Gu Xi managed to find out the details using his Undead Knowledge and other sources.

This kind of Devouring Enhancement has some different variations.

If it devours flesh and blood, the Mud Monster can quickly recover its health; if it devours weapons, the Mud Monster can temporarily increase its attack and defense.

Most importantly, they can absorb some magic, and if they absorb too much, they can even imbue the Mud Monster with magical attributes.

However, the chances of that happening are quite low.

It's actually less effective than the Mud Monster that devours weapons and equipment.

As for the different colors of the Mud Monster in front of us, it's not because their attributes are different, nor because they devoured anything different when they came out. It's just for aesthetic purposes, nothing more.

On the contrary, it was that giant black Mud Monster that was the real reason why Shaya came out to inform Gu Xi this time.

[Bone-Eating Swamp (Level 13 Semi-Solidified Unit): Experience (0/100000), Attack 55, Defense 60, Health 550, Skills: Swampification (can transform into a swamp on the spot to devour enemies, covering an area of up to 10,000 square meters), Fusion (can devour all items, including soil, to grow its own body), Split (can cut its own body and transform it into Level 8 Bone-Eating Mud)]

Looking at this information, everyone can understand that this Bone-Eating Swamp cannot actually be regarded as a level 13 undead soldier.

This should be viewed as a mobile camp producing Bone-Eating Mud.

The reason Shaya specifically came out is probably because the Bone-Eating Swamp is devouring things indiscriminately in the Aryadovi City.

"Shaya, where did they first appear?"

" In the Demon Plant Zone, that big black guy is a bit out of control. Although he is suppressing his nature, wherever he stands, the ground will be automatically swallowed up."

Just that one attack has already resulted in the loss of a significant number of plants in the Demon Plant Zone.

"It seems there's some trouble ahead."

Gu Xi nodded to indicate that he understood.

This Bone-Eating Swamp is clearly a good thing, but we can't just leave it in Aryadovi City.

If this were actually left in the city, its location would probably be swallowed up in just a few days.

But it would be a waste not to bring it.

Gu Xi circled the Bone-Eating Swamp, many thoughts flashing through his mind, before finally making his decision.

"Let him eat out first. I'll think about this further before making any decisions."

As Gu Xi spoke, he pointed to the candies that were being devoured by the Evil Bone Locust.

In any case, so much candy in front of us should be enough for the Bone-Eating Swamp to devour for a while.

During this period, the Bone-Eating Swamp will not cause Gu Xi much trouble.

As for what happens after the Bone-Eating Swamp returns to Aryadovi City, Gu Xi plans to handle it in the same way.

All those candies can be transported back to Aryadovi City and spread on the ground to try and slow down the rate at which the Bone-Eating Swamp devours other things.

At the very least, we can wait until Gu Xi finds a better solution.

Shaya hadn't followed the previous battle, and she was quite surprised to see the huge pile of candy on the ground.

However, after seeing that the Bone-Eating Swamp could easily devour the candy, Shaya breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good that it can be handled."

"Well, Shaya, you've come at the right time. I need some time to move everything out of here. You can help me scout ahead and see what kind of enemies we'll encounter next."

This battle was actually fought at a somewhat unfavorable cost.

Gu Xi thought of the battle against the Evil Ghoul.

If he had known the number of enemies from the beginning, the final boss wouldn't have been so big, making the later battles so difficult.

Since Shaya was here, and Gu Xi needed to rest here for a while, he planned to have Shaya go and check the information.

At the very least, Gu Xi needs to know who his next enemy is and how many there are.

Only by Gu Xi in this way can the same problems as before be avoided.

Upon receiving Gu Xi's order, Shaya readily complied. She twisted right in front of Gu Xi, and her body vanished into the void.

Gu Xi glanced at the direction of Shaya Liyun, then paid no more attention, instead watching his subordinates move the candy around.

He also discovered that the Bone-Eating Swamp was lying where the Evil Ghoul had died, devouring their stomach contents and useless red hair.
