Upon returning to the vicinity of the Steel City Gate, Gu Xi immediately saw the corpses piled up on the ground.

With just a glance, Gu Xi knew this was Mido's style. Mido always did things in a hurry, so no matter what it was, he would pack it up and organize it so that it could be moved and left at any time.

It seems that even after leaving, Mido has not forgotten his mission.

He did this much better than Lewis.

It seems that Mido can be put to more use in the future. At least he has a clear understanding of himself and works hard as a person.

As Gu Xi pondered this, he glanced at Dali had rushed over upon receiving the news.

At this moment, Dali was surrounded by a large number of Machine Centipede.

Looking at the condition of these Machine Centipede, Gu Xi understood that Dali had found the target unit he wanted.

But thinking about it, it makes sense, since Dali's abilities are all superior to Cyborg's.

Previously, Gu Xi only thought about using Dali's abilities to strengthen the Skeleton Soldier.

Now it's different. This kind of Machine Centipede can obviously also be used, and the exoskeleton is also bone.

His abilities can also be enhanced in this regard.

Upon seeing Gu Xi, Dali immediately lowered his head.

"Grown ups."

"How's the situation? When I arrived, Mido said they had discovered a passage leading to the next underground space. Have you found the passage?"

"Yes, the passage has been discovered. We are sending people to explore it. The path inside the passage is quite complex. I have sent many people in, but we have not yet drawn the correct route."

Listening to Dali's words, Gu Xi knew the difference between Dali and Mido.

However, Gu Xi did not blame Dali for this.

Some things aren't immediately apparent, and Dali's abilities need to be assessed gradually; one can't condemn someone outright.

"So all the enemies in this underground space have been eliminated?"

"Yes, most of it had already been cleared when I arrived. I'm currently cleaning up the corners, and I've also had various supplies delivered."

Gu Xi nodded after hearing this, thankfully he was someone who was observant.

As they were talking, the various supplies that Dali had mentioned were also delivered.

When Gu Xi raised an eyebrow.

"You demolished the building?"

Gu Xi noticed that some of the things that were dismantled were clearly pre-fabricated steel pipes or water pipes.

"Yes, I found a Casting Factory in the wild behind, but it has obviously been abandoned for a long time. The Mechanical Doll outside are also the most numerous. I suspect that all the Mechanical Doll in this space were produced by this Casting Factory."

I was just over there directing the dismantling of this Casting Factory.

By the way, there are also two Metal Mine in this underground space that have been excavated.

We also found a large amount of slag, sir, you see, this is it."

Following the direction Dali pointed, Gu Xi indeed saw some fist-sized black stones being transported over.

This is the slag left over from the Casting Factory.

The quality of these items is roughly at a gray level, not even the kind of Gray Excellent Quality items.

Instead, it's the worst shade of gray.

However, Dali was quite pleased with himself, saying, "There are some metal parts here. They might not be suitable for melting down metals, but they are the finest materials for strengthening the bones of the undead."

Hearing Dali's confident words, Gu Xi didn't say anything, but he clearly indicated that now was not the time to talk about this, as the next underground space road had not yet been explored.

After being Gu Xi, Dali immediately said, "Please rest assured, sir, I will draw a map and will definitely be able to find the passage to the next underground space in the shortest possible time."

"Okay, go and get to work. Just leave the things here; someone will come and take care of them later."

Gu Xi glanced at the corpses on the ground, then said, "I will perform Summoning later. The troops here will be prioritized for your team, so send these troops out."

There's no need to worry about losses or similar issues.

At least in this world, there's nothing to worry about.

Upon hearing Gu Xi's words, Dali immediately replied, "Please rest assured, sir, I will go to the front line now. I believe that if you give me three more days, within two hours, I will be able to find the right path."

"Then go ahead."

Gu Xi waved his hand, and as Dali left, Gu Xi turned to look at the person carrying the armor beside him.

He placed his hand on the person holding the garment, and the silk thread did not break.

This means that the other party has no possibility of moving.

With this judgment, Gu Xi was already satisfied.

Once you can find the person behind the scenes, you'll have the core of this world in your hands.

As for the significance of this battle, it is for the purpose of summoning the spirits.

Standing atop the Summoning Tower once more, Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, holding the Cold Wind Staff Gu Xi. Suddenly, he turned his left hand, and Yellow Springs Dragon Robe Holder appeared before Gu Xi.

Then Gu Xi placed his left hand on the back of the person holding the armor, raised his Cold Wind Staff with his right hand, and pointed it at the neatly arranged corpses below.

"Summoning!"

This time, the Blood Banquet Book, the Book of Aberrant Understanding, and the Book of Insect Gestation appeared before Gu Xi together.

Having grown accustomed to such soul-summoning Gu Xi quickly began distributing the supplies.

"Transform all 317 spirits into Vampire to increase Vampire numbers. Transform all Mechanical Doll and Mechanical War Doll into Machine Centipede."

There are Gargoyle again; this part can be transformed into Paper Soldier.

There are also some Stone Man and stone puppets.

These things can't be transformed into Vampire, nor can they be transformed into Swarm, so we can only resort to the "Book of Aberrant Understanding".

Let me look around, a stone lion spirit, that's something I could do.

But wait, is this also considered weird?

Gu Xi flipped through the "Book of Aberrant Understanding" and finally found a direction for summoning the spirit.

Inside was a Stone Wall, and apart from the wall, there was nothing there.

Even its name is Stone Wall.

According to the Book of Aberrant Understanding, this Stone Wall has no offensive capabilities and moves very slowly, but it is quite tall.

It is obvious that this was used as a temporary city wall.

If Gu Xi had had these Stone Wall soldiers when he attacked the Earth Demon Cave, he wouldn't have rushed to have his men build city walls there.

However, Gu Xi hesitated for a moment and ultimately did not choose the Stone Wall soldiers.

Because the city of Gu Xi's Death City will next be equipped with walls, Arrow Tower, and moats.

These Stone Wall soldiers might be useful in the short term, but when it comes to actually using them, they're not really needed.

Instead, it was an even less common type of soldier that attracted Gu Xi's attention.

After selecting the type of soldier to be summoned, Gu Xi pressed his hand down heavily.

"Spiritualism!"
