Abandoned Old City

Inside the Council Hall of Aryadovi City, Gu Xi sat at the map table, holding a cup of boiled water and drinking it.

The map on the desktop has completely changed. The Aryadovi City, which was originally only 0.9 square kilometers, has now become 2.15 square kilometers in size.

On some vacant building sites, markers representing various buildings have already been placed.

Gu Xi's eyes were vacant, his attention entirely focused on a corner of the map.

According to the map, the three Abandoned Laboratory are not clustered together, but are located at three edges of the Abandoned Old City District.

Each of the three laboratories has its own name. The one Gu Xi saw in the library was called the Giant Mountain Spiritual Technology Laboratory.

The map didn't show it, and Gu Xi didn't get close to it, so he didn't know the purpose of the building, nor its characteristics.

The other two laboratories are the Guli Jian Genetic Inheritance Laboratory and the Shi Xi Anomalous Object Laboratory.

As can be seen from the names of these three laboratories, their research directions are different.

Gu Xi also discovered a problem: there are many roads leading into the Abandoned Old City, but only one main street. If you enter the Abandoned Old City along the main street, no matter which direction you come from, you will definitely enter one of the three laboratories.

Is this forcing people to enter three laboratories?

What are they doing? Could there be something hidden in the lab? Just as Gu Xi was pondering this, Luna floated in from outside.

"Sir, what are you doing here?"

"Luna, you've arrived. How are things at the Dock Warehouse and the Dock Market?"

"It's already been arranged, and with our sufficient resources, we can complete the construction in just three hours."

Luna responded.

"Three hours, that's good."

Gu Xi then stood up as if he had come to his senses. "Luna, after we deal with the Dock Area, we need to deal with the Abandoned Old City District. I don't like those three laboratories. When the time comes, you can cut off those three plots of land and just abandon them."

Luna was somewhat helpless about Gu Xi's request.

"My lord, it's not that I don't want to divide the land, but my strength hasn't reached that level yet. If we give up, we'll not only have to cut off all the Abandoned Old City District that we just integrated into, but we might also have to lose some more land."

Hearing this, Gu Xi frowned.

"Is there any other way? I don't want to see these three laboratories existing on my territory."

"Have!"

Luna responded decisively to Gu Xi's request.

"This is actually a clever trick that other Death City can't do, but as you know, sir, Aryadovi City is a mirror image of Victoria City.

We could simply banish these three laboratories, just as James I.

After Luna said that, Gu Xi also began to consider the feasibility of the plan.

It must be said that Luna's idea is feasible.

However, deploying these three laboratories will definitely cause some trouble for Victoria City.

It could even cause devastating destruction in Victoria City.

Seeing Gu Xi silently weighing the pros and cons, Luna didn't try to persuade him; she knew very well what she should do.

When Gu Xi asked for his opinion, he answered honestly; when Gu Xi was thinking, she was to make any judgments.

Gu Xi quickly stood up. "Luna, you take charge of this matter. Banish those three laboratories to the outside world."

"Good!"

Luna turned around and prepared to leave.

At this moment, Gu Xi said again, "Wait, I'll have the Death Avatar help you."

Luna did not refuse. As she left the Council Hall, the Death Avatar, transformed into Bone Dragon, appeared in the open space outside the Council Hall.

When he saw Luna coming over, he even nodded to Luna.

Meanwhile, the ten Ghost were following Luna the whole time, it seems they already considered Luna their leader.

Gu Xi did not go with Luna to deal with the laboratory matters. After Luna left, Gu Xi went to the second floor of the Council Hall, stood at a higher position, and looked in the direction of the laboratory.

Gu Xi was well aware of the allure of that laboratory, and he had no intention of going there to invite trouble.

However, he was also concerned about Luna and her group, so he had no choice but to watch from afar.

Meanwhile, in the Abandoned Old City District, three Abandoned Laboratory were operating underground.

Although the laboratory has been abandoned, it will operate automatically as long as there is electricity, and it will continue to function even without researchers.

The three laboratories in front of us, because of their names, make it impossible for outsiders to tell what they are researching.

In fact, these three laboratories are one entity, and they have been studying the corpse of a powerful being who has been contained.

The Giant Mountain Spiritual Technology Laboratory, which attracted Gu Xi's attention, was studying the soul of this powerful figure, while the Guli Jian Genetic Inheritance Laboratory and the Shi Xi Anomalous Object Laboratory were respectively studying the body and weapons of this powerful figure.

At the same time, the three laboratories also share a common function: to suppress the body of this powerful individual.

The reason this city was abandoned was because one of the three laboratories malfunctioned, causing Resonance with the corpse of a powerful being.

A powerful figure who had been dead for countless years rose again and destroyed the city in one fell swoop. His body disappeared without a trace, leaving only the Abandoned Old City area.

The three laboratories still contain fragments of that powerful individual's soul, body cells, and replicas of his equipment.

Although the main body of the strong entity is gone, the remaining part is actually more dangerous.

Gu Xi's previous desire to go to the Giant Mountain Spiritual Technology Laboratory was a product of the control of Divine Power by Soul Shard.

In the other two laboratories, there were also various experimental results.

Without human control, these things are like a powder keg filled with gunpowder; the slightest spark will cause it to explode.

When Gu Xi was affected by the Divine Power, running away immediately was the right choice.

If Gu Xi had been even slightly tempted to enter the Giant Mountain Spiritual Technology Laboratory, then what happened next would have been beyond Gu Xi control.

Those experimental subjects suppressed beneath the laboratory will be released, and then the Aryadovi City Gu Xi have no choice but to be destroyed.

After all, this land deed had changed hands many times, and those who wanted to integrate the city all encountered the same trouble, and in the end had to give up the Abandoned Old City in order to minimize their losses.

At this moment, Gu Xi was unaware of this. Standing on the roof of the Council Hall, Gu Xi was staring intently in that direction, waiting for the outcome of the action.
