[Wooden Longsword (Green, Two-Handed Weapon)]

[Attack: 9]

[Equip: Power +1, Constitution +1]

[Equipment Requirements: Power 10]

[Special: Broken Bones, with a chance to shatter the enemy’s bones upon attack.]

[Description: You see, this is a sword, but it’s definitely more ruthless than your Wolf Fang Club.]

[Apple Wood Staff (Green, Two-Handed Weapon)]

[Attack: 6]

[Equip: Intelligence +1, Perception +1]

[Equipment Requirements: Intelligence 10]

[Special: Flying Leaves, capable of unleashing leaves to attack the enemy, causing around 15 damage.]

[Description: Besides being good for burning, Apple Wood actually has some uses.]

Except for the blue Evil Artifact Dagger, Gu Xi only found two pieces of equipment that didn’t look very impressive.

If these two weapons had appeared before Gu Xi reached Level 4, they would definitely be considered good weapons.

But for Gu Xi now, they really have no use.

Thinking it over, Gu Xi was planning to store these two weapons away.

Just then, Robbie, who had been doing missions outside Westminster Cathedral, arrived with the Bone-Slaying Camp.

Behind him were more than three hundred surviving civilians.

These civilians looked quite peculiar. Their gaze towards the Bone-Slaying Camp soldiers was full of gratitude, yet they dared not get too close to them.

Gu Xi glanced at them and immediately understood their thoughts.

These civilians were rescued by the Bone-Slaying Camp, naturally they were grateful, but like all living creatures, fear and caution towards the Undead are inevitable.

Though Gu Xi understood, he didn’t want to deal with such things at all.

He glanced at the civilians and then said to Robbie, "Robbie, you did well. This mission is very well completed. I’ll reward you with this Wooden Longsword."

After saying this, Gu Xi handed the Wooden Longsword he just acquired to Robbie.

Accepting the Wooden Longsword, Robbie’s eyes lit up.

As a hero of the Bone-Slaying Camp, the weapon he wielded was as ordinary as the Bone-Slaying Camp’s Two-Handed Longsword.

Even though this weapon had been reinforced multiple times by Yalidu City, and its quality was decent, it still couldn’t match some authentic weapons.

Receiving the Wooden Longsword, Robbie was quite happy. This longsword was indeed a rather good weapon for him.

After passing the Wooden Longsword to Robbie, Gu Xi then looked towards the civilians behind the Bone-Slaying Camp.

"Grand Knight, these civilians were rescued, and it’s not suitable for them to stay here. Where do you think they should be sent?"

Upon hearing Gu Xi’s words, the Grand Knight standing beside Anna had no choice but to step forward.

"Leave this matter to me. To express gratitude, here’s your reward."

The Grand Knight said this while walking towards the civilians.

At this moment, a voice rang in Gu Xi’s ear.

[You have completed the instance mission: Reinforcements in the Streets.]

[Mission Description: In the narrow streets, some ordinary people are under attack from bizarre cultists. Please rescue them.]

[Mission Requirements: Rescue 337 civilians (337/20)]

[Mission Reward: Light of the Common People (Purple).]

[Light of the Common People (Purple): A torch can be drawn on the Battle Banner representing civilian recognition. Under the influence of the Battle Banner, all your soldiers gain 30 Life.

Flame Radiance, under the influence of the Battle Banner, all your soldiers’ attacks carry an additional 2 points of flame damage.

Civilian Blessing, under the influence of the Battle Banner, all your soldiers automatically recover 6 Life every 5 seconds.]

Seeing the torch-like symbol that appeared in his hand, Gu Xi realized his harvest this time was quite decent.

Soon, he would find someone to redraw his Battle Banner and integrate this symbol into it.

After storing the [Light of the Common People], Gu Xi took another look at the Apple Wood Staff in his hand, intending to find a subordinate to gift this staff, but found no suitable target.

Ultimately, Gu Xi simply decided to store the Apple Wood Staff away and said to Robbie and Commander Lin, "You two head to the cemetery first.

I still need to sort things out here."

After hearing Gu Xi’s command, Commander Lin quickly set off, while Robbie gave Gu Xi a glance.

Gu Xi waved him off, "Go on, I’m fine here."

Gu Xi knew Robbie was worried about his safety, but he didn’t need to look up at the Black Dragon or the Red Dragon in the sky. With their presence, how could he be in any danger?

After arranging for Robbie and others to head out, Gu Xi wasn’t in a hurry to make a move but refocused on the pile of wood.

The previous Gatekeeper Kaisa was trapped in the Netherworld’s door; his corpse couldn’t be utilized.

Hence, Gu Xi had no intention to perform soul summoning to convert the corpse.

Now, Ariel, the Celestial Destiny Tree-man was different. Although his corpse was shattered into pieces, it was still there.

Especially the head, it still looked quite complete.

Though his level wasn’t very high, he was a BOSS template. Gu Xi didn’t want to miss out just like this.

So Gu Xi raised the Illusion Magic Wand and pointed at Ariel, the Celestial Destiny Tree-man’s corpse.

"Soul Summoning Skill!"

With a white light falling, the large amount of wood rose by itself, constantly assembling in front of Gu Xi.

Anna watched this spectacle and understood what Gu Xi intended to do.

But throughout this journey, Gu Xi took all the initiative. No one dared seize Gu Xi’s spoils of war.

They could only watch like this, waiting for Gu Xi to take what belonged to him before coming to clean up the battlefield.

In Anna and others’ minds, Gu Xi at most would take away the enemy’s corpses and weapons.

Gu Xi couldn’t carry away the land of Westminster Cathedral.

When Gu Xi had dealt with all enemies here, Britain could rebuild the cathedral. There was no need to compete with Gu Xi for unwanted things at this moment.

Therefore, whatever Gu Xi planned to do, Anna and the others had no intention to stop him.

Under Gu Xi’s soul summoning skill, the wooden fragments finally assembled into a wooden figure slightly over two meters tall. This wooden figure’s body was thicker than a normal human’s, with wooden planks already largely rotted.

His appearance resembled a puppet made of rotting wood.

The only part not made of wood was the stone embedded in his chest.

[Rotting Woodman (Level 9, Summoned Creature): Experience (0/4500), Attack 20, Defense 28, Life 150, Skills: Undead Creatures, Rotting Attack, Life Absorption, Celestial Destiny Defense (not affected by instant death attack effects).]
