"What’s the situation now?"

Upon arriving here, Gu Xi saw Mido continuously directing people to place pieces of crystals on the ground.

So, while releasing the Ghost Squad and letting White Impermanence come over to transport these crystals, Gu Xi asked Mido.

"I don’t know. As we ascended, all the red liquid brought up by the circular platform quickly began to solidify, turning into these crystals."

Mido briefly explained the situation here.

At this time, Gu Xi also noticed that each crystal, once placed on the ground, would quickly melt into the bright red lines on the ground.

The process was directly the melting of the crystal into liquid, then pouring into the underground.

"You keep an eye on this route, don’t worry about what’s happening here, just find the Assembly Hall for me."

Mido, knowing his own abilities, glanced at the direction and route of the bright red liquid on the ground and confidently replied, "Rest assured, sir, I will definitely find the Assembly Hall."

After speaking, Mido took his people and left.

As for the crystals here, with the Ghost Squad’s help, Mido didn’t need to worry about anything.

Soon, the circular platform of the elevator began moving down again.

And at this time, Gu Xi noticed that during the time the circular platform was stationary, his Ghost Squad transported at least a thousand bright red crystals.

But all the crystals placed on the ground didn’t even cover the entire room.

Watching the circular platform of the elevator go down again, Gu Xi took a few steps back, surveying the situation in front of him.

According to Gu Xi’s own judgment, the elevator shaft’s location should be a standalone high tower, but its current location was not a core part of the castle.

Under normal circumstances, this place should be somewhat remote.

This discovery worried Gu Xi a bit, fearing that the energy well in front of him was just a part of the many energy sources in Screaming Castle, which could complicate things.

If so, he would have to find ways to deal with other energy wells, lowering his chances of occupying and activating Screaming Castle.

However, at this moment, Mido suddenly returned.

"Sir, the situation is not good. There are powerful enemies blocking the way to the Assembly Hall."

"Enemies?"

Gu Xi thought for a moment and understood what was happening.

This is considered a wild city, similar to wild camps and barracks, all guarded by someone.

Even if it appears abandoned for a long time, there should still be some guards.

When Gu Xi came here before, the Vampire Knights and Twisted Blood Slaves he encountered were part of the guards.

Now that Gu Xi was aiming for the Assembly Hall, naturally, the guards within Screaming Castle would show up.

"Having enemies here is normal; it means you’ve found the correct location. We’ll head over now. Tell me, what kind of enemies are they?"

"Blood Dragons."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xi paused in his steps.

Then Gu Xi sighed, "This really is a pure vampire city."

Concerning the Blood Dragons, Gu Xi knew a bit about them.

Among the Undead Dragons, Blood Dragons are the rarest, not falling under the category of Bone Dragons, Corpse Dragons, Ghost Dragons, or even the rarer Dragon Liches.

Blood Dragons are created from the transformation of vampire and dragon corpses.

This kind of Blood Dragon possesses characteristics of both Bone Dragons and vampires, capable of inciting fear in enemies, causing them to age, and can even absorb blood to restore life during battle.

The initial idea of those who researched Blood Dragons was certainly good.

After all, the Undead side’s Bone Dragons, aside from being cheap, had lacking abilities.

In the original researcher’s idea, making up for the Bone Dragons’ lackluster capabilities with blood-absorbing attributes would enhance their combat endurance somewhat.

But the problem was, he never considered that both 8th level Blood Dragons and 8th level vampires would have vastly different life forces.

If nothing else is enhanced, the average 8th level vampire roughly has 100 to 105 life points.

While an 8th level Blood Dragon has about 250 life points.

Both vampires and Blood Dragons have a 50% blood absorption rate; a vampire needs only three times to fully replenish their life.

Whereas a Blood Dragon needs at least seven instances to completely restore its life.

Additionally, the attack and defense of Blood Dragons are not significantly better than Bone Dragons.

The condition of these Blood Dragons neither exceeds nor falls below Bone Dragons.

Even because of their high cost and rare material requirements, they became the negative example among undead species.

Gu Xi even suspected that the vampires would not prefer the presence of Blood Dragons.

But he never expected to encounter such a creature here.

Upon hearing there were Blood Dragons on the enemy’s side, Gu Xi stood up immediately.

"Where are they, how many? My Bone Dragon Corps hasn’t fully recovered yet, and in the Titan Corps, there is only one Bone Titan. It may not be easy to fight Blood Dragons."

"There are ten."

Mido, seeing Gu Xi’s worried expression, quickly informed him.

"You said how many? Then what are we waiting for, let’s head there directly."

Upon hearing there were just ten Blood Dragons, Gu Xi wondered what they were waiting for.

Waiting for the Blood Dragons to breed?

Speaking of this, Gu Xi swiftly took action. He was just about to summon the recently revived Bone Dragons and Ghost Dragons from the Main City Gate when his movements clearly paused.

"Mido, is the space where those Blood Dragons are located large enough?

Is it suitable for dragons to fight there?"

Gu Xi’s concerns weren’t unfounded.

Considering the current situation, neither the initial hall nor the corridor or staircase areas allow for giant dragons or Titans to enter.

They wouldn’t be able to spread out here, let alone engage in battle.

So, preparing to head over, Gu Xi couldn’t help but ask another question.

After all, imagining the size of ten Blood Dragons, Gu Xi could easily picture it.

"Sir, just come over and take a look, and you’ll understand the situation."

Mido wanted to explain but didn’t know how to describe the situation to Gu Xi.

In the end, he could only suggest for Gu Xi to see for himself.

With no further words for such a situation, Gu Xi could only follow Mido towards where they discovered Blood Dragons or, rather, towards where they found the Assembly Hall.

While proceeding, Gu Xi pondered in his heart.

If the Assembly Hall here can harbor ten Blood Dragons for defense, should the main Assembly Hall in Yalidu City also employ some guards?
