"Where did this co from?"
Gu Xi reached out and grabbed the skull, turning it over to examine it.
"It just follows around. Wherever I go, this thing follows. One look and you can tell it’s here to monitor us."
Gu Xi casually crushed the skull and pointed to an Undead Boss.
"You, go out."
The Skeleton Boss didn’t even ask where he needed to go, he just led his subordinates outside.
Shaya imdiately understood what Gu Xi intended to do. She stepped back in front of Gu Xi and quickly disappeared before him.
In no ti, Shaya reappeared, holding another skull in her hand.
"Very strict surveillance system; any movent on our part, they arrange personnel to monitor."
"It’s okay."
Gu Xi said confidently, "We’re here because of so issues, and it seems this Mysterious Academy has run away. Every teacher here has their own ideas now.
As long as they don’t interfere with my mission, we won’t bother them."
As he spoke, Gu Xi recalled what had happened before.
When he had just left the Black-robed Skeleton, he was attacked, making him realize there were many issues in this space.
But as long as it doesn’t affect his studies, even if this space is at war, it has nothing to do with him.
He’s only here to improve himself.
He’s not here to be a savior.
Moreover, now Gu Xi doesn’t understand anything.
How could he know who’s good and who’s bad?
Which side joining would be more beneficial to him?
Without corresponding intelligence, Gu Xi won’t act recklessly.
Wouldn’t it be better to complete the task and leave early?
Gu Xi spoke casually, but Shaya was not so casual. She looked at the skull in her hand, a tacit expression on her face.
After finishing, Gu Xi closed his eyes again. Shaya didn’t think much of it and started clearing any potential surveillance nearby Gu Xi.
These flying surveillance devices that look like skulls have no combat power.
Their biggest ability is to hide themselves; if they can’t, they leave as quickly as possible.
Against those with weak perception abilities, their existence is quite useful.
But against a master like Shaya, who has a background as a thief and assassin, their abilities fall short.
Shaya just circled around Gu Xi and cleared away all the surveillance.
After completing all this, she circled around once more, checked that there were no enemies, and then left Gu Xi’s camp with her weapon.
She had promised Gu Xi to gather so intelligence, and she hadn’t done so yet.
Now that Gu Xi planned to rest here, Shaya naturally used this opportunity to go out and gather intelligence.
After leaving the area protected by the three city gates, Shaya quickly jumped onto a tree.
As an excellent assassin, besides having a natural orientation ability, she also had strong perception abilities.
Even without knowing where to go, she could find the right direction with her eyes closed.
Sotis, she could even locate hidden forces or black markets with her eyes closed.
Although the main Mysterious Academy in this space had disappeared, there were still so remnants left behind.
Shaya clearly understood what Gu Xi wanted.
Don’t cause trouble, don’t clash with any factions, and find everything that can enhance Gu Xi’s strength.
This ti was no different; besides those entities monitoring Gu Xi, Shaya had no intention of causing trouble for him.
She easily navigated through the forest, arriving at a not-too-tall shrub.
Standing before the shrub for a mont, Shaya finally trusted her judgnt. She stepped forward, took out a Bone Healing Wood stick with her left hand, and prodded the shrub.
"Excuse , is anyone there? I’m here to do business."
No sooner had Shaya spoken than the shrub quickly blood, producing a large number of green paddle-shaped fruits.
Seeing this, Shaya smiled and very precisely picked out a single fruit from the paddle, placing it into her mouth.
The next mont, Shaya appeared in a busy alleyway.
The alley around her was shrouded in obvious black mist, making it clear that the owner of this alley couldn’t compare to Madam Sha of the library.
In this alleyway, all sorts of people co and go, with so wearing black robes and scarves of different colors, while others dressed in bizarre outfits.
So were shopping, while others were setting up stalls there.
However, Shaya noticed that the goods here were always bought by one person and then sold to another.
No matter how hard they hawked, the prices of these items hardly changed.
To Shaya, it seed as if they were playing house here.
Upon seeing Shaya enter, a witch with a large nose stepped out.
Her skin was covered in blue, red, and black tattoos, so even overlapping.
"Visitor from afar, what do you desire? As you can see, everything here is fake. The sole purpose of this place is to provide a refuge for these people so they won’t get lost in ti and space.
These items can’t be taken, nor do you have a way to take them. If you buy anything here, you’ll remain here too.
So, miss, leave before you’re left behind. You can gather so of the fruits outside.
Though not much, it should help replenish so mana."
"No rush, Madam Witch. I’m just here to gather information. If there’s suitable news, I’ll compensate accordingly."
As she spoke, Shaya took out so gray-black stone-like objects.
The witch’s eyes lit up upon seeing them.
"How did you know we needed these?"
"Just a guess. Previously, when my lord summoned soone, they used the Soul Summoning Skill. I figured you’d need sothing related to souls and the undead. These are deactivated Soul Fragnts.
I think you’ll find them useful."
The Witch glanced at Shaya, saying sowhat helplessly, "You’re right, these are exactly what I need. So, what do you want to know?"
"Everything. If possible, start from this Mysterious Academy. If not, tell as much as you can. I have my own standards for judging intelligence."
Hearing Gu Xi’s words, the Witch paused for a mont before finally raising her head, "I can only speak of the part everyone knows. So things, even on pain of death, I cannot disclose."
"Alright, let’s start with that."
Shaya stretched out her hand, holding ten pieces of such gray-black stone blocks.
