"What did you say?"
Upon hearing Eldest Princess Anna’s words, Gu Xi immediately became interested in the subsequent dungeon instance.
Of course, Gu Xi was not after any orange armor; he just wanted to experience a more advanced dungeon and assist Eldest Princess Anna, with no other intentions.
"In the subsequent instances, over sixty percent of them will have tasks related to orange armor."
Eldest Princess Anna confidently said, "I want that orange armor."
Listening to Eldest Princess Anna’s words, Gu Xi felt slightly unsettled, "How can you be so sure that there will be orange armor?"
"When I fought alongside my grandaunt against the enemy before, she lamented several times that if the opponent didn’t have a piece of orange armor, he would have long died at my grandaunt’s hands, and the fight wouldn’t have dragged into the later stages.
I wouldn’t have died three times.
So, if we can unlock the subsequent Chapter of the Westminster Cathedral major event instance, we will face the enemy my grandaunt once faced. Even if he does not possess orange armor, he will have tasks related to orange armor."
After Eldest Princess Anna’s explanation, Gu Xi lowered his head to look at the evil artifact dagger in his hand again, "I understand, I will do it, but just relying on myself won’t be enough to gather sufficient daggers.
I suddenly have an idea, and I don’t know if it can work."
Gu Xi shared his idea with Eldest Princess Anna.
Eldest Princess Anna contemplated seriously for a moment, then affirmed, "This matter is doable; due to the connection with the Mirror Image Underground Palace, the Great Monarch has a deep connection with us in Britain.
Everyone has the potential to connect with the Great Monarch; finding one or two among the leaders of those factions who are followers of the Great Monarch is really not difficult.
Sir, leave this matter to me, and I’ll handle it before we defeat the Tail King.
However, sir, you can’t stop now.
Another me in the instance is an extremely anxious existence.
Stopping will certainly arouse his suspicion."
Gu Xi understood Eldest Princess Anna’s meaning, "Alright, I’ll leave this to you. I’ll go take a look at the boss under the apple tree."
As Gu Xi spoke, he closed the Eye of the Soul, severing the link with Eldest Princess Anna.
At this moment, Eldest Princess Anna took a step back and quickly disappeared before Gu Xi.
Once Eldest Princess Anna left, Gu Xi gathered up everything here and led his subordinates into Westminster Cathedral.
As the birthplace, coronation and burial site of the British Royal Family, Westminster Cathedral’s architectural style naturally leaned towards the preferences of the British Royal Family.
The high ceilings were adorned with a large amount of gold, and ceiling murals depicted the process of Norman conqueror William invading Britain.
Presently, however, the situation within Westminster Cathedral was completely different; a thick apple tree root had lashed over from a distance, smashing half of Westminster Cathedral’s ceiling.
The root heavily pressed against the spire-backed chair before the altar, a chair historically used by kings of Britain during coronation.
Underneath this spire-backed chair lay a massive stone, which was taken by the Long-legged King Edward I from a village named Scoon, symbolizing Scotland’s royal authority.
It’s also known in Britain as the Celestial Destiny Stone.
Thus, British kings or queens often choose this place for coronation to prove their legitimate control over Scotland.
But now, in this instance, the spire-backed chair had been toppled by the apple tree root, and the Celestial Destiny Stone had been excavated.
A man whose body was halfway woodified stood on the Celestial Destiny Stone, calmly looking up at the sky, seeming like a king himself.
Gu Xi understood that, in reality, he was nothing; he had merely been influenced by the Celestial Destiny Stone and gained partial power enhancement.
In front of him were scattered soldiers, numbering around two thousand.
These soldiers were evidently the populace who entered Westminster Cathedral earlier, guards who defended the Cathedral, and priests working within it.
However, influenced by the apple tree root, they had become half-plant creatures; their skin and clothing turned into wood patterns, or their hair had sprouted leaves and apple blossoms.
Within their groups, the combination often consisted of three ordinary people plus two guards, or three ordinary people plus one guard and one priest.
Judging by the situation, the ordinary people had undergone more significant changes, being the most affected by the apple tree root.
Witnessing this scene, Gu Xi’s expression turned serious.
Actually, the enemy’s forces were not many; if it were a five-member squad, they could fight separately and clear a path toward the spire-backed chair.
However, Gu Xi focused on something else; underneath the crushed ceiling, he noticed the apple tree’s shade.
It was evident that the apple tree’s influence had reached here.
Unlike a regular five-member squad entering the instance, Gu Xi planned not to charge straight through to the throne’s location beneath the apple tree root.
He intended to eliminate all enemies in the instance.
Each additional enemy he exterminated would increase the undead population in Yalidov City.
This was, after all, all populace.
Therefore, Gu Xi’s perspective was different.
Looking at the shade protruding from the broken ceiling, Gu Xi realized the area hidden by the shade indicated the apple tree’s attack range.
Charging through and luring away all enemies would have different effects.
Gu Xi needed to treat the apple tree above as a primary enemy.
Thinking of this, a mirage of the city gate began to emerge behind Gu Xi.
This time, he unleashed the Garrison Gate, and as the gate appeared, scarecrows on top, along with the Tree Pit of the Dead before the gate, materialized on the battlefield.
Gu Xi knew very well that plant versus plant was the most suitable combat strategy.
With the appearance of the Garrison Gate, Gu Xi deployed the Soul Summoning Tower.
After arranging everything, Gu Xi issued the command.
"Full army attack!"
Sen, who had entered Westminster Cathedral ahead of time as the Evilizer, immediately charged forward leading his evilized zombies.
This movement triggered a chain reaction; the half-plant creatures wandering within Westminster Cathedral raised their heads directly, facing Evilizer Sen and his troops.
