"Is this really feasible?"

Gu Xi was startled in his heart, what he said just now was just a sudden thought.

After all, Isabella has been quite decent in her conduct and actions.

Now that he brought up this condition, Isabella agreed, and Gu Xi instead pondered the feasibility of placing the secret chamber here.

As soon as the thought flashed in his mind, Gu Xi understood that the feasibility was quite high.

Isabella’s strength is obviously very strong, and most importantly, she has considerable support.

Usually, no one would disturb her, so placing the secret chamber here would be very safe.

"It’s really feasible."

Gu Xi said to himself secretly, and immediately made up his mind.

"Isabella, this matter is feasible. Look, I have a task here to open a secret chamber at a designated location. Inside the chamber, there are treasure chests and monsters guarding them.

See if there is a suitable place to put it. After unleashing it, I’ll take the monsters and treasure chests inside, and leave the chamber behind.

Then this will be the secret chamber of my new department."

While speaking, Gu Xi took out a small knife.

This knife was the task item that Gu Xi got from Kane last time, related to the temporary task [Map Carved on the Blade].

Gu Xi has always held this small knife in his hand and has never used it.

There have been several good opportunities, such as the Well Dragon Palace, or the instance Underground Tomb, which were the most suitable places for a secret chamber to appear, but Gu Xi never used it even once.

Until now.

Looking at the small knife in Gu Xi’s hand, Isabella could also feel that this knife was of average quality, but it carried a portion of rules on its own.

It can only be used once, but it’s definitely a good thing.

Most importantly, this rule is not simple. It should be able to integrate with the surrounding environment and rules.

For example, if this knife is used on the sea, the secret chamber found is likely to be a sunken ship or a cave behind a reef.

If used in the forest, it is likely to be the internal space of a giant tree.

And at this time, Gu Xi’s hand movement paused for a moment.

After so many battles, although his level hasn’t reached Level 5, his knowledge has already improved.

The things Isabella could see, he could also see.

He now felt some regret in his heart.

But Gu Xi is not a petty person. His action just paused for a moment, then he handed the small knife to Isabella.

"Take a look, where would be more suitable to place the secret chamber?"

Seeing Gu Xi had made up his mind, Isabella was not polite.

"I happen to have a place. Come with me."

Isabella also understood that although the small knife was already in her hand, the secret chamber still needed to be opened by Gu Xi himself.

After all, this is Gu Xi’s secret chamber. If she were to open it, what if everything doesn’t count after the new academy is completed?

Under Isabella’s lead, Gu Xi entered the position behind the Blood Cloud.

At this time, he found Shaya wrapped in a large mass of blood mist, forming a blood cocoon in mid-air.

"Her condition will require at least an hour, so she won’t come down for now."

Seeing Gu Xi’s movement, Isabella immediately said.

Gu Xi nodded. He had just glanced and found that Shaya was fine and her condition was improving, so Gu Xi felt at ease.

So they continued to go deeper into the Blood Cloud.

After walking for about five or six minutes, Gu Xi noticed the ground started turning into a solid stone pavement.

Meanwhile, the Blood Cloud in the air carried a strong herbal scent.

"We’re almost there. Please be careful when we enter. It’s all blood inside, don’t touch anything recklessly."

Gu Xi also knew Isabella’s husband’s condition was not quite right, so he nodded affirmatively.

But after just a few steps, Gu Xi was stunned.

Before his eyes, a horrifying scene unfolded.

The ground that should have been stained with blood was now flowing with silver mercury and dark green potion, moving like living beings towards a certain direction, like magnets being attracted.

It was a massive pool covering more than three thousand square meters, giving off a sense of oppression.

Standing by the pool, several large cauldrons could be seen boiling some indescribable substances, with a mixture of familiar and unfamiliar smell that struck fear into the heart.

Whenever the liquid in the cauldrons reached a certain level, the cauldrons would automatically tip over, pouring the liquid into the pool, filling up the pool.

Meanwhile, a strange atmosphere surrounded the pool, seemingly hiding some unspeakable secret.

"This is it. You can’t touch the pool, but the railings around it can be used."

As Isabella spoke, she handed the small knife back to Gu Xi.

Gu Xi realized that this pool was used to protect her husband.

Isabella must have used this method to repel anything related to blood.

To ensure her husband’s body wouldn’t touch blood.

Taking a glance towards the pool, Gu Xi didn’t see the Vampire’s body, but thinking about it, he understood that Isabella treasured her husband so much that she naturally wouldn’t let the body out.

Bringing Gu Xi here already showed him a lot of respect.

Without thinking too much, Gu Xi plunged the small knife into the railing near the pool.

In the next instant, Gu Xi heard the ground vibrating, the railings moved to the sides, the pool split open, revealing a staircase below.

Gu Xi looked at Isabella, then picked up his Cold Wind Staff and walked down.

Seeing this, Isabella quickly followed, not knowing why she suddenly felt a sense of nervousness.

Following the staircase to the bottom, Gu Xi saw a room about the same size as the pool above.

In the center of the room stood a striking figure.

It was a bald-headed figure wearing a robe with yellow edges, looking somewhat eerie.

His head was a wondrous blend of bat and human, his face showcasing features of both creatures, with a pair of fangs hanging at the mouth, clearly not human.

A pair of unusually large arms compared to normal people, fingers sharp and long, exuding a hint of evil aura.

"A Vampire?"

Gu Xi did not expect the guardian to be a Vampire.

He planned to take a look at this Vampire’s status to see if it could be subdued with Death Lord skills, but Isabella rushed past him, throwing herself in front of the Vampire.

Looking at the face of the Vampire in disbelief.

"Oh my God, you’re actually standing, you’re actually standing."

The Vampire lowered his head and looked at Isabella, the fanged mouth curling into a grim smile.

The expression was quite hideous.

It was then Gu Xi realized that the temporary task, Map Carved on the Blade, seemed to have dragged Isabella’s husband, who was carved on the blade, down to serve as the secret chamber guardian.
