Undead Mage from a Cell-Chapter 465 - 463: Ambushed

It turned out that the big tree here had been knocked down by Gu Xi’s subordinate archery team before.

But when the Undead were clearing the battlefield and preparing to lift this tree for wood processing, this guy suddenly uprooted it and disappeared right in front of the Undead.

With the reaction speed of the Undead, they couldn’t manage to keep that big tree.

In the end, when the Undead were attacking the big tree, they knocked these clay pots off.

Circling the tree pit, Gu Xi suddenly thought of a possibility.

This might be another player here to learn.

It’s just that his learning was interrupted by Gu Xi, he hadn’t even learned anything before getting hit, almost killed.

This situation left Gu Xi somewhat helpless.

To this day, he still does not know what the player he accidentally hurt was all about, so it’s out of the question to seek an apology.

Instead, Gu Xi developed some interest in the ashes contained in the jars.

He took a serious look at these clay pots and discovered that the inner walls of the pots were inscribed with some magic arrays related to gathering and soul condensation.

It seems that this player was also on the Undead route, but his path was quite different from Gu Xi and his group’s route.

"Clean these things up and send them to Yalidu City, see what kind of Undead Magic they are studying."

After some hesitation, Gu Xi finally ordered.

If it were the body of a player he accidentally hurt, Gu Xi might have allowed him to rest in peace.

But since this involves the Undead route of other cities, Gu Xi wouldn’t let it go. Taking these things back to learn some Undead Magic from other cities could enhance his own Undead Knowledge.

After all, as a Mage, not learning and just relying on practice doesn’t get you far.

This discovery gave Gu Xi a deeper understanding of the Mad Willow Forest before him.

Since there were good things here, Gu Xi decisively issued a command.

"Sweep the ground again, thoroughly, and see if anything was overlooked."

As a result, Gu Xi stayed here for nearly another half hour.

Until he genuinely couldn’t find anything useful, he finally led his subordinates back.

On the way back, Gu Xi kept considering whether he should look for the remaining two quest items.

If found, should he send them to Madam Sha?

Though Madam Sha is dead, but what if.

As Gu Xi was hesitating, Shaya suddenly appeared on Gu Xi’s path.

"My Lord."

"What’s the situation earlier? Did you find out anything?"

"Heard it’s among the remaining three Deans of the faculties who acted. The reason for their attack is still uncertain, but some speculate that one of them wants to rebuild the Mysterious Academy."

"Huh?"

Gu Xi’s eyes widened, "Rebuild the Mysterious Academy?"

"There is that possibility. The former Mysterious Academy had been lost in time and space, impossible to find again.

Now, each of the few remaining Deans harbors the notion of rebuilding the Mysterious Academy.

Only they had been maintaining a special balance between each other all this while.

Now the balance is disrupted. According to the intelligence I gathered, they are soon going to start a major battle amongst them.

The final victor will take over the Academy’s administrative rights from the loser and rebuild a new Mysterious Academy.

But by then the teaching style and what is taught at the Academy will change."

Listening to Shaya’s analysis, Gu Xi propped his hand against his face, "Shaya, you say if I learn the other three Basic Skills now.

Then wait for the Academy’s reconstruction here.

Will the new Mysterious Academy let me learn four more skills?"

Faced with Gu Xi’s question, Shaya was at a loss.

Despite all the intelligence she shared, Gu Xi did not pause to consider whether to join in the Academy’s battle and see if he could secure some position in the Mysterious Academy or anything like that.

Instead, he was contemplating if he could take advantage of the Mysterious Academy someway.

This left Shaya without a way to respond.

Just when Gu Xi was about to speak again, he suddenly felt a chill behind him.

In the next instant, the Evil Coffin shot forward, darting over thirty meters ahead.

Boom!

Before Gu Xi could react, he heard an explosion behind him.

Turning back, Gu Xi saw a white bone spear over seven meters long was stuck right where he stood moments ago, leaving the ground charred black.

It was clear, if the Evil Coffin hadn’t whisked Gu Xi away immediately, he might be lying in a coffin now.

What’s going on, Gu Xi was furious, he looked up towards the sky.

There he saw a gigantic bone cavalry staring at him.

This bone cavalry stood about seven meters tall, riding on the back of a ghostly blue flame phoenix with a wingspan of at least twenty meters, carrying three spears nearly his length on its back.

Looking at such a scene, Gu Xi knew without asking, it was this guy who attacked him.

The spear was still on its back.

The earlier explosion undoubtedly caught some of the phoenix’s flames.

Looks like it’s time for some major moves.

Gu Xi’s eyes narrowed as the virtual image of the Steel City Gate appeared behind him.

But the one flying in the sky paid no mind to this, pulling out a spear and pointing at Gu Xi.

"Outsider, hand over the stuff."

Hand over your sister.

With such vague words, how is one supposed to know what you’re after?

Moreover, you threw a spear right from the start, right?

Is this how you ask for something?

Clearly, this is a kill attempt.

Gu Xi wasn’t about to indulge this guy, and he didn’t care if the magic he just replenished wasn’t much consumed, he raised his hand and pointed the Cold Wind Staff upwards.

Unexpectedly, that guy up there acted faster than Gu Xi.

Just as Gu Xi lifted the Cold Wind Staff, a spear flew down.

"Death Incarnation!"

Boom!

As soon as the Death Incarnation emerged from the black mist, it was pierced by a spear.

In the explosion, the Death Incarnation lost half its life.

"Blow him up!"

Even as Gu Xi ordered the Death Incarnation for a final desperate struggle, he turned to the Skeleton Mage behind him.

"What are you waiting for, extract the magic, from that phoenix!"

Skeleton Mages snapped to action, rushing to extract magic.

Meanwhile, Gu Xi began downing Magic Potion.

This time, having directly unleashed the Death Incarnation without using other spells, Gu Xi, suffering from significant loss of Mana, dared not drink a large bottle of Magic Potion again.

Now he was consuming the Miniature Magic Potions provided by the Skeleton Mages, each restoring 100 magic.

This amount of mana is despised even by Warrior Types.

But for Gu Xi, it was just right.

Watching the Death Incarnation spew Death Dragon Breath onto the ghostly blue phoenix, Gu Xi decisively lifted the Cold Wind Staff again.

"Magic Divine Arrow!"

"Death Incarnation!"
