Ambushed

It turns out that the big trees here had been shot down by Gu Xi's Archer Unit.

But when the undead were cleaning up the battlefield and preparing to carry the tree away for timber, this thing was uprooted and disappeared before the undead's eyes.

Even with the undead's reaction speed, they were unable to preserve the tree.

When the spirits finally struck the tree, they knocked down these Pottery Jar.

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

This is probably another player who came to learn.

However, his studies were interrupted by Gu Xi. Before he could even become a fully-fledged adult, he was beaten and almost killed.

This situation left Gu Xi somewhat helpless.

He still doesn't know who the player he accidentally injured is, let alone apologize to him.

Gu Xi, however, showed some interest in the ashes inside the jar.

He examined the Pottery Jar carefully and discovered that the inner walls of the Pottery Jar were engraved with Magic Array for gathering and Soul Condensation.

It seems this player is also on the Undead Road, but their approach is very different from Gu Xi's.

"Pack these things up and send them to Aryadovi City, so we can see what kind of Undead Spell they are learning."

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Xi finally gave the order.

If the player's corpse was accidentally injured by him, Gu Xi might still give it a proper burial.

However, this involves the Undead Road of other cities, so Gu Xi won't let it go. Taking these things back and learning some Undead Spell from other cities to improve his Undead Knowledge is still a good idea.

After all, as a mage, you can't go very far if you only practice without studying.

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

Such a good thing happened here, so Gu Xi decisively gave the order.

"Scrape the ground again for me, scrape it carefully, and see if there's anything you missed."

This time, Gu Xi was delayed here for nearly half an hour.

Only when they had truly found nothing of value did he lead his men back.

On his way back, Gu Xi kept thinking about whether he should go look for the remaining two quest items.

If we find it, should we send it to Madam Sha?

Although Madam Sha is dead, what if she is?

While Gu Xi was still hesitating, Shaya suddenly appeared in Gu Xi's path.

"Grown ups."

"So, what happened just now? Did you find out anything?"

"I found out that the fight just now was between the three remaining Department Head. The reason for the fight is still unclear, but some people speculate that one of them may want to rebuild the Mysterious Academy."

"Ha?"

Gu Xi's eyes widened. "Rebuild the Mysterious Academy?"

"It's possible that the Mysterious Academy from before has been lost in time and space and can never be found again."

Several Department Head now have the idea of rebuilding the Mysterious Academy.

However, they have always maintained a special balance with each other.

The balance has been broken, and according to my intelligence, a major battle will soon break out between them.

The final victor will take over the administration of the academy from the loser and rebuild a new, Mysterious Academy.

However, the teaching style and the curriculum of the academy will be different then.

Listening to Shaya's analysis, Gu Xi propped his face up with his hand and said, "Shaya, do you think I should go and learn the other three basic skills now?"

Then we'll wait here for the college to be rebuilt.

"Now that the Mysterious Academy has been rebuilt, will I be able to learn four more skills?"

Shaya was speechless at Gu Xi's question.

She shared so much information, yet Gu Xi didn't consider whether to participate in the academy's battles or see if he could secure a position within the Mysterious Academy.

Instead, they were considering whether they could take advantage of the Mysterious Academy.

How is Shaya supposed to explain this?

Just as Gu Xi was about to speak again, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

The next instant, the Evil Coffin suddenly darted forward, shooting more than thirty meters away.

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

Gu Xi looked back and saw a seven- Mido- long White Bone Spear stuck where he had just stood. The ground where the Long Spear had fallen was scorched black.

It's clear that if the Evil Coffin hadn't taken Gu Xi away immediately, he might already be lying in the coffin.

Gu Xi was furious at what was going on and looked up at the sky.

He discovered that a gigantic Skeleton Cavalry was staring intently at him from the sky.

This Skeleton Cavalry was about seven meters tall. He rode on the back of a Dark Blue Flame Phoenix with a wingspan of at least twenty meters, and carried three spears on his back that were about the same Long Spear as him.

Seeing this, Gu Xi knew without asking that it was this guy who attacked him.

The Long Spear was still on his back.

The explosion just now was definitely caused by the Phoenix's flames.

Looks like they're about to unleash their ultimate weapon.

Gu Xi's eyes narrowed, and the phantom of the Steel City Gate appeared behind him.

However, the one flying in the sky ignored this situation. He drew a Long Spear and pointed it at Gu Xi.

"Outsider, hand over the goods."

Forget about it.

How can anyone know what you want from this rambling, incoherent talk?

And you threw a spear right from the start, didn't you?

Is this how you ask for something?

This is clearly the prelude to murder.

Gu Xi wasn't going to put up with this guy. He didn't care that the magic he had just replenished hadn't been used up yet. He raised his hand and pointed the Cold Wind Staff upwards.

Unexpectedly, the guy upstairs was much faster than Gu Xi.

Just as Gu Xi raised his Cold Wind Staff, a Long Spear flew down from him.

"The Death Avatar!"

Boom! The Death Avatar had barely emerged from the black mist when it was pierced by the Long Spear.

In the explosion, Death Avatar was nearly killed.

"Spit him out!"

Gu Xi ordered the Death Avatar to fight to the last, while turning to look at the Skeleton Mage behind him.

"What are you all standing there for? Draw magic! Draw magic from that Phoenix!"

The Skeleton Mage then realized what was happening and quickly began to drain the mana.

Gu Xi then began pouring Magic Potion into his mouth.

Because this time Gu Xi released the Death Avatar without using any other spells, and lost a lot of Gu Xi, he dared not drink another large bottle of Magic Potion.

Now he drinks miniature Magic Potion offered by the Skeleton Mage, each bottle restoring 100 mana.

Even warrior-type professionals would find this little bit of magic power beneath them.

But it was just right for Gu Xi.

After seeing the Death Avatar unleash its Death Dragon Breath on the Deep Blue Phoenix, Gu Xi decisively raised the Cold Wind Staff once more.

"Magic Arrow!"

"The Death Avatar!"
