No, no, still no!

After wandering around the castle for a long time, Gu Xi still couldn't find what he was looking for.

Lin Qi's trail went cold, and he had no idea what was going on inside the castle.

Gu Xi was searching for the crowns that Lin Qi and the others were wearing.

As a result, he started from the place most likely to contain the Thorns Golden Crown and went all the way to the top floor, but he couldn't find anything that resembled the crown.

Even similar flowers or decorations could not be found.

Instead, during the search, Gu Xi found the prison cell hidden in the lower basement and released more than a thousand Skeleton that had starved to death inside.

They found the third room deep in the corridor and removed the mysterious book that was not to be read.

All that remains of the place I haven't yet visited is the square tower.

Carrying the Cold Wind Staff, Gu Xi took two steps forward. Just as he was about to push open the door leading to the tower, he felt a long Longsword slashing towards him.

Ever since using Mind Kill, Gu Xi had assumed that everyone in the castle had been affected by Mind Kill and had become neutral undead. Even if they weren't subdued, they wouldn't attack Gu Xi on their own.

Along the way, Gu Xi's vigilance had dropped to its lowest point. This time, the attack was aimed directly at Gu Xi's neck, and Gu Xi almost couldn't dodge it.

Fortunately, Gu Xi fell to the ground just as the sword was about to strike, thus dodging the blow.

Then, Gu Xi lowered his head, and a Longsword made of ice flew towards the direction from which the Longsword had been slashing.

Then, the undead who had been following Gu Xi and had started helping Gu Xi carry things dropped what they were holding and rushed towards the spot where the Longsword was coming from.

Taking the opportunity, Gu Xi got up and ran a few steps outside.

Once everything was safe, Gu Xi looked down at his own condition.

That sword strike had already torn his clothes; if he had been any slower in dodging, he might already be dead.

This situation made Gu Xi quite angry.

They were almost at the next level when this problem occurred.

Is this an attempt to make things difficult for him?

Gu Xi raised his Cold Wind Staff, ready to strike in the direction from which the Longsword had slashed.

But just as Gu Xi raised his hand, his movement clearly paused for a moment.

A necromancer with blood streaming from his eyes emerged from the shadows.

His pale face was covered with a layer of frost, and bloody tears slid down the frost, quickly freezing into ice beads.

His left hand gripped a Longsword tightly, the blade covered in Deep Blue runes.

His right hand rested on a long staff, the top of which was inlaid with a dark gem that shimmered with a Deep Blue light.

However, what truly surprised Gu Xi was not this. What was so surprising about a necromancer? Even if Gu Xi could tell at a glance that he was a player trapped in the castle, so what? Hadn't Gu Xi killed enough players already?

To Gu Xi's surprise, he recognized the necromancer's face.

This necromancer appears to have appeared in the textbooks of the Minggu Bone Wind Academy.

Gu Xi patted his head. It seemed that the title was "Life-Cutting Guide," which meant that with Longsword, one could slay life and kill Death Knight in melee combat, and with a staff, one could subdue Bone Dragon and Grim Reaper.

At level 15, he actively reactivated the Lich's Life Box ability, thus being reborn after dying in battle.

He was the necromancer who had the best chance of breaking the rules and forming the Death Knight Legion at the time.

As a result, three years after he died in battle and was reborn, he disappeared.

At the time, many believed that he was killed by the Death Knight in order to ensure the existence of the rules and to ensure that the Death Knight would never be enslaved.

Looking at the necromancer now, Gu Xi knew that he had been trapped here for who knows how many years.

Upon seeing Gu Xi looking at him, the Life-Cutting Guide grinned and roared at Gu Xi.

Gu Xi noticed that his mouth was still covered with dark red meat shreds.

Although he knew the other person's identity, Gu Xi had no intention of communicating with him amicably.

If anyone attacks him, regardless of whether he is a historical figure or not, he will die.

After identifying the target, Gu Xi Undead Tendrils at the enemy's feet.

However, this Life-Cutting Guide earned his reputation through bloodshed, and he was extremely familiar with the various methods of the undead.

Although his strength has been greatly diminished due to various reasons, and he can't even hold a sword steadily, his skills have not decreased at all.

On the contrary, because his strength had weakened, he was quite sensitive to such simple methods. With just one sword strike, he severed all the arms and tentacles that had emerged from the ground.

Then he was about to rush towards Gu Xi.

At this moment, Gu Xi flicked his hand, and the Special Mirror in his hand spun, and the Maze Devourer appeared in front of Gu Xi.

They held hands, forming a Labyrinth black hole that blocked the attacks of the Life-Cutting Guide.

Then Gu Xi raised his hand again, and the White Bone Storm was released.

However, the Life-Cutting Guide simply raised his right staff, and the gem on the staff lit up, causing all the White Bone Storm to slow down.

Counter curse?

"You can play like that?" Gu Xi only glanced at it and knew that he was definitely no match for his opponent in Undead Spell.

As for close combat, needless to say, although his swordsmanship no longer possesses the legendary super-strong attack power, it is still not something I can handle.

To deal with him, we must use other methods.

"Where's the Skeleton Mage? Come out!"

Seeing the Skeleton Mage rush out from behind Gu Xi, Life-Cutting Guide swung his Longsword and made a slashing motion.

It was obvious that he intended to cut through all the spells cast by the Skeleton Mage.

He also believed that his swordsmanship could reach that level.

But Gu Xi summoned the Skeleton Mage not to cast a spell.

"Extract Mana, draw it with all your might!"

Under Gu Xi's command, all the Skeleton Mage began to Extract Mana from the Life-Cutting Guide.

Trapped in this castle for years, the Life-Cutting Guide has survived thanks to his magic and his ability to eat corpses.

When the Skeleton Mage extracted his energy, he felt his body weaken.

Without hesitation, Gu Xi once again flicked the Special Mirror on his left hand.

Shaya, with her eyes tightly closed, rushed out from nearby.

At the same time, Gu Xi also saw Luna floating behind Shaya.

They had received Gu Xi's orders and rushed over in the shortest possible time.

As soon as she rushed out, Shaya raised her sword and slashed at the Life-Cutting Guide.

At the same time, numerous mirrors appeared beside the Life-Cutting Guide, and the overlapping figures all turned to look at Life-Cutting Guide, making it impossible for him to pinpoint Shaya's location.

They could tell how powerful the enemy was as soon as they came out. Although the enemy was already extremely weak, his level and combat experience were still there. If he didn't have any new tricks up his sleeve, Gu Xi and the others would be no match for Life-Cutting Guide.
