Undead Mage from a Cell

Chapter 94: Chapter 92: The Situation in the New World (4/91)

[Game ID ULYUHDDS04CC80 world login device activated, please enter the game ID.]

[Game ID confirmed, player 629SHD2S0FXC30 welcome to your arrival. As it is your first time entering the ULYUHDDS04CC80 world, you will appear at this world’s novice spawn point, Ice Valley!]

[Note: ULYUHDDS04CC80 world is a garrison world; this world has no mainline mission.]

As Gu Xi stepped into the login device, in the next instant, a biting cold wind accompanied by a prompt sound rushed toward him.

”Quickly get out, don’t hog the login spot, later go south, and get your... Hmm, why didn’t you bring troops with you?”

Gu Xi then realized, he glanced at the person who was talking; he could feel that he was also an undead mage player, except he was wrapped in thick white cotton clothes, bundled up like a ball.

Behind him stood a three-meter-tall giant beast, covered in white fur, resembling a magnified gorilla, with its hands like pillars supporting the ground, and a pair of curved horns on its head.

At the same time, the giant beast’s eyes were ice blue, and Gu Xi could tell at a glance that this beast had undergone undead transformation, with a strength around Level 7.

”Oh, my troops are in my city.”

After being asked a couple of questions, Gu Xi finally reacted and quickly made way from where he was standing.

”Your city? Don’t you know what’s going on right now? You left your troops in the city, so why did you come here? Do you know that the situation here is quite dangerous and urgent?”

”I know, I accepted a mission to come here. Don’t worry, I never fight unprepared. By the way, your clothes are nice; is it colder outside, and are there more clothes like these?”

”You’re overthinking it. This outfit I collected bit by bit from yeti fur to make. If you want, there’s a Yeti Valley to the north, and there you’d find plenty of yetis.”

”Sorry, I don’t have time right now. I need to send troops to the Scattered Immortal Garden; do you have a more detailed map?”

”Scattered Immortal Garden?” The undead mage gave Gu Xi a look, ”Just you? What level are you, and you didn’t bring a single troop. What could you do there?”

Gu Xi did not explain but stood upright, and the shadow of the city gate appeared behind him.

As an undead mage, most are aware of the situation regarding the three divine skills; seeing Gu Xi’s action, he knew what it was about.

”Using the Three Divine Skills to transport troops, it seems the guild has invested heavily this time. I have the map you need, but you must be careful. There’s a problem in this world; the paths won’t change, but the enemies on them might differ.

In our world, players are capped at Level 5, heroes at Level 7, and soldiers at Level 9.

If you exceed these levels, you’ll be repelled by this world, resulting in decreased combat experience and even reduced attack power.

But the situation with the current enemies is different; their troops include ones at Level 11, along with heroes at Level 9 and bosses at Level 10.

They are currently roaming this world, and we can’t confirm where they will appear.

So be extra cautious when you set off, and if you have scout-type troops, send them out in advance, don’t charge into the enemy’s main camp blindly.”

”Don’t worry, I’m always very cautious. Are there any other areas in this world where we shouldn’t wander? What’s the current situation with these enemies? Please tell me in detail.”

”There’s not much to say, these enemies suddenly appeared from the west of the world. Initially, their numbers weren’t many, and we thought it was just the normal Night Parade of Hundred Demons.

It was only later that we realized something was wrong, but it was already too late. The parade’s level rose to the Yin Soldiers Borrowing Passage level, and many areas had their food and resources stolen.

The players stationed here sent out all their troops to retrieve resources.

As a result, the situation escalated and the enemies grew stronger. Now, except for a few key cities, wild territories are out of control.

So in the upcoming period, the main battles will be between the arriving players and these undead.

Your case is relatively special; the pressure on the Scattered Immortal Garden isn’t too high. If you could get troops there, it would also be beneficial for us.”

Upon understanding the current world situation, Gu Xi also grasped the guild leader’s thoughts.

This world must definitely be reclaimed.

In situations where stronger players and heroes cannot enter this world, sending in masses of ordinary players is the best option.

To ensure the ordinary players have sufficient combat power, every player who enters here will receive some troop support.

They will also engage in small battles according to their level.

Don’t underestimate the genius of an undead mage; though the support troops might not be plentiful, as long as they can survive the battlefield, their forces will only keep growing.

Like the rarity of creatures without bodies, such as the Deceitful Shadow that Gu Xi encountered in Yalidu City.

It was because of his possession of one of the Three Divine Skills, Death City, that he was assigned a new task.

Otherwise, he would have been fated to fight small monsters near Ice Valley.

Understanding everything here, Gu Xi quickly grabbed the map and prepared to leave the city.

As for the undead soldiers in Ice Valley, Gu Xi didn’t even consider them.

Those undead require money, and Gu Xi didn’t have enough resources in hand.

Even though he was tempted by some of the undead species in the valley, he ultimately gave up on recruiting another batch of soldiers there.

Upon summoning the Evil Coffin, Gu Xi swiftly mounted it.

Soon, a layer of black mist surrounded the coffin, lifting it about 1.5 meters off the ground.

Sitting on the coffin lid, Gu Xi could clearly feel someone knocking on the coffin from underneath.

Feeling speechless about this, Gu Xi wondered how this could be considered a good mount and mused about what people were thinking.

While grumbling internally, Gu Xi tried tapping the coffin lid.

Soon, Gu Xi understood the method to control the coffin’s movement.

To make it move left, tap on the left; to make it move right, tap on the right.

Concerns about the coffin bumping into things were unnecessary, as the coffin would automatically adjust direction when no major directional mistakes were made.

As Gu Xi rode the Evil Coffin around Ice Valley, he realized he couldn’t withstand the cold wind blowing as he sat on the coffin. So he purchased a thick quilt in Ice Valley to wrap himself up and hung his Battle Banner on the front of the coffin.

Only then did he ride the Evil Coffin out of Ice Valley, venturing into the world’s wilderness.
