Undead Mage from a Cell

Chapter 380: Chapter 378: Wrapping Up the Mysterious Mirror Image Space (146/185)

Luna and her team were not surprised by Gu Xi’s decision to limit other players’ access to this place to only two hours a day, after which they had to leave.

After all, Gu Xi had brought out his Death City.

For an Undead Mage, Death City is the most closely guarded secret.

Gu Xi was generous enough to carve out an open space for them.

If it were them, they wouldn’t have made such a choice.

So the players didn’t say much and took the symbols from Gu Xi for entering and exiting the Mysterious Mirror Image Space before leaving.

After sending all the players away, Gu Xi turned to look at Luna.

”There should be three days left; for the next three days, come over for two hours each day to keep an eye on things. If there’s anything useful for Yalidu City, you can take it directly.”

Luna shook her head, ”No need for me to watch over it. The small spirits previously killed can handle this. Like that washstand in the wilderness before, these small spirits are sufficient; I don’t need to keep a special watch here.”

Gu Xi was surprised and quickly asked about Luna’s condition.

Learning that the major spirits he had dealt with at over a dozen nodes would revive in the Mysterious Mirror Image Space and return to their original locations to become guardians under Luna’s command, Gu Xi’s eyes lit up.

”This is great news, Luna. This could become your stronghold in the future.”

”Yeah, I didn’t expect it to turn out like this either.”

Luna was quite happy. She hadn’t anticipated that the major spirits she killed would have the chance to be resurrected as her subordinates.

Luna had experienced the power of these major spirits firsthand.

She had brought all the troops from Yalidu City to capture this Mysterious Mirror Image Space.

Once these major spirits are revived, it’s like Gu Xi gained a powerful force of strange spirits. Although this force isn’t undead, they are under Luna’s command with extremely mysterious battle styles and formidable combat power.

This adds another extra force for Gu Xi, providing a greater guarantee in future battles.

”So, you can handle things here. As for the Energy Treasure Pearl, I’ll think of a way to see if we can turn this temporary base into a permanent one.

Also, will the absence of the Well Dragon Palace affect your Mysterious Mirror Image Space, do you need me to add it back?”

”No need, the absence of the Well Dragon Palace is just right. The missing part acts as a passageway to Yalidu City. If we add the Well Dragon Palace, we won’t be able to connect with Yalidu City. To get there, we’d have to go through the well and then the sewer and the Well Dragon Palace.”

”Alright, you handle things here. By the way, we’re preparing to kill the spirits in large quantities. Do you have any requests?”

Gu Xi doesn’t plan to waste the remaining three days.

He has already thought it through, with such an excellent place as the Mysterious Mirror Image Space, it’s only natural to make good use of it.

He plans to lead the army at night to sweep through the demons, gathering various intelligence, and rest during the day, using the intelligence to capture spirits and bring them to the Mysterious Mirror Image Space for a kill.

If Luna has any needs, Gu Xi will prioritize her requests.

But Luna doesn’t have any specific needs now. The situation at the Mysterious Mirror Image Space is more or less fixed; other spirits’ life cannot strengthen it anymore.

After all, the mysterious rules related to the mirror are limited, capturing new spirits wouldn’t correlate with the mirror, and forcibly integrating them would instead affect her control over the Mysterious Mirror Image Space.

As for Yalidu City, killing spirits would only yield some special corpses. At most, as per the intelligence rules, Gu Xi kills them, and these spirits won’t resurrect.

Such corpses have little impact on Gu Xi.

Other Undead Mages might think of using these corpses to create Contracted Undead, hoping to gain some mysterious power.

But for Gu Xi, it’s better to clear the demons in the wild every night, greatly supplementing the forces for Yalidu City.

So, seeing that Luna had no requests, Gu Xi didn’t push further, just adjusted his schedule, preparing for nighttime battles and treasure hunting and resting during the day.

Gu Xi’s first target is simple, Maple Leaf Park near the Wudou Family and the abandoned school named Yi Head.

As for slightly more ambitious plans, it depends on whether Gu Xi can encounter Level 10 or so Great Demons or major spirits. If he can, then he’ll engage; if not, he won’t go looking for trouble himself.

Gu Xi knows well that he’s already drawn enough attention, and making any more waves would invite jealousy.

It’s best not to stand out too much now, as long as he maintains an acceptable presence, he will likely secure the top position in this major event without needing to overdo things unnecessarily.

Having this clear in mind, Gu Xi left the Mysterious Mirror Image Space.

Upon returning to Yalidu City, Gu Xi asked Luna.

”Luna, can the mirror passageways in the Mysterious Mirror Image Space, which allow for quick movement, be used in Yalidu City?”

”No, that’s not possible; that requires Yalidu City to have both mirror and mysterious attributes. Yalidu City, although opposed to the Mirror Image Underground Palace, was originally a copied city by someone else.

This fundamentally isn’t suitable for such an approach.”

Hearing this, Gu Xi could only reluctantly give up on the idea.

However, when Luna mentioned the city’s attributes, Gu Xi remembered something.

The Black Queen left Gu Xi with a drop of True Queen’s Blood when she departed.

This corresponds to the quest ”The Headless Queen’s Resentment”.

Gu Xi remembers that the quest rewards city traits.

Although he’s unsure if the rewards are random or not, strengthening the city is definitely good.

Gu Xi decided to clear up his temporary tasks during this period to avoid too many tasks piling up and weakening the final rewards.

As for where to get the necessary items for the tasks, Gu Xi might have worried about it before.

But now it’s different, with so many players trading, as long as Gu Xi offers a good price, he’ll soon find what he needs.

Thinking about this, Gu Xi headed towards the Pier District, taking the Evil Coffin.

He had two things to do here: naturally, check the Wharf Warehouse to see the harvest over the period and if he missed anything good.

On the other hand, Gu Xi wanted to check out the newly integrated city district. After all, Gu Xi also wanted to know what this new city on the water and under the water would be like.
