Undead Mage from a Cell

Chapter 429: Chapter 427: Luna’s Return and the Orange Armor

”Luna, you’re back?”

Upon hearing the news of Luna’s return, Gu Xi immediately sought her out.

At this moment, Luna looked exhausted, but her spirits were good, and she seemed somewhat excited.

As soon as she saw Gu Xi, Luna said, ”Sir, I’ve obtained the items.”

”Don’t rush, rest a bit first. How are you? Are you injured?”

”No, I’m not injured. I left immediately at the time, and the enemy didn’t notice me. Everything went smoothly on my way back.”

While speaking, Luna also glanced at the armored ghouls by her side.

It was evident that these ghouls played a significant role along the way.

”Smooth is good. I was worried about you.”

After confirming Luna was fine, Gu Xi returned the mysterious mirror image space to Luna.

Meanwhile, Luna retrieved the three items the Upside-down Man had thrown into the Mirror Image Underground Palace.

”Sir, these were thrown in last, take a look.”

As soon as the three items were taken out, Gu Xi felt a strong aura of death rushing towards him.

In the first glance, Gu Xi saw a black stone the size of a human head; the aura of death emanated from this stone.

Besides this stone, there was also a ring and a jade-like left leg brought along.

Observing these three items, Gu Xi’s heart tensed up.

His gaze fell directly on the ring—could this be an orange armor, and what are its attributes?

With such thoughts, Gu Xi reached out and picked up the ring.

He discovered the ring was made of jade, with a lotus pattern formed by nine white fox tails engraved on it. Within the pattern, a fox’s eyes slowly opened.

[You have obtained an Orange Equipment, Fox Eye Ring]

[Fox Eye Ring (Orange, Ring, Unowned, Soul Binding possible, Binding requires fifteen days of sleep)]

[Equipped: All troops under player, Attack+1, Defense+1]

[Equipment Requirements: Intelligence 10]

[Special 1: Nine-Tails Divine Power, part of a set. Gathering all nine pieces forms the Nine-tailed Divine Power Set. Once complete, automatically master all Mind Magic spells (all at level 9). All troops under command are immune to Mind Magic influences. (Single piece does not have this effect)]

[Special 2: Mind Kill, costs 1000 mana, affects all creatures within a fifteen kilometer radius with a psychic influence, causing them to have suicidal thoughts. All affected lose 15 life points (cannot be upgraded, cannot be enhanced, unaffected by other forces)]

[Special 3: Power of the Mind, increases virtual life by 100 points, virtual mana by 200 points, all six-dimensional attributes by 3 points, all skill levels by 1 (all bonuses are virtual data, cannot grow on their own)]

[Special 4: Suppression and Purification, after equipping Orange armor, can directly activate suppression and purification effect, suppress two Purple armors (0/2), fully nullifying negative effects of Purple armor, with remaining Purple armor negative effects halved. When abandoning Purple armor, purification effect generated (negative effects reset without the need for maintenance like other Purple armor users, usage after the first time keeps effects permanent)]

[Note 1: It is said that a master once killed a Nine-tailed Fox and turned her body into a set of nine pieces of armor. Gathering all the equipment grants the full power of the Nine-tailed Fox.]

[Note 2: Orange equipment is considered indestructible decoration. To use, soul binding is required. If no longer desired, Soul-Transforming Water must be found to release soul binding.]

When the attributes of the Fox Eye Ring appeared, Gu Xi looked it over several times, up and down, back and forth, and finally confirmed: no negative effects, Orange Armor has no negative effects.

Not to mention, the four current effects are exceedingly powerful.

The final effect of the nine-piece set is to directly master all Mind Magic spells, and they are all instantly raised to the highest level, level 9.

Gu Xi deeply appreciated the power of Mind Magic when facing the Life-taking Stone.

If the Spirit Lamp had not warned Gu Xi, if Eldest Princess Anna hadn’t helped Gu Xi, he might already be dead in the White Training Grand Ceremony.

Not to mention that it can make troops immune to all Mind Magic influences.

This signifies total mastery over both offensive and defensive aspects of Mind Magic.

Putting everything else aside, collecting the nine-piece set makes even a pig a Mind Magic expert.

Then there’s Mind Kill, which is clearly a super strong ability, essentially a Death Ripple with a fifteen kilometer range, inflicting 15 damage to everyone.

Although the mana cost is high, the attack range is vast, making it a great starting move on a large battlefield.

mana might be something significant to some, but for someone like Gu Xi with high mana consumption, it’s no issue at all.

The third feature, Power of the Mind, is for boosting attributes. Although they are virtual attributes, the idea is that I believe my attributes have increased, and this can truly be utilized in combat.

The skill level +1 won’t show openly, but when Gu Xi attacks, skills will definitely function with the augmented effect.

To Gu Xi, this alone is enough.

Most importantly, the last feature suppresses all negative effects of two Purple armors; after abandoning all Purple armors, the negative effect influence stops. In anyone’s eyes, this is a divine skill.

Set bonuses, powerful abilities, attribute enhancements, suppression of Purple armors, and the lack of negative effects—if this isn’t Orange Armor, what is?

Upon seeing this, Gu Xi felt like shouting out loud.

No matter the fifteen days or not, this thing is his, absolutely soul-bound, and no one can take it away.

Bind, bind it now.

Gu Xi thought excitedly, but ultimately he restrained his excitement and processed the remaining items.

Among the components of the Nine-tails Divine Power Set, there are the Fox Eye Ring, Nine-Tailed Whip, Fox Mask, Fox Fur Coat, Fox Bone Boots, Fox Fur Cloak, Fox Spirit Shield, Fox Claw Necklace, and Fox Eye Ring.

Gu Xi already had some guesses in his heart; surely among the eight remaining Life-taking Stones, there are valuable items. But the problem is, he can’t pinpoint the world of the White Training Grand Ceremony from before.

As for the remaining Orange equipment, it’s needless to say, if Orange equipment were so easy to obtain, Bailian City wouldn’t have only three pieces in existence.

Thus, among the remaining two items, there probably won’t be an Orange equipment, but Gu Xi still wanted to see if there were any good things among them.

After setting aside the Fox Eye Ring, Gu Xi immediately checked the other two items Luna brought back.

This time, Gu Xi focused on the black stone the size of a human head.

As he picked up the stone, Gu Xi was visibly startled; the contrast was too great.

The ring just now was an Orange Armor, and now there’s gray trash; what does this mean?

[Life-taking Stone Fragment (Gray, Trash): A fragment blasted off the Life-taking Stone, has lost all power, only harboring boundless resentment and the intent of death.]
