Undead Mage from a Cell

The White Bone Pyramid Carrier used all its energy on this blessing, so the previous protection for the Undead Corps in the city naturally disappeared.

Without the influence of the White Bone Obelisk’s shadow in the sky, the giant arm reached into Death City.

This arm grabbed underground.

At this time, the City Control Order in Gu Xi’s hand suddenly became scorching, and two tentacles popped out, trying to pierce Gu Xi’s hand.

Fortunately, Gu Xi reacted quickly, pulled it out hard with his hand, and threw the City Control Order heavily onto the ground.

As it hit the ground, the City Control Order kept twisting, seemingly wanting to fly back into Death City.

While Gu Xi was still puzzled about what was happening, the giant hand pulled out half of a heart-like object from the underground.

As this half-heart-like object was dragged out, it was still connected with some roots on the ground.

Gu Xi immediately understood that those connected to the ground were earth veins.

The half heart in front was the core of Death City.

Gu Xi immediately released the Netherworld Dragon Robe Carrier, wanting to see if he could snatch something at this time.

But upon looking through the Netherworld Dragon Robe Carrier’s perspective, Gu Xi abandoned this plan.

Previously, Gu Xi had used the Yellow Springs Dragon Robe to view the earth vein layout of Death City.

So the effect of the reverse Dragon Burial Vein had been achieved.

But this time, looking at the giant hand in the sky through the perspective of the Netherworld Dragon Robe Carrier.

All Gu Xi saw were the words "Danger".

Don’t be fooled by the single arm reaching down from the sky; Gu Xi could see many other arms waiting within the dark clouds in the sky.

As soon as Gu Xi made a move, these arms would grab down from the sky.

At the same time, a voice in his heart kept telling Gu Xi not to have any contact with those arms, not even a little.

Gu Xi didn’t know, but this was a perception after reaching a certain level, a kind of perception of danger.

At this moment, he looked up and quietly cursed to himself.

"Sly bastard."

Gu Xi had already discovered that the arm’s lifting motion was slower than when it was first put down.

Obviously, it was trying to lure Gu Xi into taking action.

Looking down at the still-twisting City Control Order on the ground, Gu Xi decisively pointed a finger.

"Gale Skill!"

A strong wind blew the City Control Order towards Death City, which was being decomposed and dragged away with half of the heart.

As the City Control Order crashed into the city.

Gu Xi’s eyes lit up, and a blinding light pierced into his eyes.

Then Gu Xi saw that behind the half-heart being dragged by the giant arm, many blood vessel-like things appeared, quickly converging into a rope, trying to drag the arm underground.

At this moment, Gu Xi also understood that his guess was correct.

Whether it is the arm or the City Control Order, the powerful forces behind them are not something he can currently handle.

If he had rushed in with the City Control Order to seize control of Death City, he would likely have been torn to pieces by the two powerful forces.

Wait a moment.

Where is my troop?

Only now did Gu Xi realize, where was his troop?

They better not have been mixed into Death City and torn apart.

These were Gu Xi’s elite troops, promising units, and secondary main force.

If they were all gone, Gu Xi would be devastated.

Only now did Gu Xi start to look around.

In the removal of the perspective of the Netherworld Dragon Robe, Gu Xi noticed most of his troops had already retreated.

Not only had Dominic and Amirka led their troops to retreat near Gu Xi, but even the Bone Dragon and four Undead units that entered Death City from the start had retreated to Gu Xi’s side.

The Conversion Undead Combat Squad scattered in twos and threes at the outermost area of the battle array, without any intention of coming closer.

Gu Xi even noticed that some of the most powerful Converted Undead were gathering to discuss something.

Seeing his troops safely retreat, Gu Xi felt slightly relieved.

Judging from the current situation, it would be impossible to take down Death City.

It would be nice to gain some experience points to elevate the troop’s level.

Fortunately, he did not end up sacrificing all of his forces.

Otherwise, he would not have known what to do.

However, Gu Xi immediately reacted.

Where is his experience pack?

The Mud Undead, which had been here and could be continuously killed by his Undead troops, where did they go?

How did the fifty to sixty thousand Mud Undead vanish so suddenly?

Gu Xi was still piecing together the situation, when the tug-of-war over the half-heart’s position in the sky reached a conclusion.

A contract made of unknown material appeared in the sky.

The contract was filled with a large amount of information and content.

At just a glance, Gu Xi felt his eyes burning, even having the urge to gouge them out.

Gu Xi immediately understood there was something wrong with this contract.

He hastily closed his eyes.

As Gu Xi lowered his head, the blood vessels around the half-heart retracted completely.

The contract explained to those behind the Death City Cluster that the previous Octopus-headed Undead Mage willingly sacrificed.

At that time, he clearly understood the sacrificial requests and rules.

He exchanged the entire Death City and all the troops in it for double the military force.

And Baphomet Altar indeed provided double the forces, even replicating a Death City identical to the original.

The Octopus-headed Undead Mage is now dead.

It was time for him to pay the price.

Apart from the soul of the Octopus-headed Undead Mage, this Death City, along with over sixty thousand Mud Undead and everything underground, belonged entirely to the Baphomet Altar.

If the Death City Cluster behind the Octopus-headed Undead Mage is not convinced, they can come and tug for a while.

To see if they can withstand the penalty clauses of the contract once activated.

The Death City Cluster was actually aiming to pull this Death City back during this time.

But considering the cost required, the Death City Cluster got cold feet.

There was no other choice.

The Octopus-headed Undead Mage willingly sacrificed, obtaining what he desired, which even time couldn’t reverse, as the contract was fulfilled.

Trying to renege might impact the entire Death City Cluster.

None of the Octopus-heads in the Death City Cluster wanted a single city affecting all Death Cities.

So, when the contract was displayed and pulling back Death City proved futile, they quickly gave up.

And after winning, the arms in the sky didn’t just retract but lingered in the sky momentarily.

Upon discovering that Gu Xi didn’t even glance their way, they retreated back into the sky, taking everything they deserved.
