Undead Mage from a Cell

————————————

With unusual thoughts, the Octopus-headed Undead Mage removed all his equipment, pulled out the tentacles from the top of his head, and ran naked on the ground.

Once he had taken off his clothes, the back of the Octopus-headed Undead Mage was covered with eyes of various sizes.

These eyes differed widely in size and design.

In short, this guy looked odd dressed, but even stranger undressed.

After stripping himself bare, he lay on the ground, his body continuously pressing downward.

With each press, his body sank deeper into the ground.

Finally, he disappeared from this space.

Deeper underground there lay a giant heart, half missing.

The Octopus-headed Undead Mage targeted this spot.

Upon reaching the heart’s location, the Octopus-headed Undead Mage decisively extended both hands, thrusting them deeply into the larger-than-him heart.

Then countless blue filament-like tentacles came from all directions, heavily piercing into him.

While the Octopus-headed Undead Mage was doing this, Gu Xi at the Death City’s gate suddenly felt uneasy.

At this moment, the Spirit Lamp Carrier also approached Gu Xi.

Though he did not speak, his action was enough to inform Gu Xi that there was a problem with the Death City.

Gu Xi placed his hand on the Spirit Lamp Carrier’s back, observing through the lamp’s vision.

Gu Xi noticed that in the Death City before him, all visions were dispersed; it seemed the sight was omnipresent.

This situation puzzled Gu Xi for a moment.

But he quickly reacted.

Gu Xi realized that from previous battles, it was evident those octopus-heads always possessed psychic abilities.

They observed their enemies primarily through methods like mind sensing.

Their vision wasn’t as direct as humans’.

Rather, it hovered over the sky like clouds.

Though somewhat unfamiliar, Gu Xi still detected some clues within this distorted sight.

Through the Spirit Lamp’s vision, Gu Xi could feel the psychic perception’s power repeatedly and unintentionally sweeping over him.

Even under the dual protection of the Spirit Lamp and the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp, he couldn’t prevent the opponent’s surveillance.

You could say his every move was entirely under the opponent’s watch.

If it were just this, Gu Xi might not have reacted much.

This was the opponent’s territory, such a large Death City; it would be unrealistic if their Undead Mage didn’t have a bit of control.

Yet, as the psychic perception swept over him, it felt akin to a mechanical scan.

This feeling made Gu Xi significantly uneasy.

He sensed that something seemed to be brewing behind the Death City.

His opponent seemed to have one goal: keep an eye on Gu Xi, preventing him from leaving this Death City.

Reflecting on this, Gu Xi glanced back at the gate he had captured and shook his head.

Something didn’t quite add up.

The Death City’s gate was already under Gu Xi’s control.

Whether this gate opens or closes was entirely up to Gu Xi.

Even if Gu Xi deployed all his troops inside, so what?

Could the Octopus-headed Undead Mage be thinking of sealing the gate and beating the dog?

If he truly had that in mind, Gu Xi could easily demonstrate a trick of jumping out and then back in.

Hence, trapping Gu Xi and his troops inside wasn’t the Octopus-headed Undead Mage’s plan.

So, what’s his intention?

What requires his watchful eye to execute?

But what should he be observing?

He’s standing right here, inviting the enemy to attack, yet they can’t even reach him.

Hold on.

Just then, a thought flickered in Gu Xi’s mind.

If you can’t solve the problem, then solve the person causing the problem.

Gu Xi is dominating the enemy’s Death City, and his troops have already entered.

Five or six thousand Mud Undead surged forward, but their strength couldn’t match Gu Xi’s forces. Under Dominic’s command, even number-matched Undead Corps suppressed the Mud Undead.

The muddy terrain that previously stalled the Aurora Legion’s knights meant little to the infantry.

Dominic commanded his troops, advancing step by step.

They were nearing the district’s Assembly Hall.

Soon, Gu Xi could occupy this district, establishing a solid foundation to annex the Death City.

Once this district is taken over, the Death City has no chance for a comeback.

Whether to attack or defend, advance or retreat, is entirely in Gu Xi’s hands.

If the Octopus-headed Undead Mage wants a last-minute reversal, he must either find more troops to block Gu Xi’s exit or find a way to kill Gu Xi.

More troops clearly aren’t possible.

If he had strong enough forces, he would have deployed them in the distorted game world previously, instead of waiting till now.

Thus, he plans to eliminate Gu Xi directly.

And thinking of this, Gu Xi unconsciously raised his head.

Amirka had a Level 31 Cyan Knight, and the sky housed a Level 26 Ghost Dragon.

Although the Hellhound didn’t join, with these two present, unless facing an opponent above Level 25, Gu Xi shouldn’t be in danger.

Now, what method will the Octopus-headed Undead Mage use to deal with Gu Xi?

Gu Xi’s mind was full of questions, yet no answers came.

Unlike the frustrated Gu Xi, Dominic didn’t have so many thoughts.

Unlike Amirka charging forward with cavalry, Dominic’s combat style was like wall-pasting.

Wave after wave of troops, much like spreading plaster, with one wave following the next.

Initially, Amirka’s cavalry was controlled by such tactics, unable to fully unleash their strength.

Now, within the Death City’s Guardian Guard, this tactic still worked.

Gu Xi could see with a glance that Dominic’s troops had advanced further.

They occupied recently captured territory, consolidating it.

They were nearing the district’s Assembly Hall.

Unable to pinpoint the issue, Gu Xi was impressed by Dominic’s combat style.

Although Dominic’s memory had been wiped.

His combat style remained.

Perhaps he knew something.
