After handling the matters at hand, Gu Xi glanced at the time and promptly drove the Evil Coffin to the washbasin outside Yaliduwei City.
At this time, the washbasin was still the same as before, unattended, standing alone by the roadside.
When Gu Xi stepped forward to take a look, he discovered a note stuck to the basin, outlining the operation method of the washbasin.
Gu Xi understood that this was a message left by Luna.
This was deliberately left, knowing Gu Xi would use the washbasin.
After glancing at the operation method written above, Gu Xi began to swipe on the mirror surface of the washbasin.
With each swipe, the environment within the mirror would change.
But just as Luna had mentioned earlier, the mirror images from before weren’t anything good; the places he typically observed were mostly women’s restrooms, with a small portion being women’s baths or bathhouses.
In any case, there were no serious destinations. Gu Xi flipped through them for a while and needed to compare maps to select the next location to go.
This naturally slowed the speed down.
Eventually, Gu Xi finally found an empty women’s restroom.
After confirming there was no one nearby, Gu Xi swiftly dove out.
However, Gu Xi’s luck wasn’t very good. Just as he was emerging from the mirror, he felt something dripping from above his head.
Looking up, Gu Xi saw that the ceiling of the women’s restroom was taped shut with a woman’s corpse.
He had entered a crime scene.
Gu Xi thought speechlessly.
As an Undead Mage, the least of Gu Xi’s fears was such situations. A corpse? Even if you bear a grudge and want revenge, I can lend you power.
Consider the Soul Summoning Skill of an Undead Mage.
For now, prioritizing summoning a Ghost is an option.
If that’s not possible, I can help you report it to the police.
But before mentioning those useless policemen’s ability to find the culprit, how do I explain my presence in a women’s restroom?
Yet, what does it mean when your eyes suddenly widened, staring at me after I appeared?
Are you treating me as an enemy?
Or unable to find the killer for revenge, you turned into an eerie form directly?
Gu Xi felt somewhat displeased being glared at by the corpse above.
Just as Gu Xi prepared to deal with the corpse, he suddenly noticed something peculiar about the iron chain wrapped around the corpse’s wrist.
The chain was a blazing red inverse cross, resembling a hand axe.
This discovery startled Gu Xi, and he quickly assessed the situation in front of him.
A concerning suspicion emerged in his mind.
This was a Player.
She was killed by something bizarre.
Without further thought, Gu Xi pulled out the Cold Magic Staff, transformed into a pen, and twirled it in his hand. Now was not the time to hide his strength; continuing to do so would cause significant problems.
Sure enough, as soon as Gu Xi made his move, numerous yellow tapes marked with ’Under Renovation’ burst in through the nearby doors and windows.
The tapes also moved toward Gu Xi.
Gu Xi pointed the Cold Wind Staff at the ground.
"Death Ripple!"
Gu Xi didn’t know where the enemy was, but the fact that they dared to strike here indicated no one nearby would witness it.
So if not releasing a big move now, then when?
As the Death Ripple was unleashed, it pushed outward as a black ripple centered on Gu Xi.
The yellow tape, upon contacting the Death Ripple, promptly lost its power and fell to the ground.
Nevertheless, Gu Xi didn’t concern himself with these; the Death Ripple continued to spread outward, not dissipating until it reached about thirty meters beyond the opposite men’s restroom.
After this strike, Gu Xi remained vigilant, sensing that something was amiss.
Sure enough, in the next moment, the female corpse taped to the ceiling crashed to the ground.
Simultaneously, the ground began to tremble.
Gu Xi didn’t think this was caused by the corpse falling; he feared the true horror had manifested.
At this moment, Gu Xi immediately turned the handle, and the main city gate of Yaliduwei City appeared behind him.
Because the main city gate was released within the restroom, only two gateposts emerged.
But that was sufficient for Gu Xi.
Having gateposts meant the massive gate opened, and Gu Xi’s Undead Corps rushed out from the main city gate.
This time, it was the Level 2 cannon fodder units Gu Xi had captured the previous night.
The numbers weren’t vast, only about seven or eight arrived.
Upon arrival, they shielded Gu Xi and retreated toward the city gate, while two Skeletons remembered to drag the deceased female corpse back.
Just as Gu Xi was about to enter the city gate, all the restrooms’ pipes burst, spraying copious amounts of bloody water toward Gu Xi.
"This isn’t over, is it? Corpse Burst!"
Gu Xi pointed at the tape scattered on the ground.
These tapes affected by the Death Ripple were considered corpses, so using Corpse Burst on them was an ideal choice.
With Gu Xi’s one Corpse Burst,
A boom sounded from below.
All the tape on the ground exploded, and even deep cracks appeared on the floor.
Gu Xi knew now was not the time to dwell on these issues, and he entered Yaliduwei City without hesitation.
While the Undead dragged the female corpse back, Gu Xi could still see a pair of deep red eyes intensely staring at him retreating into Yaliduwei City.
Shutting the gates of Yaliduwei City, Gu Xi sat before them, gasping for breath.
He never anticipated encountering such an event.
After calming his mood, Gu Xi took out his briefcase, extracting the paper documenting eerie information, where he had already noted the eerie occurrences he encountered earlier.
