Undead Mage from a Cell
Chapter 821 - 819: Powerful Skills, Randomly Half Die
"Yes, personally I feel that there must be a hidden region within Yalidu City before us."
Addressing Gu Xi’s question, Mido spoke quite seriously, "I’m not just saying this for the sake of it. My pathfinding skill is very strong. When I took a look just now, I felt that the route down this path definitely leads to another four-choice path.
But once you go down this four-choice path, the situation changes. Here, a section will appear.
Normal people might accidentally overlook it, leading to the emergence of a new region.
This region won’t be too large, perhaps consisting of a large plot, a medium plot, and a small plot.
However, I personally think that if possible, it’s best to take a look there.
After all, creating such a standalone region surely isn’t just for show."
Mido’s words also piqued Gu Xi’s curiosity, "Let’s go take a look."
Just as Gu Xi finished speaking, he heard a commotion coming from the western side.
Gu Xi looked up towards the western region.
The Deceitful Shadows in the west had been cleared by Gu Xi, but he hadn’t arranged for his men to occupy it.
This caught the attention of the Deceitful Shadows in the adjacent regions, resulting in a batch of them charging out.
This Shadowy Squad, although numbering only over ten thousand, was noticeably stronger than the zombie-like squad in the western region previously.
This squad looked as if it were formed by piecing together various different creatures.
Within it, there was a centipede made of a string of people and a scorpion with multiple human heads, among others.
Their levels were all Level 5 and above, and their numbers were quite significant.
Seeing such a situation, Gu Xi decisively ordered, "You don’t need to worry about things here, go find that hidden area for me."
As he gave the order, Gu Xi raised his Illusion Magic Wand.
Under the direction of the Illusion Magic Wand, the Ghost Dragons, who hadn’t had enough of battling the Two-headed Shadow Giant Dragon, flew over.
They dove down from the sky, directly plunging into the Shadowy Squad.
Meanwhile, Gu Xi took this opportunity to contact Yong Dou, who had been stationed at the rear.
"Prepare the Mage Corps, pay attention to the enemy in front, and don’t let them break into the territory we’ve already occupied."
Upon receiving the orders, Yong Dou found that most of Gu Xi’s Magic Corps had temporarily been transferred under his command.
He understood Gu Xi’s intention immediately; Gu Xi’s request was not to attack the South District, but to protect the initially occupied region.
At the same time, his request was to safeguard all the Magic Corps.
Within Gu Xi’s forces, these Magic Corps were the most important.
If something happened to them, Gu Xi would suffer a great loss.
Yong Dou understood right away and started directing his subordinates to set up a Ritual Array, preparing for a magic ceremony, while positioning the Corpse Witch and other High Tier Magic System forces to the rear for adjustments and arrangements.
Meanwhile, Gu Xi turned to look at the two heroes beside him, Lewis and Dali.
Lewis was a Ghost Hero, but he didn’t have a clear grasp of his own strength or position.
Gu Xi had already given up on him, as Lewis was not of a high level and had less potential than Di Mi. After making one mistake, Gu Xi decided not to give him another chance.
Now Lewis had become a marginal character, doing grunt work.
As for Dali, his situation was different.
Dali was a hero with his own skills, pretty much considered a semi-combat hero.
Usually, he was in charge of strengthening the Skeleton Soldiers.
He would only be deployed when needed.
Gu Xi glanced at the current situation and decisively ordered, "Dali, take your troops and support Yong Dou, ensure his safety."
Hearing this, Dali took away more than half of Gu Xi’s Skeleton Soldiers.
As for Lewis, Gu Xi didn’t pay him any attention.
This, too, made Lewis aware of his current status; he followed distantly with a group of Ghosts, without any intention to approach and annoy Gu Xi.
Unlike his subordinate heroes, all of Gu Xi’s troops consisted of elites among elites.
Initially, Luna intended to arrange an elite troop plan for Gu Xi, but it never materialized.
Nonetheless, Gu Xi himself managed to elevate various troops.
The Ghost Dragons, carrying over sixty Ghost Dragons, were now Gu Xi’s strongest force.
Against the Deceitful Shadows below, the Ghost Dragons’ attacks were all crushing attacks.
Their attack methods involved descending from the sky, delivering a horizontal sweep against the most noticeable enemies among the Deceitful Shadows.
After killing the enemies, they would fly back into the air, preparing for the next wave of attacks.
However, the real game-changer was the Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon.
Having not seen action for a while, the Death Incarnation - Bone Dragon unleashed a Death Dragon Breath at the first opportunity.
This instance of Death Dragon Breath was not only extensive in range but also powerful.
After all, the Death Incarnation had reached Level 16 by now.
Coupled with multiple enhancements made to the Death Dragon Breath, one wave of it killed at least over two thousand Deceitful Shadows.
Then, as the light flashed on Gu Xi’s Illusion Magic Wand, a curse unexpectedly descended upon these Deceitful Shadows.
Seeing the black rainbow appear above the Deceitful Shadows’ heads, Gu Xi realized it was a luck-related curse.
Now, the Deceitful Shadows’ luck had dropped to its lowest point, reaching such extremity that they might even trip and kill themselves while walking.
Such a scenario startled Gu Xi.
With the Illusion Magic Wand in hand, it automatically used the Power of Illusion every 30 minutes.
Various blessings fell upon his subordinates, a happening Gu Xi had already grown accustomed to.
However, this curse before him, Gu Xi was witnessing for the first time, and it was his first-known ability to curse someone’s luck.
Faced with such a curse, Gu Xi certainly wouldn’t let it pass.
Now that the opponent’s luck had hit rock bottom, Gu Xi could place a bet against them.
So, Gu Xi pointed his Illusion Magic Wand towards the direction of the Deceitful Shadows.
With this point, all the Deceitful Shadows in the opposing region were locked in.
Death Luck!
Still a gambling-style skill.
Except this time, Gu Xi did it on a large scale.
This wasn’t just taking a tiny bit of health.
Unless Gu Xi’s luck was bad enough to result in an undying outcome, otherwise even killing ten percent of these Over ten thousand Deceitful Shadows would mean a thousand would perish.
In the grand arena, this was truly the ultimate killing move.
After all, the chance of failure was only one-fifth, and the rest were all gains for Gu Xi.
Since it’s all profit, be it more or less, why wouldn’t Gu Xi use it?
Thus, upon realizing the enemy’s luck had hit rock bottom, Gu Xi naturally employed this move.
Death Luck!
When the wheel stopped spinning, a random half of the enemy died!
