Chapter 737 - 735: Rapid Retreat (Bonus - , Please Subscribe)
Under Gu Xi’s urging, the Evil Coffin moved faster and faster.
The last time the Evil Coffin upgraded, a seat-like groove was left on its surface. Gu Xi lay there, inhaling the salty sea breeze, feeling the touch of the gale that no longer made his skin tingle from cold.
When the Evil Coffin flew from one cliff to another, Gu Xi even felt an urge to shout.
Luckily, Gu Xi remembered his current objective—the less attention he drew, the better.
So he kept his mouth shut the entire time, not uttering a sound no matter what happened.
It wasn’t until over four hours later, when an evil wind blew toward him, that Gu Xi finally stood up.
He did it. In half a day, he covered a journey that usually took a day and a night.
Raising his hand, Gu Xi released the Yellow Springs Dragon Robe’s Equipment Carrier. This carrier, knowing what Gu Xi intended, immediately pointed in a direction.
That was the place where the four elements of earth, water, wind, and fire were most chaotic.
Here, anomalous fluctuations could even be seen with the naked eye.
Upon arriving, Gu Xi didn’t hesitate, swiftly retracting everything around him while the prepared Boundary-Breaking Drill plunged into the ground.
As the Flame Lord said, the Boundary-Breaking Drill could easily penetrate anything.
Before Gu Xi could react, a semi-fixed Teleportation Gate appeared before him.
Gu Xi glanced back toward the Ocean Dynasty direction, where gaze was already being cast upon him.
Thus, Gu Xi took a step forward, rushing into the Teleportation Gate.
The next moment, a voice sounded in Gu Xi’s ear.
[Player 629SHD2S0FXC30, you are exiting ZFE2JDAT04HJ70 through a private method. Please note, this exit will prevent return to your original entry point. Would you like to exit this way?]
"No! I want to exit the game, also through a private method, but not through the Teleportation Gate ahead."
[Private method feasible, you can exit ZFE2JDAT04HJ70.]
With these words echoing in Gu Xi’s ear, his form began to rapidly fade.
It turned out Gu Xi was prepared all along.
There were many ways to leave this world.
He really didn’t need to leave through the method left by the Flame Lord.
Especially when he was unsure where the Teleportation Gate led, Gu Xi wouldn’t gamble with his life.
He fled here to activate the Boundary-Breaking Drill.
It was to attract others’ attention, making them think he genuinely used the Boundary-Breaking Drill to leave this world.
Actually, Gu Xi’s method of leaving was simple.
By entering the Mysterious Academy for transit, then a further dispatch from the Mysterious Academy.
Although he might not return directly to Bailian City this way, he wouldn’t end up in uncertain places, encountering unnecessary trouble.
After Gu Xi left this world via the Mysterious Academy’s method,
a blue light descended, and a large number of Water Elements and Water Giants surged forth from the vicinity.
These Water Elements, oblivious to the situation, rushed forward without concern for balance or imbalance, charging headlong.
If Gu Xi were still here, he would realize how wise his choice was.
The incoming water forces were not only numerous but also formidable.
Despite some Level 4 grunts, most of the forces were Level 7 and above, with three major groups over Level 10 and numerous Level 12 and above scattered soldiers.
Even some Level 15 units were present.
From their actions, it was clear they had been prepared for a long time.
Upon reaching, they immediately saw the vanishing Teleportation Gate.
Two Level 13 Water Element Elders acted immediately, controlling the dissipating Teleportation Gate.
Then a large number of forces began transporting various supplies, showing their intent to stabilize the Teleportation Gate.
But none of them knew that Gu Xi hadn’t left through that Teleportation Gate.
This allowed them an opportunity.
If not for the Flame Lord’s arrangements, how would these people have found the Teleportation Gate?
And yet, Gu Xi was not at his Mysterious Academy.
Upon returning to the Mysterious Academy, Gu Xi immediately requested assistance from the academy staff.
To send him to the academy’s exit Teleportation point.
Where Gu Xi first appeared when he entered the Mysterious Academy.
Since entry and exit from the Mysterious Academy relied on tickets.
There wasn’t a ’return to where you came from’ rule.
Students left their own city coordinates when choosing to leave.
As a department head of the academy, Gu Xi had the right to use these coordinates.
Gu Xi didn’t think of competing with students for positions.
He closed his eyes, made a swipe over the coordinates, and tapped.
"Send me out!"
Then Gu Xi felt a powerful force, and shortly after arriving at the Mysterious Academy, he was sent out.
As the air around him solidified for a moment, Gu Xi finally opened his eyes.
He found himself in a not-so-small city, surrounded by skyscrapers, with passersby dressed in T-shirts and shorts.
The prevailing fashion was leisure style.
Most people held some milk tea or other drinks.
Even when seeing Gu Xi’s strange attire, they didn’t gather around to watch; at most, they glanced a couple of times without showing any shock.
Clearly, Gu Xi had left the Mysterious Academy, transferred to a player city.
The people bustling on the street were all players.
Only this way would they not be surprised by Gu Xi’s appearance.
Seeing the situation, Gu Xi finally sighed in relief.
He glanced around and finally approached a player dressed as a policeman.
"Excuse me, sorry to disturb you. I had an issue with my game exit Teleportation, seems like I teleported to the wrong city. May I ask what city this is?"
The player glanced up and down at Gu Xi.
"Undead Mage? From Yin City? Kicked out during the school trial? Where’s your lead teacher?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xi’s body involuntarily trembled.
He feared he hit the jackpot.
Gu Xi had heard of Yin City.
Before Ancestor City was drawn into the depths of the Game World, it was one of the well-known cities in the real world.
He heard of it because, at Nether Bone Wind Academy, the principal always said:
One day, he would return to the real world, to Yin City’s Undead University for further studies, to learn advanced Undead Magic.
So, could this be the real world?
Impossible, right?
