After leaving Yalidu City, Gu Xi sorted out the things he was carrying, picked up the Illusion Magic Wand, and headed to the train station in Pei Xin City.

Gu Xi also asked Shaya about the way to return to Bailian City.

There are two ways to return to Bailian City. One way is naturally to enter a game through a Teleportation Gate, and when exiting the game, choose to come out of Bailian City’s public Teleportation Gate.

However, there are a few issues here. When entering the game, you must go through the public Teleportation Gate.

When exiting, there must also be a passage to come out of Bailian City’s public Teleportation Gate.

If neither is available, you have to find another game to transfer.

This consumes a lot of time.

The other way is to directly take the train back.

Although the train journey takes longer, approximately seven days from Pei Xin City to Bailian City,

it is safe along the way.

Gu Xi just needs to stay calm and spend seven days on the train.

Of course, these long-haul trains are not like the crowded green trains.

Even the most basic tickets for these trains come with a large compartment with two bedrooms, a living room, and a bathroom.

If it’s a more advanced first-class seat, it even includes a small villa with a swimming pool.

Gu Xi didn’t buy a first-class seat; for him, two bedrooms, a living room, and a bathroom was already quite spacious, so he casually bought a train ticket departing today.

While choosing whether to sit by the window, Gu Xi hesitated for a moment.

With two bedrooms and a living room, does it even matter if it’s by the window?

Although puzzled, Gu Xi still chose to sit by the window.

Then there were some strange options, referring to Gu Xi’s favorite colors and styles, seemingly concerning the interior decor of the compartment?

For these, Gu Xi casually checked off a few.

After all, Gu Xi didn’t think the train could quickly arrange the style he wanted.

At most, he would get a somewhat similar style, just to make the journey more comfortable.

After buying the ticket and everything, Gu Xi entered the station to wait for the train.

Since trains now depart at fixed times, buying a ticket and adding passengers just adds another carriage.

Gu Xi chose the train closest to the departure time; he only had to wait for an hour and a half in the station.

So Gu Xi simply didn’t wander off and sat in the waiting hall to wait.

Most people in the waiting hall were players, gathering in small groups and chatting about gossip from the game.

Although the news wasn’t as profound as university research findings, there was always some odd information mixed in.

If Shaya were here, she would surely gather some info from these people.

But for Gu Xi, he didn’t have that kind of skill.

All he could do was listen to the lively discussions.

No more than that.

But using this gossip to pass the time was quite excellent.

As Gu Xi listened closely, suddenly the surrounding area quieted down.

Sensing something was amiss, Gu Xi looked around and saw a group of angel-like beings dragging a black-robed player into the station.

It was the first time Gu Xi had encountered such a situation, and he couldn’t help but curiously ask, "What’s happening?"

"You’re new here, right? Never seen anything like this before?

This clearly looks like someone being exiled from Pei Xin City, with angels escorting them, obviously caught using skills in the city, caught red-handed.

It’s not a big deal, as long as the player didn’t die, they would only be locked up for a month or two, then exiled from Pei Xin City with a ten-year entry ban.

This kind of thing happens often; usually, after one lesson, there won’t be any more trouble in Pei Xin City next time.

Of course, if they cause trouble again the first time, then too bad, they get locked up for a year, then permanently banned from Pei Xin City."

One player beside Gu Xi spoke with schadenfreude.

Other players were speculating about what the black-robed man had done.

"What do you think he did to be dragged away by angels?"

"Probably opened the Gate of Hell, aren’t angels’ enemies all Hell Demons?"

"It could be something else, from one of the cities on the bizarre path, Pei Xin City has the strictest control over the bizarre."

"Not true, if it were something truly bizarre, Pei Xin City wouldn’t let it slip out, running loose like this. I think it’s definitely an element.

Fire Element’s temper is volatile, with great power, usually it’s those from Fire Element causing trouble in Pei Xin City."

"Didn’t you notice the black robe? That’s standard attire for an Undead Mage."

"Who says so, Undead Mages also wear white, you know."

"..."

Hearing their words, Gu Xi was quite pleased, going out and hearing such gossip was truly a rare experience.

Even as the black-robed man was being dragged away, he craned his neck to see which direction he was headed.

"Did you see it?"

"Saw it, he’s on a train heading south, south is dominated by Hell, Demon Refining City, Flame Breath City are possible, and also Black Prison City."

"Black Prison City? You mean the city with demons and undead mixed together? I think it counts too."

"No it doesn’t, haven’t you heard? Black Prison City just went through a huge upheaval, the former heretic City Lord was deposed, now a Death Knight is acting as City Lord.

It seems like it’s about to turn into an Undead City."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, heard there are lots of Hell Demon items for sale there, many are rushing over to try their luck for some treasures."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xi’s heart stirred, he had a feeling the captured one might be an Undead Mage.

So he couldn’t help but look over there.

Right then, the black-robed man being dragged by the angels also lifted his head.

Having been schooled for a month or two, there was still an angry look in the black-robed man’s eyes.

He seemed to be complaining about something, as if filled with unwillingness.

As he noticed Gu Xi looking from afar, a vicious gleam suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"You will all die, you will all die?"

Gu Xi was puzzled, wondering how he could still be rebellious after being schooled by angels.

However, these trifling matters had nothing to do with him. He retracted his head and returned to the crowd, listening to gossip.

Meanwhile, the black-robed man struggled even more.

He didn’t even know why he was like this; he just felt something had been snatched from him.

This feeling triggered his struggle.

Yet no matter how he struggled, he couldn’t escape from the angels, eventually dragged to the platform to be directly stuffed into a train carriage.
