——————————
After exiting that space, Gu Xi stood by the roadside of Bailian City, observing the ball of Yin Qi in front of him, which was contracting inward with a lightning effect. A trace of contemplation flashed in his eyes.
Previously, in that abandoned game space, he hadn’t felt anything out of the ordinary.
But after coming out, Gu Xi sensed that something was off.
Having lost the control of the Black Guild, coupled with the chaotic energy being poured inside, the current situation had already drawn Bailian City’s attention.
When Gu Xi exited the space, he immediately saw a Death Knight Corps with a strength around Level 10 rushing towards him from all directions of Bailian City.
Unlike those Death Knights that Gu Xi had dealt with before.
These Death Knights were at their true levels, and their equipment was meticulously prepared.
Each of them held at least one piece of Purple Equipment.
They were all wearing a robe coat on their chests, each embroidered with a special design.
A design of a white carp leaping out of the water.
Upon seeing them, Gu Xi immediately knew that this was the direct Knight Order of Bailian City, the White Knight Order.
They were elite players selected from the major game guilds of Bailian City, and they received extensive support from the city.
They could be considered one of the most elite and core forces of Bailian City.
Their status even surpassed that of the Sheriff.
Whenever something happened inside Bailian City, this White Knight Order would immediately rush over from all directions.
Upon their arrival, they naturally first noticed Gu Xi, who had just exited from the inside.
Uncertain of Gu Xi’s identity, all the Death Knights raised their weapons.
At this point, Gu Xi had already confirmed their identities.
He hurriedly said loudly, "I am the chief of this year’s class at the Nether Bone Wind Academy!"
As Gu Xi spoke, he raised the Champion Ring in his hand.
Hearing these words, the Death Knights finally lowered their weapons.
One of the Death Knights glanced at Gu Xi, then asked again.
"Just got back?"
"How did you know?"
Gu Xi was a bit puzzled.
"A new batch of students just graduated from the Nether Bone Wind Academy a couple of days ago. You are now the chief of the previous class."
Hearing this, Gu Xi’s face involuntarily twitched.
He never expected that he hadn’t even reached Level 10 yet, and a whole year had already passed.
Oh, he had wasted several months just becoming an Undead Mage, so it was fine.
"I just came back from Pei Xin City, if you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have realized it was already graduation season."
With topics to chat about and confirmed identities from Bailian City, the atmosphere here suddenly relaxed.
At this moment, the leading Death Knight curiously asked, "You were the first to arrive here, do you know what’s going on?"
"I wasn’t the first to arrive here, I came directly from inside. I just got off the train today, took a carriage from the train station, yet that guy led me on a detour."
Gu Xi began to recount his situation.
Listening to Gu Xi, the Death Knights started to laugh.
With Gu Xi’s current attire, he wasn’t too conspicuous in Pei Xin City, but in a place like Bailian City that only produced Undead Mages and Death Knights, he was a perfect target.
Tricking him into taking a detour was considered mild, with bad luck, he might be dragged into a black game to be exploited without pay.
"But later, I realized something was off. He led me to an abandoned game space where there were some entities with strange levels.
At one moment they seemed below Level 5, then suddenly appeared over Level 15.
They even had a Death Knight Corps over Level 15."
Upon hearing this, the Death Knights’ expressions quickly changed.
The leader even asked seriously.
"Is what you said true?"
"It is true."
Gu Xi thought for a moment, then stretched out his hand, and a Steel City Gate appeared behind him, from which he tossed out the corpse of a Death Knight player.
Upon seeing the corpse, the Death Knights of the White Knight Order immediately recognized something unusual.
Two of them promptly moved forward to drag the corpse aside for a thorough examination.
The leading Death Knight looked over the city gate behind Gu Xi.
"Ah, it’s Death City, no wonder you became the chief of the last class. As a graduate possessing one of the Three Divine Skills related to death, you’re quite lucky."
The Death Knight Leader immediately understood Gu Xi’s background, explaining why Gu Xi could emerge safely from such an encounter.
An individual able to carry a city with them could ensure their safety in any game.
At this moment, the two Death Knights examining the corpse suddenly spoke up.
"Captain, we’ve identified it. This corpse shows a significant level mismatch; the flesh is around Level 4, but his equipment and remaining aura indicate he reached Level 15."
"It’s clear that these are the Black Players we’ve been investigating."
"Seems like this is one of their bases. Mr. Gu, how long ago did you exit?"
The leading Death Knight glanced at the contracting limited aura area, finally asking a question.
"Less than three minutes ago, I came out when about a third of the inside had collapsed.
Going in now, the collapse inside shouldn’t cover more than half."
Upon hearing, Gu Xi immediately understood what the Death Knight Leader intended to do, so he promptly described the situation inside.
"However, when I was in there, I dismantled some things, so you might not find much in there."
Gu Xi paused, "But I must warn you, I seemed to have broken something in there, causing a large amount of chaotic energy to spill out.
If you plan to enter, it’s best to be careful."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Gu Xi finished speaking, the Death Knight Leader’s eyes lit up.
In his eyes, Gu Xi saw a ’finally caught it’ expression.
"Alright then, I understand. Mr. Gu, step aside. I’ll handle the situation here. First squad, go in first to clear the inside space.
Second, third, and fourth squads, block everyone else from approaching.
Gu Chong, check when the Mages are arriving. If they don’t come soon, we might lose our lead.
Tell them to hurry up!"
