——————————————————
Due to the inexplicable concession of the player, Gu Xi finally bought thirty ribs still covered with flesh.
The quality of these ribs is good, whether used in the Longgu Laboratory to nurture the Death Incarnation or in the Hundred-armed Giant Graveyard District for nurturing land, both are good choices.
But for some reason, Gu Xi always had a feeling that this player didn't want to sell ribs to him anymore, rather than not having such ribs at hand.
Afterwards, Gu Xi supplemented a batch of cheap weapons from the players, such as long spears, arrows, and swords, which were the most abundant goods in the hands of players who had just come off the battlefield.
These players are different from Gu Xi; Gu Xi has a city waiting for resources, and his demand for weapons and equipment is quite high.
These players, however, don't have much manpower, and if it weren't for this battle, they probably hadn't commanded battles of over a thousand people.
So much equipment is a waste for the players, and if they don't want to sell them in bulk to the Blacksmith Shop, finding a buyer here is most profitable.
So when the first player laid out the weapons and equipment, they all started to compete against each other.
When Gu Xi saw the weapons and equipment, their prices were just slightly above the purchase price at the Blacksmith Shop, about one-tenth to one-fifteenth of the normal price of such equipment.
In such a case, Gu Xi couldn't call it purchasing anymore; he directly entered the shopping spree mode.
As long as the quality was good, the price wasn't high, and no junk like grey broken swords or rusty knives was included, Gu Xi would decisively point and say,
"I'll take all of these."
Then the breathtaking City Gate of Death City would open, and these weapons and equipment would be swept clean and delivered to Yalidu City.
All Gu Xi paid was a bit of Negative Energy.
Gu Xi's spree all along the way eventually single-handedly drove up the price of arms transactions.
Seeing the rising prices of weapons, Gu Xi shook his head, giving up the idea of another spree, and prepared to pack up the City Gate and return to the Scattered Immortal Garden.
Just then, a voice came from afar.
"Eh, why is there a city gate here?"
"Are you dumb? That's Death City, one of the Three Divine Skills. I didn't expect a big shot to appear, let's go and have a look."
"Okay, let's go and see?"
Hearing this voice, Gu Xi knew that the players from the other two places were coming over.
Gu Xi had no intention of being a spectacle here, so he packed up the City Gate, grabbed the Cold Wind Staff, and intended to leave.
Instead of wasting time, Gu Xi thought he might as well go to Yalidu City and put the troops he had just acquired there.
Just as Gu Xi turned around, the voice from before came again.
"Hurry up, don't you see there's a buyer here? Take out the large architectural design plan we got from the last mission, it'd best to sell it to him since he has a city like Death City. Why are we all so dumb?"
Hearing this, Gu Xi paused for a moment.
He turned towards the direction from which the voice came and saw three Undead Mages, one female and two male, walking over.
It was obvious that the female Undead Mage was their leader, she wore a white Mage Robe, held a staff in one hand, and clutched a Thick-Skinned Book in the other.
From her attire, it was clear she was a Curse Magic Element Undead Mage, primarily using spells like Corpse Burst, Bone Spike, or curses as main offensive measures.
Behind her was another Undead Mage wearing heavy Scale Armor and holding a Scythe with a string of heads hanging from its blade.
He was the one commanding battles in this small group of three, although also an Undead Mage, he could also hold the front line in battle.
This type of Undead Mage existed, and there were quite a few of them, usually appearing among those controlling various Middle Tier troops.
The newly-started Undead Mages had no clue that close combat is the romance of Mages.
The last Undead Mage who followed was shorter in stature, with messy hair under his hood, and various bottles hung around his waist.
It's obvious that his path focused on poisons and plagues, or abilities like Voodoo.
This type of Undead Mage is more niche and not easy to cultivate, but their attack methods are bizarre and frightening.
Encountering a matured Voodoo Undead Mage was like falling into a huge web, with a variety of small tricks emerging one after another, making defense nearly impossible.
This combination of three was considered rare among Undead Mages.
Normally, there should be an Undead Mage specializing in blood replenishment within a team of Undead Mages.
But the team in front of him was not Gu Xi, so he had no standing to judge their situation.
At this moment, the female Undead Mage noticed Gu Xi and stepped forward to ask.
"Excuse me, was it you who opened the City Gate of Death City just now?"
Gu Xi nodded silently.
The female Undead Mage immediately spoke with interest.
"Hello, my name is Lei Pengpeng, a Level 4 Undead Mage, I have something to discuss with you."
"Gu Xi, Level 4 Undead Mage."
"I saw a City Gate behind you earlier, is it true that you possess Death City, one of the Three Divine Skills?
That means you have a city of your own, right?"
Lei Pengpeng's personality was straightforward, and her speech was like a machine gun.
As soon as she saw Gu Xi, she asked everything directly.
Gu Xi initially wanted to say, what business is this of yours.
But he finally realized that Lei Pengpeng actually had no malice; she was just used to speaking this way.
"Yes, I have a city of my own."
"That's wonderful; let me tell you, we did a mission earlier and got a large building, not just a design plan, but an actual large building that can be set on a plot of land and used.
I initially wanted to sell it to the Extreme Frozen Sea, but their price was an insult to the building's worth.
It's a large building, and they didn't even offer enough to build one.
We certainly wouldn't sell it to them, but among the Undead Mages we know, there isn't another one with a city, and they didn't want it either.
We thought of keeping it, but the attributes of this large building don't match our style.
And most importantly, we don't have the land, and if we build it in the wild, it's easy to get taken away, so it's been on hold.
Now seeing you, I feel like it's definitely the right fit for you. Take a look, there's no loss in just looking."
