Undead Mage from a Cell

Chapter 381: Chapter 379: Mysterious Books in the Well Dragon Palace

After checking the list of supplies over at the wharf warehouse, Gu Xi followed the riverbank of the pier district and arrived at the new city district, which had not yet begun construction.

Unlike other districts, all buildings here must be built on water or underwater, not on the shore.

So, apart from a whole lake of water, there’s nothing else in this district for now.

Unlike other districts, there are at least some buildings serving as backdrops.

The only indication that this district has been integrated into Yalidu City is the green-tinted river water flowing in from the pier district. Its source is from the direction of Evil Wood Lake and has been affected by the mysterious blood sacrifice, carrying a special power that can influence the entire city.

Looking at the lake surface slowly being dyed green, Gu Xi calculated that it would take about fifteen days to completely change all the lake water into that from Evil Wood Lake.

If Gu Xi wanted to construct buildings in the lake now, it wouldn’t be impossible.

But buildings constructed now would need to be infused with the water later, which would be troublesome.

So it’s better not to rush into building anything now, but wait for the water from Evil Wood Lake to completely replace the water here.

Of course, this district needs to be named, and Gu Xi can’t just call it the Dragon Palace District simply because the original land title called it the Underwater Dragon Palace.

After all, Gu Xi doesn’t have a Dragon Palace on hand.

Standing by the lakeside, Gu Xi thought for a moment, and finally pointed at the lake water starting to turn green and said, ”From now on, this place will be called the Green Lake District.”

After naming this district, Gu Xi wandered around the city again.

He glanced at the various books found in the Well Dragon Palace at the library.

These gray, white books, treated as garbage, turned out to be considered complete books in the library, instantly pushing the library’s need from a hundred books to 87 books.

As long as another 13 books are collected, Gu Xi’s library can be upgraded.

Of course, with the addition of these books from the Well Dragon Palace, the library’s collection direction shifted again, adding a new attribute.

[Library collection direction has shifted, resulting in a weekly production of 4 peas, a fairy tale character will appear in the library each week, and Dragon Blood Ink will appear inside the library (provides some enhancement when copying or learning).]

However, what Gu Xi was more concerned about was the new addition to the library’s collection, which turned out to be insights written by the Well Dragon King himself, along with some poems he wrote.

Though the poems aren’t of much use, his cultivation insights are certainly beneficial.

Gu Xi discovered that this Well Dragon King was quite insightful; after becoming something mysterious, he repeatedly used its powers to enhance his body.

Upon finding that his body could no longer be enhanced, he even cut out his soul, merged it with the strange powers, and created a clone identical to himself.

You could say he was a person with ideas and boldness.

Not only did he do this, but he was also successful twice.

The most speechless thing for Gu Xi was that after successfully creating his clone, he absorbed the clone back into his body to enhance himself further.

One could say that every bone in his body is filled with mysterious power.

Reading this, Gu Xi’s eyes lit up with an idea about the dragon body suppressed underground by the steel city gate. Although the scales and flesh of the dragon body were gone, the bones were still connected.

Previously, when Gu Xi moved the steel city gate, this dragon bone had already connected with the steel city gate.

Gu Xi had thought if the dragon bone couldn’t be moved out, he might just leave it in front of the steel city gate as a decoration.

But now it seems that the situation is not like that; the dragon bone is indeed something valuable.

It shouldn’t be wasted like this; if it cannot be dragged out from under the steel city gate, then let it be there.

With this in mind, Gu Xi quickly left the library.

But after a few steps, he turned back around, letting the undead carry the Dead Mirror Immortal toward the steel city gate.

Gu Xi’s steel city gate was built between the main city district and Yaliduvi Tower.

It was originally meant to fend off enemies coming from the Yaliduvi Tower direction.

But since Yaliduvi Tower was taken down, there haven’t been any battles, and the area has become much quieter.

When Gu Xi arrived, the steel city gate was wide open, with many undead transporting supplies towards Yaliduvi Tower.

Knowing they were transporting supplies to Yaliduvi Tower, Gu Xi paid it no mind and instead waved his hand to the sky, summoning a few crow lamps to light his path.

By now, Gu Xi had arrived at the location of the dragon bone in front of the steel city gate.

He hadn’t looked closely before, and only now did Gu Xi realize just how large the Well Dragon King he defeated was.

The part of the Well Dragon King’s body crushed under the steel city gate accounted for about a quarter of its body, and it was precisely the tail and one of the hind legs that were trapped.

The remaining part stretched over a hundred meters long, with only the head retaining some flesh, while the rest of the body had turned into white bone.

Of course, Gu Xi couldn’t be sure if the part beneath the steel city gate had turned into white bone, but from what was visible outside, the flesh was gone.

Circling the dragon bone, Gu Xi confirmed that its quality was exceptionally good.

Gu Xi even considered having the Death Incarnation bring this segment of the dragon bone to the Longgu Laboratory to be made into a Death Incarnation set.

But he ultimately suppressed that idea.

He planned to use the earth-bound spirit method to resurrect this dragon bone and let it guard the steel city gate.

Much like how Luna used a large mysterious to guard various nodes.

If the Well Dragon King’s body weren’t already trapped under the steel city gate, Gu Xi would want to move this dragon bone to the main city gate instead.

As for the Death Incarnation set, Gu Xi planned to record the Well Dragon King’s body enhancement methods and toss them into the Longgu Laboratory, the best way to strengthen a bone dragon.

If he could learn even a fraction, that would be valuable.

Placing the Dead Mirror Immortal beside the Well Dragon King’s corpse, Gu Xi did not rush into action but instead observed the Well Dragon King’s body intently on the spot.

Dragon corpses are rare, and Gu Xi even took out Dragon Steel and Dragon Blood Crystal, preparing to handle the body properly.

While handling the body, Gu Xi followed the curriculum he had learned at school for processing dragon corpses, meticulously executing the task.

Even though he wasn’t creating a bone dragon this time, Gu Xi was careful and thorough, without any sloppiness.

After about half an hour of work, Gu Xi had finally treated all the dragon bones, even carefully grooming the dragon head, except for the segment trapped beneath the steel city gate.
