The eyes of the corpse on the ground slowly opened, but the pupils inside were gone.

After a few moments, there was a glimmer of light in the pupils of his eyes, but it shone red, like a tiny flame.

"Are you alive......" Gu Xin opened his mouth and made a breath movement, but he didn't exhale any breath.

This made him a little distracted, and it took him a while to finally remember everything.

"What a hate! It was actually attacked by that thief...... And he was forced to use the magic of undead transformation......" Gu Xin touched the ring on his index finger with a look of resentment, the black gem that had been set on the ring had become dull.

That ring had an undead transformation spell on it, which could transform the living into the undead.

Its effect is equivalent to a simplified version of the Lich Transformation Ritual, although it can also transform itself into an undead, but it does not have a Lich's life box, and there is no growth in the future, and it is almost destined to become a low-level necromancer.

"Damn thief, I will never let you go!" After realizing that his future was hopeless, Gu Xin's heart was already extremely resentful, and he wanted to devour his flesh and blood immediately.

With his status and contributions, he has already reached the standard of becoming a lich, but because he needs to walk in human society, he does not hold a lich transformation ceremony, and only after the huge plan begins, he will go to the north to transform into a powerful lich.

However, now he was unexpectedly killed by a lowly thief who he didn't look down on at all, so that he could only use ordinary undead transformation magic in a hurry at the last moment, and lost the chance to be promoted forever.

"No, that guy is frivolous in his steps, he is an ordinary thief with little power, and it is absolutely impossible to pierce my magic shield directly, unless it is ......" Gusin suddenly thought of an important question, while carefully recalling the short but humiliating battle before.

Mages are powerful and fragile at the same time, so from the moment they are born, there are constantly people studying all kinds of magical shields, whether it is water, fire or arcane, they all have powerful shield magic.

Gu Xin has been fighting for a long time, so he naturally knows the importance of the magic shield, so he only approached the thief after opening the magic shield before, but someone directly broke the magic shield in an instant, which made him always hard to believe.

"Unless...... That dagger of his is a legendary dragon tooth that naturally has demon-breaking properties! Although Gu Xin was talking to himself, the red light in his eyes was getting brighter and brighter.

The mages naturally know that the dragons are real, but even the well-informed mages rarely see the real dragons, and the information about the dragons is more in some legends, and the dagger made of the black dragon's tooth is one of the legends.

"It's normal to be defeated under the dragon's teeth...... If I can snatch the dragon's tooth dagger from the thief's hand, then the master may give me even more strength because of my contributions! When he finally had a new hope, Gusin's expression began to reinvigorate.

"Yes...... The thief must not have gone far, probably not yet escaped Dunhold, and must be caught! Thinking of this, Gu Xin's throat couldn't help but let out a hoarse roar, it was the bloodthirsty voice unique to the undead!

At that moment, the sound of messy footsteps came from outside, and two soldiers with frightened faces ran in, one of them still in syndicate attire.

"Master Gusin, the attack of the orcs is very fierce, the general is almost unable to withstand it, and ask the master to save Dunhold!" The two soldiers were unaware of Gusin's anomaly.

In fact, since the transformation of the undead has only just begun, he is not much different from ordinary people at the moment, and only after a period of time, his muscles and joints will become stiff.

"Hmph...... Incompetent guys. Gusin muttered under his breath, and then habitually stretched out his hand, and the familiar staff had already jumped into his hand automatically.

However, he soon noticed that there was something unusual about the staff in his hand, and it seemed to be ...... It's a lot lighter.

When he found out that the huge magic gem at the top of the staff was missing, Gu Xin couldn't bear it anymore and scolded on the spot.

Even when he came to the battlefield where the battle was raging outside, his face was still full of iron.

"Master Gu Xin, you are finally here, the attack of those orcs is too fierce, and they actually knocked down a section of the city wall with cavalry, my subordinates really can't withstand it, and please follow our previous agreement." Edras Blackmore was tall, but at the moment he had to bow his head.

The attacks of those orcs were surprisingly powerful, and of course what surprised him even more was the number of them.

"How many people have died?" Gu Xin asked lightly.

"At least four or five thousand soldiers have died, the orcs...... Nearly 1,000 people must have died. Edras Blackmore's voice grew lower.

It is a shame in any battle to lose more than half of your own side, while your opponent loses less than a fifth of your own, especially if the orcs are still the besieging side!

If he were to fight in the field on the plains, I am afraid that the nearly 10,000 troops under his command would be dead, and those orcs would not be able to lose a few.

"It's not enough, wait until another two thousand people die and come back to me." Gu Xin said coldly.

The emotionless voice sent chills down the hearts of everyone around him...... Human life is just a number in this guy's mouth.

However, no one dared to say anything in front of this cold mage, after all, almost all hope was on him.

"Owen, that thief is in the city now, you should immediately bring someone to find him, and be sure to get him back." After a moment's pause, Gusin looked at Owen, who was standing next to Edras Blackmore.

"That thief is in town? How is this possible, he also followed those orcs to kill in? Owen immediately looked surprised.

"No, he entered the city one step earlier than those orcs, it was your defenses that were too lax, and even let him get into the city, and secretly robbed the woman." Gu Xin said indignantly, but did not mention the circumstances of his killing.

"The thief robbed the woman? Could it be that Taresa? Owen was slightly stunned, and then couldn't help but look at Edras Blackmore beside him.

"Talesa was kidnapped?!" Edras Blackmoreton looked surprised and angry.
