Question mark face.

Gu Xi still hasn’t figured out why he was recruited for a task after just speaking two words with someone.

Taken to the Teleportation Gate by the Blood God Son, Gu Xi didn’t even need to speak before Blood God Son handed him a task sheet at the teleportation desk.

"You’re an Undead Mage, right? Just in time, I have a task for you; this is the task sheet, let me explain it to you.

This time, the Game World we’re heading to is the last world that concluded the previous Creation.

We have detailed information on that world.

You’ve heard about the state of Creation; we need to find the connection between this world and the next.

You’re from outside Ancestor City, so you might not know.

Let me explain it to you like this.

The characters appearing in this world have legends about them in the next world.

That’s how we determine a connection."

Gu Xi nodded knowingly, but he wasn’t in a hurry to look at his task sheet.

Instead, he listened to Blood God Son talk about some details about Creation.

Blood God Son is the initiator of this instance of Creation.

His words always include information unknown to Gu Xi.

This information is the most crucial.

Sure enough, Blood God Son added, "Of course, there are nuances here; connections vary.

Some become side characters from one world to the next.

Others transform into rare treasures from something inherited from this world.

The farther the relationship between the items we seek, the better.

The directions should be as twisted as possible; only then will enough energy be generated when opening a new world, adding a brick to the Creation Bridge."

Gu Xi could somewhat understand this explanation.

He also grasped the two examples presented by Blood God Son.

The first example refers to the connection between "Shooting Eagle" and "Divine Eagle." The protagonist in one becomes a side character in the next.

This shows a legacy thread.

Expanding it, there’s a link between "Dragon" and "Divine Eagle," showing a legacy in martial skills and even sects.

The second example is the link between "Sword of the Yue Maiden" and "Shooting Eagle." Besides being written by the same author, can you see any connection?

Indeed, there is; among the mentors of "Shooting Eagle" protagonist, one studied "Sword of the Yue Maiden."

This connection makes sense.

Finding an item in one Game World linking to another Game World in Creation is harder than finding links between "Sword of the Yue Maiden" and "Shooting Eagle."

Moreover, it must preferably involve different systems.

Say the current world’s system is Western Fantasy; then the next should be Immortal Cultivation.

Only through such pulling will enough energy be generated to build the Creation Bridge’s passage.

The first step in Creation is finding an item in the last world of the previous Creation to open the next world.

This item could be a person, an inconspicuous object, or even a concept.

For now, the key is to enter and familiarize yourself with the last world.

Many years have passed since the previous Creation.

Even with Level 30 bigshots suppressing all worlds.

But over the years, these Game Worlds will have developed and changed.

The first phase is to reclaim this Game World, creating opportunities for the players entering later.

After understanding these circumstances, Gu Xi looked at his task sheet.

"Escort mission?"

"Yes, this is the most crucial Escort mission. Initially, I planned for my disciple to complete this task.

But now that you’re here, I’m assigning it to you."

Gu Xi said somewhat helplessly, "Sir, you have too high an opinion of me; I don’t have such strong abilities."

"Why not? I know you; you possess the Death Three Divine Skills, don’t you?

Don’t look at me like that; I’ve walked the Undead Mage path; I also have the Death Three Divine Skills.

But I acquired the Death Three Divine Skills too late, even though I later got some items related to them.

Not developing is still not developing.

Yet I know a bit about the situation.

Your Combat Power shouldn’t be an issue.

Particularly since this time, we’re heading to a place where the Death Lord’s abilities are quite handy.

I initially considered who to send, and then I met you; it’s a chance that fell from the sky."

Gu Xi rolled his eyes.

Having communicated with Blood God Son for some time, knowing his personality, Gu Xi no longer sees him as an aloof bigshot.

Minor actions are done as needed.

Having such a task forced upon oneself, what’s an eye roll?

"Your task is one of the most important, I need to oversee the first phase of the Game World.

Many things I cannot personally handle.

Your task is maintaining this world’s stability.

Should this Game World fall apart, we won’t have time to find suitable items.

Thus, your Escort mission is extremely critical.

It must be completed on time."

While Blood God Son initially had a good attitude towards Gu Xi, his demeanor immediately became serious when discussing this task.

Gu Xi also understood, at this point, that this Escort mission is indeed crucial.

Not accepting it now would mean disrespecting Blood God Son.

"Alright, I accept this task."

"Haha, I knew you would take it; let me tell you, this task lasts three months; as long as you deliver the person within this period, it’s fine.

All the Undead you encounter along the way are yours."

Blood God Son spoke while patting Gu Xi’s shoulder, displaying trust in him.

"By the way, take this. It’s support from a senior. Work hard; during Creation, you’ll encounter quite a lot of things."

Blood God Son said while handing Gu Xi a parchment.

Just as Gu Xi planned to examine it closely, he saw Blood God Son transform into a puddle of blood, seeping into the ground.

Upon looking again, Blood God Son had completely disappeared before Gu Xi.

Now, in front of Gu Xi, only the player responsible for guarding the Teleportation Gate remained.

"Um, sir, would you like to record your task first?"

"Oh, alright."

Gu Xi finally reacted and handed out the task sheet.

Simultaneously, he took the opportunity to open the parchment given by Blood God Son.

Within it recorded three small techniques related to the Death Three Divine Skills taught by Blood God Son.

Though not a system-acknowledged reward, it’s useful for Gu Xi.
