Chapter 123: Leader? Hero? Boss? The Strongest Existence
"Move aside."
The large man hadn't finished introducing himself when the one making eye contact with Gu Xi pushed aside the undead leader in front.
The skeleton archer leader, whom the large man emphasized, was directly pushed to the nearby wall, almost crushed into it.
At this moment, Gu Xi raised his head, looking at the leader walking up to him.
Her skin was somewhat dark gray, her eyes bright yellow, lips dark purple, standing at 2.4 meters tall. Her feet, now gray-black, wore black high-heeled shoes, topped with a black wide-brimmed hat, making her appear around 2.9 meters tall.
She wore a white formal gown, with three roses pinned to her chest. Given Gu Xi's height, the three roses—blood red, dark green, and gray-white—were right in front of him.
She bent down in front of Gu Xi, not caring about the exposed cleavage, her bright yellow eyes staring into his.
"You, take me with you."
The overwhelming force made Gu Xi involuntarily take a step back, but he immediately widened his eyes and straightened up.
However, Gu Xi was still puzzled.
After glaring at the undead leader to show he wasn't afraid, Gu Xi turned to the large man.
The large man, somewhat helpless, said, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect Dimmy to step forward. Since I found her, she hasn't wanted to interact with anyone else."
At this point, the large man seemed to recall something, "But don't underestimate Dimmy. She has the potential to become a boss. However, her requirements are high, and she has always looked down on other players. That's why she stayed here."
Boss potential?
Hearing this, Gu Xi couldn't help but glance at the tall undead woman named Dimmy.
In response, Dimmy rolled her eyes, showing a disdainful expression, ignoring Gu Xi's scrutiny.
"This doesn't make sense. If she truly had boss potential, someone would've already fought over her. No matter how unreasonable the conditions, someone would be willing to pay. Why has it dragged on until now?"
The large man, still helpless, said, "No way around it, Dimmy is an anomaly. She was an Amazon with Titan blood in life, and I turned her into an undead after death.
Originally, she should have become a warrior, but for some reason, she chose the leader path.
So, not many are willing to accept her.
Additionally, her conditions for joining are very demanding. With those conditions, one could sign a contract with a top-tier undead. Who would want to spend so much on a leader?"
"So, what are the conditions?"
Gu Xi asked, curious.
"Having your own city, that's the initial condition for joining." Dimmy said casually, "I have no regard for those without a city of their own."
"That is indeed a bit demanding. But with so many undead mage players passing through, some must have their own cities."
Gu Xi looked at Dimmy, puzzled, wanting to clarify things.
"Having a city of your own is just the start. If you want me to join, I have many conditions. First, I need my own mansion as a residence.
Second, I need my own cemetery for herb cultivation.
Third, I need my own mausoleum as my lab."
"Mansion, cemetery, and mausoleum?" Gu Xi muttered, quickly realizing, "You're occupying three training facilities all by yourself."
"Exactly. This alone makes many players with cities give up." The large man added.
"After all, everyone's cities aren't that large initially. Although occupied buildings can be rebuilt, getting large plots isn't easy. Many players aren't willing to use large plots for a leader."
Thinking it over, Gu Xi agreed. Three large plots, indeed.
In smaller cities, one might not even be available, let alone three.
With three large plots, many things could be built, not just used for a leader.
But Dimmy didn't care about these, smirking, "Those are just basic requirements. I want the city I reside in to have at least some giant attributes."
Hearing this, Gu Xi instantly understood why Dimmy was willing to join him.
It wasn't because he had a death city, but because his death city had a plot with both giant and death attributes.
Dimmy had keenly noticed this, hence stepping forward.
This made Gu Xi question Dimmy's strength. Was she really just boss potential?
Was she truly just a leader now?
Despite these thoughts, Gu Xi quickly said, "I understand. Welcome aboard."
"Huh, aren't you curious about the conditions to sign me as a contract undead?"
Seeing Gu Xi extend his hand, Dimmy was surprised, giving him a playful look and casually asking.
"No need. If you wanted to become a contract undead, you would've mentioned it. If you don't bring it up, either you don't value it, or it's something I can't achieve.
In either case, it wouldn't work out, so why ask?"
Dimmy's eyes brightened, "Interesting little guy. From now on, I'm your subordinate. Call on me if you need anything."
She extended two fingers, lightly shaking Gu Xi's hand.
At this moment, a message popped up in front of Gu Xi.
[Dimmytrescu (Level 0, Summon, Undead Leader): Experience (0/500) Attack 5+3, Defense 4, HP 35+35, Skills: Combat Elite (Attack +3), Titan Bloodline (HP doubled), Leader (Can command zombies, ghosts, vampires, command limit 60), Alchemist.]
Seeing the information, Gu Xi realized her name wasn't Dimmy, but Dimmytrescu.
She had zombie, ghost, and vampire traits.
Thus, she could control these three types of units.
Although she could only choose one type of unit to command now, as she grew and became a hero, commanding multiple units would be effortless.
Regarding her level, everyone knew that when a leader, hero, or contract undead switched hands, their level reset, an ironclad rule.
This was to prevent legacy necromancers from passing powerful undead to the next generation.
Therefore, Gu Xi didn't look down on Dimmytrescu due to her low level. Instead, he was impressed by her four powerful skills.
So, this was the difference with a boss potential leader?
If so, Gu Xi wanted to ask: Are there more?
