Chapter 61
On the way forward, Rod observed the dark clouds around him. These black clouds covered a very wide range. Due to poor sight, Rod did not know whether the black clouds covered the entire town, but all the way Rod had traveled, such black clouds were all over Rod’s head.
Rod realized that this dark cloud must have been created by some kind of treasure, and it was just an imitation of the real dark sky.
The real dark sky curtain will not suppress the Necromancer’s perception, but will have an improvement, helping the Necromancer to perceive the farther scene. It will not suppress most of Rhode’s perception as it is now.
Rod went all the way, and as he went forward, the sky was full of black clouds, making the surrounding environment extremely dark. As Lord got closer and closer to the mayor’s mansion, Lord also found an anomaly, and the mansion was almost covered with such dark clouds.
Originally, Rod could still see things clearly with the tiny light around him, but now he can’t see anything clearly, even the road under his feet.
Fortunately, Rhode’s perception of undead creatures still exists. Although this perception is somewhat suppressed by the dark clouds in the sky, it still plays a larger role for Rhode, allowing Rhode to feel through the concentration of death energy. The approximate location of the mayor’s residence.
Perhaps it is the reason for the limited vision. Because of the darkness around it, it is difficult for Rhode to observe the things next to him through his eyes. Therefore, Rhode can only focus all his attention on perception. Under this concentrated perception, Rhode’s perception is more accurate than in the normal state.
In Rod’s perception, the location of the original mayor’s mansion is now shrouded in a large amount of death energy. This death energy is not smooth, but is constantly producing a kind of violent fluctuations.
Rod realized that there was also a battle going on at the mayor’s mansion.
Earlier, because he was far from the location of the mayor’s mansion, Lord could still find the direction to move forward. Now, although he can perceive the death energy not far away, because of the darkness around him, even with the eagle eye technique, Lord I can’t see anything around him.
Rod stretched out his hand, and a ball of flame appeared in his hand to illuminate the surrounding road. Since maintaining the existence of the flame requires continuous consumption of mana, Rhode certainly does not want to do this.
The flame illuminates the surroundings. With the light of the fire, Rod looked around and found a wooden bar. Rod ignited one end of it with the flame and held the other end to make a simple torch.
Holding the torch, Rod walked towards the mayor’s residence not far away.
After walking for some distance, Rod saw a little fire light in front of him, and the fire light appeared so obvious in the darkness around him. As if realizing something, Rod quickly walked towards the spot where the fire was coming from.
As the distance approached, Rod saw a large number of undead creatures in the courtyard of the original mayor.
These undead creatures are all standing outside the mayor’s mansion, which is in the courtyard that Lord saw earlier. Many of them are holding torches. They are trying to get close to the mayor’s mansion and trying to ignite it. Obviously there is a necromancer. Manipulation.Ordinary undead creatures have only the instinct to fight. Even if it is a vampire, if Rhodes doesn’t order it, the vampire will not be like the undead creatures in front of him, holding a torch to light the surroundings.
Under the control of the Necromancer, the undead creatures can exert greater power, and there will be an overall improvement, just like the original Rhode manipulating the walking corpse in the tomb to deal with the vampire, a necromancer is hidden around him, controlling These undead creatures holding torches.
In addition to these undead creatures, Rod also discovered the undead creatures controlled by the mayor.
The skeleton warrior controlled by the mayor also came to the periphery of the mansion at this time, standing in a formation against the undead creatures holding torches nearby.
Rod noticed that the undead creatures controlled by the mayor were obviously more than those originally displayed in the mansion. Among the undead creatures protecting the mansion, most are skeleton warriors, and only a small part are walking corpses.
The offensive side is different. In the undead creatures on the offensive side, in addition to a large number of walking corpses, there are also a lot of ghosts, and even the ghosts that Rod has seen before.
Seeing these undead creatures, Rod seemed to realize something. For the Necromancer, a large part of the undead creatures he controls can reflect the way he improves his strength.
Generally speaking, after the necromancer destroys a village, he will convert all the people in it into undead creatures. The corpse that has just died is difficult to be made into a skeletal creature unless it undergoes special treatment. It can only be made. Into a walking corpse.
This is why, when Rod first awakened in the tomb, he was surrounded by a large number of walking corpses waiting to be transformed, and there were almost no skeletons.
Rod looked at the two sides in the battle. The undead creatures on the mayor’s side were almost all skeleton warriors and a small number of skeleton soldiers, while the other side had a large number of walking corpses.
This means that if someone has been using the residents of the town to create undead creatures, it is not the mayor, but the necromancer on this side.
This discovery made Rhode aware of something. Before Rhode could continue to observe the situation in the field, the surrounding undead creatures had discovered Rhode. The reason was that the torch held in Rhode’s hand was completely dark. Under the circumstances, the fire light ignited by the torch is very obvious.
As if under the control of the Necromancer, a ghost screamed at the side, but did not make any movement, and the undead creature that was besieging the mayor parted out and began to attack Rhodes.
Seeing other undead creatures surrounding him, Rhode took the weapon out of the space ring and stood on guard around him, letting the vampire face the undead creatures in front of him.
These undead creatures were obviously not opponents of vampires, and Rod did not take any action, focusing on observing the situation around the mansion.
Among the undead creatures fighting vampires, there are only some walking corpses and a few ghosts. The ghost that Rhodes had seen before was still fighting the mayor’s skeleton warrior in front.
The vampire fought with these undead creatures and quickly killed the surrounding undead creatures. Since the number of these undead creatures was very small, Rhode did not take any other actions and continued to observe the situation around the mansion.
In Rod’s view, due to the problem of the number of undead creatures, the number of undead creatures that attacked the mayor’s mansion far exceeds the number of undead creatures owned by the mayor, and the mayor’s resistance is obviously the skeleton warriors in front of him. .
In the rank position, the skeleton warrior belongs to the first-order creature, but in terms of actual combat ability, whether it is the basic attributes or the equipment, the skeleton warrior exceeds the ordinary first-order creature.
Although the attacking side has a lot of ghosts and a large number of walking corpses in front of them to take damage, they still can’t kill the skeleton warriors in front of them in a short time.
Rod took a closer look. On the battlefield, there was a special position between the skeleton warriors. They did not fight for one by one, but cooperated with each other. When a skeleton warrior was attacked, there were several others beside it. The skeleton warrior immediately confronted the enemy.
These skeleton warriors blocked the main road in front of the mansion, blocking the attack of the surrounding undead creatures. Although the walking corpse held the torch, it was difficult to approach the mansion.
Rod put the focus of attention on the position of the ghost in the battlefield. If ordinary undead creatures would be difficult to kill the skeleton warrior because of the cooperation between the skeleton warriors, but the ghost is different.
As the ghost of a third-order creature, when dealing with these skeleton warriors, as long as the Necromancer controlled by the rear is not bad in combat consciousness, they can easily kill the skeleton warriors.
Rod saw that there were three ghosts on the field. One of them was at the back of the battlefield. He had been paying attention to the position of himself and the vampire. It was precisely because he had been paying attention to this side that he could discover himself as soon as he arrived.
The other two were fighting with the skeleton warriors in front of them at this time.
A claw of the ghost came out, and a skeleton warrior directly in front of it swung his shield to greet him. The claws of the ghost hit the shield, and a dim light flashed across his body.
Another ghost took the opportunity to attack, but the skeleton warrior did not pursue the attack, but continued to raise his shield, preparing to face the next attack of the ghost. At the same time, the other skeleton warriors on the side also stepped forward to resist, preventing the ghost from hitting him.
Due to the characteristics of the ghost, the skeleton warrior did not cause much damage to the ghost, but similarly, when the skeleton warrior blindly resisted, the ghost was dragged here by the skeleton warrior, unable to take advantage of its third-order creature.
At this time, the vampire had killed all the undead creatures that came here, and while the vampire was fighting the other undead creatures, another ghost had been looking in this direction.
If the necromancer on the attacking side allows all the undead creatures to attack the mayor’s mansion, relying on the three ghosts and other undead creatures to break the mayor’s mansion.
Even if you can’t kill all the skeleton warriors, you can still take advantage of the number to ignite the mayor’s mansion with a fire. However, since some undead creatures must be separated to guard Rhode’s side, he obviously wouldn’t do that.
The vampire had already cleaned up the undead creatures surrounding him. Rhode did not let it make any other actions, but continued to check the situation in the field.
Rod also realized that things in the town were not as simple as he thought, so he did not act rashly.Looking at the undead creatures fighting on the field, Rod knows that this is actually only the beginning of the battle between the necromancers. The necromancers on both sides did not take action, but rely on these undead creatures to attack each other, leaving the magic to the point. Use it all the time.
Because the offensive is superior in number and has some high-level creatures, it wants to consume as much as possible the mayor’s undead creatures in this way.
As for the mayor, he is extremely confident in the defense of these skeleton warriors. Similarly, he did not release spells, but hid in the mansion to manipulate the undead creatures, relying on these skeleton warriors to form a special battle formation to resist the attacking undead creatures.
In the battle between necromancers, if the other necromancers cannot be quickly solved, they can only use this kind of force consumption. In addition to comparing the number and quality of the undead creatures, they must also compete with each other for the ability to control the undead creatures.
The low-level undead creatures have very poor combat awareness. Without the control of the necromancer, their strength can only rank bottom among the creatures of the same level. promote.
Necromancers control the undead creatures. If you want the undead creatures to move exactly according to their own ideas, it is a very energy-consuming thing. Generally, the necromancers just give an order to the undead creatures and then let the undead creatures act on their own.
For example, in the previous battles of Rhode, he only gave a suggestion to the vampire. The battles and the use of the bat skills are just general commands, not controlling the vampire. When to let it attack, how to raise its hand to attack.
Only in order to limit the blue runner’s dagger, Rhode can accurately control the vampire, and let it confine the blue runner’s dagger in the body. If the vampire alone is relying on the vampire himself, there will definitely not be such a practice.
Like ordinary battles, vampires rely more on their fighting consciousness. This is one of the reasons why high-level undead creatures are stronger than low-level undead creatures.
Rhode looked at the situation in the field. The battle formation formed by the skeleton warriors, including their combat response at this time, was obviously not achieved by their own strength, but was controlled by the mayor.
In order to achieve this level of control, in addition to having extremely powerful mental attributes, a high-level spiritual imprint is also indispensable.
Although spiritual imprints are counted as ordinary skills, skills similar to this cannot be improved by experience alone. They must have pre-existing knowledge content in order to be improved.
During the time that Rod was watching, new changes took place on the battlefield.
In order to guard against Rhodes, a high-level ghost was unable to deal with the surrounding enemies, and was also distracted to guard against Rhodes’s situation during the battle. This also resulted in the undead creatures on the attacking side being unable to be in the town. The skeleton warrior on the long side achieved great results under the defense of the battle formation.
The attacker also realized this. Although the undead creatures were aware of the existence of the enemy when they were attacked, there was no good countermeasure. Under the unknown circumstances, he still chose to attack the mansion. At this time, he finally realized the uncertainty brought about by doing so.
Knowing that it was difficult to capture this mansion for a while, coupled with the threat of an unknown enemy in the rear, the undead creatures on the offensive side gradually retreated, and the skeleton warrior did not pursue it, but just stayed in front of the mansion.
Due to the existence of three ghosts, even if the mayor can use spells to make these undead creatures unable to retreat safely, the mayor obviously did not do so, but thought of other aspects.
At this time, Rod, who had been motionless, took the shot.
