Invincible Hero of Necromancer Chapter 79: Fatification
After killing the bone vine, Rhode quickly waved the weapon in his hand and cut a hole in the core part of the bone vine while taking advantage of the last bit of time left in the thaumaturgy.
Then, Rhodes reached out and quickly took out an object and put it into the space ring.
After the bone vine lost its life, its original defense was also reduced a lot, and Rhodes could easily cut open the part of the bone vine body.
At this time, the duration of Rhodes' Fire-fighting thaumaturgy expired, and the flames burned on the corpse of the bone vine, and there were a lot of flames in Rhodes' position.
Originally, due to the existence of thaumaturgy, these flames could not ignite Rhodes' clothes. After the end of thaumaturgy, the flames began to burn along Rhodes' black robe.
At this time, the entire room where the bone vine was located was filled with flames, the original passage was blocked again, and the mansion was still gradually collapsing. With conventional means, Rhodes could not escape at all.
Several stones fell from the top of Rhode's head. Rhode's body moved. Suddenly, a black mist appeared from Rhode's position. The stones fell through the black mist and fell to the ground. Out of the fog.
The skill that Rhodes uses is the bat transformation that vampires are best at.
As early as in the previous battle, Rhode saw this message when he checked the system log:
"Eagle Eye Feedback: By observing the vampire's combat style, you have learned some of the main points of the skill [bat transformation], you can spend 200 experience points to learn."
Since the tips obtained through the eagle eye technique will always be saved, at this time, in order to escape from this sea of fire, Rhodes quickly opened the attribute panel and chose to learn [bat transformation].
The bat transformation is exactly the basis for Rhodes to dare to leave the mansion that has turned into a sea of fire.
Since Rhodes only has the primary eagle eye technique, the chances of stealing skills in battle are not high, but this does not hold the vampires to bat beside Rhodes many times. Rhodes has seen vampires at least a dozen times. of bat formations.
Therefore, Rhodes got a hint of the skill of bat transformation through the eagle eye technique.
The reminder of the bat formation has been received by Rhodes earlier, but Rhodes has never spent experience points to learn.
In Rhodes' original idea, to use a dagger to assassinate the mayor, he needed to use the bat transformation skill, so that he could get past the barrier of the bone vine and approach the mayor.
However, due to being controlled by the dagger, Rhodes' plan did not work. Fortunately, the dagger successfully killed the mayor, and Rhodes also successfully escaped the control of the dagger.
At this time, the bat that Rhodes transformed into flew rapidly into the sky.
Just after the bat transformation, Rhodes did not get used to it for a while, but Rhodes also used such skills in his previous life. Therefore, Rhodes mastered the skills of manipulating bats in a short period of time.
In Rhode's perception, the bats around him are like extensions of his own limbs. Rhode's consciousness does not exist in every bat, but at a higher level, governing all bat.
Rhodes can command all bats to move or attack from his consciousness, but he cannot control them accurately.
The top of Rhodes's head, where he used to be, is now empty. The top of the mansion is already empty due to the burning of the flames and the beating of the bone vines.
The bat flew out towards the top of Rhodes' head. Since there was no obstruction, the bat could just fly directly outside the mansion.
At this moment, a wall at the top fell down in the direction of the bat. Under Rhode's signal, the bat quickly dispersed to the side.
The wall failed to hit the bat that Rhodes turned into, but hit the corpse of the bone vine on the ground, covering it under the stone.
Dodging the collapsed wall, the bats flew out of the hole at the top of the mansion, and then gathered in the open space in front of the mansion.
As a black mist surged past, Rhode's figure emerged from the black mist.
At this time, Rhodes' back room was a sea of flames, and the entire mansion was in flames.
Without taking care of the burning mansion, Rhodes left behind with these undead creatures around.
Go to the front of the corpse of the necromancer. According to Rhodes' idea, if he handles it properly, he should be able to create a ghost by using the corpse of the necromancer in front of him.
At this time, Rhode seemed to have thought of something, and he did not transform it immediately. Rhodes let a ghost carry it on his back, and then left.
Along the way, Rhodes brought these undead creatures around and came to the gate of the original hotel.
Let the undead creatures hide themselves around, Rhodes entered the hotel alone and returned to his original room.
At this time, the threat in the entire town had been completely eliminated, and Rhodes was relieved, and he did not let the vampires be on guard.
After finding a seat in the room, Rhodes sat down.
At this time, a sense of distress hit Rhodes. During the original battle, Rhodes' body lost blood one after another. Although his health was recovered due to attribute points and spells, his physical exhaustion still existed.
Therefore, Rhode couldn't help but want to rest after he had just obtained temporary stability.
However, as if realizing something, Rhodes resisted sleepiness and did not choose to rest, but began to meditate.
Since he is about to march into Diya, he will encounter a necromancer at some point. Therefore, Rhodes needs to maintain a state capable of fighting.
Therefore, Rhodes needs to recover some mana before he can hit the road.
As his consciousness slowly calmed down, Rhodes also entered a state of meditation.
…………
After an unknown amount of time, Rhodes ended his meditation.
After sobering up, Rhodes looked at his attribute panel.
At this time, the mana that had bottomed out had recovered to about half. Based on the restored mana, Rhode knew that a lot of time had passed since he started meditating.
The sun came in from the windows inside the room, allowing Rhodes to see the scenery inside the house.
The mana has recovered by more than half, which is enough for Rhodes' spells to play a big role. Therefore, Rhodes stopped meditating, but walked out of the room and came to the bottom of the hotel.
At this time, the old man was already waiting here.
The old man was obviously not resting well. At this time, when he saw Rhode walking down the stairs, the old man immediately stepped forward to greet him and said to Rhode:
"I knew that you will be able to return safely. Are you ready to leave here... Here are the gold coins I am willing to pay, please accept..."
While speaking, the old man directly took out a cloth bag from the pocket on the side, and directly greeted Rhodes and handed it to Rhodes. According to what the old man said, the cloth bag was filled with gold coins.
For the old man, these gold coins may have been saved by him for so many years. Since he needed Rhodes to escape from here with him, he was willing to give most of the gold coins on his body to Rhodes.
After all, the old man just wants to live.
In order to prevent Rhodes from refusing, the old man even took the initiative to hand over the gold coins to Rhodes. In the old man's thoughts, once he held his gold coins, it would be difficult for him to refuse his request.
Holding these gold coins, Rhode didn't say anything, just glanced at the old man and sensed the death energy in him at the same time.
"Are you going to take me out of here now... I have a carriage ready at the back of the hotel, ready to go at any time."
At this time, the old man took out items similar to luggage from the room. As long as Rhode agreed, the old man would immediately move the luggage to the carriage and follow Rhode to leave the place.
Rhodes did not answer the old man's question, but took out a map from the space ring, which was the one given to Rhodes by the original mayor.
Handing the map to the old man, Rhode asked, "I plan to go to the City of Screaming. Do you know if the location shown on this map is wrong?"
The old man took the map, looked at it carefully, and then said to Rhodes: "Although I'm not sure, but what's drawn on this map should be correct."
When the old man said this, he stared into Rhodes' eyes seriously. Rhodes seemed to notice something, but he didn't care.
Rhodes took the map, and then stared at the old man without saying a word.
In Rhodes' perception, the death energy emanating from the old man did not increase in any way, on the contrary, it decreased a lot.
Rhode realized that since he ended the conversation with the old man, the old man had adjusted his mental state a lot during this period of time.
According to the first time Rhode saw the old man, although he was just an ordinary person, according to the concentration of death energy emanating from his body, he could be transformed into a ghost if handled properly, but at this time, the old man The energy of death in the body dissipated a lot.
Seeing that Rhodes has not spoken, the old man finally said: "Now, can we go... Or, let's wait a few more days..."
There was a little doubt in his voice, but the old man dared not express it.
Rhodes said to the old man: "I plan to go to the City of Screaming, you don't seem to have a specific place to flee to."
The old man was silent for a while, and then said to Rhodes: "Because I am alone, when it comes to where to escape, I don't have much choice. I just hope to be able to leave with you."
When he said that he was alone, the death energy of the old man overflowed towards the surroundings, and Rhodes keenly sensed it.
Rhodes said: "What about your relatives? According to the gold coins you gave me, there should be no problem in raising children, right?"
The old man replied, "I originally had several sons, but all of them were unwilling to stay in the town. They left with the business group in the past and never came back." There was a hint of sadness in his voice.
The old man went on to say: "Before the mayor came to the town, the town was fine, but after the mayor came here, the town deteriorated year by year, and the residents of the town left one after another. , the only ones left here are those who can't walk and those who can't go far."
"Because of the large decrease in the number of residents in the town and the fact that there are not many business groups willing to come to the town again, my business cannot be done. If I had known this, I might as well have left here with my family. These The gold coins are all I have accumulated before."
Because the old people are old and frail, and they don't have any family members, even if they leave, they can't find a suitable way.
Until this time, after noticing Rhodes, the old man thought he had found a suitable candidate and put all his hopes on Rhodes.
At this time, Rhode said to the old man, "How long do you think you can live even if you leave here?"
After listening, the old man was at a loss for words, looked at Rhodes, and did not reply.
Rhodes went on to say: "You know, the place I plan to go is Diya's City of Sorrows. The level of danger in the city far exceeds this town."
"Even if you're just an ordinary person, if you don't have a Necromancer as your background, it's very difficult to survive. For you, if you don't join the Necromancer Academy, you won't be able to survive in the City of Screaming. a few days."
"I think you're not too young. Even if you join the Necromancer Academy, it's too late to start learning spells. You can't outperform young Necromancers in the competition, and the final outcome is just death."
"Going to the City of Lamentation is just a dead end for you."
Rhodes said this out of his previous knowledge of the Necromancer.
The purpose of Rhodes saying these words is naturally not to persuade the old man.
In Rhode's perception, as he spoke his words, the death energy emitted by the old man gradually increased. When Rhode finished speaking, the concentration of death energy once exceeded that of Rhode's first time. perceived.
The old man is not yet an undead creature. For the undead creature, releasing these death energies may be just at the second-order level, but for the old man who is still human, releasing these death energies , has been extremely rare.
After listening to Rhodes' words, the old man trembled, closed his eyes, and reopened them after a while. He seemed to have calmed down and asked Rhodes:
"Before, didn't you mean that the time to leave hasn't come yet? Now, can you leave..."
The old man deliberately did not go to the question mentioned by Tyrod, obviously wanting to avoid it.
The old man's mind couldn't stop generating fear and doubts about the future. Previously, due to the death of a large number of people in the town, there were not many people left in the whole town. The old man no longer dared to stay in the town ~IndoMTL.com~ but wanted to leave.
The old man had no idea about the goal he was going to, he just wanted to leave the town as soon as possible.
At this time, after the reminder in Rhodes' words, the old man realized that even if he reached the City of Screaming, he would not be able to survive with his own abilities.
Ordinary people without ranks cannot survive in the City of Screaming. Since every necromancer needs his own undead creature, if there is no certain background, ordinary people will be hunted and killed by the necromancer at will.
At the same time, due to the existence of high-standard freelance business associations in the city, a large number of business groups will send various types of slaves to the City of Screaming, and many of them are ordinary people.
Therefore, according to the current level of the old man, even if he reaches the City of Screaming, he will die at the hands of the necromancer apprentice in a short time.
At the same time, due to the fact that he is located in the territory of Diya, affected by the ethos of the necromancer, if the old man chooses to go to other places alone, without the protection of a strong man, it will be difficult to even persist on this journey.
The old man didn't know how he could survive, so he could only avoid this question in his mind.
Rhodes was silent. At this time, in Rhode's perception, the death energy of the original old man became more and more intense.
The old man tried to avoid this question, but he couldn't stop thinking about it at all, and instead became more and more afraid.
Just when the energy of death reached a certain level, Rhode said to the old man: "It's time, take me to the carriage."
The old man led Rhodes towards the back of the hotel.
Just as the old man turned around, the blade stabbed out from his back, killing him instantly.
