Invincible Hero of Necromancer Chapter 72: Bone first
Looking at the small piece of vine tissue in his hand, Rhode realized the type of vine that attacked vampires.
Based on some experiences in previous lives and the sights he had seen before, Rhodes guessed that the creatures guarding the mansion should be special undead creatures, bone vines. The original cane that attacked vampires was part of the bone vine.
After high-level plants die for some reason, necromancers can transform them into special undead creatures through a series of soul-calling rituals, and bone vines are one of the more common ones.
Because it is a special undead creature, the bone vine has excellent potential. It can grow by devouring the flesh and blood of living creatures. After being cultivated, it is extremely beneficial to defense. It is a relatively top existence among creatures of the same order.
However, although this bone vine is extremely powerful, it still has many limitations.
The flesh and blood required to cultivate bone vines is extremely large, and due to its own reasons, bone vines cannot leave the root system like regular undead creatures.
Once the bone vine is cultivated, it can only stick to one place. In addition, the bone vine needs to devour a lot of flesh and blood as nourishment every day, otherwise it will show a sluggish state and it will be difficult to exert its own strength.
When the rank of the bone vine reaches a certain level, ordinary flesh and blood can only allow the bone vine to maintain its current strength, but it cannot increase the rank of the bone vine.
Since the main body is a plant, the bone vine cannot be improved by absorbing the energy of death like ordinary undead creatures. Bone vine must devour high-quality flesh and blood in order to gain strength.
Generally speaking, this kind of bone vine is cultivated by the undead towns above medium size for defense. Because of the whole town as a supply of flesh and blood, it can exert its maximum strength.
Therefore, necromancers often leave this bone vine in a dormant state, waiting until enough flesh and blood is accumulated before awakening the bone vine. When bone vines are dormant, they do not need to devour flesh daily.
Rhodes realized that this was the reason why the mayor retreated to the inside of the mansion first. The mayor did not care about the result of Rhodes' battle with the Necromancer, and came to the inside of the mansion first, just to wake the bone vine from its dormant state.
At this time, Rhodes has confirmed that the undead creatures guarding the mansion are bone vines. Knowing this, and thinking about the strength shown by the bone vines earlier, Rhode knew that he couldn't be in a hurry.
Rhodes looked at the small piece of tissue in his hand. Most of the bone vines have this structure, and only the position close to the core will change.
Rhodes took this small piece of tissue, came to the candlestick not far away, and placed it on the candlestick for burning.
Although bone vines showed resistance to fire in the previous test, Rhode still needs to confirm the extent of this resistance and how much effective damage the fire can do to bone vines. .
The resistance of undead creatures to fire is generally not high. No matter what kind of undead creatures, they cannot withstand the burning of flames for a long time.
When Rhode just got this piece of tissue in his hand, this small piece of tissue appeared a white color, which should be its original color. Under the light of the flame, the tissue on the bone vine showed a special red color, and the closer it was to the fire, the deeper the red color.
Rhodes looked into the candlestick. During the burning process of the flame, this small piece of tissue gradually changed.
At this time, through the burning of the flame, a charred black color appeared on the bone vine's tissue. , it seems that it can be torn off with just a gentle tug.
Seeing this, Rhode knew that the resistance of bone vines to flames was not as good as he thought.
Rhodes realizes that fire can play a big role. This is also the reason why the bone vine will directly attack the ghost holding the torch, and after the ghost is killed, the torch on the ground will be extinguished immediately.
In the process of putting out the torch, because the single rattan of the bone vine is relatively wide and can generate great force, the flame is extinguished under the continuous beating. The vines are also subject to scorching damage from the fire.
At this time, Rhode couldn't help but think that if he mastered the Fire Wall Magic and had enough mana, it would undoubtedly be much easier to deal with the bone vine in front of him.
Because he was in a hurry to conquer the undead creatures, Rhodes did not search for the magic book carried by the necromancer. Although he could learn the fire wall spell in this way, Rhodes was still unable to cast it due to insufficient mana.
Therefore, even if he knew that flames could deal with bone vines, Rhodes still needed a suitable method.
With the candle around him, Rhodes rekindled a torch.
Rhodes just handed the torch to the ghost, when a stream of water fell from the sky, dousing the torch in the ghost's hand. At the same time, multiple streams of water appeared, causing all the candlesticks inside the mansion to go out.
Rhode knew that this was the response of the mayor who had been secretly observing the situation.
Using spells to directly condense the water flow is like making fire directly, and it does not consume much mana. Therefore, Rhodes' method only makes the mayor consume some mana.
This created stream of water can be generated from any location, depending on the caster's intent. Even if the mayor is standing in the room, due to the short distance, the water can be poured down directly from the sky.
If at first the mayor was to observe the situation of the members who entered the mansion, he deliberately left the flame on the candlestick to observe, then the mayor had already obtained the required information, and when he discovered that Rhodes wanted to After setting the mansion on fire with the help of flames, immediately extinguish the surrounding fire.
Compared with creating water flow, this move of the mayor undoubtedly made Rhodes understand something. Even if the mayor is inside the room, he can use some means to see what Rhodes is doing outside the room, which makes Rhodes vigilant.
Since the surrounding fire was extinguished, the light inside the mansion instantly dimmed, and it was difficult for Rhodes to see the surrounding things.
Inside the dark mansion, a flame illuminates the surroundings. Rhodes directly used the mana to light the torch.
Rhodes stood there and waited for a while, but the water flow did not come again, so Rhodes had some confirmation on the way the mayor observed himself.
Handing the torch to the ghost on the side, Rhodes did not let the ghost try to set the mansion on fire, but just held the torch to illuminate it.
Rhode knew in his heart that if it was just lighting, the mayor would not put out the torch with water. As Rhodes had previously confirmed, the mayor also needed the lighting provided by this flame to observe himself outside the room.
Since the mansion could not be ignited directly with flames, Rhodes began to think about how to deal with the bone vines.
According to Rhodes' idea, the best way to deal with the mayor is to leave the mansion directly, and then send undead creatures to monitor every move in the mansion.
When he learned the magic recorded in the necromancer's magic book and his mana was restored, it would undoubtedly be easier for Rhodes to deal with the bone vines in the mansion. Perhaps this is the easiest way to deal with the mayor. method.
Since the bone vine needs to consume a lot of flesh and blood every day after being awakened, as long as Rhode surrounds this place, it will not take long for Rhode to attack, and the bone vine will lose most of its power.
But, as Rhodes had expected, it won't be long before the war between Dia and Eli will begin. Rhodes needs to come to the Necromancy Academy before the war starts, in order to obtain the greatest benefits.
Rhodes has been in the town for a few days. If it goes on like this, even if Rhodes kills the mayor without much loss, Rhodes also loses the opportunity to gain greater benefits in the war. , which belongs to the small loses the big.
At this time, Rhodes made his own judgment, that is, he can only attack by force, relying on these undead creatures under his control, although he does not know how much losses will be, but as long as he can take down the mayor, Rhodes will acceptable.
In the previous battle, the mayor of the four lines of magic was used. Rhode did not know why the necromancer chose to come here and become a mayor instead of studying in the necromancer academy.
Rhodes knew that a strong attack was also divided into strategies, and letting all the undead creatures swarm up was undoubtedly the worst choice. When the undead creature takes action and how to schedule it, it is up to the necromancer to judge by himself.
In this regard, players can choose to learn a special skill: tactics, which can be improved in command after learning.
And Rhodes did not choose to learn tactics. Since it is not a necessary skill, Rhodes can also command the undead creatures based on his own combat experience, so Rhodes does not want to spend attribute points to learn.
Previously, when a vampire was entangled by a rattan, he could still scratch the parts on the rattan, but due to the short time, he could not cause much damage to the rattan.
This means that ghosts and ghosts can also cause a lot of damage to the rattan, but be careful with the mutual cooperation between the rattan, otherwise they will be directly killed by the rattan.
Under the control of Rhodes, the surrounding undead creatures were immediately ready and came to the door of this room.
At this time, according to Rhodes' instructions, the vampire entered the room first.
Behind the vampire are the three ghosts controlled by Rhodes. In order to ensure that he can deal with the bone vines, Rhodes sent all the three ghosts he controlled. However, the ghost didn't move at this time, and was still outside the door, waiting for the vampire to enter first.
Compared with the ghosts, the basic attributes of ghosts are poor, it is difficult to withstand a single attack from the rattan, and it will make the space crowded, which is not conducive to other undead creatures to avoid the attack of the rattan. Rhode did not let these The ghost stepped forward to fight, but waited outside.
As soon as the vampire entered the room, a cane shot straight at the vampire.
According to Rhodes' instructions, the vampire quickly dodged to the side, and the rattan slammed into the air.
The speed at which the cane shoots out is extremely fast. While the vampire is dodging, the front end of the cane has reached the back of the vampire.
The front end of the rattan exerted force and circled around the vampire, entangling the vampire.
At this time, a few vines were shot from the rear again, hitting the vampire.
According to Rhode's order, the ghost stepped forward directly and blocked in front of the vampire.
The rattan hit the ghost, and the ghost couldn't dodge in time. The rat who was hit by the rat stepped back a few steps, but then the dark light flowed on his body, and the injury gradually recovered.
Except for one vine that entangled the vampire, the other vines tried to attack the vampire, but were blocked by the ghost next to them.
Although the body was entangled by the vines, since there was no attack from the other vines, the vampire took this opportunity to tear the bone vines on his body with all his might.
Under the tearing of the vampire, a part of the rattan wrapped around it was torn apart, but compared to the whole rattan, it was still useless, and the vampire was tightly entangled.
The cane is so tough that even if a vampire rips it with all its strength, it can't be torn off, only a small portion of it can be ripped apart each time it is torn.
At this time, the vampire, who was tearing the cane, stumbled under his feet and rushed into the room for a few steps. Then he stopped and almost hit the ghost in front of him~IndoMTL.com~ It turned out that while the vampire was tearing When the rattan was being used, a huge force suddenly came from the rattan, trying to retract the vampire towards the back, making the vampire stand unsteady.
Fortunately, the vampire stopped in time to rush forward. The vampire kept moving, and while fighting against the pulling force of the rattan, he continued to tear the rattan with his claws.
Two vines attacked again, but they were blocked by the ghosts in front of the vampire. The ghost is not afraid of the slap of the rattan. As long as the location of the hit is not the head, the ghost can rely on its own characteristics to recover.
Therefore, the ghost can help the vampire very well and resist the attack of the rattan.
Several consecutive beats of the rattan have not achieved good results. The vampire had already torn off most of the cane wrapped around him, and he only needed to continue attacking for a while, and the front of the cane could be torn off from one part.
The bone vine seemed to realize this, too. The cane that had been entangled in the vampire instantly loosened and wanted to pull it back, but the vampire directly grabbed the retreating bone vine, making it unable to rest withdraw.
At this time, the cane caught by the vampire began to swing violently, struggling violently in the vampire's hand, trying to get rid of the vampire's control.
At this moment, a blade slashed down, directly hitting the part of the cane that was torn apart by the vampire. Rhode did not know when he came to the vampire and joined the battle.
Although it was torn apart by the vampires, the rattan's appearance was still tough, and it bounced off the blade that Rhodes cut off.
Seeing that the weapon in his hand could not cause effective damage to the rattan, Rhode quickly took out a dagger from the space ring.
The dagger slid across Rhode's arm, and the red light flashed.
Rhodes swung the dagger without any hindrance, and instantly cut off the vine that was entangled with the vampire.
