Hearing Rhodes mention the most unique creature, the angel, in his words, the lich in the field couldn't help but become serious.
Even Smed, who had been staring at the ghost in the sky, at this moment, turned his attention to Rhodes in the field.
The City in the Clouds above Erathia and the angels living in it are unavoidable in the process of fighting this force. The power of this creature has long been known to all the lichs present. As one of the most powerful species, angels have reached perfection in all aspects. Even the weakest angels are at the sixth level and can surpass other creatures of the same level in all aspects.
At the same time, angels also have strong spell-casting abilities. Although the effects are not as good as those cast by real legendary mages, they are still enough to outperform most conventional creatures.
The only ones who can equal the angels in terms of strength, or even suppress the angels in turn, are probably the true legendary mages.
Many lichs in the field are very aware of this. In the process of fighting Erathia, angels are undoubtedly the biggest resistance they will face. In past conflicts, ordinary undead legions have long been proven to be unable to deal with angels.
constitute a threat.
At this time, hearing Rhodes mention those angels, these lichs also wanted to know what Rhodes' countermeasures were.
"I do not recommend that you face these angels directly at the beginning of the battle. Fighting these angels before the number of corpse witches increases will cause great losses."
"Before all the angels are dispatched, I need all the lichs to accumulate as many corpse witches as possible. In order to expand the number of corpse witches, small towns with weak defenses should be the focus of attention."
"The transformed corpse witch can also function as an artifact and continue to transform dead creatures into resentful souls. You may wish to hand over your corpse witches to other necromancers to control them and let them join in the transformation of undead creatures.
, to attract the attention of some angels."
"In the middle of the campaign, when the number of corpse witches increases, all of Erathia's conventional defense forces will become intimidating with the help of these special undead creatures. Any town will be easily captured, even those angels.
There is no way to break through the stacking clouds of death."
"At this time, what everyone needs to worry about is the mage reinforcements coming from the further south, Brakada. This is also an area that is difficult to handle with the Corpse Witch alone."
"But I believe that by that time, there will only be one step away from the complete fall of Erathia. Instead, we can use this opportunity to launch an attack on the former Mage Empire."
Since a single Lich is powerful enough in itself, and its subordinates control a large number of undead legions, the information mentioned by Rhodes is more focused on strategy and real tactical formulation, such as how to use undead creatures to cooperate with each other,
It is more appropriate to launch an attack on a certain place, or to send out bait to attract the attention of angels, or it is more appropriate for the lich to decide on its own after the battle begins.
After learning this information from Rhodes' words, Stephen on the side seemed to have discovered something wrong and asked proactively:
"What about you? What actions will you make in this battle?"
Regarding what Stephen asked about, Rhodes had already predicted it before, so he replied:
"In order to express my sincerity, I am willing to give up the Erathia region, which is located in the center of the continent, has the most fertile land, and is also the most populous, to all the lichs for the initial transformation of corpse witches. I believe that in the early stages of the campaign,
You lichs don’t need my joining.”
"As for me, I will lead my undead creatures to Eri to fight the high-level creatures in Eri. I believe that by the time you completely occupy Erathia, I will have almost solved the problem." p>
"If everything goes well, when Erathia is completely fallen, I will lead you to launch the final attack on Brakada. At this point, except for some scattered remote areas, such as Krulod and other areas, the surface world will
Completely occupied by necromancers."
Along with Rhode's words, his thoughts were also known to the lichs in the field. The information contained in them, especially Rhodes' own ambition, deeply shocked the lichs in the field.
However, Rhodes did not inform him of some special information in this battle.
Rhodes, who is familiar with the plot of the expansion pack, deeply understands the reason for the failure of the Shadow of Death battle in the previous life, which is the artifact controlled by the angel.
Facing the endless army of corpse witches, Erathia has almost no ability to resist. Once the members participating in the battle die, they will join the enemy army as corpse witches, which is enough to defeat the morale of any lord.
The outcome of this battle should have been consistent with Sandro's prediction in his previous life. The necromancer would conquer the entire world. However, the appearance of the aurora completely changed this.
Under the effect of the aurora released by the artifact, all the corpse witches transformed from the Ghost King's cloak were destroyed. Even Sandro in his previous life fell under the effect of the aurora.
That special artifact, and the aurora released by the artifact, were something Rhode had to guard against. Rhodes didn't want to make the same mistake as Sandro, but he didn't have the means to counter that artifact.
There is no way to counter the unique power of an artifact. It can only be done under the rules of the artifact. This is true for any artifact. Although Rhodes foresaw the existence of the artifact, he could not change this. p>
Just like in the first expansion pack, the mage knew that the effect of the forbidden magic ball would dispel all the magic elements in it, but he had to fight with the savage creatures under the shroud of the forbidden magic barrier. The special effects of the artifact cannot be affected by any
Things counterattack.
For this reason, Rhodes' choice was to give up Erathia, which was originally the main battlefield, and instead set his target on Eri. Even if the power of the artifact appeared again, he would not be like Sandruna in his previous life.
It will die directly.
Rhodes recalled that in the previous game, Sandro's decision was not like the one he made now. Instead, he personally led his undead army to attack Erathia.
Relying on the two artifacts he possesses, plus the sharp increase in the number of corpse witches as the battle progresses, Sandro can easily resolve them even when faced with the siege of a large number of angels. Many Erathians united and tried to
The heroes who resisted the attack of the Corpse Witches were also no match for Sandro.
In this case, some weaker lichs were not allowed to join the battlefield in Erathia at all, and could only go to other areas to find other solutions, such as Eli mentioned by Rhodes.
