This move made by Rhodes at this time naturally attracted the attention of the lichs in the field, and even made them feel a little confused.
These lichs didn't understand why Rhodes killed Phoenix immediately after making his choice.
If it is to transform Phoenix into an undead creature like a vampire, and if it does not have heroic will, the new consciousness in the soul fire will replace its original consciousness. Although it can still retain some of its habits during life, but
His intelligence will be greatly reduced, and the other necromancers will also be able to intuitively distinguish his identity as an undead creature.
The rest of the lich does not necessarily agree with a controlled undead creature becoming a puppet.
If Rhodes's move was just to show the power of the artifact, in this case, it doesn't have to be like this. Many lichs in the field have already recognized Rhodes' identity, and showing power to an ordinary necromancer also proves that
Nothing.
Perhaps only Rhodes himself knows the true meaning of his move.
Through his prying eyes, after noticing the possible landing point of Phoenix's teleportation, Rhodes simply waved the blade in his hand twice and easily solved it without even consuming any mana.
At this time, looking at the lich in the field, Rhodes' words slowly came out:
"Then, since all the lichs have no objections, the necromancer will be the target."
With that said, Rhodes turned around and looked aside, where there was the only necromancer left in the entire field.
North's figure appeared in Rhodes' sight.
Noticing that Rhodes was looking at him, North was stunned for a moment, and then realized the situation. His mouth opened slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but his throat seemed to be choked, and he could not say anything.
Complete words.
The conversation in the field, whether it was the words spoken by the Lich or the response made by Rhodes, were all heard by North. He naturally understood what Rhodes' move meant.
Following Rhodes' signal, the other lichs in the field also turned their attention to North.
"He is just an apprentice-level necromancer. Choosing him as a puppet will not have any impact?"
The voice of the unknown lich that had previously answered Phoenix's words appeared on the scene again, asking Rhodes this question.
Relying on their own perception, all the lichs in the field can easily judge that the necromancer that Rhodes indicated can only be regarded as a necromancer apprentice, and is far inferior to the previous Phoenix in terms of rank. Whether it is the level of spiritualism or his own temperament, this necromancer is inconspicuous among the lichs. If it weren't for Rhodes' actions at this time, the lichs in the field would even ignore him completely. p>
In the end, it was the Mother of the Earth, Asri, who calmed down the other lich's doubts about North.
"If it's just a puppet in name, we don't need the Necromancer to take action. We just need him to serve as a symbol in Diya. The strength of the Necromancer's apprentice also facilitates our control."
Following Asri's words, other lichs no longer questioned Rhodes's choice, and silence returned to the place again.
During this process, except for Rhodes who glanced at North a few times, no lich asked North for his opinion at all. It seemed that the necromancer could only accept all the decisions they made.
Rhodes' choice of North also made the Lich present roughly understand why he made the move to kill Phoenix.
In the presence of Phoenix, he is undoubtedly the best candidate to become a puppet. Both his diplomacy and leadership skills, as well as his ability to control the situation, are enough to reassure the lich in the field. In comparison, there is almost no
The lich would choose North, who is far worse than him.
Even Rhodes has to admit that Phoenix's ability, if he is made a puppet, will really confuse the public. Until the middle of the battle, the entire battle will advance according to the established plan, and there will be no big surprises.
deviation.
What Rhodes is worried about is that Phoenix's abilities in these areas are too strong. The progress of the expansion pack in the previous life has proved to Rhodes that even the lich will be bewitched by Phoenix's words, and Rhodes has no choice but to
I am worried that the existence of Phoenix will have an impact on the later stages of the entire campaign.
At this time, Rhodes did not have Sandru's strength at the same time in the expansion pack, and could not rely on strength to suppress everything. As the battle progressed, when Phoenix became the first person under the Lich, his voice gradually increased.
, he will inevitably provoke a conflict between the lich and the master of the artifact.
If Rhodes had Sandro's strength and could even kill the legendary lich, he would naturally not care about Phoenix's existence and wouldn't have to worry about any of his plots. But at this time, Rhodes was unable to do this.
A little.
As the battle progresses, the number of corpse witches increases tremendously, and the strength of all lichs joining this battle will undergo qualitative changes. By then, it is hard to say whether they will still be the same as they are now.
Rhodes can control all undead creatures related to it through the Ghost King's cloak, including all corpse witches transformed by lich.
However, when this ability has not yet appeared, no lich knew this. When Rhodes handed over the transformed Corpse Witch King to the lichs, they would only think that someone had cast a spirit on the Corpse Witch King.
Mark, whoever controls the Corpse Witch King, just like a regular undead creature.
Once the lichs know the truth, they naturally do not want to be restrained by the artifact, so that all the corpse witches they worked hard to transform in the battle will become Rhodes' subordinates. And if they are provoked by Phoenix at that time, there will probably be
What accident happened?
What Rhodes has to worry about is not just losing the artifact. Rowling, who is in Weering, is also the object of Rhodes' worries.
Relying on the effectiveness of the two artifacts, it would be difficult for the Lich to do anything to Rhodes without paying a huge price, but this was limited to Rhodes himself and could not take into account Rowling's existence.
In order to prevent Phoenix from destroying the entire battle and even posing a greater threat, Rhodes could only get rid of him in advance.
According to Rhodes' understanding of Phoenix, even if Phoenix is not killed and his life is left to serve in the next battle, Phoenix will definitely try his best to use his own means to replace North's position until the battle
After it is truly opened, Rhodes may never find any trace of North's existence.
In terms of ability, North may not be as good as Phoenix, but Rhodes doesn't care. Thinking of this, Rhodes couldn't help but look at North again.
