The swordsman heard the sound from the sentry tower, seemed to think of something, and finally stopped and returned to the village gate.
At this time, the village gate is still closed, with no intention of opening it, but at this time, the elves on the sentry tower are starting a heated debate.
The content of the argument is to prevent the swordsman in front of me from entering the village.
Since the swordsman's opponent was recognized as a vampire, and the swordsman was already seriously injured at this time, once he chased the vampire, he would probably be difficult to defeat, and the final result would be to be transformed into an undead creature. p>
The elves on the sentry tower couldn't bear the fate of the swordsman, so they asked him to stay. However, there were also a small number of elves who were not sure about the swordsman's origin, so some arguments arose.
In the previous battles, the swordsman showed great strength. When the necromancer doesn't know when he will attack, having one more helper can reduce losses.
Finally, due to the good nature of the elves and these reasons, they could not bear the swordsman's death in vain. The elves who disagreed were finally persuaded and agreed to let the swordsman enter the village.
The actual combat experience of these elves is not good. Since there are few disputes in Eri, for the elves, apart from spending time training various skills, they do not have much contact with other races. This is why these elves can be persuaded.
The reason.
Although the elves on the sentry tower agreed to let the swordsman enter the village, they still had to conduct some tests.
Under the gaze of the swordsman, the door of the village slowly opened, and then, several elves walked out of the village.
Walking at the front was an elf swordsman. He asked the human swordsman in front of him: "Who are you? Why do you appear here? What happened to the previous vampire?"
The elf swordsman's tone was not harsh, but rather concerned. During the debate on the sentry tower, it was the elf swordsman's continuous persuasion that had such a good effect.
The swordsman replied: "My name is Rhodes, and I am a swordsman from Saou Village. The Necromancer destroyed the village where I live. I fought with undead creatures along the way, and finally met the previous one not far from here.
Vampire... I also want to thank you all for helping me in the previous battle, otherwise I'm afraid..."
The swordsman in front of him is Rhodes who has finished his deep meditation. The previous battle with the vampire was exactly due to Rhodes' plan.
After listening to Rhodes' explanation, the surrounding elves obviously believed it a lot.
Since elves are naturally good at swordsmanship, they could tell that this swordsman truly mastered superb swordsmanship and was not just pretending, so they did not think of Rhodes as a necromancer.
Seeing the swordsman's tired eyes, a female elf next to him immediately stepped forward and said to the swordsman: "You must have been seriously injured. It is better to come to the village to rest so that you can better fight against the undead creatures." After listening, Rhodes thought for a while and then nodded.
At this time, the female elf said again: "Before entering the village, according to the general rules, I will conduct some checks on you. As long as you are not a necromancer, this check will not matter."
After saying that, the female elf stretched out her hand, pressed it on Rhodes, and began to explore.
In Rhode's perception, a magic element entered his body from the hands of the female elf. If Rhodes still had residual mana in his body, he would be extremely resistant to other people's magic elements entering his body, but at this time he
No response.
After confirming that Rhodes had no mana in his body, this magical element tried to probe Rhodes' spirit.
Rhodes knows that simply exploring mana is not enough to explain a person's identity. A mage can also consume all mana by releasing skills, but the level of mental attributes is difficult to hide.
Therefore, Rhodes's previous method of deep meditation not only consumes all mana, but more importantly, it can temporarily reduce mental attributes. If Rhodes' previous mental attributes were 15 points, this female elf would be able to detect abnormalities in an instant.
.
Judging from the results of the investigation alone, the female elf could not find any abnormalities, but her intuition as a spellcaster told her that it was not that simple. The normal investigation should have ended at this time, but the female elf tried to ask Rhodes.
Exploring deeper into the spirit.
As the investigation continued, Rhodes showed signs of pain at the right time, and then the magic element withdrew.
At this time, the female elf retracted her hand and shook her head at the other elves around her.
Realizing that her behavior was somewhat inappropriate, the female elf raised her hand and performed a healing process for Rhodes.
Following a feeling of itching and pain, Rhodes' injuries were relieved a lot, but what followed was a deep exhaustion.
After waiting outside the village for a while, Rhodes entered the village under the guidance of the surrounding elves.
When he entered, Rhodes saw several third-level combat dwarves observing him, but they did not come forward to question him.
Rhodes knew that his existence should have been known to the dwarves in the village. If the elves on the sentry tower chose to let him enter the village, they would notify the dwarves inside the village of the news as soon as possible. Rhodes also
There is no need to explain the origin to the dwarves again.
Walking along the road guided by the elves, Rhodes saw that there were many torches set up along the road inside the village, illuminating the road. As for the specific defense facilities in the village, Rhodes did not deliberately observe them. p>
Following the guidance of the elves in front of him, Rhodes came to a simple wooden residence.
Rhodes entered, and the elf swordsman he had seen before also followed him.
At this time, the elf swordsman said to Rhodes: "I'm sorry, because we are in an emergency period, for the safety of everyone in the village, please stay here for a few days."
Although the elf swordsman was convinced that the person in front of him was just a swordsman, for the sake of safety, he still could not place him with ordinary people and could only choose to isolate him for a period of time. Therefore, the elf swordsman's tone contained
A hint of apology.
After listening, Rhodes didn't say anything more, but nodded, indicating that he understood the current situation.
The background that Rhodes originally told was fabricated based on the memories of his predecessor. Rhodes was not worried that they would find any abnormalities.
Rhodes knew that even if they were willing to investigate what he said, they would not be able to determine anything unless they directly obtained information from within the Necromancer Academy.
Compared with the anomalies in the background, Rhodes was more worried about being exposed by the items on his body. Therefore, before coming here, Rhodes took off his space ring and pendant and gave them to the vampire for safekeeping.
At this time, Rhodes, who had no treasure except a sword, had lost a lot of strength, but the possibility of exposing his identity was also minimized.
