Rhodes drove the centaur undead and ran all the way according to the general direction he had originally written down.
Rhodes, who was riding on the centaur, didn't know what was happening behind him, but when the elf adjutant used the pendant on his body, Rhodes felt a chill, as if he was being stared at by something. p>
At this time, the centaur was in the forest, surrounded by dense bushes. This environment affected the centaur under Rhodes to a certain extent. Since it was traveling through the dense forest, the centaur undead could not increase its speed.
.
From behind, a bat flew quickly. After slowing down to the same speed as the centaur, the bat accurately landed on Rhodes' shoulder.
Since the centaur could never increase its speed, even the vampire who finally evacuated the village had already rushed to Rhodes' side.
Rhodes realized that it was impossible for the court mage to let him leave so easily after seeing the corpses of a large number of dwarves and elves in the village. This feeling of being targeted was probably due to some method used by the court mage.
Know your current position.
Although Rhodes was aware of this, he had no good way to deal with it for a while. He could only let the centaur undead under him increase his speed to the extreme.
Rhodes knew that with his current strength, he was still no match for the Palace Mage.
At this time, Rhodes opened the attribute panel and found that his experience value had reached 5640 points.
While checking the properties panel, Rhodes checked the system log.
Of the experience points I currently have, only about 3,000 were obtained by myself in the process of destroying the dwarf villages, more than 1,000 experience points were obtained through the centaur leader, and the rest were left over from the last upgrade. p>
At this time, Rhodes immediately upgraded his character level.
"4000 experience points were consumed, and the remaining experience points were 1640. The professional level was upgraded to Level 3, Spirit Summoning Swordsman Level 5..."
"Get 1 free attribute point, get 1 skill point..."
"There's still one level left..." Rhodes realized this.
All it takes is one more level to raise Spiritualism to its strongest state. Rhodes knows that even if he does nothing and simply waits for a few days, he can gain enough experience points through the Centaur leader's campaign.
.
Due to the possible pursuit of soldiers behind him, after upgrading his character level, Rhodes quickly ran towards the place where he originally received the mission. If the court mage was really chasing him, he would have a chance of survival only by escaping in that direction.<
/p>
Rhodes knew that places similar to the previous missions were likely to have high-level necromancers stationed there, waiting for the war to expand further. And his academic status at this level allowed him to get the protection of high-level necromancers.
.
In terms of internal relations, the necromancer can be extremely cruel to his subordinates. Even if he kills apprentices on the battlefield at will, he will not be punished.
Once other forces intervene, the relationship between the necromancers will immediately change. Even if the high-level mage in Eli wants to come to the place where the task is taken and forcibly abduct any apprentice, the other necromancers will be attacked.
unanimous resistance.
Rhodes knew that because of his status as an academy, even if a court mage came to the camp to receive the mission, he would be blocked by the high-level mage stationed here. This is the biggest advantage that his status in the academy can bring.
Convenience.
The academy status allows Rhodes to avoid being killed by Eli's powerful creatures in the camp where the academy is located. However, the academy completely ignores and even encourages the fights between necromancers.
Feeling the sense of peeping coming from behind, Rhodes turned around and glanced in the direction where the feeling came from, but he could only see darkness. But the feeling of being stared at in his heart was clear.
He told Rhodes that the enemy was chasing him.
As Rhodes moved forward, this perception became closer and closer. Rhodes could even hear the sound of horse hooves coming from behind him. If it weren't for the dark surroundings, Rhodes would have been able to see the enemy.
Rhodes confirmed that the enemy had locked his position through unknown means and was chasing him at this time.
Since there was still some distance from the camp where the academy issued the mission, Rhodes could not get rid of the enemies behind him by speed alone. In order to get rid of the enemies behind him, Rhodes took out a treasure from the space ring, which was the Dark Shelter that he had used previously. Black clouds gathered above Rhodes' head and began to slowly spread to the surroundings. As the black clouds just appeared, the centaur driven by Rhodes galloped out of the range of the black clouds.
At night, using dark shelter can obviously achieve greater results. Therefore, without knowing what method the palace mage uses to lock himself, Rhodes can only use this method to try to get rid of the team behind him.
It would take a certain amount of time for the dark shelter to fully take effect. Therefore, Rhodes did not rush directly towards the camp. Instead, he was at the edge of the black cloud and moved sideways as the black cloud spread.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves coming from behind also moved in the direction of Rhodes. Realizing this, Rhodes did not panic at all, but still maintained his moving direction, waiting for the black cloud to spread. p>
The pursuers at the rear obviously noticed the anomaly, but their speed did not slow down at all. Instead, they let their horses sprint towards Rhodes at full speed.
Because Rhodes was surrounded by black clouds and accelerated by the pursuers, he could already see Rhodes in front of him.
After noticing that the undead creatures under Rhodes were centaurs from Eli, the elves chasing after them were obviously furious. For a time, their hatred for the necromancer made the morale of these elves extremely strong. With the only remaining light around him, Rhodes also saw these chasing Eli creatures. Rhodes noticed that among these creatures, the leader of the elf was not dressed as a mage.
At this time, several arrows shot at Rhodes rapidly, and Rhodes immediately took out the iron shield from the space ring to block it.
Because he was in the middle of a rapid attack, the arrow hit Rhodes' shield and then fell to the ground, failing to cause any harm to Rhodes.
Even so, the elves chasing behind did not stop this move. It seemed that only in this way could the anger in the hearts of these elves be vented.
Even if this did not achieve much success, the Elf Lieutenant still did not stop the elves under his command, but allowed them to fire arrows on their own to attack the Necromancer in front.
The result of this was that Rhodes led the surrounding elves around the black cloud. Due to the movements of the elves' hands, the speed of pursuit was affected, and they did not catch up with Rhodes.
Not long after, these elves discovered that although there were still a lot of arrows in the quivers behind them, they could not clearly see the figure of the Necromancer in front of them.
