With a group of zombies blocking the retreat, the wolves suddenly became commotion.
There are only ten walking corpses, and there are still some corpses behind them.
These corpses are no different in appearance from walking corpses. The only difference is that they do not have soul fire. Rhodes relied on spiritualism to activate the soul fire of the corpses and transformed them into walking corpses.
It's not that Rhodes doesn't want to activate the soul fire of all zombies, but that Rhodes has no mana.
Before activating the soul fire of the walking corpse, Rhodes first changed the title he wore to [Necromancer], and the level of spiritualism was increased by one level, which is equivalent to adding an extra skill point to spiritualism.
Relying on intermediate spiritualism, when Rhodes summons zombies, each zombie only consumes 1 point of his own mana.
Originally, relying on spiritualism to create undead creatures required a large amount of mana. Most of these mana were used to transform the body of the corpse and turn them into an undead race. Only a small part was used to activate the fire of the soul.
But here, because there is enough death energy in the tomb, the transformation of these corpses' bodies is almost complete. They only need to activate the soul fire to transform into walking corpses.
Rhodes guessed that this was also the reason why Airot had so many undead creatures. With the death energy provided by this tomb to help him complete most of the spiritualism process, all Airot had to do was to provide the body and activate the soul.
the fire.
Of course, the transformation in the tomb takes a certain amount of time. So when Rhodes woke up for the first time, he only saw the corpses that were almost completely transformed, and did not see the Necromancer Apprentice.
The soul fire of low-level undead creatures cannot produce any special effects, and can only provide the instinct to kill the living. Coupled with the improved effect brought by intermediate spiritualism, Rhodes can awaken a body with only 1 point of mana.
Walking corpse.
Even so, after awakening ten zombies, Rhodes's mana was still exhausted.
If the corpse is allowed to generate soul fire on its own without spiritualism, even if the body reaches the standard of an undead creature under the nourishment of death energy, it will still take a long time to generate soul fire.
In the turbulent wolf pack, the wolf king quickly observed the surrounding situation. After confirming some things, the wolf king's eyes returned to Rhodes. It realized that the enemy in front of it was the controller of all this.
The Wolf King let out a howl, and the wolves immediately stopped commotion. As if they understood what the Wolf King meant, the wolves looked at Rhodes one after another, and then rushed towards Rhodes.
The Wolf King wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to kill Rhodes. As long as they could kill Rhodes, they would still have a chance to escape from the tomb.
After seeing the actions of the wolves, Rhodes issued an order through his spiritual mark. The skeleton warrior beside him immediately took a step forward and raised his shield to face the wolves in front of him.
Rhodes himself, holding a sword, stood behind the skeleton warrior, looking for an opportunity to take action.
Rhodes naturally would not choose to go forward and fight the wolves head-on. Going forward to fight head-on when there are undead creatures is no different from fighting the wolves outside the tomb.
According to Rhodes' estimation, ten zombies, excluding the Wolf King, can deal with the remaining wolves. Rhodes only needs to hold off the wolves here and wait until the zombies from behind arrive.
Behind them, the zombies were left behind by the wolves due to their speed. They could only follow slowly. I don't know how long it would take to catch up.
Since the main tomb is not spacious, if the wolves want to attack Rhodes, they must deal with the skeleton warriors in front.
Originally, the Skeleton Warriors relied entirely on instinct to fight, and many times their instinctive reactions gave the enemy loopholes. But now, with Rhodes' control and combined with his own powerful attributes, the Skeleton Warriors' strength has more than improved.
The powerful advantages can finally be brought into play.
Suddenly, the skeleton warrior in front blocked the attack of the wolves.
Under Rhodes' control, the Skeleton Warrior always kept his shield in front of his body, focusing on defending vital parts. The sword in his hand would only be cut off when the wolves bit his leg bones.
The Skeleton Warrior is not afraid of pain or injury. It is difficult to kill the Skeleton Warrior in a short period of time just by relying on the damage caused by the wolf biting the leg bone.
When facing the skeleton warriors, although the wolves have a numerical advantage, because the tomb is not spacious, in order to leave room for dodge, only a few wolves at most can attack the skeleton warriors at the same time.
The remaining wolves could only huddle at the entrance of the tomb. Although they wanted to attack the enemy in front of them, they had no choice for a while.
Seeing the walking corpses gradually approaching, the wolf in the rear began to get confused, not knowing whether to continue to obey the Wolf King's orders or to prioritize attacking the enemy in front of him.
Rhodes' focus is entirely on controlling the Skeleton Warrior. With the combat experience provided by Rhodes, the Skeleton Warrior seems to be another ruthless Rhodes who is not afraid of death, resisting the wolves at the front.
Under Rhodes' control, ordinary wolves not only failed to threaten the skeleton warriors, but were killed and injured one after another.
Looking at the walking corpses surrounding the wolves from behind, the Wolf King also knew that he could not drag on any longer and had to quickly find a way to deal with the enemies in front of him, so he began to gather his magic power.
Spotting the opening after the skeleton warrior drew his sword, the Wolf King spit out a magic arrow and shot it at the skeleton warrior in front.
There are not many vital points on the Skeleton Warrior's body. Since the skull contains the Soul Fire of the Skeleton Warrior, the only thing that can cause death is the skull. Rhodes has always asked the Skeleton Warrior to hold up a shield to protect his upper body to prevent the Wolf King's magic from hitting the cervical spine.
Even if the remaining parts are damaged, the skeleton warrior can continue to fight for a period of time.
At the beginning, Rhodes sent a skeleton warrior to block the incoming wolves, but he was killed after not holding on for long. The reason was that the Wolf King's magic hit its cervical spine. This was similar to Rhodes' decapitation to kill the skeleton warrior.
A truth.
If he hadn't been hit by magic, the skeleton warrior could have held off the wolves for a long time just by relying on the bites of the wolves.
The Wolf King may also have noticed this. When the iron shield of the Skeleton Warrior was tightly guarding his cervical vertebra, the magic arrow did not hit the Skeleton Warrior's cervical vertebra, but instead shot at its lower abdomen.
The Skeleton Warrior was unable to recover in time and was hit by the magic arrow. If it were Rhodes himself, he might still have a chance to avoid it, but the spiritual imprint alone would not allow the Skeleton Warrior to dodge in time.
Due to the characteristics of skeletal creatures, the magic arrow passed through the place where flesh should have been, and directly hit the skeleton warrior below the spine.
There was an explosion, and the Skeleton Warrior fell to the ground. The spine was connected to the entire lower body of the Skeleton Warrior. It broke directly after being hit, and the Skeleton Warrior lost the ability to move.
With just one spell, the Wolf King severely damaged the Skeleton Warrior.
Since the passage is slightly narrow, only one Skeleton Warrior can block the wolves outside the tomb. But at the same time, the Skeleton Warrior also blocks Rhodes, preventing Rhodes from attacking the wolves together with the Skeleton Warriors.
At this time, the skeleton warrior fell down and had very little health left. When the other wolves saw the Wolf King's magic hitting the skeleton warrior, they immediately attacked the fallen skeleton warrior.
Just when a wolf was about to bite the cervical spine of the fallen skeleton warrior, a flash of silver light flashed, the wolf's head fell, blood spattered everywhere, dyeing the gray bones on the ground red, and Rhodes took action.
