As the leader of the wolf pack, the Wolf King has stronger physical fitness than ordinary wolves. The improvement in rank makes the Wolf King different from ordinary wolves in that he can cast spells and has the leadership skills to lead the wolf pack.
In addition to these, a higher rank also brings wisdom to the Wolf King that is different from other beasts.
When facing a powerful enemy, the Wolf King, who was supposed to be at the front of the wolf pack and had the best physical fitness, after turning on his wisdom, it is hard to say how much courage he still had left. Instead, he was replaced by a deep fear of death.
Perhaps because of this characteristic, the Wolf King is so sensitive to danger. When finding prey, the Wolf King can rush to the front, but when it comes to a real deadly battle, the Wolf King chooses to command his wolves to charge, while he
Release magic from behind.
He didn't want to get hurt, he didn't want to charge into battle, he just wanted to rely on leadership skills and magic to fight. The Wolf King's behavior made Rhodes sigh, this is human nature!
Because of this, the wolf pack ultimately failed. If the Wolf King relied on his physical fitness to lead his men to the front of the passage, and coupled with his magic, Rhodes would not be able to defeat the wolves so easily.
At this time, the Wolf King, who was avoiding the attack of the zombies, seemed to Rhodes that even though he was still huge, he was nothing more than a lost dog.
The Wolf King was only thinking about escaping and ignored the attacks of the walking corpses. He just rushed towards the gap between the walking corpses. However, since all the walking corpses were surrounding him, the Wolf King was unable to get past the numerous walking corpses for a while.
Rhodes saw an opportunity, used his spiritual mark to control a walking corpse, and grabbed one of the Wolf King's legs. The Wolf King couldn't dodge, and the leg behind his body was caught.
The Wolf King turned back directly and bit down on the rotting arm of the zombie. Then he twisted his body violently and tore off a large piece of flesh.
Only half of the skin of the zombie's arm is still connected, and the exposed bones can even be seen from the side.
Even so, the zombie still didn't let go. Instead, he took advantage of this opportunity and grabbed the wolf's leg with his other hand. The characteristics of the undead creature were brought into full play.
The fact that the walking zombie can grab the Wolf King's leg like this is the result of Rhodes' control. If Rhodes doesn't control the walking zombie, the walking zombie will only rely on instinct to attack the wolf king with its claws, instead of like this
Catch the Wolf King tightly.
When the Wolf King just dodges, it is difficult for the walking zombies to cause enough damage to the Wolf King, but catching him is different.
This is often the case. Undead creatures rely solely on instinct to fight. Even if they have a strong physique, they will not take advantage of it. Undead creatures need to be under the control of a necromancer in order to exert their greatest effect.
The Wolf King made an accident and was caught by the zombies. The bite he turned back was ineffective. Before the Wolf King could take any further action, the surrounding zombies surrounded him.
Under the control of Rhodes, the zombies grabbed at the Wolf King one after another, trying to catch the Wolf King.
One leg was grabbed, and the Wolf King was unable to move. Unable to dodge, he could only be grabbed by the zombies around him. During the struggle, the Wolf King lost his balance and fell to the ground.
After falling to the ground, the zombies held down the body of the Wolf King with their hands. Due to the large number of zombies, the Wolf King could not get rid of it no matter how hard it struggled. With the combined efforts of all the zombies, the Wolf King could only be pinned to the ground.
If the walking zombies were replaced by a group of people, even with Rhodes' command, they would not be able to cooperate so tacitly, and they would not be able to overcome the fear caused by biological instincts and directly knock the Wolf King to the ground with his hands like this.
Only necromancers can use such tactics when controlling undead creatures.
The Wolf King still wanted to struggle, but some zombies grabbed the Wolf King's legs, and some held the Wolf King tightly. The Wolf King's struggle was in vain.
Suddenly, the Wolf King felt that the pressure on his body was lighter. Just as he was about to roll over hard, he only saw a cold light coming from above. Then he felt a pain in his body, and then he couldn't feel anything anymore...
…………
"You have obtained the racing achievement [Undead Controller]."
"[Undead Controller]: Control undead creatures and kill an ordinary creature. The basic reward is control spirit 1."
"..."
"A brilliant victory! In this battle, you gained a total of 210 experience points!"
…………
Rhodes sheathed his sword, and since the Wolf King was dead, he asked the walking corpses around to retract their hands that were holding the Wolf King down.
Rhodes looked at the system log. In this battle with the wolves, he gained a total of 210 experience points.
Of these 210 experience points, only 60 points come from the Wolf King. The experience points provided by ordinary wolves are the same as those of walking zombies, which are 15 points.
Rhodes remembered that when he killed his apprentice Ailot, he gained a full 400 experience points. By killing this group of wolves, the experience gained was only half of that of killing Ailot.
This made Rhodes sigh, the more experience points can be obtained by killing heroes. Compared with creatures of the same level, the experience points that heroes can provide are about 5 times. The more powerful the hero, the more experience points are provided.
.
This is also to encourage players to challenge powerful heroes.
Among creatures of the same level, spellcasters can provide the most experience points. The two are combined into one. This is why the hero Airot can provide 400 experience points.
"200 experience points are consumed, and the remaining experience points are 145. The professional level is upgraded to level 2 swordsman level 3..."
"Get 1 free attribute point, get 1 skill point..."
After upgrading the character level, due to the current lack of mana, Rhodes allocated the 1 free attribute point obtained to knowledge.
While checking the system log, Rhodes also saw a prompt to obtain an achievement.
Rhodes looked at his character attributes. After the original five attributes, there was one more attribute called Spirit Control. At this time, there was only 1 point.
Controlling the spirit is an exclusive attribute of the Necromancer, which can be obtained through meditation or through a series of Necromancer achievements.
If you rely solely on meditation, it will be difficult to obtain control spirit unless you meditate deeply. Ordinary players rely more on obtaining the Necromancer achievement to improve control spirit.
Currently, Rhodes controls 10 zombies, and the mental mark of each zombie occupies 0.15 of the mental attributes. Even if some zombies have their legs bitten off or are seriously injured, the mental attributes occupied are not reduced.
After obtaining 1 point of control spirit, the 1 point of spiritual attribute originally occupied will be returned.
…
After killing the wolves, Rhodes did not stop there. Instead, he controlled the surrounding zombies and asked them to move the wolf corpses to the hall where the corpses were previously displayed, and put them together with the zombies who had not activated the Soul Fire.
Rhodes checked the wolf carcasses on the ground. Most of the wolf carcasses had quite a few wounds on them. They were cut by his own sword, and some of them were directly decapitated.
The decapitated wolf corpse cannot be transformed into an undead creature because it lacks the part that generates soul fire.
Among the wolf corpses on the ground, the Wolf King had the fewest wounds, with only one fatal wound. Rhodes deliberately did not let it suffer much damage, but pierced the heart with his sword.
Rhodes tried it and changed his title to [Necromancer]. After obtaining the spiritualism level 1, he used spiritualism on a wolf corpse on the ground. The system prompt he received was that 30 mana points were needed to kill it immediately.
Transformed into an undead creature. Rhodes' mana is obviously not enough.
Looking at the wolf corpses on the ground, Rhodes asked them to stay here for transformation. With the death energy provided by the tomb, Rhodes could save the mana to transform their bodies.
Now, Rhodes just needs to wait for the tomb to transform them.
The tomb was filled with the smell of blood. The original death energy seemed to be stimulated and became more intense. The death energy nourished the wolf corpses displayed on the ground. Rhodes didn't know whether this was good or bad...
Rhodes walked out of the tomb. After such a battle, it was still late at night outside.
Because the tomb was full of the smell of blood, and for some other reasons, Rhodes did not choose to meditate in the tomb, but returned to the place where he first meditated and sat down cross-legged.
The moonlight was still calm. If it weren't for the half-eaten walking corpses on the ground, no one would have known that a pack of wolves had come here.
