At this time, Rhodes was still observing in secret because he had not yet confirmed the location of the Necromancer.
Until now, the necromancer has only used fire wall and fire control magic. Both of these spells can be released directly at the target.
Since there is no exact trajectory, Rhodes cannot find out where the undead mage is hiding by relying solely on the fluctuation of magic. Therefore, Rhodes is still observing the situation on the battlefield.
As the battle progressed, the battlefield fell into a stalemate for a while. Whenever the wall of fire dissipated, the two men would replace the wall of fire at its original position, but other than that, there was no other action.
Apart from using the Slowness method on the ghosts, the mayor then stopped taking any action. He just relied on the skeleton warriors to resist the ghosts in front. The necromancer wanted to rely on the four ghosts in front to break the stalemate.
Come on.
At this time, the advantage of the mayor's combat experience was reflected. At this moment of stalemate, the mayor's skeleton warrior pressed forward with his shield, pushing the ghost back.
Facing the impact of the iron shield, because the speed of the Yinhun was slowed down and the cooperation between them became worse, they could only be forced to retreat. The rear of the Yinhun was exactly where the fire wall was.
Skeleton warriors gathered in large numbers in front of the ghost, trying to force the ghost into the wall of fire.
Just when the ghost was not far from the fire wall, a burning fireball flew towards the skeleton warrior from behind all the undead creatures.
The fireball passed directly through the fire wall and flew towards the back of the fire wall, while the ghosts on the side received orders from the necromancer and accurately avoided the trajectory of the fireball.
The fireball passed by these ghosts and directly hit the shield held by a skeleton warrior in front.
There was only an explosion, and the shield in the skeleton warrior's hand shattered. The skeleton warrior who was directly hit by the fireball was blown away by the fireball, and fell to the ground with the skeleton warrior behind it.
Within the scope of the fireball explosion, even with a shield as a defense, the Skeleton Warriors suffered considerable damage. The impact of the fireball explosion caused the Skeleton Warriors' original tight formation to be immediately dispersed.
In order to suppress the ghosts, almost all the skeleton warriors came to the front of the fire wall, so that they could rely on their numerical advantage to force the ghosts into the fire wall. Similarly, if it were not for the purpose of suppressing the ghosts, even if the necromancer behind fired a fireball, it might still be possible.
It is impossible to achieve such good results.
Just after these skeleton warriors fell to the ground and exposed their bodies that were originally blocked by shields, these ghosts did not waste such a good opportunity. Instead, they immediately took action and killed the skeleton warriors who had lost the protection of their shields in an instant.
Just relying on a fireball cast by himself, the necromancer achieved sufficient results. Coupled with the offensive of these ghosts, the mayor's skeleton warriors suffered considerable losses for a while.
However, this fireball also exposed the location of the Necromancer himself. Following the trajectory of the fireball, Rhodes found the possible location of the Necromancer at a glance.
For Rhodes, the best thing to do at this time is to continue to wait. Whether it is the mayor or the necromancer, since they have begun to cast damaging spells, in this case, the mana will be consumed quickly.
Once a mage's mana is consumed, no matter how powerful the spells he has mastered before, they will undoubtedly lose their original effectiveness at this moment. This applies to both necromancers and orthodox mages.<
/p>
However, Rhodes took action as soon as he saw the fireball being shot, lurking in the darkness and starting to move towards the Necromancer's position.
Rhodes knew that if he continued to wait, after the skeleton warriors in front of the mansion were cleared, the mayor would retreat directly into the mansion. Although there was a wall of fire blocking him, the mayor should have mastered the magic of fire control and could forcefully pass through the wall of fire.
If you return to the mansion, you will only be seriously injured at most.
If Rhodes didn't detect any abnormality from inside the mansion, he would definitely let the mayor retreat inside. However, according to the abnormality that Rhodes sensed from inside the mansion, it is best to keep the mayor outside the mansion. Therefore, Rhodes must do something.
Action.
Rhodes walked quickly in the direction of the necromancer for a while. Suddenly, the vampire rushed out from Rhodes and faced the ghost lurking in the darkness, preparing to launch a sneak attack on Rhodes.
The ghost was also not affected by the darkness. After noticing the lurking Rhodes, he immediately conveyed this to the necromancer who controlled it. Then he followed the necromancer's order and took advantage of the darkness to wait for an opportunity to attack.
.
Due to the darkness all around, although it provided Rhodes with the convenience of hiding, it also made it impossible for Rhodes to see clearly the surrounding situation. On the previous battlefield, he could see clearly due to the firelight generated by the fire wall.
If the vampire hadn't noticed Yin Hun's sneak attack first and stepped forward to attack Yin Hun, maybe he wouldn't have noticed anything unusual until Rhodes got to Yin Hun's side.
Seeing the vampires fighting with the ghosts, Rhodes was not surprised. Rhodes had expected in advance that there would be undead creatures around the necromancer for protection. But what surprised Rhodes was that the necromancer controlled
Holding so many ghosts.
Counting the one he killed originally, plus the ghosts currently fighting the skeleton warrior, the necromancer controlled a total of six ghosts.
However, except for the ghosts, the number of ghosts and zombies did not change much in this attack, but the number was similar to the last time.
Rhodes realized that the six ghosts, plus this large group of undead creatures, were what gave the necromancer the courage to take on this mission.
If it hadn't been for Rhode's surprise attack last time, which resulted in the death of a ghost, and the ghosts had to be left behind for protection, with six ghosts coming out at once, the mayor's skeleton warriors wouldn't be able to resist for long, even if they used magic.<
/p>
Even so, this necromancer is only at the apprentice level and has not yet reached the level of a formal necromancer. Once he reaches the level of a formal necromancer, in addition to the undead creatures he controls, the spells he casts will also undergo a qualitative change.
It won't just be like now.
Rhodes knew that before reaching the fourth level, mages would not master many self-protection spells. Among the low-level spells that could protect themselves, there were only a few such as ice rings.
The powerful life-saving spells of mages, such as teleportation and the like, are all of a high level, and if you want to learn them from the magic guild, you need to pay a certain price. This price is not only gold coins, but also many others.
Stuff.
While Rhodes was thinking about the information about this necromancer, the vampire was fighting the ghost.
As both undead creatures, facing the attacks of vampires, Yinhun did not try to dodge, but directly traded wounds with the vampires with each move.
Due to the dim light, Rhodes could not clearly see the situation in the field, but he could vaguely see the dark light flowing on Yinhun's body. When fighting the vampire, Yinhun relied on his unique recovery ability to restrain the vampire.
The ghost in front of him is obviously stronger than the ghost that Rhodes saw at the beginning. Even so, neither the vampire nor the ghost can kill the opponent in a short time. Even if they attack with all their strength, due to their combat experience, they can't kill each other in a short time.
Not bad, we still can’t tell the winner in a short period of time.
At this time, according to the instructions in Rhodes' spiritual mark, the vampires in the battle directly choose to transform into bats.
As a burst of black mist emerged, the bat flew out from in front of the ghost, but ignored the ghost in front of him and quickly flew in the direction of the original fireball.
Faced with the sudden changes in the vampire, the necromancer lurking on the side also realized this and quickly issued his own instructions to the ghost.
Yinhun did not stay in place, but tried to attack the bats that were scattered around. However, Yinhun's behavior only killed one or two bats at most, and the rest of the bats had already risen into the sky.
The bat flew in one direction, and the darkness had no effect on the bat. It didn't fly very far, and with rapid flight, the bat discovered the exact location of the Necromancer in the darkness.
In an instant, the bats seemed to have received some instructions, and they all gathered towards the necromancer's position, preparing to attack him.
The ghost wanted to return to the Necromancer to help him deal with the bats in the sky, but was blocked by a sword blade.
When the vampire found the location of the necromancer, Rhodes originally wanted to go up and help, but in the end he decided to stay here to deal with the ghost in front of him, leaving the vampire to fight the necromancer alone.
Rhodes remembered that in the previous battle, the necromancer had cast fire spells many times. If nothing else happened, he should be a necromancer specializing in fire magic.
Among low-level fire magic, there is a lack of large-scale damage spells such as ice magic rings. The only area-of-effect spells that can be considered are fireballs.
In the previous game, as a high-level mage, Rhodes naturally knew the basic spells of each department very well.
Therefore, after determining that the necromancer majored in fire magic, Rhodes directly asked the vampires to deal with him. Due to the lack of large-scale damage spells, the necromancer had difficulty dealing with these bats.
Just as the bats came to the necromancer, many ghosts nearby rushed over first and blocked the bats.
Previously, the necromancer received messages from the ghosts and discovered other enemies, so he transferred many ghosts back to him.
In the view of this necromancer, the attack path in the field was blocked by the wall of fire anyway, and these ghosts could not cross the wall of fire to attack the skeleton warriors for a while, which would have an adverse impact on the entire battle.
In the center of the battlefield, in addition to a large number of walking corpses, there are still some ghosts left. They are ready to wait until the wall of fire disappears and then immediately attack the skeleton warriors. However, the number of these ghosts is undoubtedly much smaller than before.
Although the Necromancer made many ghosts retreat, he did not withdraw all the ghosts on the battlefield. At this time, he still did not forget his main mission.
For a time, many ghosts came to the front of the necromancer and blocked the bats with their bodies.
Unlike ordinary undead creatures, ghosts have no flesh and blood on their bodies. Facing these ghosts, the bat's bite cannot achieve much effect, but is quickly killed by these ghosts.
After realizing this, the bat quickly flew into the air, trying to get past the ghost and directly attack the necromancer behind.
But the necromancer obviously expected this. In order to avoid the bats in the sky, the necromancer let the ghosts surround him and kept changing positions. For a while, the bats could only be blocked by these ghosts.
On the side, Rhodes also started fighting with the ghost.
As early as when the vampire began to transform into a bat, Rhodes did not care about exposing his position. In order to see clearly the enemies around him, he lit the torch in his hand.
At this time, the torch was thrown aside by Rhodes. Although it could not completely illuminate the surroundings, it also provided Rhodes with a field of vision to deal with the enemy.
When fighting against the ghost, Rhodes felt the power of the ghost in front of him.
Although they are all the same kind of creatures, there are also differences in strength among the ghosts. Some ghosts have just been upgraded from ghosts and have just entered the third level, so their strength is naturally relatively low, while some ghosts are far from the fourth level.
Not much. And the ghost Rhodes is facing is the latter.
Rhodes realized that in order to ensure his own safety and prevent enemies from launching a surprise attack on him, the necromancer chose to place the most powerful undead creatures beside him.
Facing the Yin Hun in front of him, no matter how Rhodes swung his sword, he would be blocked by it one by one. As for the Yin Hun's attack, Rhodes also had no way to resist it. He could only dodge in all directions, but he couldn't achieve anything for a while.
Advantages.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Rhodes knew that he could not defeat the ghost in front of him not because of the difference in moves, but because of the difference in basic attributes.
In order to improve his spellcasting ability, Rhodes invested a lot of attribute points in the knowledge attribute. At this time, during the battle, facing a ghost one level higher than himself, Rhodes' melee attacks were naturally a little weak.
Yin Hun once again repelled Rhode's attack. Just when Yin Hun was about to attack Rhodes, Rhodes suddenly raised his hand, and a spell quickly condensed in Rhode's hand.
Since there was only one creature around, the ghost, Rhodes chose the ice arrow that could cause the greatest damage.
Ice arrows were shot at Yinhun rapidly. Since the distance between the two was too close during the battle, Yinhun had no way to dodge in the face of this ice arrow that was coming straight at him.
The ice arrow hit Yin Hun's body and then exploded, causing considerable damage to it. At the same time, Yin Hun's entire body was covered with a layer of frost.
Yin Hun trembled. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Rhodes immediately stepped forward and slashed with his sword, but was blocked by Yin Hun again.
At this time, due to the damage caused by the ice arrow, facing Rhodes in front of him, Yinhun changed his previous fighting posture and did not choose to continue the attack. Instead, he concentrated on defense. The purpose was to hold Rhodes back and prevent him from getting closer.
The Necromancer at the rear.
During the battle with Yin Hun, Rhodes could see through the firelight coming from the side that Yin Hun's body was flashing with blue light all the time, recovering from the injuries caused by the ice arrows. Rhodes knew that dragging
Over time, it will only be detrimental to yourself.
Rhodes found the right moment and took advantage of the ghost's opportunity to resist his attack, and released another ice arrow.
This time, the ice arrow hit the original position again. After being hit by spells one after another, Yin Hun was undoubtedly hit hard. Taking advantage of the moment when Yin Hun lost his defense, Rhodes quickly stepped forward and slashed hard, combined with the damage caused by the spell.
The impact directly decapitates the ghost.
Perhaps it would be difficult for Rhodes to kill the ghosts in close combat alone, but under the influence of spells, the ghosts are no match for Rhodes.
After getting rid of the ghost in front of him, Rhodes immediately looked in the direction of the vampire.
Rhodes noticed that under the attack of the surrounding ghosts, the number of bats was greatly reduced. In comparison, the ghosts did not lose a few.
When a certain number of bats are lost, the bats quickly leave these ghosts and gather at a not far away location.
The necromancer on the side also discovered this and raised his hand, ready to cast a spell at any time.
Although he continued to dodge, under the bat's successive attacks, the necromancer also suffered some injuries, but the injuries were not serious. As soon as the bat came to his side, he was immediately killed by the ghost on the side.
.
Just after the group of bats gathered, the vampire's figure just appeared, and he saw a fireball flying towards him.
Faced with a sudden spell attack, vampires are also aware of the dangers in the fireballs, so they have no choice but to transform into bats again.
As a burst of black mist emerged, the fireball passed through the black mist and hit the ground not far away, blasting a small crater on the ground and sending sparks flying.
As soon as the bats emerged from the black mist, they immediately flew rapidly into the sky. All the bats were like this, and none of them stayed in place.
Through the existence of the spiritual imprint, after receiving Rhodes's signal, the vampire understood that its target was no longer the necromancer in front of him.
Regarding the sudden changes in the group of bats, the necromancer had not realized what had happened, but only saw Rhodes holding his sword and rushing towards his position.
