Under the influence of the endless night ritual, lich's ability to control death energy far exceeds that of any other creature. Any spell they release will be accompanied by extremely strong death energy.
This is the characteristic of the lich itself. No matter how powerful the lich is, this inherent characteristic cannot be changed.
The erosion caused by the energy of death can undoubtedly be brought to the extreme in certain spells cast by lich, and the effects produced are far beyond what can be achieved by creatures other than lich.
With the corrosive effect produced by the death energy, any spell cast by the Lich can cause a strong corrosive effect. For creatures with lower levels and who have not mastered spiritualism, they have no way to resist it.
The resulting erosion effect.
However, at certain times, the death energy attached to the spell restricts the lich itself.
After the transformation of the endless night ritual, for those lichs who were not good at casting spells but were good at controlling undead creatures, this incidental ability to death energy has undoubtedly greatly improved their spellcasting abilities.
A substantial improvement.
Even if it is just a relatively basic Death Cloud, once it is cast by a Lich, the damage it can cause far exceeds the limit that an ordinary necromancer can achieve, not to mention that in addition to the Death Cloud, the Lich can also use the death energy to
The erosion property is added to any spell it casts.
For those necromancers who are already extremely good at spells, after transforming themselves into lichs through the endless night ritual, the forced addition of death energy destroyed their original spellcasting system.
The original characteristics of the spells cast by the lich will be suppressed to a very low level, and the only thing left is the highly corrosive death energy.
Due to this characteristic of the Lich itself, the inclusion of death energy in the casting of spells cannot be decided according to the Lich's own wishes. This cannot be changed as long as it has gone through the endless night ritual.
No matter what type of spell it is, after it is cast by a lich, only the original corrosive effect of the death energy is left, without the characteristics of the spell itself.
This may not be obvious in some spells, such as space spells, but for damage spells, this feature is particularly obvious.
And this is also an important reason why Rhodes does not want Rowling and himself to choose to become a lich.
In Rhodes' view, transforming oneself into a lich through the endless night ritual means that the necromancer has completely given up the ability to cast all kinds of spells, leaving only the purest spells related to death energy, and instead uses
The focus of one's own strength is on the accumulation of undead creatures.
Even if the lich who has been promoted through the endless night ritual has not lost the ability to cast various spells, the real effect of the spells is only equivalent to an enhanced version of the Death Cloud.
It is precisely this that makes Rhodes unwilling to finally be promoted to a lich through the endless night ritual.
Whether it was the experience gained in his previous life or a series of past experiences, Rhodes was clearly aware of the powerful effects of spells.
In Rhode's eyes, it is no exaggeration to say that the legendary mages existing in Brakada, after mastering various powerful fifth-level spells, are comparable to a team of magicians in terms of individual strength alone.
A battle-hardened legion.
Only under the influence of a special artifact like the Forbidden Magic Ball would it be difficult for these legendary mages to exert their strength. If replaced by another artifact, perhaps the entire battle would subside under the spells of these mages before it broke out. Since he has long understood the powerful effects that spells can produce, Rhodes is naturally unwilling to give up his spellcasting ability in this situation.
In Rhode's view, the changes to his spellcasting system brought about by being promoted to a lich are really difficult for him to accept.
No matter what kind of spell is cast, the final effect is no different from the cloud of death. It is impossible for any mage to accept it easily, let alone Rhodes at this time.<
/p>
As for his own spellcasting ability, Rhodes conducted some evaluation before arriving at the Death Tomb.
In Rhode's opinion, whether it is compared with the players of this period in the previous life or with himself at this level, his current spellcasting ability has surpassed it by far.
At this time, among the various spells that Rhodes mastered, there was the real fifth-level spell of Meteor and Fire Rain. Rhodes' ability to master it must be attributed to the fragment of the Forbidden Magic Ball in his hand. Regarding this point
, even a true high-level mage may not be able to compare with Rhodes.
Because of this, in Rhode's view, even if his strength increases again, his spellcasting ability is still an extremely important part of his overall ability, and he cannot give it up easily.
Once you transform yourself into a lich through the endless night ritual, under the influence of death energy, all the spells will undoubtedly lose their original effects.
The long lifespan of lich gives them enough time to conduct research on spells, but obviously there is no such good thing. Even if the lich can accumulate huge undead creatures, it still has the ability to be no weaker than the same.
Spellcasting abilities of orthodox mage of rank
As soon as the Endless Night ritual ended, the Lich lost the ability to fully cast spells, and the only spells it could cast were under the influence of death energy.
In addition to himself, Rhodes also needs to consider the existence of Rowling.
Before that, Rhodes had long been aware of Rowling's unique spellcasting talent.
Perhaps it is the extra blessings brought to Rowling by her status as a born hero, or perhaps it is Rowling's own potential. In Rhode's view, if she can become an orthodox mage, in addition to the casting of spells, Rowling
The achievements that can be achieved in the end will obviously surpass Rhodes himself.
It is precisely because of this that in Rhodes' view, once Rowling finally chooses to advance to a lich, it is equivalent to completely giving up her unique potential for spell casting. Therefore, Rowling's progress
It seems even more uneconomical.
Because of this, what Rhodes has been considering is the class Rowling should choose when she next advances.
Fortunately, at this time, after previous analysis of the intelligence, Rhodes had realized that the information about the path Rowling could choose to be promoted to a class other than the lich existed in Sandru.
