According to Rhodes' idea, these actions taken by Lich Stephen can also explain her own attitude in some aspects.
Although Rhodes has reached an agreement with Lich Stephen, and Rhodes has even passed through the Gate of Time and Space and arrived in the City of Death, Rhodes does not believe in his heart that as long as he completes what he should do, Stephen will
I will definitely teach you the secret method.
Especially according to Rhodes' prediction, perhaps the last effect of the Forbidden Magic Ball fragment will be used by him soon.
At that time, without the magic ball fragment as the final trump card, if Stephen does not recognize the agreement and even attacks Rhodes in turn, Rhodes will have no way to deal with it.
Just from the brief contact with Stephen, Rhodes naturally cannot feel the true thoughts that exist in Stephen's heart. The peeping eyes that have brought great help to Rhodes in the past are facing Stephen who is of a higher level and does not know how to survive.
It has existed for a long time and has completely lost its effect.
It was also under this situation that Rhodes deeply felt the strength gap between himself and Stephen. In the absence of the fragments of the Forbidden Magic Ball, if Stephen insisted on taking action, Rhodes would not be able to put up a decent resistance at all.
.
Even if they are both sixth-level beings, Stephen's comprehensive strength has surpassed the many high-level mages of Brakada that Rhodes has seen before. This is what the Lich has produced after a long period of accumulation.
Advantages.
The gap in strength naturally prevented Rhodes from truly letting go of his promise to Stephen. He could only find ways to observe from another angle to obtain useful intelligence.
If Rhodes is similar in strength to Stephen, or even stronger than Stephen, there is no need to worry about this, but for Rhodes at this time, when his strength is not yet satisfied, he can only choose to act cautiously.
At this time, what Rhodes cares about is the special things that exist in Turo.
In Rhodes' view, the thing that Stephen handed over to Tello may, to a large extent, reflect Stephen's attitude towards himself. If he can understand this, Rhodes will also be able to understand what will happen next.
Able to prevent.
However, that special item had already been included in the space ring by Turo. Although Rhodes sensed this, he had no way to observe it.
Rhodes knew that even if he tried to verify this with Tello, he might not get any results.
The only thing Rhodes can rely on is the Peeping Eye he has mastered. But unfortunately, through the existence of the Peeping Eye, Rhodes can only know from Turo's consciousness that that is an extremely important thing.
Apart from the items, there is only the awe of Stephen in Tello's heart.
Even if he noticed the existence of this item, Rhodes could not get any more information for a while. After realizing this, Rhodes could only feel a sigh in his heart.
In Rhode's view, neither Stephen in the Death Tomb nor Sandru existing here are far beyond what he can currently contend with.
For these characters who have already been involved in the main plot of the second expansion pack, even if Rhodes has truly entered the sixth level, he must be extremely cautious when dealing with these existences, let alone now.
Before returning to Diya, Rhodes did not expect that he would have such a relationship with two special beings, Stephen and Sandro, and be involved in such an incident.
In Rhodes' view, the task assigned to him by Stephen has already affected the entire Diya situation. Regardless of whether he completes this task in the end, it will have a certain impact on the entire Diya.
Since these extremely powerful beings are involved, Rhodes cannot be too careful in this situation.
Without the Forbidden Magic Ball fragment, even if Rhodes learned about the existence of Lich Stephen when he first met Tello, he would have been extremely hesitant about entering the Death Tomb.
Although the purpose of Rhodes' trip was to find a secret method to solve the problem for Rowling, in the absence of the Forbidden Magic Ball fragment, in Rhodes' view, this completely put the possibility of success in the hands of an unfathomable person.
The behavior in the hands of an unpredictable lich is not a wise choice.
But similarly, it was the existence of the Forbidden Magic Ball fragments that made Rhodes choose to enter the Death Tomb, and agreed to Lich Stephen's conditions, and finally came to the City of Death.
The special thing of the forbidden magic ball fragments gave Rhodes enough confidence to face the existence of these powers that far exceeded his own. At the same time, it also allowed Rhodes to achieve something that he could achieve no matter what if he relied on his own strength alone.
Something that cannot be done.
At this time, Rhode seemed to have thought of something. His originally indifferent eyes suddenly became sharp, and his eyes were shining with a desire to choose and devour others.
In Rhodes' view, now that he is here, this trip is an important opportunity for him to improve his strength.
According to Rhodes' idea, he wanted to maximize the effect of the magic ball fragments and bring the greatest benefits to himself. Ordinary goals obviously cannot satisfy this.
The experience points obtained through the Forbidden Magic Ball fragments are also insignificant to Rhodes at this time, and cannot fundamentally change his own strength.
Rhodes understands that the only things that can make a fundamental change in strength are the artifacts that exist in the game, and this is what Rhodes has always longed for.
Regarding the use of the Forbidden Magic Ball fragments, after arriving in the City of Death, Rhodes made up his mind to use it on Sandro, the peerless necromancer in the city.
As early as when he obtained the Forbidden Magic Ball fragment, Rhodes made his own predictions on how to use it to maximize the improvement.
At that time, Rhodes realized that only by using it on the peerless necromancer in the second expansion pack could he bring about the greatest improvement. Just to solve Rowling's problem, Rhodes
This can only be postponed.
What Rhodes didn't expect was that he would be able to come to the City of Death from the mission assigned by Stephen, and not long after, he would be able to see Sandro's existence with his own eyes.
According to Rhodes' prediction, once the situation develops as he expected, even though the use effect of the Forbidden Magic Ball fragments has been exhausted, what he can obtain is two complete combined artifacts!
