Chapter 77: Exploration of the Mansion II

 After taking the book next to him, Rhodes read through it. After confirming the contents of the book, Rhodes put it down.

This book, like the previous one, records a large amount of magic knowledge. The difference is that the knowledge recorded in this book is more simple. Although the whole book is filled with all kinds of knowledge, from the perspective of knowledge

In terms of importance, it is completely inferior to the original one.

If the content recorded in the original book corresponds to the four series of intermediate magic, this one only reaches the elementary level. There are still no spells recorded in the book.

At this time, Rhodes realized that the mayor's spells should be recorded in a special book, and that book should be carried by the mayor.

The mayor obviously will not leave the magic book that records all his spells here. If Rhodes does not choose to attack the mayor after entering the mansion, but instead searches for items inside the mansion, once the magic book is found by Rhodes,

The mayor has undoubtedly exposed his trump card.

As for these other books, although there is a lot of magic knowledge recorded in the book, these are only the most basic knowledge of magic. They are only of great help to apprentices and will not be of much use to powerful necromancers.

.

The mayor cannot carry all these magic books with him, and even if these books are discovered by Rhodes, it will not matter. Therefore, the mayor leaves these books here.

Putting the book aside, Rhodes picked up the mayor's manuscript from the table and started to read it.

The manuscript records the mayor's understanding and thinking about various spells, which is somewhat similar to what was recorded in previous books, but is more messy. The mayor obviously wrote down the knowledge he learned here in advance, and after sorting it out,

Then copy it into the spell book.

Rhodes put down the manuscript in his hand and rummaged under the table. After confirming that there were no hidden compartments, he focused his attention on the bookshelf behind him.

Rhodes came to the bookshelf behind him, took down a book from it, and began to look through it quickly. After taking a few glances and confirming the types of books, Rhodes sorted the books and put them on the table.

Rhodes took down the books on the bookshelf one by one and placed them on the table, but there were also many books that Rhodes put back on the bookshelf after looking through them.

After finishing all the books on the bookshelf, Rhodes found a number of books on the table in front of him. Rhodes divided them into several piles according to their types.

Among them, the largest pile of books has roughly the same style, but the contents recorded in them are completely different.

The reason why Rhodes divided these books into a pile is because these books are all magic books that have been used by other necromancer apprentices.

The spells recorded in these magic books were very messy. Rhodes checked these magic books carefully. Judging from the previous records in the magic books, these magic books belonged to different apprentices, and most of them came from the same magic academy.
p>

Rhodes realized that there was only one reason why these magic books from different apprentices could appear in the mayor's study, and that was that their owners had died in the hands of the mayor for some reason.

After the mayor learned the magic recorded in the book, he placed these magic books on the bookshelf like trophies.

Since each apprentice masters different spells, the mayor learned their spells after killing these apprentices. Because of this, the mayor can master the complex magic of various departments.

Rhodes turned the magic books to the back, and all the places where magic should have been recorded were torn out, leaving only incomplete fractures.

At this time, Rhodes took a few more magic books, turned to the back of the book, and found that they were all the same, with varying numbers of pages torn out from the back. Therefore, for the remaining magic books in this pile,

Rhodes didn’t try again.

Rhodes realized that since the mayor knew that leaving spells would leave flaws, he dared to put all these magic books here. Obviously, he was not afraid that Rhodes would learn spells through these magic books. Therefore, among these magic books,

Apart from some basic knowledge, there are no spells.

After realizing that he could not learn spells from the mayor, Rhodes sighed.

Rhodes picked up a book from another pile and started reading.

This book was written by the mayor himself and recorded the mayor's life. The mayor seemed to attach great importance to this book and placed it in a separate column on the bookshelf.

According to the records in the book, the mayor was originally an apprentice at the Necromancy Academy. After an encounter, he obtained a low-level bone vine. After his strength reached the second level, he applied to the academy to come here and practiced spells.

While cultivating bone vine.

Rhodes read the contents of the book carefully. According to the contents written in the book, the mayor has been in the town for many years and has dealt with many such apprentice attacks before.

Due to the existence of the bone vine, the mayor was able to survive every attack and even killed the apprentices who came to get their magic books.

Among them, the most dangerous one was to deal with an apprentice who mastered the art of disguise. The book records in detail the process of the mayor's battle with him.

The apprentice relied on the method of disguise to enter the mansion and came to the mayor's side. However, because he did not master a powerful spell, when he was close to the mayor, he only released a few magic arrows and failed to kill the mayor.

He was only seriously injured and eventually killed by the mayor's skeleton warrior.

In addition, there were many battles with other apprentices, and the mayor was the one who survived in the end.

In the last few pages of the book, the mayor wrote down a lot of speculations about the possible war that will happen next, as well as some of the mayor's thoughts.

After finishing reading the book, Rhodes learned a lot about the mayor's life.

It's a pity that the mayor's body has been destroyed by bone vines. If not, with these undead crystals in his hands, Rhodes can make them into higher-level undead creatures.

At this time, of the books that Rhodes had taken down from the bookshelf, only the last one remained that had not been read by Rhodes.

Rhodes picked up the book. This book was also written by the mayor himself, and it recorded some of the habits of the bone vine.

The book mostly records the mistakes made by the mayor when cultivating the bone vine, as well as some experiences that may be used. It does not record the weakness of the bone vine at all, nor the evaluation of its combat capabilities.

After reading this book, Rhodes has finished reading all the books he took out earlier.

There are still many books on the bookshelf. They are all pure magic knowledge. The importance of knowledge varies. For Rhodes, these books are of little use.

Rhodes continued to search the study, trying to find some secret mechanisms, but in the end he failed.

After walking out of the room, Rhodes continued to look for the next room.

Arriving at a corner on the second floor, Rhodes entered an unlocked room.

The room was filled with the smell of blood, but it had dissipated a lot at this time. There were dark red blood stains everywhere in the room, and there were many instruments used to deal with corpses on the surrounding tables.

Observing the environment in this room, Rhodes knew that this should be the main location where the mayor created undead creatures.

At this time, in Rhode's perception, the death energy in the room was relatively strong. Although it was not as good as the location of Bone Vine, it was much better than other locations in the mansion.

Rhodes concentrated on sensing the source of the death energy around him. According to the guidance of his perception, Rhodes came to the center of the room and took out a dead soul crystal from a hidden grid under his feet.

Compared with the dead soul crystal in Rhodes' space ring, the dead soul crystal in Rhodes' hand is not big. It is not even comparable to the dead soul crystal in the vampire's tomb. It can only barely provide death energy.
Rhodes put the Soul Crystal into the space ring and continued to explore the room, but found nothing of value, so Rhodes could only exit the room.

After continuing to search on the second floor, and letting the ghost knock open the locked door again, Rhodes came to the mayor's living room.

After entering the room, Rhodes rummaged around and carefully checked all the places where items could be placed.

In the wardrobe, except for a few black robes, there are no other styles of clothing. The mayor obviously does not pay attention to dressing up.

Rhodes opened the locker on the side. There were a lot of gold coins inside. In addition, there were some gems. Under the light of the fire, the surface of the gems was shining.

Rhodes put these belongings into the space ring and continued to search, but found nothing.

The treasures that Rhodes hoped for were not found in the room. If they were treasures that could be used in battle, the mayor would obviously take them with him.

After realizing this, Rhodes stopped searching carefully. There were still several rooms on the second floor of the mansion. Rhodes quickly opened them to check. Sensing that there were no high-value items, Rhodes directly exited them.
At this time, Rhodes had already completed exploring the interior of the mansion. Apart from some belongings, Rhodes did not get anything, and some simple gold coins were of little use to Rhodes at this time.

Since the search for the mansion had been completed, Rhodes no longer stayed, but held the torch in his hand and started to light the entire mansion on fire.

The location of the bone vine was downstairs, but in order to make the entire mansion burn, Rhodes first set fire to the second floor. On the way, Rhodes entered every room that Rhodes had searched and ignited the contents.

Items.

Rhodes walked down the stairs, and the flames burned all the way up the stairs to the first floor.

After going down to the first floor, Rhodes was still the same as before, setting fire to all the rooms he had visited before.

After Rhodes finished doing this, the entire mansion burst into flames, and the fire gradually became more intense.

When he came to the door of the room where the bone vine was, Rhodes did not try to enter the room, but just wanted to set the surrounding items on fire.

Rhodes knew that the bone vine had regained a lot of strength after devouring the mayor, and the originally severed vine had also recovered. If he rashly entered the room in order to light the fire, he would probably be attacked by the vine.<

/p>

Just when the torch in Rhodes' hand was about to touch the door, Rhodes felt the danger keenly.

At this time, in Rhodes' line of sight, a vine was hitting him at high speed, and Rhodes quickly dodged to avoid it.

Rhodes retreated a distance. Even though Rhodes was a little far away from the room, the cane was still hitting Rhodes.

Rhodes took out the long sword from his space class and faced the attacking cane. But the cane ignored the weapon in Rhode's hand and directly entangled the torch held by Rhodes.

The cane quickly pulled the torch and retreated. When the cane contracted, the huge force generated made Rhodes' body unstable, and Rhodes had to let go.

The cane pulled the torch into the room and knocked it out after a few blows.

At this time, Rhodes realized that the length of the rattan had obviously increased compared to the original length.

Although the strength of Bone Vine has improved, it has not made a qualitative change in the overall strength of Bone Vine. Without the mayor's spell, Facing Rhodes' strategy of setting the mansion on fire, Bone Vine still has no way to deal with the surrounding flames.
Although the torch in Rhodes' hand was snatched away by Bone Vine, since there were flames everywhere, Bone Vine's behavior was just a desperate struggle.

Rhodes arrived not far from the rear, where it had already begun to burn.

Using the flames on the ground, Rhodes rekindled a torch, returned to its original position, and ignited the ground.

Although this place is still some distance away from the room where the bone vine is located, Rhodes doesn't care, because the entire mansion will burn, and the flame will naturally be close to the bone vine's location.

Then, Rhodes retreated all the way. When Rhodes arrived at the gate of the mansion, the interior of the mansion was already filled with flames.

The flames illuminated the entire mansion in red. When he originally searched the interior of the room, Rhodes deliberately opened all the windows in the room. At this time, when exiting the mansion, Rhodes did not forget to open the door of the mansion.

Rhode's action caused the flames to burn quickly, and thick smoke rose from the inside of the mansion, just like the original black clouds.

It would take some time to burn down the entire mansion, so Rhodes did not pay attention to the situation inside the mansion for the time being, but walked towards the corpse of the previous necromancer.

At this time, outside the mansion, the black clouds in the sky completely dispersed. Rhodes crossed the courtyard where the battle was originally fought and saw the corpse of the necromancer not far away.

Rhodes came to the corpse of the necromancer and began to search for the items on his body.

After rummaging around, Rhodes found a magic book, and found a lot of gold coins and a high-quality undead crystal from the Necromancer's pocket. In addition, Rhodes also found a magic book from the Necromancer's body.

A pendant emitting death energy was found.

Rhodes put the gold coins and the soul crystal into the space ring, then took the pendant in his hand and began to examine it.
