Rhodes quickly moved towards the mountains, and the surrounding environment gradually became abnormal.
Inside the original passage, the surrounding mine walls were still hard. Although there were quite a few cracks due to the explosion of death energy, it still took Rhodes digging hard after the spell hit to clear a path.
As the passage slowly extended, the space for Rhodes to move also began to shrink, which brought a lot of trouble to Rhodes. Due to the reduced space for movement, Rhodes was unable to dig into the mine wall with all his strength and could only rely more on the effects of spells.
However, Rhodes noticed that as he approached the location of the Mother of Souls, the surrounding walls gradually became extremely loose, and he could quickly break them open without even using spells. It seemed that before that, here The walls have been completely eroded by death energy.
After discovering this, Rhodes felt relieved. Although the entire mountain was shaking violently, it did not affect Rhodes' actions at this time.
Before this, Rhodes had also tried to absorb the surrounding death energy to replenish a little mana, but for some unknown reason, the surrounding death energy was extremely repulsive to Rhodes' absorption. Even the death energy originally released by Rhodes Energy cannot have any connection with Rhodes.
Rhodes knew that this should also be a method used by the Mother of Souls to block her from absorbing the surrounding death energy. Therefore, Rhodes should be more cautious about the use of mana.
Fortunately, Rowling caught up in time and cast spells one after another, allowing Rhodes to concentrate on clearing the road and solving Rhodes' problem. If Rowling hadn't been following behind, it wouldn't be long before Rhodes would have to find a way to escape from here, and the Mother of Souls would have to be buried deep in this collapsed mine.
Fortunately, due to the long-term erosion of the energy of death, the mine wall in front no longer requires the use of magic to clean. Even a group of orcs can do this quickly.
The degree of erosion inside the mountain was beyond Rhode's expectation. Logically speaking, when the entire mountain began to collapse due to the explosion of death energy, it should have collapsed long ago. But looking at the surrounding things, it seems that it can still hold on. A very long time.
Since the target has been locked, Rhodes does not need to adjust the direction, he only needs to move towards a position. Soon, Rhodes arrived at the location where the perception came from, which was where the Mother of Dead Souls was.
By the light of the fire in Rowling's hand behind him, Rhodes also noticed the scene ahead.
There seemed to be sparks flashing across the darker mine wall in front of them. When Rhodes got closer, he realized that these sparks were just illusory existences and were reflected by something existing on the mine wall.
When he reached this point, Rhodes stopped what he was doing and reached out directly to remove the thing from the mine wall.
Following Rhode's action, the rioting death energy around him gradually stopped, and the shaking of the mountain began to decrease. Although there were still falling rocks, it was unable to affect Rhodes at this time.

【Mother of Dead Souls】
Quality: treasure
Type: special props
Special attributes: 1. When creating undead creatures, the quality of undead creatures can be improved to a certain extent and sublimated. 2 Completely control the soul crystal in a large area.
…………
Through the news coming from the system, Rhodes also confirmed that what he was holding in his hand was the mother of dead souls he was looking for.
What made Rhodes pay attention was that the Mother of Undead already had her own consciousness and could transform undead creatures to defend and fight on her own, but the system did not mention this.
When he held the Mother of Dead Souls in his hand, Rhodes could even feel the unwilling consciousness inside it, but it had no effect. Once Rhodes discovered its location, no matter what it did, it would be useless. There is no getting away from this result.
The Mother of Undead can essentially improve the quality of undead creatures, and does not even need to consume the death energy of the Necromancer itself. As long as there are enough undead crystals, the Mother of Undead can directly extract the death energy and create undead creatures.
Rhodes recalled that there were only a few ways to directly improve the quality of undead creatures. For the Necromancer, being able to do this is tantamount to greatly increasing his strength.
Without the Mother of the Undead, a corpse of a second-level creature, even if the Necromancer's spiritualism level is sufficient, can only be transformed into a second-level undead creature at best. After that, if you want to increase the level of the undead creature again, you can only rely on time. accumulation.
However, after obtaining the Mother of Undead Souls, even non-level orc corpses can be transformed into undead creatures of about third level, and there are no restrictions. As long as there are enough corpses, a large number of transformations can be carried out.
It can be said that as long as they get the Mother of Dead Souls, any necromancer can do something good.
At this point, the effect of the Mother of the Dead is very similar to that of another artifact in Rhodes' memory - the Ghost King's Cloak. It can also improve the level of undead creatures, but compared to the Ghost King's Cloak, the effect of the Mother of the Dead is That's far from it.
Although it can improve the quality of undead creatures, the improvement effect of the Mother of Undead is fixed and has an upper limit.
For creatures with no rank, the Mother of Revenants may be able to raise them to around the third level, but for creatures that are themselves at the fourth level and above, the effect of the Mother of Revenants is minimal and cannot be used like an artifact. The effect of improvement increases with the controller's spiritualism level.
Moreover, every time the Mother of Undead enhances the attributes of undead creatures, she will consume a large amount of death energy. This death energy far exceeds the limit that ordinary necromancers can provide, so it can only be provided by the Undead Crystal. If there is not a large amount of gold coins, even the soul crystal cannot be provided, and naturally it cannot be transformed.
In contrast, creating undead creatures through the Ghost King's cloak consumes nothing, but can directly transform the corpses of ordinary people into corpse witches of level five or above. It can be said that it completely violates the concept of necromancers.
Facing such a powerful artifact, any necromancer will have a desire to possess it in his heart. The controller of the Ghost King's cloak is naturally worthy of this artifact. He is the protagonist of the second expansion pack, the peerless necromancer.
Rhodes has never stopped improving his strength, but when he thinks about the enemies he may face in the second expansion pack, he still feels a little unsure.
In any case, when the second expansion pack arrives, Rhodes, a necromancer, will need to return to Diya, and before that, he needs to improve his strength as much as possible in order to face the next battle.
