Two days later.
The heavy snow outside the village has long since stopped. After losing all the villagers, the interior of the village has returned to its original silence. And around the village, there seemed to be an extremely ominous atmosphere.
If a powerful mage appeared here, he would be able to easily feel the death energy surrounding the village, but he would not be able to find any undead creatures here.
In a house in the village, Rhodes had just finished a meditation.
After restoring the mana to full value, Rhodes converted part of the death energy and injected it into the Mother of Souls for storage.
In the previous process, Rhodes had performed this behavior many times, and the mother of dead souls' absorption of death energy was still far from reaching its limit.
After converting less than half of his mana, Rhodes was about to continue meditating when he suddenly sensed a message from the Mother of Dead Souls.
After two days of waiting, traces of creatures finally appeared outside the village, and the undead creatures lurking around the village were alarmed.
After the Mother of Dead Souls learned about these situations, she immediately let Rhodes know this. Rhodes knew that this was the Silver Cliff City force that he had been waiting for for a long time.
Unable to obtain accurate information from the Mother of Dead Souls, after realizing this, Rhodes stopped staying in the house, called Rowling on the side, and walked out of the house.
As soon as Rhodes walked out of the house, he saw these creatures around him.
While Rhodes was meditating, the entire village was surrounded by an army at some point. Among this troop, the leader is a knight wearing gorgeous armor. Not only that, the horse sitting on him is also covered with a layer of silver-white armor.
This force had obviously discovered something unusual around the village. Most of the members of the force clenched their weapons and looked in the direction of Rhodes as if facing a formidable enemy.
Through the perception of the accompanying mages in the army, these people already knew the strong death energy around the village. Although they did not know what happened in the village, they still raised their vigilance to the highest level when facing Rhodes who did not know his identity. .
In this case, the leading knight was the first to react and did not care about Rhodes' identity. He immediately asked Rhodes: "Who are you? Where is the village chief here? Enke, the lower-level servant, come out. see me."
Although he didn't know Rhode's identity, the knight obviously didn't take it to heart.
Regarding the real mission of this trip, only this knight among this group of people knew enough information. As a confidant of Silvercliff City Lord Ailon, this knight obviously did not want to say anything more to Rhodes.
In this knight's view, everything in this village does not need to be taken care of. Even the village chief here was just a low-level servant. If he had not been lucky enough, not only did he not die in the war, He has also made certain achievements and is willing to follow Aron to Bracada, but he is not qualified to become the village chief.
Similar to this mining village, the village chief can be said to have absolute control over the creatures under his control. Only when higher-level personnel arrive, the village chief's rights will be restricted.
According to the information told to him privately by the city lord Ailon, if the villagers here dare to resist, the knight even has the authority to kill them all. In this case, the knight certainly wouldn't care about the villagers here.
Rhodes noticed that this troop immediately surrounded the village before discovering anything unusual. And looking at their membership and the sophistication of the equipment in their hands, even if they rushed to the front line to fight, Rhodes would not have any doubts.
But for such a powerful force, their goal is very obvious. They are coming for this mining village, or in other words, they are coming for the dead soul crystal that exists inside the mining village.
If the information provided by the village is correct, the village chief has already reported the situation of the Soul Crystal and seems to have expected this.
When Rhodes had obtained the Mother of Souls, the village chief did not have the courage to resist this force with Rhodes. Instead, he chose to expel Rhodes, blaming the fact that the treasure was taken away entirely on Rhodes. , to protect the village.
But, it is a pity that the village chief did not even wait for the arrival of this army. His choice eventually led to the complete destruction of the entire village.
Looking at the knight in front of him, Rhodes did not answer his words.
When the knight was able to accurately tell the identity of the village chief, the force he belonged to was also directly determined. It was Silver Cliff City from the same side as the village chief.
After understanding this, Rhodes said nothing more and just gave an order to the Mother of Dead Souls.
In an instant, with a lot of snow and fog rising, the army fell directly into chaos.
Even though they were well prepared to face the attack, when the attack actually came, this unit was still caught off guard.
When Rhodes gave the order to attack, the Mother of the Undead immediately controlled the undead creatures lurking around and launched an attack on the army.
Generally speaking, since the formation of this unit has been deployed, even if it faces an ambush, it can handle it well. But to their surprise, the ambush turned out to come from the snow under their feet.
It turned out that before the meditation, Rhodes had been prepared for all this while looking at the heavy snow falling in the sky.
Since the village is not very large, there are only a few ways to completely surround it. Rhodes simply guessed a few of the most likely locations, and then let the undead creatures lie lurking in the snow, waiting for Silver. Someone from Yacheng.
Due to the special physique of the undead creatures, it is difficult for even high-level professionals to lurk, but they are able to perform it very well. In addition, after the strength of the mother of undead has been improved, these undead creatures played an extremely important role in the ambush. big effect.
In the snow, undead creatures appeared one after another and immediately attacked the humans around them.
In this case, few people can react immediately. Even if you react and try to parry the attacks of these undead creatures, you will immediately be shocked by the strength of these undead creatures.
Many weaker humans even fell directly to the attacks of undead creatures.
Facing these newly appeared corpses, the Mother of the Dead immediately took action, releasing a large amount of death energy from them and transforming them into undead creatures.
Seeing their fallen comrades immediately stand up and attack themselves with a stronger attitude, the morale of this unit began to show signs of collapse.
