In Eli's vision, after Rhodes achieved this ranking, he would definitely use this ranking to increase his influence.
In itself, according to Eli's thinking, whether it was the strength shown by Rhodes in the process of refining the potion or the way he deliberately concealed his identity as a necromancer, it could explain a huge problem.
Eli knew that when one of the necromancers revealed his identity, Rhodes, who won the potion competition, would also take action.
According to the death energy that he felt from Rhodes in advance, among the necromancers, Rhodes who has this kind of death energy must have an unusual identity. Eli was confident that no matter how Rhodes defended the Necromancer, he would be able to find the problem and refute it.
After all, the extremely pure death energy felt from Rhodes, as well as the vague feeling Rhodes brought to Eli, proved to Eli what kind of person Rhodes was among the necromancers. exist.
Eli brought the topic to Rhodes because he discovered this and wanted to use this opportunity to expose Rhodes' flaws so that he could refute the previous point raised by the necromancer.
However, Rhodes' answer was beyond Eli's expectation. Eli did not expect that even if he won the potion competition and could easily change the current situation of the Necromancer, Rhodes' answer would be to change his own situation. Distinguish it from the Necromancer.
Under this situation, Eli couldn't say the words he originally planned to use to refute Rhodes, and could only think of other words to refute the third-ranked necromancer.
At this time, although Rhodes in the field had put on the original pendant and said those words to express his position, Rhodes' current situation has not changed much.
When the surrounding mages learned about Rhodes' identity, although many mages were confused by the words of the third ranked necromancer and thus had some new views on the necromancer, there were still many mages. He still maintains his hostility towards the Necromancer, even hatred from the bottom of his heart.
Among all mages, although such mages are in the minority, they still exist. Rhodes can clearly feel this from the sight coming from the surroundings.
In Rhode's perception, the hatred that some of the surrounding mages have for him seems to come not only from his identity as a necromancer, but also from his ranking in the potion competition.
When Rhodes' identity was pointed out by Eli and after Rhodes took off the pendant that concealed his identity, Rhodes could sense that the sight of the surrounding mages had changed significantly.
Many high-level mages could not accept this result for a while. When they learned that the winner of this potion competition was a necromancer, they were as if they were severely offended by the necromancer.
Under normal circumstances, although these high-level mages may have some dislike for necromancers, they would not rise to this level. From the eyes of these high-level mages, Rhodes realized that although he wanted to complete this potion competition as an ordinary mage, it was obviously difficult to achieve it.
Since he was within the demon banning ceremony, even though many high-level mages on the airship noticed him, Rhodes did not show any nervousness.
On the airship, the existence of the magic ban ritual undoubtedly limits the performance of all mages. Compared with other spaces in the airship, this high platform where the demon banning ritual exists may be the safest place.
This is also the reason why Rhodes can still remain calm after taking the initiative to reveal the identity of the Necromancer.
The existence of the magic ban ritual may be intended to prevent the magic potion from being lost or something unexpected happening on this high platform.
Even though there are all powerful high-level mages on the airship, without the magic ban ritual, no one can guarantee that if any unexpected situation occurs, the precious potions refined by these players will be lost.
The potions refined in the finals are undoubtedly a great wealth. Many contestants who refine potions have collected a large amount of precious materials and brought them to the airship for refining. If If it hadn't been for this final, maybe they wouldn't have used these rare materials for refining.
Any mage who participates in the potion competition understands the value of these potions, and therefore has no objection to the arrangement of the magic banning ceremony. It is precisely because of the existence of the demon-forbidden ritual that it gives the necromancer in it some confidence.
For Rhodes, being able to remain calm all the time has something to do with the existence of the Demon Banning Ceremony, but it is not entirely the case.
Before coming here, Rhodes also made a lot of preparations. Although Rhodes did not know that the finals would be held on an airship before the start of the finals, he still made full preparations for his own safety, and now, those preparations made before can come in handy. .
In Rhode's perception, since every high-level mage has a different attitude towards the necromancer, they also have different views on themselves.
Even those mages who hate necromancers extremely have a completely different level of hostility towards Rhodes. In Rhode's perception, the mage who is most hostile to him seems to be on the platform where the magic banning ceremony is located.
Although the existence of the magic banning ritual limits Rhodes' ability to use magic, it does not limit Rhodes' ability to perceive, whether it is the ability to sense the fluctuation of surrounding mana or the ability to sense hostility.
Following the direction indicated by his perception, Rhodes looked in the direction of the mage who was most hostile to him.
When Rhodes followed the direction of the hostility and saw the face of the mage, he was undoubtedly a little surprised. Rhodes discovered that this mage who was extremely hostile to him was actually the mage who ranked second in this potion competition.
After Eric's introduction earlier, Rhodes immediately realized that the identity of this mage should be Noson, the dean of a certain magic academy.
What made Rhodes extremely puzzled was that the hostility generated by Northam seemed to only appear after he revealed his identity as a necromancer.
In the previous potion competition, even when Eric announced the rankings of the players, Northam only ranked second, and he did not have such hostility towards himself. This made Rhodes feel a little surprised. .
