According to the information provided by Turo before, Rhodes had the impression that there was an extremely powerful vampire group near the Death Tomb.
At this time, even though there was no sign of City Lord Tamik, Rhodes met an evolved vampire here. The emergence of this special situation also made Rhodes realize that there might be some connection between Tamik and the nearby vampire group.
During the march, Tello seemed to notice Rhodes' observation of the guide in front of him, and Tello took the initiative to say to Rhodes:
"I believe you have noticed that the person who is leading the way for us now is not an ordinary person, but a powerful vampire. The city lord Tamik we are going to meet is also an undead creature of this race."
"Relying on the advantages of his own race, Tamik has recruited a large number of vampires for Lord Stephen for countless years."
"As such a special being, Tamik has a lofty status among all the death knights controlled by Lord Stephen, and is deeply respected by Stephen. Otherwise, he would not be able to become the Lord of the City of Death."
"In previous missions, I have met Tamik and cooperated with him, so I have a deep impression. Perhaps it is because of this that Mr. Stephen asked me to introduce you to Tamik gram."
Taking the initiative to tell Rhodes a lot of information about City Lord Tamik, at this time, Tello seemed to have recalled something, and then said:
"In addition to recruiting special undead creatures, Tamik is also responsible for training the dark knights under Lord Stephen. According to the information I know, this has a certain relationship with Tamik's unique talent."
"If nothing else happens, Tamik's men should control one of the most elite troops of terrifying knights. This is a reward from Lord Stephen for his unique talent."
These words spoken by Turo undoubtedly attracted Rhodes' attention completely. What concerned Rhodes was, in addition to the information Turo said about City Lord Tamik, there was also the terrifying knight mentioned in Turo's words.
In Rhode's impression, the Terror Knight is not some low-level undead creature. Whether it is the Dark Knight or the Terror Knight, they are the most special existences among all types of undead creatures.
Except for a few undead creatures transformed from the corpses of powerful creatures such as bone dragons, or corpse witches who can cast the cloud of death, who can surpass the Dark Knight in strength, the Dark Knight's strength has reached the level of conventional The apex of undead creatures.
As the Terror Knights who have advanced through the Dark Knight and have higher attributes, their strength is naturally more powerful. Even the bone dragon that Rhodes once controlled was far from the Terror Knight's opponent when it was first transformed. .
Rhodes believes that such an army composed of terrifying knights, once it fully demonstrates its strength, may be able to sweep across all places in Diya where there are no lichs, similar to the City of Lament where Rhodes once lived. Any way to face these powerful undead creatures.
However, what Rhodes did not expect was that such a powerful army of terrifying knights would be randomly rewarded by Lich Stephen to his death knights.
According to the information Tello said, Stephen did not pay too much attention to these death knights who were so powerful that even Rhodes needed to take them seriously. It seems that these terrifying knights who are powerful and can easily change the internal situation of Dia are nothing in Stephen's eyes.
Through the information mentioned in Tello's words, Rhodes once again felt the power of Stephen. After countless years of accumulation, the number of undead creatures Stephen controls has exceeded everyone's imagination, and this is just one of the lichs in Dia.
After learning about the existence of this terrifying knight army, Rhodes also understood why Tamik became famous in the battle of the second expansion pack.
Compared with the Lich who was hiding at the end and just let his death knights take action, existences like Tamik who fought at the front were more likely to be noticed by the players at the time, especially since Tamik was still Controlled a powerful army of terrifying knights.
In Rhode's impression, it is not an easy task to complete the creation of a dark knight or a terrifying knight.
To achieve this, in addition to strict requirements on the necromancer's own transformation skills, more importantly, there are great restrictions on the materials required for transformation.
The corpses left after the death of low-level creatures naturally cannot be used for the transformation of the Dark Knight. To achieve this, the corpses left by professionals above the official level must be used.
Among these, and within the territory of Erathia, the corpses of the knights themselves are the best and can achieve the best transformation effect.
The corpse of a high-level knight, after being transformed by a necromancer, is enough to become a powerful and terrifying knight. However, even if those low-level necromancers can transform the corpse of a high-level knight, most of what they get is just some A higher-ranking walking zombie, not a real terrifying knight.
Knights who take the initiative to pledge allegiance to the Necromancer partly due to a change in philosophy can also be called Dark Knights, but they do not have the characteristics of the undead creatures of the same name.
For this reason, a unique method of transforming the undead is spread among Diya. Under the control of the Necromancer, he can directly transform knights loyal to him into dark knights.
When this transformation is completed, the resulting Dark Knight will be more focused on the existence of a Death Knight in terms of characteristics. While retaining part of its memory, it can continue to improve its own strength.
In the opinion of many necromancers, this special transformation method was itself studied by lich, and only the existence of lich would continue to make such attempts.
What is significantly different from other undead creatures is that the dark knight's soul fire does not exist in their heads, but in their chests.
The abnormality of soul fire also gives the Dark Knight some special abilities. During the battle, even if the Dark Knight is beheaded, he will not suffer too much damage, and even his overall strength will not be greatly weakened. He can continue to fight as a headless knight until the battle is truly resolved. Win or lose.
