According to Rhodes' understanding of vampires, in addition to absorbing death energy, their improvement in strength also comes from the method of long sleep.
Due to the special characteristics of undead creatures, ordinary vampires may not be able to survive for an extremely long time as easily as a real lich, but they can still survive for an extremely long time.
For vampires, sleeping is a process that must be experienced in the process of improving their strength. Due to different talents, among vampires, the corresponding levels when sleeping comes are also different, and there are even huge differences. However, this kind of sleeping is of great help to the improvement of the vampire's own strength.
Relying on its own long sleep, a vampire can accumulate its own death energy and improve its rank over a very long period of time. Since there is no need to worry about one's own lifespan like other creatures, taking the initiative to sleep is also a good choice for vampires who are not strong enough.
In this case, vampires often need to consider the location chosen for eternal sleep very carefully. If the intensity of the death energy cannot be guaranteed, the improvement that even eternal sleep can bring is still limited.
In addition to this, in the state of long sleep, vampires have undoubtedly lost their ability to perceive the outside world. No matter how powerful they were in the past, they cannot use them while in long sleep, and other creatures that discover traces of vampires can easily gain access to them. Advantage.
However, these dangers are nothing compared to the benefits that long sleep can bring to vampires. By relying on the method of long sleep, vampires can not only obtain an improvement in rank, but more importantly, they can also awaken their own innate skills, which greatly improves their own strength.
Under the cover of the coffin, the vampire inside can be fully stimulated by the energy of death. The absorption effect of the energy of death is naturally much better than in other states, and it can better exert the effect of eternal sleep.
According to the information that Rhodes knows, although evolved vampires still have the ability to sleep for a long time to improve their strength, they rarely choose to sleep for a long time.
The higher the level of a native vampire, the more they value the improvement in abilities brought about by long sleep. Some powerful vampire kings will even remain in this state all the time, and will only be awakened by other vampires when something extremely abnormal occurs.
In Rhode's view, this is also the reason why the witch Jenny can easily defeat the large vampire group near the Death Tomb.
According to Rhodes' prediction, before the Shadow of Death, a battle involving all creatures in Diya, comes, most of the most powerful vampires will be in this state of sleep.
Due to the sudden arrival of the battle, when they were attacked by the witch Jenny, the most powerful vampires were not awakened by other vampires. This resulted in the clan being easily breached and even the sacred objects of the clan were taken away.
The firelight from the candlesticks illuminated the entire basement space. Through his own observation and perception of the remaining aura of undead creatures, Rhodes confirmed that this secluded house may have been used by a vampire not long ago. The coffin in front of him was a vampire. The place where he sleeps.
In Rhode's view, the secluded house he is in is undoubtedly extremely suitable for a vampire to sleep in. The sufficient death energy present in it is enough for the vampire to greatly increase its own strength during the process of sleeping.
Thinking of the undead creatures gathered outside the Netherworld Mansion, which were not under the control of the Necromancer and refused to enter, Rhode believed that the safety of the entire Netherworld Mansion seemed to have been guaranteed, but he had not found any specific traces yet.
According to Rhodes' understanding of vampires, even if they cannot choose to sleep forever to improve their strength, but encounter other situations that require rest and recovery, the existence of a coffin is often the first choice for these vampires.
Under the light of the fire, Rhodes could see the entire environment of the basement at a glance. After taking a final look at the coffin inside, Rhodes stopped observing and returned to the ground. The door is closed.
Unlike vampires, Rhodes, as a human, has no interest in the coffin in the basement. Even if he had to wait for a while to find the best opportunity, Rhodes did not want to lie in a coffin like a vampire.
In the entire basement, except for this coffin, there was nothing else worthy of Rhode's attention. After confirming this, Rhodes closed the basement door again and turned to observe other things in the quiet house.
While observing other rooms, Rhodes could clearly feel that the concentration of death energy around him was significantly different from the previous basement.
Although the concentration of death energy in the secluded house is much higher than that in the outside world, in Rhode's perception, the death energy in the surrounding rooms is far less than that in the basement. Obviously, the most core location in the secluded house is It was the basement that Rhodes had just observed.
Soon, Rhodes had completed exploring the entire secluded house. In the remaining rooms, there was nothing like coffins that made Rhodes interested. Instead, there was a thick layer of dust on various things, which had obviously not been used for a long time.
Rhodes noticed that there was nothing in the entire house for the use of the necromancer. Obviously, this secluded house was not prepared for the necromancer from the beginning.
After checking the entire secluded house and confirming that there was nothing unusual in it, Rhode stopped taking action and waited here.
After finding a relatively empty room, Rhodes simply cleaned the dust around him, then sat cross-legged there and began to perform the most basic shallow meditation.
Outside the secluded house, there are undead creatures providing perception, and Rhodes does not have to worry about missing the information from Tamik. Unlike deep meditation, Rhodes can interrupt the process of shallow meditation at any time without worrying about any backlash.
The fire on the candlestick had been blown out by Rhodes, and the house was once again plunged into darkness.
I don't know how long time passed. Rhodes, who had already entered a meditative state, saw a red light flashing in his pocket. It was dazzling, but it immediately fell silent without making any sound. Even Rhodes, who was meditating, could not Discover this.
