Looking at the large number of terrifying knights outside the Soul-Calling Tower, Rhodes undoubtedly discovered something worth paying attention to.
The vampire leading the way seemed to have noticed Rhodes' doubts about the terrifying knight, but he did not explain anything to Rhodes, and just led Rhodes forward.
Rhodes noticed that in addition to the Terror Knight, there were also a large number of other undead creatures surrounding the Soul-Calling Tower. In addition to the undead creatures belonging to Tamik, there seemed to be undead creatures from other forces.
This situation that appeared in front of him made Rhodes realize that it seemed that the undead creatures in the entire City of Death were attracted by the possible anomalies in the Soul-Calling Tower.
Among the many undead creatures, the relationship between them was not as harmonious as Rhodes expected. What makes Rhodes concerned is that the objects that the terrifying knights were originally guarding against were the undead creatures around them.
Under the shock of the terrifying knight's powerful strength, these undead creatures naturally did not dare to do anything unusual. In Rhode's view, if it weren't for the existence of these terrifying knights, perhaps a battle would have broken out around the Soul Resurrection Tower.
What surprised Rhodes was that the targets these terrifying knights were guarding against were vampires that Rhodes was very familiar with. The vampires who appear here and are hostile to the Terror Knight are not evolved vampires like Tamik, but native vampires with extremely obvious characteristics.
Although Rhodes had doubts about the abnormal situation here, especially the existence of these native vampires, he did not raise it to the vampire in front of him, but followed it towards the group of undead creatures.
Soon, Rhodes arrived outside the Soul-Calling Tower and discovered the figure of City Lord Tamik.
In Rhode's sight, Tamik was still dressed as before, but at this time, she was like one of those terrifying knights, riding on a fully armed undead horse, maintaining order around her.
As if he noticed Rhode's arrival, Tamik turned his horse and took the initiative to turn his attention to Rhodes who was standing aside.
The vampire responsible for guiding the way, after bringing Rhodes here, gestured to Tamik, and then joined the other undead creatures around, leaving only Rhodes alone in front of Tamik.
"The Soul-Calling Tower is about to open, I believe you are ready." Looking at Rhodes aside, Tamik said calmly.
After hearing Tamik's words, Rhodes did not give his answer immediately. Instead, he looked around, as if he was guarding against something, and seemed to be affected by the undead creatures around him.
"You don't need to be too nervous. These undead creatures around you are not closely related to your mission and will not threaten your life."
"While waiting, the native vampires near the Death Tomb also began to become restless."
"My men told me that these native vampires seem to be preparing for some big move, awakening many long-dormant king-level vampires one after another, including even the oldest and longest-lived hero Degar."
"In my impression, the last time the hero Degar awakened was about four centuries ago. At that time, Degar, as the owner of the vampire cloak, was active in Diya and once established a kingdom of native vampires. Become an immortal ruler alongside the Lich."
"Unfortunately, immortality is just a name for it. After all, Degal does not have the ability to never decay like a real lich. For many long years, Degal can only survive by sleeping. And what it has established The vampire kingdom has long since declined and been forgotten by everyone."
"Only a lich can achieve true immortality. I hope you can successfully complete Lord Stephen's mission during this trip."
Seemingly noticing Rhode's doubts about the large number of undead creatures around him, Tamik took the initiative to explain to Rhodes what happened during this period.
After learning from Tamik that there were so many undead creatures and even many terrifying knights around, Rhodes didn't care about it at this time. Rhodes' attention has been transferred to the vampire hero Degar mentioned by Tamik.
With the memory of the second expansion pack in his previous life, Rhodes had the impression that Degar also played a great role as an important hero on the Dia side in the Battle of the Shadow of Death.
However, Rhodes could not recall the specific deeds Degar did in the Death Shadow Battle, and could not obtain more useful information through this method.
In the Battle of the Shadow of Death, Dia's Necromancer side had an extremely large number of heroes, far more than any other force. In this case, Rhodes' memory of some specific heroes was naturally not that great. Clearly, I can only recall such a hero in my impression.
From what Tamik said, Rhodes realized that it was Sandru's arrival and the vampire-like cloak-like treasure on his body that triggered this series of changes. Even the long-sleeping king-level vampire was awakened by the presence of Sandro.
After realizing this, Rhodes had a rough idea of the undead creatures gathering around him.
According to the information that Rhodes had learned before, although the Lich Stephen who existed in the Death Tomb had noticed the anomaly in Sandru early in the morning, he did not want to alert the snake so early and trigger a series of unknown changes. He chose a gentler approach to explore his true purpose.
This is naturally the purpose of Rhodes' trip. If Lich Stephen had not planned this at the beginning, Rhodes would not have been able to obtain the secret technique in Lich Stephen's hands by completing the mission.
In this case, before learning Sandro's true purpose, Stephen would definitely not want him to be disturbed by other undead creatures. Even if the undead creature that came to disturb Sandro was a king-level vampire hero, Stephen would try his best to disturb him. Avoid this from happening.
As Stephen's subordinate, Tamik naturally has to perform this task. Before investigating Sandro's true intention, he needs to protect this spiritual tower.
Even if Sandro's general strength could be detected through the testing of these native vampires, Stephen also did not allow this. Even if it is a trial, it must be carried out within a controllable range. Obviously, it cannot rely on this group of native vampires.
