While still some distance away from Sandro, Rhodes took the initiative to stop himself and did not continue moving forward.
Widnina, who was behind Rhodes and was supervising his progress, also followed Rhodes' movements and stopped here.
Rhodes naturally had his own considerations in choosing to stop at this position.
Rhodes understood that because the casting of spells was extremely convenient, in order to prevent accidents from happening, ordinary mages would deliberately leave a certain distance during the conversation. The more powerful the mages were in a confrontation, the more they valued this.
At this time, the location Rhodes chose to stop was undoubtedly the most suitable location for him. It would not put Sandru on too much guard against him, nor would he be unable to find him due to the distance. Opportunity to cast Forbidden Orb Shard.
Because of Sandru's order, Rhodes now had enough reasons to come to him. Compared to the vampires who were on guard around him, Rhodes believed that once the magic barrier was deployed, he would be the first to get close to Sandro.
When Rhodes stood still here, Sandro finally moved his gaze away from Eric in mid-air and turned to look at Rhodes.
Rhodes was keenly aware that Sandru seemed to want to confirm something from himself with this move, but soon Sandru looked away again.
During this process, there was still a steady stream of corpse witches pouring out from the stairs leading to the top of the tower, as if they were going to fill the entire top of the tower.
Compared with the beginning, the number of undead creatures on the top of the tower has increased significantly. Even if new undead creatures arrive, it is only a change in quantity and cannot bring any substantial improvement.
At this time, Sandro no longer waited, looked at Eric above, and said softly: "Teacher."
Rhodes on the side also heard Sandro's words. What makes Rhodes concerned is that compared to before, Sandro's tone has changed significantly. It is no longer the kind of indifference that does not take everything into consideration with the blessing of the artifact. What is more contained in it is that A mixed emotion.
"When you used my identity to trick those heroes into collecting artifacts for you, why didn't you remember that I was your teacher?"
Hearing Eric's question, Sandro rarely answered.
Rhodes noticed that although Sandru didn't make any answer, there was still a certain divine light in his eyes, proving that he obviously didn't care that much about Eric's deception about obtaining the artifact.
"Teacher, have you ever understood the ritual of the Endless Night?" Sandro asked instead.
Sandro's inquiry undoubtedly made Eric realize something, and he answered without dwelling on the previous question:
"In the golden age of Brakada, the magic rituals created by the necromancers were used to transform themselves into lichs like undead creatures."
"I remember you asked me this question when you were in the academy."
Eric's answer was directly transmitted to the ears of the creatures on the top of the tower. Rhodes in the field also understood the meaning of the words.
Rod was not surprised that Eric knew the origins of the ritual of the Endless Night.
Rhodes knew that only a knowledgeable mage like Eric could understand this kind of information related to the history of Brakada, and even knew it in more detail than what was in the classics.
Rhodes was a little surprised as to why Sandro would mention the ritual of the endless night to Eric on such an occasion.
Reminiscing about the endless night ritual engraved on the wall at the second location, Rhodes seemed to realize something. In Rhodes' view, Sandro's mention of this on this occasion obviously had something to do with him. the goal of.
Turning his attention to Sandro on the field, Rhodes wanted to know what he would say next.
"Does the teacher know what is the most special thing about a lich?"
Sandro's inquiry this time undoubtedly made Eric frown.
"The most special thing? Apart from all the conventional aspects, it should be the ability of the lich to not decay and survive for a long time."
Rhodes noticed that Sandro's expression changed significantly after hearing Eric's answer.
A smile gradually appeared on Sandro's face, a wild and ferocious smile that Rhodes had never seen on him before.
Under the black barrier above his head, Rhodes' vision seemed to become unreal.
In a daze, in Rhode's sight, half of Sandro's face still maintained this smile, but the other half seemed to have lost all flesh and blood, and only half of the skull was left in the dark eye sockets.
This situation only appeared in Rhode's sight for a moment. When Rhodes recovered, everything returned to its original appearance.
"It will not decay due to time. As far as I know, in addition to lichs, there are some creatures that also have such abilities, including creatures made of pure elements, gods who transcend everything, and a combination of the two."
Eric's expression changed slightly: "What do you want to express?"
Sandro did not follow Eric's words, but said to himself:
"The core effect of the Endless Night Ritual is to replace the original body of the Necromancer with death energy. Because of this, the lich produced at the end of the ritual will be affected by the death energy no matter what spells it casts, and cannot use pure magic. element."
"In a sense, a lich with soul fire as its core and transformed through endless night rituals can also be called an elemental creature. It belongs to the branch of earth elemental creatures and is a death elemental creature."
After hearing this, both Eric and Rhodes' expressions gradually became serious. They had heard the meaning of Sandro's words.
"The endless night ritual can transform ordinary people into elemental creatures. Then using other magic rituals, it can also achieve similar effects and transform ordinary people into various types of elemental creatures."
"At the same time, due to the characteristics of pure elemental creatures, spell rituals not only give the transformed person powerful spellcasting capabilities, but also give him the ability to be incorruptible."
Hearing this, Eric wanted to raise his hand, but his raised hand still trembled slightly: "You mean..."
Sandro's face darkened, and he replied coldly: "Yes, Gwen Magnus, like the lich in Dia, is just the product of the magic ritual. The so-called God of Mage is nothing but the shadow of Braka. A scam by Da.”
