After walking out of the Gate of Time and Space, Rhodes returned to Saou City.
According to the discussion with Stephen after returning to the Death Tomb, Rhodes needs to occupy the important area in Vilning in the shortest possible time.
After the completion of the matter, Rhodes needs to give Stephen and another lich the starting point of their operations in Wenning, an important town connected to Erathia, that is, Harmondale and the surrounding areas, in exchange for Control over all of Vilning.
After achieving this point, Stephen and the other lich will not interfere in any matters in Vilning and allow Rhodes to rule this area. However, how long the rule can last depends on the progress of this battle. The situation, before this, no one can say for sure.
After occupying this area, Rhodes can also fulfill his previous promise to the lichs. With the help of geographical advantages, he can directly launch an attack on the territory of Eri. Cooperating with the offensive in Diya, he can extend the front line and contain Eri. There are many creatures in the territory.
Although he understood that it was not too late, Rhodes did not rush to lead his undead creatures to attack directly. Instead, he took out a magic book from the space ring.
The city of Saou, which is being rebuilt, is surrounded by noisy sounds. This is a scene that is rarely seen in ordinary cities of the undead. The ghost dragon rising into the sky does not panic the surrounding creatures, but makes them feel at ease. They knew that this was a sign of the Lord's arrival.
After the previous battle, Rhode's deeds had already spread. Even the necromancers who came to the city later had heard about the battle. The true identity of the lord here was gradually known to the other necromancers.
Rhodes was not affected by these things at all and began to flip through the magic book in his hand.
The former owner of this magic book was the lich Nagus. After it was transformed by Rhodes with the power of the artifact, Nagus could only donate it under Rhodes' order.
The most precious spell recorded in the magic book is naturally the fifth-level thunder bomb. The important reason why Rhodes asked for the magic book was because of the existence of this spell.
Under the influence of the master-level wisdom spell, Rhodes does not need to carefully study all the information about this spell like other mages, and only through repeated attempts on his own can he master it. Rhodes just read the magic book once. All the contents related to this spell recorded in it can be mastered instantly.
The second half of the magic book was all about thunder bombs, and Nagus's own understanding, messy handwriting, and the conflicting parts of the previous and subsequent records were added to Luo's mind. It was extremely difficult for De to watch.
The content recorded in the magic book fully discusses the anomalies in the lich's regular spells. Nagus himself also understands that the lich's spellcasting ability can never be compared with the orthodox legendary mage. This is the ritual of the endless night. bring negative effects.
Any spell cast by the lich will be corroded by its own death energy. This resulted in a decrease in power. However, Nagus was not satisfied with this and tried to use death energy to change the nature of the spell.
Among the earth magic that is closest to death energy, Nagus has found a way to change it. The thunderous bombs he releases are purely composed of death energy and no longer involve any earth magic elements.
This is also the reason why Rhodes felt that the thunderous bombs used by Nagus in the previous battle were powerful, almost as powerful as the legendary mage's use of this spell.
It is a pity that the master-level wisdom technique can only allow Rhodes to master the basic thunder bombs. As for the thunder bombs that have been improved by the Lich advancement, although Rhodes knows the reason for its formation, he cannot control it at all. Cast, this special magical knowledge cannot be mastered through Nagus's handwriting.
In addition to the extremely special spell of thunder bomb, the magic book also records some spells that Rhodes has not mastered, such as all-or-nothing, rejoicing, etc., which are extremely practical, but spells that Rhodes has not had the opportunity to learn before. Rhodes mastered it all.
While Rhodes was flipping through the magic book, bursts of warmth began to spread through his sense of blood connection. At the same time, a feeling of being watched arose in Rhodes' heart.
Rhodes looked up and saw Rowling's figure appearing not far away.
The unusual movements brought about by the gate of time and space, especially the violent fluctuations of space magic, naturally could not be concealed by Luo Lin, who had a keen sense. Coupled with the information coming from the blood connection sense, Luo Lin found Rhodes immediately.
Rhodes noticed that there seemed to be a woman following Rowling. It seemed that it was Leah who was beside him when he used the Gate of Time and Space to take North to the Death Tomb.
At this time, Leah followed Rowling here. She looked at Rhodes with a little doubt in her eyes, and at the same time looked around, as if she was looking for something.
Ignoring Leah, who had no rank, Rhodes turned his attention to Rowling.
After arriving at Rhodes' side, Rowling looked over with a hint of surprise and asked, "Is everything going well? Is it resolved so quickly? I thought it would take a long time for you to come back."
During the conversation with the lich, especially during the battle, Rhodes did not dare to relax for a moment. Even after getting the magic book, he could not read it immediately. He had to wait until he returned to the territory before he had the chance. Check.
Perhaps for Rowling, this was just a peaceful day in the reconstruction process of Saou City, but for Rhodes, what he experienced was much more than that.
"It's not over yet. This is a magic book belonging to the lich, and it contains many special spells."
With that said, Rhodes handed over the magic book he had been reading and handed it into Rowling's hands.
Rowling didn't take a second look at the magic book that Rhodes handed over. Her eyes were always looking at Rhodes, with an inexplicable meaning in her eyes.
Noticing the change in Rowling's expression, Rhodes added:
"All preparations are in place. I will eliminate the other forces in Vilning, leaving only the Necromancer. In this process, I may need your help."
Rhodes' words did not satisfy Rowling.
"Just maybe?"
Rowling's soft inquiry came to his ears, and Rhodes pondered: "No, I definitely need your help, because the Titan Corpse Witch King is still in your hands."
Noticing Rowling's glare at him, Rhodes coughed dryly and said, "Okay, let's stop chatting. You pack up and get ready to go to the first target of this trip, Harmondale."
