Sitting on the body of the Whale Corpse Witch King, Rhodes looked gloomy as he stared at the scene in front of him.
Under his body, there was a huge disk, which was the Flowing Water Altar that sank into the sea during the previous battle with the sea monster. After the battle, Rhodes recovered it.
The Flowing Water Altar did not sink directly to the bottom of the sea like the sea monster's corpse, but stayed at a certain height and stopped sinking, which was consistent with the state in which Rhodes first found it.
On the disk, the cracks that were originally caused by the sea monster's attack have been completely restored. Rhodes did not see what the principle of the disk's independent recovery was based on. It seemed that the infiltration of sea water could make the disk The disk undergoes strange changes.
Since the lines carved on the Flowing Water Altar are related to a powerful fifth-level magic, Rhodes brought it with him specially. Fortunately, with the size of the Whale Corpse Witch King, the Flowing Water Altar can be completely placed on it. Doesn't affect anything.
After the battle with the sea monster was over, Rhodes immediately ordered most of his skeleton fish kings, as well as the resentful flying fish, to focus on the area where the sea monster was found because of the discovery of the shipwreck. , however the result did not satisfy Rhodes.
One day passed, and the undead creatures under his command did not find any traces related to land. All that existed was the boundless ocean.
Just when Rhodes was about to give up, he inspected the resentful flying fish on the sea surface from the air and discovered some abnormalities, which attracted Rhodes' attention.
Under the guidance of the Wraith Flying Fish, the Whale Corpse Witch King quickly rushed to the scene with Rhodes, and Rhodes saw the special scene in front of him.
What appeared in front of Rhodes was an extremely huge whirlpool. A huge pulling force came from the center, rolling up a torrent on the surrounding sea. The center of the whirlpool sank deeply into the ocean, swallowing up everything caught in it. Things, I don’t know where they will end up.
The overall size of the vortex far exceeded the Whale Corpse Witch King controlled by Rhodes, but it was not as big as the sea monster. In the end, this strange scene formed in front of Rhodes.
If it was just an ordinary vortex, Rhodes would not care so much. What really made Rhodes feel abnormal was that he could sense the strong residual mana fluctuations in space from the center of the vortex.
In the center of the whirlpool, where all the torrents meet, there are space mana fluctuations that far exceed Rhodes' imagination. According to Rhodes' judgment, this is no longer the effect that the gate of time and space can have. Only the true interdimensional Only the gate has such mana fluctuations.
Different from the door of another dimension used by the mage, which can allow everything to pass through safely, at the center of the vortex, there is extremely chaotic space turbulence, which can separate everything involved in it. If you enter it rashly, you will only die. One piece.
Looking at the huge whirlpool that appeared on the sea in front of him, Rhodes undoubtedly realized something. All the abnormalities around him gave Rhodes a sense of familiarity, especially in the center of the whirlpool. Rhodes realized that there was undoubtedly something there. naturally formed space gaps.
The existence of the space gap connects a completely unknown different space. Just enter it and you can cross the spatial distance and appear in another location. It is considered a stable space passage. Compared with the mage's space spell, passing through the space gap requires taking great risks, and it can easily be torn apart by the turbulent flow of space.
In Rhode's view, the wreckage of the ship that appeared in the sea monster's belly was very likely to be a creature that accidentally passed through the space gap and appeared on the water elemental plane. However, what was waiting for them was not an unknown world. exploration, but was swallowed by a sea monster.
The appearance of the ship also made it clear to Rhodes that the place the whirlpool leads to should be located in a sea area, not a flat land, so that the entire ship can be pulled into the water elemental plane.
After realizing that the shipwreck in the belly of the sea monster did not originate from the land in the water elemental plane, but came here through the space gap, Rhodes also had another idea in his mind.
Relying on the existence of the Ghost King's cloak, Rhodes has already experienced it once, so he has a certain amount of experience in forcibly resisting the cutting of space turbulence. Space turbulence is fatal in the eyes of conventional creatures, but Rhodes has a way to deal with it.
Because of this, looking at the huge whirlpool in front of him, Rhodes couldn't help but have an idea in his mind, that is, to directly pass through the space gap in front of him and try to return to the main plane.
The emergence of this idea immediately shocked Rhodes, and he began to think about the feasibility of crossing the vortex.
In Rhode's view, the biggest problem he faced was the inability to determine where the space gap in the vortex led.
The completely unknown space gap may lead to the main plane or the sea areas of other planes. Rhodes has no way to confirm all of this at this time.
What's more, even with the protection of the Ghost King's cloak, there is still the possibility of accidents when passing through the space gap. Without the blessing of space magic, when passing through this naturally formed space gap, if you are not careful, you will get lost. in space.
Similar to the space that Rhodes entered here from the gate of another dimension, if Rhodes hadn't happened to pass through an unknown space crack and come to the water elemental plane, when his mana was exhausted, the only thing waiting for him would be death.
Because of this, in Rhode's opinion, passing directly through the space gap in front of him does not seem to be a good choice. If there is a better way to return to the main plane, Rhodes will definitely not choose the whirlpool in front of him.
However, the information from the undead creatures under his command made Rhodes agitated. The world of the water elemental plane is far less small than Rhodes imagined. Even though the entire world is wrapped by the ocean, its vastness is not weaker than In the main plane, during this period of time, the undead creatures under his command only explored a corner of the plane.
Even if he finds the land established by Master Brakada, how to borrow their teleportation monument to return to the main plane is still a problem for Rhodes.
According to the information that Rhodes knows, there must be legendary mages stationed in the water elemental plane, and it is very likely that there will be more than one.
Naturally, the teleportation monument built by Master Brakada cannot be used by unknown persons, let alone the exiled creatures. Even if Rhodes successfully finds land, he will most likely face a fierce battle.
With the power of the Skeleton Fish King in the ocean, even if the legendary mages join forces, they may not be able to do anything to Rhodes, but Rhodes also needs to worry about the situation where the legendary mages take the initiative to close the teleportation monument after discovering an abnormality.
Rather than continuing to look for the land where the legendary mage rose, the whirlpool in front of him seemed to be more acceptable. More importantly, Rhodes can now try to enter the vortex instead of relying solely on luck and waiting for undead creatures to accidentally discover the existence of land.
After thinking for a while, looking at the whirlpool in front of him, Rhodes also made a decision in his heart.
