In the Emerald City, Rhodes, who was meditating in a quiet room, suddenly noticed a change in his body.
This feeling is like a blocked nose in typhoid fever, which suddenly becomes clear and allows you to smell various smells. It is also like a body that has always been wearing a heavy coat and is suddenly exposed to the air.
The strange feeling forced Rhodes to interrupt his ongoing meditation and look at his body.
Rhodes noticed that at some point, his body returned to human form and was no longer a skeleton after undergoing the ritual. The original bones were covered with flesh and blood, and he looked no different from his former self.
In addition, Rhode's senses have also been restored, and they are even sharper than before, and he can feel all abnormalities around him.
Rhodes recalled that this special state of his body only appeared in one situation, and that was when he was next to North.
North, who replaced the lich arm, gained this unique ability. As long as he is around him, all undead creatures will return to their original forms, while normal creatures will look like undead creatures.
Rhodes was extremely impressed by such an ability. When Rhodes took Leah to find him, he had experienced this from him before. Because of this unique ability, North could not even see Leah. appearance.
At this time, Rhodes, who was meditating, returned to his original state inexplicably. Rhodes knew that this must be related to North. Obviously, during the period of his meditation, the centaur leader had already sent Dia The royal family was brought to the Emerald City.
What makes Rhodes concerned is that the ability possessed by North seems to be effective for a long time once triggered. As long as you are within a certain range around him, you can enjoy the effect of this ability. I think it will bring some desire. The lich who has regained his senses will definitely rely on this ability.
Without any intention of going to greet them, Rhodes stood up, tidied up, and then waited for the arrival of North and his party.
Soon, the door of the quiet room slowly opened, and a figure came into the quiet room.
"Is it you?" Rhodes was a little confused.
"Are you surprised to see me?" the visitor asked.
When he came to the quiet room, he closed the door of the quiet room. Soon, there was only a little firelight in the small quiet room.
"You should stay in Diya and be your king of Diya, and send out your men when needed, instead of coming to the battlefield here in person to participate in the battle that belongs to the lich." Rhodes said in a deep voice, for the person in front of him , he felt dissatisfied.
The person who appeared in front of Rhodes was Katherine in Diya. In terms of status, he was the king of the entire Diya, and his status was only lower than that of the lich. Rhodes didn't know why he wanted to do this at this time. Coming here was somewhat beyond Rhode's expectations.
For ordinary necromancers, Kesri has a more symbolic meaning. The existence of lich is undoubtedly too far away. A necromancer without strength is not qualified to hear the name of lich. On the contrary, Kesri has a special interest in Di Ya's rule is more familiar to ordinary necromancers.
Because of this, according to Rhodes' original prediction, Kesery should have stayed in Dia, giving orders to ordinary necromancers, and at most sending some undead creatures to other areas, instead of coming to the battlefield in person like now If anything happens to Eli, the entire war situation will be affected.
"I won't stay in Eli for too long and will leave soon. I just have some words that I must have a chat with you." Kesery in human form said slowly.
Under the influence of North's unique ability, Katherine who appeared in Rhode's eyes was also in human form. Compared with the form of undead creatures, he now has a special aura, which is majestic that undead creatures never have.
"What do you want to say? Don't say that there are not enough corpse wizard kings. You should have enough undead creatures." Rhodes said helplessly.
"It's not these." Kesri shook his head: "I want to discuss with you the issue of balance."
"Balance?" Kasery's words once again made Rhodes confused. Does balance refer to a matter of strength? Rhodes didn't understand that he hadn't heard such a special word from other creatures for a long time.
"Yes, balance, the balance between life and death." Kesery looked at Rhodes, "I believe you have seen those lichs. When their strength is fully displayed, it is enough to shock all the forces."
Rhodes nodded. Of course, Rhodes would not deny this, but he heard Katherine continue: "Any legendary creature with some knowledge knows that the lich is accumulating power in Diya. Do you think they are... Before that, why not unite and deal with the lich in advance, instead of letting the lich accumulate power and threaten the entire continent?"
Rhodes replied disdainfully: "Because they are afraid of paying the price, the Lich is not easy to solve. What's more, there are constant frictions within the same force, and it is impossible for other forces to truly unite. This is what you want Is that balanced?"
Katherine shook his head: "In a sense, your answer makes sense. But the real reason is that the accumulation of lich has not affected the balance between life and death."
Kesri raised his hand, and death energy condensed around him:
"Death is an inevitable part. Ordinary creatures cannot resist their own death. Even vampires can only rely on their own constitution and long-term dormancy to delay the onset of decay. When the moment of death truly arrives, the soul gradually dissipates. The body left behind, as proof of death, will belong to the Lich."
"In the long-term accumulation, lich will not actively destroy the balance between life and death, but will accept the bodies of dead creatures. Sometimes, they will also come forward to maintain order in Diya and eliminate some necromancers who have gone crazy in pursuit of power. . For them, this is also a move they have to make in order to maintain Diya’s existence.”
"But now, your actions have seriously damaged this balance. Death has begun to become a mainstream, spreading across the entire continent. The Lich does not want to see this happen."
Hearing the special meaning in Kesery's words, Rhodes said in a deep voice: "It seems that you don't understand that all the lichs who joined this battle made their own choices. I did not force them to join. Unless they choose to be my enemy."
As he said that, Rhodes' gaze turned cold towards Katherine, and the atmosphere in the venue gradually became solemn.
