Looking casually in the direction of the sound, Rhodes didn't care what was happening behind him. He just said lightly to Death Knight Vera:
"Wait for me here. There's something unusual down here..."
After saying that, Rhodes jumped out of the cliff, relying on the effect of the treasure to slow down the falling speed, and successfully reached the cave.
Vera, who stayed on the cliff, couldn't help but feel relieved when she saw Rhodes leaving like this. However, looking at the female mage sitting on the ground, she felt embarrassed for a moment.
Although her life was saved by Vera, Vera was not sure what to do next.
Arriving at the cave, Rhodes walked a few steps inside, and the space opened up. There were burning torches on the surrounding walls, illuminating the scene inside, allowing Rhodes to see everything inside clearly.
What appeared in Rhode's sight was a group of mages who had been prepared for a long time. These mages had heavy faces and strong mana fluctuations exuding from their bodies. Their existence also represented the last remaining power on the island.
According to Rhodes' perception of death energy, there are still many auras of the living in the deepest part of the cave. Among them, Rhodes also sensed an aura that has the same origin as his own, which is exactly the same as the death energy in Rhodes. This breath The master of the aura is none other than the Death Knight Kane that Rhodes is looking for.
After discovering Kane's existence, Rhodes knew that he had not found the wrong location. His own death knight was being imprisoned here by these mages.
Feeling the arrival of Rhodes, the faces of the mages inside the cave were extremely solemn. Strong waves of water magic were generated from their bodies. The blessing of plane rules greatly improved their spellcasting abilities.
Aware of the state of these mages, especially their intention to counterattack, Rhodes did not take them to heart at all, but showed a contemptuous look. In Rhodes' view, they were just struggling to death.
Even if these mages gather together, the momentum they generate cannot be compared to the former water element lord, or even to the legendary mage on the island. They cannot bring any threat to Rhodes, and they cannot make Rhodes Feel any pressure.
Looking at these mages in front of him, Rhodes still didn't intend to give them any chance. Rhodes raised his hand, and dark clouds emerged from around him and penetrated into the cave.
Facing the incoming black cloud, these mages reacted quickly and tried to raise a huge ice wall to separate the inside and outside of the cave and block the enemy at the outermost periphery.
As the ice wall rose, the temperature in the entire cave instantly dropped. In order to make the ice wall hard enough to eventually reach the level of solid ice, the water mage behind used various magic elements to further lower the temperature. .
In this case, some lower-ranked water mages cannot bear this level of cold, and their faces turn livid from the cold. They must actively use water-bending magic on themselves to make themselves feel better.
At this moment, blazing lightning continuously struck the surface of the rising ice wall from outside the cave, instantly causing a large number of cracks on the rising ice wall.
Outside the cave, Rhodes was not affected by the temperature at all and was constantly waving the sword blade in his hand. The lightning leaping out of the sword blade could break through all obstacles in front of him.
Due to coming here from the ocean and the previous battle with the legendary mage, Rhodes's robes were stained with a lot of water droplets.
Now, as the temperature inside the cave dropped rapidly, the water droplets on Rhodes' robes condensed into icicles, which were hanging on Rhodes' body.
As the mage cast spells to resist, the temperature on the outermost side of the cave had already reached a point where ordinary creatures could not bear it. If the body was exposed to such coldness, it would probably lose consciousness immediately and suffer severe frostbite.
For regular creatures, fighting in this environment is not a good choice. They can easily fall into a state that is unfavorable to themselves. On the contrary, a water mage who is familiar with this state will not suffer much with the blessing of spells. Influence.
It is a pity that the change in temperature cannot have any impact on Rhodes. The lich-like body brings great convenience to Rhodes.
Lightning struck the ice wall one after another, and the high damage caused by fifth-level magic completely exploded. The ice wall did not last for a while, and a big hole was broken in the middle, and the cloud of death followed the center of the ice wall. The holes poured in, drowning the mage behind.
Under the erosion of the cloud of death, the mage behind the ice wall could not even utter a cry. He instantly lost all consciousness, and even the flesh and blood on his body was lost. Instead, he was replaced by the corpse wizard king who was reborn under the transformation.
At the same time, Rhodes put away the sword in his hand, his expression unchanged, as if he had just done an insignificant thing.
Arriving in front of the ice wall with a hole in the middle, just as Rhodes was about to crawl through the ice wall, a sense of crisis suddenly arose in Rhodes' heart.
Without any hesitation, Rhodes immediately used teleportation, and his figure immediately disappeared. At the position where Rhodes was originally standing, the half-broken ice wall suddenly burst from the inside. Several nearby Corpse Witch Kings who were close to the ice wall, the entire The body was blown to pieces.
If Rhodes had not noticed this in time and was affected by the bursting ice wall, his current fate would be no different from those of the Corpse Witch King.
Following the airflow caused by the explosion of the ice wall, Rhodes noticed that in the depths of the cave, many mages who had used teleportation to distance themselves were staring at him as the ice wall exploded. , it was from the hands of those mages.
Even though the strength of these enemies in the cave is far less powerful than Rhodes' former opponents, Rhodes still cannot be careless. Any creature that underestimates the enemy in battle will pay the price.
After realizing this, Rhodes' face darkened. The resistance of these enemies was more tenacious than Rhodes thought. Fortunately, the transformation of the Corpse Witch King has spread among the mages in the cave. Rhodes is not in a hurry. , it won't be long before these mages will fall into deep chaos and eventually be transformed by Rhodes.
Suddenly, a wave of space mana came from behind Rhodes. Through his familiarity with space spells, Rhodes immediately judged that the spell that caused this kind of space mana fluctuation was teleportation.
With the blessing of the water elemental plane, not only Rhodes' ability to perform teleportation has been improved, but the same is true for the mages here, and the improvement is even greater than that of Rhodes.
