By the time Rhodes passed through the Two-Way Monument and returned to Saou City, the day had already passed.
As soon as he returned to the main plane, Rhodes received a reminder from the spiritual mark in his mind.
The message from the Centaur leader clearly told Rhodes that the Necromancer's attack on the Quiet City ultimately ended in failure.
Without Rhodes' leadership, the Necromancer encountered the most difficult battle in the face of the Eri creatures who were full of anger after the Holy Land was attacked.
The skeletons of corpse witches were scattered all over the forest, and many necromancers were demoralized. The necromancers who were about to flee died first at the hands of their own people. The powerful Lich fought until the last moment, but still could not turn the tide of the battle. Even the huge Titan Corpse Witch King finally fell over and shattered into pieces.
Originally, according to Rhodes' plan, after the battle with Yuk was over, he would immediately return to the battlefield of Quiet City and use the death of the wise Yuk to destroy the morale of those Eli creatures and further expand the battle situation. Instead of Let those Eli creatures, through the death of Youk, draw strength from their grief, and even awaken to become heroes.
Unfortunately, Rhodes' plan was completely disrupted by that angel.
From the wisdom released by Yuk, Rhodes gained powerful power, but he lost another important thing, which was Rowling's soul.
As Rowling fell into a coma, Rhodes' attention no longer focused on Eli. Rather than conquering Eli, how to save Rowling's soul from the angels was what Rhodes needed to consider most.
If something goes wrong with Rowling's soul, even if she is reincarnated, she cannot be resurrected.
Relying on his own strength alone, Rhodes was not sure that he could take Rowling's soul and escape from the hands of those angels. For this, Rhodes needed more powerful power to help him.
With no time to pay attention to the troubled necromancers in Eli, Rhodes passed through the dark green portal and once again stepped into the land of Diya.
Pure death energy is hidden under this land, which belongs to the Lich's heritage. Pale broken bones can be seen everywhere. As soon as Rhodes arrived, it caused a wave of death energy in the surroundings.
Soon, a figure wearing an elegant black dress emerged from the black mist in the distance and slowly came to Rhodes.
"We meet again, the holder of the artifact. I heard that your progress in Eri is not going well."
The person who appeared in front of Rhodes was none other than Lich Stephen, who had taught him the "Secret Technique of Energy Capture". Her appearance did not seem to have changed at all. She wore a spider-shaped crown on her head, and the hem of her long skirt dotted with satin was pulled up. Holding herself up high, time seemed to have stopped on her body.
Although Rhodes wore a skull mask, the death energy on his body could not be concealed. The extremely sensitive Lich recognized his identity at a glance.
"It seems that you have completely given up fighting in Erathia. Are the other lichs the same?" Rhodes asked in a deep voice.
Stephen shook his head: "We have all gained enough. It takes hundreds of years to accumulate corpse witches. There is no need to continue fighting with the Erathians."
As he spoke, Stephen stepped forward slowly: "After spending a long time, all lichs understand one truth, that is, they should give up when they are good. The other lichs are very satisfied with the results of this battle. You should too Stop it, Rod."
"No." Rhodes said in a deep voice, "It's far from time to stop. The battle is not over yet. Gather all the lichs in Diya for me. I have something to say to them."
"If you ask like this, okay, I will summon them for you. But don't blame me for not warning you. Those lichs have already acquired enough corpse witches. Now they will no longer obey your command, nor do they need to The so-called artifact holder.”
After saying that, Stephen quickly took out a dark green gem from the space ring. As if he was worried that Rhodes would change his mind, the gem immediately rose into the sky. At the same time, a dark green ripple spread rapidly into the distance.
All of a sudden, all the lichs in Diya received this special news. The holder of the artifact returned to Diya and was gathering them in the Death Tomb.
Soon, dark green portals opened one after another around the dark green gems in the air, and figures that frightened the whole of Dia appeared in front of Rhodes.
Among them, Asri and Aisha, who had just left Saou City not long ago, appeared in front of Rhodes.
What surprised Rhodes was that none of the lichs who came to the scene were followed by a corpse witch, and there were not even any other undead creatures.
In addition, Rhodes felt a familiar aura from most of the lichs, a sharp hostility like a gleam on his back, released from them, and there were more than just a few of them.
Rhodes' expression gradually darkened. It would be okay if only one or two lichs had such hostility, but now, almost all lichs have strong hostility. Rhodes understood that they must know something. .
"Owner of the artifact, according to your request, I have summoned those lichs. Now, please answer my question, or our common question." Beside Rhodes, Stephen said slowly.
"What do you want to ask?" Rhodes asked coldly, the eyeballs on the far-sighted pendant kept turning, taking in everything around him.
"Not long ago, a rumor spread among Diya. It is said that you can use the artifact to control all undead creatures that are born with the power of the artifact. Is this true?" Stephen asked in a deep voice.
All the lichs looked at Rhodes at this time, hoping to get an answer from him.
The powerful coercion emitted by the Lich shrouded Rhodes all over. If it were another necromancer, he might not be able to stand firmly under this coercion. However, Rhodes looked calm and was not affected by the momentum at all. Influence.
"I never said that." Rhodes shook his head, and the eyeballs on the far-sighted pendant scanned the faces of the surrounding lich one by one. "You also said it, who told you this? This is just a rumor."
"This is not an ordinary rumor, Rhodes." At this moment, a familiar voice reached Rhodes' ears.
Looking around, I saw a special figure slowly walking out of the darkness.
Golden light illuminated the entire field as he moved forward, and Rhodes keenly felt that his body was different.
Taking off the skull mask on his face, Rhodes no longer needed this mask and he regained his vision.
The flesh and blood subsided from Rhodes' body, and the green flames flickered in his eyes again. Looking at the golden figure in the distance, Rhodes already knew his identity.
