Chapter 68

At this time, Rhodes was still observing secretly because he had not yet confirmed the location of the necromancer.

Until now, the necromancer has only used Fire Wall and Fire thaumaturgy. Both spells can be cast directly on the target.

Since there is no exact trajectory, Rhodes cannot rely on the fluctuation of magic alone to find out the hidden location of the necromancer. Therefore, Rhodes is still observing the situation on the battlefield.

As the battle progressed, the battlefield fell into a stalemate for a while. Whenever the fire wall dissipated, the two would make up the fire wall in its original position, and there was no other action.

In addition to using the slow Dafa on the ghost, the mayor did not do any more, just relying on the skeleton warrior to resist the ghost in front. And the necromancer wanted to rely on the four ghosts in front to break through the deadlocked battle.

At this time, the advantages of the mayor's combat experience are reflected. At this moment of stalemate, the mayor's skeleton warrior supported the shield and pressed forward, pushing the ghost back toward the rear.

Facing the impact of the iron shield, because the speed of the ghosts was slowed down, the cooperation between them became poor, and they could only be pressed and retreated at this time. And the rear of the ghost is exactly where the fire wall is.

The skeleton warriors gathered in front of the ghost, trying to force the ghost into the wall of fire.

Just when the ghost was not far from the fire wall, a burning fireball flew towards the skeleton warrior from behind all the undead creatures.

The fireball passed directly through the fire wall and flew towards the back of the fire wall, and the ghosts on the side received orders from the necromancer and accurately avoided the fireball's trajectory.

The fireball passed by these ghosts and directly hit the shield held by a skeleton warrior in front.

Only a sound of explosion was heard, and the shield in the hands of the skeleton warrior shattered directly, and the skeleton warrior who was directly hit by the fireball was blasted away by the fireball, and fell to the ground together with the skeleton warrior behind it.

Within the range of the fireball explosion, even with a shield as a resistance, the skeleton warriors also suffered a lot of damage. The impact of the fireball explosion caused the original tight formation of the Skeleton Warriors to be directly washed away.

Almost all of the skeleton warriors came to the front of the wall of fire due to the suppression of the ghosts. If it wasn't to go forward to suppress the ghost, even if the necromancer behind him shot a fireball, it would not be able to achieve such a good effect.

After the fireball hit, the ghost charged directly towards the fallen skeleton warrior, instantly killing the skeleton warrior who lost the protection of the shield.

The fireball sent by the necromancer has achieved a lot of results. Combined with the offensive of these ghosts, the skeleton warriors of the mayor suffered a lot.

However, this fireball also exposed the location of the Necromancer. Following the trajectory of the fireball, Rhodes found the possible location of the Necromancer.

For Rhodes, the best thing to do at this time is to continue to wait. Whether it is the mayor or the necromancer, since he has already started to cast damage-type spells, in this case, the mana will be consumed quickly.

Once their mana is exhausted, they can only rely on their undead creatures to fight, and in this way, their strength can be lost.

However, Rhodes acted as soon as he saw the fireball shot, lurking himself in the darkness, and began to move towards the position of the necromancer.

Rhode knew that if he continued to wait, after the skeleton warriors in front of the mansion were cleaned up, the mayor would retreat directly into the interior of the mansion. Although there was a wall of fire, the mayor should also have mastered the thaumaturgic technique to forcibly pass through the wall of fire. Returning to the mansion will at most only cause serious injuries.

If Rhodes did not notice the abnormality from the inside of the mansion, he would definitely let the mayor retreat into it, but according to Rhodes' perception, it is best to leave the mayor outside the mansion. Therefore, Rhodes must take action.

Rhodes stepped forward for a while in the direction of the Necromancer. Suddenly, the vampire rushed out directly from Rhodes,

Facing the ghost lurking in the darkness, preparing to launch a sneak attack on Rhodes.

The ghost was also not affected by the darkness. After sensing the lurking Rhodes, he first conveyed a message to the Necromancer, and then followed the order of the Necromancer and prepared to take advantage of this opportunity to sneak attack.

Due to the darkness all around, although it provided Rhodes with the convenience of lurking, it also made it impossible for Rhodes to see the surrounding situation. The previous battlefield was due to the fire generated by the fire wall, so he could see clearly.

If it wasn't for the vampire who first noticed the sneak attack of the ghost, and stepped forward to attack the ghost, maybe Rhodes would not be able to detect the abnormality until he walked to the ghost.

Seeing that the vampire was fighting with the ghost, Rhode was not surprised. Rhodes predicted in advance that the necromancer would definitely be protected by undead creatures around him. It just surprised Rhodes that the Necromancer controls so many ghosts.

Counting the one he killed himself, and the ghosts who were fighting the skeleton warrior at this time, the necromancer controlled a total of six ghosts.

However, except for the ghosts, in this attack, the number of ghosts and walking corpses was not more than the last time, but the number was similar to the last time.

Rhodes realized that the six ghosts, plus this large group of undead creatures, was the capital for the necromancer to dare to take on the task of destroying the town.

If it wasn't because of Rhode's raid last time, one of the ghosts died, and the ghosts had to be left for protection, even with the use of magic, the mayor's skeleton warriors would not be able to resist for long.

Even so, this necromancer is only at the apprentice level and has not yet reached the level of a full-fledged mage. Once he reaches the level of a full-fledged mage, even if he controls a lot of undead creatures, the spells he casts will undergo a qualitative change, not like it is now.

Rhodes knew that before reaching the fourth level, the mages would not master many self-protection spells. Among the low-level spells that could protect themselves, there were only a few such as ice rings.

Mage's powerful life-saving spells, such as teleportation, are not low-level, and if you want to learn from the magic guild, you need to pay a certain price. Not just gold coins, but many other things.

At this time, the vampires are at war with the ghosts.

In the face of the vampire's attack, the ghost did not have much resistance, but directly exchanged wounds with the vampire one by one.

Due to the dim light, Rhodes could not see the situation in the field clearly, but he could vaguely see the dim light flashing on the ghost's body. When fighting a vampire, the ghost uses its own power to restrain the vampire.

The ghost in front of him is obviously stronger than the ghost that Rhode saw at first, but neither the vampire nor the ghost can kill each other in a short time. Even in the case of all-out shots, since the battle experience is not bad, it is still impossible to distinguish the winner in a short time.

At this time, according to the instructions in Rhodes' spiritual imprint, the vampires in the battle were directly transformed into bats.

The bat flew out from the ghost, but didn't pay any attention to the ghost in front of it, and quickly flew in the direction where the fireball was originally shot.

At this time, the necromancer hidden in the dark also realized that the bat wanted to attack himself.

The ghost stopped in place and tried to attack the bats that were scattered around, but at most one or two bats were killed, and the rest of the bats had already flown away.

The bat flew in one direction, and the darkness had no effect on the bat. It didn't fly far, and under the rapid flight, a bat found the location of the necromancer.

In an instant, the bats seemed to have received some instructions, and all gathered towards the location of the Necromancer, ready to attack him.

The ghost wanted to return to the Necromancer to help him deal with the bat in the sky, but was blocked by a blade.

When the vampire found the location of the necromancer, Rhodes originally wanted to go up to help, but finally decided to stay here, deal with the ghost in front of him, and let the vampire face the necromancer alone.

Rhode remembered that this necromancer had used fire spells many times. If nothing else, he should be a necromancer who specialized in fire magic.

In the low-level fire magic, there is a lack of range skills such as the ice magic ring, and the only thing that can be counted as range skills is the wall of fire.

As a high-level mage in his previous life, Rhode obviously knew the basic spells of various schools.

Therefore, after judging that the necromancer majored in fire magic, Rhodes directly asked the vampires to deal with him. Necromancers have difficulty dealing with these bats due to a lack of means to deal with them.

And just as the bats came to the Necromancer, many ghosts rushed over and blocked the bats.

Previously, the Necromancer received the information from the ghost, and after finding another enemy, he transferred a lot of ghosts back to him. Anyway, the way to attack in the field was blocked by the fire wall, and these ghosts could not cross the fire wall to attack for a while. Skeleton Warriors, it won't affect anything.

In the center of the battlefield, in addition to a large number of walking corpses, there are still some ghosts, ready to wait for the wall of fire to disappear, and immediately launch an attack on the skeleton warriors.

Although the Necromancer made many ghosts retreat, he did not withdraw all the ghosts on the battlefield.

For a time, many ghosts came to the front of the necromancer and blocked these bats with their bodies.

Since the ghosts have no flesh and blood, facing these ghosts, the bat cannot achieve much effect, but is quickly killed by these ghosts.

The bat flew into the air and wanted to cross the ghost to attack the Necromancer behind, but in order to avoid the bat in the sky, the Necromancer let the ghost surround him and kept changing positions.

For a time, bats could only be blocked by these ghosts.

On the side, Rhodes also began to fight with the ghost.

As early as when the vampires began to bat, Rhodes didn't care about revealing the position, and in order to see the surrounding situation, he lit the torch in his hand.

At this time, the torch was thrown aside by Rhodes. Although it could not illuminate all the surrounding situations, it also provided Rhodes with vision to deal with the enemy.

When fighting the ghost, Rhode felt the power of the ghost in front of him.

Although they are all ghosts, there is also a difference in strength between ghosts. Some ghosts have just been upgraded from ghosts, but they have just entered the third level, while some ghosts are not far from the fourth level. And the ghost that Rhode is facing is the latter.

Rhodes realized that the necromancer chose to keep the most powerful ghosts by his side for escort in order to deal with the enemy's surprise attack.

No matter how Rhode swung his sword, he was blocked by the ghosts one by one. Although Rhodes could dodge the attack of the ghosts, he could not gain any advantage for a while.

Rhode knew that this was not a difference in moves, but a difference in basic attributes. Because Rhodes put a lot of attribute points into knowledge, facing the ghost at this time, the melee attack seems a little weak.

The ghost once again repelled Rhode's attack. Just when the ghost was about to take advantage of the situation to attack Rhodes, Rhodes raised his hand, and a spell was condensed in Rhodes' hands.

There is only one creature around, the ghost, and Rhodes chooses the ice arrow that can deal the most damage.

The Frostbolt was shot rapidly at the ghost. Because the distance was too close, the ghost couldn't dodge, and only had time to block the hand bone in front of the Frostbolt.

The ice arrow hit the hand bone of the ghost, and then it exploded, and the hand bone of the ghost broke instantly. At the same time, the entire body of the ghost was covered with a layer of frost.

The ghost trembled backwards, and Rhode stepped forward instantly and slashed down with a sword, but was blocked by the other hand of the ghost.

At this time, due to the loss of an arm, in the face of Rhode's attack, the ghost did not choose to continue to attack, but concentrated on defense, the purpose was to hold Rhodes and prevent Rhodes from approaching the undead mages behind.

During the battle with the ghost, Rhode could see that the ghost's body was flashing blue light all the time by the firelight from the side. Rhodes knew that procrastinating for a long time would only be detrimental to himself.

Rhodes found the right time, and took advantage of the opportunity of the ghost to resist his attack, and released an ice arrow again.

The Frostbolt hit the ghost's body directly. Taking advantage of the moment when the ghost lost its defenses, Rhode quickly stepped forward and made a heavy slash. With the impact of the spell, he directly decapitated the ghost.

Perhaps it is difficult for Rhodes to kill the ghosts by means of close combat, but under the influence of spells, the ghosts are not Rhodes' opponents at all.

After killing the ghost, Rhode looked in the direction of the vampire.

Under the attack of the surrounding ghosts, the bats were greatly reduced. In contrast, the ghosts did not lose a few.

After the loss of bats reaches a certain number, the bats quickly leave these ghosts and gather at a nearby location.

The Necromancer also discovered this, raised his hand, and prepared to cast a spell.

Under the attack of the bat, the necromancer at this time also suffered a little injury, but the injury was not serious. The bat just came to his side and was immediately killed by the ghost.

As soon as the vampire's figure appeared, he saw a fireball flying. The vampire had to bat again.

With the emergence of a black fog, the fireball passed through the black fog and hit the ground not far away, blasting a small crater on the ground, and sparks scattered.

The bat rushed out of the black fog again, but this time, the vampire got a signal from Rhodes, and the target of the bat was not the necromancer in front of him.

As soon as the bat emerged from the black fog, it flew towards the sky rapidly. All bats were like this, and none of them stayed in place.

The necromancer didn't realize what happened, but only saw Rhodes rushing towards himself with his sword in hand.
