Chapter 21 Vampires 1
After spending a few mana points, Rhodes lit the torches prepared in advance and handed them to the walking corpse on the side, and he retreated to the side of the passage.
In the tomb, Rhodes arranged a total of two walking corpses. One was wearing iron armor, holding a broken iron shield in his hand, standing at the entrance of the passage. The other is in its original state, inside the tomb. At this time, the two walking corpses were holding torches in their hands.
Through the mental imprint, Rhodes controlled the walking corpse and began to set the tomb on fire.
The walking corpse took the torch, walked to the coffin at the end, and sent the torch to the side of the coffin, and the flames suddenly rose.
Without stopping, under the control of Rhodes, the walking corpse took the torch and limped to other positions. The flame ignited all the way, and finally came to the iron armored walking corpse, igniting the wood piled up in front of the passage.
At this time, all the wood placed in the tomb was set on fire. There was already a fire in the tomb.
The energy of death in the tomb was expelled a lot under the burning of this flame.
Rhodes continued to control the walking dead. After the entire tomb was set on fire, the walking corpse passed through the sea of fire, placed the torch on the coffin, and began to light the coffin.
At this point, the entire coffin began to vibrate violently. The undead creatures that were sleeping inside the coffin woke up.
The feet of the walking corpse were burnt to black, and a strange smell mixed with rotting corpses and charred things came out. Even so, the characteristics of the undead creature allowed the walking corpse to still ignite the coffin according to Rhodes' control. The high physique attribute prevents the walking corpse from dying in a short time.
boom! boom!
Inside the coffin, there was a heavy crashing sound. The undead creatures inside also sensed something wrong and wanted to get out of the coffin.
Rhodes tried to get the walking corpse to open the coffin, but it didn't work, apparently nailed to death.
During the preparations in the past few days, Rhodes also observed the coffin many times. There was no special mark on the coffin, and there were no patterns around it. Rhodes did not dare to touch the coffin directly, for fear that the undead creatures inside would notice it.
Only then did Rhode let the walking corpse try to open the coffin. This is also to release the undead creatures inside the coffin as soon as possible, so as to avoid the meaningless consumption of the air in the tomb after the flame is ignited.
boom!
Just as the walking corpse was trying to push on the side of the coffin, a hand hit through the burning coffin board and stretched out, and then it was burned by the flames on the coffin board. The hand hurriedly retracted, and there was another dull crashing sound inside the coffin.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Rhode controlled the walking corpse and directly stabbed the flaming torch through the hole pierced by his arm.
The struggle inside the coffin intensified, and the walking corpse seemed to use a lot of strength to press down the torch.
The flames caused a lot of damage to the undead creatures inside, and the coffin began to vibrate wildly, and then it cracked directly, and countless bats flew out from it!
"A vampire..."
Seeing the bat flying out of the coffin, Rhodes immediately understood the identity of the undead creature in front of him, a vampire!
Bat transformation is a signature skill of vampires.
According to Rhodes' idea, no matter what kind of undead creature is inside the coffin, when it emerges from the broken coffin, the walking corpse in front will lean on its own body, drag the undead creature inside, and trap it in the sea of fire.
However, with the appearance of bats, the walking corpses that tried to hold the undead creatures failed to play any role. The walking corpse waved the torch in his hand randomly, trying to attack the group of bats.
There are many bats. But just as the walking corpse swung the torch down, the bat swarms were able to quickly separate a path and precisely avoid the walking corpse's attack.
Ignoring the walking corpse holding the torch, the bat flew towards the back of the tomb. The waving of the walking corpse didn't work, and he wanted to grab the bat that left, but because his feet were nearly melted, he lost his mobility and could only stay in the sea of flames to die.
After confirming the types of undead creatures, Rhode did not care about the walking corpses left in place.
Instead, he exited the tomb passage, and at the same time released several large wooden blocks from the space ring, blocking the entrance to the tomb.
Rhodes walked towards the back, and at the same time used the space ring to put in the large wooden block reserved aside.
Inside the tomb, the walking corpse in iron armor ignited the stacked wooden blocks behind it, and also set all the wooden blocks placed on the ground under his feet on fire.
Since all the wooden blocks stacked as obstacles were to be ignited, Rhodes could not do it alone, and could only rely on the walking corpses left inside.
The bat rushed to the side of the armored walking corpse, and the armored walking corpse threw the torch on the ground and raised the shield to protect its head.
In a blink of an eye, bats were hung under the walking corpse, and the bat embedded its claws into the corpse's body while biting the flesh and blood of the walking corpse. The walking corpse didn't react at all, just blocked in front of the passage according to Rhode's control.
Quite a few bats slammed into the walking dead's iron shield, but to no avail. Since the back of the walking corpse is a pile of flame barriers, the bat can't attack the walking corpse's back, but can only bite the walking corpse's legs.
The fire inside the tomb became larger and larger, and a black smoke burst out. Many bats fell into the sea of fire and disappeared directly into a cloud of black mist, leaving no corpses behind.
For a time, many bats fell.
Finally, before the walking corpse fell, the bats began to gather in front of the walking corpse. With a large cloud of black mist gushing out, the figure of the vampire emerged.
The vampire was right in front of the walking corpse, and the walking corpse still followed Rhodes' instructions and completely retracted his upper body behind the shield, completely unaware of what happened.
It's a pity that Rhodes was unable to command the walking corpse because his sight was blocked. If Rhodes can see the inside of the tomb, then he will immediately let the walking corpse rush towards the vampire with a shield and block it by hitting it. It can be delayed for a while.
The flames scorched the vampire's legs in an instant, burning upwards along the vampire's rotting clothes.
The vampire rushed directly to the walking corpse, pushing with all his strength towards the iron shield held by the walking corpse. The powerful strength attribute made the walking corpse have no resistance, and slammed into the ignited wooden block behind. The barrier that was supposed to block the vampire was bumped into by the vampire pushing the walking corpse.
Under the powerful force of the vampire, the entire body of the walking corpse smashed into the barrier. The flames burned the walking corpse's back, making a sizzling sound. The walking corpse knocked the originally stacked wooden blocks out of a gap.
At this time, the vampire himself was not feeling well, and his feet were constantly being burned by the flames.
Since the walking corpse is still blocking the front, this gap is not too big.
There was no choice to continue to push towards the walking corpse. In order to prevent the flames from continuing to burn, a large cloud of black mist erupted from the vampire's body. The original figure disappeared, and a large number of bats rushed out of it, passed the walking corpse, and flew towards the gap.
The walking corpse only felt that the thrust in front of the body was light, but with its wisdom, it couldn't understand what was going on. It just held up the shield and stayed in the sea of fire.
Seeing the scattered pieces of wood and a large number of bats flying out from behind, Rhode knew that the first barrier had been broken by the vampires.
The bats re-gathered in front of the hall. The figure of the vampire just appeared, but only saw the back of Rhodes exiting the hall.
