Chapter 314: Ambush
? Two days later.
The heavy snow outside the village has long ceased. After losing all the villagers, the interior of the village returned to its original silence. Around the village, there seems to be an extremely ominous atmosphere.
If a powerful mage appeared here, he would be able to easily feel the death energy surrounding the village, but he could not find any undead creatures there.
In a house in the village, Rhodes just finished a meditation.
After restoring the mana to its full value, Rhodes converted part of the death energy and injected it into the Mother of Souls for storage.
In the previous process, Rhodes had performed this behavior many times, and the absorption of death energy by the Mother of Souls was still far from the limit.
After converting a small half of the mana, Rhodes was about to continue to meditate, but suddenly he sensed the message from the Mother of Souls.
After two days of waiting, the creatures finally appeared outside the village, and the undead creatures lurking around the village were alerted.
After the Mother of Souls learned about these situations, she immediately let Rhodes know about it. Rhode knew that this was the Silver Cliff City power he had been waiting for for a long time.
Since he couldn't get accurate information from the Mother of Souls, when he realized this, Rhodes stopped staying in the house, called Rowling next to him, and walked out of the house.
As soon as Rhode walked out of the house, he saw these creatures around him.
While Rhodes was meditating, the entire village was surrounded by an army at some point. Among the troops, the leader was a knight in gorgeous armor. Not only that, but the horse he sat on was also covered with a layer of silver-white armor.
This troop has obviously discovered the anomalies around the village, and most of the members of the troop clenched their weapons and looked in the direction of Rhodes as if they were facing a big enemy.
Through the perception of the accompanying mages in the army, these people already know that there is a strong death energy around the village. Although they don't know what happened in the village, they still raise their vigilance to the highest level when facing Rhode who does not know his identity. .
In this case, the knight at the head was the first to react, and he didn't care about Rhode's identity, and immediately asked Rhode: "Who are you? Where is the village chief here? Enke, the lower-level attendant, come out. see me."
Although I don't know Rhode's identity,
But the knight obviously didn't take it to heart.
Regarding the real mission of this trip, among this group of people, only this knight knew enough information. As a confidant of Silver Cliff City Lord Elon, this knight obviously did not want to say anything to Rhodes.
From this knight's point of view, everything in this village doesn't need to be cared about. Even the village chief here is just a former low-level attendant. If it wasn't for his luck, not only did he not die in the war, He also made a certain contribution, and was willing to follow Elon to Brakada, and he was not qualified to be the village chief.
Similar to this kind of mining village, the village chief can say that he has absolute control over the creatures under his command. Only when higher-level personnel arrive, the village chief's rights will be restricted.
Through the information that the city lord Elron told him privately, if the villagers here dared to resist, the knight even had the authority to kill them all. In this case, the knights certainly wouldn't care about the villagers here.
Rhodes noticed that this troop surrounded the village before discovering the abnormality of the village. Looking at their membership and the sophistication of their equipment, Rhodes would not have any doubts even if they were rushing to the front to fight.
And such a powerful force, their goal is very obvious, it is for this mining village, or they are for the soul crystal that exists inside the mining village.
If the information provided by the village is not wrong, the village chief has already reported the situation of the Revenant Crystal, and seems to have expected this.
Under the circumstance that Rhodes had obtained the Mother of Souls, the village chief did not have the courage to resist the army with Rhodes, but chose to expel Rhodes and put the treasures away completely on Rhodes' head. , in order to protect the village.
But, unfortunately, the village chief did not even wait for the arrival of this army. His choice eventually led to the complete destruction of the entire village.
Looking at the knight in front, Rhodes did not answer his words.
When the knight could accurately say the identity of the village chief, the faction he belonged to was also directly determined, and it was Silver Cliff City that came from the same side as the village chief.
After understanding this, Rhode didn't say anything more, just gave an order to the Mother of Souls.
In an instant, with a lot of rising snow fog, this troop fell directly into chaos.
Even though they were already prepared to face the attack, when the attack really came, the unit was still caught off guard.
When Rhodes gave the order to attack, the Mother of Souls immediately controlled the undead creatures lurking around and launched an attack on the unit.
Generally speaking, since the formation of this troop has been deployed, even in the face of an ambush, it can be handled well, but to their surprise, the ambush came from the snow under their feet.
It turned out that Rhode was ready for all this long before he meditated, watching the heavy snow in the sky.
Since the scope of the village is not large, there are only a few ways to completely surround it. Rhode simply speculated on a few most likely locations, and then let the undead creatures lurking in the snow, waiting for the silver People from Yacheng.
Due to the special physique of undead creatures, it is difficult for even high-level professionals to hide, but they can execute well. In addition, after the strength of the mother of the dead, these undead creatures have played an extremely important role in ambush. big effect.
In the snow, undead creatures appeared one after another, and immediately attacked the humans beside them.
In this situation, very few people can react immediately. Even if they reacted and tried to parry the attacks of these undead creatures, they would immediately be shocked by the strength of this group of undead creatures.
Many weaker humans even fell directly under the attack of undead creatures.
Faced with these newly appeared corpses, the Mother of Souls immediately took action, releasing a large amount of death energy from them, transforming them into undead creatures.
Watching the fallen comrade immediately stand up and attack himself with a stronger stance, the morale of this unit began to show signs of collapse.
