Chapter 73 The First Test of the Dagger

There was only a sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, and a large piece of rattan fell to the ground.

Before the red light on the dagger dissipated, Rhode waved the dagger again, wanting to continue to injure the rattan. However, since the rattan had a tendency to shrink toward the rear, after the front part was cut off, it immediately shrank back.

On the side, the rest of the rattan were also taken back.

Although these canes have been taken back, the piece of cane that fell from the ground will undoubtedly stay here forever.

After the surrounding rattan was retracted, Rhode did not put the dagger in his hand into the space ring, but just held it in his hand.

Earlier, when he got the tissue on the rattan, Rhode found that it was very tough, and Rhode realized that it seemed difficult to cut the rattan with a sword. At this time, Rhodes thought of the magic dagger obtained from the blue-robed mage.

Therefore, when Rhodes found that he really couldn't cut the rattan, he immediately took out the dagger from the space ring.

After scratching his arm, the red light appeared on the dagger, which was consistent with Rhode's preconceived idea, and the dagger easily cut off the cane.

At this time, Rhodes had an idea in his heart that as long as he supplied blood to the dagger, all objects in front of it would be cut off by it.

Thinking of this, Rhode suddenly felt that he had established a connection with the dagger, just like the connection between Rhodes and the undead creatures, but this connection was very subtle, and it would be difficult to find it if Rhode didn't perceive it carefully. .

The dagger in his hand gave Rhodes a strange feeling, as if something was watching his every move through the dagger.

At this point, the wound on Rhodes' arm had stopped bleeding. Since Rhodes has 16 physical attributes, among Rhodes' overall attributes, his physique is the highest item. Due to the recovery ability brought by his physique, as long as the wound is not particularly deep, after a period of time, Rhodes can recover on his own.

In the same way, because the wound that Rhode cut on his hand was not deep, at this time, the red light on the dagger subsided and turned into the original bland appearance.

Although the dagger returned to its original state, Rhode knew that this was just its appearance.

The dagger severes the tough cane with ease. Rhode recalled that from the previous battle with the blue-robed mage to the current cutting of the rattan, there was no object that could resist the dagger, and they were all cut off by the dagger in an instant.

After the dagger is stained with the owner's blood, it is like a magic weapon, allowing the owner of the dagger to defeat powerful enemies, and at the same time, it will also make people dependent on the dagger.

The desire to continue using the dagger rose in Rhodes' heart. Rhodes knew that this magic dagger should be his strongest weapon at this stage.

However, Rhodes seemed to realize something, looked at the dagger in his hand, and remained silent.

When holding the dagger, Rhode realized the desire in his heart that he wanted to ignore it and just use this dagger to defeat all unknown enemies. This thought flashed through Rhodes' mind, but Rhodes caught it keenly.

With the passage of time, this desire subsided from Rhodes' heart, and the dagger was completely restored to its original shape.

The scene when the blue-robed mage died in battle appeared in front of Rhodes. It was precisely because the blue-robed mage believed too much in the dagger in his hand that he lost his will at the last moment and was completely controlled by the dagger, although his combat ability had improved. , but completely lost himself spiritually, and finally died at the hands of Rhodes.

At this time, the dagger began to lure its new owner, which is why Rhodes developed a strong dependence on this dagger in his heart.

Aware of this happening, although Rhodes' mysticism level is still not high, Rhodes also has some guesses about the origin of the dagger.

This style of enticing people to use it and waiting for the critical moment to seize the user's spiritual will,

Exactly what the hell races use.

Rhode realized that the dagger in his hand had a lot to do with the hell family, but for some unknown reason, it fell to the surface world and was finally acquired by the blue-robed mage.

On the side, because the rattan retreated to the rear, after losing the enemy, the surrounding undead creatures suddenly stopped moving, waiting for further instructions from Rhodes.

At this time, Rhode finally took his eyes off the dagger and looked at the depths of the mansion, where the source of the rattan, the body of the bone rattan, was located.

Although with this dagger, it can deal with bone vines very well, but with the lessons of the blue-robed mage, Rhode obviously did not dare to put all his hopes on the dagger.

Therefore, to deal with bone vines, Rhode still needs to follow the original plan.

Through the control of the mental imprint, Rhode let the vampire walk in front again, followed by three ghosts, and walked towards the interior of the room, while Rhode held the dagger and followed behind them, ready to shoot the cane at the right time. break.

Outside the room, the ghost didn't do anything. In order to prevent the passage from being blocked, it still stood there. Rhodes will not let the ghost enter until the undead creatures in front are damaged.

Coming to the interior of the room, there is a long and narrow passage. This room was apparently specially constructed to allow the rattan's attack to work effectively. A little light came from the passage, allowing Rhodes to see the surrounding scene clearly.

After moving forward for a while, the passage changed from long and narrow to wide. Perhaps it was the fear of the dagger in Rhode's hand. During the process of moving forward, Rhode was not attacked by the rattan again.

Just when Rhodes was thinking about whether he needed to let several ghosts enter the passage, Rhodes stopped moving forward, and the undead creatures around him stopped instantly.

Through the light ahead, Rhode keenly observed that at the end of the passage, there were several rows of skeleton warriors.

The skeleton warriors standing side by side blocked the entire passage, and the rattan attacked from the gap between the skeleton warriors.

These skeleton warriors are the skeleton warriors who retreated into the mansion first after the death of the original fake mayor. At this time, they are lined up here to resist Rhode's attack.

Rhodes looked behind the skeleton warrior. Although there was only a little light behind, Rhode realized that the root system of the bone vine was not far from here.

According to Rhode's original test on the tissue on the bone vine, as long as the bone vine can be burned there, the bone vine can be eliminated, but the mayor obviously will not reveal such a big flaw, but will guard this place and prevent Rhode from approaching .

For a creature like bone vine, if the mayor tries to control its vines, under the command of the mayor, its attack will be restricted, which is no more threatening than letting it attack freely.

Therefore, the mayor only needs to fully control the skeleton warrior to resist here, let the rattan attack by itself, and then destroy the enemy.

Just when Rhodes realized this situation, the mayor cast spells directly on the undead creatures under his command. Then, the group of skeleton warriors in front charged towards Rhodes and his party with shields.

The speed of the Skeleton Warrior was much faster than what Rhode had seen before. Since the room was not spacious, the Skeleton Warrior charged with a shield, which brought a shock and hit the ghosts and vampires beside Rhodes.

The vampire and the ghost were taken a few steps back by the impact of the skeleton warrior, then they stabilized their body and began to fight with the skeleton warrior.

Because the speed of the undead creatures was greatly improved by the mayor's use of spells, for a while, the skeleton warriors cooperated and relied on the shields in their hands to suppress the ghosts and vampires in place.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, a cane shot straight from the gap between the skeleton warriors towards a ghost on the edge.

Since the ghost was fighting with the skeleton warrior with all its strength, the rattan hit the ghost directly, and the body of the ghost was unstable, and was pressed by the skeleton warrior and retreated a lot.

At this time, there were multiple rattan shots, the number far exceeding the rattan that had attacked outside the door before. Seeing this, Rhodes stepped forward to resist.

Due to the increase in the number of rattan, in order to be able to resist it, Rhodes ignored the threat brought by the dagger, and directly used the dagger to cut the arm of his other hand.

After sucking the blood from Rhode's arm, a red light began to appear on the dagger, which was deeper than the previous red light.

Rhodes came to the side of the ghost, and facing the rattan coming straight, Rhodes directly waved the dagger to meet him.

The rattan slammed into the dagger directly, and was split into two parts by the dagger. Rhode, who was wielding the dagger, didn't even feel any hindrance.

Rhodes swung the dagger to the side forcefully, and half of the rattan fell to the ground. At the same time, the rattan suddenly retracted backwards, but Rhodes continued to swing the dagger. Cut off.

At this time, the red light on Rhodes' dagger faded away, not as bright as before, but it was still able to maintain the sharpness of the dagger.

In front, a skeleton warrior held a shield and wanted to hit Rhodes with the shield and force Rhodes back.

Looking at the skeleton warrior, Rhodes swung the dagger. A red light flashed through the air, exactly the trajectory of Rhodes swinging his dagger.

Following the trajectory of the red light, the upper part of the shield in the hands of the skeleton warrior fell directly to the ground.

Another red light flashed across, and the skull warrior's head fell to the ground.

At this time, the red light of the dagger in Rhode's hand faded, and if he wanted to use it again, he must continue to apply blood.

Perhaps it was the reason for using the dagger many times, and the desire in Rhodes' heart was even stronger.

In his consciousness, a word was telling Rhodes that as long as he used the dagger, all the enemies in front of him would be easily killed by him, whether it was these skeleton warriors or the bone vines behind him. As long as you continue to cut yourself with the dagger, you can defeat these enemies.

But Rhodes did not choose to do so, but forcibly suppressed the thoughts in his heart.

Rhodes knew that once he put all his hopes of fighting on this dagger, his fate would be the same as that of the blue-robed mage.

The skeleton warrior on the side attacked Rhodes. Rhode changed the dagger to the other hand and held it, took out the original iron sword from the space ring, and began to fight the skeleton warrior.

Since there has been a battle before, whether it is Rhodes or the mayor, they all know the fighting style of the other person. Simply relying on simple battles, it is impossible to determine the winner in a short time.

Just as Rhodes cooperated with the undead creatures under him to suppress a lot of skeleton warriors, suddenly, there was a wave of magic, and then Rhodes felt that his movements became slow, and he wanted to wave the weapon in his hand, but the speed was much lower.

Rhodes realized that the Great Law of Slowness was applied to him, and the undead creatures controlled by Rhodes were also affected by the Great Law of Slowness.

And the skeleton warrior on the mayor's side was given a spell to increase the speed attribute. With such an increase and a decrease, the skeleton warrior well resisted the undead creature beside Rhodes.

At this moment, a cane shot straight out, but the target it attacked was not Rhodes, but a ghost farthest away from Rhodes.

Due to the speed, the two vines quickly wrapped around the ghost, pulling the ghost to the rear, and the skeleton warrior behind took the opportunity to slash at the ghost.

The skeleton warrior's attack couldn't cause much damage to the ghost, but at this time, another vine shot straight out at the ghost. The mayor also obviously realized that while Rhodes had a dagger in his hand, the rattan appeared near Rhodes and would only be cut off by him in an instant.

Although I don't know the origin of the dagger in Rhodes' hands, the mayor has a general understanding of the efficacy of the dagger after these several attacks.

Therefore, the mayor made his own command, that is, he ignored Rhodes at all, and gave priority to attacking the undead creatures beside Rhodes. The reason why he gave priority to attacking ghosts was also because vampires could use bats to evade, and their vitality was stronger.

At this time, several skeleton warriors quickly approached and blocked Rhodes who went to support the ghost.

Facing the skeleton warriors in front of him, due to the reduced speed and the skeleton warriors' single-minded resistance, Rhodes could only be blocked behind the shield for a while, unable to pass these skeleton warriors and come to the side of the ghost.

On the side, the rest of the ghosts also tried to help the ghost entangled in the vines to resist the attack of the vines in front, but due to the strict defense of the surrounding skeleton warriors, and the vines have pulled the ghosts to the skeleton warrior formation. Among them, the rest of the undead creatures can't help the ghost either.

Since the ghost was entangled by the rattan, under the circumstance that it could not dodge, facing the collision of the rattan, the ghost's own recovery ability did not play any role.

When Rhodes used swordsmanship to solve the skeleton warrior in front of him and came to the ghost, the ghost had already been killed by the rattan.

The skeleton warrior filled the original vacancy and continued to suppress the ghosts beside Rhodes. Seeing the rattan shoot in his direction again, Rhode knew that he couldn't wait any longer.

Once you wait like this, the undead creatures around you will be killed by the mayor one by one. Maybe Rhodes and the vampires can escape from here, but the remaining two ghosts, even if they want to escape to the rear, will be entangled by rattan. As for those ghosts at the rear, it may not have much effect.

At this time, two vines attacked again, entangling a ghost on the side, trying to kill it. The skeleton warriors surrounding the ghost immediately surrounded it.

Seeing this, Rhodes held the dagger in his left hand and opened his right arm holding the sword.
