Chapter 903 The Arrival of the Lich
As Rhodes expected, after the appearance of Titan's Arrow, Eric's attention was undoubtedly attracted by this spell, so he couldn't fully take care of himself who cast the spell.
Eric's moment of distraction is undoubtedly the best time for Rhodes to use the time-space gate to escape, not to mention that Eric's own perception will be disturbed by the shocking mana fluctuation after the appearance of Titan's Arrow.
In Rhode's view, it was his biggest mistake that Eric didn't directly attack himself when he first appeared. If Eric ignored it and even relied on a sneak attack to launch an attack, perhaps the situation would be different immediately.
In the end, relying on the magic scroll of the gate of time and space in his hand, Rhodes successfully returned to the Tomb of Death, and other problems followed.
The Tomb of Death is not a safe place. The surrounding environment is infinitely close to the cursed land, a large number of undead creatures lurking in the darkness, and most importantly, the existence of Lich Stephen, all of which made Rhodes clearly aware that now I still haven't escaped from the danger.
On the contrary, with the ghost king's cloak, he can be regarded as the best prey for Lich Stephen. Rhodes escaped from the hands of the legendary mage Eric casually, but what he still has to face next is not an existence that can be dealt with so easily.
I don't know what it was affected by. When Rhodes appeared after that, the death energy around him began to quickly gather towards Rhodes, as if attracted by something, quickly replenishing the mana consumed by Rhodes.
At the same time, in Rhodes' perception, he seems to have established a special connection with the death energy around him. If Rhodes is willing, he can mobilize all the death energies in this area at this moment, Even like a real lich, casting spells made of death energy.
Rhodes knew that it was the artifact behind him, the ghost king cloak, that brought about these changes for him.
Just as Rhodes perceived everything that happened to him, some new abnormalities began to appear in the field.
I don't know when, in the area in front of Rhodes, the pale white will-o'-the-wisps suddenly extinguished, and darkness began to emerge in this area, and it was rapidly spreading in front of Rhodes.
Looking at the darkness that was gradually approaching him, Rhodes knew that the real master of this place had arrived.
Under the dim light and shadow, a female figure stepped on the broken bones on the ground and emerged from the darkness.
Rhode noticed that the figure that appeared was wearing a complicated spider-shaped crown, and several spider-like decorations hung from the top of her head.
It was made of her hair tied together, and connected with each other with a large piece of black gauze, leaving only the position of the face without any cover.
What this figure is wearing is not the robes that are common among mages, but a one-piece black long skirt. The wide hem of the skirt just drags on the ground. While walking, it is not affected by the broken bones on the ground at all. .
Who would the figure that appeared at this moment be, if not Lich Stephen?
With the appearance of Lich Stephen, a large number of undead creatures that had been hiding in the darkness also revealed their figures at this time.
In the sky, densely packed ghosts have already blocked the sky above this area, but under the cover of the dark sky, they are inconspicuous. Only when the light shines, the shadows fluctuate up and down, forming a scene of ten thousand heads. A moving scene.
On the broken bones on the ground, there were also traces of a large number of undead creatures.
The ranks of these undead creatures that appeared were mixed, and they didn't take specific positions with each other, but just crowded together like this.
Among the higher ranks of these undead creatures, there are vampires that Rhodes has seen, as well as a large number of Lich.
Obviously, even a lich like Stephen, who has accumulated for a long time, also needs to use the Lich as a main long-range means of fighting the enemy in battle.
What made Rhodes concerned was that among these corpses, there were many red-eyed corpses whose soul fires were completely condensed, and whose aura far surpassed that of ordinary corpses.
Through the various characteristics of these corpse witches, Rhodes recognized that these red-eyed corpse witches with special shapes are precisely high-level undead creatures, Lich Kings.
In addition to these undead creatures that appeared on the surface, Rhodes could also feel a special aura lurking among the surrounding undead creatures.
Recalling what he had seen in the City of the Dead before, Rhodes knew that Stephen had an extremely powerful undead creature in his hand, and it did not reveal itself with other undead creatures. That was the existence of the terrifying knight.
The undead creatures that appeared with Stephen can naturally represent the attitude of this Lich to a certain extent.
Looking at Lich Stephen who appeared not far away, Rhodes also had some thoughts in his heart.
When he first came to the Dead Tomb, Rhodes didn't think about leaving here easily.
Just like precious space calibrations, which would be randomly placed next to the abandoned teleportation monuments in the Tomb of Death, Rhodes believed that the entire scene in the Tomb of Death was under the surveillance of Lich Stephen.
Because of this, Rhodes believed that Stephen would notice his arrival early in the morning, and he didn't have to go deep into the Death Tomb like last time to see this powerful Lich. Maybe it won't be long before she will be the first Find yourself.
And Rhodes himself also needs to see this Lich in order to achieve his own goals.
Looking at Stephen, who was covered by the spider-shaped crown, even though he had transformed himself into a lich through the endless night ritual, but still maintained his appearance like an ordinary person, Rhodes knew that the secret technique he wanted to obtain was in the On the body of the Lich.
During this mission to the City of the Dead, Rhodes met many creatures that should have been eroded by death energy, but could still maintain a human face.
For example, Tamik, the lord of the city of death, and Vidnina under Sandro, these existences can still maintain their original faces under the erosion of death energy.
However, the means by which they achieve this are not universal. Tamik relies on the talents of evolved vampires, while Vidnina relies on her own talents, which cannot be copied exactly in the same place. Among other conventional creatures, only Lich Stephen in front of him has such ability.
Trot, who originally came here with Rhodes, is undoubtedly the best example, allowing Rhodes to confirm this point.
After completing the original task, or even ignoring the task requirements, and directly over-completing it, at this time Rhodes will ask the Lich for this secret method in the Tomb of Death.
