Chapter 1453: Underground Lord
Blood pooled on the dagger held in Rhodes' hand, and the arcane pattern gradually became clear around the ritual dagger.
Perceiving the anomalous fluctuations around him, Rhodes looked ahead, where a portal was slowly opening.
The appearance of the portal looks no different from the space spell that Rhodes is familiar with, the only difference is that the entire portal is made of scarlet blood.
Checking the system log, Rhodes noticed that after completing the Blood Sacrifice, the base damage of the Ritual Dagger increased by a little, and it seemed that as long as he completed the ritual enough times, the dagger in his hand could be greatly improved.
According to common sense, the upper limit of the growth of treasures will be limited by the materials used to make treasures, and the vast majority of treasures do not even have the ability to grow at all, but the ritual dagger in Rhodes's hand is obviously not among them, and it can be continuously improved by completing the ritual.
Rhodes even suspected that the [Blood Tribute] he had exchanged for the [Omen of Doom] was most likely the final form in which the ritual dagger could grow.
Weapons that belong to demons, and even the hell demons themselves, often need to be killed in order to grow in strength.
"The portal has been opened, and I feel a familiar aura, the underground lord, right behind the portal." Aceri looked away from the corpse on the ground, looked at Rhodes and said, "This portal only allows the ritual guide to pass through, no other creatures can pass through, and, it is worth noting, that the underground lord is a powerful hero. ”
Rod nodded, "You and Smaid stay here and wait for me, I'll be back soon." ”
With that, Rhodes stepped forward quickly and entered the blood-colored portal alone.
Space shifted, and once again he stepped on solid ground, and Rhodes was plunged into darkness.
In his ears, in addition to the subtle sound of water flowing, there was also a very dense "hissing" sound, and in the perception, the breath of a large number of living creatures was surrounding Rhodes at this time.
Rod raised his hand, and the flames ignited from above his palm, illuminating the space around him, and the eyeballs on the farsighted pendant kept turning, allowing Rod to see everything around him clearly.
In the spacious enclosed space, dense with small snakes, coiled on the surrounding walls, Rhodes's arrival, as if disturbing them, these snakes are constantly wriggling their bodies, the whole wall seems to come to life.
Rhodes' brows furrowed, and the dark clouds overflowed from his body, and under the erosion of the clouds of death, not a single snake could hold out for a moment, and fell from the surface of the wall.
"Who dares to hurt my child?"
In the depths of the darkness, a roar of rage echoed through the deep underground passages.
The eyeballs on the farsighted pendant followed the prestige, and I saw a hero with a human head and a snake body, and a red snake on his head, slowly emerging from the end of the deep passage.
"Medusa......" Rhodes recognized her identity, and he didn't expect that the underground lord in Ace's mouth turned out to be a Medusa, judging from the rank, this gorgon, actually has the strength of a legendary creature.
Medusa is one of the common creatures in the underworld, and is also known as the Gorgons by sorcerers because of her first-born snakehead. As long as you look them directly into their eyes, they will be petrified by Medusa, which is why in the underworld, their heads are a good hexical material.
Rhodes seemed to have discovered something, and his mood became solemn, according to common sense, they were born to reach the fourth-order Medusa, their growth is poor, and high-level creatures are already their apex, and it is almost impossible to touch the realm of legendary creatures, let alone give birth to a legendary hero.
From the momentum emanating from this Medusa, Rhodes seemed to feel an aura that he was familiar with, the same as the [Blood Tribute] in his hand, which belonged to the hellish demon.
Just as Rod was observing Medusa, Medusa was also observing Rode, and as if she had discovered something, she let out a cold snort:
"You are also one of those who receive the judgment of the gift, do you know the rules? This is the area that I, the Inquisitor Kanathan, are in charge of, and you dare to harm my children in my territory, so why don't you get out of my territory quickly! ”
Rod was stunned, he obviously didn't expect this Medusa to say this, but fortunately, Medusa saw his human identity and spoke the lingua franca, although with a lot of accents, Rod could still understand it.
Perhaps because of the [Omen of Doom], Rhodes realized that the Medusa in front of him regarded himself as a judge.
Following Medusa's words, Rhodes may have been able to get a lot of useful information, but he was not prepared to do so, no matter what the doomsday believers had, Rhodes' top priority was to save Rowling's soul.
"I'm not a judge, I'm here for you. Listen to Acery, you can go through the underground passages to any town in Erathia, right? I want to join forces with you and launch an attack on Erathia. Rod asked in a deep voice.
"Acery? I remember, you're talking about the Lich of the Overworld. As he spoke, Kanathan looked thoughtful, and then looked at Rhodes with an unkind face, "I did dig up those underground passages, but why should I join forces with you?" I haven't settled accounts with you about killing my children. ”
Rhodes said slowly, "If we join forces and can inflict heavy losses on Erathia, I believe that the demons in the depths of Hell would also like to see this happen, and you can also be rewarded, won't you?" Not to mention ......"
As he spoke, Rod raised his hand, and a rich amount of death energy overflowed from his palm.
With his movements, on the ground around him, the originally dead little snake, after shedding the flesh and blood on its body, stood up again in the form of the Corpse Witch King, with a scarlet light flashing in its eyes.
"I didn't hurt your child. They're just useless creatures, and you should thank me for giving them a new lease of life and letting them complete their rank transformation, don't you? Rod asked with a smile.
"You ......" Canathan was so angry with Rod that he couldn't even speak coherently, and the little snakes on his head let out a low roar at Rhodes, revealing their sharp fangs, "Get out of my territory, or I'll let you know the inoffensive majesty of the Inquisitor." ”
"You shouldn't have turned me down." Rod's face darkened, and he drew the blade from his waist with one hand, "However, this is only temporary, until I kill you and transform you into a death knight, you will never be able to refuse my request." ”
As the words fell, Rod's figure flashed, and the next moment, he appeared behind the Gorgon.
