On the border of Diya, the most famous large town is the City of Sorrow.

Due to its geographical location, the City of Sorrow was the last city of the dead that the necromancers passed through before heading to Erie, and at one point became an outpost for the necromancers to attack Ery. The place is shrouded in darkness all day long, and there is no sunlight in sight.

At this time, not far from the gate of the City of Sorrows, several guards were constantly busy.

Due to the spread of information, all of a sudden, a large number of necromancers gathered towards the City of Sorrow, which naturally made these guards at the gate of the city suffer.

There are no restrictions on visitors to the City of Sorrows, and any race can enter it. The purpose of the guards staying here is naturally not to check the luggage of passing personnel.

At this moment, an apprentice necromancer came to the city gate, followed by several walking corpses.

Seeing this, one of the guards directly greeted him and led the apprentice in another direction.

Just a little far from the city gate, a large number of low-level undead creatures gathered. Whether it's the more common skeletons, walking corpses, ghosts, and ghosts, you can see them here. In addition, there are many special kinds of undead creatures.

The apprentice left the walking corpse behind him, and then returned to the city gates and entered the city.

After guiding the apprentices, the guard returned to where he had been, and after standing for a while, he found a place to sit down when he saw that there was no one around.

The purpose of the existence of these guards is to allow the necromancers who are about to enter the city to leave their low-level undead creatures here.

It is customary in the City of Sorrow to not allow low-level undead creatures to enter the city. The unified placement of low-level undead creatures here is also so that after the death of the necromancer, the apprentices stationed here can control the undead creatures as soon as possible.

After sitting down, the guard sighed.

This guard has another layer of identity, being an apprentice who has just joined the Crow Necromancer Academy.

Due to the recent years of joining the Academy, the guards were only able to take on low-level tasks from the Academy. Guiding the returning necromancer at the city gate was his first mission.

The guards knew that in a few days, when this mission was over, they would no longer be able to take on such easy tasks, and the academy would force them to give them even more difficult tasks.

Just as the guards were thinking about what to do, the sound of horses' hooves sounded from afar, and a figure appeared from afar, getting closer and closer to the City of Sorrows.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, the guard slowly stood up. Since the city of sorrow does not allow the horses to be in the streets, the guards are ready to stop them.

During the guidance of these few days, all the people who entered the City of Sorrow did not deliberately embarrass the guards in front of them. The smooth guidance of these days has made the guards still immersed in their own problems.

It wasn't until the horse stopped directly in front of the guard's eyes that the guard realized this, raised his head, and looked at the man on the horse.

At this time, after seeing the scene in front of him clearly, the guard seemed to realize something, his pupils shrank, and at the same time, a powerful shock appeared in his heart.

I saw that the man was wearing a black robe, enveloping his entire body in it, making it difficult for people to see his face clearly. On the man's shoulder stood a strange bat, staring at the apprentice in front of him, his eyes revealing a bloodthirsty desire.

At this time, the guard also saw the mount under him, the body of a half-man and half-horse, plus the weapon in his hand, even if the guard did not have much knowledge, he also realized that this was the centaur inside Eli.

The guards have also seen many powerful necromancers, but they are all with a large number of undead creatures, similar to the person in front of them, and the guards have not seen much.

At this time, the black-robed man on the half-human horse put down the hood on his head, revealing his original face, which was Rod.

Since Rod didn't know why he was stopped, he didn't make any moves, just looked at the guard in front of him, apparently letting the guard explain to him.

The guard opened his mouth for a moment of nervousness, but did not say anything.

Just as the two fell silent, at this time, another guard with the level of senior apprentice at the gate of the city walked in front of Rhodes and said to Rhodes:

"I'm sorry, this guard doesn't know the rules very well, and he inadvertently caused some offense, but please follow the rules of the city and leave the low-level undead creatures in the gathering place outside the city."

Hearing this, Rod didn't pay attention to the low-level apprentice in front of him, but looked at the guard who spoke.

Seeing that Rhodes didn't reply, the guard continued, "If I'm not mistaken, the centaur under you should be a low-level undead creature with no self-awareness, if you want to enter the city, please leave it outside." ”

At this time, the bat standing on Rod's shoulder seemed to feel the hostility of the guard in front of him, and let out a piercing chirp at the guard. The bat's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty light, and it seemed that in the next second, it would pounce directly on the guard in front of it.

Rhodes raised his hand and waved it twice to calm the bat, and then dismounted directly, and under the guidance of this guard, he came to the location where the rest of the people were housed by the undead creatures.

And the original low-level apprentice remained in place, watching Rhodes go away, not knowing what he was thinking.

Under the control of the spirit imprint, the centaur walked to an empty seat, and then stood still, waiting for Rod's next order.

Rod didn't say much, and directly placed the centaur here, since this centaur was only chosen for transportation, its strength was not the strongest. For the current Rhodes, even if he is placed here, it will not make any difference.

Rhodes knew that this act of placing low-level undead creatures outside the city was to prevent further chaos inside the city.

Placing undead creatures outside the city is also to give low-level apprentices room to improve. In the City of Sorrows, even if it is a senior apprentice, if there is no high-level undead creature around him, if he wants to fight, he can only rely on the spells he has learned.

However, after accepting the task issued by the academy and leaving the city, the situation was different. In the mission, it still depends on the overall strength of the necromancer.

After setting up the centaurs, Rhodes returned to the original entrance, intending to enter the city from here.

When Rhodes was about to enter the City of Sorrow, the low-level apprentice who had guided Rhodes at the beginning stretched out his hand and handed out an item to Rhodes, saying, "This is a map of the city, I hope it can help you." ”

Rhodes knew that the apprentice in front of him, although his strength was not strong, he could see that it was the first time he had come to the City of Sorrow from other aspects, so he handed him the map.

Rhodes took the map, glanced at the guard, and walked into the city.
