Chapter 603: Explosion II
After the explosion, the creature that stayed above the heads of these mages was none other than the ghost dragon controlled by Rhodes.
On the ghost dragon, Rhodes was staring at the creatures that existed below, and there were a lot of thoughts in his heart.
After learning the information about the battlefield, under the guidance of the vampire, Rhodes immediately took control of the ghost dragon to the area.
Along the way, Rhodes also learned more about these elemental creatures from vampires, and in the process, Rhodes also discovered a lot of anomalies.
Rhodes noticed that in the information provided by the vampires, the strength of these elemental creatures far exceeded Rod's original cognition, and in Rhodes' opinion, even in the elemental plane, elemental creatures of the same level were not as powerful as these elemental creatures encountered by vampires.
Since elemental creatures have no mana limit, their power is reflected in the casting of spells.
In Rhodes's opinion, the power of a single spell cast by these elemental creatures may not be as powerful as that of a real high-level mage, but in these spells, there are extremely special spell-casting skills, which is the reason why these elemental creatures are powerful.
These discoveries undoubtedly made Rhodes extremely surprised, recalling some important information in his previous life, Rhodes seemed to be aware of the special identity of these elemental creatures.
Because of this, when Rhodes returned to Verning and received information about the elemental creatures, he didn't even have time to ask the centaur leader for more information, so he immediately rushed to the location of these elemental creatures.
Due to the existence of the ghost dragon, Rhodes and his party were attacked by mages and elemental creatures as soon as they appeared on the battlefield, without giving Rhodes any chance to explain, and this was also in line with Rhodes' original expectations, Rod chose to come here, not just to observe these elemental creatures.
Faced with the spells cast by the elemental creatures, Rhodes originally wanted the ghost dragon to resist with his powerful physique.
Rhodes believed that when the dragon bones on his body changed, the overall strength of the ghost dragon also improved a lot, and he obviously would not be afraid of the surrounding ice arrows.
However, Rowling, who was also on the ghost dragon, did not give the ghost dragon such a chance. Faced with the surrounding attack magic, Rowling immediately cast the Hercules shield to block all these spells.
Seeing the Hercules shield shrouded in the ghost dragon in his eyes, Rhodes knew that compared to the spells he had cast before, Rowling's spellcasting method had obviously improved a lot.
Although the Hercules shield cast by Rowling could not move with the ghost dragon and could only stay where the ghost dragon passed, it still blocked all the ice arrows and did not cause any damage to the ghost dragon.
According to Rowling, Rod knew that he could not directly learn this special spell casting method from her, so he could only wait until his rank was improved before thinking of other ways.
In addition to casting the Hercules Aegis, Rowling also cast a spell that dealt an extremely severe blow to all the creatures present in the field.
The spell that Rowling cast was the one that crushed the infernal flames that the mage resisted. The special spell of Hell Flame, under Rowling's casting, is no less powerful than that of any high-level mage himself.
The spell of Hellflame was found by Rhodes in a spellbook he had harvested on his way back to Verning from Bracada.
Both Thork and Northam's magic books recorded this powerful fourth-order magic, and with the existence of wisdom, Rhodes immediately mastered it.
In addition to the Hell Flame, the fifth-order magic meteor rain that had previously destroyed the entire Ice Blue Spell Academy, Rhodes also found the corresponding record in Northon's magic book.
Compared to the fourth-order Hell Flame, although the Meteor Rain was only one rank higher, the damage it could cause was several notches higher. No matter how many Hell Flames are cast together, it will be difficult to achieve the effect of a meteor shower.
Because of this, on his way back to Werning, Rhodes immediately searched for Norson's magic book, from which he found a record of meteor showers.
In the process of flipping through the magic book, Rhodes noticed that in Norson's magic book, the space occupied by various fourth-order spells was only one side at most, and there were only a few records of a few low-level spells, which were not like Sock's magic book, which had detailed records of most spells.
The account of the meteor shower took up dozens of pages in the magic book, and in Rhodes' opinion, just copying the spell would take a lot of the mage's time, let alone understanding it.
Unlike ordinary spells, which can be cast by a mage with a raise of his hand, a spell like a meteor shower requires an extremely cumbersome step to guide the mana at all times. This extremely tedious step corresponds to the powerful effect of this magic.
For this powerful spell, although Rhodes obtained the method of casting it, he could not learn it for a while, and could only wait for his wisdom level to further increase, and then learn it again.
Since he could not master this fifth-order magic himself, after learning the other spells in the magic book, Rhodes gave it to Rowling and asked her to learn the magic recorded in the book.
At this time, Rowling was also facing the dilemma of not having enough wisdom skills. Due to her own rank, even with the bonus of hero specialty, Rowling's wisdom skill level still did not reach the grandmaster level, and she could not immediately master this powerful fifth-order magic.
Unlike Rod, even if she couldn't quickly grasp this powerful magic, Rowling still carefully flipped through Norson's magic book, completely reading Norson's original record of meteor showers, trying to master this spell with her own understanding.
Rod did not make any comments on Rowling's choice, but allowed her to do so. In Rhodes' impression, there were very few people who could master a spell without relying on the existence of wisdom techniques, especially this kind of fifth-order magic, which was the apex of almost all mages.
The existence of wisdom has helped mages simplify the study of magic. To evaluate whether a mage apprentice has the potential to become a full-fledged mage, most of them are also based on the level of wisdom they have.
In Rod's opinion, Rowling's behavior may not have any effect, and it will only waste her energy.
However, when Rhodes thought of the anomaly that Rowling had previously cast spells, and the changed magic she had cast, Rod also had some doubts in his heart about whether Rowling could achieve this.
