Chapter 596: Observation One
After the battle with Northam, Rod also made his own decision thanks to a lot of important information.
Unlike his previous plans, Rhodes did not intend to remain in Bracada and participate in the campaign of the first expansion, instead choosing to return to Verning.
After obtaining the Forbidden Orb fragment, Rhodes also recalled some special situations on the battlefield based on the item in his hand. In Rod's memory, it wouldn't be long before the Forbidden Demon Barrier would regularly appear on the battlefield, completely suppressing the mages of Bracada.
For Rod, this was a great opportunity to gain a lot of experience points through this battle, but due to his previous moves, Rod had to worry about the threat from the mage in his heart.
As the news of the surviving high-level mages spreads, Rhodes' existence will inevitably be known to more high-level mages. Once these high-level mages attack Rhodes, it will be difficult for Rhodes to respond.
Rhodes knew that although the Forbidden Ball Fragment in his hand could be used again to raise a powerful forbidden barrier, after using it, he would lose all the hole cards against the high-level mage.
In this case, staying in Bracada again, although there is a chance to take advantage of the war and gain a lot of experience points, the crisis he will face may be far beyond Rhodes's imagination.
Without the suppression of the forbidden barrier, the damage that those high-level mages can do will be far beyond the imagination of all living beings, and Rhodes felt this once again from the spells cast by Northam.
In addition, from the news obtained from the scroll carried by Norson, Rhodes has clearly learned that there are some true legendary mages who are interested in the magic talisman he has obtained.
At this time, if Rhodes continued to stay in Bracada, he might encounter these powerful legendary mages.
In order to avoid these threats, Rhodes made the choice of returning to Verning, where the centaur leader was, and then returning to Bracada when his influence in Bracada waned and the battle entered its final phase.
After the battle of the Ice Blue Spell Academy, Rhodes has gained a lot, in addition to the increase in experience points, the treasures obtained from those mages, as well as their magic books, are also extremely valuable. If it weren't for the outbreak of this war, Rhodes would not have been able to obtain these things.
The time he waited in Vilning was enough for Rhodes to digest the things he had gained and turn them into his true strength.
In addition, Rod also realized that what currently limits his strength improvement is his own control spirit attributes.
The lack of control of mental attributes made it impossible for Rhodes to control more undead creatures, and could only rely on the existence of the Death Knight and the Mother of Revenants to control other undead creatures.
Although the Mother of Souls can control other undead creatures and give them experience points to Rhodes, it has certain limitations.
Unlike the spirit sigils cast by necromancers, the Mother of the Undead does not have a strong grip on undead creatures, and with the intervention of a powerful necromancer, the undead creatures are able to break free from the restrictions of the Mother of the Necromancer.
Because of this understanding, for the control of important undead creatures, Rhodes did not dare to hand it over to the Mother of Revenants, so as not to make mistakes, so he could only think of other ways.
The lack of control spirit, in addition to making it impossible for Rhodes to control the more powerful undead creatures, also affected Rhodes' ability to cast spells.
Most of Rod's mental attributes are used to control undead creatures, so he can't bring enough damage bonuses to spells. Perhaps the most special Titan Arrow will not be affected by this, but all the other spells can do far less effective than before.
Deeply aware of this, Rod chose to return to Werning, also to take advantage of this opportunity to improve his control spirit attributes.
Relying on the existence of the ghost dragon, in just a few days, Rhodes crossed an extremely long distance and returned to this disputed place.
As the dragon flew, Rhodes noticed that the outer part of Bracada had been completely overrun by creatures of other races by observing the scene below from time to time.
In addition to the savage creatures from Krulrod, Rhodes also saw an army of xenomorph creatures, whether they were lizardmen or werewolves, all appeared on the battlefield. Led by the Beast Tamer, these xenomorphs display great destructive power.
Before Tanan's appearance, Bracada's enslavement of the surrounding area had not stopped.
Due to the same race and the relationship between them, the mages are tolerant enough for Erathia, who also belongs to the human forces, and maintain relatively equal communication, but they do not have any mercy for other xenomorph creatures.
Whether it is the barbarians of Krurod or other xenomorphic creatures, they are all objects of enslavement by mages, even if these creatures have long been banished to remote parts of the continent, they still have to accept the rule of mages.
With Bracada at a disadvantage, these xenomorph creatures also rebelled, and together with the army of savage creatures, they launched an attack on the mage realm.
Rhodes, who was above the sky, saw this scene in his eyes, and some thoughts also appeared in his heart.
Rhodes knew that, according to what he had observed, the first expansion was already in the middle of the day, during which the mages would be completely suppressed, and even the most powerful high-level mages would have to avoid the power of the forbidden orb during this phase.
At the same time, a large number of golems appeared on the battlefield to fight the barbarian army. Along with these golem puppets, there is also the figure of the necromancer.
This stage is also the stage where the traces of the necromancer's existence are most obvious. Having yet to find a way to deal with the forbidden orb, the mages had to resort to a variety of other forces in an attempt to hold back the attacking creatures.
In Rhodes' original expectation, this was the best time for him to gain experience points.
Due to the extreme chaos in the entire territory of Bracada, even in the process, Rhodes showed a strength far beyond the average necromancer, and would not be attacked by other mages, and these mages would even be glad for Rhodes' strength.
It's just that these abnormal situations undoubtedly disrupted Rhodes' original plan. In this case, for Rhodes, returning to the territory of Vilning may be a better choice.
