Chapter 1047: Identity
Relying on the raid of the Titan Corpse Witch King under the Gate of Time and Space, Rhodes was able to break down all the defenses in Hammondale in a very short period of time and successfully capture it.
As agreed with Stephen, Rhodes then tore open a special magic scroll, which did not contain any spells, but would let Stephen know about it.
Soon, under the guidance of the spatial calibration on the crown, the pitch-black door of time and space opened again, and the lich's form walked out of it.
After ending the battle with the other two lichs and returning to the Dead Wasteland, Rod asked the lich who remained in the Death Wasteland to record his spiritual information on the space gem set in the crown as a prerequisite for casting the Space-Time Gate.
At this time, Stephen also quickly came to Hammondale through the spell of the Gate of Time and Space.
Stephen walked through the portal with another lich, dressed in burgundy robes and a hood that covered his head, with no flesh on the surface, only a skeleton-like body.
His previous experience in the Lich's Gathering led Rhodes to recognize the Lich's identity as Hiss, who had used the legendary Lich's arm as a token, and who had teamed up with Stephen to launch an attack on the border of Erathia from Vilnin.
After stepping out of the portal, Stephen raised his hand, and a strong wave of death energy rose into the sky, and quickly spread in all directions, reaching places that Rhodes could not perceive.
As the spell was cast, Stephen seemed to confirm something, and said, "This is Hammondal, which connects to the border of Erathia, Rod, and you can do this much faster than we expected." ”
Seeing Stephen's movements, Rhodes realized that she was using the spell of seeing through the earth, knowing all the terrain around her, and thus determining her position.
"I've kept your Lord Lich waiting." Rhodes replied simply.
As if he had discovered something, Stephen then asked, "Who are these people around you?" ”
There were several other people beside Rod, and Stephen didn't care about the existence of these creatures, but the anomalies in one of them caught Stephen's attention.
Following Stephen's words, Rod raised his hand to one of them and introduced, "She's my sister, Rowling. Rowling, one of the immortal lichs who ruled over Deya, Stephen, and Heath, the other being Heath. ”
Hearing Rod's introduction, Stephen and Heath nodded to Rowling, acknowledging the necromancer's existence.
Especially Stephen's keen perception allows her to perceive more things from Rowling, including Rowling's heroism, as well as some remaining traces of secret methods.
"I can sense the existence of the secret method of energy regeneration from her body, it seems that it was for her that you came to the Death Wasteland to seek a solution to the erosion of death energy from me."
Stephen's indifferent words came out, but Rod did not answer, on the contrary, Rowling took the initiative to look at Rod after learning this.
Rowling recalls that Rhodes once mentioned that the secret method of regeneration she learned was developed by a lich, and that at that time, Rowling only thought that Rhodes had somehow found this secret method in Diya, but she didn't expect Rhodes to seek it from the real lich.
Rowling could imagine the dangers involved in this process, but Rhodes didn't say a word, just put the secret method into his own hands.
Even though she had promised in her heart that she would do everything possible to help Rod, at this moment, Rowling's heart was still full of emotion.
Hearing Stephen's words, Heath looked at Rowling, and there was no change in his expression, so that no one could see any of his thoughts.
Without saying anything more on the matter, Rhodes continued:
"As for the others...... It's up to them to introduce themselves. ”
Beside Rod, in addition to Rowling, there were two other people, one of whom had his hands tied with ropes behind his back, and his mouth was also gagged with rags, even so, he still looked at everything in the field with red eyes, and his appearance was extremely young, while the other person had no restraints on his body, and he seemed more calm.
The two people in front of him were important people that Rhodes found when he led the ghost dragon to chase the griffons trying to flee from the city, so he spared them and brought them to the lich.
At Rod's motion, the man who was not restrained said respectfully, "My name is Kyrie Sveen, and I am the president of the Freelance Chamber of Commerce and the regional chapter in Werning, and I salute all of you powerful creatures. Intelligence, weapons, gold, whatever you need, I'm willing to provide it within my ability. ”
For the immortal lich, whether it is gold or other things, they will naturally not be eyed, and what really deserves the lich's attention is still important information that can help in the battle.
Through its own accumulation, the lich may know better than any other creature about the secrets in Erathia, but as far as some current events are concerned, the information that the lich has is still flawed.
Because of this, after learning of Carey's identity, Rhodes realized the value of the information he had and put it in the hands of the Lich.
Carey was also aware of his situation, did not resist, and showed great respect, compared to the other person, it was much more difficult to do.
No sooner had Rod removed the rag that had been stuffed into the mouth of another than he heard a curse.
"Damn necromancers, you are like worms in a stinking gutter, flies that fly over when you see a corpse, wantonly destroying the beauty of people, and there is no creature more disgusting and disgusting than you......"
This person's emotions were extremely excited, and his body couldn't help but tremble as he spoke, but before he finished speaking, Rod swept it with one hand.
The powerful impact instantly hit this person's face, and Rod's strength attribute, which was not weaker than that of melee creatures of the same level, was exerted to the extreme at this moment, and it was almost fainted in an instant, and his head was completely empty for a while.
Carey, who was still on the side, saw this scene and took the initiative to explain:
"He is a knight of Mark Kendall, the son of General Mogan Kendall, who came to Hammondale during the War of the Virtues, and although he has no official title, he is still one of the most high-ranking men in the city."
Carey's words also made the lich in the field understand the identity of this person, and Rod chose to leave Mark's life because he valued this.
With this identity, the Lich can use him to hold Erathia's important generals hostage, and can also directly transform his undead and allow him to return to Erathia to pass on important information.
Rod believes that the Lich will be able to handle these matters even without his own reminder, depending on what the Lich is willing to use.
After handing the two men over to the Lich, Rhodes took care of everything in the city.
After passing through the time and space gates, after arriving at Hammondal, the two lichs opened multiple time and space gates one after another, and a large number of undead creatures emerged from them, almost filling the vacated city in this extremely short time.
This scene, falling in Carey's eyes, naturally shocked his heart, and he realized that something important was likely to happen inside the necromancer, and even the lich personally led the undead creature to appear this time.
Seeing that everything in the city was carried out under the arrangement of the two lichs, Rhodes immediately took Rowling and the other undead creatures and prepared to return to Ao City.
