Out of reach of human sight within the barrier, the bodies of creatures that had fallen under the clouds of death were rapidly changing.

Most of the flesh and blood that had been eroded faded from their bones, and the originally dim eyes burst into scarlet light, and as the body stood up again, a large number of corpse witch kings were born.

The Witch Kings, who existed in the same cloud of death, were not affected by the energy of death, and they focused their attention on the white barrier not far away.

As if given some kind of instruction, at the same time, the Corpse Witch King raised their hands together and cast a cloud of death towards the location of the white barrier.

After superimposing, the cloud of death became more and more powerful, and instantly suppressed the white barrier inward, and the sharp reduction of the barrier range immediately terrified all the creatures in it, and the fear of death filled their hearts, and for a while, the screams, cries and wails in the barrier came and went.

At this moment, one of the priests in the barrier, his whole body suddenly trembled, accompanied by a hideous expression of pain, and he was relying on his own strength to stabilize the barrier that was gradually compressing.

Through his subordinate corpse witch king, he sensed the appearance of this scene, and Rod also roughly guessed how this priest achieved this.

In Rhodes's impression, the priests and monks of Erathia have a variety of secret methods related to spirituality, such as permanent loss of spiritual attributes, in exchange for a large amount of mana, or in exchange for a huge increase in the effect of spells, all within the range of priests' capabilities, which is also the difference between them and orthodox mages.

In his previous life, Rhodes had been a little puzzled that such a powerful secret method was not owned by the mages of Bracada, but appeared on priests and monks.

It wasn't until later, after his own investigation, that Rhodes realized that in Bracada, all of these types of secret methods were classified as witchcraft, and orthodox mages were not allowed to master them at all.

Once a mage is proven to have mastered this secret technique, members of the Magic Guild will forcibly banish him to other areas other than Bracada, with even more severe punishments.

Because of this, even in the games of his previous life, Rhodes rarely heard of a mage who mastered such secret methods.

At this time, it appeared in front of Rod's eyes, and what the priest used to resist the erosion of the cloud of death was such a secret method that belonged to the priest.

Relying on the reckless loss of spiritual power, any priest who casts the secret method will be able to hold out in front of a powerful enemy for a long time, and even defeat an enemy of a higher rank than him.

Although after the battle, the priest's spirit will be in a state of severe weakness due to the side effects of casting the secret spell, and he will not be able to recover for a long time, but this choice is obviously more worthwhile than dying in battle.

Inside the barrier, there were several members dressed as monks, who performed the same secret method, and for a while, the barrier, which was originally suppressed and contracted, and could be broken through at any time, suddenly stabilized, and expelled a lot of death energy around it.

For ordinary corpse witches, releasing the cloud of death is their only ability, and it is not limited by mana, just like elemental creatures cast spells, and the same is true for corpse witches.

In this case, these monks may be able to resist the erosion of the cloud of death by consuming mana and sacrificing spiritual attributes, but this is certainly not a long-term solution, there will always be a time when everything will be consumed, on the contrary, the corpse witch king does not need to worry about this.

If it continues to be consumed like this, the final result will definitely be beneficial to Rhodes, but at this time, Rhodes didn't want to be dragged down by this group of monks, so he raised his hand and condensed a bolt of lightning.

The lightning infused with a lot of Rhodes' mana shot down from the sky, cutting a bright path through the dark cloud of death, and finally striking the white barrier.

The lightning bolt instantly destroyed the original balance of the barrier, completely shattering the barrier.

Attacked by this lightning bolt, all the monks and priests who guided the existence of the barrier only felt a strong shock in their minds, as if they had been hit by a heavy hammer.

The white barrier released by the monks may be extremely resistant to the erosion of the clouds of death, but it is powerless when faced with other kinds of spells.

Without the shield of the barrier, the cloud of death spread rapidly, engulfing all the original creatures in the barrier in an instant.

In the air, Rhodes, who was on the ghost dragon's body, saw this scene and felt more satisfied in his heart.

Just when Rhodes was about to use the flying ghost dragon to continue to disintegrate the possible resistance in the city, he suddenly found some abnormalities in his perception.

The abnormality in the perception of bloodliness is an existence that Rhodes has to pay attention to, and following the call in his perception, Rhodes makes the ghost dragon climb up rapidly.

Soon, the ghost dragon rose to the right shoulder of the Titan Witch King, and Rhodes also saw Rowling standing on top of the Titan Corpse Witch King's blade.

Originally, out of some concern, Rhodes did not plan to let Rowling follow, but planned to lead the Titan Corpse Witch King alone to capture this area, and wait for everything to be completed before letting Rowling come here.

Relying on the efficacy of the artifact, even if there is no spiritual imprint, Rhodes can control the Titan Corpse Witch King at will, and the only regret is probably that he can't gain any experience points in the process.

What Rhodes is worried about is naturally not that Rowling is not strong enough to deal with the enemies in front of him, but that he is worried about what impact the scene in this operation will have on Rowling.

In Rod's opinion, although Rowling has little resistance to necromancy, it may be extremely difficult for her to truly transform a large number of undead creatures by killing like a necromancer.

Out of understanding Rowling, Rod realized that although she had already acquiesced to this move in her heart, it was not easy to get her to do these things herself.

In the past, Rowling had also cast spells on many powerful beings, but she had never shot at ordinary creatures, and it was because of this that Rod did not plan to let Rowling follow.

With the spatial calibration, before coming to Hammondale, Rhodes also told Rowling that after opening the door of time and space, she only had to let the Titan Corpse Witch King enter, and she didn't have to enter herself, waiting for herself to convey other news through blood perception, Rowling also directly agreed, but this happened.

In order to deal with the creatures in the city, Rhodes did not pay attention to this at the first time, and it was not until this time, feeling the abnormality in the blood perception, that Rhodes discovered Rowling's existence.
