In the center of the battlefield, bats gather and vampires appear.

In the field, the members of the merchant group who are still fighting vampires are less than half of the original ones. The strength of the remaining people is relatively strong among the guards, and most of them are in the second or third order.

The weaker professionals in the merchant group could not survive the vampire's several bats, and they had already been killed by the vampires first.

The remaining professionals still want to rely on the advantage of numbers to slowly eliminate the vampires in front of them.

Except for the core members of the business group, for the rest of the guards, they were gathered together because of interests, and after seeing the power of the vampire in front of them, they were obviously unwilling to go up and fight hard.

Even though the vampire was under siege, it only had some superficial wounds on its body, and the only few deep wounds were all affected by the mage's spells. These wounds have a certain effect on the vampire, but they are not fatal, but only provoke its murderous intent even more.

The only fighters who fought the vampires were the few warriors at the forefront. The warrior constantly raised his shield to strike the vampire, trying to create an opportunity for the rest of the people around him to attack, even if he was injured by the vampire's attack, he still stood in front of him.

At this time, Rhodes, who walked down the watchtower, saw the blue-robed mage riding away. Rhodes realized something and walked quickly to the body of Uther who had fallen to the side.

Coming to Yusher's body, Rhodes checked it and found that the spatial ring that Yusher was wearing on his hand had disappeared at this time.

Rhodes knew that it was the previous blue-robed mage who had discovered Yusher's body, removed the spatial ring, and then fled quickly.

Rhodes didn't understand why the blue-robed mage did this, and felt from the spiritual imprint that the vampire had already suffered some injuries, even without the command of the regiment leader Yusher, the blue-robed mage and the senior professionals around him, if he commanded properly, he might not be able to defeat him.

Rod could only guess that the blue-robed mage wanted to swallow these Revenant Crystals for himself.

Looking at the situation on the battlefield, the guards of the merchant group were fighting vampires, and for a while, no one noticed Rhodes walking out of the watchtower.

The experience of his previous life made Rhodes understand the value of these Revenant Soul Crystals, once he obtained this batch of Revenant Soul Crystals, under the superposition of the number of Revenant Crystals, the death energy that could be provided would change qualitatively.

With the help of these Revenant Crystals, Rhodes will be able to create a large number of undead creatures when the war begins.

Instead of helping the fighting vampires kill the merchants, Rhodes approached a carriage, slashed the ropes off the horses, and then turned on his horse and chased in the direction of the blue-robed mage's escape.

Since the blue-robed mage had been on his horse for a long time, and Rhodes had spent some time examining Yusher's body, at this time, Rhodes couldn't even see the figure of the blue-robed mage in front of him.

Although he had a rudimentary reconnaissance technique, Rhodes could distinguish the direction of the blue-robed mage's escape through small traces, but he could not quickly distinguish the path of the blue-robed mage's escape in the first place, and could only find the exact location by carefully observing and spending a certain amount of time.

Rod opened the Properties panel. After killing Uther, Rhodes gained a lot of experience, and with the merchant guards killed by the vampires, he was already able to increase the level of the character.

"Consumes 300 XP and has 365 XP remaining. Raise your class level to Tier 2 Swordsman Tier 4......"

"Get 1 free attribute point, get 1 skill point......"

In order to ensure that he could accurately follow behind the blue-robed mage and obtain the Revenant Crystal, Rhodes did not care about saving the skill points he had obtained, and chose to use them and chose to learn the intermediate reconnaissance technique.

(Intermediate Scouting: With a lot of training, your Scouting skills have been further improved.) Nothing can be hidden from your scrutiny. You can spot the enemy's movements through subtle traces, or you can sense hidden dangers just by the wind and grass. Detection Range +4, Perception +2)

After learning the intermediate scouting, the subtle traces around him, whether it was the dirt splashed on the grass or the dead branches with slight depressions on the ground, seemed to signal to Rhodes the movement of the blue-robed mage. Originally, it would have taken a while for Rod to distinguish the traces that could be observed, but at this time, it was so obvious.

Rod immediately followed the traces detected and chased his horse in one direction.

From the traces left by the blue-robed mage, Rhodes could even tell how long ago he had passed here.

Rhodes understood that since he had no mana at this time, he might not be able to defeat the blue-robed mage head-on with his own strength alone, so he didn't think about catching up and fighting him directly, but followed through these traces in the rear.

As Rhodes chased towards the forest, the people who were fighting the vampires also noticed the anomaly.

When the blue-robed mage was running away on horseback, he was discovered by a handful of people. Although they realized that something was wrong, these people were still fighting vampires, but they had doubts in their hearts, but they didn't show it.

These members of the merchant group realized that something was wrong when they saw another black-robed enemy go after the blue-robed mage.

Although they don't know what happened, the guards began to be a little timid when fighting the vampires, just fighting around the vampires to avoid the vampires from hurting themselves, and not thinking about how to kill the vampires.

At this time, the vampire's attack was entangled by the warrior in front of him, and a thief on the side was about to take this opportunity to attack, but was discovered by the vampire and chose to take the thief's attack.

As the thief's dagger plunged into the vampire's body, the vampire's claws slashed through the thief's abdomen. Vampires can quickly pull out daggers, but thieves can only fall to the ground.

In the rear, a warrior was about to take the opportunity to slash with a sword, but the vampire did not dodge or dodge, taking advantage of the gap when the warrior made a move, a claw poked out at the warrior's throat, killing the warrior on the spot. The warrior's sword slashed at the vampire, but it had completely lost its strength.

On the battlefield, the control of the blue-robed mage was lost, although the surrounding guards still suppressed the vampire, but as the duration of the weakened magic on the vampire expired, the vampire's original strength was restored, and the surrounding guards still did not dare to step forward desperately, and the vampire began to exert power.

On the side, several more guards tried to take advantage of the opportunity to attack, but before their weapons could hit the vampire, the vampire saw the opportunity and turned into a cloud of black mist in the center of their encirclement.

Taking advantage of the fact that the guards were too close to dodge, the bats pounced on them and began to bite.

With the vampire still having the number of bats, it is obviously extremely difficult to kill the vampire without the mage's powerful skills.

For ordinary second-order professionals, when the attributes and special skills are not strong, the bats transformed into vampire bats are difficult to deal with. Except for a few senior professionals, the rest of them were uncomfortable.

The vampire showed its strength at the peak of the third order, if it wasn't like Rhodes who consumed the number of uses of the bat-transformation skill in advance, and then stepped forward to find a way to attack the vampire's weakness and hit it hard, but wanted to rely on the advantage of numbers alone to consume the vampire, the cooperation of this group of people obviously did not reach this level.

As the number of dead guards grew, and the morale of the remaining guards of the merchant group became more and more demoralized, without the suppression of the mage, and facing the vampire in front of them, they began to understand the horror of this creature.
