Noticing the lich figure in the distance, as well as the large number of undead creatures around him, Rhodes was also able to clearly realize the gap in strength between himself and his existence.

Rhodes knew that the vast majority of a lich's strength was the undead creatures it had accumulated, and at this time, Rhodes could no longer estimate how many undead creatures existed under the dark canopy.

In Rhodes's opinion, compared to the ghost dragon that existed beside him, the undead creatures controlled by this lich far surpassed him in terms of overall number and strength, and the two were not at the same level at all.

In addition to the undead creatures, according to the lich's own preferences, their spell-casting abilities will also vary greatly, and it is difficult for Rhodes to judge until he sees the lich make a move.

At this time, looking at the figure of the lich that appeared in front of him, Rhodes also discovered an extremely important piece of information.

Through the gesture from his perception, Rhodes realized that the lich who appeared in front of him actually had the identity of a hero.

What exactly it means to be a hero, Rhodes knows very well. Especially for creatures of this type of lich, the extremely powerful learning ability attached to the hero template can be used to the extreme with the blessing of the lich's almost infinite lifespan.

If before that, Rhodes was not sure of the lich's ability to cast spells, then by now, Rhodes had a clear answer in his heart.

Rhodes believed that with the blessing of the Hero Template, the Lich would not be weaker than the high-level mages of the same rank, or even to the point of being weaker than the legendary mages.

For ordinary lichs, their strength is mainly the control of undead creatures, rather than being good at casting spells like high-level mages. However, when you have a hero template, this no longer applies.

As for the fact that this lich has the status of a hero, there is no mention of it in the information provided by Tello before.

When the lich appeared, Rhodes was still able to look directly at its appearance, and Thero on the side had already bowed his head deeply, not daring to show any disrespect to the lich.

For Tello on the side, Rhodes also had some thoughts in his heart.

What made Rhodes a little concerned was whether he had not discovered the lich's heroic identity during his first visit to the Death Wasteland, since there was no hero template for Troll, or whether he had already understood this and just concealed it and did not tell himself this important information.

Previously, when learning about what Tello knew through his peeping eyes, Rhodes didn't notice anything about the hero.

Based on what Rhodes had observed, it was unlikely that Trow would have cast a clairvoyant eye on the lich, based on his behavior, and he probably didn't know it.

The lich's heroic identity was truly beyond Rhode's expectations. What Rhodes didn't expect was that even among creatures like lichs, there would be heroes.

It's just that for the lich that emerged in the darkness, except for the most basic caution, Rhodes didn't show any fear.

No matter how strong this lich is, it is difficult for Rhodes to pose any threat at this time, and Rhodes has enough means to deal with this lich.

As early as in the Ice Blue Spell Academy, the fragments of the forbidden magic ball intercepted by Rhodes had already shown a powerful effect, allowing Rhodes to kill the powerful high-level mage Nuo Than, and obtained extremely rich gains.

At this time, in the face of the lich that appeared, the forbidden orb in Rod's hand could still play a role. Rhodes believed that under the effect of the forbidden demon barrier, even this extremely powerful heroic lich could exert extremely limited strength.

It's just that in Rhodes's opinion at this time, the use of the Forbidden Ball Fragment cannot maximize the benefits of this treasure, especially when the Forbidden Ball Fragment can only be used once last and cannot be used after that, if it is used at this time, he will not gain much.

For Rod, what he needed most at this time was the lich's ability to solve the erosion of death energy, not the extra gain he would get from killing him.

It is precisely because of this that after seeing the appearance of the lich, Rhodes did not immediately cast the effect of the forbidden orb fragment, and if there was no abnormal situation, Rhodes did not plan to use this special item at this time.

Due to the existence of the Forbidden Orb fragments, although Rhodes did not intend to use them, he did not fear this heroic lich too much in his heart.

In Rhodes's opinion, when he has enough strength to be able to kill this lich by various means, the status relationship between himself and this lich is more like an equal existence, rather than being completely suppressed by this lich like Tello.

Even if Rhodes is located in the Death Wasteland, which this lich has been operating for a long time, the overall environment around him, with a large number of undead creatures, can also bring a great sense of oppression to people, but under the effect of the forbidden magic ball fragments with the power of the artifact, these cannot affect him in any way.

On the side, the lich who had been observing Rhodes and his party also noticed the obvious abnormality in Rhodes' body at this time.

In the lich's opinion, this kind of confidence that exists in Rhodes cannot be disguised by ordinary methods. Over the course of countless years, the lich had seen many necromancers entering the Dead Wasteland, and their various reactions, so he could tell Rhodes at a glance.

The lich realized that, apparently, Rhodes had enough strength, or some means he didn't know he knew, to suppress himself in battle, and that was why he was not afraid of his presence.

Because of the perception that exists between heroes, when Rhodes discovers the heroic identity of this lich, the lich also senses this from Rod's body. This discovery, also from the side, shows the strength of Rhodes.

Aware of this information, the lich's original mind about Rhodes, who appeared with Tello, also changed his mind a little.

Although Rhodes could not observe the lich's specific appearance through the barrier of existence, he could also feel the changes in his expression.

Noticing this, Rhodes knew that the lich would soon be up for action.
