Chapter 553: Appearance II
What he needs, and what he is here for, Rod knows exactly what he wants.
Rhodes chose to join this war and came to the Ice Blue Spell Academy at this time, what he wanted to achieve was not to help any specific party win the battle, but to gain as many experience points as possible in the process in order to improve his character level.
Because of this, when Rod felt the red barrier that enveloped the entire battlefield, Rod realized that this might be an excellent opportunity for himself.
From what the ghost dragon had observed before, Rhodes knew that these mages didn't seem to be aware of the existence of this red barrier beforehand, so they didn't take any action to deal with it. At this time, under the effect of this red barrier, in the face of the attack of the cyclops, the only thing these mages can do is to flee this place quickly.
In the face of this special red barrier, the only golem puppet that mages can use to deal with it does not exist much in the Ice Blue Spell Academy, and even if it is a golem that can move, it is only the most ordinary level, far from reaching the rank corresponding to the cyclops.
In this case, Rhodes, who controls the ghost dragon, undoubtedly has a relatively strong power, far surpassing these mages who are in the red barrier.
As for Rhodes himself, due to the existence of the red barrier, his strength has also been weakened, and he is unable to cast any spells, but compared to other mages, Rhodes's situation is undoubtedly much better.
Unlike other mages, after losing their ability to cast spells, their own strength drops dramatically. For Rod, spell-casting ability can only be counted as a part of his strength, and after losing his spell-casting ability, Rhodes still has the ability of a necromancer, as well as a melee strength that far exceeds that of ordinary mages.
Due to the existence of the red barrier, the death energy was also expelled, and Rhodes was unable to use his own spiritualism to transform the dead mages around him into undead creatures, but Rhodes was still able to use the spirit imprint to make the ghost dragon join the battle.
It is these that give Rod enough confidence to carry out his next plan.
Originally, when the battle had just begun, before the hero Cyclops cast the red barrier, in Rhodes' opinion, it was not this group of cyclops who was most likely to win, but the mages in the Ice Blue Spell Academy.
With the memories of his previous life, Rhodes deeply understood how strong a high-level mage could be, if it weren't for the existence of the red barrier, in the face of a large number of high-level mages, these cyclops could be said to have no chance of winning.
Without this red barrier, all Rhodes could have done was to kill some of the Cyclops who survived the battle in order to gain a small amount of experience.
However, when the red barrier appeared, the situation was undoubtedly reversed, and it was no longer the mages in the Ice Blue Spell Academy who had the absolute advantage, but this group of cyclops.
In this case, some thoughts came to Rhodes' mind. This time, the target chosen by Rhodes was no longer the Cyclops who came to attack, but the high-level mages who fled in a hurry.
Through the information transmitted by the ghost dragon, Rhodes also saw the behavior of these high-level mages in his eyes, knowing that these high-level mages were also extremely panicked in the red barrier, and they were rushing to escape towards the rear of the Ice Blue Spell Academy.
After discovering this, Rhodes immediately dispatched the ghost dragon to intercept and kill these fleeing high-level mages, and Rhodes himself also took action, relying on the weapons in his hands to kill these fleeing mages.
When the red barrier appeared, although there were a large number of mages who fled, it could not pose any obstacle to Rhodes with his peeping eye, and Rhodes could easily spot high-level mages mixed in with ordinary mages.
While Sock was still on the city walls, waiting for the Cyclops to attack, Rhodes had completed the interception of these high-level mages.
In this process, Rhodes gained a huge amount of experience points, and any high-level mage who reached the sixth order could provide Rhodes with 6,000 to 10,000 experience points.
Even if in this process, Rhodes also killed some ordinary mages with lower strength, but at this time, Rhodes obviously didn't care about this.
Some high-level mages can rely on the treasures on their bodies to slightly block Rhode's attacks, but they can't get past the ghost dragon behind Rhode, especially when their identities are exposed, they will be attacked by the ghost dragon's madness, and they can only die of hatred in the end.
The mage, who was originally powerful and high, undoubtedly lost all his ability to resist under the effect of the red barrier.
For these high-level mages, because they are extremely confident in their own spell-casting ability, most of the treasures they wear are only used for protection, blocking their own undetectable attacks, and strengthening the spells they cast, and few of them are directly used for attacks.
Because of this, Rod's sudden attack was undoubtedly beyond the expectations of all high-level mages, and in this case, the high-level mages who were able to successfully escape were only undiscovered by Rhodes because of their own good luck and in the chaos.
Looking at the rapidly rising experience points in the system log, Rhodes knew that he had come to the right place.
At this moment, Rod couldn't help but deeply feel the power of the forbidden magic barrier, although he didn't understand how the cyclops created the effect that the forbidden magic ball could achieve, but under the effect of the forbidden demon barrier, it completely blocked the spell casting ability of high-level mages, which allowed Rod to gain a huge amount of experience points.
Rhodes noticed that after killing Reese, he had more than 100,000 experience points after killing a large number of high-level mages.
Judging from the amount, the experience points that Rhodes has at this time are undoubtedly extremely large, and according to the normal way, it takes Rhodes to accumulate for a long time to have such a value of experience points.
However, for the current Rod, these experience points are only enough for Rhodes to raise the level of the character by one level, and there is still a long way to go before he is raised by one level again.
At this time, Rhodes' own rank is only the fourth order, in this case, Rhodes can only gain a lot of experience points by killing high-level mages whose strength is far superior to his own, and it is only enough to increase his level by one level.
