Chapter 318: Silver Cliff City
After understanding Rod's purpose, the knight did not resist along the way, and after many days of travel, he led Rhodes to the outside of Silver Cliff City.
Rhodes looked at the scene inside Silver Cliff City, the main body of the city was white, the surrounding buildings were relatively tall, and everything in the city was in order.
Rhodes recalls that the Earl of Elon, whom he is about to meet, has many connections with the forces in Erathia, whether it is the knights who lead Erathia, or the architectural style of the city, which is deeply proven.
When there was still some distance from the city, in order to avoid the leakage of the breath of the undead creatures, Rhodes took the initiative to abandon the undead war horse.
When they came to the city gate, the guards in front of the gate noticed Rhodes and wanted to stop them, but when the guards noticed the appearance of the knight, they dispelled the idea of stopping them, and without even any interrogation, they directly moved out of the way and let Rhodes and his party enter the city.
Noticing this, Rhodes glanced at the knight beside him, but said nothing.
After entering Silver Cliff City, this knight seemed to have some confidence, and swept away the decline that had been suppressed by Rhodes before, although he was still under Rhodes' control, but looking at his appearance, it seemed that he was no longer afraid.
At this time, Rowling also looked at the scenery in the city, but there was no novelty in her eyes, as if she was simply observing.
Under the leadership of this knight, soon, Rhodes and his party came to the outside of the city lord's mansion.
After coming here, the knight finally couldn't help it, although he didn't resist all the way, but the threat of death was always there, and it had always accumulated in the knight's heart.
Looking at Rhodes beside him, the knight took the initiative to say:
"Powerful necromancer, let me go and report it first, otherwise, if you are allowed to enter directly, it may cause some misunderstandings, and even attract people from the magic guild......"
When the knight said this, he couldn't help but relax his vigilance, and Rhodes was able to get his thoughts.
As for entering it first to frame Rod, this knight had no such intention in mind. Since he didn't know the real purpose of Rhodes' arrival, the knight didn't know what to do, so he could only report the situation to Elon and let him decide.
Knowing this, Rhodes nodded at the knight, agreeing to his request.
Seeing that Rhodes agreed, the knight didn't say anything more, and quickly entered the building in front of him.
While waiting, Rod glanced at Rowling's position, and after seeing that she was looking at him, he gave Rowling a few simple instructions.
Soon, in the city lord's mansion in front of him, the original knight reappeared and introduced Rhodes into the building.
When the knight finished reporting, Elon made a decision as soon as possible. Instead of sending someone to report to the Magic Guild, he directly asked the knight to introduce Rhodes into the City Lord's Mansion.
Elon deliberately asked the knight to bring in Rod, rather than simply letting a guard, obviously because he was afraid that Rod's existence would be known to more people.
Due to his experience in his previous life, Rhodes was able to get a general idea of Elon's attitude towards necromancers. If it weren't for Elon, if it was any other city lord, when they heard that a powerful necromancer had appeared in their territory, they would notify the magic guild in the city as soon as possible.
Within Bracada, the guild of magic will not allow any necromancers to exist. Once they hear about the necromancer, they will send powerful Overseers, and even if the necromancer is able to defeat several of them, new Overseers will continue to arrive until the necromancer is killed or banished.
It can be said that as long as the city lord tells the magic guild the news of the existence of the necromancer, he no longer has to worry about the damage that the necromancer can cause, which is also the choice of the vast majority of normal mage lords.
However, among these lords, there will always be some aliens, who are willing to have deep contact with necromancers, and even carry out some secret cooperation.
Whether it is the thirst for knowledge or the fear of death, these mages will make this choice, and even senior mages who are already extremely powerful will not refuse this new knowledge.
After becoming a necromancer, once you complete the Endless Night Ritual and transform yourself into a lich, you are completely free from the limitation of your lifespan. After becoming a lich, as long as they take the initiative to avoid some strong enemies, they can survive forever, and for mages, this is what attracts them the most.
Bracada was at its strongest, when spells were at their peak, and during that time, almost every few days, a new magic appeared.
Due to the control of the Magic Guild, mages at that time were not so hungry for necromancy, and even the mage's heart was really full of the glory of magic, and maybe they were full of contempt for necromancy.
However, after countless years of domination over the surrounding area, even as the progress of magic continued to improve, Bracada had long since decayed. Due to the long-term study of spells, the mage lords everywhere have long forgotten the feelings of ordinary people and are bent on their own interests.
For this reason, even if they unite with some necromancers to do some forbidden research in their own territory, these mage lords can also do it, as long as they are not too blatant and discovered by the personnel of the Magic Guild, there will not be much of a problem.
This is also an important reason why Bracada agreed to join forces with the necromancers.
When Elon offered to let the necromancers take the place of Bracada's army and fend off the barbarian attacks, a large number of mages in Bracada agreed to the matter. Faced with this situation, even the Magic Guild can't change anything.
Of course, it wasn't until the end of the war that the Magic Guild began to make a major effort to clean up its interior, and a large number of mages who had colluded with necromancers were found and banished from Bracada. This act of the Magic Guild even caused turmoil within Bracada.
However, this behavior of the Magic Guild has also achieved sufficient results.
In the war, after truly seeing the power of necromancy, some mages who were originally normal couldn't help but yearn for necromancy.
Combined with Bracada's original situation, according to the changed minds of these mages, it can be said that if the Magic Guild does not take the opportunity to deal with it immediately and expel the mages who are contaminated with necromancy from Bracada, the entire Bracada will quickly move towards Diya.
