At this time, in the sky far away from the south of the tower, the ghost dragon had already begun to fly again.

When the hero Thunderbird finished condensing the chain lightning, but failed to have any effect, it fell into an extremely weak state, as if condensing those extremely powerful chain lightning had exhausted all the energy of the hero Thunderbird.

Under the surprise attack of the ghost dragon and the spell cast by Rhodes in time, the hero Thunderbird did not last long and was killed by Rhodes.

The strong counterattack of the hero Thunderbird before his death still caused some trouble to Rod, and even caused some damage to the ghost dragon, but under Rod's control, these counterattacks of the hero Thunderbird still failed to play a big role and failed to change its final solution.

Rhodes could clearly perceive that, compared to the other abilities possessed by the hero Thunderbird, what it was best at, and at the same time the most powerful, was the ability to condense chain lightning.

When the chain lightning can't work, the strength of the hero Thunderbird itself is not difficult to deal with in Rhode's opinion, just relying on the cooperation between himself and the ghost dragon, the hero Thunderbird can't resist.

After this battle with the hero Thunderbird, Rhodes has gained a lot of improvements. When the battle ended with the death of the hero Thunderbird, Rod, who had been safe, counted the gains of this battle on the ghost dragon.

Due to the high rank of the hero Thunderbird itself, reaching the level of the sixth order, with the experience value corresponding to the sixth-order creatures, plus the existence of the hero template, the experience value corresponding to the hero Thunderbird will be multiplied many times on this basis.

When the battle was over, while checking the system logs, Rhodes noticed that the hero Thunderbird had given him a total of 36,000 XP.

Even the experience points provided by the sixth-order hero creatures were not even enough for Rhodes, who was currently in the fourth order, to fully upgrade by one level, which couldn't help but make Rhodes sigh a little.

The experience of playing in his previous life made Rhodes understand that once the player's rank is slightly higher, it is extremely difficult to continue to level up. Later in the game, the experience required to level up can only be accumulated by the player.

At the lower level, the player's level increase is extremely fast, and it basically does not take long to rise from the first order to the second order, and when Rhodes came to this world, it only took half a day to complete the promotion of the first to second order. However, for higher-tier players, the speed of leveling up is bound to slow down.

Past experience has allowed Rod to deeply understand this, which is why Rod chose to intervene in the main plot of the first expansion. Only in such a large-scale war can Rhodes quickly accumulate enough experience to level up.

After this battle with the hero Thunderbird, Rhodes has other gains in addition to the increase in experience points.

For Rod, what can quickly improve his strength is the hero Thunderbird.

At this time, the corpse of the hero Thunderbird was lying quietly in Rhodes's space ring. Due to the large size of the hero Thunderbird, Rod also had to empty the space ring with the largest storage space, so that the corpse of the hero Thunderbird was included in it.

When Rod personally felt the power of the chain lightning condensed by this hero Thunderbird, he naturally had some ideas about the disposal of the corpse of this hero Thunderbird.

In Rhodes's opinion, due to the high rank of this hero Thunderbird, its corpse can naturally produce more uses than the rest of the creatures, and even some low-level heroes.

In addition to simply transforming into a death knight, the corpse of the hero Thunderbird can also be used to create some powerful treasures.

If the effect of using the treasure created by the corpse of this hero Thunderbird is related to the breath magic of the lightning type, then this treasure will also enjoy the blessing of the hero specialty possessed by the hero Thunderbird, and the effect will far exceed the rest of the same kind of treasures.

The corpses of heroes have a very unique role in many ways, and it is not just necromancers who can use these corpses.

Due to the extremely high rank of this hero Thunderbird, the preciousness of this corpse is naturally several grades higher than that of ordinary hero corpses, and if it can be made into a special treasure, the effect is naturally extremely powerful.

Regarding the initial creation of treasures, among those alchemists who have the ability to make treasures, there is also a theory that treasures are produced incidentally due to the condensation of the hero's will. Each of the original treasures corresponds to an extremely powerful hero.

After the development of alchemy, the production of treasures has long been detached from the hero himself. Those powerful alchemists can refine powerful treasures with ordinary materials.

It's just that among the materials for refining treasures, the remains of heroes are the most precious ones. Adding the remains of heroes to the refining of treasures can greatly improve the treasures.

Although Rhodes was able to refine powerful artifacts using the corpse of the hero Thunderbird, Rhodes did not intend to do so, but still intended to transform it into a death knight.

The ability of the hero Thunderbird to channel chain lightning left an extremely deep impression on Rod.

In Rhodes's opinion, in the original case of fighting with the hero Thunderbird, when the hero Thunderbird completed the guidance of the chain lightning, if it were not for the existence of the guardian shield in his hand, he would not be able to withstand the attack of the chain lightning if he was replaced by any other mage.

The chain lightning condensed by the Hero Thunderbird, in terms of true power, can even transcend the limits of the rank and threaten some seventh-order creatures.

According to Rhodes' prediction, even some extremely powerful seventh-order creatures, if they were not born with the ability to resist magic, like dragon creatures, then they would not be able to withstand the chain lightning condensed by the hero Thunderbird.

In the process of condensing chain lightning, due to the addition of environmental fit bonus, the power of chain lightning can be greatly improved, so that the original single chain lightning becomes multiple.

This, in the process of Rhodes's original response to chain lightning, undoubtedly caused him great trouble, if it wasn't for the Patronus Shield, Rod would not have been able to withstand these chain lightning bolts at all.

However, when Rod transformed this heroic Thunderbird into a Death Knight, the ability of chain lightning to fit into the environment will undoubtedly be a great help for Rhodes, and can help Rhodes deal with some powerful enemies.

The existence of the hero Thunderbird will undoubtedly bring great help to Rod, but before he can transform into a death knight, Rod must meet one condition in order to successfully transform.
