Rhodes led the vampires behind him, followed the butler in front of him, and headed towards the mayor's mansion.

As he passed the courtyard in front of the mansion, Rhodes noticed that the path he was walking on both sides of what was supposed to be a lawn was now overgrown with a large number of withered yellow weeds. Among the weeds stand several humanoid statues. Due to the poor texture of the statues, Rhodes was unable to make out their faces.

Continuing along the path, Rhodes noticed the stables on the side, and a short distance behind the stables was the mayor's mansion. The mansion is extremely large and has two floors.

Before arriving at the mansion, the butler pushed the door open and entered with the guards on the side, while Rhodes noticed the inside of the mansion. Looking at the scene inside the mansion, Rhodes did not choose to enter.

"Necromancer from afar, I am the mayor of the town, Kerr, and I welcome you on behalf of the entire town."

At the end of the hall of the mansion, a man dressed in a black robe said loudly.

At this time, on both sides of the corridor of the entire hall, along the carpet spread to the door, stood two rows of heavily armed skeleton warriors facing each other. The skeletal warriors were separated by a slight distance, stretching right in front of the mayor to the doorway.

"Bang, bang, bang."

After the mayor's voice fell, the two rows of skeletal warriors began to hold their weapons in one hand. Hit the shield in the other hand. The action of the blow is uniform and makes a strong sound. After striking three times in a row, the group of skeleton warriors instantly stopped what they were doing and stopped in place.

Even without his introduction, Rhodes also understood that the black-robed man in front of him was the target he wanted to test, the mayor of this town.

The mayor of the town wore a black robe, but did not put the hood on his head. Rod looked over at him and saw his slightly older face, apparently not young.

Seeing the formation of the mayor, Rod did not walk along the carpet for the first time.

Since it took almost a day and a half on the way here, the basic mana regeneration plus the increase brought by the primary mana talisman made it possible for Rhodes to fully recover his mana at this time. And because Rhodes meditates at night, the maximum mana at this time has reached 70 points corresponding to knowledge.

Looking at the two rows of skeleton warriors in front of him, Rhodes was not afraid that in the process of entering, they chose to attack him. Thanks to the spell Ice Ring, even if the Ice Ring doesn't have enough base damage to kill these Skeleton Champions, it can knock them back slightly.

Even so, Rhodes still did not choose to enter the mansion, but developed a jealousy in his heart.

Rhodes noticed a spot behind the mayor, in the mansion. The location was separated by a door at this time, and although nothing unusual was found for the time being, through the intensity of the death energy in the mansion and the strong warning from his perception, Rhodes sensed that something was wrong.

Rhodes knew that the mayor's hole cards were obviously not the skeleton warriors in front of him. Now that the mayor has identified himself as a mage, he still dares to put these skeleton warriors here, obviously not worried about their losses, but can use these skeleton warriors to consume his own mana.

Rhodes looked at the mayor. Engrossed, no matter who releases the magic first, the other side can respond instantly, it's just a matter of priority.

The mayor didn't do anything except say a few words to Rhodes at the beginning, waiting for Rhodes' response in place, obviously not wanting to reveal his information by saying more.

At this time, Rhodes was comparing the strengths of the two sides.

Through perception, Rhodes clearly knew that there was a large amount of death energy gathered in the mansion, and the undead creatures that existed were obviously not only the skeleton warriors he saw in front of him, but also the undead creatures of higher rank.

Rhodes estimated that the mayor's rank should not be able to surpass the blue-robed mage he had dealt with, but due to the characteristics of the necromancer, most of the mayor's strength was on the undead creatures, and relying on the advantage of the number of undead creatures, the comprehensive strength even surpassed the previous blue-robed mage.

According to Rhodes's original experience, in the territory of Diya, the mayor of this kind of town is generally an ordinary apprentice with insufficient potential, who has been eliminated from the Necromancer Academy and has come down to serve as a position.

The necromancer apprentices who really have potential are all staying inside the Necromancer Academy to perform various tasks, and they can get all kinds of resources at the first time, and the information they can obtain is far beyond that of ordinary apprentices.

Apprentices with insufficient potential, if they have enough gold, can apply to come to this town as mayor after learning the basics of necromancy.

Although there is no way to quickly improve the strength in this way, since no one bothered, the apprentice who becomes the mayor of the town can gradually improve his strength by accumulating undead creatures, and because he does not have to fight with other apprentices, he has a lot of free time, and he can release death energy by himself, and the original low-level undead creatures can be slightly improved.

Although you can get a lot of low-level undead creatures in this way, due to the slow ascension speed, the undead creatures accumulated over the years are not faster than attacking other villages a few more times, so it can only be said to be more stable.

Among the undead creatures inside the mansion, including these skeleton warriors in front of him, many of these undead creatures that the mayor can gather are from ordinary townspeople in the town.

If it was a normal time, the mayor would not have killed all the townspeople, but at this time, probably due to the news of the war, the mayor obviously had other ideas for the residents of the town.

Seeing these undead creatures in the hall, as well as the rest of the undead creatures that might exist in the mansion, plus the warning brought by the perception, Rhodes finally made a decision after weighing it in his heart.

Rhodes said slowly to the mayor, "I'm the necromancer Elote, just passing through here, if you want to go to the City of Sorrow, is there any good way for the mayor?" ”

The mayor was obviously extremely cautious, and Rhodes could only judge from what he had seen at this time.

Unable to obtain further information through a simple probing, Rhodes did not want to go directly to the mayor without knowing the situation.

Rhodes knew that if he wanted to fully understand the strength of the mayor, he had to enter this mansion himself.

Once inside the mansion, the surrounding undead creatures can take advantage of the opportunity to attack, and with the need to deal with the hidden undead creatures, Rhodes doesn't know how much chance he has of winning.

Rod didn't give his real name, and because of the possible proximity to the City of Sorrows, and the possible problems with intelligence, Rod chose to use Elliott's name.

Looking at the mayor not far away, Rhodes was waiting for his answer.
