Chapter 1001: Phoenix

What made Rhodes very concerned was that Stephen mentioned the name Phoenix Wilma in his words.

Rhodes remembers that in the Shadow of Death campaign in his previous life, Phoenix Wilma, a necromancer, played an extremely important role, constantly refreshing the player's understanding of him.

Rod recalls that at the beginning of the second expansion pack in his previous life, Phoenix appeared in front of all players as the leader of the battle, and many players even thought that Phoenix was the owner of the artifact.

It wasn't until midway through the second expansion, when the heroes who had been tricked by Sandru into collecting artifact parts for him joined forces to bring Sandru's crimes to light, that players realized that there was someone else in Dia's possession of the artifact.

Many players already doubted how Phoenix, who was far inferior to the Lich and did not have the status of a hero, could control the artifact, and convinced the lich that his strength was completely unworthy of the powerful effect of the artifact.

The information about Sandru just confirmed the player's suspicion, in the eyes of the player at that time, Phoenix was just a puppet supported by many lichs, used to divert the main attention of the enemy, and it was not even worth spending a lot of effort to assassinate, even if Phoenix was eliminated, it would not change anything, and it was the real lich in the rear who really controlled everything.

It wasn't until later in the second expansion, when Phoenix was crowned King of Deya with the approval of many lichs, that the player realized that there was something else in this seemingly average necromancer.

By the end of the second expansion, the Shadow of Death campaign was ultimately lost, and even Sandru had fallen in the battle, and the whereabouts of the artifact on his body were unknown, and Phoenix was still his King of Deya.

Phoenix can be said to be the biggest winner on Deya's side in the second expansion, in this battle where even an immortal lich will end his life, the previously unknown Phoenix was finally crowned King Deya and became the first person in the necromancer kingdom.

In his previous life, during the coronation of Phoenix as king, Rhodes never heard of the existence of the royal family of Deya, and it seemed that everything was carried out under the will of the lich, so it was no wonder that Rhodes was puzzled by what Stephen said and couldn't help but ask Stephen carefully.

Regardless of the truth or falsity of this information, Stephen's actions have already shown Rhodes her attitude, and without knowing the attitudes of the other lichs, as the owner of the Death Wasteland, Stephen's kindness is undoubtedly extremely crucial, Rod said:

"I know this information. Perhaps in the later battles, this information can be more useful. ”

To this, Stephen only responded lightly: "I hope you can bring out the true power of the artifact." ”

While Rod was talking to Stephen, his arrival also attracted the attention of many creatures in the field.

The ghost dragon following behind Rhodes was undoubtedly an extremely conspicuous existence, and the rich death energy emanating from his body could be felt by all the creatures in the field. Combined with the information conveyed by Stephen when he summoned many lichs before, Rod's identity was also speculated by the creatures in the field.

Feeling the gaze of his body in the dark, Rod didn't wait any longer, and after finishing his conversation with Stephen, he stepped forward and walked directly towards the center of the light.

Noticing Rod's move, North could only follow in the rear, in this special environment, perceiving the many incomparably powerful auras around him, North didn't know where to go except to follow Rhodes in the rear.

Soon, Rod stopped moving forward, and North, who was following behind, saw this and quickly stood still.

The faint sense of foreboding in his heart made North dare not explore the surrounding environment at will in the process of following, but blindly lowered his head and walked forward, and only after he stopped, he dared to look around.

As he looked around, North noticed that around him and Rhodes were the arms that were larger than he had seen before, and the candlesticks that were stuck upside down on the ground, beyond these candlesticks on the ground, and looking around, the range of sight was extremely limited.

The pale firelight did not extend to the periphery, and the dark shadows covered it, cutting off the spread of light, as if something existed in the darkness, swallowing the rays that came out.

From a distance, North could see many isolated pale sparks from the darkness around him, and the light of the Mars did not illuminate the pitch black environment, but loomed in the darkness.

North could perceive that the incomparably powerful aura was in the darkness that the light could not reach, bringing him an inexplicable sense of fear, these extremely powerful creatures, at some point, completely surrounded themselves and Rod, to be precise, it was Rod who took the initiative to choose to come to this encirclement.

At this moment, North couldn't help but think back to everything in Ao City, compared to the time when he only had to study potions in the ashram, the strong stimulation he felt at this time made North truly aware of the danger, but for his choice, North did not regret it.

Rhodes was also aware of the powerful creatures that existed around him, and he knew that they were the lichs who had come here, and the undead creatures under their control.

Rod noticed that when he came to the center of the bright field, the aura of the lich around him changed very obviously, some became hurried, just waiting for Rhodes in the field to show a flaw, he waited for the opportunity to snatch the artifact that belonged to the necromancer, some were extremely hostile, and could attack Rhodes at any time, and some were always extremely peaceful, and they were not affected by Rhodes at all.

It wasn't until he really stood in the center that in Rhodes's perception, because of the presence of those lichs, the strong threat that came from them dissipated. At this time, Rhodes couldn't feel any fear in his heart.

The existence of god-level spiritualism not only greatly enhanced Rod's perception of death energy, but also improved Rod's resistance to undead spells.

Even at the apex of Dia, these immortal lichs, the clouds of death they unleashed, still couldn't do any damage to Rhodes, and the only thing Rhodes had to worry about was the regular spells cast by these lichs.

Due to the changes brought about by the Endless Night Ritual, any spell cast by the Lich will be altered by death energy, and in terms of true spell casting ability, it cannot be compared to the orthodox legendary mage.

With the artifact in his hand, Rhodes was able to defeat a true legendary mage, and the only thing he had to worry about was for the lichs to band together and put pressure on him.

For this reason, in the face of Stephen's kindness, Rhodes chose to accept it, hoping to unite with the lich.

After coming to the field, Rhodes didn't say anything, just cast his own spiritualism, and released the death energy existing in his body towards the death wasteland.

The energy of death swept by, and an inexplicable change began to arise in the Death Wasteland.

The death energy released by Rhodes immediately attracted the attention of those lichs outside the field.

Even lich can't possess such pure death energy, and in their perception, this level of death energy has no impurities in it, even beyond pure magical elements.

The appearance of death energy undoubtedly confirmed to these lichs that Stephen said that Rhodes was carrying a necromancer artifact. However, before the lich could make any moves, an accident happened next to them.

At their feet, the dry bones that could be found everywhere in the Death Wasteland began to tremble violently.

Under the gaze of these lichs, the unique death energy spread wantonly, and the original dry bones on the ground began to coalesce, and the irregular bones were forcibly spliced together, forming the bodies of undead creatures, which were ignited along with the soul fire, and finally formed in the eyes of these lichs, it was a sixth-order corpse witch king.

A large number of corpse witch kings lifted the broken bones buried in their bodies and got up from under the ground, and for a while, the entire Death Desolation seemed to have awakened.

Feeling the changes in the Death Wasteland again, Stephen couldn't help but look at Rhodes in addition to feeling the power of the artifact, this unique power attracted her, and if Rhodes could really launch the battle he promised, Stephen wouldn't mind joining it.

The candlesticks used to keep the light around them had already been knocked over during the awakening of the Corpse Witch King, and the light in the field dimmed suddenly, making it difficult to see the surroundings.

For a lich with extremely strong perception, it made no difference whether there was light around or not, but in order for Rod to show it better, Stephen raised his hand, and the next moment, a light came down from the sky.

The darkness that shrouded the Death Wasteland did not dissipate, and the light in the sky was a few Yin spirits ignited by pale flames, and with the blessing of high-level spells, the light dispelled the darkness below and illuminated the entire area.

Aside from Stephen, the other lichs who noticed the appearance of the Corpse Witch King could not maintain their previous calm, and this transformation of previous perceptions was still difficult to understand even after hearing Stephen mention it.

"It's ...... Is thaumaturgy effective? ”

The one who asked this question was a necromancer shrouded in black robes, and the only necromancer was extremely conspicuous under the shroud of a group of powerful creatures.

The necromancer's hands stacked in front of his abdomen, wearing heavy leather gloves, just the exposed face was full of signs of ulceration, faintly dripping with dark liquid, and the left eye socket was empty, and the erosion of death energy was extremely obvious on his body.

"Soul Gathering thaumaturgy, which can resurrect undead creatures killed in battle, but cannot be effective against decaying undead creatures, this place is about to become a cursed land, mixed with the bones of many creatures, and Soul Gathering thaumaturgy cannot put together different individual undead creatures."

Perhaps it was the same confusion in his mind that a true lich answered the necromancer's words.

If Rhodes could have noticed the appearance of this lich, he would have been very familiar with him, once in the magic guild of the City of Sorrow, Rhodes had a relationship with this lich, and its identity was the former hero Modo, who had not yet become a real lich.

"This transformation method is more like the effect of spiritualism, and it is the top spiritualism." As he spoke, Mordo seemed to notice something and asked, "Elsa, what do you think?" ”

The object of Modo's inquiry, that is, Aisha in his mouth, is also a lich, and in his years of research on necromancy, he has focused on the relevant content of spiritualism, believing that spiritualism is the origin of all necromancy, and it is the most orthodox necromancy.

After being promoted to the Lich, Modo took the initiative to show favor to Aisha and asked her questions about epic spiritualism, which were answered in detail, and in Modo's opinion, Aisha's spiritualism level was very likely to reach the top legendary level.

Legendary-level spiritualism is an important condition for the promotion of lichs to legendary creatures, and there are not many lichs in the entire Diya who have this level of spiritualism.

In addition to the true legendary lich, the only one who can have legendary spiritualism is Aisha as far as Modo knows.

From the transformed corpse witch king, Mo Duo faintly sensed a kind of pressure, and he who had been dealing with corpse witches for many years understood the power of this creature, once the number was stacked, the destructive power caused could be drastically increased. The transformation process of these corpse witch kings made Modo extremely puzzled.

In Modo's opinion, with the existence of legendary spiritualism, coupled with the long-term study of spiritualism, Aisha must have his own understanding of this unique transformation method in front of him, maybe this is the effect of legendary spiritualism.

It's just that at this time, Aisha seems to have discovered something terrifying, and her face is full of disbelief, which is extremely unusual for a lich who has existed for countless years. On the side, Modo, who found the changes in Aisha's body, couldn't help but be cautious.

"This is not the ability of legendary spiritualism."

Elsa's voice sounded in his ears, and Modo was stunned.

"This is a god-level spiritualism."

Hearing Elsa's words, Modo only felt that his body was trembling faintly, a feeling that Modo had not felt since he was promoted to a lich.

The message contained in the words was so shocking that beside them, another lich who had never spoken, began to change his expression.

Noticing the change in the mood of these lichs, the only necromancer beside them frowned, glanced at Rhodes in the field, and whispered:

"He's just a senior necromancer, he hasn't even touched the threshold of the lich, he doesn't have the qualifications to hold the Endless Night Ritual, and the reason why he can master god-level spiritualism, I believe that all lich lords know better than me."

"It seems that Master Stephen is right, she summoned us here for the purpose of the necromancer's artifact, and it has been obtained by this person."
