Chapter 131: Deadwood Guardian I
In the necromancer's camp, Rhodes had completed the assignment and was sitting in the tent waiting.
In the past two days, the sense of crisis in Rhodes' heart has become stronger and stronger, if it weren't for the position of the Crow Messenger, Rhodes would probably have left this camp long ago and would not stay here for a long time.
Although so far, Rhodes has not found anything unusual, this feeling in his heart is undoubtedly a reminder to Rhodes that it is not safe here.
If there's any good news, it's that the system's slowly growing experience points have started to increase again, much faster than in previous days.
Rhodes knew that it was likely that the centaur leader had already fought against the necromancer he had sent.
At this time, Rod, who was observing the experience value, suddenly heard a noisy noise outside the camp tent, and even the ground under his feet trembled, in addition, Rod's palpitations became more and more intense.
Rhodes quickly left the tent, wanting to know what was going on around the camp.
Rod saw that not far from the camp, several deadwood guards appeared. A lot of Eri creatures are attacking with the Deadwood Guards.
In Rod's line of sight, the Deadwood Guards were still some distance away from the camp, and it would take some time to get to the area around the camp.
Deadwood Guards are large and move slowly, but this slowness is relative to the pace of walking. For the Deadwood Guards, who are generally about five or six meters in size, even if they walk slowly, the amplitude of each step is huge, and the overall speed is about the same as the speed of the surrounding creatures moving forward at full speed.
At this time, in the badge on Rod's body, the task of defending the camp was passed to Rod.
After receiving the news, Rhodes quickly looked at the necromancers around him and found that they were also checking with each other. Rhodes realizes that all the necromancers in the camp are currently on this mission.
Judging from the information released by the mission in the past few days, Rod compared it and found that compared with the original task, the rewards of this task are much richer than before.
It was only a few minutes from the time Rhodes saw the Deadwood Guardian appear, until the Deadwood Guardian came to the front of the camp and swept away the outermost undead creatures.
Except for the necromancers stationed here, there were no defenses in the entire camp, so for a while, the movement of the Deadwood Guardian was completely unstoppable, and they directly broke into the camp and began to kill a large number of surrounding undead creatures.
Rhodes noticed that due to the attack of the Deadwood Guards, the necromancers inside the camp had all dispersed and were ready for battle. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Rhodes began to observe the strength of these necromancers.
In this case, even a necromancer who has the strength to stop these Deadwood Guardians will be reluctant to fight the Deadwood Warrior because they don't want to suffer the loss of the undead creatures.
The Deadwood Guardian kills undead creatures one after another, and even ordinary necromancers can't escape the Deadwood Guard's attacks. With the rest of the Eri creatures blocked by the undead creatures, this group of deadwood guards alone disrupted the defenses inside the camp.
At this time, in Rhodes' sight, a lot of resentful spirits appeared, fighting the Deadwood Guards. At the same time, clouds of ghostly death shot towards the Deadwood Guards.
The cloud of death struck the Deadwood Guard, and in an instant, it emitted a sizzling sound. The Deadwood Guardian swung his arm vigorously to disperse the clouds of death around him.
When the cloud of death that hung over the Deadwood Guardian's body cleared, most of the Deadwood Guard's body was completely corroded, and it seemed that it would take only a few attacks to cut it off.
The basic attributes of the Deadwood Guardian are extremely powerful, and if you just look at the basic attributes, it is even several times that of a warrior of the same level. However, the Deadwood Guardian also has its own weakness, which is that it has little resistance to various spells. In addition, the Deadwood Guardian is incapable of complex thinking and can only follow simple orders.
Seeing these death clouds, Rhodes knew that it was the senior mage who managed the camp in the rear who had made a move.
At this time, in front of these deadwood guards, all that appeared were such clouds of death. The Cloud of Death covers a wide area, and all Deadwood Guardians are affected by the Cloud of Death. When the clouds of death clear, they will then face the onslaught of the wraiths.
Wraiths already have the ability to fly, but even in this case, Wraith is unable to kill the Deadwood Guard. In the face of the Deadwood Guard's attack, the Wraith can only dodge.
The intelligence of the Deadwood Guardian is extremely low, and after being attracted by the resentful spirit, he vigorously attacks the wraith, not knowing how to ignore the wraith and attack the surrounding undead creatures.
Rhodes realized that the senior necromancers in the rear also saw the enemy's problem and did not intend to waste more mana on these Deadwood Guards.
In terms of numbers, the Wraiths did not surpass the Deadwood Guardians by much, on the contrary, their strength seemed to be much worse.
For senior necromancers, resentful souls are not so easy to obtain, a grievance soul corresponds to an official necromancer who died in pain, even if it is a senior necromancer who manages the camp, there is no way to attack the rest of the necromancers in the camp without a reason, and can only focus on the necromancers of other academies.
This is why, after seeing Rhodes kill the original Crow Courier, the senior necromancer did not punish Rhodes, but instead promoted Rhodes to the new Crow Courier, in fact, he was also encouraging this behavior in disguise.
At this time, the rest of the necromancers on the battlefield did not intend to attack these deadwood guards, and even if they were official necromancers, they only focused on killing the surrounding Eri creatures.
As a result, the task of dealing with the Deadwood Guardians fell entirely to the veteran necromancer in charge of the camp.
Rhodes noticed that only one wraith was needed to contain a Deadwood Guardian well, but due to the lack of a number of Wraiths, only a few Yin Spirits existed next to one of the Deadwood Guards.
Since the Yin Spirits can only float and cannot fly at will like resentful spirits, the Deadwood Guardian can easily kill the Yin Spirits as long as they keep waving their arms and relying on their immense strength.
Although affected by the Cloud of Death, the strength of these Deadwood Guards did not decrease much, and for a while, the Yin Spirits were completely unable to stop this Deadwood Guard, but instead suffered a lot of losses in their own numbers.
At this time, Rod saw this situation and quickly checked his system log to confirm the amount of experience points.
After some consideration, Rhodes took the weapon out of the spatial ring and, along with the vampire, rushed in the direction of the Deadwood Guard.
