Chapter 1016 Token 1
After following Rhodes to the Death Wasteland, North couldn't calm down for a long time.
The large number of lichs that appeared around him had already shocked North, and he couldn't imagine that the most noble lich among Diya could be found everywhere here, and it was not surprising at all.
Prior to this, in North's cognition, the most powerful necromancer, except for Rowling stationed in Werning, was only Rhodes, and as for the more powerful lich, North had only seen their deeds in various classics, and there was no way to see them with his own eyes.
North had always been curious about the lich's usual state and how they had spent their long lives, and perhaps only by asking the real lich could he figure it out.
Before following Rhodes here, North was undoubtedly thrilled to hear that he was going to Diya to meet the lichs among them, and he realized that this might be the opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time.
However, when North saw the lich with his own eyes, all he could feel in his heart was fear, which was the instinctive emotion of facing a creature whose life level was higher than his own, so that the original doubts were thrown aside by North.
What makes North extremely concerned is the attitude of these lichs towards Rod, because of the existence of the artifact on Rod's body, except for a few lichs who are obviously hostile, the remaining part has the meaning of faintly looking at Rod's horse, which North did not expect before.
Even before this, North had already realized that Rhodes had extremely strong strength, but through the attitudes of these lichs, North understood that he still failed to correctly predict Rhodes' strength, and Rod's true strength had long exceeded the scope of his imagination.
While Rhodes was talking to the lichs, North had no room to interject, and due to the difference in rank, he did not dare to express any of his opinions, so he could only listen to their conversation from the sidelines.
North didn't have much idea about the battle between the lich and Rod, and even if the battle started, he probably wouldn't join it like other necromancers, and until now, he hadn't controlled any of the undead creatures.
North had thought that when it was all over, Rhodes might let himself raise his doubts with one of the lichs, so he waited for this moment to come.
However, the situation did not develop as North imagined, and he had just understood that among the words of these lichs, the decision to establish a target was pushed by Rhodes into the eyes of all the lichs in the field.
Just when North was a little overwhelmed, he noticed that Rod was looking at him, and at the same time, Rode's voice sounded in the field.
"Since you don't have any doubts about the candidate, then he will be the titular artifact holder for the rest of the battle. North, don't you have anything to say? ”
Hearing Rod's words, North's expression suddenly changed, and until now, he still didn't understand what Rod really meant.
Seeing that North didn't respond to his words, Rhodes just shook his head and said to him simply, "I hope you can seize this opportunity and become the necromancer you really think you are." ”
From Rod's gaze, North seemed to realize his thoughts, and Rod didn't seem to have forgotten the promise he had made to North, and everything that happened at this time was that Rhodes was helping North achieve this.
Realizing this, North just wanted to say something, but Rod didn't give him a chance to continue speaking, only to see Rod say to the lich in the field:
"I believe that you can all feel the strength of this necromancer, in order to prevent the next battle, before attracting the arrival of the enemy, he was recognized by the inner necromancer, I hope that you lichs can give him a token that belongs to you."
"The tokens handed over to North can be things related to the identity of the lich, or other types of treasures, and the quality of the tokens will determine the additional amount of the initial corpse witch king that I transform, even if I don't give anything, there will be a share of a hundred corpse witch kings."
One hundred Corpse Witch Kings is the initial number of Corpse Witch Kings provided by Rhodes for the lich participating in this battle.
The strength of these Corpse Witch Kings is equivalent to a hundred high-level creatures, which is enough to change the situation of a small war.
It is impossible for any one Lich to come up with so many Corpse Witch Kings in a short period of time, and they must be mobilized from various Death Knights under their command to do so, and some Lich who have not existed long enough can even come up with so many Corpse Witch Kings at all.
Before the battle began, these Corpse Witch Kings were enough to increase the strength of the lich by a lot, not to mention that the lich could also rely on the Corpse Witch King to convert all the corpses accumulated in the territory into corpse witches.
Relying on the existence of god-level spiritualism, Rhodes was able to provide these lichs with a larger number of corpse witch kings, but there was no need for this, a hundred corpse witch kings were already able to meet the needs of the lich, and the lich then distributed the corpse witch kings to the death knights under his command, and it was enough to complete the transformation of the corpse witch.
As for the start of the battle, if you don't let the Corpse Witch King go to the battlefield, just let him transform the Corpse Witch, these Corpse Witch Kings will not suffer too much loss.
In order to obtain a larger number of Corpse Witch Kings at the beginning of the campaign, all these lichs can do is to give the precious treasure as a token or something else to North according to the meaning of Rod's words, which is also Rod's last request.
The lich in the field naturally saw the relationship between Rhodes and North, in their opinion, in addition to the tokens that really proved their identity, those precious treasures were actually likely to fall into the hands of Rhodes in the end, but they didn't care, it just looked at the value of these treasures, how many corpse witch kings could be exchanged for them.
Because he was in the Death Wasteland, Rod naturally looked at Stephen on the side.
Stephen also understood what Rod meant, and after thinking about it, he took out a scroll-shaped thing from the spatial ring.
A ghost appeared next to Stephen and took the scroll, then quickly approached North's side and handed it out.
Seeing this, North had no choice but to take the sealed scroll from the hands of the Yin Spirit, and the curiosity in his heart made North involuntarily unfold the scroll.
In an instant, a majestic amount of death energy spilled out of the scroll, almost completely submerging North, and according to North's prediction, this level of death energy was enough to corrupt a necromancer and cause him to die in agony.
However, North was not corroded by the death energy, but felt a sense of warmth from this special death energy.
