Chapter 694: Enter One
Looking at Tello on the side, Rhodes had realized that he could not get a solution to this problem from him by threatening alone.
Through the existence of the peeping eye, Rod could feel an extremely strong will from Troll, even if Rhodes killed him here, he would not be able to get any useful information from his mouth.
What puzzled Rhodes the most was that when Rhodes intended to use his prying eyes to go beyond words to get a solution to this problem directly from Troll's heart, or the memories that Tlow once had, he was extremely obstructed.
It seems that Troll's memories of this aspect had been processed long before Rhodes came to the Windy City. Even Rhodes at this time could not solve this problem.
Unable to directly use his hero expertise to get this special method from Tro, the best choice Rhodes could make at this time was to go to the Death Wasteland he mentioned under the leadership of Tro to find the lich that existed in it.
At this time, seeing that Rod no longer seemed to have the idea of making a move on himself, Tello was also relieved in his heart, compared to fighting with Rod, Tro was more worried about disrupting all his arrangements because of Rod's existence, so that he could not complete the original task.
In front of Rod, Tello took out an extremely special magic scroll from the spatial ring and handed it to Rod.
After taking over this magic scroll, through his own experience, Rod didn't even use the help of the system, so he judged that the spell recorded in this scroll was the fourth-order space-time gate based on the things recorded on the scroll.
Seeing that Rhodes seemed to have realized the particularity of the magic scroll in his hand, Tello said:
"This magic scroll in your hand was given to me by Master Stephen. The gate of time and space recorded in it is directly connected to the Death Desolation Tomb. ”
"With this magic scroll, you can go to Master Stephen's territory immediately, and if you're ready, use it at any time, and I'll go with you."
Listening to Thero's words, Rhodes didn't give any response. At this time, Rod's attention had been completely placed on the magic scroll in his hand.
From this magic scroll, Rhodes could feel a strong mana fluctuation remaining, even if this scroll was taken out of his spatial ring, this mana fluctuation did not decrease in any way, as if the scroll itself was emitting this mana fluctuation.
And in the magic fluctuations emitted by the scroll, Rhodes could feel the presence of death energy.
From the point of view of the most basic elemental essence, death energy also belongs to one of them, and there is no basic rule beyond this world, the whole world is composed of the most basic four elements.
According to Mage Bracada's research, death energy is divided into earth-based magical elements above the elemental types. Spells related to death energy, such as Death Ripple and Death Cloud, which Rhodes mastered, are also earth-based magic.
According to Rod's understanding of spells, although death energy belongs to the branch of earth magic elements, this does not mean that necromancers can use death energy to perform general earth magic.
Due to the differences between the types, death energy only works on spiritualism and some of the magic associated with it, and cannot be used on top of other earth-based magic, let alone other types of magic.
But at this time, from the magic scroll in his hand, Rhodes could feel the traces of extremely strong death energy.
In Rhodes' opinion, the earth-based magic elements that make up this space-time gate magic scroll have been essentially impregnated with death energy, and have become an existence similar to death energy.
It is also in this situation that this special magic scroll will always release mana fluctuations that Rhodes can perceive.
As Rhodes discovered the anomalies on the magic scroll, he seemed to realize something, and he couldn't help but ponder.
Obviously, the person who made this magic scroll was not a lowly mage apprentice, but a truly powerful necromancer, and it is even possible that Stephen himself made it.
In Rhodes' impression, only those truly powerful lichs who could release this form of earth-based magic elements could do so.
After the transformation of the Endless Night Ritual, the overall form of the necromancer will change dramatically. Under the infection of death energy, all spells released by necromancers will have this death energy attached to them.
After the Endless Night Ritual is successfully completed, the death energy will completely become a part of the necromancer, and all the spells cast by the necromancer will be affected by this, regardless of the original type of spells, and will eventually be dominated by death energy.
And this is also the promotion that the necromancer gets after becoming a lich. Faced with a lich's spells, his opponents need to be constantly on guard against the erosion of the energy of death in the spells.
Although being promoted to a lich cannot directly increase the damage of one's own spells, this unique ability, combined with the undead creatures controlled by the lich, is enough to make ordinary high-level creatures feel extremely difficult.
It is only in this case that the necromancer can truly complete the transformation of the Endless Night Ritual and can be called a lich. And in the process of assimilation with death energy, the erosion of death energy on the necromancer's body is actually only a normal result of this process.
It was through the uniqueness of the lich that Rhodes discovered the anomaly of the space-time portal scroll in his hand.
When he just took over this magic scroll, Rhodes still had some doubts in his heart, but at this time, recalling the special features that exist in the lich, Rod has also fully confirmed that the person who made this magic scroll is the Stephen mentioned by Tello.
Rhodes was not surprised that a lich would master the powerful spell of the Space-Time Gate, and that he could craft a magic scroll with his own hands.
Similar to the lich, it has long ceased to have a lifespan limit, and the countless years that have existed in Diya are enough for this lich to master a lot of magical knowledge, even if it is an orthodox mage of Bracada, in some ways, compared to the most powerful lich, it is also far behind.
