Chapter 948: Transformation
There will be no problems with Rhodes' own transformation of the Corpse Witch King, and it can be achieved with the help of the effect of the artifact itself, and what really bothers Rhodes is how to make Rowling have this ability as well.
Once this unique method was found in Rowling, Rhodes was able to apply it to other necromancers to ensure that the battle went smoothly.
In order to verify his thoughts, Rhodes first asked Rowling to transform into an undead creature, but the result did not seem to be ideal, even if he could also feel the abnormal death energy emitted by the ghost king's cloak, Rowling could not transform the corpse witch king.
On the contrary, Rhodes, with the blessing of the artifact, can transform into a corpse witch king at will, and is not limited by the original spiritualism.
Seeing that the traditional transformation method could not allow Rowling to complete the transformation of the Corpse Witch King, Rod did not hesitate for long, and planned to let Rowling try a new way.
In Rod's perception, there will always be a large amount of death energy left in the area where the ghost king's cloak exists, and unlike the regular death energy, these death energy is more refined and difficult to control by ordinary necromancers.
Before getting the Cloak of the Ghost King, Rhodes, who had a legendary spiritualism, could only faintly perceive the existence of this death energy, and could not do anything about it, which undoubtedly explained the uniqueness of this death energy.
Previously, Rowling, under Rhodes's instructions, completed the transformation of undead creatures through these unique death energies, but it didn't seem to have much effect, and the transformed undead creatures did not change much, whether it should be a skeleton soldier or a skeleton soldier.
Just as Rhodes was about to let Rowling try a new transformation method, the Corpse Witch King in the field caught Rod's attention.
After completing the transformation of the Corpse Witch King, Rhodes did not apply a spirit mark to him in the first place.
Originally, Rhodes planned to transform a certain number of Corpse Witch Kings before leaving, and with the existence of these Corpse Witch Kings, Ao City could also develop faster, so he did not apply a spiritual imprint to them.
Rhodes noticed that the Ghost King, transformed through the Ghost King's cloak, seemed to be very different in nature from traditional undead creatures.
The corpse witch king in front of him did not show strong hostility towards the living like ordinary undead creatures, neither the necromancers that existed around nor the skeleton soldiers with the spirit mark of the necromancer did not attract its attack.
For this reason, even if Rhodes did not control it, the Corpse Witch King did not make any moves, but only sensed everything around him.
This corpse witch king, whose behavior was somewhat abnormal, undoubtedly caught Rod's attention at the first time. At Rod's signal, Rowling quickly brought the Witch King under control.
Rhodes found that the two skeleton soldiers before were also undead creatures controlled by Rowling, and when facing the existence of the Corpse Witch King, they were faintly uneasy, constantly swinging the skeleton on their bodies, wanting to lean towards a position away from the Corpse Witch King.
Compared to the skeleton soldier's reaction, the corpse witch king's behavior was much more normal, and he was not disturbed by the skeleton soldier in the slightest, standing still in place.
From the corpse witch king in front of him, Rhodes could feel an aura of the same origin as the ghost king's cloak. An equally special death energy that could not be used by a regular necromancer emanated from the corpse witch king's body.
Previously, when he was in the Death Wasteland, Rhodes had also sensed this from the Corpse Witch King. Because he didn't have time to check it carefully, at that time, Rod only thought that the existence of this breath was because of the transformation of the ghost king's cloak, but now, Rod felt that it was not so simple.
Without waiting for Rhodes to make a statement, Rowling, who controlled the Corpse Witch King through the spiritual imprint, took the first step to feel some abnormalities from the Corpse Witch King.
As if at Rowling's signal, the Corpse Witch King turned sideways and raised his skeletal palms.
A strong death energy was released from the corpse witch king's body, but it failed to form a death cloud, a common attack method used by the corpse witch, but directly applied to the corpse displayed in front of it.
In order to verify the efficacy of the artifact, coupled with the need to transform a sufficient number of corpse witch kings in the city, Rhodes deliberately asked his necromancers to transport a lot of corpses.
Since Rhodes did not limit the types of corpses and the corresponding rank before his death, most of the corpses in front of him were preserved in the form of bones, and the flesh and blood on his bodies had long been weathered, and the types were not limited to humanoids.
With the movement of this corpse witch king, these bones in the field, at this moment, as if they had been stimulated by some kind of stimulation, trembled at the same time, wantonly absorbing this unique death energy, and a special transformation began to occur on these bones.
Perhaps because of the large number of bones, the death energy released by the Corpse Witch King was completely absorbed by the surrounding bones in a relatively short period of time, but it still could not meet the needs of the entire transformation process.
From the transformation process that took place on the bones in front of him, Rhodes felt an extremely familiar aura, which was the aura of Rhodes himself transforming before this.
The scene that happened in front of him undoubtedly made Rod realize something, and soon, the situation changed.
With the completion of the transformation process, these original bones stood up one after another in a new form.
Under the transformation of the Corpse Witch King, these bones in front of him were not transformed into ordinary types of undead creatures, but were transformed into fifth-order corpse witches, which also crossed the rank of these corpses before their deaths.
What appeared in front of Rod's eyes was such a group of corpse witches.
What Rhodes didn't expect was that the transformation method he wanted to explore actually existed in the transformed Corpse Witch King.
Relying on this ability of the Ghost Witch King, even if Rhodes no longer transforms himself, there will be a steady stream of corpse witches to replenish it, greatly extending the transformation ability of the Ghost King's cloak.
Looking at the appearance of this group of corpse witches, Rowling on the side also seemed to be a little stunned, until she received Rod's signal, and then she cast a spiritual imprint to control these corpse witches.
What made Rhodes a little puzzled was whether these corpse witches transformed by the Corpse Witch King still had the ability to transform undead creatures and increase their rank.
Once even these corpse witches have the ability to transform undead creatures, then the effect of the ghost king's cloak will undoubtedly be brought into full play.
At this time, Rod also began to understand why in the second expansion pack of his previous life, players would face endless corpse witches, and it was obviously difficult to do this by relying on Sandru alone.
