Chapter 80: Ascension

After killing the old man, Rhodes put away his sword and waited for a while before walking towards the back door of the inn.

At this time, through the instructions of the spirit imprint, the undead creatures outside the inn gathered in the direction of Rhodes.

A ghost enters the inn, takes the old man's body, and follows Rhodes.

Arriving at the back of the inn, Rhodes saw the carriage waiting there, and the front of the carriage was empty. At this time, the rest of the undead creatures also came around the carriage.

The carriage was rudimentary, with only a sturdy horse in front of it and a carriage made of canvas in the back.

Although the canvas can block the surrounding light, it is completely incomparable to the all-wood carriage in terms of safety and comfort.

There were too many undead creatures around him to fit them all in the wagon, so Rhodes had other plans.

At this point, one of the ghosts placed the old man's body inside the carriage, and another ghost in the back put the necromancer's body into it.

Rhodes entered the carriage of the carriage, took out two average quality Revenant Crystals from the spatial ring, and placed them in the hands of the necromancer and the old man, allowing them to hold the Revenant Crystals while placing their hands on their chests.

The death energy released by the Revenant Crystal can only be preliminarily transformed, and if you want to transform them into undead creatures above the second order, you need to deal with it by Rhodes himself.

Originally, in Rhodes's perception, due to the hope in the old man's heart, the concentration of death energy on his body was not enough to transform into a ghost, and could only be transformed into an ordinary walking corpse.

Therefore, through a dialogue, Rhodes rekindled the despair in the old man's heart.

Due to the limitations of his own rank, for an old man who is just an ordinary person, no matter how frightened he is in his life, no matter how much death energy he generates, he can only be transformed into a second-order ghost.

Because of this, after Rod confirmed that the concentration of death energy on the old man's body was sufficient, he didn't say anything more and killed him directly.

Unlike that necromancer, due to his strength during his lifetime, Rhodes could try to transform it into a third-order Yin Spirit.

On the side, the vampire also entered the carriage, holding the Revenant Crystal that Rhodes had given him.

Since it takes a lot of time to travel this way, Rhodes not only plans to transform the two corpses into undead creatures, but also wants the vampires to take the opportunity to improve some of their strength.

At this time, Rod's position was already inside Diya.

In order to avoid the death energy inside the carriage from being too strong and causing unnecessary trouble, even if there were still a lot of revenant crystals in the space ring, Rhodes did not take them out.

Rhodes sat in the driver's seat of the carriage and took out the map from the spatial ring.

Once the location was confirmed, Rhodes himself rode his horse in the direction shown on the map.

As he walked forward, Rhodes opened the attributes panel and prepared to allocate his experience points.

After the battle with the Bone Vine, Rhodes gained a total of more than 1,000 experience points, the Mayor and the Bone Vine both provided more than 400 experience points, and the maximum experience points that third-order creatures can provide is 500 points.

After spending 200 XP to learn the skill [Bat], Rhodes still has a lot of XP left, which is enough to increase the level of the character.

"Cost 900 XP and 745 XP remaining. Raise your class level to Tier 2 Swordsman level 10......"

"Get 1 free attribute point, get 1 skill point......"

At the same time, when Rhodes checked the stats panel, he found that he had an additional racing achievement called [Defend Against the Undead]

[Defend Against the Undead]: Kill 100 undead creatures by any means. Base bonuses deal 10% more damage to undead mobs. Increases damage dealt to undead mobs by 20% when worn. ”

Through the system logs, Rhodes found out when he got this achievement. After finishing his battle with the Necromancer, Rhodes earned this achievement. In the battle with the mayor, [Defend against the Undead] played a certain role.

Looking at the remaining 4 skill points in the attribute panel, Rhodes thought about the route he chose to improve.

The choices of each skill flashed through Rod's mind one by one, and finally Rod settled down on his thoughts, and after consuming 2 skill points, he upgraded the intermediate spiritualism to the advanced level.

(Advanced Spiritualism: By delving into the knowledge of the undead, you can create more powerful undead creatures.) The breath of death hovers around you, and you desire to turn any creature that stands in your way into an undead creature. If you have enough mana, you can even be confident that you can craft an army of the undead. )

Rhodes' original plan was to transform the corpses in the back of the carriage into ghosts and ghosts.

Since Rhodes had placed the Revenant Crystal in their hands, over time, their corpses would receive the death energy released by the Revenant Crystal on their own.

When the death energy is about to transform their bodies into undead creatures, Rhodes will use spiritualism to perform the next transformation ritual to make them stronger undead creatures.

Although the achievement of [Necromancer] can increase the level of spiritualism by one level, even if Rhodes reaches the advanced spiritualism, he can only transform ghosts, not ghosts.

Rod chose to increase the level of spiritualism, and at this time, with the blessing of his achievements, Rod could reach the expert level of spiritualism, and there would be no problem in transforming the Yin Soul.

In addition to transforming these two undead creatures, Rhodes chose to improve his spiritualism in preparation for the next war.

After learning the spiritualism, under the influence of the achievement [Necromancer], Rhodes could only choose the professions of the cemetery system, and these professions have a powerful bonus to spiritualism, which is destined for Rod to improve spiritualism.

Rod realizes that spiritualism is also an opportunity for him.

The title of [Necromancer] can increase the level of spiritualism, and when the player's first skill reaches the Grandmaster level above the expert level, they can still obtain an achievement, and the effect is to passively increase the skill by one level.

Since these achievements are all racing achievements, only the first person to achieve them will receive the full effect. The game's makers apparently didn't anticipate that these two racing achievements would fall into the hands of one person.

It was originally a grandmaster-level skill, but under the influence of the racing achievement, it was increased by two levels, and Rod knew that when the time came, his strength could be greatly improved.

However, it costs 3 skill points to upgrade from advanced to expert, and 5 skill points to upgrade from expert to grandmaster.

At this time, Rhodes still has 2 remaining skill points, and even if he wants to improve his spiritualism again, he needs to increase it by one level again.

Rod's rank has reached level 10 of the 2nd Rank Swordsman. Just go one step further and you can enter the third level.

It stands to reason that the minimum experience value to be promoted to a third-order profession is 1000, but the effect attached to the profession is very poor, and the general third-order profession requires about 2000 experience points to open, and the powerful effect even requires 4000 experience points.

Once the rank is completed, the class effect can be retained, and even if you advance the rest of the class, the effect attached to this rank will always remain.
