Chapter 62: Dogfight I

Rhodes stepped forward directly and met the undead creatures that were retreating.

Since Rhodes and the vampires were on the outskirts of the battlefield at this time, the other undead creatures around could only retreat in the direction of Rhodes.

Faster than Rhodes was the vampire who had been waiting on the sidelines, and the vampire rushed straight forward and pounced on the group of undead creatures.

Seeing this, the yin spirit, which had been paying attention here, quickly faced the vampire, trying to stop it.

After getting close to the Shade, the vampire ignored the Shade in the venue and chose to immediately bat into a bat instead.

Vampires have higher overall stats than the Nether, but they still can't kill the Nethers quickly. In previous battles, Rhodes realized this.

Therefore, Rhodes directly caused the bats created after the bat transformation to pass over the Yin Soul and pounce on the undead creatures behind him.

Due to the large number of walking corpses among the undead creatures in the back, under Rod's orders, the bats all pounced on these walking corpses, completely ignoring the ghosts that existed around the walking corpses, and only focused on biting the walking corpses.

The walking corpse is slow, and there is little way to deal with the bats, as long as the bats can be attached to the walking corpse, they cannot tear the bats off unless they are aided by other undead creatures.

At this time, the ghosts and ghosts in the rear came out one after another to help the walking corpses around them deal with the bats on their bodies, which undoubtedly slowed down their retreat considerably.

While the bats were frantically biting at the walking corpses, Rhodes also joined the fight.

Rhodes swung his sword and headed for the nearest ghost.

After the Vampire bats are turned into Vampires, they lose their target and can only try to attack the bats flying in the sky, as well as help the undead creatures around them to clean up the bats.

Just as Rhodes stabbed the Yin Soul with his sword, the Yin Spirit seemed to sense something and dodged directly to the back.

Since the Yin Spirit can float in the air and dodge extremely quickly, Rhodes stabbed the air with his sword, and then swung his sword again, slashing at the Yin Spirit in front of him.

The Yin raised his hands in front of him, and Rod's blade slashed at the Yin Spirit's hands, but to no avail. The blade did not cut off the Hand Bones of the Yin Spirit, but instead bounced off the Hand Bones of the Yin Spirit as if it had slashed into an extremely hard object.

A dark light instantly flowed out from the place where the Yin Soul was hit, and the dark light flowed through the whole body, and this attack of Rhodes did not seem to cause effective damage to the Yin Spirit.

After fending off Rod's attack, the Shadow Ghost slashed his backhand at Rod.

Rhodes turned sideways to dodge the Shade's attack, and at the same time slashed down with a sword, but was once again resisted by the Shade's raised hand.

Rhodes knew that due to the low basic attributes, he could not cause effective damage to the Yin Soul by relying on his ordinary attacks alone, and the use of skills was not the best choice because he could not attack the vital points of the Yin Spirit, plus he had to face other enemies.

Seeing the Yin Spirit swinging its claws at him again, Rhodes glanced at the field, determined the distance between himself and the vampire, and gave an order to the vampire through the spirit imprint, and suddenly, the bats on the walking corpses around him left one after another, gathering on the side of the battlefield.

Rhodes raised his hand, and a ring of ice was released around him.

In an instant, the ice-blue ripples spread out rapidly, hitting all the undead creatures in the vicinity, knocking them into unstable shapes, especially the Yin Ghost in front of Rhodes. When Rhodes unleashed the Ice Ring, the Yin was closest to Rhodes and took the maximum damage that the Ice Ring could do.

As the Ice Demon Ring slammed into the Yin Soul, a different light flashed on the Yin Spirit's body. The color of this light was different from the dark light that had flashed before, but a strange light with a blue tinge.

As this ray of light swept through the Yin Spirit's body, most of its health that had been taken away by the Ice Ring was restored. Rhodes noticed this trait of the Shade. But at this point, this feature is not so important.

After raising his hand to release the Ice Demon Ring, Rhodes immediately swung a sword at the front.

As soon as the dark blue light on the Yin Spirit's body appeared, Rod's blade reached the front of the Yin Spirit's body.

In order for this attack to be effective, Rhodes used all the skills he could currently use in this attack, just to be able to kill the Yin Soul quickly.

Since the Yin Soul has just been hit by the impact of the Ice Ring, although the damage caused by the magic can be restored through its own characteristics, there is still a period of time when it cannot be dodged due to the impact of the magic, and the blade of the sword accurately slashes at the neck of the Yin Spirit, killing it.

The purpose of Rhodes to release this ice magic ring, in addition to affecting the surrounding undead creatures, is to expose the flaws of the yin spirits around him, so that he can find the right time to strike.

After the Yin Soul was killed, without the high-level undead creatures blocking it, Rhodes began to quickly kill the surrounding low-level undead creatures.

The vampire fought with this group of undead creatures on the side of the battlefield, and after killing some walking corpses, the two yin spirits on the side suddenly rushed towards the vampire, relying on their own characteristics to entangle the vampire to death.

These undead creatures who had originally retreated, due to being blocked by Rhodes and vampires, had stopped retreating, and they could only fight again.

Previously, due to the fear that his undead creatures would lose too much, the mayor did not choose to pursue these retreating undead creatures. Whether it's sending his skeleton warriors into battle, or using magic to stop the retreat of these undead creatures, Mayor Mare doesn't make any moves.

But at this time, seeing Rhodes make a move against these undead creatures, the town mayor also had a new move.

The skeleton warriors who were originally surrounding the periphery of the mansion and formed a battle formation moved quickly towards the front in a special formation at this time, intending to attack the retreating undead creatures.

The group of skeletal warriors was formed in two rows, with those who had been wounded in the previous battle in the back row and those who were not injured in the front row. The skeletal warriors in the front row propped up their shields and advanced towards the undead creatures not far away.

If the mayor of the town was reluctant to make a move in the first place, he planned to find a good time to make a move, then he had undoubtedly found it at this time.

The skeletal warriors meet these retreating undead creatures. For a while, the retreat of these undead creatures completely stopped, and under the siege of Rhodes and the mayor, the undead creatures began to rapidly reduce their numbers.

Instead of paying attention to the mayor's approach, Rhodes focused on killing the undead creatures around him in front of him.

Suddenly, a feeling of palpitations appeared in Rod's heart, and Rod, without thinking about it, rolled to the side. At this moment, a dark red magic arrow passed by Rod's side.

This magic arrow shot out from the shadows, and before it was shot, Rhodes didn't feel anything abnormal. If it weren't for Rod's perception of danger, which made Rhodes roll and dodge at the first time, he might have been hit by the magic arrow.

Rhodes finished rolling and looked at the location where the magic arrow had fired, which was far away from this side, giving Rhodes time to dodge the magic arrow.

Due to the existence of black clouds, Rod's vision was extremely poor, and there was no fire over there, so Rod's could not see the specific situation over there, but he vaguely felt that someone was standing in the darkness over there, observing the situation on the battlefield.

At this time, Mayor Mare also began to use magic. A wall of fire rises from the retreating ranks of undead creatures, separating them from the middle.

For a time, the team of undead creatures was divided into two parts by this wall of fire.

Mayor Mare is clearly trying to make the other party panic in this way and create an opportunity for the Skeleton Warrior to make a move.

Although the mayor is inside the mansion, he obviously has a more intuitive grasp of the overall battle situation on the field, and there will be no mistakes.

At this time, the necromancer in the darkness saw this, and in order to deal with the mayor's wall of fire, he also raised a wall of fire in front of the skeleton warrior, blocking the skeleton warrior from his undead creatures.

Since the battle was fought in the mayor's courtyard, the overall space was not spacious, and the scope of a wall of fire was enough to block the entire path ahead, and for a while, the skeleton warriors faced this wall of fire, and they could not pass through.

On the battlefield, two walls of fire rose to separate their formations, which was undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for Rhodes.

In the team separated by the wall of fire, in this direction of Rhodes, the undead creatures are mostly ghosts and walking corpses, both of which are objects that Rhodes can quickly kill.

With the help of the wall of fire, without the hindrance of high-level undead creatures, Rhodes could easily kill these undead creatures.

Rhodes' blades swung out one after another, quickly killing the undead creatures around him. Rhodes, who was in the battle, had already discovered some problems.

Due to the need to guard against spells that may strike again, Rhodes did not focus all his attention on the battle, but divided a part of his spirit to guard against it, and because of this, Rhodes discovered some anomalies.

Rhodes realized that under his own interception with the vampires, these retreating undead creatures had been greatly damaged, and the hidden necromancer had not made any action except for releasing two spells, and he was hesitant to stay and fight with all his might, or retreat in time.

As for the hidden necromancer, Rhodes also has his own opinion. This hidden necromancer, whether it was the previous control of the Yin Spirits in battle, or the spells and decisions he made at this time, did not find the best time.

These thoughts flashed through Rod's mind, and Rhodes was still dealing with these undead creatures in front of him, and the movements of his hands did not stop.

As the battle progressed, the wall of fire blocking the Skeleton Warriors dissipated first, followed by the wall of fire in the middle of the undead team.

Although the dissipation of the wall of fire was only a matter of moments, Rhodes clearly noticed it. Based on how long the wall of fire had lasted, Rhodes understood that the mayor's mental attributes significantly surpassed those of the hidden necromancer.

Since most of the undead creatures in front of him had already been killed by Rhodes, Rhodes had just turned his gaze on the undead creatures behind him when he saw the two Yin spirits in the back rushing towards him.

Rhodes was shocked, and was about to release the Ice Demon Ring, but found that the two Yin Spirits did not think about attacking him at all, but turned to the side, bypassed him, and rushed in the direction where the magic arrow shot from before.

Rhodes didn't cast any spells, but watched as the ghost just left. Since there is more than one Yin, if Rhodes wants to forcibly keep the Yin, he will be attacked by these two Yins together.

At this time, there were several ghosts who also wanted to retreat, and Rod did not let them retreat so safely, but stepped forward to stop them.

As the undead creatures were bent on retreating, after Rhodes killed two ghosts, the rest of the ghosts fled into darkness.

Ahead, there are still some walking corpses left that have not been killed, but this is only a matter of time, whether it is the skeleton warriors on the mayor's side or the vampires on Rhodes' side, these walking corpses can be killed without any loss.

Just as the vampire killed a walking corpse, a skeleton warrior swung his sword directly at the vampire.

The vampire quickly dodged the Skeleton Warrior's attack to the side, and was about to return fire at the Skeleton Warrior, when the shield that the other Skeleton Warrior struck was in front of the vampire.

In the face of the shield, the vampire also had no countermeasures, so he had to dodge backwards. The vampire gestured to Rhodes through the spirit imprint.

Receiving the hint from the spirit seal, Rhodes looked to the mayor's side.

At this time, the vampires are at war with these skeleton warriors, but it seems that the situation is not particularly good. Under the siege of the Skeleton Warriors, the vampires tried to attack, but were always forced back by the Skeleton Warriors' shields.

The numerical superiority of the Skeleton Warriors was immediately manifested. In the face of the many skeleton warriors holding shields in front of them, even if the vampire wanted to kill one first, he would be blocked by the skeleton warrior next to him. Vampires don't have a good idea of what to do with these skeleton warriors.

The vampires' own advantages are completely unplayable, but the skeleton warriors are under the control of the mayor to play to their greatest advantages.

Rhodes looked at the skeleton warriors. The shields in the hands of these skeleton warriors seem to have been specially crafted, and they are wider than the shields held in the hands of the skeleton warriors that Rhodes had seen before.

The round shield held by the general skeleton warrior, because it is only used by undead creatures, will not be too wide, and can only protect the body by a small half, while the shield of the mayor is obviously specially made, and almost the entire body of the skeleton warrior is protected in the rear.

Rod recalls that the shields were almost as big and small as the one that Yuser had held before.

With sophisticated equipment and the control of the mayor, these skeleton warriors can hold off for a long time, even in the face of a large number of enemies. And when faced with a lone enemy, the role of these skeleton warriors really comes into play, suppressing vampires who are higher than them.

For a while, the vampire could not move smoothly, and could only be completely suppressed like this.

Seeing this, Rhodes didn't pay attention to the retreating undead creatures around him, but rushed directly in the direction of the skeleton warriors.
