Chapter 236: Magical Assassin
Under the influence of the mage, a large number of spells bombarded the ghost dragon in front of him, but it was difficult to have any effect, and most of the spells released on the ghost dragon were eliminated under the effect of netherworld energy.
Even so, the ghost dragon still took some damage, and since he was unable to attack these mages in the rear, the ghost dragon could only vent his anger on the warrior in front of him.
Under the attack of the netherworld energy and the ghost dragon itself, even the heavily armed warriors could not resist the attack of the ghost dragon, if it weren't for the mages behind who blessed the warriors with various spells, plus these warriors had treasures to resist erosion, I am afraid that these warriors in front of them would have been killed by the ghost dragon.
It has been a while since the ghost dragon first appeared until the attack was launched, and in this process, there were many members of the merchant group who witnessed the appearance of the ghost dragon, even the ghost dragon with the breath of the ghost dragon could not kill all the creatures around it.
Under the spread of the news, coupled with the fact that the ghost dragon was blocked by these warriors, all the members of the merchant group were approaching this position, and in Rhodes' sight, there were already many guards who came to support.
These new guards are battling vampires who are blocking them.
Nearby, along with the guards, was a group of shooters with crossbows in their hands.
Due to the large size of the Merchant Order, there are many types of members in the Blood Radiance Merchant Order, and there are even shooters who are specifically responsible for long-range combat. These crossbow marksmen, Rhodes had only seen in Erathia.
In the face of the powerful crossbow arrows, the vampire also did not dare to hard-connect, and at this time he had already used the bat.
Seeing this scene, Rod immediately raised his hand, and with Rode's movements, the cloud of death immediately shot out towards the position of these shooters.
Compared to the dark green death clouds released by ordinary necromancers, the death clouds released by Rhodes are darker and denser overall.
Since the intensity of the cloud of death is directly related to the level of spiritualism, the cloud of death released by Rhodes is obviously far superior to that of ordinary necromancers.
Within the range of the cloud of death, all the crossbowmen who touched the cloud of death slightly quickly dissipated their flesh and blood in the cloud of death, until there was no more flesh and blood on their bodies.
For a while, these crossbowmen who came to support did not disperse because of the relatively tight formation, and under the attack of Rhodes, they did not play any role, and they died directly.
After seizing the lives of these crossbowmen, the cloud of death released by Rhodes did not immediately dissipate, but turned these lives into nourishment, and the whole spread outward a lot, and even touched the light blue shield in front of those mages.
Rhodes noticed that the cloud of death was blocked by a shield and could not penetrate it. In the previous battle, even the ghost dragon's Nether Dragon Breath could not penetrate this layer of shield, but these mage's spells were able to shoot from it.
Rhodes found that in the center of this protective shield, there was a dark blue crystal ball, which was suspended in the air at this time, attracting the surrounding magical energy to replenish the consumption of the protective shield.
After discovering this, Rhodes immediately had an idea in his mind.
At this time, the warriors in front of the ghost dragon gradually showed a state of exhaustion, due to the gap in rank, for these two fifth-order warriors, it was obviously extremely rare to be able to drag the ghost dragon for such a long time.
Under the corrosion of the Nether Dragon's Breath, the armor on the two warriors was almost completely damaged, and even the shields in their hands were almost half shattered.
As for the bodies of these warriors, although they are exposed to netherworld energy, they have a kind of talisman on their bodies, which greatly slows down the erosion of netherworld energy.
In this case, perhaps the most important thing for these warriors is whether they can have enough courage to fight the ghost dragon again after losing the equipment on their bodies.
In the face of the attack of the ghost dragon, one of the warriors, after the shield he held in his hand was completely damaged, seemed to have completely lost the courage to fight, and ran towards the position of the protective shield in the rear.
The rest of the warrior was unaware of his companion's behavior, and did not realize it until the pressure on him had skyrocketed after his companion had left.
Facing the attack of the ghost dragon alone, this warrior did not give up immediately, although the mage in the rear has also been casting spells to attack the ghost dragon, but obviously it can't last long.
Due to the suppression of the ranks, when facing the ghost dragon, the advantage in numbers obviously did not play a big role.
Even so, Rod still had an uneasy premonition in his heart.
According to common sense, under the attack of the ghost dragon, even if the entire merchant group is destroyed, it may take some time, and Rhodes doesn't know where this uneasy feeling in his heart comes from, but it is obvious that the merchant group must be resolved quickly.
In Rod's line of sight, the previous warrior did not produce any obstacles when he touched the shield, as if this light blue shield did not exist at all, and just passed through it directly.
After discovering this, just as Rod was about to cooperate with the ghost dragon and quickly deal with the remaining warriors, a feeling of extreme uneasiness suddenly came from Rhodes' heart.
Suddenly, a wave of magic was created from behind Rod. And Rod, who had been riding on the centaur leader, disappeared directly.
Right in front of Rod's original form, an assassin appeared holding a dagger and covering his entire face with a black scarf.
If it weren't for Rod who realized that something was wrong and teleported to appear directly in another position on the side, then with this attack alone, Rod would have been seriously injured or even killed directly.
Upon spotting the Assassin's tracks, the centaur leader immediately swung his battle axe in his hand and attempted to slash at the Assassin who suddenly appeared.
The blade of the axe slashed through the assassin's original position, but only sliced through a layer of afterimage, and not far away, the sound of weapons clashing was heard. The centaur leader followed the prestige and saw Rhodes resisting the Assassins.
As the centaur leader swung his weapon, the assassin had already locked on to Rhodes' position again and immediately followed.
The moment the Assassin appeared, Rhodes sensed that something was wrong. This assassin directly used teleportation and appeared behind Rod, wanting to assassinate him directly.
Subsequently, the Assassin's manner of fighting confirmed Rhodes's idea. When Rhodes used teleportation to distance himself, the Assassin also teleported, immediately following and attacking Rhodes.
