Chapter 125: The Crow Messenger I
With the necromancer dead, Rhodes prepares to search for the items he has acquired. At this time, in the surrounding formation, an old necromancer came to Rod.
Rod immediately stopped his search and looked at the necromancer in front of him.
Through the jealous eyes of the other necromancers around him, Rhodes knew that this necromancer's status should not be low.
The necromancer in front of him had deep sunken eye sockets, and his entire face was wrinkled like old bark, but this was not due to the age of age, but due to the erosion of the death energy around him.
The increase in rank makes the death energy in the necromancer's body more and more intense, which also makes it difficult for their body to withstand the erosion of death energy.
For necromancers, once they reach the level of seniority, if they still choose to keep the human body, their body will gradually age because they cannot resist the erosion of death energy.
Therefore, in order to master stronger spells, necromancers need to gather materials, perform the Endless Night Ritual, transform themselves into lichs, and break free from the human body.
From the necromancer in front of him, Rhodes was able to sense the existence of a rich death energy. Due to the suppression of the rank, Rhodes' most intuitive feeling is that it is a mortal threat.
Rhodes knew that the necromancer in front of him was the senior necromancer who was responsible for managing the entire camp.
In the current period, a fifth-order senior necromancer is the highest-level existence that Rhodes can encounter on the battlefield.
As for the stronger being, it doesn't appear here. Because once they do it, they can really change the course of the war.
Looking at the necromancer in front of him, Rhodes was ready to escape at any time. For the existence of a completely different level of strength, Rhodes did not have any other ideas.
At this time, the necromancer said to Rhodes: "The rules in the camp are that you are not allowed to kill necromancers above the apprentice level, you should know this, right?" So, why did you choose to kill the Crow Courier in your camp? ”
The necromancer's tone was slow, and through the necromancer's voice, Rod judged that the necromancer in front of him was a woman, but from the appearance alone, Rod couldn't see this at all.
Rhodes explained to the necromancer, giving a rough picture of what had happened before.
After listening, the necromancer in front of him said, "Based on your words alone, it is difficult for me to judge the truth of the matter, but it doesn't matter. Since you have broken the rules, you need to be punished somewhat. ”
Perhaps thinking of something, the necromancer continued, "However, you have successfully proven that your abilities are indeed stronger than the dead Crow Courier, and it would be a bit of a waste to transform you into an undead creature just like that. ”
"Then, it's up to you to succeed him as the new Crow Courier."
The senior necromancer said this, obviously not consulting with Rode, but telling Rod about the decision he had made.
With the necromancer's words, the rest of the surrounding necromancers all looked at Rhodes with some inexplicable emotion in their eyes.
At this time, the senior necromancer who was talking to Rhodes raised his hand, and the death energy instantly poured out, and the necromancer, who had died before, stood up again.
Rhodes noticed that in the process, the flesh and blood of the dead necromancer began to rapidly age and decay.
As the fallen necromancer got up, the flesh and blood of his body faded underneath him, and his entire body began to break in the middle. The standing necromancer ripped off his robe and threw his lower body to the ground, while his upper body floated in the air.
In front of Rod's eyes, the transformation of an undead creature was completed in an instant. Through the perception of the strength of the undead creature in front of him, Rhodes knew that it was not just an ordinary ghost.
Due to the great pain and resentment before death, and the fact that he was a full-fledged necromancer, the one floating in front of Rhodes should belong to the fourth-order creature, the Resentful Spirit.
At this time, the wrath held the spatial ring and scroll on its original body in the hands of a skeleton, and then came to the senior necromancer's side and handed it over to the senior necromancer.
The senior necromancer did not care at all that the item in front of him was stained with flesh and blood, but directly put the spatial ring in his hand, and after examining the scroll, he put it into the spatial ring.
Seeing this move, Rhodes didn't say much. Due to his lack of strength, even if he killed the Crow Courier here, what should have been his own loot would be taken away by the senior necromancer.
After dealing with all this, the Raven Courier Necromancer didn't say anything more, and walked towards his original team with the newly transformed resentful spirit.
A ghost arrives at Rod's side, ready to take him to the camp belonging to the Crow Courier.
Rhodes was silent for a moment, then followed the ghost to the camp belonging to the Crow Courier.
The vampire didn't follow Rhodes, but stayed where he was, staring at the flesh of the resentful spirit, not knowing what to think.
Led by the Shadow, Rhodes entered the tent, and after the Shade took Rhodes with him, he did not leave there, but stood outside the tent.
Inside the tent, Rhodes looked around.
There were a lot of miscellaneous items inside the tent, and in addition to gold coins, there were even a lot of treasures. In the middle of the tent was a crystal ball, which was the same item that the Crow used to confirm the mission information.
Rhodes knew that this was the place responsible for the handover of the mission, and in addition to being in charge of the handover and confirmation of the mission, the Crow Courier was also responsible for the distribution of mission rewards.
Rhodes placed the college badge in the palm of his hand while pressing his hand on the crystal ball.
At this time, through the academy badge in Rod's hand, a spiritual consciousness was transmitted to Rod's mind, and Rod began to quickly check the information contained in his spiritual will.
Through this information, Rhodes learned that the crystal ball was obviously able to confirm the life and death of the necromancer who was originally responsible for delivering the mission, and after the death of the necromancer, whoever first obtained the information transmitted in the spirit imprint in this way would be equivalent to replacing the original necromancer and becoming the new crow messenger.
In the consciousness, the first point emphasized was that the Crow Messenger, who was in charge of the management task, could not leave the range of the camp, otherwise he would be severely punished.
In addition, the distribution of tasks and the distribution of rewards are all handled by the Crow Courier himself, and the Academy only provides a rough template.
At this time, Rhodes learns that in this camp, in addition to himself, there are two other Crow Couriers who are also responsible for managing the mission.
