A few days passed.

At this time, the sky was already approaching dusk, and the crimson of the sunset was reflected in the forest, and the caravan team was stationed in an open woodland.

Under this crimson light, in a carriage in the merchant group, Rod, who had been in a state of deep meditation, slowly opened his eyes.

Due to the exhaustion of mana, Rhodes' connection with the surrounding magical elements disappeared in an instant, and Rhodes could only end this deep meditation.

Compared with shallow meditation, deep meditation takes longer than light meditation, often a deep meditation lasts for several days, and a deep meditation by a formal mage can even last for several weeks.

Generally speaking, the longer you spend deep meditation with the same amount of mana, and the longer you connect with the magical element, the better the effect of this deep meditation will be.

In the process of deep meditation, because you focus on your thoughts, your metabolism is minimized, so even if you don't eat for a few days, your body is not overloaded.

Listening to the cacophony coming from outside the carriage, Rhodes looked at the system logs.

…………

"Sustaining Deep Meditation ......"

"By deepening your connection with the fire magic element, your primary fire magic has been improved......"

"Sustaining Deep Meditation ......"

"Your spiritual attributes have improved."

"Sustaining Deep Meditation ......"

“……”

"Mana is not enough to sustain deep meditation ......"

"Meditation is over."

"Through this Deep Meditation, you have gained Spirit +2 and 4% of your primary fire magic progress."

"You have earned the Racing achievement [Quiet Heart]"

"Quiet Heart: Engage in a deep meditation. Base Bonus Spirit +2. Increases the effect of meditation by 20% while worn. ”

…………

With the system log closed, Rhodes learned the results of this deep meditation.

First of all, after this deep meditation, Rod's mental attributes, including the additional bonuses brought by the racing achievement, increased by a total of 4 points.

Through the experience of his previous life, Rhodes knew that when the caster first began to engage in deep meditation, there would be a rapid improvement period in his spiritual attributes.

This is equivalent to stimulating one's own spiritual uplift through deep meditation. Even a mage apprentice with poor qualifications can improve his spirit by 5 to 10 points through deep meditation.

In addition, through this deep meditation, Rhodes also achieved an achievement.

Attaining the achievement was expected by Rode, after wearing the newly obtained achievement, the effect of the promotion meditation was stronger than Rode's original beginner title, which was an improvement for Rode.

In addition, due to the deep meditation that relied on the elements of fire magic, Rhodes gained 4% of his progress in the cultivation of primary fire magic. But this 4% progress is almost useless, as long as it is less than 100%, it still cannot be improved.

Rhodes only needs to spend 1 skill point to upgrade primary fire magic to mid-level. If you want to improve completely on your own, I am afraid that it will take several months of deep meditation to do so.

Even if it's a special skill, what Rhodes learned through the system is more about how to use it. As for how to improve by training, it can only be relied on by Rod to figure out his own way.

Rod recalled that when the rank was not high, he would improve his special skills by quickly increasing the level of the character and obtaining skill points, and only when the experience points spent on upgrading the first level in the later stage were extremely large, he would improve his special skills through his own training.

It takes a lot of time to improve special skills, as do normal skills.

Of course, Rhodes can improve his strength through his own efforts and polish his combat skills over and over again, just like the original natives in the game, but the benefits are too low, and it takes a lot of time, which is far less rapid than relying on experience points.

After inspecting his harvest, Rhodes looked around.

On the side, the vampire was still sucking the energy released by the Revenant Crystal, and Rhodes didn't bother with it. Pushing open the side door on the side of the carriage, Rhodes stepped out of the carriage and observed his surroundings.

The first thing that caught Rod's attention was the towering watchtower on the side, the skin of which shimmered red in the light of the slanting sun.

Not far from Rod's carriage, the merchants were gathered around a campfire, talking loudly and waiting to be fed hot and fresh food.

Rod looked closely, and for some reason, the thief who had been in charge of monitoring Rhodes' every move in front of the carriage was now holding a weapon and cutting the hunted creatures by the campfire.

Even Yousher, the head of the merchant group, gathered around the campfire at this time, rubbing his hands and waiting to get the food.

At this time, it was just dusk, and it was not yet night, and the merchant group could still continue to advance while the light was sufficient, but the merchant group obviously did not intend to continue today, but was stationed here.

Perhaps knowing that his identity as a necromancer was not friendly to the rest of the merchant group, Rhodes ignored the others on the side and focused on the watchtower he saw. Rhodes walked straight to the watchtower not far away.

Although the original thieves had left, the merchant group had apparently not let down their guard against Rod, and there was still a professional sitting in front of the carriage that Rhodes was riding, the scout who had reported to Uther earlier.

The scout knew of a necromancer who was a traveler to the caravan, but he hadn't seen him for a few days. As soon as he saw Rhodes step out of the carriage, the scout was stunned for a moment.

Seeing Rhodes walking towards the watchtower, the scout stopped what he had planned to follow and prepared to report to the head of the merchant group.

Rhodes came to the bottom of the watchtower. Looking at the red watchtower, Rhodes reached out and touched the skin of the watchtower.

The skin of the watchtower is a red color, not because of the light, but because of a special coating, which can effectively prevent the corrosion of the skin by wind and sun. The red glow of the setting sun shines on the skin of the watchtower, making this red color even brighter.

Rod entered through the entrance at the base of the watchtower, and the internal light was moderate, with a spot on every other floor for light to enter, and Rod could see the steps at his feet, climbing up a spiral staircase to the top

In Rhodes' impression, in order to save construction resources, the common watchtower is only erected by wood in a stable form, and then climbed with a rope soft ladder, similar to the current watchtower, Rhodes has not seen much.

It didn't take long for Rhodes to reach the top of the tower through the top staircase. At the top of the tower is a spacious platform surrounded by a simple wooden parapet to prevent accidental falls.
