Chapter 227 What should I do if I wake up in the enemy’s lair?
ka ka ka-
Rhodes slowly sat up from the ground and found that the magic puppet's movements were a bit stiff and there were many damaged parts.
It was obviously scratched accidentally when passing through the space rift.
He calmed down and tried to send the materials in the space ring over, but ultimately failed.
"Sure enough, the connection is too weak. It's so difficult to even pick up something."
Fortunately, the damage is not serious and does not affect normal operations.
His biggest problem now is that he cannot use elemental magic. Apart from the defense of the magic puppet itself, he can be said to be powerless.
With the magic power stored in his body, he can only cast a few spells at most. If he encounters a strong opponent, he can only run for his life.
By then, I'm afraid the connection with this plane will be completely severed.
"Forget it, just take it one step at a time."
After identifying the direction, Rhodes slowly stood up and planned to look for living people nearby.
however.
As he arrived outside the mass grave, his steps suddenly stopped.
A two-meter-tall skeleton hound and a giant eagle standing on a rock stood in front of him, baring their teeth at him.
[Undead Hound lv42]
【Undead Giant Eagle lv43】
Dry!
I can't be so unlucky.
Encountering a fourth-order undead right after coming out?
Two more?
Rhodes looked back at the mass grave, then at the hounds blocking the entrance to the mass grave, wondering why there were no high-level undead inside but some outside.
And just as he was thinking, the undead hound finally moved.
"Roar!"
With a roar, a huge body flew over, its bones covered in gray deathly aura, and through the ribs one could see the soul fire flashing inside.
Generally speaking, the larger and more condensed the soul fire of the undead, the stronger its strength.
The soul fire of the fourth-level undead has already ignited a gray-white flame, which looks very creepy.
The giant undead eagle spread its wings and swooped down from the top of the rock, its speed even faster than that of the undead hound.
"You little undead forced me to do this!"
Rhodes cursed and directly used the magic power stored in his body. Two magic circles appeared when he raised his hand.
Rumbling--
After a loud noise, sixty level 40 treeman guards appeared and formed an iron wall in front of him.
boom!
The Undead Hound ran headfirst into several Treeman Guards.
The swooping undead eagle was entangled by the branches thrown by the two guards and was suddenly dragged to the ground.
60vs2
Even if they were of a higher level, they could not withstand the attack from so many big men and were quickly defeated, roaring among the trees.
"Be careful not to kill them!"
Suddenly, a bold idea came to Rhodes' mind.
The spirits of nature are souls, and the dead are also souls.
Since grafting magic can graft two lives together, can it also work on the undead?
Once this idea came up, it became unstoppable.
Adhering to the idea of more research and fewer mistakes, Rhodes came to the two seriously injured undead and asked the tree guards to put them together.
He was now very curious about the sentence after the grafting magic, which was about producing new fruits.
Raise your hand.
The magical light lit up again, enveloping the two huge undead spirits.
After a while, something happened that surprised and shocked Rhodes.
The two unrelated undead creatures were actually wrapped in a beam of light and slowly merged together.
Even the soul fire in their bodies merged into one, transforming into a more surging gray-white flame, and their whole body's momentum suddenly increased.
When the light faded, an undead hound with eagle wings and more than two meters tall appeared in front of him.
[Undead Fusion Beast lv45]
hiss~
Is it really possible?
Rhodes was pleasantly surprised.
What surprised him even more was that this fused undead life actually developed a connection with him. It did not attack him again, but instead lay beside him very obediently.
In other words.
It's like he has an extra undead pet.
"Okay, okay, now the safety issue has been resolved."
Rhodes looked at the remaining half of the magic power of the magic puppet and found that the recovery speed was very slow.
The appearance of this undead pet can be said to have solved his urgent problem. Although its combat power is not too high, it is enough for him to move around in this plane.
"I'll just call you dog from now on."
Rhodes flipped over and jumped onto the back of the fusion beast. He thought about it and the fusion beast did as he was told and ran out of the mass grave.
This made him think of a question. Now that he has such a pet by his side, is he no different from those necromancers and can he perfectly integrate into this world?
Don't say it.
This newly realized magic of grafting came just in time.
The effect was completely beyond his expectations.
"Kakaka..."
The sound of bones rubbing against each other interrupted his thoughts.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m too unlucky or there are too many undead creatures here.
After running for only a few kilometers, another group of low-level skeletons surrounded them, apparently because they had entered their territory.
"Just right, the dog bites it!"
At Rhodes' command, the dog under him spread its wings and took off suddenly. With one glider, it swooped down on several skeletons and smashed them into pieces.
Then, without stopping, he continued to run along the road toward the outside. Fortunately, Rhode's mental strength increased greatly after his advancement, so he did not lose contact due to this level of battle.
I don’t know how many undead I killed or how far I ran along the way, but I finally broke out of this deathly area and came to the outside of a gloomy town.
"There is indeed someone!"
Seeing the town appear, Rhodes was delighted and immediately slowed down and approached carefully.
I saw many pedestrians walking back and forth next to a row of dilapidated buildings. A horse-drawn carriage was moving slowly. The sound of its wheels rolling over the cobblestone road echoed everywhere, startling a large number of crows on the roofs.
The whole town was dead silent, everyone was busy with their own things, and each person was followed by one or two undead creatures to help carry things.
It seems that undead creatures are a very common thing here, and even ordinary people can use undead magic.
"what are you doing here?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind Rhodes.
He was so engrossed in watching that he didn't even notice a little girl approaching and looking at him curiously.
Rhode was startled and was about to do something when he heard the little girl say happily, "I understand! You must be the guard sent by Lord Abbas, right?"
Abbas?
Rhodes looked puzzled.
Why does this name sound familiar?
correct!
Didn’t the death knight they had dealt with before call himself Abbas?
He reacted and said with a smile: "Yes, I was sent by Lord Abbas to inspect."
"Really? I knew Lord Abbas didn't abandon us!" The little girl blinked her big eyes, looking excited, and had no doubt about his identity at all.
When other residents in the distance heard the noise, they just looked up and continued to go about their own business, as if they all treated him as one of their own.
But think about it.
Undead creatures are inherently strange in shape and form, with all kinds of shapes and sizes.
What's more, he has a skeleton hound with him, so if you don't look closely, you won't doubt his identity at all.
Reassured, he asked quietly, "Does Lord Abbas often send guards here?"
"No."
The little girl pouted suddenly: "Everyone said that Lord Abbas has abandoned this place. There will be no more guards coming here. Many people have moved away."
"Why?" Rhodes looked puzzled.
Although this town is not big, it should have some output. The Death Knight is obviously the lord of a place, so why would he give up a small town?
“I heard from my father that the gods have fallen asleep. They are all fighting for territory and look down on our town.” The little girl said innocently, with her finger on her chin.
She seemed to have not spoken to anyone for a long time, and spoke like pouring beans.
"Lord Abbas is very capable. He often sends guards to collect things and drive away the bad guys outside."
"I heard that there's a big dog and a big bird outside recently, and they've hurt a lot of uncles and aunts. Are you here to help drive them away?"
Rhodes: ...
Big dog?
Big bird?
Rhodes subconsciously glanced at the dog under him. Could this be the guy he was talking about?
He also heard a lot of useful information from the other party's words.
The god of death is sleeping!
And his men are fighting for territory!
Could it be that……
His guess was correct. The God of Death really had a fight with the Moon Goddess and fell into a deep sleep due to serious injuries. Otherwise, why would his subordinates fight?
And it looks like the competition is fierce, even a seventh-level Death Knight can only live in such a remote place.
I'm afraid they are fighting for the throne of Death.
wrong!
How could such a big event as the fight for the throne of the God of Death happen in this dimension?
Could it be...
"Do you know what this place is called?" Rhodes asked hurriedly.
"Here? Shadow Town." The little girl was a little confused.
"No, I'm asking outside, what is this world called?"
"It seems...it seems to be called...the Abyss of Death?"
The child's innocent words rang out, but exploded in Rhodes' mind.
I rely on!
Abyss of death!
Isn't this the kingdom of the God of Death? !
How did I end up in this place?
This time Rhode was completely shocked. He wondered why the death energy here was so pure. He couldn't even sense a trace of elemental power, as if he was completely isolated.
It turns out that I accidentally broke into the lair of the God of Death!
What would you do if you woke up in your enemy's house?
Wait online.
in a hurry!
Upon hearing this shocking news, Rhodes didn't dare to stay any longer. If the God of Death suddenly woke up, he would eat him, the pagan, alive to replenish his body.
Fortunately, he had solved the trouble in the town before, so he could repay the little girl for her help. He smiled and said, "Brother has to leave here first to chase away those two bad guys. Please don't tell others that I have been here, okay? This is a secret mission."
Gouzi:? ? ?
Hearing his words, Gouzi raised his head, feeling that something was wrong.
"Okay, I won't tell anyone. This is a secret between me and my guard brother!" The little girl's cheeks flushed, and she agreed without any doubt.
Rhodes couldn't help but feel a little guilty at his innocent look.
But he was an outsider after all and could not change a person's life at will. After saying goodbye quietly, he turned around and hurriedly left the town without alarming the residents.
He needed to find a safe place as soon as possible and find a way to restore the magic power of the magic puppet and repair the damaged parts.
The connection between the Dream Forest and the Abyss of Death is really too weird.
Now that the God of Death has fallen into deep sleep again, he feels that there must be a huge secret hidden in it.
Maybe we can find out why the Moon Goddess disappeared!
