chapter 10 award

After landing, Rhodes himself felt uncomfortable.

With Rhodes's current physical attributes, jumping down from a height of five to six meters would be enough. Moreover, because he wanted to assassinate the Necromancer Apprentice, he couldn't roll to remove the impact, so he could only fully bear the impact of landing.

Rhodes felt that his legs suddenly lost all feeling, maybe they were broken, and he felt severe pain in his waist.

Taking advantage of the moment when the surrounding undead creatures lost control, Rhodes looked at the system log.

"..."

"You killed a second-level hero."

"A brilliant victory! You gained 400 experience points!"

"You have obtained the racing achievement [Brave]."

"[Brave]: Kill creatures one level higher than you alone. The basic reward is 1 skill point. When worn, the damage caused to creatures higher than you is increased by 10."

"You have obtained the racing achievement [Hero's Blood]."

"[Hero's Blood]: Kill a hero. The basic reward is +1 for all attributes. When worn, the damage caused to the hero increases by 20."

"After killing a hero, your hero's specialties are partially activated. (1/3)"

The large number of rewards shown in the system log made Rhodes unable to react for a moment. What he did not expect was that this necromancer apprentice turned out to be a hero.

Indeed, after thinking about it carefully, Rhodes discovered something unusual about this apprentice.

The number of undead creatures controlled by the Necromancer Apprentice is too large. Whether it is a considerable number of walking corpses and skeleton soldiers, or these skeleton warriors, according to Rhodes' understanding of the necromancer, an apprentice-level necromancer cannot control so many undead creatures anyway.

Necromancers need to consume part of their spiritual attributes to control undead creatures. When an undead creature dies, the mental attributes it occupied will be returned.

When the number of undead creatures controlled by the necromancer at the same time is too large, the mental attributes will become extremely low, and the effects of the spells will be weakened to a certain extent. This is also a balance made to prevent the Necromancer from being too powerful.

Through meditation, the necromancer can obtain exclusive control of mental attributes, which can be used to control undead creatures instead of mental attributes to make up for the lack of mental attributes.

Even with the additional control of mental attributes, the number of undead creatures controlled by the apprentice in front of him was beyond Rhodes' expectations. During the previous observation, Rhodes didn't think there was any problem. Now that he knew he was a hero, when he thought about it again, he could easily discover these problems.

Without taking a closer look at the achievements he had obtained, after confirming that he had gained a large amount of experience points, Rhodes directly chose to level up without even thinking about it.

"300 experience points are consumed, and the remaining experience points are 125. The professional level is increased from level 1 militia level 6 to level 1 militia level 10..."

"Get 4 free attribute points, get 4 skill points..."

Rhodes quickly allocated 2 free attribute points to his constitution to recover the injury on his leg, then allocated 1 attribute point to strength, 1 attribute point to speed, and at the same time consumed 2 skill points. Learn advanced sword skills.

(Advanced swordsmanship: The long-term practice of swordsmanship allows you to master various swordsmanship killing moves, and you integrate the swordsmanship you have learned into your instincts. Just relying on the instincts brought by swordsmanship, you can use it in the right situation. Release the most correct moves. You can easily use any type of sword. The damage caused by sword weapons is increased by 30)

Allocating points with consciousness happens in a split second. By the time Rhodes finished all this, the other undead creatures had already raised their weapons and rushed towards him.

After the death of the necromancer's apprentice, the undead creatures he controlled during his lifetime returned to their true nature, which was to destroy living creatures. At present, Rhodes has not mastered the skills of controlling the undead, otherwise he can directly control this group of low-level undead that are not controlled by the necromancer.

The recovery effect brought by allocating free attribute points to the constitution was immediate, and at this time, the pain in Rhodes' legs was completely eliminated. Rhodes tried to exert some force on his legs, but it was no longer a serious problem.

Two skeleton warriors not far away had rushed to Rhodes' side, and Rhodes drew his sword and prepared to fight.

At this moment, Rhodes suddenly felt palpitations from behind. Without thinking, he hurriedly rolled away in one direction and was lucky enough to avoid the attack from an unknown source.

The Skeleton Warrior who had just rushed to Rhodes' previous position was not so lucky. He was hit hard by this attack. The armor he was wearing was dented and several ribs were broken.

After the roll was over, Rhodes quickly stood up and looked in the previous direction. Rhodes was surprised to find that the previously killed Necromancer apprentice stood up again, but with his head lowered and his body in an attacking posture.

This was beyond Rhodes' expectations. For a moment, Rhodes watched the Necromancer Apprentice attack the Skeleton Warrior next to him again. With just one punch, the Skeleton Warrior's shield used to block was deformed, and he was struck by the Skeleton Warrior. The place where the warrior hit made a sound of gold and iron, and he continued to attack as if nothing happened.

"Is this... undead aberration? Or magic energy transformation?" Rhodes thought for a while in his heart.

Since the experience points gained were displayed in the system log, Rhodes was convinced that he had successfully killed the Necromancer Apprentice. At this time, the apprentice's body stood up again and attacked randomly regardless of friend or foe. Rhodes began to speculate on the reason for the changes in his body.

Based on some knowledge he had in his previous life, Rhodes began to recall.

The first thing Rhodes thought of was undead aberration. In previous games, many powerful necromancers killed by Rhodes would do this after death.

Since the powerful necromancer's body contains a large amount of death energy, when the necromancer dies, this death energy loses control and will turn the necromancer's body into a corpse witch in a short period of time. This is the undead distortion.

But for the necromancer apprentices, the death energy required for undead distortion is too huge, and it is generally difficult to occur. Moreover, the way the corpse witch fights is not like what Rhodes saw. Thinking of this, Rhodes eliminated the undead distortion.

Rhodes observed the reborn apprentice. Its torso was hanging in an unnatural posture, but its hands and feet appeared to be extremely flexible. It was able to withstand the attacks of two skeleton warriors at the same time, and its fists and swords clashed without losing any momentum. , but it can make a small gap in the sword.

Based on the current fighting style of the Necromancer apprentice and the abnormal changes that can occur in the apprentice's level, Rhodes quickly surmised the reason for the change in the apprentice's body.

"Can magic be transformed..." Rhodes came to a conclusion looking at the corpse of the apprentice who was fighting the skeleton warrior in front of him.

Since legal professionals have mana in their bodies, this mana will dissipate when the caster dies. Magic energy transformation is to use some means of controlling the undead to bind the mana that would have been dissipated in the body, so that the caster's body can consume the mana in the form of fists and kicks.

Compared with undead aberration, the requirements for magic transformation are much lower. As long as you are a spellcaster with magic power, you can accept this transformation. However, the success rate of this kind of transformation is extremely low, and it can only take effect after death. Generally, not many people will take the initiative to carry out this kind of transformation.

Rhodes recalled that in previous games, this kind of modification was mostly used on dead soldiers on the battlefield.

At this time, the undead creatures surrounding Rhodes had already surrounded him. The closest ones to Rhodes were some skeleton soldiers, and the zombies were still moving closer to Rhodes due to their speed. Rhodes had no choice but to deal with these undead creatures first.

Since the corpse of the apprentice who stood up again did not belong to the undead race, he was also attacked by the undead creatures at this time. The two skeleton warriors that Rhodes feared the most were fighting with the corpse of the apprentice. For a while, neither side was able to kill the other. .

Without the threat of the Skeleton Warriors, Rhodes can easily deal with the undead creatures in front of him with his improved strength. Before the surrounding undead creatures could continue to approach him, Rhodes rushed towards the skeleton soldiers beside him.
