chapter 20 layout

Two days passed.

In the tomb, blue-black wolf corpses were lined up in a row. The corpses were cold and hard. Rhodes was beside them, checking the degree of transformation of the wolf corpses.

Except for the wolf corpse, all the other walking corpses are controlled by Rhodes and are currently distributed in different locations according to Rhodes' arrangement.

From the appearance alone, Rhodes could not judge the degree of transformation of the wolf corpse.

Rhodes tried to use spiritualism on a wolf corpse, and the prompt from the system was that 4 mana points were needed to wake it up.

The wolf corpse had only been transformed in the tomb for two days, and it had not yet completely transformed. But compared to the 30 mana points required to cast spiritualism before, this time is much better.

Rhodes felt impatient. Even if he knew that the transformation of the wolf corpse was about to be completed, he could not wait too long.

Due to his spiritualism and the improvement of his spiritual attributes, Rhodes could easily feel that the death energy in the tomb was getting stronger and stronger.

Compared with when he first woke up, the death energy in the tomb has increased by more than one level.

It stands to reason that the increase in death energy will speed up the transformation of the wolf corpse, but instead of showing a happy expression, Rhodes' face became more solemn.

As the death energy gathered, Rhodes had a bad premonition in his heart.

The experience in his previous life taught Rhodes that it could emit death energy and help necromancers transform undead creatures. The undead creatures sleeping in the tomb had at least level three strength.

At this time, the increasingly intense death energy was undoubtedly reminding Rhodes that the undead creature sleeping in the coffin was about to advance.

At the beginning, Airot placed the corpse here and used the death energy in the tomb to transform the undead creatures.

The corpse is transformed by absorbing the energy of death. The reduction of death energy not only did not slow down the advancement speed of the undead creature, but also gave it a certain stimulation, allowing it to advance faster.

Not long ago, Rhodes killed a group of wolves here again. Whether it was the death energy released when the wolves died, or the subsequent transformation here, it also accelerated the advancement of the undead creatures, which was more beneficial to them. of advancement.

Whether it was the increase in death energy or the warning brought by perception, it was clear to Rhodes that the undead creatures deep in the tomb were about to advance.

If Rhodes waits any longer, he can't predict what will happen. Maybe the undead creatures have advanced before the corpse wolf has completely transformed.

In the past few days, besides meditating, Rhodes had done nothing.

After a period of meditation, Rhodes, while recovering his sleepy spirit, searched around the tomb and made a series of pre-war preparations.

Rhodes collected various weapons and some equipment left on the battlefield. Later, Rhodes used the collected weapons to successfully chop down several trees.

Due to the huge trees in the forest, after some processing, the wood brought by a few trees was enough for Rhodes. But the price is that due to the rough workmanship, many weapons curled up during the process of cutting down trees, leaving them only for the use of the undead creatures under them.

Fortunately, Rhodes also collected enough wood. Relying on the space ring, Rhodes could move the wood to the tomb without much effort, but it only took a few more trips.

Rhodes' original idea was to use the wood to cover all the passages in the tomb, and then set a fire to burn out the undead creatures sleeping in the tomb.

As far as Rhodes knew, not many undead creatures could withstand fire.

The awakened undead creatures need to pass through the entire tomb passage, and the passage is filled with flames. Rhodes only needs to wait at the exit of the tomb to kill the seriously injured undead creature.

Since Rhodes did not know fire spells, he spent 1 skill point to learn basic fire spells.

(Basic fire magic: Through meditation, you have successfully established a connection with the free fire magic element. Based on this slight connection, you feel that casting any fire spell is more convenient. For you, Using fire spells will give you a greater advantage. The effect of the fire spells you cast is slightly increased, and the damage is increased by 10.)

Having learned basic fire magic, Rhodes can directly consume mana to create a small ball of flame to ignite wood.

However, according to Rhodes' approach, the environment of the tomb is a big problem. The flame needs to be in a place with air circulation to burn vigorously because it needs the support of oxygen in the air.

Rhodes found it a bit difficult to rely on the existing air in the tomb and make the entire tomb burn at the same time.

According to Rhodes' original idea, he also needed 1 skill point to learn basic air magic to circulate the air in the tomb. However, due to insufficient skill points and the large amount of mana required to control air flow, Rhodes could only change his plan.

Rhodes did not spread the wood across the entire passage of the tomb, but changed it in several places. Among them, the main tomb room where the coffin is located is surrounded by a large amount of wood.

In the tomb passage that was originally used to ward off wolves, Rhodes deliberately used a space ring to pile a large number of tree blocks here, leaving only a small passage in and out.

In order to move these tree blocks and make subsequent preparations, Rhodes deliberately placed all the items in the space ring in the open space outside the tomb.

Originally, Rhodes wanted to wait for the corpse wolves to be completely transformed and control them with only a little mana. However, the death energy emanating from the tomb became stronger and stronger, and Rhodes knew that he could not wait any longer.

Rhodes used spiritualism and began to awaken the corpses of wolves on the ground.

As the mana was consumed, the dead wolf began to stand up from the ground, staring at Rhodes with a pair of green eyes, waiting for Rhodes' orders.

After spending 34 mana points, Rhodes awakened the group of corpse wolves. Among them, awakening the Wolf King consumes the highest mana and occupies the highest spiritual attributes.

During the past few days of meditation, Rhodes used some techniques he learned in his previous life. Although he still did not enter deep meditation, he also greatly improved his meditation efficiency.

After finishing his meditation, Rhodes successfully increased his mana to the limit currently achievable. Due to the limitation of the knowledge attribute, Rhodes' current maximum mana value is 50, with 16 points left at this time.

After awakening the corpse wolf, Rhodes deliberately controlled the wolf king to try it out to see what abilities it retained.

The result was as Rhode expected, no ability was retained. Neither the leadership skills nor the magical arrows can be used, only the physical fitness is stronger than the average corpse wolf.

Rhodes was not disappointed. Even if it is the corpse of an archmage, if it is not transformed into a corpse witch but a walking corpse, it will not have the ability to release spells.

Through the spiritual imprint, Rhodes issued an order to the group of corpse wolves. Immediately, the group of corpse wolves ran along the passage towards the outside of the tomb, and all the arrangements were completed.

Looking at the narrow passage in front of him and the walking corpse wearing iron armor, Rhodes' hand ignited a ball of flame.
