Invincible Hero of Necromancer Chapter 1764: Identification of the nautical chart
"Call..."
Returning to his own magical ship, Rhodes took a deep breath.
Although the incarnation of the king has left, the power of the flame king still remains in Rhode's mind and has not dissipated for a long time.
Just the imposing manner of the incarnation of the king, the suppressed Hell Beamon did not dare to resist at all, and could not even produce the slightest anger. If the king's body appeared in front of Hell Beamon, Rhode was afraid that it would surrender on the spot.
Remembering the fifth-order magic he cast on himself before the flame king left, Rhodes couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency in his heart.
“[Sinful Fire]: Fifth-order fire magic. Mana consumption unknown. Effect unknown.”
In the system log, under Rhode's character attributes, there is an additional icon that will be ignored if you don't look carefully. Apart from that, there is no other prompt.
Unable to rely on the system's prompts to get the effect of this magic, Rhodes was not only secretly surprised, but his expression became even more serious.
There is no prompt in the system, which means that Rhodes cannot rely on the power from the system to find out the flaws in this magic.
According to the incarnation of the king, as long as Rhode did not complete the task, the flames that disappeared before would reappear and burn Rhode's body to ashes.
Even if Rhodes completed the task of destroying the Sanctuary according to the incarnation of the King, he would not be able to leave the Sanctuary. Once you leave the sanctuary, the karmic fire reappears.
While staying in the sanctuary, waiting for Rhodes, only the Vulcan statue was activated, and together with all other demons, it became a sacrifice for the birth of the "beast".
The Flame King didn't give Rhodes much choice. The only options left to Rhodes were to die now, and to die after completing the task. Rhode, who doesn't want to die now, will definitely choose the latter.
Although he doesn't want to admit it, Rhodes seems to have gotten into trouble, and even disrupted his trajectory during the trial, forcing him to go to the shelter mentioned by the Flame King first, and then find a way. solve the current predicament.
The former Rhodes, relying on the power in the blood of the great demon, was not afraid of all fire magic, even magic such as the fire of sin, could not take effect on him. It was only now that Rhodes felt the horror that belonged to the Flame King.
"Lord Elote, are you all right?"
Just as Rhodes was thinking, Tis's words suddenly came to his ears.
After returning to the magic ship, with the help of Hela, Tis came to Rhodes for the first time, and asked him with concern.
Looking at the flame figure that appeared in the sky before, from the figure, Tis felt the terrible power, and she was most worried about Rhodes in front of her.
"Of course I'm fine. It's those Magogs who have something to do. Hero Tis, don't worry about me." Rhode's face was calm, he patted Tis's shoulder and replied.
Listening to Rhodes' answer, Tis lowered her head slightly, and her heart that had been tense, relaxed a little.
Hela, who was beside him, did not change her attitude because of Rhode's words. She asked slightly solemnly: "Elliot, I feel the breath of the king of hell, if I am not mistaken, then it should be From the jealousy of the king..."
"That's just an incarnation of her, not her body." Rhodes glanced at her and replied.
"I saw that she cast some kind of magic on you. The fire magic that comes from the jealous king is not a joke." Hela said with some caution, "It is said that the jealous king is the flame that was originally born. , the flame shrouded in her body far surpasses all fire magic in the world."
With Hela's words, Tis's heart that she had put down was lifted again. She looked at Rhodes with worry, and her body couldn't help but get closer to Rhodes.
Aware of Tis's concerns, Rhodes replied helplessly: "She asked me to complete a mission. We had to change our course and give priority to the nearest shelter No. 52."
"What does she want you to do?" Hela immediately asked after hearing Rhodes say so. She wanted to know very much why the jealous king planned to let Rhodes go to an ordinary shelter.
"You'll understand when the time comes." Rhode gave her a cold look and replied in a deep voice.
Different from Tis, who is easy to fool, Hela is undoubtedly more knowledgeable and can find more problems from Rhodes' words, but Rhodes doesn't want to say anything more to her.
It was Tis's question that made Rhodes feel more concerned.
"Lord Elote, how should we get to Shelter No. 52?" Tis asked Rhodes worriedly.
"Don't worry, I got the nautical chart given to him by the flame king from the fire elf, and it is not difficult to go to shelter No. 52."
While answering the doubts in Tis's heart, Rhodes took out the two parchment scrolls that the fire elf had taken out before he died.
Opening one of them, the nautical chart drawn on the parchment is exactly the nautical chart that Rhodes needed.
There is not much information marked on the nautical chart. Except for a small piece of terrain along the nearby Fire Lake, there are only a few shelter locations, including the target of Rhodes' trip, shelter No. 52. .
Looking at this nautical chart, Rhodes fell into contemplation.
If it were another demon, after getting this nautical chart, he might frown deeply, and then turn the nautical chart up and down a few sides, unable to understand the content at all.
Different from the map that everyone can understand, the nautical chart is more complicated, whether it is the marking of the terrain or the overall scale structure, not to mention the source of the nautical map in Rhodes' hands. The various marks made by the fire spirit made the nautical chart look more cluttered as a whole.
From these marks, what Rhode can understand is that it is a twists and turns, but the general direction of progress remains the same, facing the route of Shelter No. 52.
At the end of the route, there was an obvious deflection, and it seemed to be avoiding something. Unfortunately, this time, the fire spirit could no longer restore the route.
The fire elf wanted to try his best to confirm his position on the lake of fire. This route marked by him undoubtedly explained this to Rhodes.
"Unfortunately..." Looking at the route on the map, Rhode shook his head and commented in a low voice.
"What's a pity?" Tis heard Rhode's comment, she looked at Rhode's nautical chart, her eyes were deeply puzzled, "Lord Elliot, I totally see it. Don't understand the above... I must have disappointed you..."
Aware of the frustration in Tissy's words, Rhode thought for a while, and stretched out five hands at the same time, the longest two of them gently embraced Tissy, picked her up, and slowly put her on the On the top of Hell Beamon's head, the other two hands held the sides of the nautical chart and placed it in front of Tis, and the last hand stretched out a finger and clicked on the blank space of the nautical chart.
"Don't be discouraged, hero Tis, nautical charts require professional knowledge to understand. It's normal for ordinary demons to not understand the meaning of nautical charts." Rhode took the initiative to comfort.
After hearing Rhode's comfort, Tis's expression also relaxed, she asked softly: "Then can you understand this? Lord Elliot..."
"Of course I can understand, I have mastered the top level of navigation." Rhode replied confidently.
As Rhodes said, with the blessing of the magic ship's characteristic [Boundless Divine Power (pseudo)], his special skill, Navigation, has already reached a legendary level.
This level of navigation enables Rhodes to do things that other demons cannot do. As long as it is related to navigation, nothing can stymie Rhodes at this time.
In addition to god-level special skills, legendary-level special skills have reached the apex of this world. Rhode was skeptical about the existence of god-level navigation. In Rhode's view, there was no room for further legendary navigation.
"Look here. Although there is no sign on the nautical chart, the location I'm referring to is the magic dock where we set off."
Pointing to a point on the nautical chart, at the junction between the shore and the Lake of Fire, Rhode explained to Tis.
Listening to Rhodes' explanation, Tis first nodded, and then showed a surprised look: "Lord Elliot, how did you know this?"
"Through the scale of the nautical chart, and my feelings." Rhodes replied, moving his fingers slowly across the coast around the magic dock.
"We stayed at this Magic Dock for a long time, didn't we? We've all been there several times, no matter which side of the Magic Dock, just passing the surrounding terrain, plus the proportion of the journey, That's enough for me to confirm it all."
Tis listened to Rhodes's words carefully, nodding her head from time to time, and showing a positive look.
"And here." Rhode's finger stopped and landed on the road to the right of the Magic Dock, "Do you remember, when we bid farewell to those fallen ones and returned to the Magic Dock on the way, I asked you to run and follow me all the way, just to make you feel tired, so that you can better play your hero's specialties, and pass this tiredness to our enemies?"
"Lord Elote..." Hearing Rhodes say this, Tis couldn't help but raised her head and glanced at the dark yellow monster with a bit of resentment in her eyes.
Rod didn't notice Tis's reaction. His attention was completely attracted by other things, and his expression became solemn.
Lord originally thought that Tis's heroic specialties could be effective against any demon, but unfortunately, judging from the reaction of the flame king's incarnation, the situation did not seem to be that simple.
A creature without a true form will not be affected by Tis' heroic specialties, which Rhodes has deeply written down.
In a sense, those elemental creatures do not have a real shape, and they are not necessarily limited by the specialties of the hero of Tis. For this, Rhodes has to make further attempts.
Seeing that Rhode was silent in thought, Tis pursed her lips, and then asked, "Lord Elliot, why did you say it was a pity?"
Noticing Tis's doubts, Rhode thought for a while and asked her: "Do you see the zigzag black line in the nautical chart that is obviously different from other signs?"
Following Rhode's words, Tis's eyes couldn't help but be placed on the black line on the nautical chart.
The black line is very easy to identify, and it is obviously different from other marks on the nautical chart. It is like a flame, which is burnt out little by little on this not-so-precise nautical chart.
Recalling the previous fire elf, Rhodes can probably guess how he made those marks that belonged to him on the nautical chart. For the fire spirit, if you want to leave a mark on the nautical chart, you don't need any tools at all, just light the flame and control the trajectory of the flame.
"I saw it, Lord Elliot." After finding the black line, Tis explained softly to Rhodes.
"This black line represents the location where the previous fire elf sailed all the way. The twists and turns on the sailing path represent the situation where they had to change their course."
Looking at the twists and turns of the route, which has been bent many times, Rhode's complexion also faintly dignified.
"If the purpose of those fiery spirits changing course is to avoid the powerful enemy that he is about to encounter, then he will encounter too many enemies along the way, especially when he is heading to shelter No. 54. on the route..."
Different from Tis, who was very puzzled looking at the pitch-dark route, Rhode was able to see more problems from every change of the fire elf's route.
On the nautical chart, a total of five shelters are marked according to their serial numbers. From Shelter No. 50 to Shelter No. 54, they are clearly marked on the nautical chart.
Among them, Rhode was most concerned about the location of Shelter No. 54.
Judging from the deviated trajectory of the Fire Elf's route, it seems that there are a large number of magic ships sailing towards Shelter No. 54. Every time the Fire Elf encounters such a magic ship, it has to temporarily deviate from the sailing. After hearing Rhode's explanation, Tis also understood many things, but there was one thing she couldn't understand.
"I understand the meaning of this black line, but Lord Elliot, why do you say it's a pity?" Tis glanced at Rhodes and asked in confusion.
Rod didn't feel impatient because of Tis's inquiry. He patiently answered Tis's doubts: "Although that fiery elf has been working hard to correct the route, in this nautical chart I don't know how many signs he made, but he still got his current position wrong."
Rod reached out and pointed to the end of the black line.
"If the last deflection of the course represents the encounter between the fire spirit and us, then the end of this black line symbolizes our current position."
Tis nodded, but heard Rhodes continue to say: "This is a pity. Our position is not at the end of the black line, but further to the left from here. He tried his best to These logos made no sense to me at all."
Looking at the nautical chart on the parchment scroll, Rhodes also made his own evaluation.
