Invincible Hero of Necromancer Chapter 27: Deadwood Warrior
Rhodes walked through the jungle with vampires.
The light in the forest is relatively dark, and there are some dead branches and leaves under one foot. The surrounding trees were tall and tall, and Rhode saw at a glance that there were only five or six people hugging the trees, making it difficult to tell the direction.
Since there is no road in the forest, coupled with the lack of guidance of pathfinding, Rhodes has difficulty confirming the direction he is heading. Even with a map, Rhodes needs a reference to go to his chosen target.
According to the signs on the map, Rhodes plans to go to the nearest river first, and then follow the river to the nearby town.
Rhodes looked at the map in his hand. According to the records on the map, if you want to go straight to the river, you must pass a location with a danger sign.
Not knowing the specific surrounding environment or the enemies he might encounter, Rhode did not dare to go to the river at full speed, but instead took the vampire and observed the surrounding environment while walking.
Rhode, who has reconnaissance skills, is undoubtedly very comfortable in observing the surrounding environment. Although the speed of action is a little slower, there is no need to spend time on detours.
According to Rhode's idea, the enemy that the apprentice Elliot is difficult to defeat does not mean that he can't defeat it.
Heading straight to the river, Rhodes can spot enemies in the distance through Scouting. If the enemy is strong, Rhodes can retreat directly, but if the enemy is weak, he can kill him.
Rhode estimated that even if he could control the vampire himself, even if he faced the original Elliot head-on, he would not necessarily fail. Successive victories gave Rhodes confidence and made him want to defeat an unknown enemy.
Along the way, although no abnormality was found, Rhodes never let go of his vigilance and did not move forward blindly, but always observed the surrounding environment.
As the distance from the tomb grew, the light in the forest grew dimmer. Rhode looked around, and the surrounding trees were unusually tall. The branches and leaves of the trees blocked the light, and Rhode had to walk between these big trees.
In the process of advancing, a few slanted trees caught Rhode's attention.
The tall tree fell to the side for some reason, and the still sturdy trunk rested on other trees. The roots of the trees that were originally firmly attached to the ground were also sticking out of the ground at this time, and the roots were still stained with soil on the ground.
This unreasonable situation made Rhodes alert. Relying on the perception brought by the reconnaissance technique, Rhodes quickly observed the surroundings, but found nothing unusual, so he had to move on.
After walking a short distance, suddenly, as if he had discovered something, a strong sense of crisis emerged in Rhodes' heart, and Rhodes hurriedly took the vampire to hide behind a tree beside him.
The ground began to vibrate regularly, from far to near. In the forest, there was a sound of swaying branches and leaves, and the sound became louder and louder.
Rhode knew that in the distance, the enemy of some kind of creature was approaching in his direction. The power it brought, even Rhodes hiding behind the tree, could not help but feel a palpitations.
The shaking of the ground is getting closer. The vampire can also feel the strength of the enemy, and the body behind the tree trembles violently.
A strong tremor came from the front of the tree, and Rhode understood that if there was no shelter from the tree in front of him, the enemy would have discovered him.
The spiritual imprint is beating strongly, as if it is the instinct of the creature, and the vampire has a kind of fear. Rhodes could only force the vampire to stay still by manipulating the mental imprint, while restraining his own breath.
The shock gradually moved away, and the enemy did not find Rhodes and the vampires, but walked towards the depths of the jungle.
The powerful enemy was gone, the vampire gradually calmed down, and Rhodes still leaned back against the tree trunk, recalling the last enemy he saw.
At the last moment of the enemy's departure, Rhode quickly glanced in its direction, and with just one glance, the enemy's appearance was used to determine the type of the enemy.
The body is as tall as the surrounding giant trees, the humanoid torso, and the skin is covered with dead wood-like lines...
Deadwood Warrior.
The shaking gradually subsided, but Rhodes was still recalling the power of the enemy.
Level 5? Or higher?
Rhodes didn't know, but he knew that the enemy in front of him was far beyond his ability to deal with. If it wasn't for the dead wood warrior's inherent low perception, maybe he would have been discovered by it.
For ordinary people lost in the forest, the deadwood warriors generally ignore them, and even help them leave the forest. But for necromancers, deadwood warriors don't have such a good temper. Rhodes doesn't think that he will have a good end after being discovered.
Fortunately, there is only one creature like the Deadwood Warrior in an area. Watching the enemy go away, Rhodes doesn't have to worry about encountering other dead wood warriors again.
With the vampire, Rhodes continued in the direction of the deadwood warrior.
"Erie..."
Rhodes had certain ideas in his mind about the place he was in.
Before encountering the Deadwood Warrior, Rhodes roughly guessed where he was just by looking at the towering trees around him. At this time, after encountering the Deadwood Warrior, Rhodes finally decided that his location was exactly Eli.
Eri is ruled by elves. Most of the territory is forest. There are a large number of magical creatures in the forest~IndoMTL.com~ such as centaurs and dryads are common in Eri.
Among them, the deadwood warrior Rhodes saw was Eli's powerful guardian. Huge strength, coupled with strong vitality, makes Deadwood Warrior extremely difficult to deal with. Rhodes still remembered how these dead wood warriors looked like on the battlefield.
And the gathering place of necromancers, Diya, is located on the edge of Eri, adjacent to the border of Eri. All creatures in Eri have always hated Necromancers. Necromancers should be extra careful in Eri. Once discovered, they will be hunted down by the native creatures of Eri.
Rhodes knows his general location, but still doesn't know the current period of the game.
If he can know his position and the current period at the same time, according to his previous life's mastery of the plot, Rhodes can follow the general trend of the plot and gain the greatest advantage.
After moving forward for a while, there was a damp feeling in the air. As this feeling became stronger and stronger, Rhode knew that he was not far from the goal he decided at the beginning.
Finally, the occlusion of the leaves in front was reduced, the light was bright, and a river appeared in Rhode's line of sight. The sound of running water rang in Rhodes' ears, and Rhodes knew that he had found the river marked on the map.
According to the markings on the map, Rhodes' next goal is to follow the river to the nearest town.
When he came to the river, Rhode looked at himself in the water. He had short hair that was messy and could not see the color. The flowing river water could not show his specific appearance. Most of his face was stained with blood, and his clothes had long been torn. I don't know how many holes, all kinds of scabbed scars on my body.
Rhode smiled bitterly. He has basically been fighting since he came to this world. He didn't have any time to organize himself. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he threw his torn clothes aside and came to the river to clean up. .
