Heroes of the Invincible Undead
Chapter 59: Dark sky
Staring at Rod for a while, the mayor replied: "If you are not so anxious, in a few days, a business group will come to the town, and you can follow them to the city of mourning."
Rhode stood outside the mansion. After hearing the mayor's words, he seemed to think of something, so he said, "There is no freelance chamber of commerce in the town."
The mayor replied: "There are not many people in the town, but they still have to live. Many basic materials need the help of a business group to transport them."
The mayor’s speech was not fast, and he was not irritable because he was tried by a foreign Necromancer. Instead, he used a soothing tone. When answering Rod’s questions, he kept staring at Rod’s eyes.
After listening to the mayor's explanation, Rhode was more sure of his thoughts, and then asked the mayor: "I want to start immediately. Does the mayor have a map around this?"
The mayor replied: "You should understand the value of the map. If you need someone to lead the way, maybe you can find experienced people in the town."
Rod did not choose to refute. After being silent for a while, Rhode said to the mayor: "So, don't trouble the mayor."
After hearing this, the mayor reminded Rhodes: "The only hostel in the town is just behind the town, in front of the forest behind. If you plan to stay in the town and wait for the arrival of the business group, you can Rest there for a few days."
Although Rhode noticed nothing, he said nothing, but nodded to the mayor, and then said nothing.
The butler walked out of the mansion, turned and closed the gate, and led Rhodes back to the path when he came.
Unlike before not entering the mansion, when returning from the small road, Rod had been thinking twice about the mayor's words. Although he did not fully grasp the strength of the mayor, he also had a general understanding.
The mayor was extremely cautious in his speech and did not reveal any key information. However, due to the unequal intelligence, only through the dialogue between the two, Rhode still saw many clues.
Through several responses from the mayor, Rhode realized that the mayor seemed to want to stay in the town. Even though he indicated his intention to get the map and leave immediately, the mayor refused to give it to himself on the grounds that the map was extremely valuable.
Under normal circumstances, even if the price of the map is high, the mayor will not refuse, but will put forward various conditions to Rod, so that Rod will pay a certain price to get the map.
But at this time, the mayor did not give Rhode any chance and directly refused to provide maps. At the end, the mayor seemed to be kind enough to tell Rhodes the location of the hostel. In fact, he was more suggesting that Rhod stayed in the town.
Since there is no freelance chamber of commerce in the town, it is destined that the business of the town is difficult to develop, and not many business groups choose to come to this town.
Weak business groups, afraid of encountering danger in the town, will not choose to go here. The powerful business group, if it is the transportation of basic materials, will not look at the profits obtained in the town, and will not choose to come to this town.
As for what the mayor said, there will be a business group coming in a few days. Rhode can only think that either this is just a simple statement from the mayor, or that the business group has agreed with the mayor in advance.
If this business group really had an agreement with the mayor in advance, it would arrive in a few days or so, and the ultimate goal of the business group is the city of mourning...
Rhode felt a bit coincidental, but an idea took over Rhode's mind, and Rhode had to believe it.
The original Yinyin business group may have gone to this small town before going to the city of mourning.
As for the agreement between the head of the merchant group Youse and the mayor here, Rhode could not simply infer. But if this guess is correct, the mayor hopes to stay here, and he wants to gain money after killing himself with the help of the Silver Seal Merchants Group.
The body of the Necromancer, even if it is only an apprentice level, if handled properly, it can create a third-order ghost.
It's just a pity that although the mayor's idea is good, he obviously didn't know that Rhode joined the Silver Seal Chamber of Commerce first, and with his own strength, he almost completely disintegrated the entire Chamber of Commerce.
If the mayor wants to hold Rod, waiting for the arrival of the Silver Seal Merchants Group, it can only show that the mayor's strength is worse than what Rod originally thought, or that the mayor's strength has certain restrictions.
Before entering the mansion, Rhode did not take back the crystal of the soul of the vampire, but let the vampire put the crystal of the soul in his pocket. The mayor could also feel the energy of death from the vampire.
Rhode could feel the heart-wrenching breath inside the mayor's mansion. Both the perceptual warnings brought by reconnaissance and Rod's instinctive reaction believe that there are powerful undead creatures in the mansion.
But if the mayor is really strong, he will not let himself leave easily.
Rhode concluded that this breath should come from a creature dedicated to defense. Although this kind of creature is powerful, it has many limitations and usually cannot leave a certain range.
In the words, although the mayor did not try to introduce himself into the mansion, he only arranged two rows of skeleton warriors to stand in the hall, just to prevent the discovery of anomalies.
If Rhode saw the Skull Warrior and went directly to the mansion to attack, it would obviously be attacked by this defensive creature. Fortunately, Rod had seen this kind of creature in his previous life, but only through subtle feelings, he found anomalies and chose to leave temporarily.
Following the housekeeper in front, Rod and the vampire came to the place where they entered. The housekeeper originally wanted to continue to lead the way and take Rod to the mayor's hostel, but Rhode waved his hand to stop him, and turned towards the back of the town alone.
There, it is the location of the hostel that the mayor said.
After this trial, although there were only a few words, Rhode almost completely investigated the mayor's situation.
Rhode couldn't help but have some doubts. After he understood these situations, he was originally a single sentence, as if something connected them all. The original doubts completely disappeared, and these answers seemed to appear in his own mind.
At this point, if Rhode can open the properties panel, you will see that the hero specialty column in the second line still shows: Unawakened (1/3), but it is flashing violently at this time.
In this regard, Rhode obviously did not know, but observed the surrounding situation, while going to the mayor's hostel.
Rhode apparently did not plan to leave like this. Since most of the information of the mayor was tempted by himself, he only had to wait for the mayor to reveal his flaws.
If the mayor's card is the defensive creature in the mansion, then Rhode only needs to wait for the opportunity of the mayor coming outside the mansion to kill the residents, and then he can fight him.
In addition to the unknown types of defensive creatures, the remaining low-level undead creatures are not too much of a threat to Rod, except for some troubles.
The mayor obviously did not know that the business group he had originally expected had disappeared. If he knew that there would be no reinforcements coming, the mayor was obviously more anxious than Rhodes.
Seeing that the residents of the town have not yet escaped, Rhode knows that although the death energy in the town is rich, the creation of undead creatures has not been known to all residents. At least not the entire town is aware of this.
Residents of the town will be frightened by the disappearance of others, but they will not all escape from here.
Rhode knew that even the creation of undead creatures, the mayor carried out in secret, and did not arrest all the residents in the first place.
Rhode was not surprised about the mayor’s approach. Even if the mayor did not take action against the townspeople, because the town was close to the border and waiting for the war to start, other necromancers would come here to convert all the people here into Undead creatures.
According to Rhode's perception, the concentration of death energy contained in the mayor's mansion is not much different from that of the tomb where the vampire was sleeping. The mayor can completely kill these residents, and then pile up in the mansion for rapid transformation.
As Rhode was not clear, why the mayor did not choose such a way to improve his strength, so Rhode did not directly deal with the residents here, but chose to go to the hostel here, waiting for the night to come.
If the mayor chooses to capture the residents of the town at night to transform, Rhode can kill the undead creatures sent by the mayor, weaken the strength of the mayor, and limit the mayor to the mansion.
When the strength of the mayor drops to a certain level, even if there are guardian creatures in the mansion, Rhode can forcibly attack.
Rhode came to a building. This house was several times taller than the rest of the surrounding buildings, but it was still much smaller than the mayor’s mansion.
At the door of the hostel in the town, Rhodes walked in.
At this time, a sleepy old man was sitting at the counter in the hostel, and he didn't realize Rod's arrival for a while.
Rhodes looked inside the hostel. The first floor was supposed to be a restaurant. At this time, there was no one. There were only a few tables and chairs, and some dust fell on it. Obviously, the owner of the hostel did not want to clean this place.
Looking at the scale of the hostel and the rest of the scene, Rhode realized that, in addition to being used as a hostel, it was also used as a tavern for small town residents to entertain here. It should be one of the few places where small town residents can move. .
Rhodes walked to the counter on the first floor and tapped twice.
The old man who was dozing off suddenly woke up and looked at Rod in front of him, revealing some suspicious expressions, apparently because there was no one here for a long time, and there was a doubt when someone came to the door suddenly.
"I want to rest here for a few nights." Before the old man responded, Rod said his purpose first.
Hearing this sentence, the old man confirmed Rod’s intention and said, “Sorry... No one has been here for a long time. I didn’t expect to meet a guest today. In two rooms, four silver coins a day. Every morning and Some food will be provided at night."
Rhod nodded, took out a gold coin and put it at the table, said: "A room, food is not needed."
The old man took a key from under the counter and handed it to Rhodes, while holding the gold coin in his hand, he didn't say much.
Rod took the key and walked to the room on the second floor.
Looking at Rod's back toward the second floor, the old man opened his mouth and seemed to want to remind Rod, but in the end he said nothing, put the gold coin in his pocket, and sat back in his seat.
Rhodes walked up to the second floor, came to his room, found a place to sit down, and began to meditate.
Due to the possibility of fighting, and the ability to improve spells, Rhode did not choose deep meditation that consumes mana. Instead, he wanted to restore some spirits by shallow meditation, so that his mental state was slightly improved, waiting In the evening.
During Rhodes' meditation, the vampire didn't need to rest, but just stood aside and took the crystal of the dead soul in his hand.
…………
At night, as if he was aware of something, Rhodes ended his meditation for a long time and opened his eyes. On the side, feeling Rod's movement, the vampire looked at Rod.
Rhode got up quickly, took the vampire, and walked out of his room.
It was dark all around, and Rhodes quickly went downstairs. At this time, because the sky was dark, the original old man obviously had also rested, and there was no one downstairs.
Rhodes walked to the door of the hostel, removed the wooden bolt from the door, and went out.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Rhode noticed that it was wrong. When he was in the forest, no matter how tall the trees were and how dark the surrounding environment was, there would always be starlight penetrating through the woods to shine on the ground. Rhodes found that there was very little light around.
Even in the jungle of Erice, the light around Rod was brighter than it is now.
Rod looked up to the sky. At this time, there was no light in the sky, but a layer of black clouds. It was this layer of black clouds that completely shielded the stars from the sky, preventing Rhodes from seeing the distant scenes.
"Dark sky..."
Seeing this black cloud, Rod seemed to recall something.
This black cloud is like the dark sky that Rod once saw in the large city of Diya. Because these cities are covered by a dark sky, sunlight cannot be seen all day long, and it is difficult to distinguish between day and night in the city.
At this moment, this dark cloud undoubtedly reminded Rod of the dark sky he had seen. But Rod did not know why there were a lot of dark clouds similar to the dark sky. According to the overall level of this small town, the dark sky could not be produced anyway.
Rhode tried to perceive the dark sky in the sky and felt a strong magic energy. If it is not released by the mage, it can only be made with magic props.
If the mayor has the power to create a dark sky that covers the entire town, he will not let Rhode leave when he goes to tentatively, but directly kill him.
At this moment, too late to think, Rod suddenly sensed the danger and evaded to the side. A creature appeared in the position behind Rod, and Rod just avoided its attack.
On the side, the vampire saw that Rod was attacked and immediately greeted him, attacking with the creature.
Even though the surrounding light was dim, Rhode still looked carefully towards the creature through the eagle eye technique. Tattered cloth robe, skull-like face, floating and dodge in the air when attacking, it is a third-order creature, ghost.
