Chapter Sixty

   Rod stood still and looked behind. The vampire was fighting the ghost.

   The vampire made a strong attack, but the ghost quickly floated and dodged at a low altitude, and the inevitable attack was blocked with a bony arm.

The appearance of the upper body of the ghost is similar to that of the skeleton soldier. It is a body made of human bones, but underneath is nothingness. Behind the hem of the cloth robe is an empty piece, and the lower part of the whole body has no actual shape. Because of this, the ghost has the ability to fly, but it can only float at a position not high from the ground, and cannot fly at high altitudes.

   Ghost is an advanced level of second-order creature ghosts. In addition to surpassing the basic creatures before the advancement in basic attributes, the advanced creatures will also master some special skills.

   Whether it is a vampire or a ghost, when they fight at full strength, they are not affected by the dim light around them.

   The ghost did not take the initiative to attack except after attacking Rod at the beginning. Facing the attack of vampires, the ghosts are more dodge.

   The vampire stuck out a claw, and the ghost flew backwards for a certain distance, flashing past the vampire's attack. The vampire went straight to the ghost again, trying to grab the ghost's body behind him, but the ghost directly raised his hand and slapped the vampire's arm aside.

   Due to the small difference in speed attributes, the vampire's attack cannot achieve much effect in a short period of time. Both are third-order creatures, even if the overall strength of the vampire is stronger than the ghost, there is no way to quickly kill it.

   Even if sometimes the ghost did not escape the attack of the vampire and was hit by the vampire, the spot that was hit immediately turned dark, and then it seemed that nothing was normal. Instead, it could use this opportunity to counter the vampire.

In the previous battle with the Blue Running Mage, the vampire’s claws broke many times. Even though the injuries on the body can be recovered, the claws used as an offensive weapon cannot be recovered in a short period of time. They can only wait for the passage of time. Recover on its own.

   Although it surpassed the ghost in terms of overall basic attributes, the vampire's strength has dropped a lot compared to before due to the loss of the claws on which it depends.

   In the battle with the ghosts, the vampires attacked one after another, without any effect. The vampire was a little impatient at first, and wanted to choose the way of bat-like, letting the bat pounce directly on the ghost. Since the ghost does not have any range of attack skills, the damage it can cause is basically by swinging its arms, and it is difficult to deal with the bats produced by vampire bats.

   But, just when the vampire wanted to bat, Rhodes stopped the vampire, let the vampire keep the number of bats, and did not let the vampire use the bat immediately.

   Rod observes the posture of the ghost, the ghost did not think about fighting the vampire. Even if the vampire uses bats now, the ghost does not need to deal with these bats, just quickly flee to the surroundings.

   In the previous battle, although Rod took the blade from the space ring, he did not help the vampire to attack the ghost together, but kept on guard.

  Because of the black clouds, the surrounding light is very dim, and it is almost difficult for Rhode to see the surrounding scenery. These dark clouds in the sky restricted Rod's perception. Originally, it could cover a large range of perception, but now it can only cover the vicinity of this hotel.

   Even so, due to Rhode’s spiritism and extremely sensitive to death energy, he still noticed many undead creatures around him.

   These undead creatures slowly gathered around while the vampire was fighting with the ghost, but there was no attack, but like waiting for an opportunity, just like this, Rhode and the vampire were surrounded.

  Because he didn't know the location of the manipulator behind these undead creatures, Rod also did not move, but focused on finding the necromancers who might be lurking around.

   At this time, in Rod’s perception, the number of undead creatures around him is increasing. As if knowing that the surrounding undead creatures were ready, the ghost screamed after avoiding an attack from the vampire.

   Suddenly, these undead creatures that Rod felt moved, and at the same time rushed towards Rod.

   Rod slammed a sword, slashed at the undead creature closest to him, and forced it back. Due to the proximity of the undead creatures, with the little light around him, Rod saw clearly the appearance of these enemies.

   The surrounding enemies are mostly dressed up like the ghosts, but they are not as strong as the ghosts. They should be second-order undead creatures, ghosts. In addition, there are some ordinary walking corpses, and there are no third-order creatures like the previous ghosts.

   Seeing that all the surrounding enemies surrounded him, but the trace of the Necromancer was still undiscovered, Rhode no longer kept his hands.

Through the spiritual imprint, Lord gave an order to the vampire, and then raised his hand. An ice ring centered on Lord and quickly spread to the surrounding area. The surrounding undead creatures were all damaged by the ice ring. The impact brought by the ring, these undead creatures were repelled one after another.

   The vampire on the side, after receiving the order from the spiritual imprint, saw Lord release the ice ring, he chose to bat it, and the whole body turned into a black mist.

At the moment when the vampire was transformed into a bat, an ice ring rushed past. The vampire had just entered the stage of bat transformation, and the bat had not yet appeared, and was not affected by this spell. The ice ring was directly formed by the vampire bat. Black mist. The ghost behind him was rushed by the ice ring because he had no precautions.

   Because the vampire and the ghost were fighting far away from Rhode, although this ring of ice hit the ghost, it only caused it to be impacted, and did not cause much damage to it.

   In the black fog, the bat threw out against the ghost, and the ghost quickly adjusted the body that was impacted by the ice ring, and dodged directly to the side, not giving the bat a chance to get close to him.

At this time, the surrounding undead creatures beside Rod were so close that they almost completely suffered the damage of this magic ring of ice. Although they could not be killed by a magic ring of ice, they were also treated against them. Caused a lot of damage.

   Taking advantage of the ice magic ring just released, the surrounding undead creatures were shocked and unstable, Rod rushed up and began to attack these undead creatures quickly.

   Rod did not choose to release magic again, in order to save mana, in order to deal with special conditions. According to Rod's idea, if you want to kill the surrounding undead creatures with the ice magic ring alone, you have to release them at least three to four times. Rhode was obviously unwilling to use his mana to kill ordinary undead creatures.

   The nearest ghost next to Rod, because of the impact of the ice magic ring, his whole body was rushed back. Due to the fact that it can float, although the body is somewhat damaged, the ghost adjusts its state in an instant. Just looking for the enemy in front of him, only a sword blade slashes towards him.

   The ghost dodges hurriedly, trying to fall backward to avoid this attack. However, due to the previous shock, the ghost failed to act in the first time, and the blade caught up with the ghost trying to dodge and cut off its exposed cervical vertebra accurately.

  In an instant, the whole body of the ghost lost its power and could no longer float, falling from the air to the ground. Only the cloth robe was left on the ground, and the dry bones wrapped in it.

   After killing the ghost, Rod did not stop, and immediately turned to the next undead creature on the side, and swung a sword at it.

   The undead creature that Rod is about to attack is just an ordinary walking corpse. Even if the walking corpse is in good condition, Rhode doesn't need much effort to kill it, not to mention that the walking corpse was hit by spells.

   Rod decapitated the walking corpse with a sword, and then locked the next target again.

   At this time, the impact effect brought by the ice magic ring has faded, and the surrounding undead creatures recovered and started to rush towards Rhodes.

   Rod did not fear at all. Before the surrounding undead creatures rushed to his side, Rod rushed towards the nearest undead creature.

  As the battle progressed, Rod found that the dim light around him had no effect on his swordsmanship. Even if the surrounding ghosts wanted to take advantage of the dark environment to carry out a sneak attack, Rhode was able to react in time, instead, taking advantage of their chance of a surprise attack, he severely wounded him with a single sword.

   After reaching the expert level, Rhode’s swordsmanship has not been improved, but the basic attributes have been improved, allowing the original swordsmanship to be more powerful.

When the basic attributes are not high, Rhode’s expert swordsmanship can help him deal with enemies with strong attributes. When Rhode’s basic attributes are no longer a weakness, the true strength of expert swordsmanship can be displayed. Rhode does not need to think about how to do it. The sword only needs to follow his own instincts to easily deal with these undead creatures in front of him.

   Low-level special skills can only deal with crises for a period of time. If they do not improve, they will inevitably appear to be of little use due to the increase in overall strength. Regardless of any kind of special skills, as long as they reach the expert level, they will have this unique use and will not be eliminated as their strength increases. A large part of what determines the strengths and weaknesses of high-level professionals comes from the number of expert-level special skills.

   Rod quickly cleaned up the surrounding undead creatures. When there were only a few undead creatures around, the vampire also joined in and helped Rod kill the surrounding undead creatures.

   Rod fought with vampires. These low-level undead creatures had no room for resistance and could only be cleared out one by one.

  It didn't take long for the surrounding undead creatures to be cleaned up, leaving only the debris on the ground.

   When all the surrounding undead creatures were wiped out, Rod also began to interrogate the vampire.

   Rod remembers that at first the vampire was fighting the ghost. According to Rod’s estimation, even if the ghost fights the vampire with all their strength, in a short period of time, the two of them will not be able to distinguish the winner.

   Rod remembers that the characteristic of ghosts is that they can restore their health over time. This characteristic of ghosts is extremely effective when facing creatures whose attributes are not as good as it. But in the face of Rhode, who is far superior to them and can kill them with a single blow, this feature does not seem to have much effect. Rhode can directly kill the ghost.

As the advanced ghost of the ghost, this characteristic of healing injuries has been further strengthened. Although it is impossible to recover the broken limbs, with this characteristic, except for the damage to the body part, the damage received by the ghost can be recovered. , So extremely difficult.

   Through the information from the vampire in the spiritual imprint, Rod learned that the ghost did not choose to fight the vampire, but retreated directly into the darkness. The vampire also seemed to feel something. Instead of chasing the retreating ghost, he chose to return to Lord's side and deal with the surrounding undead creatures with Lord.

  During the battle, Rod deliberately saved the mana in order to deal with the necromancers that might be hidden around him. According to Rod’s idea, if the necromancers around him did not take action against him, then he would probably choose to attack the vampire instead of letting himself kill the undead creatures he controlled.

Rod’s goal was placed on the hidden Necromancer from the beginning. He wanted to wait until his position was exposed before finding a way to kill him. If he has been hidden in the dark, Rod would have a hard time finding a way to kill him. find out.

   What Rod did not expect was that even if all these undead creatures died, the hidden necromancer did not appear.

   Rod recalled the situation when he first encountered the ghost. He originally meditated inside the hotel, but when he came outside, he was attacked by the ghost. When the vampire fought the ghost for a while, the rest of the undead creatures gathered here.

   Rod realized that these undead creatures should have nothing to do with the mayor. It is extremely easy for the mayor to find out his own movements in the town. If the mayor intends to attack him at night, when he walks out of the hostel, he will be surrounded by the mayor’s undead creatures. , Instead of like this, wait until you find yourself, the surrounding undead creatures are beginning to gather.

   Looking at the wreckage of these undead creatures on the ground, Rod was a little confused about his previous judgment.

   Among the undead creatures previously killed, there are not many walking corpses. Instead, they are second-order ghosts. After killing this group of undead creatures, Rod received a total of 440 experience points.

   Although the combat effectiveness of this group of undead creatures is not very good, the experience provided has not been reduced in any way. At the same time, it also shows that Rhode's strength has improved to a certain extent. It may still be difficult to defeat Tier 3 creatures head-on, but there is absolutely no problem with ordinary Tier 2 creatures.

   Seeing that the experience value has reached the level of promotion, Rod opened the attribute panel.

   "Experience consumption is 600, and the remaining experience is 130. The professional level is raised to level 2 swordsman level 7..."

   "Get free attribute point 1, get skill point 1..."

   Thinking of the next battle, Rhode did not allocate these points obtained through upgrades, but waited until the critical moment to use them.

   led the vampire, Rod chose to go to the mayor's residence again to find out.
