Chapter 72: Bone fuji

Looking at the small piece of vine tissue in his hand, Rhode realized the type of vine that had originally attacked the vampire.
Based on some experience from the previous life, plus the sights previously seen, Rod guessed that the creature guarding the mansion should be a special undead creature, the bone vine. The original rattan that attacked the vampire was part of the bone rattan.
After the higher-order plants die for some reason, the necromancer can transform them into special undead creatures through a series of soul-raising rituals, and the bone vine is one of the more common ones.
Because it is a special undead creature, Bone Vine has great potential. It can be grown by engulfing the flesh and blood of the creature. After cultivation, it is very conducive to defense.
However, although this bone vine is extremely powerful, it still has many limitations.
The blood and flesh needed to cultivate Bone Vine is extremely large, and because of its own reasons, Bone Vine cannot leave the root system like a normal undead creature.
After the vines are cultivated, they can only stay in one place. In addition, bone vines need to devour a large amount of flesh and blood as nutrients every day, otherwise it will show a state of depression and it is difficult to exert its own strength.
When the bone vine's rank reaches a certain level, ordinary flesh and blood can only allow the bone vine to maintain its current strength, but it cannot improve the bone vine's rank.
Because the body is a plant, the bone vine cannot be promoted by absorbing the energy of death like ordinary undead creatures. Bone Vine must gobble up high-quality flesh and blood to gain its strength.
Generally speaking, this kind of bone vines are cultivated for defensive towns above medium-sized. Because of the entire town as a flesh supply, this can exert its maximum strength.
Therefore, the Necromancer often puts this bone vine into a dormant state, and will not wake up the bone vine until enough blood and flesh have been accumulated. When Bone Vine is in a dormant state, it does not need to devour flesh every day.
Rhode realized that this was the reason why the mayor first withdrew inside the mansion. The mayor did not care about the results of the battle between Rod and Necromancer. He first came to the mansion just to wake up the bone vine from the dormant state.
At this time, Rhode had confirmed that the undead creature defending the mansion was Guteng. Knowing this, and thinking of the strength that Gu Teng had previously shown, Rhode knew that he could not worry.
Rhode looked at the small piece of tissue in his hands. Most of the bone vines had this structure, and only the position near the core would change.
Rhode took this small piece of tissue and came to the candlestick not far away, and placed it on the candlestick for burning.
Although bone vines showed resistance to fire in previous trials, Rhode still needs further confirmation of the extent to which this resistance has reached and how much fire can cause damage to bone vines.
Undead creatures are generally not very resistant to flames. No matter what kind of undead creatures, they cannot withstand the burning of flames for a long time.
When Rhode just got this piece of tissue, this small piece of tissue showed a white color, which should be its original color. Under the light of the flame, the tissue on the bone vine showed a special red color. The closer to the fire, the deeper the red color.
Rhode looked into the candlestick. During the flame burning, this small piece of tissue gradually changed.
At this time, through the burning of the flame, not long after, a charred black appeared on the tissue of the bone vine. The black gradually expanded from the burning center to the surroundings, and finally the entire tissue changed to this color, it seemed that only It can be torn off with a light touch.
Seeing this, Rhode knew that Bone Vine's resistance to flames was not as good as he originally thought. It could only be said to be average and stronger than low-level undead creatures like walking dead.
Rod realized that flames can play a big role. This is why Bone Vine will directly attack the ghost holding the torch, and immediately kill the torch on the ground after killing the ghost.
In the process of extinguishing the torch, because the single vine of the bone vine is relatively large and can produce great strength, it will extinguish the flame under the continuous whip. If the time is long, the bone vine will also Damaged by flames.
At this time, Rhode couldn't help but think that if he mastered the magic of the fire wall and had enough mana, he would undoubtedly be easier to deal with the bone vine in front of him.
Because he was anxious to conquer undead creatures before, Rhode did not search the magic book carried by the Necromancer. Although he could learn the spell of the fire wall in this way, because of the lack of mana, Rhode could not cast it.
Therefore, even if he knew that the flames can deal with the bone vine, Rhode still needs to act like a suitable method.
Rhode relighted a torch by the candlelight around him.
Rhode had just handed the torch to the ghost. At this time, a stream of water descended from the sky, extinguishing the torch in the hand of the ghost. At the same time, multiple streams of water appeared, causing all the candlesticks inside the mansion to go out.
Rod knew that this was the response of the mayor who had been watching the situation in secret.
Using spells to directly condense the water flow is just like making flames directly, and does not consume much mana. Therefore, this way of Rhodes only allows the mayor to consume some mana.
This created water flow can be generated from any location, depending on the intent of the caster. Even if the mayor stands in the room, because of the short distance, the water can be poured directly from above.
If at first the mayor was to observe the members entering the mansion, he deliberately left the flame on the candlestick to observe, then the mayor had obtained the necessary information and found that Rhod wanted to use the flame Immediately after lighting the mansion, the surrounding firelight was extinguished.
Compared with making water, the mayor's move undoubtedly made Rod understand something. Even if the mayor is inside the room, he can also see what Rod is doing outside the room through some means, which makes Rod alert.
As the surrounding fire extinguished, the light inside the mansion dimmed instantly, and Rhode had difficulty seeing the surrounding things. Only the room where the bone vine was located had a little glimmer.
In the dark mansion, a flame illuminates the surroundings. Rhode uses mana directly to ignite the torch.
Rhode stood there for a while, and the water flow did not come again, so that Rhode had some confirmation on the way the mayor observed himself.
Turning the torch to the ghost on the side, instead of letting the ghost try to ignite the mansion, Rhode just held the torch to illuminate it.
Rhode knew that if it were just lighting, the mayor would not extinguish the torch with a stream of water. As Rhode had originally confirmed, the mayor also needed the lighting provided by this flame in order to observe himself outside the room.
Unable to directly ignite the mansion with flames, Rhode began to think about how to deal with Guteng.
According to Rhodes, the best way to deal with the mayor is to leave directly from the mansion, and then send undead creatures to monitor every move in the mansion.
After learning the magic recorded in the Necromancer's magic book, and the mana value restored, Rhode wanted to deal with the bone vines in the mansion, which was undoubtedly a lot easier. Perhaps this is the easiest way to deal with the mayor.
After the bone vine is awakened, it needs to consume a lot of flesh and blood every day. As long as Rhode surrounds this place, it will not take long. Even if Rhode does not come to attack, the bone vine will lose most of its strength.
But, as Rod had previously expected, the war between Dia and Eri would start soon. Rhode needs to come to the Undead Spell Academy one step before the war starts, in order to get the most benefit.
Rhode has been staying in the town for a few days. If it is consumed in this way, even if Rhode kills the mayor without much loss, Rhode also loses the opportunity to obtain greater benefits in the war. Big loss.
At this time, Rhode made his own judgment, that is, he can only attack, and these undead creatures controlled by him, although they do not know how much loss, but as long as they can win the mayor, Rhode can accept.
In the previous battles, the mayors of the four spells were used. Rod did not know why the necromancer chose to come here to become a mayor instead of studying at the Necromancer Academy.
Rhode knew that the offensive had the same strategy, and it was undoubtedly the worst choice to let all the undead creatures swarm together. When the undead creature takes action and how to dispatch it, the necromancer needs to judge by itself.
In this regard, players can choose to learn special skills: tactics, and they will be able to improve their command after learning.
Rhode did not choose to learn tactics. Because it is not a necessary skill, Rhode can also command undead creatures by relying on his own combat experience. Therefore, Rhode does not want to spend the attribute points to learn.
Previously, the vampire was still able to scratch the parts of the rattan when it was entangled with the rattan. However, due to the short time, it did not cause much damage to the rattan.
This means that ghosts and ghosts can also cause considerable damage to rattan, but be careful with the cooperation of rattan, otherwise they will be directly killed by rattan.
Under the control of Rhodes, the surrounding undead creatures immediately prepared and came to the door of this room.
At this time, according to Rod's instructions, the vampire entered the room first.
Behind the vampire are the three ghosts controlled by Rod. In order to ensure that they can deal with Bone Vine, Rod sent all three ghosts controlled by him. However, at this time, the ghost has no movement, and is still located outside the door, waiting for the vampire to enter first.
Compared with the ghost, the ghost's basic attributes are poor, it is difficult to withstand a single attack of the rattan, and it will make the space crowded, which is not conducive to other undead creatures to avoid the attack of the rattan, and Rhodes will not let these ghosts come forward. Fight, but wait outside.
As soon as the vampire entered the room, a cane shot straight at the vampire.
According to Rod's instructions, the vampire quickly dodges to the side, and the cane hits the air.
The splint shoots out very quickly, and while the vampire dodges, the front end of the splint has reached the rear of the vampire.
The front end of the rattan twirled and turned towards the vampire, so that the vampire was entangled.
At this time, several rattans were shot again from the rear, striking towards the vampire.
In accordance with the orders of Rhodes, Yin Hao stepped forward and stood in front of the vampire.
The rattan hit the ghost, and the soul could not dodge. The rattan struck back a few steps, but then the dark light flowed on the body, and the injury gradually recovered.
In addition to one rattan sticking to the vampire, several other rattans wanted to attack the vampire, but were blocked by the ghost next to them first.
Although the body was entangled in rattan, but because there was no other rattan attack, the vampire took advantage of this opportunity to tear the bone rattan.
Under the tearing of the vampire, a part of the rattan wrapped around it was torn apart, but relative to the whole of the rattan, it still didn't help, entangled the vampire.
The rattan is extremely tough, even if the vampire tears it with all its strength, it can't be broken, and only a small part can be torn apart each time.
At this time, the vampire tearing the rattan, an unstable foot, rushed a few steps into the room, and then stopped the pace, almost hit the ghost in front.
It turned out that when the vampire was tearing the rattan, a great force suddenly came from the rattan, trying to retract the vampire towards the rear, directly making the vampire stand unstable.
Fortunately, the vampire stopped the forward step in time. The vampire kept moving, fighting against the pulling force of the rattan with all his strength, and continued to tear the rattan with his claws.
Another two rattan struck, but was blocked by the ghost in front of the vampire. Yinyin is not afraid of the slapping of the rattan. As long as the position hit is not the head, Yinyin can be recovered by its own characteristics.
Therefore, the ghost can help the vampire well and resist the attacks of the cane.
Rattan rattled several times in succession, but did not get good results. And the vampire has already ripped off the rattan wrapped around him for most of the time. Just continue to attack for a moment, you can tear the front of the rattan from one part.
Gu Teng seemed to realize this too. The rattan that had been entangled in the vampire instantly loosened and wanted to be drawn back, but the vampire grabbed the retreated rattan directly, making it impossible to settle down.
At this time, the rattan caught by the vampire began to swing violently, struggling violently in the vampire's hands, trying to get rid of the vampire's control.
At this moment, a sword was cut off, directly chopping the part on the rattan that was originally torn by the vampire. Rod did not know when he came to the vampire and joined the battle.
Despite the tearing of the vampire, the rattan still had a tough appearance and directly bounced off the blade that Rhode had cut off.
Seeing that the weapon in his hand could not cause effective damage to the rattan, Rod quickly removed a dagger from the space ring.
The dagger crossed Rhode's arm, and the red light spread.
Rhode waved his dagger without any hindrance, and immediately cut off the rattan sticks around the vampire.
