Chapter 45 Scouting
In the center of the battlefield, bats gathered, and the figure of a vampire appeared.
In the field, there were only less than half of the members of the business group who were still fighting vampires. The strength of the rest of these people is relatively strong among the guards, and most of them are in the second or third order.
The weak professionals in the business group could hardly survive the bat transformation of the vampires several times, and have been killed by the vampires first.
The remaining professionals still want to rely on their numerical advantage to slowly eliminate the vampires in front of them.
Except for the core members of the business group, for the rest of the guards, it was because of their interests that they gathered together.
Even if the vampire was under siege, there were only some shallow wounds on its body, and the only deep wounds were all affected by the magic of the mage without exception. These wounds have a certain effect on the vampire, but they are not fatal, but they even arouse its killing intent.
The only ones fighting the vampires are the few warriors at the forefront. The warrior kept hitting the vampire with his shield, trying to create an opportunity for the rest of the people around him to attack.
At this time, Rhodes, who walked down the watchtower, saw the blue-robed mage riding away. Rhodes realized something, and walked quickly to the corpse of Uther who fell to the side.
Coming to Uther's body, Rhodes checked and found that the space ring that Uther was wearing on his hand was gone.
Rhodes knew that it should be the previous blue-robed mage who discovered Uther's body, took off the space ring, and then quickly fled.
Rhode did not understand why the blue-robed mage did this. From the spiritual imprint, he felt that the vampire had suffered some injuries. Even without the command of the head of Uther, the blue-robed mage and the senior professionals around him, if commanded properly, You may not be able to conquer yourself.
Rhodes can only guess that the blue-robed mage wants to swallow these soul crystals.
Looking at the situation on the battlefield, the guards of the business group were fighting with vampires, and no one noticed Rhodes walking out of the watchtower for a while.
The experience of the previous life made Rhodes understand the value of these ghost crystals. Once he obtained this batch of ghost crystals, the death energy that he could provide would change qualitatively under the superposition of the number of ghost crystals.
With the help of these undead crystals, Rhodes can create a large number of undead creatures when the next war begins.
Without helping the vampires in the battle to kill the members of the business group, Rhodes came to a carriage, cut off the ropes on the horses with force, then turned on the horse and chased in the direction where the blue-robed mage escaped.
Since the blue-robed mage had fled for a long time on his horse, and Rhode had spent some time examining Uther's body, at this time, Rhode could not even see the figure of the blue-robed mage in front of him.
Although he has a primary reconnaissance technique, Rhodes can tell the direction of the escape of the blue-robed mage through small traces, but he cannot quickly distinguish the escape path of the blue-robed mage. Find the exact location.
Rhodes opened the properties panel. After killing Uther, Rhodes gained a lot of experience, and together with the business group guards killed by vampires, he can already improve his character level.
"Consumes 300 experience points, and the remaining experience points are 365. The occupation level has been raised to the second-order swordsman level 4..."
"Get 1 free attribute point, get 1 skill point..."
In order to ensure that he can accurately follow behind the blue-robed mage and obtain the soul crystal, Rhode did not care about saving the acquired skill points and used them, choosing to learn the intermediate reconnaissance technique.
(Intermediate Scouting: Through a lot of training, your scouting ability has been further improved. Anything is difficult to hide under your scouting. You can find the enemy's movements through subtle traces,
It is also possible to sense hidden dangers just by the wind and the grass. Detection range +4, perception ability +2)
After learning the intermediate reconnaissance, the tiny traces around, whether it was the soil splashed on the grass or the dead branches with slight depressions on the ground, seemed to indicate to Rhodes the movement of the blue-robed mage. Originally, it would take some time for Rhodes to distinguish the traces that he could observe, but at this time they were so obvious.
Rhodes immediately chased in one direction according to the traces detected.
Through these traces left by the blue-robed mage, Rhodes can even judge how long ago he passed by.
Rhode understood that since he had no mana at this time, he might not be able to defeat the blue-robed mage head-on by relying on his own strength, so he did not intend to catch up with him directly, but followed through these traces in the rear.
As Rhode chased towards the forest, the people who were fighting the vampires also found something unusual.
When the blue-robed mage escaped on his horse, he was discovered by a few people. Although they realized that something was wrong, these people were still fighting vampires, they were just suspicious, but they didn't show it.
The members of the business group realized that something was wrong when they saw another enemy dressed in black chasing the blue-robed mage.
Although they don't know what happened, these guards began to be a little timid when fighting the vampire. They just swam beside the vampire to avoid the vampire from hurting themselves, without thinking about how to kill the vampire.
At this time, the vampire's attack was entangled by the soldiers in front, and a thief on the side was planning to take this opportunity to attack, but was discovered by the vampire and chose to take the thief's attack hard.
As the thief's dagger pierced the vampire's body, the vampire's claws also slid across the thief's abdomen. A vampire can quickly rip a dagger out, but a thief can only fall to the ground.
In the back, a soldier was about to take the opportunity to cut down with a sword. The vampire didn't dodge or dodge. Taking advantage of the gap when the soldier made his move, he stuck out a claw at the soldier's throat and killed the soldier on the spot. Although the sword swung down by the warrior slashed at the vampire, it had completely lost its strength.
On the battlefield, the blue-robed mage lost control of the field. Although the surrounding guards still suppressed the vampire, as the duration of the weakened magic on the vampire expired, the vampire's original strength recovered, and the surrounding guards still did not dare to enter. Before desperately, the vampire began to show his power.
On the side, several more guards wanted to take the opportunity to attack, but before their weapons hit the vampire, the vampire saw the opportunity and turned into a cloud of black fog in the center surrounded by them.
Taking advantage of the opportunity that these guards were too close to avoid, the bats jumped on them and began to bite.
When the vampire still has the number of bats, it is obviously extremely difficult to kill the vampire without the powerful skills of the mage.
For ordinary second-order professionals, the bats transformed into vampire bats are difficult to handle when their attributes and special skills are not strong. Except for a few senior professionals, the rest were not feeling well.
The vampire has shown its third-order peak strength. If it is not like Rhodes that consumes the number of uses of the bat skills in advance, and then comes forward to find a way to attack the weakness of the vampire to injure it, but to rely on the advantage of the number of people to die. Vampires, the cooperation of this group of people obviously did not reach this level.
As the number of dead guards increased, the morale of the remaining guards in the business group became lower and lower. Without the suppression of the mage, they began to understand the horror of this creature when they faced the vampire in front of them.
