Chapter 702 Observation 2
With the reduction of death energy, when the effect of the dark sky weakened, the figure of this Lich also appeared in front of Rhodes.
After a brief observation, a lot of information flashed in Rhodes' mind, and at the same time he roughly realized the strength of this Lich.
At the same time, the Lich also thought about how to deal with Rhodes who appeared here.
No matter what level one's rank is promoted to, this kind of observation can greatly affect the next decision-making, even if it is a lich, this is also applicable.
In the territory of Diya, Liches need a large number of ordinary necromancers in the process of accumulating strength, and this is the final destination of most necromancers who fail to become liches.
For this reason, the necromancers in Diya will deliberately stay away from the area where the lich exists to avoid danger to themselves, let alone come to the territory where the lich is located to seek solutions to the problem like Troo. method.
In Rhodes' view, this behavior of Troy is tantamount to sending high-quality materials for making undead creatures to the lich. What surprised Rhodes was that Trolo actually succeeded. Not only did he survive the lich's hands, he also solved the erosion of death energy with the help of the lich.
It was also this that made Rhodes realize that this lich might be somewhat different from what he had imagined, and he was trying to use Tro to achieve something. The magic that exists in Tro, produced by this lich The scroll is the best proof.
According to Rhodes' understanding, even if the liches in Diya possessed extremely powerful strength, they rarely confronted existences with the same strength as their own, that is, between liches.
In most cases, the liches in Diya are all in their respective territories, and they have accumulated strength for a long time, and they will avoid conflicts with each other.
For liches, after losing the limit of lifespan, the best way for them to improve their strength is this kind of accumulation of strength, and the conflict between them will only cause losses to themselves, and cannot bring any real strength. improvement.
It's just that this kind of practice among liches is only limited to those who are similar in strength to them, that is, they are also liches. If they are replaced by ordinary necromancers, they will only be killed by liches.
Because of this, when the lich vaguely felt the strength he possessed from Rhodes and the threat he might pose to himself, his mind changed.
Although in the eyes of this lich, Rhodes has not yet completed the endless night ceremony, his life essence is far inferior to himself at this time,
But the signal from the perception also made the Lich realize that Rhodes is not as simple as he observed.
As early as when the magic scroll of the gate of time and space made by itself was used, the lich realized Rhodes' arrival, and observed the situation of Rhodes and his party through the undead creatures around.
Originally, based on the results observed by the undead creatures, the Lich didn't think that Rhodes and his party had anything worth caring about. Even the extremely powerful ghost dragon, in the eyes of this lich, is not much stronger than the undead creatures he controls.
However, when the effect of the dark sky weakened, the lich also sensed some abnormalities from Rhodes through his short observation. The lich hadn't felt the threat of death for some time, so he made his own decision.
Under Rhode's gaze, the Lich's figure in the distance flashed, and the next moment, the Lich appeared not far in front of Rhodes.
Right after the appearance of this lich, Rhodes seemed to feel something, and he felt a lot of vigilance in his heart.
Rhodes noticed that when the lich cast teleportation and approached him, he didn't perceive any mana fluctuations in his perception.
In itself, spells like teleportation need to affect the entire body of the caster, and the mana fluctuations in the space caused by them are far higher than any spells of the same level. This is also the reason why all mages who master teleportation recognized.
In the past, Rhodes' tracking of teleportation and thus chasing the target also relied on his perception of mana fluctuations, combined with his past experience, to achieve this.
Even Witt, who was in Verning before, would generate relatively large mana fluctuations when he cast teleportation, so that Rhodes could perceive the trajectory of his actions.
However, what surprised Rhodes was that the lich that appeared in front of him didn't have any mana fluctuations escaping when he cast teleportation.
Based on his previous understanding of mages, Rhodes immediately realized what this meant.
In Rhode's view, being able to make teleportation, the most difficult of the third-order magics, without overflowing a little mana fluctuation when cast, this lich obviously mastered higher-level spellcasting methods.
According to Rhodes' guess, when a lich with this ability casts ordinary fourth-order spells, there will be no mana fluctuations, which makes the spells cast more concealed.
Even a high-level mage with extremely keen perception, without any mana fluctuations, it is difficult to perceive the signs of danger in the first place, so that he cannot respond in time.
In the process of fighting with high-level mages, in addition to being more concealed when casting spells, coupled with the unique spellcasting characteristics of lich, this lich can occupy a great advantage, and even rely on its own With the ability to cast spells, it can suppress the high-level mages who are better at spells at the same level.
The long-term accumulation of strength has given this lich such strength. Rhodes can see this through some signs that exist on this Lich.
At the same time, Rhodes also realized that his previous guesses about this Lich were not as intuitive as his perception of its strength at this time.
Rhodes' way of chasing down the mage who used teleportation in the past, at this moment, undoubtedly has no effect on this lich.
When the Lich was casting teleportation, Rhodes couldn't even perceive the mana fluctuations, so how could he pursue the Lich afterwards?
Just by using a teleportation to bring himself in front of Rhodes, this Lich showed such a powerful ability to cast spells. Rhode's judgment on the strength of this Lich undoubtedly improved again. In Rhodes' view, the real strength of this Lich has far surpassed that of Northon, reaching another level.
