Chapter 1292 Witch
Sensing the sudden burst of mana fluctuations not far away, both Rhodes and Vera on the side were shocked.
The appearance of mana fluctuations, especially when Vera had just escaped not long ago, was not a good omen, and it was enough to keep the two of them fully vigilant.
"It's them!" Vera whispered: "It must be the enemies in the quiet city. They knew that I was fleeing along the upper reaches of the Millis River, so they sent people to pursue them."
"Those nasty elves really thought I was running away, so I'll let them taste my strength." Vera said angrily.
However, Rhodes raised his hand to stop Vera's actions: "You didn't clean up the area around the Milis River, did you?"
Vera nodded: "I think the intention to wipe out all the creatures near the river is too obvious, so I didn't do it. I just let the Lich lurk from the water to the quiet city."
Rhodes moved his gaze away and looked at the direction where the mana fluctuations came from: "That's right, it may not be the chasing enemy that caused this mana fluctuation, but it may also be other creatures, no matter what kind of creatures, It shouldn't be here at this time."
Mana fluctuations come from the use of magic. In addition to mages, some high-level animals also have good spellcasting abilities, which can cause strong mana fluctuations.
"Let's go, let's go and have a look."
With that said, Rhodes walked towards the forest where the mana fluctuations came, and Vera followed behind. The Lich was still lurking at the bottom of the river, and did not follow the two of them.
During the march, Rhode suddenly felt a sense of peeping in his heart. It seemed that he was being watched by some kind of creature, and his every move was watched by it.
Sensing the abnormality on his body, Rhodes continued to walk deeper into the forest without stopping.
After a while, a small wooden house appeared in the dense jungle.
Unlike the treehouses that elves like to build, the wooden house in front of me sits smoothly on the ground, with a scattered layer of thatch on the roof. Outside the wooden house, there are large areas of different types of mushrooms planted, the colors are extremely bright, and the soil has traces of freshly turned over.
"Master, have you smelled it?" Vera said solemnly, while Rhodes felt puzzled.
Due to the characteristics of the body itself, Rhodes at this time did not maintain the human form, and could not distinguish the surrounding smells. Hearing what Vera said,
Rhodes realized that he seemed to have overlooked something.
Fortunately, Rhodes at this time has mastered a variety of secret methods, including the aroma secret method that allows him to distinguish smells. Rhodes used it immediately, and in an instant, the perception of a mixture of various smells appeared in Rhodes' mind.
Rhode noticed that the smell around the wooden house, in addition to the indelible smell of blood, also had the unique smell of rotting corpses. For necromancers, this smell is the most familiar thing, why? It is also impossible to forget it.
"Do you know what's going on here?" Rhodes asked in a deep voice. The wooden house in front of him looked extremely strange, and it didn't look like those elves at all.
"I don't know. Also ask the master to release the cloud of death and erase everything here." Vera said hastily.
However, Rhodes did not do this. Looking at the wooden house in front of him, Rhodes seemed to think of something. The environment here made Rhodes guess the rank of the owner of the wooden house.
While Rhodes was observing the wooden house in front of him, the door of the wooden house slowly opened, and a woman in gray was walking out, dragging a huge cloth bag.
"You two have been watching there, or come over and help me?" A hoarse voice suddenly came from the front of the wooden house.
"...Master, is she talking about us?" Vera asked Rhodes in surprise.
Ignoring Vera on the side, Rhodes approached the wooden house first.
From the woman in gray, Rhodes could vaguely feel a threat, far less intense than when facing the giant dragon in the Kingdom of Dragons, but Rhodes still did not relax his vigilance, and the peeping eyes couldn't take effect on it. Her rank is at least above the fifth rank.
As the distance approached, the appearance of the woman in gray also completely appeared in Rhodes' sight. Her skin was loose and wrinkled and looked dead, with dark spots all over her face.
What concerned Rhodes the most was her eyes, where there was only darkness, no eyelids, no eyeballs, only a deep darkness, making it difficult for people to look away at a glance.
From her body, Rhodes could feel a burst of gaze. Obviously, she was looking at Rhodes at this time in her own unique way.
Similar to the gray-clothed old woman, Rhodes in the form of a skeleton also has no regular eyeballs. The soul fire in the eye sockets replaces the functions of various organs, allowing Rhodes to still see things outside, but he doesn't know The gray-clothed old woman in front of her saw Rhodes by what method.
Seeing the appearance of the gray-clothed old woman, Rhodes at this time also confirmed her rank.
Not only her appearance, whether it is the unique environment around the wooden house, or the abnormality that Rhodes vaguely perceives, all explain to Rhodes that the gray-clothed old woman in front of her is a high-ranking sorcerer. division.
The secret technique mastered by sorcerers makes them look bad in the eyes of other creatures, and they can even be called weird. Ordinary creatures have always tried their best to avoid getting involved with sorcerers. Like necromancers, sorcerers are a kind of Unknown symbol.
Since magicians originated from Bracada in the past, most magicians will also practice some practical spells while mastering the secret arts. Not much difference.
In order to avoid identity confusion, magicians living in the surface world have their own titles, witches and wizards. Like the gray-clothed old woman in front of me, she can even be called a witch. Of course, in the mouths of most ordinary creatures, this kind of title is not a kind of honor at all.
Different regions have different attitudes towards sorcerers. Bracada and Erasia have never welcomed the arrival of sorcerers. Brakada expelled the sorcerers in the territory, and Erasia directly executed the sorcerers whose identities were exposed. division.
Only Eri welcomes the arrival of the sorcerer, and the sorcerer can live in Eri openly, which is also a sight that is difficult to see in other regions.
The elves in Eli have always been very tolerant of the creatures that come to this dense forest. Whether it is human beings or alien creatures in the eyes of other creatures, they can all settle in the dense forest. No force will allow the existence of necromancers.
