Chapter 122: Return to Camp

After dealing with the elven lieutenant, Rhodes did not stop the centaur under him, but ran in the direction he had come from.

It didn't take long for Rhodes to break out of the black clouds, and the light reappeared in front of Rhodes.

At this point, the elves in the rear found the elven lieutenant lying on the ground, and after being attacked by Rhodes and falling off his horse, the elven lieutenant was dead.

In the light of the fire, an elf came to the corpse of the elven lieutenant and removed the pendant from his body.

In the elf's hand, the eyelid on the pendant was completely closed, enclosing the eyeball in the center without any intention of opening.

In this pendant, there is the spiritual imprint of the court mage, which is only allowed to be used by the court mage and those he designates.

When the court mage gave the pendant to the lieutenant, he was allowed to use it alone, which led to the fact that when the elven lieutenant was killed, the rest of the elves around him could only hold the treasure and sigh.

Seeing this, the elf shook his head. Their mission to hunt down Rhodes was a failure.

Realizing this, the elves did not make any superfluous moves, but simply retreated towards the path they had come, and at the same time placed the elven lieutenant's body on their horses and took it away.

As the elves retreated, calm returned to the surroundings.

On the other side, because Rod didn't know the information about the treasure, he didn't slow down, and still drove the centaur towards the camp where he originally received the task.

As time passed, Rhodes was getting closer and closer to the camp, and in Rhodes' perception, there was no one in the rear to follow him, and after completing the mission, he was safely evacuated.

It didn't take long for Rhodes to arrive inside the camp.

After a gallop all the way, the sky was already bright.

In Rod's sight, several necromancers who were also heading to the camp appeared, and these necromancers were surrounded by a large number of undead creatures.

When Rhodes drove the centaur by, the necromancers were all wary of Rhodes next to him, and if Rhodes approached them again, they might attack Rhodes first.

Rhodes knew that the reason for their hostility towards him should be the clothes on their bodies.

What Rhodes was wearing was originally an elven swordsman's costume. This outfit, worn on Rod's body, coupled with the fact that his body was covered with blood, any necromancer who saw this dress would be wary of Rhodes.

At this time, Rod took out the black robe from the spatial ring and put it on, covering his entire body under the black robe.

Rhodes knew that in this mission, although he successfully captured the dwarven village and gained a lot of experience points, Rod did not get any loot because the court mage arrived in time.

And the reward that comes with this mission just makes up for it, providing Rhodes with a piece of loot.

When he first checked the quest information from the badge, Rhodes learned that he would be rewarded with a treasure for completing the quest.

It wasn't long before Rhodes arrived at the camp where he had been tasked before.

Inside the camp, there is still the necromancer who originally issued the mission, responsible for delivering the information related to the mission.

Seeing Rod, the necromancer took the initiative to greet him, and with an interested expression, he asked Rod, "How is it?" Have you accomplished your mission? ”

The necromancer's tone of inquiry was low, and it seemed that he was simply asking Rhodes this question, but Rhodes knew that the necromancer in front of him was obviously not just asking.

Without waiting for Rhodes to reply, the necromancer continued, "Oh, I seem to have confused your mission with the other person's mission, but it doesn't have much to do with it. ”

"Let me think about it, three days have passed since you took this task, if you feel that there is a problem with the task, then it is already too late at this time, there are only two ways in front of you, you can either use all means to complete this task, or you can only be chased by the crow to death."

"Perhaps, you can choose never to appear in the necromancer's realm, but what other region than Dia would welcome a necromancer?"

"If you had come to me a few days earlier and had a good discussion with me, maybe I would have shown mercy and transferred your mission, but now I can't do anything about it."

"Anyway, it's been three days, have you managed to complete this task? Or did you come back to me near the dwarven village, spent a few days exploring, and found that you were no match at all? ”

Facing Rod, the necromancer in front of him quickly said a series of words, not giving Rhodes a chance to answer, but instead talking to himself, while the expression on his face kept changing.

Through the necromancer's words, Rhodes also learned some of the previous situation. The previous task was indeed a necromancer who deliberately switched a more difficult task to himself.

Rhodes realized that the task of destroying the dwarven village should have reached the official necromancer level.

If a normal necromancer wants to capture a dwarven village, according to the general method, either a large number of undead creatures are required, or the necromancer needs to be extremely skilled in spells to be able to attack the village head-on and retreat in time before reinforcements arrive.

The purpose of the necromancer's change of mission is to gain his own benefit in this way.

As long as the strength of the mages is similar, they will not attack each other easily, even if they are handled like this by the necromancer who issued the task, the rest of the necromancers will only hand over a sum of gold in exchange for a suitable task.

Whether it was before, or now, Rhodes could feel a threat from the necromancer in front of him, but it was not strong.

Due to the deterrence of ordinary undead creatures shown by the necromancer when receiving the task, in Rhodes's heart, he has completely regarded this necromancer as an existence of the official necromancer level, that is, a fourth-order necromancer.

However, through a series of behaviors of the necromancer at this time, Rhodes was uncertain about the true strength of the necromancer.

According to Rhodes' understanding, a formal necromancer is obviously able to gain greater benefits in battle, rather than entangled with these petty profits with an apprentice-level existence here.

Therefore, even if he becomes an official necromancer, if he blindly loots the interests of his apprentice, then his own strength is likely not to be much stronger.
