After checking the attributes of this pendant, Rhodes took the [Dark Shelter] with him.

Since the current Rhodes is still only a second-order, and the rank is still a swordsman, which does not belong to the profession of the Cemetery series, therefore, although he brought this pendant on his body, Rod did not get any hints, nor did he have any perception, so he obviously could not use it yet.

However, Rod is not worried, due to the influence of spiritualism, all the ranks that Rod can choose when he advances are locked in the cemetery department, even if Rod wants to choose a profession in other departments, he can't do it.

At this point, Rhodes set his sights on the necromancer's magic book.

Rhodes quickly flipped the spellbook to the back, and since Rod didn't get any spells in the mayor's internal study, Rod wanted to confirm the status of the spellbook.

After reading it for a while, Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief, there were a lot of magic records in the magic book, and Rhodes quickly flipped through them.

"By reading the magic book, you learned the second-order spells [Fire Demon Wall] and [Fireball Technique]."

"[Fire Demon Wall Lv1]: Second-order fire magic. Consumes 12 mana, ignites a wall of fire that damages creatures that pass by, and the wall of fire deals 20 base damage for 30 seconds. Experience required to level up is 40. ”

"[Fireball Lv1]: Second-order fire-based magic. Consumes 14 mana and unleashes fireballs to attack enemies for 25 base damage. Experience required to level up: 20. ”

In the spell book, except for these two spells, the rest are magic that Rhodes has mastered before.

Rhodes left the necromancer's body in its place and ignored it for the time being. Rhodes has more important matters to attend to.

Before coming to the mansion, the interior of the mansion at this time was full of flames, and the flames almost engulfed the entire mansion, and before Rod could get close to the mansion, he felt a wave of heat coming.

The flames continued to burn, and it wasn't long before the top floor of the mayor's mansion began to collapse.

Due to the collapse of the top floor, flames inside the mansion appeared directly in front of Rod's eyes, and thick smoke rose into the sky from the collapsed position.

At this time, although part of the mansion collapsed, the fire had not yet completely spread, and Rhodes was not in a hurry, so he waited outside the mansion.

If the flames are not stopped, the entire interior of the mansion will be burned, even the bone vine will not be spared, which is the method that Rhodes used to deal with the bone vine.

With his own undead creatures, Rhodes watched as the mansion gradually engulfed in flames.

It didn't take long for the fire to finally come to the mansion as the fire expanded further.

Due to the collapse of many parts of the mansion, the room where the bone vine was located was also affected.

The ceiling of the room where the vine was located cracked, and the flaming pieces of wood fell from the top floor of the room, and the rattans dodged around to avoid being hurt by the blocks.

Wooden blocks fall into the interior of the room, with a lot of flames attached to them, and bone vines need to dispose of them in order to avoid burning inside the room.

A rattan sticks out, rolls up the block, and throws it into the passage.

As a result of touching the wooden block, the rattan was covered with flames. After throwing the wooden block, the rattan slapped the original wooden block one after another, and the flames on the rattan were extinguished.

Although this rattan extinguished the flames, the original gray-white rattan was covered with scorched black marks at this time, and it was obviously difficult to continue to use it.

The entire mansion was collapsing, and there were such wooden blocks all around it, and although the bone vines had disposed of them, they had also lost a few rattans.

At this moment, a huge stone fell and pressed against a rattan that could not be dodged. A rattan on the side quickly rolled it up, trying to press the stone against the gap overhead.

With this move, the bone vine apparently wanted the stone to plug the crack in the ceiling caused by the collapse of the top floor of the mansion.

Just after the rattan rolled up the stone, the wood with the flame attached to it fell again and smashed on the rattan. The flames burned on the vine, but the bone vine ignored it, and still let the vine exert its strength, trying to plug the crack in its head.

The stone was pressed to the position of the notch by the rattan, but because it could not be fixed, and the weight of the stone itself continued to be crooked, because the strength of one rattan alone could not do it, the bone vine stretched out multiple rattans, trying to press the wooden block into the gap.

I don't know if it was due to the flames or the mansion itself, but the crack became bigger because the bone vine forcibly blocked the gap with stones.

At the crack, some burning wooden blocks fell.

At this time, the flames in the passage had already burned to the room where the bone vine was, and the bone vine had nothing to do, facing so many flames, the bone vine had nothing to do.

Outside the mansion, Rhodes listened to the sound coming from inside, and knew that the bone vine had been damaged a lot by the flames.

In front of Rod, the door of the mansion fell to the side because it could not withstand the flames, and the door was charred black.

Rod understood that in the face of such a big fire, the bone vine could not hold out for long.

For a creature like the bone vine, although its strength is relatively strong among creatures of the same level, it also has a lot of disadvantages due to its own limitations.

At this time, the bone vine was being burned by the flames, but Rod did not show a relaxed expression at all, and Rod knew that if he wanted to get experience points, then he still needed to kill the bone vine himself.

Although Rhodes set fire to the mayor's mansion, it doesn't mean that Rhodes can gain experience points for burning creatures.

The flames have no specific source of damage, and if the bone vine is burned to death by the flames, Rhodes will not get any experience points.

At this time, the flames caused the entire mansion to start burning, but Rhodes was not in a hurry, but waited for the action of the bone vine.

After devouring the mayor, the strength of the bone vine has increased again, so the bone vine will not be burned to death by the flames in a short period of time. No matter what kind of creature it is, it will struggle wildly before it dies, let alone a bone vine.

Rhodes was waiting for the moment when the bone vine would struggle with all his might.

In Rod's perception, there was a special vibration on the ground, which came from inside the mansion and reached Rod's feet.

Time passed slowly, and in Rhodes' sight, due to the burning of the flames, coupled with the violent struggle of the bone vines inside, the originally tall mansion collapsed partially, and the entire top floor seemed to shatter, revealing the flames inside.

Rhodes took a few steps back with the undead creatures to avoid being hit by falling blocks of wood and stone.

Since there was almost a vacancy above the entire mansion, after taking a few steps back, by the light of the surrounding fire, Rhodes also saw the rattan that was waving wildly in the sky above the mansion.

At this time, inside the mansion, the bone vine allowed all the rattans to resist the collapsing objects and extinguish the flames around them.

Until now, Rhodes is still waiting.

Although it seems that the scene of the bone vine at this time is very unfavorable, Rod knows that the actual combat ability of the bone vine has not decreased much, once he comes to the bone vine, he will be directly killed by the bone vine, and it is not yet the time to make a move.

Therefore, Rod still needs to wait for a while, and only when the bone vine is weakest will Rod enter it and kill the bone vine.

Currently, Rhodes has a total of 7 mana.

After the battle with the mayor, as well as the process of searching the mansion and waiting for the flames to burn, because a lot of time has passed, Rhodes relied on his own mana recovery, coupled with the effect of the magic talisman to restore some of Rod's mana.

Although Rod used a few mana points to light the flame, there was still some left, and the mana at this time was enough for Rhodes to release a fire-resisting thaumaturgy on himself.

For fire spells cast by mages, fire thaumaturgy reduces the damage dealt by the spell and prevents the flames from burning on the body.

For ordinary flames, fire-resisting thaumaturgy can produce extremely good results, and can completely block it. Since the flames cannot burn on Rod, as long as Rhodes kills the Bone Vine before the end of the fire thaumaturgy, he will not take much damage.

However, Rhodes only had one chance to use the fire thaumaturgy, and if Rod did not kill the bone vine during the duration of the fire thaumaturgy, then this opportunity was lost forever.

Therefore, Rod needs to choose an excellent time to make a move.

As for handing over the opportunity to the vampire, Rhodes had also thought about it, but at such a critical moment, Rhodes was worried that the vampire might not know the situation or plan to take action himself.

In the room where the bone vine was, the rattan used the stones that fell around it to form a barrier, hoping to stop the flames from burning in this way.

As the entire mansion began to collapse, the stones above it fell one after another, and the seemingly good defense formed by the bone vines did not have any effect at this time, and collapsed to the side.

There was no way, the bone vine had to extinguish these flames. The flames burned through the crack in the head of the bone vine, and under the influence of the flames, a large number of rattans were burned black, and the bone vine had lost a lot of health.

If the mayor is still by the side of the bone vine, with just one fire thaumaturgy, the bone vine can be completely unafraid of the surrounding flames, and when the time comes, whether it is to extinguish the flames or directly create a barrier, it will be no problem for the bone vine.

The vitality of the bone vine is tenacious, and even in this situation, it still does not give up, still using the rattan to whip the flames on the surrounding objects, trying to extinguish the surrounding flames.

However, due to the sheer size of the fire, all the objects around the bone vines, as well as the walls of the upper floors that had not yet completely collapsed, were still in flames.

These actions of the bone vine could not affect the burning mansion. Since the vine could not leave this place, and because it was inside one of the rooms, it was destined to die in the flames.

As the flames burned, the entire mansion collapsed further, and at this time, in Rod's perception, the movement of the rattan inside the mansion seemed to have stopped, and there was no further struggle.

The sound of the rattan slapping against the flames was now completely gone, and even the vibration was no longer emitted.

Outside the mansion, Rhodes sensed all this, but he didn't make any moves, but just waited outside the mansion.

Rhodes knew that an undead creature similar to the bone vine, with the increase in strength, had initially gained self-awareness, although the intelligence was not high, but in the case of the original battle with himself, the bone vine knew that there were still enemies who had not appeared.

At this point, the shaking inside the mansion stopped completely. Although he stopped, he stopped directly without warning, which made Rod notice a lot of abnormalities.

Rod realizes that the bone vine stops moving precisely to lure himself out.

Therefore, Rhodes still waited outside the mansion.

It wasn't long before the tremors re-emerged from inside the mansion.

As the roof of the mansion collapsed, the rattan swung wildly in the air in Rod's line of sight, and then approached the walls around the mansion, trying to knock the entire mansion down from the center.

However, due to the lack of strength of the bone vine, coupled with the fact that the flames had been scorching the rattan that was exerting its strength, the bone vine finally failed.

The rattan retracted inward, and then began to beat the flames around it again, and the vibrations were noticeably smaller, far less than they had been at the beginning.

At this point, Rhodes knew it was time to make a move.

Applying fire thaumaturgy to himself, Rhodes rushed through the gate towards the interior of the mansion.

Passing over the fallen stones on the ground, Rhodes quickly advanced, and flames appeared at Rhodes' feet, but they could only burn outside the black robe, unable to do any damage to Rhodes.

Due to the limited duration of the fire thaumaturgy, Rhodes could not afford to delay for a moment. After entering the mansion, Rhodes quickly rushed out of the room where the bone vine was.

At this time, Rod found that the original passage had been completely blocked by the collapsed object, and Rod could not enter through here, so he could only find another direction.

Rod quickly rushed towards the second floor. At this point, the duration of the fire thaumaturgy was less than half.

Sweat left on Rod's head, and even though the flames were shielded from the flames, the heat generated from the interior of the mansion still made Rhodes feel a burst of heat due to the fire.

The heat wave spread through the interior of the mansion, and even Rhodes, who had applied the fire thaumaturgy, could hardly bear the heat, let alone the bone vines located in the room.

Rhodes quickly reached the stairs on the second floor and hurried upstairs. The staircase, which had been intact, was now crumbling and covered with flames.

There were falling rocks all over Rhodes' feet, but Rhodes paid no attention to them.

At this moment, a piece of wood burning with flames fell from the top of Rod's head, and Rod dodged to the side, dodging without stopping, and continued to rush in one direction.

Originally, when exploring the entire mansion, Rod roughly compared the overall situation of the mansion, and Rod also knew the location of the upstairs and downstairs rooms, so the location where Rod rushed was the room where he had obtained the Revenant Crystal before.

In this process, Rhodes, who was inside the mansion, saw that the top of the original mansion had collapsed a lot at this time, and on the second floor, he could directly see the starlight overhead.

Coming to the location of the room, through the large hole that collapsed here, Rod saw the bone vine downstairs at a glance.

Right at Rod's feet, the original rattan was powerlessly whipping towards the surrounding flames, but it didn't have much effect.

In Rod's line of sight, the wall on which the bone vine was leaning had collapsed, leaving the body of the bone vine exposed. The bone vines pushed the surrounding rocks around, but to no avail.

On the side, a large number of stones generated by the collapse pressed on the surrounding rattans, coupled with the surrounding flames, the bone vines at this time had no way to deal with them, just fell here and waited for death.

At this time, the fire thaumaturgy on Rhodes' body was almost over, so Rhodes didn't wait any longer, took out the iron sword from the space ring, and then jumped down directly at the bone vine.

The blade pierced into the body of the bone vine, killing the bone vine in an instant.
