  Chapter 77 Exploring the Mansion II

After taking the book next to him, Rhodes took it After double-checking and confirming the book's content, Rhodes put it down.

This book, like the previous one, contains a lot of spell knowledge, the difference is that the knowledge recorded in this book is more shallow. Although the whole book is filled with various kinds of knowledge, in terms of the importance of knowledge, it is completely inferior to the original one.

If the original book, the content recorded in it corresponds to the intermediate level four elements magic, this book has only reached the primary level. There is still no spell in the book.

At this point, Rhodes realized that the mayor's spell should be recorded in a special book, and that book should be carried by the mayor.

The mayor obviously won't leave the magic book that records all his spells here. If Rhodes does not choose to attack the mayor after entering the mansion, but instead searches for items inside the mansion, once that magic book Being found by Rhodes, the mayor has undoubtedly fully exposed his cards.

As for these other books, although a lot of spell knowledge is recorded in the book, these are only the most basic of spells, and they are only of great help to apprentices and to the powerful undead mage. , will not have much effect.

The Mayor couldn't carry all these magic books with him, and it wouldn't matter if they were discovered by Rhodes. So the mayor left the books here.

Putting the book aside, Rhodes picked up the mayor's manuscript from the table and started flipping through it.

The manuscript records the mayor's understanding and thinking about various spells, which is somewhat similar to what was recorded in the previous books, but more complicated. Write it down, organize it, and transcribe it in the spell book.

Rhodes put down the manuscript in his hand, and at the same time rummaged under the table. After confirming that there were no hidden compartments, he put his eyes on the bookshelf at the back.

Rhodes went to the bookshelf behind him, took a book from it, and started flipping through it quickly. After taking a few glances and confirming the type of books, Rhodes sorted the books and put them on the table.

The books on the bookshelf were taken off by Rhodes one by one and put on the table, but there are also many books that Rhodes put back into the bookshelf after reading them.

After finishing all the books on the bookshelf, there are several books on the table in front of Rhodes. Rhodes is divided into several stacks according to their types,

Among them, the stack with the largest number, these books are roughly the same in style, but the contents recorded in them are completely different.

The reason Rhodes grouped these books into a stack is because they are magic books that the rest of the undead mage apprentices have used.

The spells recorded in these spellbooks are very messy, Rhodes checked them carefully, and from the previous records of the spellbooks, these spellbooks belong to different apprentices, and most of them are from the same The Magic Academy.

Rhodes realized that these magic books from different apprentices had only one reason for them to appear in the mayor's study, that is, their owners died in the hands of the mayor for some reason.

After learning the magic written in the book, the mayor put these magic books on the bookshelf as spills of war.

Since each apprentice has a different spell, the mayor learned their spell after killing these apprentices. Because of this, the mayor can master all kinds of messy magic.

Rhodes flipped these magic books to the back, and all the locations where the magic was supposed to be recorded were torn off, leaving only a mutilated fracture.

At this time, Rhodes took a few more magic books, turned to the back of the book, and found that they were all like this, with a different number of pages torn from the back. So Rhodes didn't try again for the remaining spellbooks in the stack.

Rhodes realized that since the mayor knew that leaving spells would leave a weak spot, he dared to put all these magic books here, obviously not afraid that Rhodes could learn spells through these magic books. Therefore, in these magic books, except for some basic knowledge, there is no spell.

Rhodes sighed after realizing he couldn't learn spell from the mayor.

Rhodes picked up one of the other books and began to read.

Written by the mayor himself, this book records the life of the mayor. The mayor seemed to attach great importance to this book and put it in a separate column on the bookshelf.

According to the records in the book, the mayor was originally just an apprentice of the Undead Spell Academy. After some encounters, he obtained a low-level bone vine, and after reaching the Second Rank, he applied to the Academy to come here. where, while practicing spell, cultivate bone vines.

Rhodes read the book carefully. According to what is written in the book, the mayor has been in the town for many years, and has dealt with many such apprentice attacks before.

Because of the existence of bone vines, the mayor can survive every attack, and even kill the apprentices who come to get their magic book.

Among them, the most dangerous one was dealing with an apprentice who mastered the disguised Dafa. The book details the process of the town mayor's battle with him.

The apprentice entered the mansion by disguising Dafa and came to the mayor's side, but because he didn't have a powerful spell, when he was away from the mayor's side, he only released a few magic dive arrows. Can kill the mayor, but seriously injured, and was finally killed by the mayor controlled by the skeleton warrior.

Apart from this , there were also many battles with other apprentices, and the only one who survived was the mayor.

In the last few pages of the book, the mayor wrote a lot of speculations about the possibility of war, as well as some thoughts of the mayor.

After reading the book, Rhodes has learned a lot about the life of the mayor.

It's a pity that the mayor's body has been destroyed by bone vines. If not, Rhodes can make it into a higher rank undead creature with these soul crystals in his hand.

At this point, the last book that Rhodes had taken down from the bookshelf had not been read by Rhodes.

Rhodes picked up the book, which was also handwritten by the mayor and recorded some of the habits of bone vines.

The book records more about the mistakes the mayor made when cultivating bone vines, as well as some experiences that may be used. It does not record the weaknesses of bone vines and the evaluation of its combat capability at all.

By reading this book, Rhodes will have read all the books that Rhodes had taken out earlier.

There are still a lot of books on the bookshelf. They are all pure spell knowledge. The importance of knowledge is different. For Rhodes, these books are of little use.

Rhodes continued to search the study room, trying to find some hidden organs, but in the end was not able to do so.

Out of the door, Rhodes continues to look for the next room.

On a corner of the second floor, Rhodes entered an unlocked room.

The inside of the room is filled with a bloody smell, but it has dissipated a lot by this time. The house was full of dark red blood, and there were many utensils used for disposing of corpses on the surrounding tables.

Observing the environment in this room, Rhodes knew that this should be the main location where the mayor created the undead creatures.

At this time, in Rhodes' perception, the death energy in the room is relatively strong. Although it is not as good as the location of the bone vine, it is already much better than other locations in the mansion. many.

Rhodes concentrated attention completely perceiving the source of the death energy around him. According to the guidance of his perception, Rhodes came to the center of the room and took out a soul crystal from a dark space under his feet.

Compared to the ghost crystal in the Rhodes space ring, the ghost crystal in Rhodes' hands is not that big, and even the ghost crystal in the vampire tomb is not comparable. Can provide death energy.

Rhodes put the soul crystal into the space ring and continued to explore the room, but found no valuable items, Rhodes could only exit the room.

Continuing to search the second floor, Rhodes came to the mayor's living room after the ghost once again slammed the locked door open.

Entering the room, Rhodes rummaged around, and carefully inspected all the places around where items could be placed.

In the wardrobe, except for a few black robes, there are no other styles of clothing, and the mayor obviously does not re-dress.

Rhodes opened the locker on the side, and there were a lot of gold coins inside. In addition, there were some gems. Under the light of the fire, the surface of the gems was shining rays of light.

Rhodes put the belongings in the space ring and continued to search, but found nothing.

The treasure-like item Rhodes had hoped for was not found in the room. If it is a treasure that can be used in battle, the mayor will obviously bring them with him.

After realizing this, Rhodes didn't look for it any more. There were still several rooms on the second floor of the mansion. Rhodes quickly opened it to check and felt that there were no items of high value. Rhodes Exit it directly.

At this point, Rhodes had already explored the interior of the mansion. Except for some property, Rhodes didn't get anything, and some simple gold coins were not very useful for Rhodes at this time.

Since the mansion had been searched, Rhodes stopped staying, but held the torch in his hand and began to set the entire mansion on fire.

The location of the bone vine is downstairs, but in order to set the whole mansion on fire, Rhodes first set the second floor on fire. On the way, Rhodes entered every room that Rhodes had searched. , ignite the item in it.

Rhodes walked down the stairs, and the flames burned down the stairs to the first floor.

After going down to the first floor, Rhodes was still the same as before, setting the rooms that he had been to before, one after another on fire.

After Rhodes had done these things, the entire mansion was on fire, and the fire grew more and more intense.

Arriving at the door of the room where the bone vines were located, Rhodes didn't try to enter the room, but just wanted to set the surrounding items on fire.

Rhodes knew that the bone vine had recovered a lot after swallowing the mayor, and the cane that had been cut off also recovered. Rattan's attack.

Just as the torch in Rhodes' hands was about to touch the door, Rhodes had a keen sense of danger.

At this moment, in Rhodes' line of sight, a cane came towards him at high speed, and Rhodes hurriedly dodged.

Rhodes stepped back a distance, and even though Rhodes was now a little farther from the room, the rattan was still calling towards Rhodes.

Rhodes took out the long sword from the space class and faced the blowing rattan. But the rattan ignored the weapon in Rhodes' hands, and directly wrapped around the torch that Rhodes was holding.

The rattan quickly pulled the torch back, and when the rattan contracted, the huge force generated made Rhodes' body unstable, and Rhodes had to let go.

The rattan pulls the torch into the interior of the room, knocking it out with a few hits.

At this point, Rhodes realized that the rattan had grown significantly in length.

Although the strength of the bone vine has improved, it has not made a qualitative change in the overall strength of the bone vine. Having lost the mayor's spell, in the face of Rhodes' strategy of igniting the mansion, Bonevine still has no way to deal with the surrounding flames.

Although the torch in Rhodes' hands was taken away by Bonevine, but because of the flames everywhere, Bonevine's behavior is only in Final Struggle.

Rhodes came not far behind, where it was already burning.

Using the fire on the ground, Rhodes rekindled a torch, returned to its original position, and set the ground on fire.

Although there is still some distance from the room where the bone vine is located, Rhodes doesn't care. Since the whole mansion will be on fire, when the time comes the flame will naturally be close to the location where the bone vine is located.

Then Rhodes stepped back. When Rhodes came to the gate of the mansion, the interior of the mansion was already full of flames.

The flames reflected the entire mansion as a scarlet. When he searched the interior of the room, Rhodes deliberately opened all the windows inside the room. At this time, when he exited the mansion, Rhodes did not forget to open the door of the mansion.

This action by Rhodes caused the flames to burn rapidly, and thick smoke rose from the interior of the mansion, like the original black cloud.

It will take some time for the entire mansion to be burnt down, so Rhodes did not take care of the interior of the mansion for the time being, but walked towards the corpse of the previous undead mage.

At this moment, outside the mansion, the black clouds in the sky completely dissipated, Rhodes crossed the courtyard where he had fought, and at a glance, he saw the corpse of the undead mage not far away.

Rhodes came to the undead mage's body and began to search for items on him.

After searching, Rhodes found a magic book, and found a lot of gold coins and a high-quality soul crystal from the pocket of the undead mage. In addition, Rhodes also found a pendant exuding death energy from the body of the undead mage.

Rhodes put the gold coin and the revenant crystal into the space ring, then took the pendant in his hand and began to examine it.
