  Chapter 56 The Town

Following the chosen road, Rhodes took the vampire all the way.

On the road, except for the sound of footsteps on the ground and the sound of the surrounding wind, there is no sound.

In the territory of Eri, Rhodes is also advancing with vampire in this way, but there is still a little noise around, whether it is birds, Insect's chirping, or the sound of biological activities, at this time all around is a piece of noise. silence.

Rhodes wasn't in a hurry, just kept going. Since there aren't any large creatures around, Rhodes can't do it if he wants to.

Fortunately, along this path, Rhodes has found the way forward, so don't worry about getting lost.

…………

This is a quiet town.

The town is not far from the Dia border. Due to the long distance, the Dark Sky Curtain, which shrouded the sky of the City of Sorrows all day long, has disappeared without a trace here, and is replaced by continuous stratus clouds. It seems that in the territory of Dia, it is rare to see the sun. .

There are not many people in the town, most of them are some elderly people.

For some reason, the young and middle-aged people in the town have long chosen to flee this place and go to the nearby City of Sorrows. Especially after hearing that the undead spell Academy is recruiting a large number of apprentices, everyone fantasizes about being able to join the Academy and become a powerful undead mage after learning spell in the Academy.

The departure of people one after another made the already empty town seem even more deadly.

In the town, an old man is basking in the sun doing nothing. Judging from the sad look on his face, his mood was not calm at this time.

Suddenly, the old man's eyes looked towards the street not far away. At this time, two black robed men were walking towards him on the street.

As if thinking of something, the old man showed a very frightened expression, but he didn't dare to make any movement on his body, he just watched the black robed man walk in front of him.

A black robed man in front also noticed this and lowered the hood on his head to reveal his original face, which was Rhodes.

It turned out that, following the road, Rhodes and vampire finally entered the town.

As soon as he entered the town, Rhodes noticed something unusual. Due to the Soul Evocation Technique, in Rhodes' perception, the interior of the town is full of death energy. The scope of this death energy is extremely large, and the entire town is caged in it.

Rhodes understands that there must be something going on inside the town, but is only guessing what happened, not sure.

At this point, seeing the expression of the old man in front of him, Rhodes was clearly sure of something.

Rhodes speculates that the lords here, anticipating the war to begin, began to make the town's inhabitants into undead creatures. Later, due to the coming of war, even if you do not choose to join the war, you can exchange undead creatures for a lot of gold coins.

Judging from the death energy shrouded in the town, the lord of the town has been transforming undead creatures for a while, and Rhodes has some ideas about this.

At the same time, Rhodes realized that some time had been spent following the Business Group, plus another nearly a day and a half in the woods. The news of the war is no longer a secret. As long as people near the border area go to the Thief Guild to collect information, they can judge the occurrence of the war.

Because of this, many people have started to move.

Rhodes realizes that his progress is a little slow. If he can't get enough EXP in the early stage of the war, it will not be so good when the high-level creatures in Eri take action. Opportunity now.

Coming to this town, Rhodes originally wanted to quickly ask someone to find a way to get to the City of Sorrows, but after confirming some circumstances, Rhodes had a new idea.

Without immediately looking towards the old man in front of him, Rhodes looked towards the old man all around the town after putting down his hood, as if to confirm something, and finally looked towards the old man.

Rhodes asked the old man, "Where is the interior council in the town? Or, where is the mayor's mansion?"

The old man swallowed and trembled. He raised his hand, extended the hand, and pointed towards a tall building in the town.

Rhodes nodded towards him, then looked towards and walked in the direction the old man pointed.

Just after Rhodes left, the old man stayed where he was, without any movement for a while.

Thinking back to the young face under the hood, the old man couldn't help but feel a sense of shock in his heart. From the looks of it, the black robed man just now was not even as old as the grandson who went to the City of Sorrows, but This kind of power on his body, the old man has also seen it on the mayor.

Although Rhodes only asked the old man a question in the previous conversation, the experience brought by the years allowed the old man to find something unusual in Rhodes' demeanor.

Thinking of what happened in the small town recently, the old man fell into deep fear for a while, and wanted to go back to the house to pack up and escape, but due to his old age and frailty, even if he left here, he could Where to flee to?

The fear dissipated, replaced by a deep despair.

…………

Rhodes walked towards the position pointed by the old man and observed it as he walked. The town is large and the number of houses is acceptable, but from the feedback from reconnaissance, Rhodes knows that many of the houses have been abandoned for a long time.

The actual number of people in the entire town is smaller than Rhodes originally thought.

Following the road, Rhodes came to a mansion. Along the way, this mansion is the largest building in the town.

At this time, the guards at the entrance of the mansion were obviously stunned when they saw Rhodes coming to the front of the mansion.

The guard obviously did not expect that someone would stand directly at the door of the mansion, ready to scold, but noticed Rhodes and Vampire's outfits.

The guard seemed to remember something, swallowed what he was about to say, and directly opened the main door of the mansion, and then did not say to lead the way for Rhodes, but ran directly into the mansion.

Seeing the guards open the front door of the mansion, Rhodes didn't do anything, but just stood at the door and waited.

Rhodes knew that the guard had seen that he was an undead mage earlier, and turned to the mayor. At this point, Rhodes is waiting for the mayor's response.

Originally, Rhodes noticed something unusual in the town after entering the town. After obtaining some information through reconnaissance, Rhodes changed his original plan and planned to come to the mansion to conduct a test to see how the mayor would respond to him.

In the process of responding to the temptation, if the mayor is not careful, some weak spots will be exposed.

If the mayor is weak, Rhodes can find an opportunity to kill him and harvest the rest of the undead.
