User's body broke through the collapsed guardrails behind him and fell from the top of the tower.
Before falling, because the shield was knocked away, User saw Rhodes' indifferent eyes again.
After hitting User, Rhodes tried his best to restrain his forward pace, and finally stopped at the edge of the watchtower.
In the air, User didn't know when to let go of the weapon he was holding tightly in his hand, waving his arms randomly in the air, but it was all in vain. Realizing that he was about to die, User seemed to have thought of something in his heart, and his face was full of regret.
The last thought in User's mind somehow turned into a picture. It was Rhodes' indifferent eyes standing on the edge of the watchtower after he shot him down.
At the top of the tower, watching User falling, Rhode suppressed his beating heart and recalled that the key to defeating User was undoubtedly to paralyze User with magic, making him unable to move or exert force. Only then did he see the right moment. machine, knocking him off the top of the tower.
Rhodes had no mana on his body, and the reason why he was able to release this spell was because he used the spell scroll obtained from his apprentice, Thunderbolt and Lightning.
Previously, Rhodes found this spell scroll from the apprentice's space ring, but Rhodes had not used it until now.
Thunderbolt is a second-level spell, and its basic damage is similar to that of the first-level spell: Magic Arrow, but the mental attribute has a higher bonus to Thunderbolt, and Thunderbolt also has a paralysis effect and a shorter duration.
In a normal battle, since the paralysis effect lasts for a short time, it is difficult to have much effect, but at this time, this effect has become Rhodes' magic weapon to win.
Since there was only this scroll, Rhodes knew that he only had one chance to try, and he had to let this spell hit User's body in order to succeed.
If used directly, the thunderbolt and lightning will be blocked by User's shield, which will only paralyze the hand holding the shield. It will not have much impact on the strength of the entire body. Even if Rhodes chooses to collide, he will be blocked by User head-on. , or just avoid it.
Therefore, Rhodes chose to throw the gold coins first and let User raise the shield, so that the thunderbolt could hit User's body. The entire lower body was paralyzed, making User unable to use his legs, and was eventually knocked down by Rhodes.
Through this period of understanding of User, Rhodes understood that after he threw an object at User's head, no matter what he threw, User would raise his shield to resist it, which gave Rhodes the opportunity to use thunderbolt. Lightning strikes his chance.
At this time, User fell to the ground, making a huge noise, and lost his life instantly.
After confirming the increase in experience points through the system, Rhodes turned back and walked down the stairs of the observation tower without looking at the fallen User.
On the side, everyone who was fighting vampires also heard the loud noise, but because they had to deal with the vampire in front of them, they didn't pay much attention to the direction of the sound.
At the edge of the battlefield, the blue-robed mage who had been using magic to control the battlefield situation obviously noticed the loud noise, which reminded him of something and looked over there.
Since the duration of the first spell has expired, after re-applying the weakening spell to the vampire, the blue-robed mage came to the place where User fell based on the previous sound.
As the pace got closer and closer, the blue-robed mage apparently discovered something, and a surprised expression appeared on his face.
In front of the blue-robed mage's eyes, the leader's body fell to the ground.
"impossible… "
The situation seen before the eyes made it difficult for the blue-robed mage to believe, but the real situation was like this, and the blue-robed mage had to believe that the leader would die in such a way.
The blue-robed mage remembered that there were only two travelers in the team, one of whom was the vampire that he and other members were dealing with. According to the situation on the battlefield, the vampire obviously cannot hold out for long. The blue-robed mage believes that under the siege of himself and other members of the business group, the vampire can be killed soon.
The group leader, who never showed up, was undoubtedly dealing with another traveler. The blue-robed mage had a deep understanding of the stability of the group leader, Yose. Even if he tried his best, he could only draw a tie with the group leader.
At this time, the blue-robed mage obviously couldn't associate the former stable leader with the rotten meat in front of him.
Before the blue-robed mage could feel sad about this, a chill emerged in his heart.
If the group leader was already powerful enough, then how powerful was the other passenger who killed him.
The blue-robed mage didn't dare to think too much and glanced in the direction of the vampire in the field. At this time, the remaining members of the business group surrounded the vampire. The vampire once again used bat transformation. All members were now dealing with the bats in the air.
Seeing this situation, the blue-robed mage made a decision in his heart. The blue-robed mage took off the space ring from the dead captain's hand, put it on his own hand, and then returned to the battlefield.
Seeing that the other members of the business group were concentrating on dealing with the bats in the air, the blue-robed mage did not explain his findings to any member of the business group, but returned to the carriage without saying a word.
The blue-robed mage quickly opened the secret compartment inside the carriage, put some scroll-like items into his pockets, then pulled off a large piece of cloth from the side, and put some valuable items and some books recording knowledge into it. .
The blue-robed mage carried the package on his back and did not choose to put the space ring in it.
Even though he had just obtained the space ring from the corpse of the group leader, the blue-robed mage knew the dangers he might encounter and did not choose to spend mana to activate the space ring. He could only carry the package on his back.
The blue-robed mage came outside the carriage, looked at the members around him who were still dealing with the bats, and said a few words secretly in his mind. Then he came to the front of the carriage, took out the dagger from his pocket, and wanted to cut the ropes that bound the horses. .
After trying it for a while, the blue-robed mage could only helplessly discover that the ropes used to secure the horses were obviously specially treated to withstand the traction brought by the horses, and were very tough in appearance.
With just a dagger and the blue-robed mage's own strength, it was obviously impossible to cut it open in a short time.
Seeing this situation, the blue-robed mage directly cut open his palm with a dagger. Seeing the blood overflowing from the palm of his hand, the blue-robed mage smeared the blood on the dagger.
As soon as the blood came into contact with the dagger, a red light emitted from the dagger. As the blood increases, the red light gradually deepens. With the help of the strange red light on the dagger, the blue-robed mage cut the originally tough rope without much effort.
He got on his horse and ignored the remaining members of the business group. The blue-robed mage drove his horse towards the forest.
And this scene happened to catch the eye of Rhodes who walked down the watchtower.
