When a hero is transformed into a death knight, he loses most of his positive emotions. Once transformed into a death knight, emotions such as joy, satisfaction, and pity no longer exist.
After the death knight is transformed, he will acquire spiritualism and spiritual marks on his own. The Death Knight can replace the Necromancer and transform his own undead creatures.
For a hero, after being transformed into a death knight, his attributes will not decrease, but his overall strength will be improved.
Therefore, many evil heroes, in order to gain stronger power, will actively transform themselves into death knights after mastering certain necromancy spells.
Since the death knight retains its thinking ability intact, to the necromancer, the death knight is more like a subordinate capable of performing tasks, rather than a simple undead creature.
Many times, the necromancer lets the death knight perform tasks remotely, so the death knight's independent judgment is particularly important.
A large part of determining the strength of a high-level necromancer depends on the number of death knights under his command.
But for Rhodes, the centaur leader in front of him would not obey his orders so easily. Rhodes could only force him to carry out his orders through spiritual imprints.
Rhodes planned to transform the centaur leader in front of him into a death knight, but it was difficult to do so based on Rhode's current level of spiritualism. Therefore, Rhodes needed to upgrade his level of spiritualism.
After spending 3 skill points, Rhodes upgraded his spiritualism to expert level.
(Expert level spiritualism: You have learned all the necromancy spells recorded in the classics, but you are still not satisfied. You start to search for the truth about death. You can create any kind of low-level undead creatures. Slightly reduce the number of places to awaken the dead. required mana.)
Under the influence of the achievement [Necromancer], Rhodes' spiritualism has reached the master level and can transform death knights.
At the same time, Rhodes also realized that he only needed to get 3 more skill points to upgrade the basics of spiritualism to the master level and obtain another achievement at the same time. By then, with the blessing of these two achievements, Rhodes' spiritualism can reach an extremely powerful level.
The death knight has its own will. Only when the transformation is successful, the transformer will first use the spiritual mark to control it. If this is not the case, the death knight will be difficult to control.
At this time, Rhodes turned his attention to the body of the centaur leader in front of him.
Under the influence of master-level spiritualism, Rhodes has mastered the method of creating a death knight.
Rhodes did not move the centaur leader's body, but directly took out multiple soul crystals from the space ring.
Rhodes took the Revenant Crystals in his hand, carefully selected them, and kept seven of the Revenant Crystals in his hands. The remaining Revenant Crystals were taken back into the space ring.
Rhodes placed six of the dead soul crystals at certain intervals around the centaur leader. Viewed from above, the six dead soul crystals formed a hexagon, and the body of the centaur leader was placed In the very center of the hexagon.
Under Rhode's selection, the six soul crystals were of roughly the same purity, and all were of medium to high quality.
Rhodes began to use magic abilities around these dead soul crystals to induce death energy. The death energy released by the dead soul crystals intertwined with each other to form a special formation.
At this time, Rhodes still had the last Soul Crystal left in his hand, and this Soul Crystal was also the purest one among the Soul Crystals owned by Rhodes.
Arriving outside the magic circle, Rhodes cut the palm of his left hand with a weapon and dripped his blood on the six dead soul crystals at the edge of the magic circle.
As Rhodes' actions progressed, the magic circle of the transformation ceremony obviously underwent a special change. Through blood, Rhodes had some connection with these soul crystals.
Rhodes stepped into the formation and placed the last soul crystal in the center of the formation, where the centaur leader's body was.
As Rhodes loosened his clenched hand, the Revenant Crystal floated above the formation. The Revenant Crystal continued to rise upward for a certain distance, and then stopped in the air.
Rhodes walked out of the magic circle, and suddenly, a strange change began to occur inside the magic circle.
This thumb-sized soul crystal does not stay motionless in the air, but slowly rotates in one direction.
The death energy in the magic circle began to undergo some changes as the soul crystal rotated. In Rhode's perception, the death energy that originally escaped from the soul crystal now began to gather in large numbers around the centaur leader's body.
Rhodes looked into the magic circle. Although there seemed to be nothing unusual inside the magic circle, the transformation ritual had been activated by the dead soul crystal.
The transformation of death knights has always been a difficult act. Even if many necromancers have master-level spiritualism, they do not have the ability to transform death knights.
Since transforming a death knight requires a large amount of death energy, even if the necromancer consumes all his mana, it may not be possible. Therefore, the necromancer needs to use the undead crystal.
It is difficult to meet this level with a single Revenant Crystal. Therefore, multiple extremely high-quality Revenant Crystals are needed to form a special ritual circle to activate it.
Rhodes knew that according to the tips from the spiritualism, the person who activated the energy of the dead soul crystal in the magic circle should actually be the necromancer himself.
The necromancer who guides the magic circle must have a high level of wisdom and mystery. Rhodes currently cannot reach this level, so he can only use the highest quality undead crystal instead.
The blood that Rhodes painted on the soul crystal was a medium to establish a spiritual imprint with the centaur leader's corpse. Through this, Rhodes was able to control it after the transformation was successful.
After completing the ceremony arrangement, Rhodes asked the centaur leader to transform himself.
At this time, Rhodes came to the previous battlefield.
Rhodes had previously given orders to ghosts and vampires through his spiritual mark to drag the centaur corpses around them to a location, and the undead creatures had already complied.
Rhodes came to the place where these corpses were gathered, took out the remaining soul crystals from the space ring, and placed them in the middle of the corpses.
At this time, Rhodes has finished processing the corpses on the battlefield. He only needs to wait for them to be transformed to obtain a large number of undead creatures.
Looking at the centaur corpses around him, Rhodes knew that his overall strength could be greatly improved.
The vampire removed the body of a centaur, then lay down closest to the Soul Crystal, falling into a deep dormant state.
Rhodes came to the battlefield and sat down, letting the surrounding ghosts be on guard, and then began to meditate.
