environment
Inside the original passage, the surrounding mine wall is still hard. Although there are many cracks due to the explosion of death energy, it also needs to be dug by rod after the spell hit to clear a road.
As the passage slowly extends, the space that rod can move also begins to shrink, which brings him a lot of trouble. Due to the reduction of activity space, rod can't dig the mine wall with all his strength, so he can only rely on the effect of magic.
However, rod noticed that when he approached the position of the mother of the dead, the surrounding walls gradually became extremely loose, and even could be quickly broken without a spell. It seemed that before that, the walls here had been completely eroded by the energy of death.
After discovering this, rod was relieved. Although the whole mountain was shaking violently, it couldn't affect rod's action at this time.
Before that, rod had tried to absorb the surrounding death energy and add a little mana, but for some reason, the surrounding death energy was extremely repellent to rod's absorption. Even the death energy released by rod could not have any connection with rod.
Rod knew that this should also be the means of the mother of the dead, blocking her absorption of the energy of death around her. Therefore, rod should be more cautious about the use of mana.
Fortunately, Rowling followed up in time, and continued to cast magic, so that rod can concentrate on cleaning the road, to solve the problem of rod. If there is no Rowling behind, I'm afraid it won't be long before rod can only find a way out of here, and the mother of the dead can only be buried deep in this collapsed mine.
Fortunately, due to the long-term erosion of death energy, the front mine wall no longer needs to use magic to clean up, even a group of orcs can quickly do this.
The degree of erosion inside the mountain was beyond rod's expectation. It is reasonable to say that when the whole mountain began to collapse due to the explosion of death energy, it should have collapsed long ago. However, it seems that it can persist for a long time according to the appearance of surrounding things.
With the target already locked, rod doesn't need to adjust his direction. He just needs to move towards one position. Soon, rod came to the place where the perception came out, where the mother of the dead was.
With the firelight in Rowling's hands behind, rod also noticed the scene ahead.
In front of the relatively dark wall of the mine, it seems that there is also a flash of Mars. When rod approached, he noticed that these Mars are only illusory existence, reflected by something existing on the wall of the mine.
When it reached here, rod stopped his hand and reached out to take down the object that existed on the wall of the mine.
With rod's action, the death energy of the surrounding riots gradually stopped, and the shaking of the mountain began to decrease. Although there were still falling rocks, it could not affect rod at this time.
…………
[mother of the dead]
Quality: Treasure
Type: special props
Special attributes: 1. When making undead creatures, it can improve the quality of undead creatures to a certain extent and sublimate them. 2 complete control of a wide range of necromancer crystals.
…………
Through the information from the system, rod also confirmed that he was holding the mother of the dead he was looking for.
What drew rod's attention was that the mother of the dead already had her own consciousness and could transform the undead to defend and fight on her own, which was not mentioned by the system.
When he holds the mother of the dead in his hand, rod can even feel the unwilling consciousness in it, but it doesn't play any role. Once rod finds its position, no matter what it does, he can't get rid of the result.
The mother of the dead can essentially improve the quality of the undead creatures, and even does not need to consume the death energy of the necromancer himself. As long as there are enough undead crystals, the mother of the dead can directly extract the death energy to create the undead creatures.
Rod recalled that there are only a few ways to directly improve the quality of the undead. For the necromancer, being able to do this is tantamount to greatly enhancing his strength.
If there is no mother of the dead, the corpse of a second-order creature, even if the Necromancer's level of evocation is enough, it can only be converted into a second-order undead at most. Later, if you want to upgrade the level of the undead again, you can only rely on the accumulation of time.
However, after getting the mother of the dead, even the half Orc corpses that can't enter the level can be transformed into the third level undead without any restriction. As long as there are enough corpses, a large number of transformation can be carried out.
It can be said that as long as you get the mother of the dead, any necromancer can do something.
At this point, the effect of mother of the dead is very similar to another artifact in rod's memory, the cloak of the ghost king. It can also improve the level of the undead, but the effect of mother of the dead is far worse than that of the cloak of the ghost king.
Although it can improve the quality of undead creatures, the effect of mother of the dead is fixed, and there is an upper limit.
For a creature without a rank, the mother of the dead may be able to raise it to about Level 3, but for a creature with level 4 or above, the effect of the mother of the dead is negligible. It can't make the effect of the promotion increase with the level of the controller's evocation.
Moreover, whenever the mother of the dead improves the attributes of the undead creature, it will consume a lot of death energy, which is far beyond the limit that ordinary necromancers can provide, so it can only be provided by the undead crystal. Without a large number of gold coins, even the ghost crystal could not be provided, so it would be impossible to transform.
In contrast, making undead creatures through the cloak of the ghost king has no consumption, but it can directly transform ordinary people's corpses into necromancers of level five or above. It can be said that it completely violates the concept of the necromancer all the time.
In the face of such powerful artifact, as long as the necromancer, his heart will have the desire to have. And the master of the ghost King's cloak, naturally, is the protagonist of the second expansion, the peerless necromancer.
All along, rod did not stop the pace of improving strength, but when he thought of the enemy he might face in the second expansion, he still had no confidence.
In any case, when the second expansion comes, rod, who is a necromancer, needs to return to Diya. Before that, he needs to improve his strength as much as possible to meet the next battle.
