Chapter 24 Vampire IV
Rod stared at the vampire not far away. In the course of this observation, Rod seemed to have discovered something.
The vampire had just recovered and rushed towards Rhode. Since there were wounded undead creatures all around, Rhode did not let them surround the vampire, but faced the vampire in front of him.
In the field, Rod and the vampire interlaced, the sword and the claws constantly collided, making the sound of gold and iron. For a time, Rod relied on expert swordsmanship, coupled with a good attribute, and was comparable to vampires.
As the battle progressed and his personal perceptions, Rhode understood the attributes of the vampire in front of him.
Among Tier 3 creatures, vampires have balanced attributes, and there are no obvious weaknesses in terms of strength, speed, or physique. In addition to its bat transformation ability and the characteristics of undead creatures, it is generally more focused on survivability and the ability to deal with large groups of low-level enemies, so it is impossible to quickly solve Rhode by means of moves alone.
For the current Rhodes, it is difficult to deal with opponents that emphasize a certain attribute, such as vampires with balanced attributes. When none of the attributes enter the elite stage, Rhodes can rely on expert swordsmanship to deal with .
Although there is a gap in basic attributes, Rhode’s expert swordsmanship uses skills to make up for the lack of attributes.
Rhode also gained some understanding of the damage that vampires can cause by observing the injuries of undead creatures. Rod believed that if a vampire caught his neck, he could also kill himself in seconds.
To deal with vampires, Rhode’s fighting method is mainly to counterattack, and to control the distance, using the blade to parry the vampire’s claws, coupled with flexible dodge, so that the vampire can not attack him.
At this time, the effects of expert swordsmanship were brought into full play, and the vampires could not get close to Rhode at all with their moves alone. Instead, Rhode made multiple wounds on the vampire’s body.
However, at this time, Rhode’s face was not as relaxed as when he had the upper hand, but more solemn.
The vampire’s combat experience, although not comparable to Rhode who has expert swordsmanship, surpasses all of Rhode’s enemies so far.
Whenever Rhodes wanted to attack the vitals of the vampire, the vampire could either dodge the past, or directly rely on his powerful physical attributes to forcefully attack Rhodes.
Rhode would naturally not exchange injuries with the vampire, so he could only give up the opportunity to attack.
At the same time, Rod also realized that in this way of combat, each of his attacks could only leave very shallow wounds on the vampire. And the shallow wounds he left had little effect on the vampire’s high physique attributes, but made the vampire even more violent.
The surrounding undead creatures are not doing nothing. Under Rhodes’s control, whenever a vampire wants to take Rhode’s attack, and attack Rhode, the surrounding undead creatures will immediately step forward.
The walking corpse resisted the damage by Lord’s side, and the corpse wolf took the opportunity to contain the vampire by attacking.
However, this also made the undead creatures controlled by Rhode less and less. Whether it is a walking corpse or a corpse wolf, it is almost impossible to withstand the full claw of a vampire.
Seeing the undead creatures around him die one by one, Rod began to feel anxious, but thinking of a way to deal with vampires, he knew that he had to wait for a chance…
Originally, the vampire only needed two bat transformations to solve all the surrounding undead creatures, and then they could directly attack Rhodes. However, due to the use of bats in the tomb too many times in advance, the limit of the number of times allows vampires to fight only by relying on basic attributes.
Gradually, there were more and more wounds on the vampire’s body, but they were obviously insignificant injuries. The characteristics of undead creatures destined that vampires would not weaken their combat power because of these wounds. The real vitality of the vampire was never attacked by Rhode.
The vampire swung his claw at Rhode, and Rhode picked up the blade, trying to block the attack. However, the vampire turned into a palm directly, regardless of the damage that the blade might bring, grabbed it into his hand, and at the same time swung the other claw toward Lord.
At this time, apart from the dead wolf king who suffered a serious injury from a vampire attack and did not die, there were not many undead creatures around.
The vampire had taken a fancy to this point, taking advantage of no interference from surrounding undead creatures, and wanted to hit Rhodes with a single blow.
The rich combat experience has made vampires understand that even if the human flesh and blood body is superior to itself in terms of skills, it cannot beat itself in terms of physique. As long as the humans in front of them can be hit hard in this way, they can be killed later.
“coming……”
Rod’s eyes condensed, and he clearly understood the vampire’s thoughts, but at the same time, this was also the opportunity that Rod had been waiting for.
Except for awakening the corpse wolf at the beginning and lighting the torch later, Rhode’s mana was never consumed. Rhode’s remaining mana can only release two spells.
Rod did not choose spells related to attributes. Even if he uses magic to temporarily increase his basic attributes, Rod can’t kill vampires within the duration. Moreover, vampires can still use bats. Rod doesn’t think that vampires will consume all the bats.
Rhodes chose the magic arrow that can change the situation of the battle. In the previous battle, Rod understood that even if the magic arrow hits the vampire, if it is not the hit, it can only cause minor damage.
Therefore, the use of magic arrows requires Rhode to find a good time.
The weapon in his hand was grabbed by the vampire, and watching the vampire claw up, Rhode did not hide. Instead, facing the vampire in front of him, he raised his other hand.
A ray of light quickly formed in Lord’s hands. While the vampire was attacking, without any protection against the body, the light shot towards the vampire in front.
Magic arrow!
Vampires have very few vital points. High-level vampires, even if they are beheaded, can continue to fight for a while.
But for vampires with only Tier 3, they obviously don’t have this ability, and the head is the most important part.
Therefore, facing the vampire with the empty door open all over, the place where Rhode’s magic arrow points is exactly the place that can cause the most damage, the vampire’s head.
The vampire grabbed Rod’s neck with one claw. The sharp claws had just pierced into it, and he was about to pull the flesh out. Rod’s magic arrow also hit the vampire’s head!
Casting the spell at close range caused the head of the vampire to be directly penetrated by the magic arrow, and the blood mist violently burst in front of Rhode’s eyes. The fatal damage caused the vampire to lose his strength by grasping Rod’s hand.
The strong vitality of the vampire made it not die even if its head was penetrated.
Rod took advantage of the victory and was about to stab him with a sword. The vampire’s body split, and a large cloud of black mist burst out in front of Rod.
