Chapter 522 - Rhode’s Plan (2/2)

It’s him?

Rhode recalled that this Commander was a kind senior with ordinary talent in military affairs He was loyal, obedient, honest, and cared for the civilians a lot He was also often praised by the public and was highly reputable Many players had receivedbandits and deentle personality that cared for the people, a lack of personal opinions, and ordinary talent in eneralization for Michael

But this was extreood news for Rhode…

Rhode had received every inforation Just like he had predicted, even though the Grosso’s er than usual, it wasn’t overly powerful Grosso had two infantry teams and one archer tea to the Garrison Officer, the 5th Division’s main focus seeth was dispatched here This hy theseHowever, this place was still the border area of Grosso and instead of saying the patrol here was to guard the place, they were better off described as a usual practice because, after all, no one thought that the King’s Party would dispatch h the defensive line and penetrate deeply into this hinterland

Of course, this was purely targeting the ‘King’s Party’

Pow! Celestina crushed the Garrison Officer’s skull with her heel and she turned towards Rhode curiously with folded arms “Master, have you come up with a plan?”

Rhode squinted “I ca here… The inforrasp the situation ht arm and a ritual circle formed on his palm Faint radiance emanated froht bearadually and dull, gem-like white stones laid in his hand

Five Soul Cores

Rhode nodded in satisfaction This was the first ti] skill of the [hell Lord] talent tree to extract Soul Cores in front of someone After all, only Undead Creatures of the Country of Darkness would use a spirit extracting skill It was fine if one defeated a BOSS and looted a Soul Core, but one would be an enormous trouble if one brazenly extracted the souls of corpses to create Soul Cores If one was discovered for doing so, one’s faht even be exterminated if the consequences were serious

This was also why Rhode took on this mission alone He couldn’t do it with Celia around, but he believed that Celestina wouldn’t mind as a Demon

Another reason why he didn’t use this skill was that the Soul Cores extracted using the [Reaper Song] would usually have a single attribute and were usually weak He wouldn’t be able to surade their levels like he usually did even after he awakened it The only advantage was that this skill consuy and also enabled the holder to summon more spirits But this characteristic caused Spirit Swordsmen with the [hell Lord] talent to be very passive in duels Even if Rhode built purely on either one of the [Suer] talent trees and didn’t possess any spirit cards like Celia, Celestina, and Gillian, a Spirit Swordsman who built on the [hell Lord] talent tree would need to suainst hi in skills of mass destruction and Rhode could destroy all the Undead Spirits of the [hell Lord] talent tree just by suh in quantity but extreile The [hell Lord] talent tree itself wouldn’t upgrade much of one’s stats and therefore, it was rare for Spirit Swordsman with the [hell Lord] talent tree to be on the PVP rankings But this talent tree was considerable valiant in another aspect, and that was SOLO

NPCs weren’t as strong as players Besides, in tery consu spirits wasn’t a lot One could use an unending streay replenishment With decent equipment, a level 40 player with the [hell Lord] talent tree could solo his way through all the dungeons ranging between level 35 to lvl 39 After reaching his peak, the player could also solo all the dungeons apart from those that required more than 20 team members

This talent tree ell-liked by players who despised group raids—of course, due to the individualistic nature of the [hell Lord] talent tree, s for thereat opportunity for Rhode

He came here to clear a mission alone and these unremarkable Soul Cores in his hand were his support

“Let’s go, Celestina” He kept the Soul Cores in his pockets and gazed at the dark sky “It’s gonna be a busy night”
