black shadow traversed the forest, they separated from time to time, and then gathered together again.
"Did you notice it?"
"There are traces left in the east direction, which is probably the target. From the time point of view, it should be no more than one day."
"Their speed is really fast, continue to move, pay attention to caution, but the other party can kill Wind Snake Lord guys, don't take it lightly."
"Yes!"
After the three black shadows finished talking, they again turned into black shadows and disappeared into the depths of the jungle. Their movements were silent, so that there was no alarm to the birds resting on the trees.
And just after black shadows left, the green bird standing on the branch quietly spread its wings and flew to the sky.
"Someone is following?"
After hearing Soul Bird's speech, Rhodes complexion quietly sank. At this moment, on his shoulder, the translucent turquoise Soul Bird calm was standing there, shaking his head from time to time, stretching his wings, and it looked like no ordinary bird. Only the translucent body and the brilliance of the elements surrounding its body show that the bird in front of it is not a trait.
Calling Soul Bird for surveillance is a method that Rhodes temporarily came up with on the way. The general player will be equipped with reconnaissance profession such as Thief or Ranger when teaming up to the mountain to ensure that there is no danger in front of the road. But the current Rhodes obviously does not have such good conditions, so he had to step back and use his own summoned creature to explore the way. Fortunately, Soul Bird is not only advantageous in terms of line of sight, but also the skill of sense soul, which is inherently held by soul element creature, can also make Rhodes more at ease. originally Rhodes is out of insurance and wanted to see if they had any trouble after killing the Level 10 Giant Wolf before letting the Soul Bird patrol behind them, but ran into a bigger problem unintentionally.
Although sense soul can not show the specific form of the target, it can only be judged by the brightness of soul, but Rhodes feels a little bad from the speed of the other party, and it is generally possible to cross freely in the forest so fast But Ranger, ——— like spies, anyway, all are blind profession. In addition, the other party's actions are quite Order, it is difficult to imagine that it is ordinary adventurer.
Has happened to pass by? Or did they come specifically for them?
Rhodes does not dare to take risks, if the other party is looking for a fair and honest door, it is fine. But this kind of profession hidden in the dark is the most difficult to deal with. In addition to the tips before Leiya, he always felt that this matter was a bit strange. If these guys are hostile to them, then the development of the situation is difficult to imagine.
However, when Rhodes saw the Leiya around him, can't help but's eyes lit up.
He already has an idea.
"Mr. Rhodes, where shall we go next?"
Hand the kettle to Fat Merchant, Leiya asked, who was sitting on the side, flushed and sweating. Although Rhodes did not say much, but the work of taking care of this Fat Merchant along the way is constantly done by Leiya. According to the girl's own statement, his Mercenary Group has taken over the commission to protect this gentleman, so even if he is left alone, as long as quest has not been completed, he must continue to execute.
And Metz is naturally very grateful for this, but looking at his current gasping for air like a cow, I am afraid that I wo n’t be able to live for too long.
"Rhodes ... Sir, exhausted ... I ... I'm here, let's take a break ... Let's take a break!"
As long as Rhodes stopped, Fat Merchant, who had already sat down on the ground, held the handbag in his hand like a baby, took out the handkerchief, wiped the sweat beads on the face, put a piece of fat The oil on my face shines, so that it shines like a big light bulb under the sun
"Holy, Holy Spirit bless, I ... I have ... I haven't left for a few years ... Go ... cough cough... ... !!!" Said here, Fat Merchant didn't pant in a single breath, and coughed several times, Even the fat on his face shook. It took a while to recover to God. "Walk ... after a long walk, I think ... I think I am going to die!"
"Five minutes of rest."
Rhodes glanced at the sky, then deep in the heart calculated the next distance and time, and issued the order. Upon hearing his words, Fat Merchant sitting on the ground with originally immediately howled and then lay down on the ground. And Leiya quietly exhaled, sitting on the stone beside.
After that, they did not encounter any special danger. With the Soul Bird opening, Rhodes took them very smoothly to avoid many dangerous areas, although they also got some opportunities to get precious equipment, but Rhodes is not distressed, because there is no such thing as player in the world, and ordinary adventurer will not go through the mountains and forests, so it is not a big deal to wait for the two to take leave the mountain and then take a rest and come back and take it too late. But ...
Rhodes glanced up at the mountains not far away and stood up.
"Leiya."
"Yes, Mr. Rhodes, what do you ask?"
“I ’ll go ahead and see, you took Mr. Metz up the mountain after five minutes of rest, did you see the white stone? Go there, and then in the shadows, you will find an abandoned mountain road, you are here Wait for me there, I'll be there in a minute. "
Leiya raised his head, following the direction of Rhodes's fingers, and soon noticed the white stone on the mountainside next to her. She turned her head doubtfully and looked at Rhodes, not knowing how he knew about it. But the girl just opened her mouth, but she did n’t ask questions. After these few days of traveling, she already understood that the man in front of her was quite worth relying on. Although she did n’t know what he was going to do, the girl was still nodded, and then watched Rhodes turn around. go away.
Rhodes certainly has his own plan. That stone was the entrance to Zunare mountain road. It used to be a splendid business road. The ancestors of Northern People were poor and his life-long strength. A cross was cut out in this mountain range. Mountains, roads connecting the plain with other areas. Here was once created a brilliant. However, with the development and utilization of tempest, the unobstructed sky is obviously more insured than the forest of crisis heavily, so this commercial road is gradually abandoned, and those who depend on it have already left here to find it. Better life, abandoned their homes, until here again turned into a barren.
The progress of civilization will always make the once spectacles meaningless, and it will be the same in every world.
However, Rhodes is not here to travel and understand the philosophy of life.
He stopped, and at this moment, in front of Rhodes', a barren land appeared.
And the body.
Senson ’s bone was almost buried by dust. Only the broken leather armor and corroded weapons were scattered on the ground. This is a Mercenary Group named “Tiger Fang”. They were attacked by mountain bandit during the adventure, and then they were both killed and injured. Here now. originally is in the game, Rhodes needs to receive quest from Mercenary Guild first, and then investigate their final entrustment according to the clues, then follow the signs on the map to find it all the way, then find here, and finally reply with faith token and treasure. But that is a game after all, and step by step is a necessary step. But even so, many veterans will not be so complicated, they would rather take faith token, and then return to Mercenary Guild indirectly. This not only saves time but is also convenient and fast, and can save so many troublesome steps, why not do it?
But Rhodes is not here to save those few steps.
Walking deep in the battlefield, Rhodes saw at a glance an bone lying on the edge of the mountain, wearing a corroded steel armor, and a handful of dark, rusty ones were still on hand. Iron sword. That's exactly the Rhodes' target, and this Mercenary Group's Captain.
Walking down to the corpse, Rhodes glanced at it, then stretched out his hand, and quickly found a mercenary badge ——— from the corpse of the other party. This is exactly the faith token of "Tiger Fang" Mercenary Group. Entrust necessary items. Rhodes carefully placed it in his side pocket, and then he looked down and quickly found his goal.
It was a dirty ring worn on finger bone.
Rhodes carefully took the ring. From the surface, this ring has no use, and it is no different from the waste copper in the trash. But the System Notification that appeared in front of him told Rhodes that this was not the case.
"resonance."
Rhodes closes the eyes, holding the ring in his right hand, whispered, and then injected his own soul strength inward.
The ring in his hand quivered quietly, and the weak magic fluctuation of originally became clear, and when he was eyes opened again, his hand was no longer the scrap copper. On the contrary, a dark, carved ring with a simple pattern lay quietly on the palm of his hand.
Done.
Rhodes put the ring on the finger of his right hand, and he was relieved, and then he looked around for a moment, and after confirming that there was nothing more valuable, he turned around and returned to the mountainside.
There, Rhodes can clearly see that Leiya and Metz are struggling toward the white stone. Fat Merchant obviously does not have any experience for mountain climbing. He followed him tremblingly behind Leiya's. Looking at him like this, it is estimated that it was not because men and women had no reason to fight. I am afraid he cried and begged Leiya to take him up.
It's really waste.
Rhodes shook his head helplessly and was planning to go down to meet them, and at this moment, the warning signal from Soul Bird suddenly sounded deep in his heart.
"———!"
Rhodes was shocked in his heart. He hurriedly looked towards the forest. Soon, he saw three black shadow flying out of it.
The situation is not good!
