The progress of the matter was very smooth. After Leiya came back, he was shocked by the new Stronghold. The poor girl hugged the purchased supplies and items and hovered at the gate, but he did n’t dare to come in. If it was not Rhodes who discovered her, I am afraid that Leiya would have to stand outside until dark.
As for why such a change happened, Leiya is of course doubtful. After all, Rhodes said that before she left, she would clean up the tatters. However, according to old knowledge, the most is just to clean up the debris, how can it be done so completely. But since Rhodes didn't want to say more, Leiya didn't ask more. After so many things, the girl has basically unconditional trust in Rhodes. Although such a weird thing is indeed very strange, but Rhodes itself is a very mysterious person, so there is nothing strange.
And Leiya believes that Rhodes will one day tell these secrets to himself.
Through Leiya, Rhodes also heard about the situation at Mercenary Association. Obviously, old man was quite surprised that he could manage this Haunted House. Obviously they did n’t believe that they had the ability to handle the well-known Haunted House in Deep Rock City. But Serek is on their side. Not only that, he also suggested through Leiya that Rhodes should pay attention to the size and his identity to avoid unnecessary trouble.
For the hint of Serek, Rhodes knows what he knows, and he is very clear, although Ceriel Haunted House is famous, but there are also good players in Deep Rock City. People like sword technique master Serek can still quietly relax even if they do n’t know the true appearance of things here Clean them up. And they still haven't shot, they can be sure that this is not a problem of monster's strength gap, but some of the more external factors.
In the final analysis, it is also located in the upper zone and belongs to the category of Noble, which will definitely be troublesome. Now they have just lived in Rhodes, the name of Haunted House is still there, so I am afraid that no one will come to trouble in the first half. But after a long time, when people find that Haunted House is no longer "fierce", then things are not easy to handle. Six hundred gold coins bought such a big house, although the formalities are no problem, but I am afraid that everyone will have some ideas. After all, as the saying goes, there is no free lunch.
These Rhodes are naturally very clear, but he is curious why Serek will remind himself of this kind of thing, to know that he has no communication with himself ......... In the battle before could it be, Serek started to love.
However, these are the future things. The most practical thing before Rhodes is only one thing. That is the real development of Starlight Mercenary Group.
The first problem is manpower.
Two people ’s Mercenary Group will definitely not work. Indeed, relying on Rhodes ’s familiarity with this area, it is not difficult to complete some quest back and forth. However, lack of manpower means that there is no way to make flexible changes. With the current staffing of Rhodes, it can only hit undead creature, and it will be very troublesome if it encounters living things. As for the ordinary Mercenary Quest, such as escort, transportation, etc., with their own staff, no one is willing to entrust themselves.
But what kind of people should you hire if you want to hire? At least the price / performance ratio must be planned .... Judging from the current assets in the hands of Rhodes, at most only 1-2 people can be hired. Good steel is to be used on the blade, in case the wrong person is selected, it is too late to cry.
Sitting in study room, Rhodes frowned and thought. The room of Noda was a little empty, except for a desk, a few chairs and a bookshelf. Although it is a bit shabby, it can only be done now.
Closed the book in his hand, Rhodes fell into a deep memory.
In August, ———, a year and a half after the glorious year, Kingdom of Light conducted an investigation and stated that Kingdom of the Night had attacked its border merchant ships. Then they quickly sent troops and occupied Solagang Mountain Area, and controlled the residents there, claiming that these people It was main culprit that attacked the Kingdom of Light merchant ship, and was arrested and executed.
Two months later, Kingdom of the Night responded with the army. They recaptured the Solagang Mountain Area, and the Kingdom of Light garrison there was wiped out.
Next, a full-scale war broke out.
Moon Dukedom where Rhodes is located bears the brunt of being attacked by Kingdom of the Night, and in reality originally can be avoided, but Kingdom of Light Parliament issued an order, so that Moon Dukedom had to stand up to face the blade and sword of the dark night.
That is Rhodes In memory player The most deadly injury, Kingdom of the Night Sent out including Vampire , Bone Mage Equal average level Powerful army close to level 80 Moon Dukedom Conducted destructive nature Hit, which was the most at the time but 4-5 Level ten player The brief is disastrous. Although many player Organized spontaneously, trying to defend their land. But these player Weak resistance at Kingdom of the Night The powerful army is so weak in front of them. resurrect , But even so, they were unable to resist Kingdom of the Night Army The pace is like breaking through bamboo. And just then, Kingdom of Light Parliament But made a player Surprised decision ——— They claim Moon Dukedom secret communication Enemy country, and send troops Moon Dukedom An attack was carried out.
This became the last straw that overwhelmed originally's Moon Dukedom that had been crumbling in the storm. Under the attack of both parties, Moon Dukedom began to retreat, and at this time, Moon Dukedom Lord Lydia.Parfield. ** Pull.Franlica finally did After making a decision, he sent his own Elite Legion "Purple Lily" to **** player and her people to Trisfia port for evacuation.
Rhodes still remembers the scene at that time. They stood beside the long queue of refugees. Almost every player was tightly clenching the teeth, watching the land behind them. It was not just because I was insulted by nPC as expel as player, but also the anger of the idiots Parliament of Kingdom of Light.
The residents of Moon Dukedom left. They wore ragged clothes and looked like earth, and slowly walked away.
The players of Moon Dukedom left, they were all flushed and roared, "You play with us in the manufacturing team!" "Game Company go to die!" "I want to kill the XX group of Parliament!", unwilling to leave.
Only one person stayed.
With the power of Seated Angel, she blocked the Kingdom of the Night 100,000 army, until the last ship left from the Trisfia port before the closes the eyes girl, until the last moment she still carried out her oath ——— "The king will always stand on the people Behind them, shelter them from the wind and rain, whether they are willing or not. "
Then, players's anger broke out.
Rhodes clearly remembers that this is the largest outbreak in the history of Dragon Soul Continent. In less than a week, hundreds of thousands of player almost broke the game's official forum. Many people claim that this is the ** for player will. And more player used their actual actions to express their resentment, one after another player guild appeared, and then they raised the blade of revenge against the compatriots of the Kingdom of Light camp and NPCs. And after Rhodes, after all, he gave up his attitude that the game was just for fun and began to take it seriously. After gathering several player who also had a deep hatred for Kingdom of Light, they formed Starlight. That is for their dignity as player, but also for the resistance of the game system, but also out of the anger and revenge of naked.
They succeeded.
Under the leadership of Rhodes', the starlight grew stronger. Then, they swept Kingdom of Light, completely destroyed Kingdom of Light Parliament. Then, they polished the knife edge and sharpened the attack toward another dead enemy Kingdom of the Night. In the end, they also succeeded. He even eliminated the Dragon of the Dark Night called one of the Five Creation Dragons. And after this battle, Starlight jumped up and became the most powerful guild in the entire game, no one.
It can be said that they succeeded and were brilliant. But in Rhodes''s heart, there is always a small voice.
When they wiped out Parliament, when they knocked down Dragon of the Dark Night, Rhodes had such an idea. If I had such a strength at that time, would there be a turnaround? Can everything change?
Rhodes do n’t know, but he is also very clear, it is just a dream. The game will not go back to the file, and it is impossible to start again. He used to think so, until he came to this world ......... Rhodes realized that he had a chance to come again and change his destiny.
He does n’t want to taste that taste again. Whether it is as a refugee or the kind of shame that player has ever suffered, he is absolutely not allowed to happen to him again.
Before that, Rhodes thought about whether to go to Golden City after leaving Dusk Forest, but after learning of the Leiya's encounter, Rhodes changed his mind. Since he could once build a strong enough destruction to fully match Kingdom of Light and Kingdom of the Night, and even be able to compete with Hell's Devil, and finally be able to kill the strong large guild of Dragon of the Void, then why can't he come again?
There is still a year and a half to say whether it is long or not.
Now that he has been recognized by Mercenary Association and also got Rhodes of Stronghold, after all, he plans to start a big fight here, he is here to recreate his splendour that year, and this time, he will not let that year back This kind of shame fell on himself again, which is absolutely intolerable by Rhodes.
Everything is on the right track, it's time to start preparing.
Looking at the beautiful scenery of Deep Rock City outside the window, Rhodes began to remember the attributes of nPC and skill in the game. Soon, Rhodes made up his mind.
"Leiya."
He stood up and knocked on the table. Soon, the girl who was sitting by the window reading originally heard the call of Rhodes' and immediately stood up.
"Let ’s go to Mercenary Association."
Mercenary Association is still as lively as before, and it is no different from the previous few days. The boring mercenary sits on the table next to the hall drinking and chatting. More people are crowded in front to pick up quest or pay quest.
Rhodes quickly found their names on the stone slab of the Mercenary Group Rank, which is marked by Parfield Area, which is marked on the front of the hall. There are a total of 32 Mercenary Groups on stone slab, of which the starlight is ranked first, points It is also a very striking snack.
And seeing here, the Leiya's expression was a bit helpless. Although she had seen it yesterday, the thought of her Mercenary Group flowing from original to the tail was really unbearable. But she was still took a deep breath, barely calmed down, and then said to Rhodes.
"Sir, we are now ranked last, there is no points ......... other mercenaries group has at least five points, we must find a way to do it."
"I know very well."
Rhodes a slight nod replied that he looked up and soon saw another name —— Red Eagle. If Rhodes remembered correctly, Red Eagle should be the team led by the female Mercenary Captain that Leiya knew before. It looks like they It's a good experience. Rank is the twenty-first place. It belongs to the middle level that does not seek meritoriousness, but does not seek high and low.
However, Rhodes came here today for such a trivial matter, he just glanced at it, and then walked to the other side of the hall.
The distribution of Mercenary Association is very obvious. The lobby on the left is the place occupied by the people of each Mercenary Group, while on the right is the place where the idle and unorganized mercenaries stays. These people did not enter Mercenary Group for various reasons. They could only wait here, either pick up some ordinary quest, or wait for Mercenary Group to recruit people. Because of this, it is much more deserted than the lobby. The mercenary sitting at the table chatted in a casual manner, or coldly's stern face sat in the corner as if someone owed him money.
The appearance of Rhodes and Leiya's has attracted many people's attention. They whistled loudly and smiled at the two of them with a smile. However, Rhodes obviously did n’t pay attention to the meaning of these idiots who did n’t even know the gender of the person, and Leiya was already accustomed to this kind of confusion, just pulled away from them with a hint of politeness and reserved smile. There is no intention to respond. Because she is also very clear that these mercenarys are actually idle and boring and want to have some fun. Whether they are angry or happy, their purpose is achieved, and it will be more troublesome at that time. It ’s better to pretend not to do anything, so that they wo n’t get entangled if they feel bored.
Throwing those annoying noises aside, Rhodes turned his head and looked into the corner, and then he walked over ...
The wine in the glass is still so sweet.
old man put down the wine glass in his hand, firmly pressed his quietly trembling right hand, leaned back on the back chair, and stared at the ground indifferently. He used to be a member of Bright Wind Mercenary Group. At that time, he was confident, brave, full of hope and vitality. He once thought countless times that he could become Captain of Mercenary Group one day sooner or later, leading his subordinates to open and adventure His hope is also his goal.
But after the injury, everything changed.
He no longer has the original strength. Those who had worshipped him also abandoned him, but now? The once beautiful youngster turned into a poor old guy who could do nothing but borrow wine to sorrow. Thinking of this, old man came from the grief of can't help but. He raised his head and glanced at the group of little rascal around with contempt. They are too young, still dreaming, adventuring, beauty, money, fame, what are these? Everything is meaningless. After they get everything they rely on, what is left of these little brats?
old man reached out and touched his right eye covered by the blindfold, then raised his glass and tried to ask the bartender to have another.
And at this moment, he found that two people came to him and sat down.
"Walker? Mr. Walker Dedal?"
