"Let Anne go?"
After hearing Rhodes calling her name, Annie tilted her head curiously, then thought about it, and then nodded.
"No problem, Captain, wherever you want Annie to go."
After finishing this sentence, Anne refocused her attention on the food in front of her and restarted her struggle. It seems to the girl that she really doesn't care what Rhodes tells her to do, anyway, let her do it, then she's right to do it. As for why they are themselves, what does they do? Does it matter to Anne? With such time to think about this problem, it might as well solve a little more bread in front of me.
"Do I need to go with me? Mr. Rhodes?"
Leiya and Marlene glanced at each other, then the former whispered started talking.
"No more."
Rhodes shook his head, Black Pine Vestige was not much trouble, and there was no undead creature, Leiya, a Healer, and it was unnecessary to follow. originally Rhodes did not plan to bring Anne, but Ball of Mystery this thing can't be taken alone by his strength. Although the name Ball of Mystery does not sound like a big name, but table tennis is a ball, basketball is a ball, and the moon is also a ball ... Rhodes does not think that he has the ability to pick up the moon. originally needs a high-loaded corner when going to get Ball of Mystery in the game. Rhodes subordinate/hand does not have barbarian, but Anne ’s Half-Beast is not bad ... at least much stronger than himself.
"I hope you take good care of Kristi these few days. She has just come here. There are definitely many places that are not used to it. You are all girls. I think you should be more clear about her thoughts."
"Okay."
Hearing here, Leiya hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed. She doesn't think there is any problem with the Rhodes' arrangement. In fact, Leiya herself very much hopes to stay with Kristi. However, this little girl seems to be not enough to adapt to the new environment, and they also maintain a certain distance from them subconsciously. She will let go of her vigilance only by Rhodes's side, so Rhodes can now make Leiya closer to Kristi more justly.
"When is set off?"
Marlene glanced at Anne, who was not looking at anything except the food on the plate, and asked this question in her place.
"I will leave early tomorrow morning, and I will let Rando take care of buying two tickets. If there is any news from the administrative officer, I will directly say that I am not there, and I will tell you something when I come back."
During this time, Rhodes has also reported about High Cliff Village to Krause. As for what Krause wants to do and what to do, it is his business, and it has nothing to do with himself. Anyway, quest is completed, even if the idiots in High Cliff Village want to cry and nose to go home to find their mother, that is also their business, but it is difficult to say if they have the guts.
"I understand."
When I heard Rhodes' answer · Marlene a slight nod, I stopped talking. But at this moment, Rhodes saw Christie holding the glass in her hand, looking at herself uneasy. There was a strong attachment and reluctance in his eyes.
"... Rhodes ... Do you want to go?"
"I just go out and do something."
Facing the uneasy inquiry of Christie, Rhodes gave her a soothing smile, which was continued to speak.
"Do n’t worry, you will be back in a few days."
"····· Un ………"
Facing Rhodes''s answer, Christie nodded · didn't say much. In fact, the girl's own mood is also very complicated. In High Cliff Village, she has never encountered any good things. The girl is used to this kind of life, and she will not have any thoughts about it. There is no harm without expectation. Since Christie never expected the villagers to treat themselves kindly one day, they would not be distressed because they would punch themselves. Even Old Village Chief is the same, although it was because of his upbringing that Christie spent the most difficult time, but after that Old Village Chief ignored her and treated her like air. And Christie has already accepted her life, although in the eyes of others, such a life is simply a pain. But for Christie, getting used to it is nothing. This is like a person born in an extremely cold place with ice, snow, and snow. If someone who comes from a warm place comes here, he will definitely feel frozen and die. But for those who were born here in originally, they are used to this kind of severe cold, and they don't feel very disgusted except for some obstacles.
But now the girl feels a bit painful in her life.
It's true that everyone treats her well, but the better they treat her, the more scary Kristi feels. Since birth, the girl has never tasted the warmth of the world, but to talk about indifference and pain, she may know better than anyone in Starlight Mercenary Group. Christie knew how cruel people could be, and what they would do if they really hated themselves. This made her very worried, very scared. Now Leiya, Anne and Marlene are very gentle to her, even Christie has never enjoyed such warmth. But the more she was, the more she feared if they would abandon themselves in the future, if they could accept such a blow.
This worry is not necessary for ordinary people, but for Christie, it is a matter of course. Many people are born after being yelled by their parents and surrounded by friends. Grew up in a warm environment. Of course, they may have experienced various kinds of suffering in the future, but the warmth they have enjoyed since birth is still kind of goodwill. But Kristi is different. She was the object of disgust, curse, hate, insult, and beating from the beginning of her birth. She has changed other people, let alone despair of the world, and it is not surprising that her heart is full of hatred. And Christie can actually hold pure spirit/mind, which is already very rare ...........
So whenever Leiya shows a gentle attitude to Christie, and the girl wants to respond, she instinctively begins to worry about this issue. ——— The instinct of human self-defense makes girls friendly to others Her hands are hesitant, she is worried that she will be hurt after she is put into it. Since that is the case, keeping her distance from the beginning might make her hurt a little bit less ...
Only in front of Rhodes, Christie would not have such an idea. Only when he saw him, Christie would let go of the problem that had been entangled in his own heart. I do n’t know why, facing this and myself. People who are almost exactly the same, but Christie has no precautions.
She feels comfortable staying in at Rhodes' side, and she does n’t think about it, which makes her feel very comfortable.
Because of this, Christie does n’t actually want Rhodes to leave, but because of her encounter, girls are more precocious than many of her peers, so Christie knows that she should n’t be at this time. Ren xìng, so she was just nodded, not much to say, but her expression obviously became low.
When Christie's expression was included in his eyes, Rhodes also felt a little embarrassed, but he didn't say much. Feelings and reason are two different things. She will go out longer in the future. Kristi cannot always be by her side, and her physical quality also determines that Kristi is not even likely to go far .........
But there is no better way for Rhodes now. Although I am sorry for Christie, he can only do so.
Early the next morning, Rhodes took Anne to the "port" outside the upper zone of Deep Rock City.
On the surface, there seems to be no difference between the port here and other places. A ship is moored in it, and thick and long cables hang from the ship and hang on the stone pillars to maintain the balance of the hull. A sampan connects the hull to the port, the workers carry the goods or push the truck to transport the ore and other specialty products to the ship, and the carriages stop on the other side, waiting for the vegetables and fruits to be removed from the ship s product.
Everything looks the same as the bustling trading ports of other commercial cities. ——— If you ignore that they are built on the mountainside.
In the game, Rhodes was once amazed by this spectacular scene, but he did n’t think it was so strange. The game, no matter how real it is, is the data. Is it strange to get a bit of the sky and the earth? But now in reality, when he himself stood on this lively port and looked at these floating ships in the air, Rhodes thought it was really incredible. Just looking at the ships suspended in midair, but without any power system to keep them floating, only a rope to tie them, Rhodes thinks this thing is too unreliable, what if these ships fall?
He glanced at airship not far away, shook his head, and then pulled up cloak to cover his face. He did n’t want to cause any trouble when he went out, so Rhodes planned to act in a low-key manner. He also knew that his face always caused trouble for himself. Since childhood, his teacher always regarded him as a girl, and his peers always regarded him as a The girl looks. It wasn't until Rhodes was comfortable in the game, he could choose to build a burly male horn, without worrying about being regarded as a female again. This is also one of the reasons why he is very passionate about the dragon world, at least in this virtual world, no one will confuse himself by doing so. ········
The result is now back in a circle, Rhodes finds himself tragic again ..................
He ca n’t redesign a character like he did in the game, and he can only find as little trouble as possible in this way. But Rhodes doesn't have much time to think about his past and present, because there is a very lively family around him "Ah, Captain, Annie found our ship!"
Annie was carrying a shield of fine gold and was running around Rhodes excitedly. Then she reached out and pointed to a boat not far away, and looked in the direction of her finger, Rhodes soon saw A two-story passenger ship, which floated quietly in the port, was embroidered with a golden wing pattern on the raised flag. After looking at the pattern, Rhodes lowered its head and looked at the ship in its own hands. Same pattern on the ticket.
That's it. ! .
