,

The mist is gone.

The dust-covered towns once again reappeared in the sun. With the death of Nether Shadow, the shadows that bound them continuously disappeared.

Rhodes put away the long sword and stared at the pile of white dust on the ground in front of her eyes, which was left by Nether Shadow. They radiate a gentle glow under the sunlight. Rhodes was silent for a moment, then squatted, and took out a translucent, milky white gem.

soul core.

It is not surprising that creature of BOSS Rank will drop soul core. After all, creature who can qualify as BOSS Rank has a certain degree of powerful magic power. After years of accumulation, their bodies are more likely to condense soul core than magic beast, and now , Which has also become a Rhodes' loot.

But Rhodes did n’t waste too much time on these things, he cleaned it up, then turned around and walked towards the entrance of the square with some tired steps, although the battle with Nether Shadow was not consumed He has too much physical strength, but he is very tired mentally. Although there was no expression on Rhodes''s face, his slightly heavy pace still showed this.

Seeing the reappearance of the Rhodes' figure, Leiya and Metz finally let out a sigh of relief. They hurried forward and questioned him caringly. But surprisingly, the mood of Rhodes' does not seem to be very high, he just dealt with a few words very flatly, and then he opened the topic and did not want to talk more.

And seeing the Rhodes' performance, Leiya and Metz looked at each other curiously, but they did n’t ask again, they saw that the Rhodes' mood did not seem to be very high, although they did n’t know what happened to the Nether Shadow in the dense fog, but Obviously Rhodes does not intend to talk more about this topic.

Leiya is a clever girl, Metz is also a businessman who is familiar with the scene. Since Rhodes' is in a bad mood, they also shut their mouths very sensibly and no longer ask this topic.

And in reality, the doubts about Nether Shadow did not stay in their hearts for too long, because soon, they focused their attention on another thing. ———, they will eventually leave this ghost place!

Frankly speaking, it took only two or three days from the crash of airship to the trip of leave the mountain by three people, but because of the hardship on this road, they all felt as if they had passed a long, dangerous forest like tens of days. Sudden attacks, strange towns, all these invisible pressures are a bit breathless.

Because of this, when the three people saw the town at the foot of the mountain, even the always calm Rhodes showed a relieved expression, not to mention the Fat Merchant and the excitement that were as exciting as the escape from death. Leiya.

Creek Wood Town is located at the foot of the Parfield mountain range. It is located in the border area and is a very peaceful place. In the game, because it is close to Dusk Forest, it has always been a gathering place for novice player. Rhodes once stayed here for a while, and was familiar with the grass and trees here. Even he can casually call out the names of most people here ——— but walking on quiet streets, looking at those originally belonging to the game character but now turned into living humans, Rhodes' mood is still a bit weird.

Although there are still many things to be done by everyone, nowadays, a soft and comfortable bed and delicious sweet food are their most important concerns. After filling up their stomachs in the hotel in the town, the three of them could not wait to get stuck in the soft bed, and then fell into a deep dream.

When Rhodes eyes opened, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

The sunlight outside the window is mild and warm, and it is scattered on the floor through the wooden window, bringing a comfortable and lazy smell.

"Hu... ........."

Rhodes was relieved. He reached out his hand, carefully watching the scars on it, and moved his body. The chest on the left is still painfully, pulling the Rhodes originally's vague consciousness back to reality.

This is not a dream.

For the first time, Rhodes has a real sense of living in this world.

The lives of the past few days are chaotic and dangerous, giving people a vague sense of unreality. There are several times when Rhodes wakes up from a dream, he thinks that he is still dreaming. Those fights, those monsters only ** fight more Subconscious reflection in the dream. But now, when the danger is gone and the peaceful life reappears in front of his eyes, this real sense of reality becomes stronger.

So, where do you go from here?

"thump thump thump."

Slightly low knocking on the door interrupted Rhodes' thinking. He looked up and looked at the door.

"Please come in."

With the sound of Rhodes', the door slowly opened, and then the blonde girl came in, holding a clean bandage in her hand and carrying a basin of water. Seeing the Rhodes sitting on the bed, the girl first showed a soft and lively smile, and then this was asked.

"Mr. Rhodes, how is your body?"

"Fortunately, no problem."

In the face of the care of the girl, Rhodes a slight nod means to return the gift. Although his performance was not very enthusiastic, Leiya was obviously accustomed to the Rhodes' reaction, so she just smiled quietly, and came to at Rhodes' side without saying much, and began to prepare for the work of changing the bandage.

While looking at the girl who lowered her head, Rhodes smiled bitterly in her heart. In fact, he is not enthusiasm that he does not want to show. It is not interesting to put on a poker face. He is also over the age of playing cool and handsome. This is not interesting.

But there is no way to change Rhodes. This is due to his deep-rooted habits. ——— is still very childhood. Because of this face similar to Younger Sister, he was laughed at by his friends and classmates as "like a lady" This is obviously not a compliment for a man. Rhodes is constantly concerned about his face, so when entering Dragon Soul Continent, he did not choose the advanced "scanning reproduction" technology like many player, but chose the character image that comes with the game. At the time, the young Rhodes had no way to fight against it, so he could only try to pretend to be indifferent, rarely showing a smile to show that he was a man, not the weak female.

This is the middle and second period that everyone will have. With the growth of age, Rhodes is no longer restricted to such small things, but unfortunately he soon realized that it seems to have become a habit, there is no Ways to change. And later he became the most powerful online game guild of Guild Leader in the entire Dragon Soul Continent game, which made him have to choose a calm and restrained expression to lead and govern guild, and now that his character has formed, he wants to change again It's not so easy.

But these are only minor issues.

The pain in the wound caused Rhodes to withdraw his thoughts. He looked at the girl who was gently wiping the scar on his chest, but he remembered another thing.

"Leiya."

"What's the matter? Mr. Rhodes?"

"Next, what are your plans?"

Hearing the question of Rhodes', the girl ’s body quivered quietly, and her movements stopped slightly. Then, she lightly sighed lowered her head helplessly.

"Frankly speaking, I am not very clear, Mr. Rhodes."

"What about your companion? Is there no place for you to go back to could it be?"

"Even if I go back, I will be the only one ........."

Speaking of which, the tone of Leiya's is a little low.

"And, Mercenary Group, is about to be dissolved."

So it turns out.

After hearing Leiya's narration, Rhodes finally understood her situation.

In Dragon Soul Continent, mercenary groups are divided into three level, lowest level is Mercenary Team, most of them are 5-6 adventurers as a group, at most no more than ten people. This organization is very loose, and there is no special regulation, just register with Mercenary Association, anyone can organize such a team.

And the next is Mercenary Group, the number of people is at least ten or more. Compared with those Mercenary Team who are well gathered and scattered, Mercenary Group has entered the regular track. They not only have to fill in the formal data to report to Mercenary Association, but also With some assistance from Mercenary Association, I can even have my own Stronghold.

And further up is Mercenary Guild, and their number is more than 100 people. These Mercenary Guilds are not only powerful, but also have their own Stronghold and Fortress, and even get indirect support from the official or chamber of commerce, and even some huge Mercenary Guild even own The influence of its territory and cities is also quite prominent.

The rank division of these Mercenary Groups is not only as simple as the strength and prestige, but also affects their evaluation when they are connected to quest. It is impossible for a Mercenary Team to receive the quest of guild level. Even if they want to receive it, they will be indirectly rejected by Mercenary Association. Even if they finally complete quest, they will not be recognized. ———. Of course, the ordinary mercenary team does not have the strength to complete guild level The quest is just that.

Although Mercenary Group and Mercenary Guild enjoy many privileges, they are not without pressure. ——— Mercenary Association will rate them according to the degree of danger and completion of quest received by various groups. After one year, if quest completed points insufficient, Then Mercenary Association will forcibly dissolve those Mercenary Groups that fail to reach the pass line, even those Mercenary Guilds, will be forced to downgrade to Mercenary Group.

Leiya will show such depression. It is also related to her. Mercenary Group originally is only a dozen people, small and medium-sized groups, and now because of this quest, only one survivor is left, and even Captain died. In this way, Mercenary Group simply cannot be maintained. Although it is still spring and there is still a long time until the end of the year, but Leiya alone simply cannot support a Mercenary Group, let alone she is only an Healer, simply has no combat power, even if it is If you want to do it by yourself, you just have more than enough power. From the current point of view, Leiya's Mercenary Group can only be dismissed obediently, and with the special auxiliary profession Healer, it is not difficult for girls to join other teams.

But it seems that Leiya does not mean to leave.

"You do n’t want to leave?"

When faced with Rhodes', the girl was very sure about nodded.

"Yes, Mr. Rhodes, after all, they are the first to accept me, and, here, my relationship with everyone is like a family ......... I, I really do not want this Mercenary Group to disappear." /

Say here, Leiya's rims of the eyes turned red, but she bit her lower lip, but she did n’t shake it.

"They have left, at least ... at least I hope they will continue to work hard to prove that they can stay."

"But as far as the current situation is concerned, if you cannot find enough manpower, then the dissolution of Mercenary Group is only a matter of time."

"Yes."

Leiya did not evade this, and she knew the problem herself, but the girl did n’t mean to give up.

"However, I still don't want to give up, Mr. Rhodes. As you said to me before, since I am alive, I must do something meaningful, although I still don't know how much I can do this. , But I still hope to give it a try. "

Looking at the girl ’s firm expression, Rhodes suddenly thought of an idea, he was silent for a moment, and then started talking.

"Since this is the case, I have a proposal."

"What proposal? Mr. Rhodes?"

Hearing Rhodes, Leiya hurriedly looked up and looked at him nervously. Although he hasn't been in contact with Rhodes for a few days, his versatility and strength have left a deep impression on Leiya. Whether it is Wind Snake, Silver Wolf or Demon, it is the monster that Leiya has never met and even heard of. Not to mention her, Leiya can be sure that many mercenary have never seen these monster, but Rhodes is well aware of their weaknesses and habits, which is simply unimaginable. She is not as bored as Metz to guess who is the true identity of Rhodes'. It is not necessary between adventurer, just know that he is very powerful, it is enough.

Although Leiya thinks that she has made enough psychological preparations, the next sentence of Rhodes still surprises her with stared wide-eyed, which is speechless.

"If you want, give me Mercenary Group."
