It ’s not difficult to imagine how the residents in Fortress will react when they see such a magical and beautiful crystal statue the next day. They did not expect that the square that was empty the day before was just a night ’s work. There is such a beautiful statue. This kind of thing that almost only happens in the craziest dreams shocks everyone. It was rumored that the first person who saw the statue was even scared of the fart, screaming and rushing into guild Stronghold to ask for help from mercenaries, and mercenary who got the news was also surprised after seeing the statue. Even within half an hour, rumors about this statue have spread to every corner of Fortress, and many people ran to see the excitement. It was not until Marlene came forward on behalf of guild that the statue was built by them, which made everyone feel at ease. But because of this, it is more shocking and unbelievable.
At the time when Rhodes established Land of Redemption Fortress, it only took a long time/half of the day time. Basically, no one in Fortress didn't know it, because it was a very proud and glorious thing in Starlight's view. But in fact, not everyone believes such rumors. Even within Starlight Guild, there are many mercenary who think this is too exaggerated. After all, following the Rhodes to clean the mercenary of Land of Redemption is only a small part of the people, and most of them have not seen How is this Fortress built, so it is inevitable that there will be some places in the rumor that can't stand the scrutiny. It ’s no surprise that others do n’t believe it.
But this time, after witnessing such a miracle, even those mercenary finally began to change their minds. After living in Fortress for such a long time, they can be sure that there was nothing there yesterday, a blank, but now, the crystal statue with a height of 20 meters is standing tall on the square, carved with beautiful patterns. The base is integrated with the bluestone brick floor of heavy on the square, and there is no difference at all, as if it has been there all the time, but it has been waiting for others to find it.
But this is impossible.
Marlene did not say much, but almost everyone knows that this must be done by Rhodes.
How did he do it?
For the whole night, they did n’t even hear any movement. As a result, eyes opened found such a statue appeared in front of them the next day. This kind of image is unbelievable, only in those exaggerated myths and legends. The only thing that appeared was that it appeared in front of them, and they were finally surprised that ——— was even in awe.
Rhodes is a very mysterious and serious existence in the eyes of most mercenary, but because he is too young, there will always be mercenary who maintains a slight contempt for Rhodes. In fact, in Starlight Guild, there has always been such an emotion. Not every mercenary is convinced of Rhodes'. Many of them first joined Starlight Guild just because they were interested in the development potential and strength of Starlight, not because of Rhodes. Most of these people are newcomers to the future. They have strength, potential and ambition, but for Rhodes, most of them are only superficially respected. In fact, Rhodes is not really taken into consideration.
As for other people, including Shana, Joey and Rando, they have been following Rhodes' from the beginning, but they saw that Rhodes has done many things that no one can even imagine, or even can do. . Therefore, these mercenary are naturally loyal to Rhodes, they know the strength of Rhodes', and understand his strength and terrible. So they are sincere in their awe of Rhodes'. And seeing those newcomers who do not know life and death express their disdain for Rhodes, these old man are naturally uncomfortable. They felt that these newcomers were too arrogant and lacked respect for Rhodes'. The newcomers feel that the old man story about Rhodes' is too exaggerated. Although they also admit that this youngster is indeed very strong, but looking at what those old man said, it is simply too legendary to even believe. Therefore, many people think that this is nothing but old man exaggerated or simply a story compiled to frighten them.
How can such a Fortress be built in less than a day? Look at the scale of this Fortress, almost catching up with half of the small cities. How could this scale be completed in one day? Treat us like fools?
But now, these people are shaking.
Because they could n’t find any reason to explain the matter in front of them. This happened in front of them without any blinding method. Before this, they not only did n’t hear sound of the wind, they even I didn't even notice the movement, but now the statue appeared in front of them!
What the old mercenary before could it be said is true?
The idea appeared in the minds of the newcomers, making them all tremble with can't help but, Holy Spirit above. If this is true, then what else can the adult not do? Thinking of this, those originally arrogant mercenarys are also a lot more honest. They are not fools. If those old mercenarys are not telling stories, but the truth, then do n’t be silly. . I heard that the young adult ——— had a bad temper.
Rhodes did not expect that the Saintess Statue he built himself helped him to consolidate his prestige and status in guild, but he does not have time to manage these things now, although after returning, most of the things are caused by Marlene processing, but many important things still have to let Rhodes nod.
First of all, the question about Alchemist Association. After half a month, Alchemist Association finally let go of the face and sent the alchemy materials he needed before according to Rhodes'. And Rhodes also kept its promise, not only let Labise make poison potion, but also returned the idiot Thomas, who led the Alchemist team to sneak attacks, to the other party. However, after the poor bug was released from the black prison, his spirit had completely collapsed, and he became a lunatic. The genius of Alchemist Association had completely disappeared, and he was no longer seen.
And the progress of Labise is also very smooth. The alchemy apprentices brought by from the beginning and Marlene have a slight contempt for Labise, a younger girl than them. But after Labise showed his own Alchemy Skill and knowledge of Grandmaster Rank, the several alchemy apprentices immediately put down their contempt and began to work for Labise wholeheartedly, but as those trusted by Marlene, these people's conduct was not bad , So get along very well with Labise. With the addition of these people, the work of Labise has also been significantly easier, at least she does not need to do anything like before.
In addition to this, Rhodes also got a message ——— that was the girl who had been rescued from the monastery before, and finally regained consciousness.
"..................... Wu... ......"
Girl eyes opened, the dazzling sunlight enters from the window, which makes her brows can't help wrinkling, and then the girl feels the pain in her body sweeping from her limbs, as if every blood vessel has been infused Hot lava, which makes the girl instinctive moaned, followed by her eyes opened.
The high ceilings, clean glass windows and white sheets and curtains are in sight, and the breeze blows in from the half-open window, making people feel comfortable and comfortable.
"This is ..............."
The girl stared blankly out the window, the blue sky, the soft sunlight, the green leaves, everything looked full of vigor and vitality. It wasn't until this time that the girl remembered everything that happened before. ——— was right. She was kidnapped and taken to a terrible place in the mountains. There were terrible and terrifying adults everywhere. They locked themselves up. I want to make myself .........
"............ !!!"
Thinking of this, the girl was shocked suddenly, and she sat up quickly, but soon, the severe pain all over her made her lie down on the bed again, and at this time, a slight voice came from the girl ’s side. .
"... I think ... it is better not to move ..."
"Hey?"
At this sound, the girl froze for a moment, then she turned her head, and soon, she saw a girl sitting by the bed, looking at herself worriedly. Seeing her eyes, the girl smiled softly and assuredly.
"............... you finally woke up ..."
"Who are you? Where is this ........."
Looking at this petite, slender and thin girl in front of me, the girl is also curious about asked from can't help but. The girl smiled slightly, then stood up.
"My name is Chris ......... Here is ... Rhodes' Fortress ... Rest assured, here ... nobody will hurt you ..."
Maybe it ’s because the soft voice of Chris touched the girl, or maybe it ’s because she realized that the situation under her eyes was not as bad as she thought. everything of. Indeed, even if you do n’t use Chris to say it yourself, as long as the girl carefully observes, you will find that this room is completely different from the cold, old dungeon that she brought before. Although the decoration here is not luxurious, it is very elegant and comfortable, giving a feeling of peace of mind. could it be that, came out of that terrible place? How did it come out?
Just when there was a mess in the girl ’s head, the door knocking sounded, and then a young man wearing a Noble costume entered the room.
"............ Rhodes ..............."
When the man walked into the room, a soft smile appeared on the face of Chris who was sitting next to the girl. She stood up and trot all the way into the man's arms. The girl was surprised at eyes open wide, looked at the girl who fell in the arms of the man, and then looked up at the dark-haired man ——— in front of him. This is no wonder, after all, except for the age factor, the two of them are exactly the same. could it be that, is this gentleman the brother of that girl?
"Hello, this lady."
Just when the girl was cranky, Rhodes had stroked Chris ’s hair, and then turned to look at her. He first asked the other party nodded, then this was started talking.
"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Rhodes Ellant, Lord of Glennvell, and Guild Leader of Starlight Guild. Can you name may I ask?"
"I ......... My name is Ann."
Although the youngster's expressionless expression seemed to make the girl a little nervous, she quickly answered.
"Hello, Hello, esteemed Lord Sir, my name is Ann Clark."
"Hello, Miss Clark."
I heard Ann ’s answer, Rhodes silent for a moment, then continued.
"I know you must have a lot of questions in your mind now, but before that, I hope I can know what happened from you. Can you tell me what you still remember before this?"
"When, of course ........."
In the face of Rhodes' inquiry, Ann was hesitant, but soon she was nodded, and then the girl began to tell Rhodes about her experience. The the entire matter has to start from a few days ago. At that time, the girl was out shopping with her companions, but they didn't expect to be stared at by several Thiefs. Then they found an opportunity to knock the stuns and bring them back to their old nest. At first, Ann thought that they had kidnapped themselves in order to get their father's property, but soon she discovered that something was wrong. Because after Thief kidnapped the girl, she took her out of Kohl City and came to a relatively remote mountain forest, and gave the girl to a group of men in armor who looked very scary. And what happened after that made An stunned. The men of ——— not only killed Thief who kidnapped themselves, but also took her to a terrible place in the mountains, and then put the girl into the dungeon. It was only at this time that Ann learned that he had been arrested as a sacrifice for the advent of some terrible monster. This naturally frightened the girl. Although she tried her best, there was no way to escape. She could only stay in the cold and wet dungeon, desperately and fearfully spent every day, I do n’t know how long, and finally, the door of the dungeon opened, and then the girl saw a nun wearing a bright red robe with several terrible men away Come in and tell her that the ceremony is about to begin. The girl naturally struggled desperately, trying to resist, but soon she was stunned by someone, and what happened afterward ......... Ann had no memory at all.
In the course of the girl ’s story, Rhodes said nothing and kept watching her. This made Ann feel a lot of pressure, but she still tried to tell the story that happened to her. After listening to the girl's statement, Rhodes nodded. At this time, he suddenly remembered the episode before he went to Holy Spirit Monastery. Was a long time/half of the day the same as Little Bubble Gum little rascal with mercenary staff to find her?
But they are also really good, a group of mercenary less than 20th level dare to play Dungeon of 50th or 60th level, no wonder player did not see the body of mercenary in Dungeon ......... This is still dead. God is right.
After Ann stopped, Rhodes also briefly introduced the situation afterwards. Of course, he did n’t tell the truth. He just said that he was Lord of Glennvell. He learned that there was such a group of cultists in Glennvell Mountain Range, so He took people to deal with it, and in the process found Ann, who was placed on the altar, and then brought her back.
"I can understand your mood, this lady, you just woke up and your body has not fully recovered. I think you can rest here for a while, and I will send someone to inform Ling Zun and wait for your recovery Send someone to send you home. Is may I ask like this? "
"Of course, esteemed Lord Sir."
Hearing Rhodes''s inquiry, the stone in her heart suddenly fell to the ground. She smiled quickly, and then replied. After hearing her answer, Rhodes nodded with satisfaction, but his expression remained unchanged.
"Then please rest in peace, I will let Chris be with you. If you have any need, you can tell her, then, I still have something to say, leave first."
"Ah ..............."
As Rhodes turned and left, An can't help but was a little dazed, she stared blankly at the back of Rhodes', but couldn't say anything. Although the meeting between the two sides was only a few minutes, Ann was impressed with Rhodes at the moment. Even in the eyes of the girl who escaped from death, Rhodes is simply the most ideal gentleman in her mind. Be polite and considerate female ——— The only drawback is probably that this young Noble doesn't seem to like to smile .........
However, Rhodes obviously does not care what other people think of themselves, because with the approach of the cold winter, another very important thing also appeared in front of Rhodes'.
That is Cold Winter Festival of Mercenary Association.
In Dragon Soul Continent, winter is the season where all things sleep, and for mercenaries it is also a busy day after a year of rest. Due to the harsh winter weather, accident/surprise is prone to occur. So most of mercenary will not go to the quest in the winter in the deep mountain old forest to explore and adventure. On the contrary, they will rest for a month to two months, and continue to quest until the coldest period passes. Mercenary Association also took advantage of this opportunity to make an assessment of Mercenary Guild in major regions and decided to Rank of Mercenary Group and Mercenary Guild. Those Mercenary Guild who were not qualified and did not complete quest will be downgraded to Mercenary Group, and the outstanding Mercenary Group will be upgrade Mercenary Guild.
The previous Burning Blade was upgraded and downgraded every time on Cold Winter Festival, tossing back and forth between Mercenary Guild and Mercenary Group, so that the mercenaries of Parfield Area could not be lifted elsewhere, until Rhodes' starlight suddenly emerged, which finally made Parfield Area stable Down. This time, Rhodes led mercenaries to complete two 5-Star-level quests, and naturally there is no need to worry that they will be disbanded like Burning Blade. However, Rhodes is also very clear, this time to participate in Cold Winter Festival is also unusual for him.
Because Rhodes has heard a lot of sound of the wind which is not good for yourself guild. RS
