It was still not bright the next day, Rhodes had already brought everyone to the door of Deep Rock City, and there, Serek was already ready to go. He still wears the white leather armor he wore when he first met Rhodes. The long sword of magic hangs around his waist. At the moment, Serek looks like he has a little mercenary. Seeing the arrival of Rhodes', Serek stepped forward and waved at them.
"You came on time."
Serek rushed to Rhodes nodded with satisfaction, then he looked at Leiya, Marlene and Old Walker, who were standing next to Rhodes, until Serek finally turned his attention to Annie, which was slightly surprised, a little surprise flashed on the face, but he quickly recovered Smiled and greeted everyone with a smile, and then looked at Rhodes again.
"It seems that you are all ready."
"Yes."
Rhodes responded calmly. In fact, when he returned to Stronghold to announce the news last night, everyone's reaction was completely different. Leiya is naturally worried, but Marlene does not know where Silent Highland is, so she is full of fighting spirit. Old Walker complained that Rhodes simply wanted to commit suicide = pulling them to take their back together, but he was suffering from no way to persuade him to give up his decision. As for Annie, she seems to be completely unaware of the quest that was so dangerous the first time she came to the new Mercenary Group. She should eat, sleep, and sleep, and look at her, as if what they are about to go is not a disturbing one. Silent Highland, but it is like going to the wilderness.
"What about the person I want?"
"Here."
Serek made a gesture. Soon, four young women wearing mage robe came out from behind him. The oldest of them was only twenty-five or six years old, and the youngest was about the same size as Leiya. However, unlike the general adventurer, these Healer expressions reveal the fear and anxiety about the unknown, which is no wonder, after all, not every Healer is willing to go out with the adventure team, most of them stay in the safe rear ——— Like Leiya is willing to follow the Mercenary Group running around is the difference.
"According to your requirements, they are all able to use Group Healing Spell and Protective Shield, well, youngster, you have to know that this is a great asset of Association. Although my old friend is reluctant to agree to your Asked, but this does not mean that he will allow you to take them on the road of no return, I must explain in advance that my primary quest is to protect them from harm. If there is something wrong with these children, then I will take them Leave immediately, as for the rest, you can only find a way yourself. "
"No problem."
Facing Serek ’s speech, Rhodes did n’t say much. He just made a gesture of thanks to Serek, and then walked in front of the four Healers. At the moment, the four Healers were also mixed with curiosity and doubt With uneasy eyes looking at this youngster, frankly, they do not want to go to the battlefield in person, but as a member of Mercenary Association, they must obey the order ———. Of course, this is not unconditional.
In a way, Healer is a more expensive character than Mage.
"I think you all heard about where we are going."
Rhodes ignored their gaze, he just followed his own steps.
"You also know that it is dangerous, and maybe you will be killed. But I will not tell you, I will make every effort to ensure that you are not hurt, I will only tell you, if you follow my orders exactly, Then you cannot be hurt at all. "
Speaking of this, Rhodes spread out both hands.
“Please remember to do it exactly as I ordered. I want you to do whatever you want. If you can do what I ask, then you will not be in any danger. I I know you do n’t believe me, but the facts will prove, but in turn, I do n’t want anything that violates my order to happen, no matter what kind of psychology you are from, I hope you do n’t do it until I get my permission. Some things that make me feel unhappy. "
Rhodes stopped for a moment, then he looked around the four Healer with different looks.
"You are in charge of Leiya, what can you ask her, I know some of you may be superior to her in Spirit Skill, but when it comes to experience for group action and wild life, you are far inferior to her. If you do n’t want to have problems, it ’s best to obey her instructions. "
After saying this, Rhodes said nothing more, just waved the crowd to prepare for set off, and at this moment, Serek also came to at Rhodes' side and whispered in his ear with a wry smile.
"Frankly, you are too kind to these young ladies."
"I am not interested in pleasing them."
Rhodes shook his head.
"We are going to perform quest this time, not a wild tour, nor a blind date. I do n’t have time to have a relationship with them. I only need them to complete my orders. Anyway, after this quest, neither There may be no relationship anymore. "
"Don't say so absolutely."
Serek smiled.
"You just looked like a soldier."
"Is it?"
Hearing here, Rhodes brows raised.
"Yes, at least the kind of perseverance and decisiveness when facing quest ... Un, I think the general mercenary does not have such a skill."
Rhodes said nothing more, but turned around and stepped into the carriage.
Silent Highland is not close to Deep Rock City. In addition, many people in the team are not good at moving in the wild, so Serek arranged a caravan for transportation. This car has six wheels and eight horses. The sturdy and strong northern horse is moving forward. The Mercenary Association is not as regular as the army. This is also a kind of transportation tool they often use to transport people.
Although Silent Highland is also the direction of tempest, Mercenary Association did not use airship. First, airship was temporarily suspended due to several commercial ship attacks. Secondly, there was no terminal in the ghost place, and Rhodes and others did not. Practice a high-altitude flying ability, not to mention that this world does not have such a parachute, even if you survive, you may not be greeted by the flat and soft ground but the roar and death of undead creature.
It ’s not something to boast about dying before you die.
Compared to this, caravans are slower, but they are safe and reliable.
Unfortunately, things often don't shift with people's will.
The road to Silent Highland is not smooth, perhaps because almost no one will come to this ghost place. It has long been deserted. The overgrown road is uneven. The bumps along the way even make mercenary like Leiya and Old Walker It ’s hard to eat, not to mention that there are hardly any experience Marlene and the other four Healer. The bumps along the way made them disregard their own image and spit on the side of the car, but Anne was the calmest. She curled up in the corner alone sound asleep, completely unaffected.
Although according to the plan booked by originally, everyone should immediately set off after arriving at Silent Highland, but watching the legs get soft when walking off the car, complexion is green, and almost collapsed to the ground without even seeing the enemy Several young ladies, Rhodes and Serek can only helplessly choose to rest a long time/half of the day, and then go to save people.
"I hope that group of guys can support us and rush."
Rhodes looked at the rolling Black Forest in the distance, and said slightly sadly. It was too late at the moment, but unlike the ordinary forest, the bird song of just a little and the growl of wild beast could not be heard here. Rhodes knew what was behind it, and had nothing but death. Can those people really hold on until they arrive? Rhodes does n’t have much confidence in this. In the game, he has done similar quest many times. Although he has arrived at the location every time, NPC does not necessarily insist on his arrival every time. At the target location, all I saw was the body of NPC, which was indeed a very depressing thing.
"Do n’t worry."
Serek is more open than Rhodes.
"I know Captain of 'Victory Wine' Mercenary Group, it's a very alert youngster, he won't die so easily. And even if we know that there is not much hope of surviving, we have to give it a try, after all, anyway, We are Mercenary Association. "
This is the responsibility.
Rhodes has nothing more to say. Mercenary Association seems to be a very powerful organization on the surface, and it is also very prestigious among mercenary, but this is not just because they have the power to dissolve their status in Mercenary Group and upgrade. Obligations have always been relative. mercenaries follows the orders of Mercenary Association, and Mercenary Association will naturally act for Mercenary Group. Rescue operations like this are one of them. Whether they are still alive or not, since Mercenary Association has received their request for help, they must send someone to rescue. This kind of dependence and connection between life and death is far closer than the contract clauses in black and white ... In fact, the reason why many Mercenary Group cling to their teeth even in trouble is the same.
Trust is not free.
"I ... I can't do it anymore, Leiya."
Leaning against a tree, Marlene feels the ground beneath her feet is soft, and the sky above her head is also spinning. An unparalleled sense of nausea has been echoing on her chest, which is more than she had eaten the magic plant by mistake. The painful stimulation has made the poor girl a little overwhelmed. She leaned against the tree trunk, head back looked upward, barely suppressing the vomiting that was almost coming up from her throat, while Leiya was half kneeling beside her, giving her Spirit Skill that made people feel more comfortable.
"Hold on, Marlene, come, take a deep breath and rest there."
"Deep Hu... ... Wuah ... !!!"
Looking at how painful Marlene is now, I must have spit out the overnight meal last night.
The other few Healers are not much better, but fortunately, compared with Marlene, at least they still have some experience in this level of self-help. But looking at how tired they are at the moment and lying down on the ground, I am afraid that they have been seen by unsuspecting people, thinking that they have been hit by undead creature and turned into a corpse.
Only one person showed no pressure.
"Huah ..."
With her mouth wide open, yawning, Annie climbed down from the caravan. She stretched out comfortably, and the other ladies who looked at that with a comfortable expression all appeared to be in agreement. The thought ——— is more mad than people.
"Ah, Captain, have we arrived? When will we leave?"
"After three hours, let them take a break."
Facing Ann who running and jumping came to him, Rhodes quickly answered, then he pointed to the temporary camp next to the caravan.
"You also have something to eat, and then take a break, and then we are ready to prepare set off, don't forget your quest."
"Of course, rest assured, Captain, there is Anne, there must be no problem!"
After confidently answering, Anne trot all the way to the campsite, and then pulled out a few pieces of dried meat from the bag, and ate it leisurely on the hot soup by the fire. Compared with the way her Marlene and other people leaned against the tree trunk half-dead by the side of the tree, her bones were all removed, it was indeed a bit ... ……
"I did n’t expect that you could abduct her."
Serek took two cups of hot water, walked to at Rhodes' side and sat down, and handed over one of them.
"It seems that you really have two hands."
"Do you know Annie?"
After receiving the cup from Serek, Rhodes is casually asked. In the face of his inquiry, Serek a slight nod.
"I've seen her several times before, and little girl's personality is a headache, but her talent is nothing to say. Don't look at her normally's carelessness and nothing. That's because there is nothing ——— Un that deserves her attention. Once she is really serious, little brat is very powerful. "
"I think so."
Rhodes has not had much contact with Annie, but in the previous test, he has noticed that the girl ’s strength is unusual, and .........
"Do you know her life experience?"
Watching Annie easily pick up the shield in her hand with her right hand, and then throw it on the ground. The heavy shield made contact with the ground and made the sound of muffled, and even fell into it directly. Rhodes can't help but eyebrow raised, then asked. He thinks that his constitution and strength are also good, but it is definitely not an easy task to want to pick up this fully armed tens of kilograms of impact shield with one hand. You should know that before set off, Rhodes gave her the Rock Heart Shield that she got from Cliff of Sighs, and she was also embedded in the impact shield, which is not a light equipment.
It ’s worth mentioning that Anne, who got the magic shield, was so excited that she even threw herself on Rhodes and kissed him, which made Rhodes cry and laugh, but this girl ’s character is so, he can only helpless Went with her.
"I do n’t know, I only know that Macbeth ’s predecessor Captain was discovered from mountain forest. At that time, the child was only one or two years old and lived with wild beast. Then the old guy took her out of mountain forest and raised it. Growing up. This is really not an easy thing. I remember that at the beginning, this kid was like wild beast, who bit her whoever touched her, the old guy could not be bitten by her. To be honest, not at that time. Few people let the old guy sell this girl, anyway, it ’s useless to keep it. But the old guy ’s temper is very stubborn, and he just stayed out of the public opinion and left her. She taught her to speak and learn like humans. Writing, and learning combat skill. He treats her like his own daughter. He has to say that this child has become more and more like a person, but her character ... Macbeth Mercenary Group what happened to me now I also heard that leaving that is also a good thing for her. At least she does n’t have to stay there to get angry ......... This child ’s strength has always been scary. We also doubt whether she has bloodline of barbarian, but ... "
Talking, Serek smiled.
"I have never seen such a slim barbarian, and if it is Dwarf, it is a bit too high. In fairness, she is still very beautiful."
Speaking of this, Serek stopped for a while, and then his expression became serious.
"Okay, come back to the truth, I want to know what you can do to let all of us enter Silent Highland safely? You said you are familiar with this place, I do n’t know if it ’s true or false, but I want to believe you, but as Companion, I hope to know your plan. "
"Of course no problem."
In the face of Serek's doubts, Rhodes raised his head, his face flashed with unprecedented confidence.
He has enough confident capital. In the game, the early stage of Silent Highland was also an Dungeon that made player a headache. It was even called wiped out Holy Land by many players, and almost died once. So afterwards, many player bypassed this Dungeon, because according to many people, the equipment in Dungeon is not very good, and there are no valuable items that are particularly worthy of attention, so there is basically no player later. Looking for trouble with this Dungeon.
As the well-deserved first kill king in the game, Rhodes naturally won this Dungeon, and it was he who created the popular "9+1" tactics in player.
The so-called "9+1" tactics are nine Healer plus one profession that can carry out long-range and large-scale strikes. In this Dungeon, Rhodes uses Healers protection, endurance and Sacred Strength use the restraint of undead creature to the limit. Under the attack and protection of the nine Healers, the combat power of undead creature can be suppressed to a minimum, and the reason why the full Healer lineup is not selected is for the sake of insurance. Once the accident/surprise appears, there can be a guarantee of insurance.
Just after this, Silent Highland, which was once called "wiped out Holy Land", became a lot of places where Healer came to farming experience. After all, they are auxiliary profession. It is difficult to level in normally except Dungeon, and "9+1" of Silent Highland Tactics can maximize their experience. Later, it was also regarded as a lot of trial venues of player Healer. No matter if you are PK or quest, as long as you can successfully pass Silent Highland, then originally can be regarded as proficient in Healer skills and experience.
As a long time, Rhodes certainly did not bring his Healer in guild to upgrade and practice combat skill here. For this, he is almost closed. eyes knows how to go. And one of the interesting things happened once. Once, Rhodes brought his guild's Healer here to brush, but the result reached the final stage. I don't know what the reason is. BOSS has been stuck and has never appeared. This is also the first time such a thing has happened in this game. Rhodes took his team members to wait for more than ten minutes, BOSS did not come out, and finally could only withdraw helplessly from Dungeon. And after this incident spread, many player in the forum also joked that BOSS was afraid of being killed by Rhodes, so they did n’t dare to show up in hiding ...
So for Rhodes, the fascinating Silent Highland is not really something to fear.
Although this time set off, he only has five Healers, which is far from the requirements of the "9+1" tactics, but Rhodes is not worried at all. After all, this tactic was created by him, he naturally knows that What are the core requirements. Mercenary Association can't give him eight or nine Healer, but four are definitely not too small, and Leiya has bloodline of Angel. The power of Spirit Skill she cast can be equal to two Healer, not to mention Mage like Marlene on the side In theory, there should be no problems. What's more, Serek also participated in this operation, a sword technique master of level 40 is enough to offset the remaining part.
Because of this, Rhodes is still very confident about such a combination.
"This battle, we mainly use Healer."
"To Healer?"
After hearing Rhodes''s answer, a little surprise appeared on Serek.
"Although I guessed it when I heard you mention it earlier ... But youngster and Healer are not Soul Spirit Knight, they do n’t have much combat skill, let alone these people who came this time have basically no experience After the battle, you have to push them to face the undead creature? "
"No, they can do better behind."
Rhodes shook his head.
"But I hope Mr. Serek can help me see more of them behind, our pressure will not be too great, but I am very worried that they will be out of the situation, as you said, they have not been on the battlefield. "
"Will the pressure be too great?"
Hearing here, Serek gave Rhodes a strange look. Silent Highland has been here before himself. Those undead creature waves that seem to be endless like the ocean, even the Serek, who is a master of sword technique, feel very difficult. But now, this youngster is so easy to say that the pressure is not too great?
Does he know the horror of the sea of death at could it be?
Is this bluff? Or does he really have a way to face it?
Old Walker came out of the shadow of the forest with a serious expression.
"I found the trail they left behind."
He walked to Rhodes' and whispered.
PS: I encountered a very embarrassing thing this afternoon. Someone said that it was my book friend, add me QQ, and then ask me to lend him money, on the grounds that he rewarded me, and now I am rewarding him It's time for ——— and I'm embarrassed on the spot .........
