MTL - Summoning the Holy Sword-Chapter 12 Ring of Will
Black Shadow shuttled through the forest, they separated from time to time, and then gathered again.
"Did you find out?"
"There are residual traces in the east direction, which is likely to be the target. From a time perspective, it should be no more than one day."
"They are really fast. Keep moving. Be careful. The other person can kill the Lord of the Wind Snake. Don't take it lightly."
"Yes!"
After the three black shadows were finished talking, they turned into black shadows again and disappeared into the depths of the jungle. Their movements were silent, and they did not even alarm the birds inhabiting the trees.
And just after the shadows left, the green bird standing on the branch quietly spread its wings and flew to the sky.
"Someone following?"
At the report of the Soul Bird, Rhodes sank slightly. At this moment, on his shoulder, the translucent turquoise soul bird was just standing there quietly, shaking his head from time to time, stretching his wings, and it seemed to be no different from ordinary birds. Only the translucent body and the radiance of the elements surrounding it show that the bird in front of it is not [***] characteristic.
Summoning the Soul Bird for surveillance is a method that Rhodes came up with on the way to the road. Normal players will be equipped with reconnaissance classes such as thieves or rangers to ensure that there is no danger ahead. But now Rhodes obviously does not have such good conditions, so he has to retreat and use his summoned creatures to explore the road. Fortunately, the soul bird not only has an advantage in terms of line of sight, but also adds the ability to sense the soul that the soul element creatures inherently possess, which can also make Rhodes more at ease. Originally, Rhodes wanted to see if they had caused any trouble after killing the tenth-level wolf before killing the ten-level wolf, but they accidentally encountered a larger one. problem.
Although sensing the soul can not show the specific form of the target, it can only be judged by the light of the strength of the soul, but Rhodes feels a little bad from the speed of the opponent, and it is probably not that it can move so fast in the forest Rangers, secret agents and the like-anyway, all are invisible professions. Coupled with the other party's orderly actions, it is hard to imagine being an ordinary adventurer.
Did you happen to pass by? Or was it specifically for them?
Rhodes didn't dare to take risks. But this kind of occupation hidden in the dark is the most difficult to deal with. Coupled with Li Jie's previous reminder, he always felt that this incident was a little strange. If these guys were hostile to them, then the development of the situation would be difficult to imagine.
However, when Rhode saw Li Jie beside him, he couldn't help shining.
He already has an idea.
"Mr. Rhodes, where shall we go next?"
Passing the kettle to the fat businessman who was flushed and sweaty, sitting next to him, Li Jie asked. Although Rhodes didn't say much, Li Jie always did the job of caring for this fat businessman along the way. According to the girl herself, her mercenary regiment has taken over the mandate to protect the gentleman, so even if she is the only one left, as long as the task has not been completed, she must continue to perform.
Metz was naturally grateful for this, but looking at him now panting, I'm afraid he won't be able to live for too long.
"Rhod ... sir, exhausted ... I ... I'm off, let's take a break ... take a break!"
As early as when Rhodes stopped, the fat businessman who was already on the ground held the handbag in his hand like a baby, took out a handkerchief, wiped the sweat on his face, and put a fat face on The rubbing oil shines, and even shines like a big light bulb in the sun
"Holy, sacred soul bless, I ... I have ... I haven't left for a few years ... Leave ......... keke ... !!!" Speaking here, the fat businessman didn't breathe, and coughed violently several times. , Even shaking the fat on his face. It took a while to return to God. "Walk ... so long, I think ... I think I'm going to die!"
"Five minutes."
Rhode glanced at the sky, then calculated the next distance and time in his heart, and then gave the order. When he heard him, the fat businessman who was sitting on the ground immediately screamed, and then lay down on the ground. Lijie also exhaled softly and sat on the stone beside her.
After that, they did not encounter any special dangers. With the Soul Bird's way out, Rhodes smoothly led them to avoid many dangerous areas, although they also lost some opportunities to get precious equipment, but Rhodes is not distressed, because there aren't as many players in this world, and ordinary adventurers don't move through the mountains and forests, so it's not too late to take the two out of the mountain and take a rest and then come back to get it. but………
Rhode looked up at the mountains not far away and stood up.
"Lijie."
"Yes, Mr. Rhode, what do you command?"
"I'll go and see. After taking a five-minute break, you took Mr. Mess up the mountain and saw the white stone? Go there and then in the shadows, you will find an abandoned mountain road, where you wait Me, I'll be there in a minute. "
Li Jie raised her head, and in the direction of Rod's finger, she quickly found the white stone on the side of the mountain. She turned her head and looked at Rod in doubt, not knowing how he knew it. However, the girl just opened her mouth, but did not ask questions. After travelling for a few days, she knew that the man in front of her was a worthy person. Although she didn't know what he was going to do, the girl nodded and watched Rhodes turned and left.
Rhode certainly had his own plan. The stone was the entrance to the Zenal Mountain Road. It used to be a glorious commercial road. The ancestors of the northern people were poor and had the strength of their lives. They cut such a road in this mountain A road that crosses the mountains and connects the plains with other areas. It once created a momentary glory. However, with the development and utilization of the tide, the barrier-free sky is obviously more secure than the forest in crisis, so this commercial road is gradually abandoned, and those who depend on it have already left here and went to find Better lives, abandoned their homes, until it became a barren place again.
The progress of civilization always makes the miracles of the past meaningless. It is the same in every world.
However, Rhodes is not here to travel to understand the philosophy of life.
He stopped, and at the moment, a barrenness appeared in front of Rhodes' eyes.
And corpses.
Sensen's bones were almost buried in dust, only torn leather armor and corroded weapons scattered around. This was a mercenary regiment named "Huya". They were attacked by mountain thieves during the adventure, and then they lost both. Died here. Originally in the game, Rhodes needed to receive a mission from the mercenary guild, then investigate their final entrustment according to the clues, then follow the way on the map to find it, and finally find the token and treasure. Reply. But that is a game after all, and step by step is a necessary step. But even so, many veterans will not be so complicated. They would rather take the tokens, and return to the mercenary guild directly. Not only does this save time, it is also convenient and quick, and it can save so many troublesome steps. Why not?
But Rhodes didn't come here to save those few steps.
Walking deep into the battlefield, Rhode saw a white bone lying on the edge of the mountain wall, wearing corroded steel armor, and a black, rusty iron sword falling on his hand. . That was Rhode's goal, and the head of the mercenary regiment.
Walking to the corpse and squatting, Rhode glanced at it first, then stretched out his hand, and soon found out a mercenary badge from the corpse of the opponent-this is the token of the "Tiger Fang" mercenary group , Is also necessary to complete the commission. Rhode put it carefully in his pocket, and then he looked down, and soon found his goal.
It was a dirty ring on the phalanx.
Rhode carefully took the ring. On the surface, the ring had no use, and it was no different from the scrap copper and iron in the garbage dump. But the system prompt that appeared immediately told Rhodes that was not the case.
[Black iron ring, unidentified, magic wave is sensed]
"resonance."
Rhode closed his eyes, held the ring in his right hand, whispered, and then infused his own soul power.
The ring in his hand trembled slightly, the original weak magic wave became clear, and when he opened his eyes again, the hand was no longer the waste copper and iron. Instead, a dark, sculptural ring lay quietly above his palms.
[Ring of Will, identified, can activate Shield of Will for 5 minutes, immune to mental attacks, charge time-3 days]
Get it.
Rhode put the ring on the finger of his right hand, and then he was relieved. Then he looked around for a moment, determined that there was no more valuable thing, then turned around and returned to the mountainside.
There, Rhodes could clearly see Li Jie and Metz struggling in the direction of the white stone. Obviously, the fat businessman had no experience in climbing mountains. He followed Li Jie tremblingly and looked at him like that. If it wasn't for men and women who had a bad Gala, he might cry and begged Li Jie to take herself up.
What a waste.
Rhodes shook his head helplessly, and was about to join them, and at this moment, the warning message from the soul bird suddenly sounded deep inside him.
"———!"
Rod was startled, and he hurriedly looked in the direction of the forest. Soon, he saw three black shadows flying out of it.
Not good!
