Looking at the system prompts that appeared in front of him, Rod was helpless, which was much lower than the starting point of the game. In the game, the players organize the guild, and the system will pass the application after confirming that the other party has reached the requirements, and give away a stronghold at the same time. Now that's fine, I don't even have a stronghold. However, if you think about it carefully, players in the game obtain qualifications by completing several missions, and they are purely white wolves with empty gloves. This is not surprising. And now ...
At the top of the list, Rhodes needed to buy a stronghold as the center of the mercenary regiment.
Of course, this costs money. Fortunately for Rhodes, he was not completely without a chance.
A crisp knock came, and Li Jie walked into the room. After a night of rest, the girl who changed her clothes also showed a lot of energy. With a lively sweet smile on her face, she greeted Rhodes.
"Mr. Rhodes, I'm ready."
"Okay, let's go."
Rhodes said, stood up, and walked out the door. Li Jie stared at the young man in front of her with curiosity and doubt, followed by him.
Li Jie was totally ignorant of Rhode's idea. Although she did not agree, she did not object. Because before talking about the actual problems, there is a more practical problem to deal with-no money.
Coupled with the previous rewards given by Metz and the gains in the two gargoyle safes in the misty town, Rhodes and Li Jie currently have a thousand gold coins in their hands. Although after coming to Deep Stone City, Rhodes commissioned Li Jie to sell most of the gems and crystals in his hands, and finally gained 2,500 gold coins. But this is not enough to buy a house. Not to mention, Rhodes also put his idea on the highest floor. You must know that it is an aristocratic area, even in the most marginal areas, the house prices are all sky-high. Where can someone buy it?
But now, following Rhode on the road to the upper area, looking at the confident expression of the young man, Li Jie couldn't hold back her curiosity. She also wanted to see how Rhode would use the money. Going to buy a house in the upper floors? But if you are only buying real estate, why would you be asked to prepare for supplies in advance? There is nothing to explore in Deep Rock.
Isn't it going to be grabbed.
Recalling what Rhodes had done before, this possible surname also seemed to exist.
Upper level, southwest corner.
Different from the clean, tidy and magnificent mansions in the surroundings, what appeared to Rhode and Li Jie was an old house that had been corroded by the years. The walls were lined with dense vines, and weeds that had not been treated had almost reached knees. The original large courtyard now looks like a wolf, full of **** and feces left by wild cats and wild dogs. The whole sky was gloomy, and there was no trace of sunlight.
The cold wind blew, accompanied by a cry of wild dogs who didn't know where they came from, making Li Jie shiver.
The moment she walked into this courtyard, the girl was very keenly aware of the changes in the ice and fire. The upper area outside was quiet, clean, peaceful and peaceful. But the courtyard was unusually cold, messy, and silent. The gap between the two is as clear as the splendid palace and chaotic graveyard.
"Ro, Mr. Rhode, are you really going to buy this?"
The girl hugged her body subconsciously and asked with a low voice.
"Not intended."
But unexpectedly, Rhodes just waved his hands without looking back.
"I have already bought it."
"....................."
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
"Hey?!!"
Li Jie opened her eyes in surprise and couldn't believe the answer she heard.
"You, have you bought it?"
"Yes, the other party only needs five hundred gold coins, which is really a good deal."
"Five hundred coins ?!"
After hearing this, Li Jie stayed for a while, then she covered her mouth in surprise.
"This is Serrell's Haunted House !?"
Speaking of Serrell's haunted house, there is almost no one in the entire Deep Stone City. Cyrel was previously a third-rate family in Deep Rock. What is different from other families is that this family started with artistic sculptures--in other words, they relied on the craftsmanship of stone carving to grow up.
Among them, the former patriarch of the Serrell family, Martin Serrell, has talents unimaginable in sculpture, especially in the human body. The carved figures are all vivid and vivid. He has also been called a master figure in Deep Rock.
But all this changed because of a stone.
At the age of twenty-nine, Cyrel was given a piece of white rock dug out of the Deep Rock City pit. I do n’t know what crazy this master of art did, so he moved this stone home on the spot and said that he would create a timeless and perfect artwork.
At the beginning, everyone didn't take this matter to heart. After all, as a master of art, Serir was what he was after. However, the nobles had a lot of private talk, and began to talk about the masterpiece of this master of art. And Serir's performance was also normal at the beginning. He locked himself in the room, and stood against the stone for a whole week without going out. This also made more people start to look forward to the new works of art masters. They I think that if we can make the art masters work so hard, they will sculpt the most perfect works.
But then things started to get weirder.
Serir's maids disappeared one after another, and no one knew they had gone there. As a noble family, the Serir family also sent many people to look for it, but it was strange that these people disappeared as if the world had evaporated.
Not only these maids, but even the surrounding people from time to time reported that someone was missing. For a time, the upper quarters were full of hearts and minds. After that, a major incident occurred in the family of Cerel, and his wife and the pearl on the palm were actually Also missing.
At this moment, the people in the family can't hold their breath anymore, they don't care about what perfect art work Master Serir is sculpting, and they come to the door one after another, hoping that he can come and check it. But when Serier's door was opened, everyone was stunned.
I saw the whole room with stumps and limbs everywhere, and Cerre's wife and daughter, at this moment, just fell to the ceiling and turned into two cold bodies. The master of art sat peacefully in a chair, stroking a sculpture of a woman beside him.
The next thing is simple.
The crowd quickly seized Serrell, and he also acknowledged that he had killed the missing women himself, but he thought that these people's deaths were all worthy, for the sublimation and perfection of art, they dedicated Your own life is a noble and respectable act.
This explanation is personally unsatisfactory, so soon, the owner of Deep Stone City sentenced Serel to death, but the next scene stunned everyone. When he learned that he was about to die, Serel was crazy. Escaped from prison. In order to catch Cyrel, the Deep Rock City Guard, the Mercenary Association, and even many nobles sent people to hunt. But what everyone didn't expect was that the art master, who had no power at all, actually killed more than a dozen advanced men and hundreds of soldiers, and was finally exhausted under the round. In his carving room, he stopped breathing.
This tragedy shocked Deep Stone City, and the topic of cursing began to spread. Many people believed that the stone was full of surnames. It seduced the master of art and turned him into a devil who did not blink. . The sculpture, which everyone calls the culprit, disappeared from the guard's eyelids inexplicably the day after Cerel's death! ?
For a while, the entire Deep Stone City began to become unstable, and the sculptures of Cerel's life were also smashed by many people. After that, this matter was forgotten by everyone's last name.
It's a pity that although Cerel is dead, it seems that he still does not forget to attract the attention of others.
First, a nobleman who had a good relationship with Serrean came to take care of the property, but one month after they moved in, their family was found starving to death in the restaurant, and they rotted in front of them. Stinky food, but no one moved.
The second victim was a wealthy businessman who moved here from two years later. In order to be able to integrate into the local high society as soon as possible, he disregarded buying the property. However, his ending is also better than his predecessor. He was found half a month later. The wealthy family and the servants they brought all hanged themselves in their rooms, as if everyone was in love and even went to heaven. It's the same when we count down together.
And the terrible incident that connected twice made everyone away from this fierce house subconsciously, and even Shenshicheng was very difficult for this property. In desperation, they had to set a minimum price and put it there, who would buy it. Who bought it ... Don't say, selling such a property with five hundred gold coins is really a temptation for many people who have no money and longing for it, so someone boldly bought the property, but this time the house The master is a little smarter. He not only spent a lot of money to buy real estate, but also paid to renovate the whole house inside and out, and spent a bunch of smart and powerful mercenaries, which made him move in.
But this time it was even more unlucky, maybe even the house itself was irritated by the low price sale, not even a buffer period, and there was a come-and-go, the next day the homeowner moved in, There is no more light in this house-as for those mercenaries, naturally there is no sound.
This time, everyone didn't even want to confirm, anyway, the result must be a lice on the bald head, something obvious.
Li Jie has been in Shenshicheng for so many years. Naturally, she knew the rumors of this fierce house. Now she knew that Rhodes had done such a dangerous thing behind her, and immediately jumped up.
"Mr. Rhodes, do you know where this is? But here ..."
"Of course I know."
Rhodes waved his hands, thinking that I knew not only the cause but also the consequences, and even the hidden rewards and bosses in it were clear. Cerel's Haunted House is one of the top ten exclusive missions in Deep Rock, and it is also Rhode's first hidden mission. He is naturally impressed by it. However, unlike when he was in a hurry to guard against the middle move at the time, he is now fully prepared to handle this hidden task and boss.
"Don't worry, it's just a house, and ... I'm ready."
Speaking of which, Rhodes and Li Jie have walked through the cluttered garden to the gate, and through the rotten gate, the darkness inside is clearly visible. Rhode reached out and placed it on the door, then he turned his head and looked at Li Jie, who was nervous.
"are you ready?"
