Summoning the Holy Sword

When Rhode saw Shana again, the head of the mercenary was still so spirited, but a hint of helplessness and fatigue appeared between the eyebrows.

"Hello, Mr. Rhodes."

Shana stood up with a smile and greeted her generously.

"Frankly, when I knew it from Old Walker, I thought I was dreaming."

"I was also very surprised."

Rhode nodded, responding while holding the other hand.

"I never thought I would get your response from Miss Shana."

After hearing this, Shana's smile was helpless, but she was already a mercenary. So soon, Shana changed her mood and began to introduce herself to Rhode. Three companions come. But before Shana spoke, Rhode reached out and interrupted her.

"No need to introduce, I know all of them, Henry, Martin and Ravi ... yes."

Hearing Rhodes call out their names casually, the three of them were widened in surprise, to know that they and Rhodes had only fought side by side only once, and barely even spoke a word Anyway, but Rhodes can still remember their names, which really makes everyone feel a little incredible.

"I didn't expect you to remember us, Mr. Rhodes."

Henry hurriedly said with a smile, saying that he was another swordsman who cooperated with Shana and Rhodes in the battle with the Lich in the Pavel Cemetery. It was the battle that made Henry convince Rode from the bottom of his heart, so he was very interested in this transaction and was very active.

"Of course I remember."

Instead of explaining, Rhode glanced at the four.

"But I don't think there is one more person that impresses me?"

Hearing here, Shana and others could not help but embarrassed smiles. They exchanged glances with each other. Anyone could hear the true meaning of Rhode's sentence. Fortunately, the problem had been solved. Otherwise, I'm afraid it's impossible for Sana to sit here and meet Rod now.

"If you mean Barney, I don't think you need to look for him, Mr. Rhodes, he has left the mercenary regiment."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing Shana's answer, Rhodes froze.

"I didn't expect that he would leave the mercenary group."

"Is such that."

Shana apparently engages in such negotiations often, and she answers while asking Rhodes to sit down.

"Before the old Walker came, we had also received an invitation to 'Emerald Tears'. Barney was very interested in this invitation. But we were not keen on it, so in the end ... we had to let him find him The path I want. "

In fact, Shana's words are a bit untrue. After Pavel's cemetery, the "Red Eagle" suffered heavy losses, and Shana's prestige began to diminish. Originally, as a woman, it was difficult for her to confuse her in mercenaries. Now that such an error has occurred, the status is no longer stable. Originally, Sana planned to take a good rest, and then called some people to rise again. But he did not expect that even his subordinates were very dissatisfied with his decision. Among them, Barney is very obvious. More than once, he personally made a request to Shana that he wanted to be the mercenary commander, and even assured Shana that he would bring the mercenary group back. But how could Shana not see Barney's careful thinking, so she rejected Barney's request. This made Barney very dissatisfied, and at this moment the emerald tears came to the door, which made many mercenaries tempted. In their view, the emerald tears are so rich and powerful, they can be done later. Become more powerful. It would be great if they could join them. Shana didn't think so. It was purely due to the prudence of women. She always felt that it was very weird to buy such a rotten mercenary group at the price of Jade's Tears, so she did not agree.

Eventually the two sides tore their skins, Barney took most of the Red Hawk mercenary group and left for the Emerald Tears. In the face of the Red Eagle with only four people left, Shana was also disheartened. It happened that at this time Old Walker came to the door, so Shana agreed to Rhode's proposal without any hesitation.

However, these are ugly home ugliness after all, so Shana didn't plan to say it. As for Rhodes, he was also not interested in these boring things, so the two sides quickly got into the topic.

It may just be a bit too direct.

"I can tell you quite frankly."

Rhode reached out and took the wine glass on the table.

"Your strength is not very strong in my opinion, so I have no intention of sending you all to perform the task."

"I understand."

Shana is obviously prepared psychologically. She knows that she and others are far from a mage like Malin, let alone Anne who joined the mercenary regiment recently. Her big name was already known to everyone when she was in the Macbeth Mercenary Regiment. Being able to have such a powerful shield fighter can be said to be the dream of many mercenary regiments. It is a pity that the Red Eagle can't be as wealthy as Xingguang, so it can make so much money in one breath.

There are only four men left in the Red Hawk mercenary regiment, Shana and Henry are swordsmen, Martin is a shield warrior, and Ravi is a barbarian. In terms of strength, Shana is the strongest, but the strengths of the other three are almost the same, without much difference. Even Shana herself knew very well that she could only walk sideways in her nest, and when she met a powerful mercenary group like Rhodes, she was not much different from a miscellaneous soldier.

So, how does Rod plan to arrange himself?

Thinking of this, Shana was a little upset. But she didn't worry too long, because Rhodes quickly gave the answer.

"I think you know very well, Miss Shana. The Star Mercenary Regiment is a small mercenary regiment, and we have always been understaffed. Because of this, every time we are on a mission, no one is in charge of the base This makes me very uneasy. If you can, I hope that after joining the mercenary regiment, you will be able to take charge of the security work of the stronghold. So what do you think? "

Hearing Rhode's answer without any clutter, Shana and others looked at each other, and the atmosphere fell into an awkward silence for a while. But Rhode didn't seem to care at all, just picked up the wine glass by himself, took a sip of the fruit wine in the glass, and slowly enjoyed the scenery outside the window.

After a while, Shana frowned, and said in disgust.

"Frankly, Mr. Rhode, I thank you very much for your trust, but ... is this a bit too burdensome for us?"

No wonder Shana has such an idea, although on the surface it seems that the mercenaries responsible for guarding the stronghold are subconsciously of little status. However, the fact is quite the opposite. You need to know that the base is the lifeblood of the mercenary group, so the mercenaries generally responsible for guarding the base must be trustworthy. So it's no wonder that Shana has such concerns. Even though she and Li Jie have a friendship, it is only personal. Aren't they afraid that they will do something while they are away?

But Rhode didn't seem to care about Shana's concerns.

"I have already said that my mercenary regiment lacks manpower. And since you are willing to remind me, then I naturally believe that you will not do this kind of thing. I think you are also very clear, Miss Shana. This is very important Not only a few of you, but I will also call on some mercenaries to be responsible for guarding, and they will be handed over to you by then. I think as a mercenary commander, you should be able to handle these Someone. "

"This…………"

After hearing this, Shana really hesitated. If she said that Rhode was joking just now, but Shana has no idea now. You need to know what Rhode means, but leave all the mercenaries in charge of the care to her to manage, such a position has already been regarded as the top three in the mercenary regiment. But how can you get this position as soon as you come up?

For a while, the red-haired mercenary, who had always been extremely active, had to think carefully about his choice.

Looking at the silent Shana, Rhode said nothing more. He certainly wasn't thinking about the issues that Shana was considering. But for Rhodes, there was no need to worry. Because he has a mercenary regiment construction system that can observe the situation inside the mercenary regiments anytime, anywhere. Security system to imprison everyone.

So Rhodes wasn't worried that they would collapse from the inside. Instead, what he was most worried about was external pressure. It is true that it is difficult for outsiders to invade the stronghold even if there is no security, but after all, there is no manpower in it. The empty city plans to sing once and twice. If you sing too much, you will become a child of the wolf. At that time, even if the defense team is activated, but there is no one to help, the result is nothing more than bamboo and blue water.

Shana may not be the best choice, but at least it is currently acceptable.

"I understand."

After a brief conversation with her companion, Shana looked up, her expression becoming serious and serious.

"Now that you trust us so much, Mr. Rhodes, we won't embarrass you. I can assure you that we will do our best to protect the stronghold!"

Hearing Shana's answer, Rhode nodded, then he stood up and reached out to the red-haired mercenary.

"So, welcome to join Starlight."

Now that the two sides have reached an agreement, the details are no longer an issue, and soon the two sides reached a consensus on the issue of compensation and salary. Every month, Shana and others can get a salary of ten gold coins, which is less than when they are mercenaries, but because of the small dangerous surname, it is already a very rich reward. On the other hand, Shana and others naturally have to take responsibility for guarding the mercenary base. If they neglect their duties and cause damage to the mercenary regiment, they must compensate for the loss. Everyone has no objection to such a clause. The next step is to apply for the dissolution of the mercenary group in the mercenary association and report on the matter of joining the starlight.

Frankly, when she finally signed her name, Shana was still reluctant. After all, she has been setting up the "Red Eagle" for several years. At first, she worked hard to set up a mercenary in order not to be masculine. Mission, to prove to men that women are no worse than them. But now it seems that reality is still cruel. She did not achieve her dream. In the end, she chose the same path as others.

Shana stopped the pen in her hand, and she looked up to look at Rhode, who was standing beside her.

Is this man different from other men? Li Jie likes him so much, then he must have something remarkable, but ... would that be what I want to see?

Now thinking of these is meaningless.

Thinking of this, Shana gritted her teeth and then signed her name on the paper.

From this moment, the Red Eagle was completely disbanded.

Until she walked out of the mercenary association's door, Shana's mood was still a little complicated, but she was very calm on her face.

"From today, you are my leader, Mr. Rhodes."

Speaking of this, Shana smiled and patted Rod on the shoulder.

"You can take your people back to pack up and go directly to the base to report. I think you should know the location of the base."

"of course."

After answering Rod's remarks, Shana turned around and planned to leave with her companion, and at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind her.

"Isn't this the older sister's head? Why are you here?"

At the sound, Shana's face changed slightly, and Rhodes raised an eyebrow and turned to look.

I saw that on the other side of the street, a young man in brand new leather armor came up with high toes, his eyes widened, looking at the red-haired maid in front of him.

"Sister-in-law? What are you doing at the Mercenary Association? Did you come here to take the task?"

"It has nothing to do with you, Barney."

At this moment, Shana's face had completely lost her previous smile, and it was replaced by cold frost.

"I, I just asked."

Shana's answer caused Barney to slap his lips, and the previous momentum was dissipated. Then, he frowned, and glanced at Rhode as if looking at the plague god.

"And, sister, why are you with this guy?"

"It's none of your business, Barney."

Shana answered coldly.

"You have nothing to do with Red Eagle now, do you? And the Red Eagle has disbanded. I am now a member of the Starlight Mercenary Regiment, and I hope you can remember this."

"what!?"

After hearing Shana's answer, Barney jumped up like a cat with a tail on his tail.

"Sister head, you said that the Red Eagle was dissolved, and you joined this **** mercenary regiment? How can you do this! How can you give up the Red Eagle, I ..."

"Shut up, Barney! You are no longer a Red Eagle, you are not qualified to tell me what to do!"

"not qualified?"

Hearing this sentence, Barney had some high-spirited faces, but at this moment it was immediately darkened.

"You always say that ... eldest sister, I am not qualified to say this, I am not qualified to say that, why? I ’m telling the truth, right? But you do n’t listen every time! When I am in the group, you Just say I'm not qualified, then I'm not in Red Eagle now! You still say I'm not qualified! But you are no longer qualified to say me! "

Then Barney raised his hand sharply and pointed at Rhodes.

"I still have to say today that the **** mercenary regiment of this **** is nothing. He is a pile of **** in front of our emerald tears. Everyone says it is not!"

"Yeah yeah."

"That's right, is such a weak mercenary regiment just **** at all, why would anyone get nervous and want to join?"

"Hey, maybe that guy used beauty, look, doesn't he look like a girl?"

"Hahaha, it's really like it! Don't say, he's just a man dressed as a man, a poor worm who doesn't have a chest and therefore looks like a man, hahaha, anyway, I look on the bed, like this ..."

The poor worm's words did not finish, because at this moment, a bright red light flashed through the air, and at the next moment, half of his brain flew into the sky with some of the half-yellow and white things. However, his own body still maintained that inferior movement, and after shaking for a few seconds, it fell to the ground.

There was silence all around.

Everyone was stunned and staring at the corpse that had fallen to the ground.

"The combat effectiveness is only five, and the experience value is only five. Slag is really slag."

Rhodes threw off the blood stains on his sword, and his mouth slightly raised. At this moment, a charming smile appeared on his original cold face.

"You, you, what do you want to do!"

Barney reacted, and withdrew his gaze from the corpse, looking at Rhode in anger. But his body stepped back involuntarily, until he stood with other people, which made him feel relieved.

"You dare to kill on the street! You know, we are the Jade Tears Mercenary Corps! By doing this, you are declaring war against our entire regiment!"

"kill?"

Rhode glanced at the body and smiled slightly.

"What a joke, I only saw a dead dog, I didn't see anyone, just like you ..."

Then, he looked up. Although Rhodes was still smiling at this time, no half of them saw the slightest smile in his eyes.

"I only saw a group of wild dogs who only shouted. For the sake of world peace, social stability and harmony, in order to prevent these wild dogs from biting people by rabies, so I intend to destroy them on behalf of the moon. As for you ... "

Then, Rhode walked slowly towards Barney.

"It seems that the scar has forgotten the pain, Mr. Barney, then this time, I will leave you a scar that you will never forget ... What do you think of this?"

"Ah ... ah ..."

Facing Rhode, who was walking towards himself, Barney could not move. Although he is in the crowd, he has no sense of security at all. In his eyes, the man's body seems to be emitting a cold chill, like a monster of life that binds him to death. Get up and book in place.

"Move, move, move ..."

His teeth were shaking, as if something was stuck in his throat. It was obviously just two simple words, but he couldn't tell why.

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! !!

Looking at Rhode's approaching step by step, Barney felt that the wound he had already healed in his palm began to faint again. Sweat beads floated on his forehead, slowly flowing down. But the teenager did not respond at all.

Is it like that?

Rhode had already reached Barney, and he saw the expressions on the mercenaries' faces, but he didn't care.

"call!"

At this moment, a dark figure suddenly appeared as if it was behind Rhodes, then she jumped up suddenly, and the sharp dagger in her hand stabbed into Rhodes's head quickly.

But she failed.

The moment the girl's dagger was about to pierce Rhodes' head, his figure suddenly disappeared, and then the girl felt only a numbness in his hands, and the two daggers in her hand immediately came out and fell to the ground.

bad!

Seeing a blow, the girl hurriedly tried to back away, but before she landed on the ground again, a big hand suddenly protruded from the side, grabbed the girl's slender neck, and pressed her to the wall. .

"This is the second time, and it seems that you will not learn any lessons."

Looking at the half-elf girl who was struggling against the wall and struggling, Rhodes had no mercy in his eyes.

"I didn't expect you to join the emerald tears. It seems that the mercenary group is really a garbage base, and everything is collected."

"Woo ... uh ..."

The girl's slender legs kicked desperately on the wall, and she reached out to press **** Rod's wrist, trying to leave. But Rhode had no intention of letting go. He just admired the struggle of the half-elf girl, and then turned his head and looked at Barney.

"Is she your companion? Well, in your face, I will leave her a dead body."

"You ... stop! Let go of her!"

As if reminded by Rhode's words, Barney was suddenly agitated at this moment, and then he immediately pulled out his sword and yelled at Rhode.

"Hurry up and let go of her! Otherwise I will be polite!"

"Men learn to talk less and do more."

In the face of Barney's sword, Rhodes did not let go, and with the gradual contraction of his palms, the struggle of the half-elf girl began to become weak, and the legs that had been kicked against the wall with force were already soft. She dropped, and the girl's hands also began to struggle and waved. Her eyes were open, her mouth was closed, her tongue stuck out, and she greedily tried to **** a swath of air, but it was obvious that Rhode did not intend to give her this opportunity.

"Brothers! Come on!"

Seeing nothing good, Barney didn't hesitate anymore. He waved his sword and gave orders daringly. When he heard his order, the other mercenaries also shed their swords and rushed towards Rhodes.

Just then, a deep voice suddenly appeared.

"Stop it all
