Summoning the Holy Sword
Chapter 562: Frozen Lake (I)
Although I knew that I would go to the Dragon Sacred Canon, Rhodes was not excited. In any case, it was not in a hurry. For Rhodes, the most important thing at the moment was not the invitation of the Dragon of Light. It's not the Pafield front, but the second five-star mission in Cramer, Frozen Lake. As long as this task can be completed, then it can be said that Rhodes's guild will be safe in the next year. Not only that, Rhodes thought of another person ......... I do n’t know if Bartel remembers him once. Make an appointment with yourself at the Midsummer Festival-well, I hope he can keep his promise.
The Kramer area is located in the bitter cold northwest. Although it is not poor mountains and poor water, it is definitely not fertile. People here mostly plant some cold-resistant crops, not only because of the geographical environment of Kramer, but also because A frozen lake in this area. It is rumored that this frozen lake has been covered by thick ice for hundreds of years and has never melted. Not only this lake, but the entire Kramer area, has a similar phenomenon. It ’s okay in the hot summer season. Once the cold winter is reached, both the river and the well in Kramer area will be completely covered by ice. At that time, people will only be able to crush the ice and take it home to melt it.
This weird and abnormal situation naturally attracted many people to investigate, but most of them did not find out the reason. It was not until later that a mage accidentally discovered that a huge elemental creature was hidden under Cramer Lake. That was the answer to the mystery of the Kramer area. But people have never found a way to deal with this monster. The only thing I know is that the monster lives in the entire Kraemer area, so its power doubles every winter. It will increase to the minimum in the summer. This is why Rhodes chose to do it at this time. After all, it is still early autumn. After a period of time, the power of the ice demon surges, but it is a trouble.
But the weirdness of the Kramer area is not just a frozen lake.
When he got out of the carriage, a biting cold wind blew on his face, which made Rhodes frown. It was clear that it was noon, the hottest day of the day, and it was extremely hot at this time in other places. People would rather rest in the shade than go out, but the Kramer area is bitterly cold, as if it has entered the early winter. But it wasn't the weird weather that made Rhodes frown, but the scene he saw after he got out of the carriage.
Throughout the Kramer area, the closest town to the Frozen Lake is the town of Green Trees right now, and that ’s why Rhodes asked Li Jie to bring mercenaries here to prepare, but in the carriage came to the Green Trees. While at the edge of the town, Rhodes found that his mercenaries were actually camping in the open space outside the town. At the moment they were forming a circle there and didn't know what to say. This made Rhodes a little surprised. There was no tavern hotel in the town. How boring is it for his subordinates to choose wind meals?
However, when Rhode approached, it seemed that something was not right. I saw in the crowd that there was a faint voice of quarrel, and she could even see Annie waving the golden shield in her hands. There shouted something.
"... I'm so mad at me, these people just don't make sense! No matter what they are, we will go directly when the head arrives, and I'm not afraid they won't ..." When speaking of this, Annie turned her head. Seeing Rhodes, a little joy appeared on her face, then she raised her right hand and waved strongly at Rhodes.
"Ah, leader, you are finally here! Tell Li Jie, those people are so annoying!"
Hearing Anne's words, Rhodes raised his eyebrows, only to find that there were several strangers in the crowd besides his own mercenaries. It seemed that they were arguing with them. These people are not mercenaries, and it seems that they are dressed as residents of the town, which makes Rhodes feel a little unhappy. Although Rhodes has not set any strict rules for his team, he is unwilling to see any conflict between his men and these ordinary civilians. Apart from the boring generations, no one likes to compete with npc. And the reason why Rhodes can make Starlight the largest guild in the game, naturally, it is not just that he and his subordinates are decisive and decisive. Although fighting endlessly with other guilds, for those ordinary players, Starlight generally provides convenience, and leveling has never been cleared or rushed. This is also why starlight can always exist in the game. After all, the basis of the game is still the majority of ordinary players. Not everyone will be branded by the guild immediately after entering the game. If Rhodes is overbearing and oppressive, even if he drives the entire server plug-in, I'm afraid he can only get out of his way.
But what surprised him was that maybe some of his mercenaries were acting badly, but Annie and Li Jie are very good people. Although Anne's surname is a bit hot, she rarely provokes wrong with these ordinary people. And Li Jie need not say more. If this is the trick of Qilian's cunning fox, Rhodes still has some ideas, but now Qiqi is not here?
Despite his doubts, Rhode glanced at the people next to him, then looked at Li Jie and asked.
"what happened?"
Seeing Rhode's arrival, Li Jie's face also showed a relieved expression, and then she quickly explained to Rhode what happened.
It turned out that after bringing the mercenaries to Greentree Town, Li Jie originally planned to take a break here as Rhodes ordered, and then waited for Rhodes to start and prepare to start the mission. However, these mercenaries were boring after all, so the residents of the town also knew their intentions. Of course, this was not a big deal in Li Jie's opinion. The task of Frozen Lake is named in the mercenary association. They are here to help the people here. They are not sneaking chickens and dogs, so they are not attentive.
But the next thing was beyond Li Jie's expectations. After learning about the mercenaries' arrival, these townspeople not only did not welcome them, but asked them to leave, although Li Jie had explained several times that they had come. This is to complete the task of the mercenary association, and this task was originally proposed by the residents of the Kramer area, but now they took the task to come here, but did not expect that the publisher of the task would not welcome them. It really caught Li Jie off guard.
However, these townspeople did not seem to listen to Li Jie's explanation. The two parties even had a near conflict. In the end, Li Jie took the initiative to leave the town in order to avoid trouble, but they did not leave, but settled in the neighborhood. Come down and wait for Rhodes to come before proceeding.
However, I did not expect these townspeople to be relentless. It was only two days later that people came to force them to leave again, and claimed that the Kramer area did not welcome them as mercenaries. Everyone was annoyed at the hearing. You have to say that you do n’t welcome us in your town. It makes sense. Now that everyone has left the town, you still want to drive us away? The mercenaries were originally surviving surnames, but Li Jie reluctantly reassured them, not to mention they had worked so hard to get here after wading through mountains and rivers. As a result, the **** was driven away by the other party before they became hot. I was so angry. Looking at these residents now, they still have to make inroads, of course, they can't help but hit them. At this time, these residents were also talking bad words, and Anne was not happy about this. She was not old, and her surname went straight. It was naturally very angry to hear that these people were still talking about Li Jie. Fortunately, Annie knew that these people couldn't be scared, otherwise I'm afraid she would have thrown the heavy Adamantite shield in front of the other person.
Is there such a thing?
After hearing Li Jie's helpless description, Rhodes also frowned. When he gave the order, he didn't know that there was such a troublesome thing in Green Tree Town. It is no wonder that the players are not aboriginal people. They do not need to look for anything here Most of the shelters that shelter from the wind and rain are generally under the guild's mission, then the head of the group takes a group of people to rectify, and then directly enters the mission copy to stimulate the boss to do it. After all, staying in the game requires money. Although Dragon Soul Mainland is a rare virtual reality game, it does not mean that it is exactly the same as reality. Ordinary players who spend money to stay or whatever will not do it.
After listening to Li Jie's narrative, Rhode turned his head and looked at the people on the other side. Judging from their clothing, these people should be the mayor and law enforcement officer here. Of course, Compared with the group of mercenaries who are almost advancing under Rhodes, these few people have no resistance at all. It can also be seen from their pale complexion that these people can't stop waving the heavy gold shield of Annie It's a lot of pressure, but even so, these people are still here stiffening their necks and are unwilling to flinch, which is strange.
Thinking of this, Rhode waved her hand to Anne, and then he walked in front of the townspeople, looked up at them, and asked.
"I want to hear your reasons. Everyone, our Starlight Guild has come here to take on the tasks issued by the Mercenary Association. There is nothing wrong with what we do. If you want to drive us away, I hope We can get a satisfactory answer. Otherwise, even if we finally leave, we will report the matter to the association. At that time, I think you must explain to the lord of the Kramer area with the association. "
Hearing Rhode's words, these townspeople couldn't help but change their faces. After all, they were all honest residents in the town. After seeing a city owner in Pingyue, they were scared to walk, and now Rhode told them. If they hinder themselves from completing the task, then they must explain the matter to the lord, and prevent the mercenaries from completing the task, or even trouble the people of Cramer for many years, which is untenable no matter where it is of.
Thinking of this, several older townspeople had begun to hesitate at this time, and one of the younger and younger was young and prosperous, stood up angrily, staring at Rhodes in a huff, Shouted while waving his fist.
"The mayor, the law enforcement officer, and these mercenaries, Luo Ye, for so many years, so many mercenaries have come here, and what has succeeded? Not all of them have turned around and fled away, but in the end they have suffered and suffered. Are n’t we all? This time, no matter what, we definitely can't let them continue like this anyway! Anyway, these people will not lose at the end? By that time, it ’s us who are unlucky and let them go if they want to sue! We are not afraid before the Lord! "
"You bastard, you are shit, how can we lose !!"
"That is, you don't know our strengths at all, just talking nonsense here, did you intentionally curse us?"
Hearing the young man's words, the mercenaries around were unhappy. Most of the mercenaries were originally not very literate and very superstitious. Listening to this young man so sure that they will lose in front of them, these people suddenly get annoyed-is this cursing them in person? !!
Not to mention that these mercenaries have been following Rhodes for a long time. Under Rhodes' leadership, they have never failed. Because of this, they are full of confidence in Rhodes. But now, this little fart child with no hair grows dare to question their president, which is a dead end!
In the face of his passionate subordinates, Rhodes didn't speak. He just waved his hands and saw Rhodes' movement. Just now he pointed at the mercenaries who were scolded by the townspeople and closed their mouths. Those older people were very surprised. When they first saw Rhodes, they didn't take this young man to heart. Looking at Rhodes 'action now, he can actually shut up so many mercenaries around him. They first realized that Rhodes' position in this mercenary guild is extraordinary.
And until this time, the old man among these townspeople sighed a long time, then stood up and looked at Rhode helplessly.
"I'm sorry, sir, we really don't want to do this, but we can't stand it anymore for so many years."
Then he said with a gloomy expression.
