Summoning the Holy Sword
Chapter 87: Dongchu break
With the arrival of Rhodes and Serek, the hearts of everyone in the "Victory of Wine" mercenary group finally returned to their original positions. In fact, after sending people to ask for help, they can only wait silently, but after all, there is no satellite phone in this world. Although there are some long-distance communication methods between masters, it is certainly not a small helper. The corps consumed it, and they did not even know if the people they sent out could leave the silent highlands alive. Sometimes looking at the deep darkness in front of them, they even had despair. Maybe the people they sent out were not able to leave at all, but fell into a dark corner of this highland. In this way, they were still alive. What's the point? It just adds to the pain.
But when they raised their swords and tried to destroy themselves, the instinctual desire for survival sprouted in their hearts, maybe that person had successfully escaped, and now they are taking the mercenary association's people to Hurry here, if this is the case, then as long as you persist, there will be hope!
For them in danger, these days are almost unimaginable torment, survival and death, hope and despair, every time they open their eyes, they can't wait to come to them and show themselves. The presence. As the day passed, the mercenary group's food became less and less, and these people became more difficult. There are quiet highlands of undead everywhere, and you can't find anything to eat except the corpses. However, even if they went to eat carcasses madly, those pieces of meat that had already decayed, spoiled and smelled badly would only push them to death rather than extend their lives.
They have reached their limit, and if Rhodes doesn't show up again, maybe they will lose their minds because of despair, they will go crazy or maybe.
Fortunately, this possible surname has now been eliminated.
Under the healing of the spiritualists, the injuries of the mercenaries were quickly cured. After gorging on the food they brought, the mercenaries finally fell to the ground easily and had a peaceful dream. Instead of sinking into the darkness with pain as before, I don't even know if I have a chance to wake up.
At the moment, the exhausted spiritual masters finally have a chance to rest peacefully. After all, no one of them except Li Jie has experience in field battles, although they have rested there several times before. But the spirits of these spiritual masters are not stable. They always worry about where those terrible undead creatures will come from. In addition, Rhodes always asks for time, so they do n’t have much time to adjust. Your own mood. Until now, after treating the wounded, the spiritualists sitting in the cave felt a fatigue and relaxation after a high degree of tension.
Marin's performance is slightly better than these spiritual masters. Although she has contributed a lot since entering the silent highlands, but it is much easier than those spiritual masters. In addition, Rod mostly orders her to use it. It's all low-level spells, so the cost is not large. Compared to those "spiritual and mentally weak" spiritual masters, she is just a bit tired due to strenuous exercise. At this moment she was sitting by the fire while eating dry food in her hand and talking to Li Jie in a low voice. Annie, who had been running around before, was lying next to the two at this time, waking up to sleep, and looking at her happy sleeping face, it really made people wonder how the young lady ’s nerves grew. .
Old Walker didn't mingle with the girls. He sat in the corner next to him, drinking wine and looking at the fire in front of him, he didn't know what he was remembering.
What a strange group of people.
Looking at the people in front of him, Kudla couldn't help but wonder, and frankly, he had never seen such a weird mercenary group. According to the ordinary model, in the general mercenary regiment, the hand-to-hand occupation is always the most. Occupations such as swordsman, thief, ranger and warrior are almost the most important roles. In contrast, mages and spiritual masters are overwhelmingly few surnames. On the one hand, these occupations are very rare and difficult to find. On the other hand, regardless of whether it is a mage or a spiritual master, generally do not like to mingle with the mercenary group. The former is noble, and doesn't want to spend money with these vulgar guys. Moreover, the mage is quite confident in his own wisdom. Even if they reluctantly act with the mercenary regiment, they will want to gain the command of the mercenary regiment, instead of obeying the mercenary's order in turn. The latter is difficult to act with the mercenary group because of his own identity restrictions. After all, low-level spiritual masters do not have too many skills to protect themselves. In case the entire team is in crisis, this link must be the first Crashed.
This is why the danger levels of many mercenary associations and undead creatures are surprisingly high. Undead are not afraid of death and injury. They are natural killers for the melee profession. Police use guns during the biochemical crisis. I can't stop myself from becoming a ghost in the mouth of the zombies. It is conceivable how this group of mercenaries still using cold weapons will behave when facing undead like a mountain.
Although Ranger can sneak attack on undead creatures in the distance, will a dead creature care if one or two arrows pass through its head?
But looking at Rhodes' mercenary regiment, the personnel mix can be said to be diverse, mage, spiritualist, swordsman, ranger, and shield warrior. It looks more like an encyclopedia of professional encyclopedias than a mercenary regiment. not to mention…………
Kudla set her eyes on the young girl sitting quietly beside Rhodes, closing her eyes and restless eyes, her white wings hanging behind her, like a delicate and beautiful cloak.
An angel.
Kudla can swear by his own soul. He has never seen an mercenary group joined by an angel. At the beginning, he thought that the angel girl was a person known by Lord Serek, after all, his identity Noble, is the high-ranking big man of the Shenshicheng Mercenary Association. For his small mercenary, it is not surprising that the big man will know some inscrutable figures. But when he saw Celia respectfully call Rhodes the "master", this man of barbaric descent, who even dared to face those terrible undead, almost sat down on the ground.
What is the origin of this young man?
Kudla didn't know. He asked Serek for a surname, but the sword master didn't give him an answer, which made Dekudra feel that Rhodes was unpredictable.
In any case, thank him always, and ...
With that in mind, Kudela stood up and walked to Rhode's side.
"Mr. Rhodes, I am very grateful for your willingness to participate in this rescue operation. I hereby pay my most sincere respect to you and your mercenary group."
Although it looks like five big and three rough, Dracula's words show that this barbarian also has a cautious side. And he kept in mind the warning that Serek had given himself before, that is, don't mention his face in front of Rhodes, otherwise ... it would be difficult to say what would happen.
It's not difficult for Kudela to understand Serek's meaning, even when he saw Rod at first glance, he was a bit shocked, but now ...
"We" Victory Wine "will not forget your and your mercenary regiment's helping hand at the moment of crisis. Please rest assured that after returning, we will definitely give you sufficient compensation ......... Those who sacrificed for us Brother, we won't let them die in vain! "
What is this guy talking about?
Rhode looked up, looked at the man in front of him in wonder and wonder, and didn't understand what he was saying, but at this moment, Serek took a smile on his side.
"It's not right for you to say that, Kudla, let me tell you the truth, we have been here from entering the quiet highlands, and no one has left behind halfway. Don't underestimate the young man's commanding skills, frankly, In my opinion, you are completely inferior to him. Therefore, don't hesitate to curb the mercenary group's downsizing, be careful that they will turn their faces with you? "
No downsizing? !!
When he heard this, Kudla was taken aback, this time he finally looked a little more awe in Rhode's eyes. It's no wonder that the mercenaries know where the quiet highlands are, let alone a small mercenary regiment. Even a heavily armed mercenary guild must make psychological preparations for attrition.
But now Serek told him that the mercenary regiment had zero casualties!
How exactly did this young man do it! ?
Kudra would not believe it if others said it, but Serek himself said it. As one of the most prestigious strongmen in the mercenary association, he naturally has a credibility guarantee. Thinking of this, Kudela immediately felt a little panicked. After all, he was also a mercenary commander, knowing what the mercenaries taboo, it was not a good thing to speak in front of others like this.
"Sorry, I………"
"Don't apologize to me, Mr. Kudela."
Rhode calmly interrupted Kudella's explanation. He really didn't care about such a trivial matter, not to mention that the other party just lost his heart and didn't need to take it to heart.
"But I have my own requirements."
"Mr. Rhode, please."
Hearing that Rhodes changed his tone, Kudla was also calm, and immediately showed a warm smile.
"As Mr. Serek said, I can indeed be sure to take everyone safely out of the silent highlands, but I have my requirements. I know you are also a mercenary commander, but frankly, I do n’t believe in your commanding ability. So my request is that before we set off, I require all of you, including you, to fully and unconditionally obey my orders. If you can agree to this, then I I can assure you that all of you can leave alive. But if you can't do it ... "
Speaking of which, Rhode paused, then looked at the gloomy Kurd, who had begun to look meaningfully.
"Then I have to make some sacrifices to keep us safe."
He believed what he meant, and Kudela would understand.
Sure enough, after hearing this sentence, Kudla's complexion changed a few times, at first a little iron blue, and later turned red. He clenched his fist, then released and clenched again. At this moment, the head of the barbarian no longer had the smile on his face. He just calmed his face and silently looked at the man who was nearly twenty years younger than himself. Young man.
In his heart, Kudla did not accept Rhode's words. He doesn't think there is any problem with his commanding ability, otherwise how could he lead someone to persevere in the silent highlands till now? But intellectually, he also admits that Rhode's words are not wrong. After all, the other party can arrive here with such a lineup with zero casualties, which itself shows the young man's commanding ability. Although Serek's strength as a sword master must be taken into account, as a qualified mercenary commander, Kudla knows that such help is limited after all. No matter how strong Serec is, he is also a man, and it is impossible to take care of all aspects of the mercenary regiment.
So what do you do?
"I see. I will tell my subordinates."
In the end, Kudla nodded bluntly, then turned away, leaving the politeness and respect at the beginning is gone.
"You shouldn't do this to him, Rhodes."
Looking at Kudela's figure, Serek shook his head with a grin.
"I'm just talking about the necessary things."
Rhode answered without answering his question. In fact, the reason why he was so polite was, as he said, such a matter was not discussed. On the other hand, Rhodes is indeed very dissatisfied with Kudela. If he had not brought his mercenary group to such a dangerous ghost place, they could have completed the task more easily and quickly. But now ...... thinking of this, Rhode could not help feeling angry, although strictly speaking it had nothing to do with Kudela, after all, he was the first time to come to the quiet highlands, and he did n’t know where it was dangerous and where it was not dangerous . But for Rhodes, ignorance has never been a good excuse, not to mention that he is angry without any psychological burden ......... In the game, Rhodes already has such experience, as long as the other party against Rhodes and His team creates danger, so whether they are willing or forced, intentional or unintentional, goodwill or malicious, regardless of motivation, the result will not change.
Since the results cannot be changed, your explanation is meaningless to me.
Knocking on the front teeth and swallowing it was never Rhode's style.
In response to Rod's answer, Serek didn't say much. He was a member of the mercenary association. He was not good at participating in the dispute between the two mercenary commanders, and he also saw that this young man had a kind of Proud of self-confidence, he doesn't even allow anyone to question it.
This made Serek feel familiar and unfamiliar. Familiar with it is that many powerful leaders he has seen have actually insisted on it. This is actually an inevitable cycle. Only when we firmly believe that our talents can go to the end without being affected by anyone, we can make decisions. Although sometimes these decisions may not be correct, it is a sign of authority.
The strange thing is that he has never seen such a performance in any young people. They are either arrogant, ignorant, or even do not understand what is fear. This makes them show a kind of blind self-confidence, this kind of self-confidence looks really confusing at first, but just like a paper tiger, when the actual appearance comes out the prototype.
But Rhodes is different. From his body, Serek felt a momentum that only leaders can have.
If he knew that Rhodes was once one of the world's most powerful game guild leaders, maybe he would understand where Rhodes' firm, tough, and confident source is.
After answering Serek's remarks, Rod didn't say much, because he had more important things to do at this moment.
Silent Highlands is a high-level replica. Although the equipment it produces is less satisfactory, the experience is still very rich. After leading the mercenary regiment through the battlefield of light and shadow, and resisting the impact of the wave of undead monsters, Rhode's experience finally allowed him to advance again, breaking through the fifteenth level.
This was great news for Rhodes, and at the same time, he got another system prompt.
After he reached the fifteenth level, the system finally reminded him that the second sealed swordsmanship finally reached the required conditions and the lock was released.
