The Last King of Darkness

"cough."

Rhode coughed. Although it was a very happy thing for a girl to take the initiative to invite her, he finally came out for three days, not to pick up the girl.

Although she claims to have a lot of water, it is easy to soak.

"Aduo, I'm actually very short of money..."

A Duo blinked her big eyes and asked softly, "Brother Sauron, how could you be short of money for such a powerful hunter?"

Rhode's thoughts flashed, and he immediately thought of an answer: "Actually, I bought a house in the upper city, and I owe a lot..."

"Wow!"

Ado exclaimed.

"House in Shangcheng District! Brother Sauron, you actually bought a house in Shangcheng District!"

She covered her mouth and looked around carefully, as if she was afraid that the news would be leaked.

But the Hunter's Tavern was empty and empty.

She approached Rhodes, her big eyes filled with strange brilliance, and she lowered her voice and asked, "Brother Sauron, where is your house?"

"Um... on Queen Street..."

A Duo's entire face quickly turned red. She twisted her little hands unconsciously, and every breath she exhaled was scorching hot, causing Rhode's cheek to burn.

"Brother Sauron, the house must be expensive, right?"

"Yup."

"Brother must owe a lot of money to the giant merchant Maihara, right?"

"Uh... yes, I owe a lot, and the monthly repayment pressure is very high."

A Duo's expression suddenly became serious, she straightened up, and quickly took out the thick mission briefing from under the counter.

"Brother Sauron is right, making money is what matters. Brother does the task first. You can look at the water-spraying lilies at any time. There will be time in the future. If your brother wants to, I can also bring the flowers to my brother's house. ."

She rummaged through the mission briefing with her head down, but the red tips of her ears betrayed her thoughts.

It turns out that there is also huge housing pressure in the royal city?

Rhode touched his nose, feeling a little complicated.

Is that Maihara giant a real estate developer in Wangcheng?

No, it seems a little different, and I can't use my experience to force it.

However, this is a good excuse. The higher the salary, the greater the danger and the higher the chance of encountering powerful monsters.

Rhodes smiled.

Then I'll trouble you, little sister Ado.

Take time to appreciate your flowers.

I have to say that with a good friend of the head of the hunter branch, many things have become easier.

The Hunter Headquarters will send many tasks every day, some from various defense areas, some from major legions, some from the General Army War Headquarters, and some commissioned tasks from private individuals.

If you are not familiar with people, it is impossible to find the right one from so many tasks.

The hunter group itself also has many rules to restrict the behavior of hunters.

Therefore, if Rhodes wants to hunt stronger monsters more efficiently, Ado is a very important assistant.

It's okay to sacrifice some hue if necessary.

"Ah, that's right."

Ado said suddenly.

"Brother Sauron, your hunter star has reached the third level, you can choose a new title."

Rhodes was surprised: "Is there such a thing?"

While looking for tasks, A Duo lowered his voice and said, "This means to change your hunter license to a regular one. We have a record of the license you bought."

She put a thick book in front of Rhodes.

"Find a suitable one on it."

Rhode opened the book, and it was full of various hunter titles, but most of them were marked in red.

The rest of the names are very strange, all weird names like "Deadwood", "Women's Clothing", "Pants" and "Steel Plate".

After searching for a long time, only one barely caught my eye.

"That's it."

"Big Wither? This name is so strange, no one has ever chosen it."

A Duo's fingers quickly swiped on the crystal panel embedded in the counter. After a while, Rhode suddenly felt a heat in his waist and took out to take a look.

On his silver hunter license, the words "Blade of Dawn" gradually melted and became "Big Wither".

It's a bit powerful, this hunter license is really unusual.

After another quarter of an hour, A Duo suddenly said with joy: "I found it, this commission should be OK."

She handed over a mission briefing with a red header.

"This is a commission from the stone workshop. They have been attacked by unknown evil spirits. They need experienced hunters with strong tracking and search capabilities. The task salary is 10,000 silver cords. Brother Sauron has high vision and observation skills. Keen, with great thrust and logic, an excellent scout and tracker, just right for the mission."

Rhodes quickly read the mission briefing.

This stone workshop is located at the foot of the eastern mountain range of Ashes, and its main task is to produce and process psionic-solidified stones for the construction of city defenses or solid fortifications.

This is a small human stronghold with less than ten thousand people. It is located in the innermost part of the red earth plain. It is generally relatively safe, but three days ago, a strange evil spirit appeared out of nowhere. Twelve masons have been killed in a row.

The guards of the stone workshop were helpless, and the sixth defense area they belonged to sent two hunting teams to return without success.

Under the advice of the War Department, they could only make a request to the Hunter Regiment.

This task is indeed possible.

The most important thing is that the threat level of the task will be represented by the color of the header. The darker the color, the greater the threat.

The threat represented by the red header has reached the "severe" level.

In the context of Wangcheng, this degree is not too small.

However, this also created a problem, Rhodes' star rating is not enough.

A Duo said softly: "Iron Wolf and the others have not recovered yet. They must find new teammates. Any dark task must be completed by a hunter team of two or more."

"I see, can you help me find teammates? A Duo."

Rhodes doesn't know anyone here, so he can only ask Ado.

A Duo said apologetically: "Brother Sauron, during the Kuroshio period, many hunters were forcibly recruited, so there was always no one in the tavern, and there was only one hunter suitable for this task."

Rhode said casually: "It doesn't matter, just him."

Although the more teammates the more effort is saved, it will also lead to a significant increase in the difficulty of killing, rather than the monsters he killed with his own hands, the chance of obtaining a complete soul is very small.

Two or three people perform the task, which is the best choice.

A Duo said softly: "Her name is Mephis, a seven-star hunter, and the title is Death Knell."

It's a pity Rhodes, why don't I have such a handsome title?

But A Duo didn't seem to think the title was cool, and her voice became low and melancholy.

"Brother Sauron, the hunters who have traveled with her in the past, have a high probability of casualties. Many hunters regard her as a disaster star and bad luck, and some people even slander her as a doomsday believer, thinking that she is killing her compatriots, but Sister Mephis The person is actually very good, she just often performs very dangerous missions, and of course the casualty rate will be high."

A Duo looked at Rhodes with a serious look.

"If my brother is very concerned, I will find a way to find someone in another branch, which may take a long time."

Rhode said with a smile: "Don't bother, just her, I'm firm... uh, fire-wielder warriors, never believe in these things, we who are protected by fire are never afraid of bad luck. Besides, A Duo's good Friend, how can you be a doomsday believer?"

"Brother Sauron is indeed a good person."

A Duo smiled like a flower, propped up the counter with her little hands, leaned over, and kissed Rhodes on the cheek.

After releasing the Spirit Raven messenger, he personally prepared a cup of "Blue Nebula" for him.

This cloud-like blue fruit wine represents freedom, hope, reason and healing, and is A Duo's blessing to the hunters who are about to travel.

The concentration of fruit wine is not high, the entrance is dense, sweet and sour, and the aftertaste is endless.

After a drink, people arrived.

"Sister Mephis!"

A Duo waved his hand behind him forcefully, and couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

Rhodes turned to look, and saw a tall hunter walking towards them.

She was wearing a standard hunter's trench coat, standard hunter boots, a wide-brimmed felt hat, and a thick scarf, hiding her face in the shadows, but her pale silver eyes were more conspicuous. It is cold, like frost and snow.

She wears a long sword on one side of her waist and a short spear on the other.

Rhodes frowned slightly, and he didn't seem to be very strong.

Forget it, anyway, it's just a matter of [Psionic Quintet]. Evil spirits are generally not strong, just help me contain them.

"This is the brother Sauron I'm talking about." A Duo introduced enthusiastically: "Although his star rating is not high, he is very powerful, and his spiritual vision is very high. He is good at observation, tracking and reasoning. He is definitely a good partner. , will definitely help you accomplish this task.”

The cold-looking huntress said softly, "Thank you, Ado."

The voice was cold, and there was also a chill that rejected people thousands of miles away.

She turned around and said to Rhodes: "Hello, I'm Death Knell Mephis, the first time I met, I hope you can know that many hunters I cooperated with have died, or suffered irreparable disabilities, or irreparably infected."

Rhode said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm tough, you won't die."

Mephis glanced at him, and the light silver eyes had a feeling of piercing the soul.

"Hopefully, if you're ready, let's go."

Rhode nodded ~www.readwn.com~ Time waits for no one, let's go. "

"Ado, see you later."

He walked out of the Hunter's Tavern side by side with the tall Mephis.

A Duo shouted from behind: "Brother Sauron, sister Mephis, may the fire walk with you all the way and shine on you forever!"

This time they didn't use a rickshaw, and the two walked straight out of the city.

Rhodes is now rushing far faster than he used to. With a touch of his toes, he jumps out a distance of dozens of steps, and between the ups and downs of psychic energy, it is as smooth as breathing.

Mephis was about the same speed as him, but always half a step behind him.

"Haha, I really got stronger."

Rhodes was a little happy, and a little anxious.

"I have to quickly fill up the [Justice Execution], and then deal with the [Spiritual Boat]. After that, I will find a way to ignite new stars."

"Well... I have to find a way to accumulate more trump cards, so that the invaders know what it means to have a lot of people. It's the last word. [Wooden Puppet] and [Soul Ashes] are really easy to use."

"The puppet tree can be made by a medicine woman, but there is not much spirituality to live. I have to find a way to kill a wave of doomsday believers, but they are all hidden deep, and it is difficult to find."

"The sun stone is the most troublesome, how can I get some more?"

Along the way, Rhodes silently thought about his future and considered various ways to deal with the invasion.

In the darkness, the two of them were silent and didn't speak much.

Two shimmering lights illuminate each other, neither near nor far, like two parallel lines that never meet.

After a few hours, the two came to the bottom of the eastern death mountain range, in front of the gate of the Lusk Stone Workshop.
