Rhodes took the vampire and boarded the carriage approved by the Silver Seal Merchant Order.

There were two rows of seats on the left and right sides of the carriage, but they were not very spacious, apparently only for a small number of people.

After entering the carriage from the side, Rhodes sat down in the seat in the carriage.

Looking at some of the decorations on the interior of the carriage and the windows that could be opened on both sides, Rhodes realized that this carriage was originally intended for transporting passengers.

Rod speculated that due to the good remuneration for transporting passengers, the Silver Seal merchant group itself would choose to bring some passengers, but not too many. If the number of travelers is too large, something will happen that is beyond the control of the Silver Seal Merchant Group.

For carrying passengers, a large group of merchants is definitely cheaper. Travelers who wanted to go to the City of Sorrow had already left with the previous big merchant group. As a result, until two days before departure, the Silver Seal merchant group did not find any travelers.

This is also why, at the beginning, Yuser did not directly refuse Rod to become a traveler because of Rhodes' status as a necromancer, but negotiated with Rhodes for travel expenses.

At first, Uther thought was to use verbal repression to get Rhodes to pay for the high cost of the trip. However, through his own observations, Rhodes was aware of the real goods he was carrying, so that Uther had to exempt Rhodes from his travel expenses as his hush money.

After judging that the Silver Seal Merchant Group was really transporting the Revenant Crystal, Rhodes only proposed to become a traveler, and did not take this opportunity to extort a sum of money from the merchant group, which also had his own considerations.

As Rhodes said, he is a traveler who follows the merchant group, and along the way, he must be taken care of by the merchant group.

The Silver Seal Merchant Group was already willing to let Rhodes conceal this information and not charge any travel expenses from Rhodes and his party, which in itself was a sign of weakness. If Rhodes really wants to gain an inch, the business group is not vegetarian.

Along the way, Rhodes was unable to guard against retaliation from the merchants. A few senior professionals, plus a spellcaster, with a reasonable arrangement, may not be impossible to kill Rhodes and vampires.

Just like the current situation, although the merchant group cannot get travel money from Rhodes, they will not forcibly besiege Rhodes whose strength is unknown, increasing their losses. Rhodes can also follow the merchant group and go to Diya, which is considered to take what he needs.

"Revenant Crystal ......"

Sitting in the carriage, Rhodes thought back to the previous situation, took out the Revenant Crystal from the spatial ring, checked it, and handed it to the vampire next to him.

The vampire was instantly like a treasure, and after taking it, he held the Revenant Crystal in his hand while keeping it close to his body.

Revenant crystals are releasing death energy all the time, which can help necromancers transform undead creatures, and can also help undead creatures advance.

Therefore, in Diya, the Revenant Crystal is very popular with necromancers, but in other places it can only be used as a jewelry decoration, and the price is far less than Diya.

According to Rod's feelings, the advancement of vampires in the previous tomb was likely triggered by this revenant crystal.

At this time, since he had already planned to follow the merchant group to the City of Sorrow, how long it would take along the way, Rod did not know. Giving the Revenant Crystal to the vampire is also hoping that he can improve his strength a little by absorbing death energy.

After the advancement is interrupted, the vampire cannot advance again for a short time, but he can rely on the death energy released by the Revenant Crystal to maintain his strength at the peak of the third order, waiting for the next opportunity to advance.

By this time, it was completely dark outside the carriage.

Watching the vampire absorb the energy emitted by the Revenant Crystal at ease, Rhodes himself had a plan.

Rhodes did not choose to meditate. Rod's mana has reached the upper limit of the corresponding knowledge attributes, and ordinary meditation cannot have any effect except to accelerate the recovery of mana.

At this time, the only thing that can improve Rhodes' strength is deep meditation.

However, the conditions required to enter deep meditation are harsh, and besides, Rhodes himself has some ideas.

Since coming to this world, the successive battles have left Rod without any time to rest. Even if you have a little time to spare, you are preparing for the next battle, and the only way to rest is to meditate.

Until now, Rhodes had not slept once, and through meditation, even if the physical fatigue could be recovered, the mental sleepiness caused by the battle could not be eliminated.

In this state, Rhodes did not think that he could smoothly enter a state of deep meditation. The experience of his past life taught Rhodes that instead of engaging in useless meditation, it is better to take the time to adjust his state to the best and try deep meditation again.

Therefore, Rhodes chose to adjust his mental state through sleep.

Due to the lack of space in the carriage, Rhodes could not lie down on his whole body, so he could only sit in the seat, crossed his hands, leaned his back against the plank behind the carriage, closed his eyes, and began to try to sleep.

As for whether the Silver Seal Merchant Group would take this opportunity to besiege him, Rhodes was not worried.

The merchant group with a large number of Revenant Crystals would be more cautious than Rhodes thought, for fear that an unusual move would make other forces notice them. Is there anything more out of the ordinary than besieging and killing passengers in the station?

…………

Long.

Perhaps there is a subconscious vigilance, even when he falls asleep, Rhodes cannot completely fall into a deep sleep, but still remains semi-awake.

The noise around him, coupled with the vibration under his feet, made Rod wake up from his sleep in time. The vampire felt as if he didn't feel anything, still absorbing the energy emitted by the Revenant Crystal.

In an instant, Rhodes pushed a gap in the side window and looked out.

The sky was still dark, showing a dark blue light, and the entire merchant group was ready, and a large number of carriages had gathered around them, preparing to move in one direction.

"Are you awake?"

As if sensing movement in the carriage, a hoarse voice came from the front of the carriage.

Rod pushed the window open, and the probe looked ahead. It was the thief I saw yesterday who was sitting in front of the carriage in which he was sitting, whipping the horses in front of him.

"You should feel honored. The merchant group has changed the departure time for you. ”

He deliberately explained the matter to Rod, and after saying this, the thief did not say a word, but drove the carriage in front.

Without saying anything more, Rhodes closed the window again and sat back in the carriage.

Rhodes understood what the thieves meant, and because he was not sure whether the information would be leaked, after a night of preparation, the merchant group chose to set off a day earlier and early this morning.

As soon as it was dawn, the ranks of the trade unions formed a long line, leaving the headquarters of the freelance chamber of commerce and heading towards the gate of the town.

At this time, under the dark blue sky, several people dressed in black robes were staring at the caravan in the distance, indicating that the road did not seem to be peaceful.
