Walking down the stairs, Rod soon saw Serek sitting in the hall, and when he saw Rod's figure, the swordsman showed a helpless smile, and then stood up.

"I didn't expect to be called out at this time."

"Sorry to disturb your rest, Mr. Serek."

Rod nodded slightly and apologized to Serek, which is no wonder, after all, Serek's complaint is not unreasonable, he also came here once with the elder during the day, but at that time, Rod did not mention what mercenary assessment he wanted to do, and it was already evening, but he suddenly sent someone to call him over, which was inevitably a little dissatisfied. But Rhodes can't help it, after all, Canary and Little Bubblegum have not registered with the Mercenary Association, and they must register if they want to become official members of their guild, otherwise it will be very troublesome if something goes wrong in the future. And Rhodes didn't want to make too much fanfare, so he sent Shanna to invite Serek over

And, in a way, it's good for Serek as well.

"No need to apologize to me, Mr. Rhodes."

In the face of Rod's apology, Serek smiled bitterly and shook his head, although he didn't go to watch this midsummer festival competition, but as a master of swordsmanship, Serek also has his own information channels in the Golden City, of course he knows very well what Rhodes got in the Golden City this time. It can even be said that after this midsummer festival, Rhodes in Parfield, whether in terms of strength or status, there are few people who can compare with him. Especially after Serek learned that he was able to defeat Battle one-on-one, he had a new understanding of this young man's strength - although he didn't believe that Rhodes had the strength of the legendary realm, even if Rod didn't step into the legendary realm, his swordsmanship alone was enough to become a strong side of Parfield.

Of course, it is not a comfortable thing to admit that a person who is more than a year younger than himself has more strength than himself, but Serek is not dissatisfied with this, on the contrary, he is still a little happy. As a Pafield-born swordsman, Serek was once the pride of this plain, but as he got older, his strength did not improve, which made Serek very helpless.

In the Dragon Soul Continent, a place where personal strength is super strong, if a region is sheltered by a powerful being, then their life will be much better. But if one region doesn't have any good players, they will be passive in competition with other regions. As if Parfield's almost deprived guild seat this time is the most obvious example, if they have a strong person like Lawson or Battle here, I'm afraid the Mercenary Guild will not even mention such an excessive request.

It's a pity that at that time, Parfield didn't have any characters who could take a shot, so he would be bullied.

Serek himself also understands that as a master of swordsmanship, he can still walk sideways in the three-acre land of Parfield, and he has no influence when he goes out of here. And this has also brought a vicious cycle, take Shearer's Burning Blade as an example, he has been promoted to the guild several times and then demoted, on the one hand, Shearer is really inexperienced, and on the other hand, his strength is really not good. Parfield has been in existence for so many years, but there has never been a strong man, which makes Serek very sad, and he is even a little worried about what will become of Parfield in the future.

And it was at this time that Rhodes appeared.

Although he was not born in Parfield, he is now a Pafield man, and his strength and future to defeat Mobis and Battle at the Midsummer Festival, and to be able to kill Waltz and Lawson, a young man, can be predicted. And now, what Serek has done is to get on top of him as much as possible, hoping that this young man can stretch his wings and shelter Pafield from the storm. …,

So, for Rod to call himself around like a little man, Serek doesn't care, this young man is the future of Parfield, and for Serek, that's enough.

"I'm just casually saying, ha, ha, in fact, I don't have anything to do, but you............ I'm really curious, Mr. Rhodes, when did you take on two new members? ”

"That's my former subordinates, they only came here this afternoon, and frankly, they came very suddenly, and I was very surprised........."

Saying this, Rod turned sideways and beckoned, and soon, the canary and the little bubblegum stepped forward, facing Serek, the two behaved differently, the canary politely gave a mage salute to Serek, and the little bubblegum just glanced at each other a few times, and then stretched out his right hand and waved, even if it was a greeting.

"Oh?"

Seeing these two girls, Serek's eyes lit up, and he had to say that although the appearance of these two people was not actually the best level, compared with Marlene and Seven Love, they were only at the upper middle level, but these two girls had a very unique and indescribable temperament. It's as if they come from another world entirely, full of freshness and mystery.

Thinking of this, Serek couldn't help but glance at Rod again, speaking of which, he had also had similar feelings about Rhodes, which was not just the difference in appearance between the two sides. It can also be said that a person has this temperament, but if several people have this similar feeling, then it only means that they are likely to have grown up in the same environment. And judging from the black-haired girl with a double ponytail and the girl with black eyes, I think they should also be from the Eastern Mountains like Rod. I'm afraid that only people who come out of that isolated place can bring people such feelings.

But

"These two little sisters are your subordinates, Mr. Rhodes? You have a really good eye. ”

As he spoke, Serek carefully observed the two of them, but he didn't see anything unusual, the two girls were wearing the most ordinary robes, and they didn't wear any magic props and decorations, not even weapons, so they came to him empty-handed......... Are these two little sisters really Rhodes's former subordinates? Or rather

Thinking of this, Serek smiled and shook his head to put his thoughts behind him.

"So, is it right here to take the test?"

"No, it's still in the backyard."

Faced with Serek's proposal, Rhodes thought about it for a while, and finally made a decision: If this place messes up, he will have to spend his own money to repair it, right?

When everyone arrived at the back garden of the base, it was already late at night, but it was not dark because of the lights. At this time, some mercenaries have returned to the stronghold, many of them have been bragging and chatting in the mercenary association, and they all saw Shanna go to invite Sailek, these mercenaries are naturally curious, and after hearing that there are two new people in the guild, many people who like to join in the fun naturally also ran back, wanting to see who joined the guild.

But after seeing the canary and the little bubble gum, all the mercenaries were a little disappointed, and even a little slandered, they also heard that these two girls were Rod's former subordinates, but like Serek, many people actually didn't believe that these two girls who had no equipment and seemed to be powerless had any fighting ability. If they were wearing leather armor, the mercenaries might be able to expect a bit of their fighting skills. But now, both of them are wearing only casual robes and no weapons in their hands, how can they fight? …,

The mercenaries who were watching around were talking, but Rhodes didn't care, he just nodded at Serek, and then turned to the two.

"Which of you comes first?"

"Oh, let's do it first."

Hearing Rod's words, Canary and Little Bubblegum discussed for a while, and then Canary stepped forward and spoke with a soft smile.

I have to say that the girl's smile does have a magic, seeing the canary come out, those mercenaries who were still a little noisy have closed their mouths, they are curiously looking at this mysterious and strange girl, and Serek has also drawn the long sword from his waist at this time, he raised the sword and nodded to the canary.

"When you're ready, we can start the mercenary assessment, little sister......... The rules are simple, as long as you can pass my test, then you will be considered qualified, do you understand? ”

"Yes, I see, Xie Luxie."

Hearing Serek's answer, the canary smiled. At this time, Rhodes made a gesture to Marlene next to him.

"It's good for you to be observant."

"Huh? Ah, that's good, I see. ”

Hearing Rod's words, Marlene was stunned for a moment, and then immediately nodded solemnly. Of course, she understood what Rhodes meant, wanting to become strong is not just about learning skills and awareness, watching those strong people fight is also a process of accumulating experience. Although in the phantom space, the canary is already very strong, but now, after recovering her full strength, what kind of strength will she show?

At this moment, not only Marlene had this idea, but even those mercenaries, although they didn't know the strength of Jin Sihuo, but they also wanted to see how this girl could face a swordsman with her bare hands. And for Rod, this is naturally the best way to verify the function of Phantom Guardian.

Facing Serek, who was putting on a posture, the smile on the canary's face did not change. From this point of view, she is actually very similar to Rod, but Rod's face is indifferent for thousands of years, while the canary always gives people a warmth like a spring breeze and softness.

Then the girl stretched out her right hand.

With this action, the whistling wind rose from the ground, and the swirling wind waves quickly condensed around the girl, and with the spread of the wind and waves, wisps of heat seeped out of it, and slowly spread around.

For a while, many mercenaries felt that the temperature around them began to rise, and then, they saw a scene that made people stunned.

The howling storm swirled around the girl several times before condensing into shape, forming a pair of turquoise wings that stretched out to the sides. At the same time, the girl's right hand suddenly burst into a sparkling, blazing flame, which entwined and twisted into a long staff.

"This, this is."

Serek's eyes widened in surprise, staring at the canary in front of him, and even the surrounding mercenaries were in a commotion. Maybe they were still hillbillies before, but after a trip to the Golden City, these people can be regarded as opening their eyes and seeing the world, and at this moment, the girl's performance is seen by them, and they are naturally aware of it.

"The Holy Soul is on top"

Serek stared blankly at the girl in front of him, and whispered to himself, as a master of swordsmanship, he knew better than anyone else what this meant.

Double Element Manifestation, Legendary Realm.

For a moment, Serek's brain went blank...... ）
