Chapter 581: You're Killing Yourself
"Look for death!!"
Seeing that these people still dared to attack herself and others, Anne suddenly shouted angrily, and then her left hand swung backwards, pulling the chain that stretched out from the pure gold heavy shield, but her right hand was steady, only to see that with Annie's movements, the pure gold heavy shield that was originally in front of Christie and the little mermaid suddenly "whew" and threw away in a circle, and suddenly set off a gust of wind. And those sneak attackers obviously didn't expect Anne's reaction to be so fast, they didn't even have a chance to dodge in mid-air, they were directly smashed by the heavy gold shield that flew into the air, and then flew backwards in embarrassment, falling heavily to the ground.
At this time, Anne, Christie and the others were already empty, and those who passed by to make soy sauce had already moved away from this dangerous area at the beginning of the conflict, watching every move in the distance. However, those sneak attackers were really not ordinary characters, although they were all smashed away by Anne's shield, but they quickly got up from the ground again, brandishing daggers, like poisonous snakes flying towards Anne again.
"Huh?"
Seeing this scene in front of her, Anne couldn't help but snort in surprise, her own family knows her own affairs, of course Anne knows very well that although the blow she just now did not use soul power, but with the girl's innate brute strength and the weight of the pure gold heavy shield, it is at least half crippled to smash on these people. I didn't expect these guys to be as durable as cockroaches, and they were able to stand up after taking a shield from themselves? There are quirks!
However, Anne was not alarmed by this, she naturally did not like to command the team. But in terms of individual strength, he is unexpectedly strong and experienced, and these guys in front of him are so durable. Anne didn't say anything, but quickly shrank back, blocking in front of Christie and the little mermaid, and at the same time, the Adamantite Heavy Shield in her hand was swung out in the opposite direction with a "whew", but this time, those sneak attackers had obviously sensed the power of Anne's Adamantite Heavy Shield, and they jumped away with agility and agility, and then accelerated suddenly. Rushing towards the trio, two black shadows leaped like ghosts to dodge Annie's attack, and then swung daggers at Christie and the little mermaid behind her.
"Got it!!"
Looking at the two fragile girls in front of him, one of them couldn't help but shout excitedly. Seeing the terrible man, Christie couldn't help but scream subconsciously, but even so, Christie still clenched her teeth. Stretched out her hands in front of the little mermaidβββ but even the girl herself didn't notice, and when she stretched out her hand, a strange shadow emerged from her right hand, but it quickly shattered and disappeared like smoke and dust.
At this moment, Light Snow has finally shown her strength as a summoning elf. Although it was just created by Rhodes, the little mermaid can be regarded as one of the summoned elves. I saw those guys rushing towards me and Christie. The little mermaid's face also changed greatly, and then she swam quickly in the water balloon, and then pushed forward with her hands as if splashing water, and with the little mermaid's movements, a little bit of ice crystal-like brilliance flew from her water balloon like a goddess scattering flowers to all around. Then, these bits of brilliance began to condense into each other. Spun, but in the blink of an eye, a barrier formed by the condensation of flying snowflakes and ice crystals was completely unfolded. At the same time, the other party's hand was also stretched out in front of Christie.
However, he was not able to get any closer.
The swirling ice crystal barrier blocked the sneak attackers' further movements, and their sharp daggers could only leave a faint trail on the rotating ice barrier. This made the two sneak attackers frown, but they were not good at it, and after missing the blow, they quickly jumped back and stabbed in the other direction with their daggers again.
"Ding!!"
A dagger glowing with cold light quietly appeared in front of the sneak attacker, blocking his next attack, and then, Joey's face with a strange smile flashed in front of the sneak attacker.
"Ah, that's not going to work, brother, this eldest lady is not something you can touch."
"You're ............!!"
Seeing Joey who suddenly appeared in front of him, the sneak attacker couldn't help but be surprised, he was also a thief, so he naturally understood the danger of being quietly touched by someone, and now this person looks so young and has such a strong strength. But before he could express his surprise, Joey got up and kicked him in the abdomen, kicking the poor creature far away. Then, the dexterous thief rolled over and landed on the ground, smiling at Christie and Anne beside him.
"Oops, sorry, I'm late, sorry, Annie, Christie, and this lovely mermaid lady."
"Ah............ Joey ........."
Seeing Joey appear, Christie, who was originally nervous, was also much more relieved at the moment. However, the little mermaid behind her obviously had no affection for this frivolous thief, but was a little farther away from him.
"You're pretty fast this time, Joey."
Anne took a step back, and Joey protected Christie and the little mermaid from both sides, she looked ahead with a heavy adamantite shield in one hand, and still had time to speak.
"Anne thought you were going to drink somewhere again."
"Hey, that's what you're saying, Annie, I'm working, working."
Hearing Annie's words, a few embarrassed smiles appeared on Joey's face, he tightened the wine jug on his waist, and waved the dagger in his hand at the same timeβββ it turned out that when Joey sent people to follow those alchemists, he found that those unscrupulous guys were secretly contacting someone, so Joey quickly reported to Rod. After hearing Joey's report, Rod ordered Joey to continue to send people to follow him and find out the number and details of these people. That's why Joey hangs behind these people and follows them far away. Originally, Joey thought that these people were just here to inquire about information in the fortress, but he didn't expect these guys to have the courage to attack Christie and Anne......... I really don't know if they should be called brave or stupid.
"It doesn't matter what you're doing. Hurry up and help Anne stop them! These guys are weird! β
"Don't worry, Annie."
Hear Anne speak. This time, Joey was very relaxed, and he even had time to glance at the sneak attackers who were still not afraid of life and wanted to rush up, and shrugged his shoulders.
"Our reinforcements have arrived."
"Boom!!"
As soon as Joey's words fell, a loud bang was heard, and with this deafening sound, the sneak attackers who were originally attacking everyone with their teeth and claws open their teeth and claws were now lying on the ground as if they had been slapped down by invisible big hands, their faces were red, and their foreheads were also bruised. The glimmer of magic flickered and flashed over these people. But it doesn't seem to be working.
Then, the canary fell from the sky, and even then she had a soft smile on her face that had not changed for thousands of years, and after falling to the ground, the canary did not even care about the attackers. Instead, he walked quickly over to Christie and the little mermaid, and looked them up and down carefully. Then he smiled.
"Not hurt, Christie?"
Hearing the canary's inquiry, Christie quickly smiled back, and then shook her head.
"No......... Thank you......... Canary......... Sister ........."
"That's good."
The smile on the canary's face became more and more gentle in the face of Christie's answer, and she reached out. Gently stroking Christie's hair while whispering, "Don't worry, you're doing well, Christie, in that situation." You can also think of protecting the people around you, you are brave......... It's worthy of Rhodes's ........."
Said here. The canary paused, but she didn't continue, nodding to Christie. Then the girl turned around, looked at the sneak attackers, and asked lightly.
"That's all?"
"Uh......... Yes, yes, Canary-sama. β
Hearing the canary's inquiry, Joey couldn't help but turn a little pale, but he clearly saw that although the legendary ** master was still smiling very gently, there was not even a little smile in her eyes, and instead there was a cold brilliance of inorganic matter, which made Joey shudder, and at the same time subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then replied tremblingly. Hearing Joey's answer, the canary didn't say anything, she just glanced to the side, and then stretched out her right hand. Soon, I saw that the sneak attackers who had been pressed to the ground suddenly flew high into the sky, and then they collided one after another, and then formed a pile in the open space next to them. And it was only at this time that the canary clapped his hands.
"I'll leave it to you, disarm these people, and wait for Rhodes to dispose of them. As for the rest, Bubbles has already gone to deal with it. β
Dassault took off his glasses, he leaned back on the couch, closed his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief. And by the old man's side, his subordinates were also tired at the moment. Negotiating with Rhodes was not an easy task, and Dathos did not expect this young man, although he did not look very old, to be so difficult. What's worse is that he is very familiar with the operation and dispatch of the Alchemist Guild, and he is quite sure of his own judgment. This made Dassos want to pretend to be stupid and couldn't find a chance, in order to fight with Rhodes on materials, he didn't spend less effort. If it weren't for the fact that Rhodes seemed to have given up some in the final stages, I'm afraid that the two sides would not have been able to reach an agreement so far.
But now, it's finally over.
"Well, then, it's decided, Mr. Rhodes."
Dassos cheered up, picked up the list of materials in his hand again, and spoke to the young man in front of him.
"According to our agreement, we will pay you half of the materials first, until you have delivered the potion to us and let us confirm that it works, and then we will pay the other half of the materials......... Of course, this transaction needs to be reviewed and confirmed by the church, no problem. β
"Of course."
Rod, who had been silent since just now, raised his head from the table at this time and nodded. And seeing the appearance of this young man, Dassos was a little angry and funny. But now he didn't dare to say anything more. After all, just this little bit of material is enough to make them bleed profusely. In case Rod wants to think about something else. Then it's going to have to drag on again......... Now that the elder is in critical condition, they don't have time to chat here.
Thinking of this, Dassos couldn't help but stand up.
"Then, Mr. Rhodes, without further ado, see if we ............... now"
"Wait a minute."
And at this time, Rod suddenly stretched out his hand and waved, seeing his movements. The old alchemist was shocked in his heart.
"What's the problem? Mr. Rhodes? β
"If I remember correctly, Master Dassault, you said that this investigation team you led represents the will of the Alchemist Guild."
"This ............... Of course. β
Although he didn't know what Rhodes was going to ask at this time, he had already confirmed the question, but Daxos nodded. After receiving Dassault's exact answer, Rhodes reached out and handed over another piece of paper. Dassault took the paper with some confusion. It was just a few quick glances, and then, the old alchemist's complexion suddenly changed greatly.
"Mr. Rhodes, what the hell do you mean by that!!"
"It's simple."
In the face of Dathos's angry shouts and questions, Rod's expression still did not change in the slightest, as indifferent as ever.
"It's a ransom. Master Dassos. β
"Ransom?"
"That's right."
Saying this, Rod's voice suddenly became much lower.
"The alchemists of your guild will attack and injure my men inside my fortress, and this will not be tolerated! If your guild is not willing to give this money, then you can wait to see their bodies hanging on the walls of the fortress! β
And to hear Rod's answer. This time, Dassos's face finally changed dramatically.
"What do you say!?"
As the sun sets, a thick darkness covers the sky. Rhodes stood on the steps of the fortress. looked at the people below who were tied up with five flowers with expressionless faces. Among them were the same group of sneak attackers who had attacked Christie before, and the same group of alchemists who had stormed the alchemy. At this moment, these people were extremely embarrassed in the light of the fire and the brilliance of the magic crystal. And behind Rod, Dassos was also pale, staring at the group of fools in front of him.
"Master Dassos, let me confirm that they do belong to your Alchemist Guild."
"This ..............."
Hearing Rod's words, Dathos hesitated, to be honest, he really didn't want to admit it. But at the moment, Dassos cannot deny this. Among those alchemists, the alchemist is the alchemist who is a very talented genius alchemist in the association, who is not only talented, but also loved by many high-ranking people in the association. The only drawback is that this person is too proud and has a somewhat arrogant personality, but for an alchemist, as long as it does not endanger the association, then it is just one of the many quirks of an alchemist.
As for the attackers in Rhodes's mouth, Dassos is also no stranger, they are the elite alchemy construction combat unit "Egret" in the association, and now that Dassos finally understands why he will dare to rush to the door so confidently, with the "egret" to support them, the idle mercenary guild really has no way to do anything to them. Pity............
Thinking of this, Daxos glanced at the girl standing on the left and right sides of the steps, wearing a mage robe, with a gentle smile, and the girl wearing a spirit master robe, combing two ponytails, and being angry at the moment.
It's a pity this time......... They really kicked it on the iron plate.
"Yes, Mr. Rhodes, they are indeed members of our Alchemist Society."
At this time, Dassos could only sigh helplessly, he could imagine that once he denied it, Rhodes would definitely do what he said, and maybe the next day he could see the corpses of these people floating outside the fortress walls. Although Dassos was hoping that the bastards who had ruined his plan would die soon, he had no way but to help. In any case, the "Egrets" are the elite troops of the Alchemist Guild, and Thomas is also the highly anticipated genius of the Guild, and if they all die here, it will definitely be an irreparable loss for the Guild.
"So, Master Dassault, I think you should know what the Dao did?"
"It's ............ Yes, Mr. Rhodes. I will contact the association immediately and deal with this matter as quickly as possible. β
Said here. Daxos was already a little downcast, and so many things had happened in one day, which had exhausted the old alchemist, and he didn't even bother to care about the bastards......... Can't these bastards investigate before they act?
"Dassault! How can you listen to the gibberish of these barbaric and vulgar mercenaries! β
Hearing Dassos's somewhat helpless answer, the middle-aged alchemist who was tied up and down couldn't help but scold, he struggled to stand up, glaring at the old alchemist and Rhodes.
"And you, you savage. Shameless mercenary, how dare you do such a thing to me! Do you know who I am? I'm Thomas. Kranwo!! I am the first day of the Alchemist Association, and if you dare to do this to me, you will offend the entire Alchemist Association! When the time comes, the Thunder Fury of the Guild will completely destroy you, and you, the tattered Mercenary Guild!! What kind of thing are you woman-like softass!! All savage mercenaries. It's actually ............."
"Smack!!"
Before Thomas could finish his words, he saw a flash in front of him, and then a small bubble gum suddenly appeared in front of him and slapped him in the face. Thomas was in pain and fell to the ground again.
"Shut up, you NPC. What are you? The head of the regiment is also something you can scold? It's just a waste, and how dare you be so rampant? What are you? I kick, I kick, I kick you idiot! A mere NPC, a scrap that doesn't even have a dime of experience points. I'm embarrassed to make a big fuss in front of the regiment commander!? β
Little Bubblegum cursed and kicked Thomas hard. Although the girl is not very old, as a spirit master in the legendary realm, her strength is naturally not small. was beaten by a little bubble gum, and Thomas screamed again and again. And the people around were either watching the excitement or worried about their fate, and no one went up to stop the atrocities of Little Bubblegum. On the contrary, Dassos listened to Thomas's screams like killing pigs, and was secretly worried, so he could only helplessly plead with Rode.
"This............ Mr. Rhodes ........."
"Alright, Bubbles, stop it, it's not fun if you break him."
It was only at this time that Rod, who had been silent, spoke, and when he heard him speak, the little bubblegum stopped angrily, and then kicked hard and was already curled up on the ground, like a green worm Thomas, walked to the side again with his hands in his arms, staring at the night sky dissatisfied.
It was only at this time that Rhodes turned his head and looked at the old alchemist next to him.
"Master Dassos, that's all I can do. I can guarantee their lives until the Alchemist Guild pays the ransom and compensates us for this lossβββ and if your Guild doesn't say anything within the appointed time, I won't spend the guild's precious possessions and food to feed such a batch of waste, you know what I mean. β
"Of course I do, Mr. Rhodes."
"Good."
Receiving a satisfactory answer, Rod nodded, and then he looked at Joey next to him.
"Joey, you disarm this group of people, and then press them into the water prison, as for that guy..............."
Speaking of this, Rhodes looked meaningfully at the middle-aged alchemist who was beaten to the ground by the little bubble gum, curled up in a ball, and groaned in pain, at this moment his face no longer had the arrogant appearance he had when he stormed the alchemy workshop during the day.
"Put him in a black cell."
In the dark, damp, dimly lit dungeon, only the light of a few torches flickered and flickered, and with a piercing grinding sound, the heavy iron door was opened, and Thomas was thrown into it like a dead dog. Then the iron door closed behind him.
"That damn bastard!!"
It was only at this time that Thomas slowly got up from the ground, he clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and his whole body was in pain like a falling apartβββ as a high-profile genius in the Alchemist Guild, when had Thomas been humiliated like this. And now, he was actually treated like this as a prisoner!! This simply makes no sense!! That damn, savage bastard!! When he gets out of here, he'll give that guy a taste of the Alchemists' Guild's wrath!!
And just as Thomas gritted his teeth, waiting to take revenge on Rhodes after leaving here, suddenly, there were several dull chuckles from inside the dimly dark cage.
"Hey, look who this is? Newcomer? Guys, we've got company again. β
As he spoke, Thomas saw five or six unusually strong, mercenary-looking men come out from behind, and judging by their attire, it seemed that they had also been imprisoned for some kind of crime. Seeing their rough faces and tattoos, Thomas couldn't help but feel a little disgusted, he pretended not to see anything, turned his head haughtily, and snorted disdainfully. Seeing his reaction, those people were not angry. Instead, Ha Lu laughed.
"Hey? Quite a temper? I really don't see it........."
With that, one of the men walked up to Thomas's side and reached out to hold him on the shoulder, but Thomas quickly waved his hand and opened his hand.
"Stay away from me, you barbarians!"
Thomas turned his head and stared at the other man viciously, he had never felt so powerless as he did now. No alchemy equipment, no potions, nothing. At this time, he was just an unarmed ordinary person. But what if he had the equipment? Thomas still remembers that while they were waiting outside the fortress for the good news of the "Egret", the petite, arrogant and arrogant girl fell from the sky and leveled them all with just a wave of her hand.
Could it be that in this world, is it really only the strength that is everything?
I'm not convinced!
I'm not convinced!!
In the face of Thomas's hateful and hateful gaze, the man remained unchanged, and he smiled.
"But that's not up to you, boy. Brothers, give it to me! β
As the man spoke, two prisoners rushed up, one left and one right, holding Thomas's arm and knocking him to the ground. At this time, Thomas had no power at all, and could only be at their mercy. But even if he was pressed to the ground, he was not willing to admit defeat.
"What do you want to do? Fuck off, you brut bastards, do you know who I am? I'm ............"
At this moment, Thomas's voice suddenly stopped, because at this moment, he felt that those savage prisoners had actually ripped off their pants!!
"You, what do you want to do? What are you trying to do?!! β
Thomas didn't get an answer, but soon, he felt a pair of large, rough hands begin to roam up his body.
"Tut-tut, that's good......... The skin is tender and the meat is so pleasant to the touch......... I don't know where that little ghost caught this time............ Hehe, this feels so much better than those bastards........."
"You, you, what are you trying to do!? Let me go!! Let me go!! I'm a man!! β
It was only by this time that Thomas could no longer suppress the fear in his heart, and he struggled frantically, but he could not escape from the clutches of the devil at all. Hearing his roar, the man laughed again.
"Of course I know that you are a man, boy, you are not a man, I don't want it yet............ It must be very good to see you so white and tender, come, let me show you the new world of the new world. β
"You, what do you want to do? Don't, don't come, get out of the way............ Ahhhh β
Just as Thomas was frantically struggling, he suddenly felt a thick, huge, hot object enter his body from behind without mercy.
In that instant, all the alchemist's words finally turned into screams and burst out.
