By the time Rhodes arrived at the "crime scene", it was all over.

The originally flat ground was now blasted out of a charred black ball, and the flames jumped and flickered on the charred grass, carrying billowing black smoke. All around, five or six heavily armed guard-looking guys were lying on the ground, pale looking at the "culprit" who was standing just a few steps away from them.

"Next time I hear such rude words, I promise you won't have another chance to see the sun tomorrow!"

Marlene glared angrily at the few guys who had been scared and weak-legged, looking at her back, Rod only felt that an invisible killing intent was almost so thick that it was about to turn into tangible flames and rush up——— it was a miracle to be able to make Marlene so angry.

"What happened?"

Rod walked over to Lijie, who was at a loss on the sidelines, and then asked in a low voice. Seeing his arrival, Lijie, who was still a little dazed and at a loss, hurriedly grabbed Rod's hand as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, and then stammered.

As Rhodes had heard from Labis, the caravan had arrived shortly after Rhodes had started camping, and like Rhodes, they had taken a fancy to the site and wanted to camp here. However, the way these people were obviously rude, perhaps because they saw that Lijie and Labis, who were outside collecting firewood, were easier to bully, so they viciously threatened them to leave as soon as they came up. Labis was naturally too frightened to say more, but it was Lijie who expressed her dissatisfaction there. In her opinion, this place is so big that it can accommodate two teams, not to mention the first come, first come, why should she and others make way for these caravans?

Although what Li Jie said is very reasonable, but in this world, there is reason that cannot go all over the world, and a big fist is the last word. The group of people who couldn't say anything about Lijie immediately became angry, and they saw Lijie wearing the robe of the spirit master's emblem. Naturally, he subconsciously thought that she was a bully, so he began to threaten the two. Seeing that something was wrong, Lijie also hurriedly asked Labis to find Rhodes, and she confronted the other party here.

So far. Everything was still within Rhodes's expectations.

But what happened next was completely different.

After hearing about what happened to Lijie from Labis, Marlene immediately rushed to Lijie's side, although she really didn't care about Lijie's current combat skills, just a few guards. But as a friend since childhood, as soon as she heard that Lijie was in trouble, Marlene naturally rushed over.

Lijie really didn't encounter any danger.

Although these guards behaved fiercely, they were not bandits after all. Bright fists to scare little girls are not a problem for them. But it's another thing to show your knife and do it. So they are also gentlemen who don't move their mouths, but they just taunt and insult Lijie there, but they don't really wave their fists and hit them.

But now it seems that it would have been a wiser choice if they had actually done it.

This group of guys should be unlucky, when Marlene arrived, she happened to meet them who were using those obscene, low-level, and even important ** parts. And the shameless speech that blends her with her family provokes Lijie, and when they see Marlene, these people immediately include her without any pressure.

This is a hornet's nest.

As a great nobleman. As a person with a strong sense of self-esteem, when Marlene watched the other party swaying her hips back and forth while swaying her hips and smiling lewdly at the same time to make them "come here and strip naked, let me have a few refreshments", her reaction was naturally only one. ..., and when Lijie wanted to stop it, it was obviously too late.

The only fortunate thing is that these people were not directly roasted into jerky by Marlene, and for that alone, they should be grateful for the blessing of the Holy Spirit.

At this moment, the guards looked at the girl standing in front of them with cold eyes, with pale and iron faces, and they realized now that what they had just done was as dangerous and stupid as putting their heads in the mouth of an angry roaring lion without care. How dare they insult a mage! Is this because you have lived too long?

It is difficult to ride a tiger to describe the current situation. They wish they could go back in time to before the conflict, so that they would never make the same mistake. But it's a pity that there is no regret medicine to take in this world, and such a profound spell that rewinds time is not something they can use. What now?

While these guards were trembling, Rhodes thought for a moment, and then he walked to Marlene's side and pressed Marlene's shoulder.

"Alright. Marlene, I'll take care of it here. ”

"Mr. Rhodes?"

Hearing Rod's words, Marlene raised her eyebrows, and then there was a hint of hesitation on her face, but in the end, she still put down the staff in her hand, and then retreated to the side very unhappily. I have to say that after training in the mercenary group for so long, Marlene still has made some progress, if she is just joining the mercenary group, just relying on these few words said by these guards, it is enough to send the other party directly to hell to be the devil's company.

But now............ Although she was annoyed that the other party didn't choose to speak, but after getting along with the mercenaries for so long, Marlene also knew that most of the mercenaries were actually like this, so she gradually got used to it - of course, it's one thing to accept, but it's another thing to hear others say it in person. Even in the Starlight Mercenary Regiment, those mercenaries, out of respect and fear, never spoke so openly in front of Marlene and Lijie and other girls. So you deserve these guys' bad luck, don't you.........

Seeing Marlene turn to leave, the guards got up, they looked at Rhodes in front of them in horror and trembled, but they didn't know what to say, they had the heart to turn around and flee from this ghost place immediately, but they felt Rod's cold gaze, and their legs were as heavy as lead, but they couldn't even walk half a step.

The Holy Soul is above, how could he be so unlucky! Damn, I knew that Lu Dao didn't say a few words just now, wouldn't there be so much to do? Now, now, now............ What can I do?

Just when these guards had no master of the six gods, and they didn't know how to do it, at this moment, from behind them, there was a thick and somewhat panting voice.

"What's wrong, what's wrong? How did you guys do this? What happened to the explosion just now? ”

Hearing this voice, several guards suddenly felt that their whole body suddenly relaxed, this voice that sounded simply irritable and disgusted to the extreme on weekdays was as beautiful as a natural sound in the ears of several guards at this moment, and they even breathed a long sigh of relief——— the next thing is not something they can handle, as for what will become after this, they can only resign themselves to fate.

Thinking of this, these guards relaxed a lot.

And at this time, Rhodes and the others also heard the sound coming from behind those guards, looked up, and saw several carriages loaded with goods parked on the side of the avenue in the distance, and a fat figure was panting and running towards this side, looking very funny.

But I don't know what the voice is, after hearing this voice, Rod and Lijie were stunned for a moment, they always felt that this voice seemed to be very familiar, Buddha had heard the same ............ somewhere, and soon, the owner of the voice came to them.

It was a fat businessman, and at the moment he was wearing a wide robe, and his round face was covered with shiny beads of sweat and greasy. It can be seen that this fat businessman always lacks exercise on weekdays, and he is already out of breath after only running such a short distance. But even so, he gasped as he came to the side of a few guards, frowning, and staring at his men.

"Why don't you speak? Dumb? Well? What's going on? Who are they? ”

As he spoke, the fat merchant turned his head, he glanced at Labis, who was a little frightened next to him, frowned suspiciously, and then looked at Marlene, who was standing next to him and fiddling with the staff in his hand casually, his face sank slightly, judging from the scene and traces in front of him, the fat merchant had almost guessed what was going on......... Damn, this bunch of idiots provoked a mage? I already knew that these bastards were unreliable, and when this deal was completed, they must all be fired!

While sighing inwardly, the fat merchant took a deep breath, and then he raised his head and looked at Rod and Lijie. As a businessman, reading words and emotions is an important skill, and the reason why he didn't immediately pay attention to Rhodes as soon as he came up was to find out what was going on, and now it seems that things are really troublesome. The virtuous fat businessman of his guards is also very clear, and he has actually thought about firing these idiots more than once. But it has been delayed because of such and such problems. Now it seems that indecision has brought him a somewhat unbearable end——— this group of idiots even dares to provoke mages? Why don't they die well? This bunch of damn ............ Bastard!! Thinking of this, the fat merchant couldn't help but secretly complain, but it was not a way to continue to delay time like this, and in the end, he had to grit his teeth, raised his head and looked at Rod——— hoping that the other party was a reasonable master.

After seeing the two of them, the fat merchant was stunned, and then he raised his right hand, his eyes widened in surprise, and he looked at Rod in front of him.

"You, you, you, you............ You're not............ Mr. Rhodes?!! ”

"Long time no see, Mr. Mace."

Facing the fat merchant's greeting, Rod nodded expressionlessly, and then, he glanced at the truck not far behind the fat merchant.
