Chapter 113: The Yellow Sparrow in the Back (First Update)
Chapter 113: The Yellow Sparrow Behind (First Update)
For Old Walker, Rhodes was a very contradictory being.
On weekdays, he is always so determined, stubborn, and even quite tough, aggressive, and crazy, daring to kill at the door of the mercenary association, and unabashedly stated at the mercenary joint meeting that he wants to completely destroy a mercenary group. This makes Rhodes look like a raging madman, but on the other hand, he is very careful and cautious, even to the point of timidity. This time in the Dusk Forest, Rhodes asked Old Walker to look around to see if there was anything unusual around. Obviously, this time they are not here to carry out a mission, it is just a run-in and training between ordinary mercenaries, but looking at Rod's appearance, if he is seen by someone who doesn't know the way, he will think that they are fleeing.
However, Old Walker also knew that Dao Rod's worries were not unreasonable, after all, he had torn his face naked with Emerald Tears at the joint meeting before, and in Deep Rock City, those guys under the noses of the Mercenary Association might still have some scruples, but now that they have entered the Dusk Forest, it is difficult to say, if Emerald Tears secretly follows behind them to launch a sneak attack, as long as they and others die here, then even if the Mercenary Association wants to investigate, it will not find any evidence.
So Rod asked for the idea of heightened vigilance, old Walker still appreciated it, which also put him at ease, after all, Rhodes' performance showed that he was not the kind of reckless man who only wanted to be refreshed, if he just tore his face with the Emerald Tears in public for a bad breath, and he didn't care about the other party afterwards, then it can only show that Rod is a single-celled creature who only relies on instinct to act, in this case, then things will be very troublesome.
And Rhodes didn't just verbally remind Old Walker what to do, he even pointed out several directions to Old Walker, so that he could keep an eye on the movements there. This surprised the old ranger even more, he couldn't figure it out, seeing that Rhodes's age was only in his early twenties, how could he be so skilled in this kind of black and black thing?
But Rod's reminder paid off after all.
"There."
Hidden in the bushes, Old Walker pointed to the faint black dot in the distance and whispered to Rod. Rod looked in the direction of his finger, and after a moment of intent, he asked.
"How many people are there?"
"About six or seven people."
"Did they find us?"
"I think these guys were found following the trails we left behind."
The old ranger's tone was full of confidence, after all, tracking and anti-tracking are the old business of the ranger, if he can't even do this, then he should retire and go home and eat himself.
"What about the other locations?"
"No one has been found yet."
With that, Old Walker turned his head to look at Rod.
"What are you going to do?"
"What should I do?"
Rod snorted at the elder Walker's inquiry, and then he replied in a categorical voice.
"Of course it's to kill them, and since these guys dare to come, then I'm sure I won't let them go back."
At this point, Rod paused.
"I need your help. By the way, tell Shanna and Lando that they should strengthen their guards after dark, and by the way, let Lando set up traps within five meters of the camp as the center. ”
Hearing this, old Walker was taken aback.
"Just the two of us? The others .........."
"They don't need to know."
Rod shook his head, he really had no intention of joining those newcomers into the operation, on the one hand, these people were not strong, and on the other hand, they had not yet gained Rhodes' trust. You must know that the battle between the mercenary groups is different from those monsters, most of them are guilty of killing their own kind, and they may gradually try to accept it after they have experienced many dangers and tests, but this does not mean that they like to do it. Now it was the mercenary association's "Strike Hard" period, and he didn't want any time bombs in his team. …,
So God knows this, you know and I know.
"I'll stay here and observe the further actions of these guys, you can go back and inform Marlene and Shanna, by the way, I want you to observe a few other places, I don't believe that Emerald Tears is really so stupid, I think that sending such a few people can completely take care of us, I suspect they are playing some tricks, leave it to you."
"No problem."
Hearing Rod's arrangement, Old Walker nodded with a serious face.
"I'll go now."
It's getting late.
As night fell, the dancing bonfire lit up the dimly lit camp, and the delicious aroma overflowed from the pot, making the mercenaries who had been tired all day in front of the fire even more drooling and their index fingers fluttering. They even tried to pick up their food and start feasting, but when their eyes turned to a quiet, lonely figure sitting on a rock at the edge of the camp, the mercenaries had to restrain themselves and sit quietly in their places like good children.
Lijie's mood was a little low.
This time she was not because of the previous accident, but because Rod did not show up with her, and this afternoon old Walker came to tell him that he was in a hurry and would not be back in the evening. And he also asked Marlene and Shanna to pay attention to the safety around the camp, and not only that, but Rhodes also sent a person who they didn't expect.........
Thinking of this, Lijie raised her head and looked at the lonely figure.
The angel girl sat quietly on the rock, her white wings spread slightly, as if she was enjoying the moonlight bath, she closed her eyes slightly, there was no expression on her holy face, and the whole person was like a sword out of the sheath, giving people a cold and sharp feeling.
Celia's appearance was not unfamiliar to the few people who had participated in the battle in the Silent Heights, and they all knew that it was the young commander's subordinates. But Shanna and Lando, the newcomers who had just joined the mercenary group, were almost frightened after seeing Celia, and their angels were noble and rarely went out. And now, a noble angel would follow Rod's orders to come to the camp to protect them, which is really flattering to everyone, and because of this, those who used to act unscrupulously are now much more restrained. Although it seems that Celia does not care about the actions of these mortals at all, having such a holy angel sitting by her side will feel a little pressured as long as it is not the kind of guy who is hopeless to the bone...... After all, according to legend, the angels were the attendants of the five dragons, and they were responsible for conveying the orders of the five dragons and fighting for them. Although it has been a long time since that distant era, these remaining legends are still deeply memorable.
And what surprised these people even more was that such a noble angel could actually be Rod's subordinate?
This not only made the newcomer Lando and the others frightened their legs weak, but even Shanna, who had a few encounters with Rod, was dumbfounded, they also knew that Roder was a nobleman, but they didn't expect that his identity was so noble that he could use angels as his entourage, Holy Soul Blessing, what is the identity of this man?
In addition to being shocked, everyone couldn't help but feel a little proud of their choice, although theoretically speaking, joining Emerald Tears could get a high reward. But following this young man, who always acted unexpectedly, was clearly more promising.
It's just that, unlike other people's simple thoughts, Lijie always has some doubts about Celia.
For Lijie, the appearance of this angel named Celia was so sudden, she had never heard Rhodes say that she had an angel subordinate, and she had never seen it. But this young lady suddenly appeared in front of her, saying that she was Rod's subordinate, and Rod's obviously acquiesced to this statement. But Lijie is still curious, where does this girl come from? Who is she? …,
In the mercenary group, only Marlene knows the true identity of Celia, but Marlene is not the kind of person who is too talkative, she knows very well that Rhodes does not want to expose this kind of thing, so she has never told others, and for Marlene, this is also a little secret in the girl's heart that only belongs to herself and Rod.........
On the other hand, Anne is still that cheerful and lively appearance, after seeing Celia again, Anne even took the initiative to run forward to hold her hand, chatting with Celia quite familiarly, and even "boldly" touched Celia's wings, I have to say that when they saw Anne do this, everyone was almost stunned, for fear that the noble angel would be angry and leave. Luckily, though, it doesn't seem like Celia has a problem with that — or rather she doesn't show any.
Cutting a few slices of tender meat from the roasted hare beside her, Lijie stood up, picked up her plate, and walked towards Celia.
"Miss Celia."
Hearing someone call her name, the angel girl opened her eyes and turned her head, only to see Lijie standing beside her, holding the plate in her hand with some uneasiness.
"That......... Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat? ”
"I'm not hungry."
Celia shook her head slightly, and quickly replied. This made Lijie a little embarrassed, she just stood by the angel girl's side like that, but she didn't know what to say. Before, she was just on a whim, and then she suddenly wanted to talk to the other party to get to know this girl. But I didn't expect things to develop so awkwardly......
Just when Lijie was in a dilemma, Celia opened her eyes again, turned her head and looked at Lijie carefully, and then spoke.
"You have my blood........."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Lijie was instinctively startled, she subconsciously took a step back, and then raised her head and looked at Celia uneasily, waiting for her to speak next.
But Lijie didn't expect that after Celia said this, it was as if the communication between the two had ended, and she turned around again, closed her eyes, and began to enjoy her "moonbath".
“………………”
At this moment, Lijie even had the heart to cry.
