Chapter 181: A Familiar Stranger

Rhodes always thought that there would be no one here, because along the way, he didn't see any traces of the monsters, and he didn't look like a fight. So he felt that this place must have not been walked by, but now he felt that his judgment might be overturned, because at this moment, in front of him, there were indeed two big living people.

"Commander? What's wrong, what's going on? ”

At the same time that Rod was slightly surprised, Anne had already run to his side, and at the same time the girl also took down the shield that had been carried behind her, although Anne was in a daze in life, she did not wake up from sleep, and she looked very grinning, but her reaction was definitely very sensitive in the battle, as soon as she saw Rod stop, Anne quickly subconsciously realized that something might be in trouble, so she quickly prepared for battle, but when Anne saw the scene in front of her, she was as surprised as Rode.

In the dim glow of magic, Rhodes couldn't see the two men clearly, but it seemed to be a man and a woman, a young girl and an old man, who were now surrounded by the goblins, and looked a little helpless. The goblins shouted and brandished their weapons as they surrounded them, slowly drawing closer to the two of them. But neither of them seemed to have any weapons, and the girl had a sharp dagger in her hand, but this kind of thing seemed to be nothing more than nothing more than that for now.

What the hell is this?

Rod hesitated slightly, then shook his head, he didn't know what was going on, but since people were under his nose, he couldn't watch them die. So Rod didn't think much of it, he quickly raised his long sword and aimed it at the goblins who were too excited to sway from side to side as if they had been drugged.

"Annie, go protect them."

After saying this, Rhodes turned into a phantom with his sword and quickly smashed into the goblin group.

And for those goblins who are excited to surround their prey, Rhodes' arrival is also the beginning of their nightmare. The glittering sword light instantly sent several goblins into the air, and then killed them with incredible precision. At first, the goblins didn't know what was going on, and they were quite flustered. It wasn't until the corpses of their companions fell from the sky to the ground that they screamed and fled as if they had woken up from a big dream. But even that didn't change their fate——— a silvery moon arc swept across the ground with ease, completely ending their sounds.

And only then did Rhodes put away his sword and had time to look at the two uninvited guests in front of him.

They don't look like adventurers.

This was the first impression that Rhodes had after seeing the two. The girl standing in front of her wore a pair of glasses, her blonde hair was draped over her shoulders, she looked very quiet, she was wearing an ordinary travel robe, and there was nothing but the dagger in her hand. The white-bearded old man and the girl standing behind her were dressed similarly, the only difference was that he was holding a wooden stick in his hand, which looked like it was supposed to be used to support his actions.

"You are ............"

Looking at the two people in front of him, Rhodes frowned, the appearance of these two people really made him feel very puzzled, because judging from the dress of these two people, they didn't look like adventurers who should appear in this kind of ruin. It is important to know that this place is very dangerous, and it is unlikely that ordinary people will walk here. But it is a bit unscientific that these two "unarmed" people were able to dodge so many goblins and four-clawed monsters and get to this place......... It's not far from the core. …,

Not only that, but there was another thing that surprised Rod very much, he always felt that these two people felt very familiar to him, as if he had seen them somewhere. This familiarity made him quite puzzled, and in fact, when he saw the two of them just now, he almost subconsciously called out their names. However, Rod soon found that he still hadn't called out, and he didn't know what name he should subconsciously call the other party.

Who are they?

Rod carefully looked at the girl in front of him, she didn't look very beautiful, but she was a little delicate and quiet, and a pair of big eyes brought the girl a bit of dexterity and cuteness. But Rod was sure that he had never seen her before, and as for the old man in the back, he seemed to feel a little familiar, but Rod was also sure. I had never seen this old man 100% before.

"You are ............"

Instead of thinking about it here, it's better to ask directly.

"Thank you both for your help."

Hearing Rod's question, the girl also responded politely, she first saluted Rod and Anne, and then continued.

"My name is Alice, and this is my teacher, Fabran, and we are scholars from all over the world who have come here to investigate this ruin. We didn't expect to encounter so many goblins, which really shocked us. ”

"Scholars?"

Hearing the young girl named Alice introduce herself, Rod looked at them slightly, and from the outside, these two people did fit the scholar's description. And Rhodes had seen similar things more than once in the game, but the doubts in his heart did not disappear because of this.

"In such a dangerous place? Aren't you afraid of any trouble? ”

"We're still very confident in that."

The girl chuckled at Rod's cross-examination, and then she took out a compass and showed it to the two of them.

"We have this, through which we can detect those evil and terrible monsters in advance and thus avoid them...... It had been going well, but we didn't know what it was, but when we got to this hall, the goblins rushed over as if they had found something, and we were trapped........."

Speaking of this, the girl's expression was a little embarrassed, and Rhodes glanced at Anne with a strange expression, of course they knew that these goblins were probably because they were aware of their previous battle, so they rushed over, and as a result, they inadvertently met these two people...... If this is the case, then it is themselves who will cause them to go into danger.

"It's a very dangerous place."

Rod was very decisive in putting this question on the back burner, after all, there were more important things to do for him at the moment.

"I think it's better for you two to leave early, this ruin is not as simple as you think. We've cleaned them up, so you can just leave. ”

With that, Rod nodded to the two.

"Well, then, we're going to take our leave."

With that, Rod gestured to Anne, and the two turned to leave. But at this moment, the girl suddenly stopped Rhodes.

"That...... Please wait, sir. ”

"What's the matter?"

Hearing the girl's voice, Rhodes stopped, turned around and asked, he looked at the girl's face carefully, but there was no reason in his heart to suddenly have such a premonition——— she would smile apologetically to herself first, and then put forward the hope that she could go with them.

And at this moment, in the face of Rod's gaze, the girl first showed an apologetic smile, and then asked. …,

"Excuse me......... Can we walk with the two of you? ”

What's going on?

Rod's doubts grew heavier and heavier, he could swear to God that he had never seen this young lady 100%, but his subconscious didn't seem to think so, since he saw this girl, Rod found that he seemed to be very familiar with her, no matter what she was going to do, he seemed to be able to guess......... Isn't this scientific? Rhodes quickly searched through the information of almost all the NPCs he knew in the Parfield area, and then he could be sure that he had absolutely not met this girl named "Alice" in the game.

So how could he be so familiar with each other?

"I'm sorry, I can't take you with me."

Rhodes couldn't figure out why, but he wasn't going to accede to the request.

"We came to this site with our own business to do, so we're sorry we don't have time to waste on unnecessary things."

Rhodes shook his head again and denied the girl's request. He hadn't figured out the origin of his strange feeling yet, so naturally he wouldn't inexplicably agree to go on the road with these two people, although they didn't seem to be particularly unusual from the outside, and Rhodes didn't see any strength between the two. However, he still didn't want to take a risk, knowing that there were too many examples of such good intentions doing bad things in the game. There are even players who help NPCs through hardships and hardships in the maze to reach their destination, only to have the seemingly harmless NPC suddenly turn into a hidden boss. Rhodes didn't want to waste time on something like this and add unnecessary danger.

Hearing Rod's words, the old man behind the girl snorted softly, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Rod's refusal. However, the girl's face remained unchanged, and she continued to smile and ask Rod.

"Please don't say that, gentleman...... Judging by the way you dress up, you should be adventurers, and I can pay you two, how about that? And...... I can guarantee that we will obediently follow the two of you and will never cause trouble for both of you. How's that? ”

Saying this, the girl smiled and raised her head, I don't know if it was an illusion, just now, Rod seemed to see a fleeting golden light in her eyes.
