"!!!Uhh

As the last soldier screamed and turned into ashes in the flames, the flames that were originally burning suddenly disappeared, and as far as the eye could see, there was not even the slightest trace of scorched flames on the surrounding grass, and the green grass was so dazzling in the moonlight.

"It's bad luck."

Rod glanced at the two men and women who were standing still, frowning, and then he stood up and gestured to Seven Love and Anne.

"Alright, clean up, it's time for us to get out of here, two small troubles bring a bunch of big troubles, I'm not interested in any of them, let's go back a little bit, and wait until tomorrow morning to move forward again."

"No problem, master."

"Yes, Captain."

Hearing Rod's words, Seven Love and Anne both nodded, but just as Rod took action and was about to leave here, he saw the two "little troubles" trembling in front of him. Walking in front was a young man dressed as a warrior, who looked to be no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, slightly younger than Rhodes. However, judging from the dress, this young man is not a mercenary, and compared with the mercenary, his dress is slightly more formal. After all, as a kind of pragmatist, mercenaries are how to put their equipment at their fingertips, and because of this, many mercenaries will have some weapons such as daggers and knives stuck in front of their waists at any time in case of emergency. The young man in front of him was wearing a set of leather armor that looked very elegant, and not only that, but the family crest of the nobles could also be seen on his long sword, which showed that this man was either a son of a nobleman or an attendant serving the nobles. And the girl behind him is delicate and cute, although she is still a little worse than Seven Love and Anne. However, the whole person revealed the strong smell of the greenhouse flowers. It's kind of charming.

Before Rhodes turned his head, the two men were still staggering, looking like they didn't know whether to approach the cat and mouse. And after Rod turned his head and looked at them, the two men stopped in fright, but the young man was still quite guts, and under Rode's gaze, he still raised his courage. walked up to Rod, and then bowed to him very seriously and respectfully.

"Thank you very much for your help, we are ..............."

"I'm not interested in who you are."

Rhodes interrupted the man's speech.

"I've made it clear that I don't like to get into trouble. I don't want to get into trouble, you can do whatever you want, don't come and pull us into the water, I'm sorry. I'm busy and don't have time to meddle. ”

Hear this. The young man's face couldn't help but turn red, and he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't know how to say it. And after Rod said this, he stopped talking to the two. At this time, Seven Love had already woken up the old coachman who had fainted due to fright, and asked him to leave with everyone. At this moment, Rhodes also opened the car door and planned to get into the car. But at this time, the girl, who had been following the young man, suddenly ran out.

"Please, please wait a minute, Mr. Rhodes!!"

"Huh?"

Hear the girl's voice. Rod frowned, then he looked back. Look at the girl in front of you. Seeing him turn around, the girl, who was still a little uneasy, confirmed her guess at this moment, she clasped her hands in front of her chest, and then, half-pleadingly, looked at Rod's face.

"You, you're the president of the Starlight Guild, Mr. Rod, I'm right. So, if we are willing to pay you, would you like to take our commission? ”

"How do you know my name?"

By the moonlight, Rod carefully looked at the girl in front of him again, and then he was sure that he had never seen this person 100%, but the other party could recognize him? This is not scientific, there is no Internet and candid videos in this world, how did this eldest lady who looks like a greenhouse flower know her identity?

Seeing that Rod did not deny it, the girl was much more relieved, and she let out a long sigh before continuing.

"Hello, first time meeting, I'm Natasha. Derene, I'm ......... Daniel, Lord of the City of Eagles. Teresa's daughter, I once followed my father to the Golden City for the Midsummer Festival, so I ..............."

I see, it seems that this is really a young lady, but if so, it is not surprising that she will recognize herself. Originally, there would be city lords and others from various territories participating in the Midsummer Festival, and if this girl was really the daughter of the city lord of the Eagle City, as she said, then it would not be surprising that she had participated in the Midsummer Festival and seen herself.

"Miss Derene."

Now that the other party has already revealed his identity, then Rod is really not good to just leave, but he has no intention of asking for trouble with an excess sense of justice, for Rhodes, the most important thing at the moment is time, he can't even be busy with his own affairs, how can he be busy with housework inside the Eagle City?

"Although I am indeed the president of the Mercenary Guild, I don't accept all the commissions, and besides, the Eagle City is within the power of the Purple Lily Guild. As the president of the Parfield Mercenary Guild, I can't interfere without permission, and if I meddle in the affairs of mercenaries in other regions at will, it's not a good influence, do you know what I mean? ”

"Ah...............h

Hearing Rod's answer, the girl's face darkened a little. And at this time, the young man who had been standing silently beside the girl suddenly stood up, and he solemnly saluted Rod again, and then raised his head and looked straight at Rode.

"I understand what you mean, my lordship, but in that case, I have a proposal———— we are now being hunted down, although we want to contact the Purple Lily Guild, but you have also seen that with our strength, it is not enough to safely return to the City of the Eagle and get in touch with the Purple Lily Guild, therefore, I hope that you can escort us back to the City of the Eagle and protect us until we get in touch with the Purple Lily Guild, are you willing to accept this commission?"

“…………………”

Hearing the other party's words, Rod couldn't help but glance at the young man in front of him with some curiosity, and saw it. This young man's mind turned very quickly, and his demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant, but quite a bit of style, and I have to say that this commission did not violate Rod's previous words, after all, the rules are dead, and people are alive. You can't expect to be able to hire a bunch of mercenaries to serve you at all times, if only to protect them from getting to the Purple Lily Guild Residence. This task was not a problem for Rod.

Thinking of this, Rod couldn't help but be silent for a moment, frankly speaking, he didn't want to involve too many "side quests". After all, I went to the Eagle City this time to complete the guild mission, and I didn't have much time to spend on these details. And from the scene just now, it can be seen that there is a force chasing these two unlucky little troubles. If Rhodes made a gesture to protect them, then no matter what he thought. are likely to be treated as enemies by the other party.

But on the other hand, if these two guys are abandoned. If the other party is really the daughter of the city lord of Eagle City, then Rod is obviously asking for trouble, after all, behind this girl is the official agency that represents the Eagle City, and Rod has not been idle to the point of provoking the official agency to play. Not to mention that he didn't come out to play this time.

But think about it, if it helped them. Then at least if you can get the official favor of Eagle City, then it will be good for your future exploration. But giving up on them doesn't mean that you can give up the troubles, and this choice is a bit more than worth the loss.

Of course, it wasn't impossible for Rhodes to just kill these two people here and act as if nothing had happened——— but now it seems. It doesn't seem like a good choice.

Thinking of this, Rodra opened the door. Then, he nodded at the two of them.

"Okay, I'll take your commission, come up."

Hearing Rod's answer, the two immediately showed expressions of surprise, and then, they also hurriedly followed Rhodes and walked into the carriage, and then the carriage set off again.

Now that he has chosen to accept the commission, Rhodes no longer has the intention of letting the carriage go backwards, but gallops all the way, driving directly in the direction of the Eagle City. After all, he originally planned to go back and pretend that he didn't know anything to avoid trouble, but now that the trouble has been taken, then there is no point in pretending to be stupid, it is better to set off directly to the Eagle City, and strive to reach the destination in the shortest possible time is the best choice.

Now that he was on the same thief ship, Rhodes didn't worry much anymore and asked the two of them what happened. Soon, he learned the ins and outs of the matter from the young man named Grundy——— who was the son of the sheriff of Eagle City and grew up with Natasha. This time, the two of them were originally representing their respective parents, accompanying the envoy of the Eagle City to the border area to inspect the situation there. This is a very ordinary journey for most of the children of the nobility. After all, as the heir of a nobleman, it is also important to be familiar with the territory he will rule and manage in the future. So every once in a while, something like this happens.

However, this time things are not too good, during the inspection process, this Miss Natasha did not know whether Lu Dao was lucky or unlucky, and actually discovered some extremely dangerous secrets hidden by the other party. And what's even more unfortunate is that the other party also noticed this, and even turned his face on the spot, not only killed the envoy of Eagle City, but even killed Natasha's guards, and in the end, only Grandi protected Natasha and rushed out all the way, they and the pursuers for two days and two nights, and then ran to the White River Valley, if it wasn't for Rod and others, I'm afraid these two little troubles would really be dead.

I have to say that although this Miss Natasha looks dumbfounded, and she belongs to the flowers that she is used to soaking in the greenhouse, she looks weak, but as a nobleman, she still has more or less political acumen, although she keeps saying that she has discovered major secrets, but what are these secrets, Natasha did not reveal half a word to Rod. However, Rod naturally didn't want to ask more, and was able to force the other party to turn his face directly, kill the envoy and guards, and even try to murder the city lord's daughter. This is certainly not as simple as the wife gossip on the streets. But such a big secret, let's leave it to Battle's muscular man to deal with.

The only thing that gave Rod a little headache was that, judging from the situation in front of him, Eagle City didn't seem to be peaceful.........
