Chapter 223: An Unquiet Night (I)

"Miss Emily?"

Seeing the girl with long fiery red hair in front of him, Rod showed a rare surprised expression. In fact, he was very surprised, because Rod had no idea that he would meet Emily again here.

Emily. Edward.

The daughter of the president of the Edward Chamber of Commerce in the Fiat region in the south of the Principality of Moon, the most unique thing is that she wants to become a merchant who can travel around even though she is a merchant. When Rhodes went to the Fiat area to sabotage behind enemy lines, he once pretended to be Miranda and Emily had contact for a while, and even triggered Emily's mission, but in the end, for the sake of the overall situation, Rhodes gave up this task, which is also the only task that Rhodes has been marked as "unfinished" after coming to this world. But for Rod, there is no completion without completion, and he doesn't take it too seriously. Originally, Rod thought that this matter would be over, but he didn't expect to turn around and meet Emily again at this time.

After being slightly taken aback, Rod began to look up and down the girl in front of him curiously, compared with the first time he met him before, Emily is now a little less immature and a little more mature. From her confident smile, it can be seen that Emily is very satisfied with her current life, and it seems that she still ran out and fulfilled her dream, but what happened in this, Rod does not know.

In the face of Emily, Shanlide's performance is also a gentleman, and when he saw the two meet, he also made an excuse to take a step ahead of him, and for his departure. Neither Rhodes nor Emily said anything, and soon the three of them found a place to start talking about the past, but before that.........

"Miss Seren, this is ..............."

Emily looked curiously at Angelint, who was quietly following behind Rod. In the face of her inquiry, Rod just waved his hand casually.

"She's my maid."

"That's right..............."

Hearing Rod's answer, Emily looked at Angeline curiously, which made Angelinte's heart a little unhappy, for her, it was a very faux pas to be treated like an ornamental animal by a lowly creature like a human, if it was a normal time, Angeline's unique method was to make this lowly human realize what a stupid mistake she had made, but now. All she could do was bow her head and assume a respectful gesture.

"Miss Salen's maid is so beautiful."

Looking at Angelinte, who was as delicate as a doll, Emily didn't know that she had almost turned around on the line of life and death just now, but she simply sighed curiously. This is because she remembered that when Miss "Miranda" went to Fiat before, she had taken Celia and Celestina's two maids, and for Emily, those two girls were already stunning, but she didn't expect this time. It is a little surprising that Miss Miranda has such a lovely and delicate maid by her side.

Soon, though. The conversation between the two of them shifted elsewhere, and Emily was obviously very happy to see "Miranda" again, so Rod didn't bother too much, and soon learned from Emily about her situation after he left.

It all started after the end of the Civil War.

After the civil war between the North and the South in the Duchy of Moon, the reformers were completely swept into the trash. As a result, the South has experienced considerable turmoil and reshuffle. Although the relationship between Fiat and the reformers was not very close, it was also affected, and the relationship between the Edward Chamber of Commerce and the reformers could not escape this difficulty. However, I don't know if Lu Dao was lucky or unlucky, Rhodes brought down the mine of the Edward Chamber of Commerce. As a result, the Edward Chamber of Commerce was forced to suspend the supply of ore to the reformers, which allowed them to escape the catastrophe. It was not affected much in the liquidation storm, but Rhodes did it enough, the entire mine completely collapsed, and it was impossible for the Edward Chamber of Commerce to dig a new way out, and their opponents also took the opportunity to fall into the well and steal a lot of the business that originally belonged to the Edward Chamber of Commerce, which made the Edward Chamber of Commerce have to start thinking about other ways again.

And Emily also took the opportunity to convince her father, forcing him to agree to her idea of traveling, and since then, Emily has been wandering around as a traveling merchant, combined with the experience that Rhodes once told herself, and some of the ideas she has figured out, she actually mixed in the Continent of Light, and it has gradually grown in the past two years. However, unlike those merchants who want to settle down after making money, Emily still prefers to travel the continent, collecting rare goods to sell, which is not the same as what Rhodes experienced in the game.

Because of this, after Emily heard about Highland City and the Void Lord, she wanted to try her luck here and see if she could find something new, rare and interesting. Of course, Emily is not a fool, she is just a weak woman, although she knows some swordsmanship, but she is only better than ordinary people, and it is good to have the strength to turn positive. And he is a businessman, and he naturally carries a lot of valuable and expensive things with him, and if he didn't even have a little brain, I'm afraid Emily would have been eaten a long time ago. So before coming to Highland City, she also inquired about the situation here. So I came to say hello to Shanlide, who is in charge of the Eleonic family, but I didn't expect the two sides to chat, Shanlide was also quite interesting to Emily, a person who went out as a woman to go out as a businessman, and naturally mentioned Miranda who had impressed him before, and Emily didn't expect to hear Miranda's name here, and was overjoyed. After she was able to go out as a layman, Emily naturally looked for Miranda, and she had some connections with the Salem Chamber of Commerce. But fortunately, at that time, the Seren Chamber of Commerce had been organized by Seven Love and started to carry out its own work, so they didn't know anything about Miranda, but most people didn't actually know the whereabouts of "Miranda", only that the eldest lady often went out and rarely returned to the Chamber of Commerce. Few people have seen her, so naturally they don't know where she is. Although Emily was not satisfied with this answer, it also resolved Rod's crisis in one aspect............ At least his identity won't be revealed.

So Emily is actually very excited to meet Miss "Miranda" here again, just like a student who has learned a lot of things after a lot of hard work. Eager to find their own teachers to prove their progress. And what Rhodes said to Emily at Fiat also benefited Emily a lot, especially after being a businessman, Emily realized how important those experiences were, although they could not help her become rich overnight, but she was able to conduct business in a safer environment. As Miss "Miranda" said before, money can be earned again, but there is only one life. Deeply remembering the phrase "Miranda", Emily chose to let go decisively many times. Otherwise, I'm afraid that Emily would have died in the middle of nowhere.

From another point of view, Rhodes can also be regarded as Emily's "savior", and more than once.

"But......... Luckily for you, it's not been a peaceful time lately, and it's very dangerous for a businessman to be out alone. ”

After listening to Emily's story, Rod couldn't help but sigh secretly. The Continent of Light was not peaceful during this time, and the civil war between the North and the South of Moon was not mentioned for the time being. After that, the attack of the Night Country on the Continent of Light was very fierce, and it can be said that many places were in chaos, especially in the Land of Light, which suffered greatly, in addition to the refugees, all kinds of bandits and bandits were born, wandering around the territory of the Land of Light. In this case, it is surprising that Emily can still make such a result when she wanders alone.

"Hey, hey, hey."

Hearing Rod's words, Emily stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

"Actually......... I've been traveling with someone else lately. As Miss Salen said, this time is not peaceful, and I also feel that my life is more important, and I can make more money anyway. Ah, by the way, Miss Seren, let me introduce you. ”

Saying this, Emily suddenly remembered something, and then she hurriedly glanced around, then she ran to the side, and then pulled out a person.

"This is Miss Stefal, I've been with her all this time, Miss Salen, she's just like you, a trader."

"Oh?"

Hearing Emily's words, Rhodes seemed to show a curious expression on the surface, but at the moment he was surprised in his heart, and he even prepared for the system. And behind him, Angeline also instinctively took a step back at this moment, looking at the girl who was pulled out by Emily with a wary gaze. The two of them were surprised to find that before Emily pulled the girl out, they didn't feel each other's breath at all!

This is definitely not normal for Rhodes and Angelinte, one of them is the inheritor of the dragon soul, the other is the vampire royal family, not to mention anything else, the person who can restrain and hide his aura in front of them to this extent has a powerful strength that Rhode can never imagine!

"Hello, I'm Miranda. Salem. ”

Glancing carefully at the girl beside Miranda, Rod showed an elegant and gentle smile, and then he stretched out his hand, and the other party also smiled slightly, and then held Rode's outstretched hand.

"Hello, Miranda......... Ah, miss, I'm Stefal. Yulia, it's a pleasure to meet you, I've heard a lot about you from Emily......... Now it seems, as she said, you're a very interesting person. ”

Holding Rod's hand, the girl appeared with a soft smile, and at this moment, Rod also took advantage of the firelight to carefully look at the girl in front of him.

She has dark hair, waist-length hair, fair face and dark eyes, and she can be regarded as an impressive beauty. However, unlike Emily in a dress, this young lady was wrapped in a wide black cloak all over her body, and what was even more strange was that in this environment full of Chinese guests and dresses, the girl's unusual dress did not make people feel conspicuous at all, and even except for Rhodes and Angelinte, no one seemed to notice her anymore, and even the banquet organizer Shan Lide, who was chatting and laughing with two fat-headed and fat-eared businessmen not far from the girl, was completely unaware of her existence.

At least it has the strength of the legendary peak.

Rod frowned slightly, just touched. He felt the powerful power contained in the other party's body, not only that, from the contact just now, Rod also felt that the other party had a devilish aura that seemed to be absent, combined with the vigilance generated by himself and Angeline at the moment of seeing each other, then there was only one answer.

Half-succubus? That's a rare existence.........

But. What would a half-demon descendant appear here?

Not only that, but Rod also noticed that when he saw himself, Stefal's eyes showed an unmistakable look of surprise, and it was obvious that she had seen through her true identity.

Maybe it's going to be a sudden nuisance?

A half-demon descendant with legendary peak strength who he didn't know at all came to Highland City at this time, which was for Rhodes. It's not a good thing.

Rhodes did not intend to investigate the girl who suddenly appeared, instead, he just talked to her for a few words, and then turned away under the pretext that he was going to visit other guests. Although Emily was a little reluctant to leave Rod, she also knew that such a friendship between the merchants of the Dao was necessary, so she didn't say much.

"Really, it took me so hard to meet Miss Seren. I wanted to talk to her for a while......... Miss Stefael, you say............ Ay? ”

Looking at the back of "Miranda" in the distance. Emily said helplessly, and when she turned her head to ask for the opinion of her companion, she was surprised to find that Stefael, who was supposed to be by her side, was nowhere to be found at this moment.

"It's really ..............."

For Stefal's departure. Emily didn't seem to be surprised, her companion was such a strange person after all, so Emily quickly let go of her doubts and turned her attention to the hearty food——— after all, she hadn't eaten since she came here.

And at the moment. On the unknown edge of the banquet, in the quiet shadows, Rhodes was quietly watching the girl in front of him.

"Hello, Miss Stefael, do you have anything to do with me?"

Without Emily by his side, Rod's expression at the moment seemed flat and indifferent, his right hand drooped, ready to summon the Holy Sword card at any time. And behind him, Angelin also looked at the woman in front of her vigilantly, ready to make a move at any time.

"Please don't be so nervous, Rod. Your Majesty Elant, I have no intention of becoming an enemy of the ruler here. ”

In the face of that cold gaze, Stefal did not look afraid at all, on the contrary, she still told Rode's true identity with a smile on her face.

"Instead, I just want to make a small deal with you."

"Deal?"

Hearing this, Rod raised his eyebrows.

"That's right, after all, you can't meet the Dragon Soul Inheritor anywhere, can you? Please don't worry, I don't have any ill intentions at all, I just wanted to ask if you are interested in my little deal..............."

Saying this, Stefal reached out and took out a small pendant from his bosom, which was a strange pattern of three circles set together at first glance, and Rhodes's eyes lit up when he saw this pattern.

"You're a plane merchant?"

"It's really worthy of Your Majesty, do you actually know the way? I thought I'd take a bit of a chance to explain it to you........."

Hearing Rod's inquiry, Stefal showed a somewhat surprised expression. And in the face of her answer, deep in his heart at this moment, Rhodes set off a monstrous wave, he didn't expect his luck to be so good that he could meet a plane merchant here!

The so-called plane merchants are merchants who travel between planes to buy and sell, and most of the goods they own are varied, quirky, and have everything. In the game of the Dragon Soul Continent, the plane merchants belong to the extremely rare existence, their refresh, location and coordinates are never fixed, it can be said that the player wants to meet them completely by luck, but the equipment that these plane merchants have is not generally good, although it is not necessarily powerful, but it must be extremely weird and strange, and the things they sell even include many products that do not belong to this world. There was even a player who once purchased a giant bipedal robot from a plane merchant!

Rhodes remembers the first time the player appeared in the square in a robot, and all the players and their friends were stunned. It was from that time that the Plane Merchant went from a legend among players to a confirmed existence. It's not that no player has specifically searched for them, but the plane merchants are too mysterious to find their traces. It's just that the things purchased from the plane merchant are not invincible, just like the player who bought the bipedal robot before, in a later boss dungeon battle, the machine was damaged and self-destructed......... And then it was over.

Looking at the girl in front of him, Rhodes was full of surprise and curiosity at the moment, he had not yet met a plane merchant in the game, but now, he didn't expect that he had encountered such an opportunity.

That's a lot of money.
