"Uh-huh..............."

When Marlene opened her eyes again, she was greeted by golden sunlight.

"I'm ..............."

She sat up muttering to herself, looking blankly around. For Marlene, what had happened last night was like a chaotic and crazy dream, and she couldn't even be sure what was reality and what was a dream illusion. There was a familiar blend of satisfaction and exhaustion. This is also the feeling that she and Rod will have every time they do that kind of thing——— only at this time will Marlene feel that she is fully relaxed, leaning on Rode's arms, and can give everything to him with peace of mind, and she doesn't have to worry about anything.

But............

Marlene was stunned for a moment, then she shook her head vigorously, putting aside the scene in her mind, it was just a dream, yes, it must be a dream, how could she feel because of that kind of thing? That's so perverted, yes, it's definitely a dream——— there's no way Rhodes would do that kind of thing!

After going back and forth in the depths of her heart a few times, not so much to confirm herself, but to comfort herself with self-comfort, Marlene had time to raise her head again and look at the room in front of her——— this was undoubtedly Rhodes' room, and from the floor-to-ceiling windows next to it, you could see the sunlit fortress and the beautiful green mountains and forests in the distance.........

Wait, sunshine?

It was only at this time that Marlene seemed to suddenly wake up, the Holy Spirit was above, and she had to know that the Tao was in the Land of Atonement, and there was no sunlight in the morning, and in this chaotic place, it was only twelve o'clock to four or five o'clock in the afternoon that she could see the sun, and she slept until noon? How can this be? Oops, there's so much more to do!

Thinking of this, Marlene hurriedly jumped up from the bed. He began to hurriedly grab the clothes and robes he had placed next to him and began to put them on, but even so, Marlene's heart was a little flustered. Because Rod didn't come back for a long time before, it was only now that he finally had a chance to get close to him, but it was a little too much. What if someone else finds out? Although looking at Rod's appearance, he didn't seem to mind this kind of thing being discovered at all, but for Marlene, she still had to have some scruples.

Especially considering Lijie's mood.

As a friend of Lijie's childhood sweetheart. Of course, Marlene understands Lijie's thoughts, but now she is not qualified to talk to Lijie about this topic anymore. But fortunately, Lijie was still relatively innocent and didn't notice any problems, but she didn't get up early like this. And slept in Rod's room, which is unreasonable.

After all, Lijie is just innocent, and she is not a fool.

Oops, what should I say now.........

Meticulously arranging her long hair in front of the mirror, Marlene also thought helplessly about this question in her heart, but did not get an answer. And at this moment, a voice that she was very, very, very familiar with came from not far behind Marlene.

"Marlene, you don't need to be in such a hurry. I'm not a primary school student anymore, so I don't have to think about going out for morning exercises. ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this voice, Marlene was stunned for a moment, and then she turned around, only to see Rhodes, who was sitting next to him at some point, and at this moment he was leaning leisurely in his chair, and what he opened in his hand was the information that Marlene had brought him last night. Seeing this scene, Marlene's face turned slightly red, and then she couldn't help coughing. Stopped what he was doing.

"Rod? When were you there? ”

"I've always been there. It's just that you haven't noticed. ”

Flipping through the information in his hand, Rhodes looked at Marlene with a smile. Frankly speaking, this is the first time he has seen Marlene so flustered, I have to say that this is indeed a very fresh experience, it is very cute to see that the steady and mature eldest lady on weekdays also has such a childish side, but Rod did not plan to ask more on this topic, after all, women's grooming is a very private thing, although a beautiful girl like Marlene does not belong to the type that can be seen with makeup, she becomes a ghost when she takes off her makeup, and she only dresses up with light makeup on weekdays, There is no over-embellishment. But after all, this kind of thing is a woman's own privacy, and as a man, it's better not to deal with it.

"If you're worried about being late, don't worry, I've already told Agarve that you'll wake up late today, and Lijie must have informed her that she didn't have to worry about it."

"Agapy?"

Hearing this slightly unfamiliar name, Marlene frowned in confusion, and after a moment remembered that it was the name of the sea elf that Rhodes had summoned yesterday.

"They're getting to work so soon?"

"That's right, and they're very efficient, and I suggest you see them for yourself, and you're sure to feel different......... From today onwards, Lijie can be freed from those troublesome chores, and in the future, we will have to patrol the inside, clean up and wake up the tasks, and leave it to Agapì and them to do, I have to admit that these sea elves do have a talent for this. ”

"Lijie ........."

Hearing Lijie's name, Marlene was inexplicably a little flustered.

"Lijie, what did she do?"

"She went to the church today for training as a spiritual teacher, and I have decided to let her lead a team of spiritual teachers to be responsible for auxiliary support and healing work on the battlefield......... Well, but that also depends on whether the bubbles can pass the test. ”

"It's good, I know it."

Hearing that Lijie was not there, Marlene couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, although it was not a guilty conscience, but if she had just gotten up from Rod's bed and went to meet Lijie, it did make Marlene a little embarrassed. Hearing this reassuring news at this moment, Marlene finally relaxed a lot. She reached out again and straightened her hair and clothes. Then he looked at Rhodes.

"Then Rod, I'll go back to my room to take a shower and change my clothes first, and besides, last night............ That ............"

"Huh? What happened last night? ”

"No, no, nothing."

Seeing Rod's smiling expression, Marlene decisively stopped the topic, she was not stupid enough to dig her own grave. After nodding to Rod, Marlene turned and left the room. until the door is closed. The girl breathed a sigh of relief, and then, she turned her head, looked at Rod's room with a complicated expression, then shook her head, and turned away.

"It's funny."

It wasn't until Marlene left that Rhodes shrugged his shoulders and put down the information in his hand. Then he held out his hand. Looking intently at the back of his palm, soon, a complex, gorgeous summoning circle appeared from the back of Rod's hand, but unlike before, the inside of the summoning circle at this moment. But there are a few more weird, evil patterns.

That's the standard talent mark of the Master of Hell——— Song of Death.

This is also the result of Rod waking up in the morning with a boring play time after a wonderful night with Marlene. After completing the quest for the ruins of the Custer Plateau, although he was not able to gain experience in destroying the lich (because these experiences were eaten by Seven Loves), fortunately, the bonus experience after completing the quest instinct was still there, and after obtaining the lifebox and completing the five-star mercenary mission, Rhodes was upgraded by three levels through rich experience points. Reach level 33 in one fell swoop and gain six skill points at the same time.

Originally, Rhodes planned to take a look at the situation and then decide whether to improve his swordsmanship or talent, but after he returned to the fortress and listened to Labis's words, Rhodes decisively decided to put the six talent points obtained through the upgrade plus the remaining talent points from the previous one, a total of seven points, all of which were invested in the two talents of the Hell Lord's first and second layers, [Essence of the Dead] and [Song of the Death].

Originally, the talent of Hell Lord itself was defined to allow players to fight alone, so there are many talents in offensive and defensive balance and self-sufficiency. It's like the [Soul Territory] before and the [Essence of the Dead] and [Song of the Death] that Rhodes has clicked on now.

[Essence of the Dead: Soul extraction rate increased by 10%, 20%. 30%。 A sound soul resides in a sound body]

[Song of the Grim Reaper: Withdrawable amount increased by 5%.] 10%，15%。 20%。 Singing is the way to guide the soul to belong. 】

These two talents are required among the Hell Lords, and the Essence of the Dead increases the chance of extracting the Soul Core from the amount of Soul Power from monsters killed by the player. [Song of the Death] can increase the number of extracted souls. In the early middle stage, the talent of Hell Lord was once very popular in the profession of summoning swordsmen, after all, they had extremely powerful rioters in the early stage, and they could be called the talent class with the most summons in the early stage of the Dragon Soul Continent. At that time, many players chose this class, and then summoned a large number of elves to use crowd tactics to drown each other alive.

However, in the end, the flaws of the Hell Lord are also very obvious, the summoning elves have a single attribute, and the individual combat power is far less powerful than the bonuses of the elves summoned by the soul messenger and the summoning master. In addition, the Hell Lord's improvement of the player's individual is also very limited, so that the Hell Lord has fallen into an embarrassing situation after the glory of the early stage.

Originally, Rhodes didn't plan to pay much attention to this talent, but after discussing the soul core with Labis, Rhodes made a decisive decision——— according to Labis, the soul core required by the stone golem does not need to be too strong, and the soul core condensed by the talent of the Hell Lord is large, but the strength is insufficient. But now, since these soul cores are not to be awakened as summoning spirits, but to be used directly, the strength of the soul cores can be reduced.

As long as he uses these two talents, Rhodes can absorb and obtain the soul core on a large scale in a short period of time, and the stone golem itself activated through the soul core can cover up the undead attribute of the soul core......... For Rod, this can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Then the next question for Rod is.........

Where should he go to make the soul core?
