Chapter 228: Unicorn Peak

In the end, Labis didn't let Rhodes wait too long, and at dawn, she regained her senses, and of course, she didn't tell Rhodes what had happened. On the contrary, when explaining the reason why she fainted, the girl always looked flustered, and felt that there were no silver taels here. Especially at the end of the day, the girl felt that she couldn't even justify herself, and as a result, she didn't have anything else to say except to say sorry·········

However, Rhodes obviously doesn't plan to bother with such trivial matters, the most important reason is that the Unicorn Peak is close at hand, no matter what kind of secret Labis is hiding, Rhodes can be sure that as long as he reaches the Unicorn Peak, then he can find the answer.

Unicorn Peak is located in the southwestern frontier region of the Pafield Plains, which is a deserted habitat for wild beasts. Of course, like the rest of the inaccessible places, there is also a relic of an ancient era hidden under the Unicorn Peak, which is not uncommon throughout the Dragon Soul Continent. This is especially true in this age of magic, where cities destroyed by powerful magic or some kind of massive explosion sink deep into the earth and become cold, stiff corpses until later generations dig up their remains and get what they need from them.

Corpse collectors.

Coming to the bottom of the Unicorn Peak and looking up at the steep mountain in front of him, Rod couldn't help but chuckle deep in his heart. The top of the mountain in front of you is sharp and beautiful, and from a distance it looks like a unicorn preparing to rise through the clouds, hence the name of the mountain. However, in Rod's opinion, it is like a coffin for the corpse, and Rhodes will feel this way every time he explores these underground ruins, as if the ruins themselves are nothing more than long-dead corpses, and they are those gravediggers, rudely opening the coffin, and then searching the coffin for the burial goods with the corpses——— from this point of view, the player is even worse than those Obhinia scholars, who will protect the ruins at least But for players like Rod, The intricate frescoes and intricate ancient writing on the stone pillars on the walls were obviously less meaningful than the equipment and weapons that shone with the brilliance of magic.

"Dear sir."

Just as Rhodes was wandering into the world, a voice pulled him back into reality, and Rhodes turned to look to see the old scholar standing beside him, watching him.

"We've reached our destination, you see......... `·”” Keep moving. ”

Rod replied without the slightest hesitation, he knew what the old man in front of him was worried about, although according to an ordinary mercenary group, at this time, they should camp on the spot, rest in place, and then send someone to probe around before moving on, but for Rod there is no need for this. Those scholars are eager to get what they need as soon as possible, and Rhodes is the same, he hasn't been to the ruins of Unicorn Peak, so he naturally knows everything about what is here, but Rhodes doesn't know that this ruins have something to do with the construction chain, but it's no wonder, how can players be so in the mood to climb in front of the murals like these NPCs to translate ancient languages word by word?

If it was Rod alone, even if he didn't have the news of the construction refining here, he would have to consider whether he had time. And now that there are so many free laborers here, Rhodes certainly doesn't mind laughing at their hard work, and of course, the sooner the better.

"I'll divide my men into two groups, and I'll lead some to sweep the ruins of danger that is likely to arise, while the other will protect you as you go. You can do whatever you want, but I want to state in advance that if I find any danger, I will immediately evacuate with you, and no matter how valuable you find, there is no point in dying, isn't it? “…,

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Rhodes."

Rhodes's answer was obviously beyond the expectations of the old scholar, he took his students to walk around the continent and taught many mercenary groups, but these mercenary groups obviously did not understand how important their actions were to the continent. This is true even when exploring ruins, and in many cases, veteran scholars have to argue with reason to ensure that their research can proceed smoothly. The mercenaries did not understand the meaning of the ancient languages and frescoes they translated, and even disdained them - the Holy Spirit was on top, and the old scholars were saddened by the thought of this, history had given them such rich treasures, but they did not know how to cherish and respect them.

Originally, the old man thought that Rhodes was as difficult to talk as those mercenary captains, after all, in all fairness, from the other party's point of view, the mercenary captain's decision was actually not wrong.

It is true that they will die for the reward, but it is another matter to send them to death on their own initiative, and it is not surprising to be cautious in the face of these unknown ruins. However, he didn't expect Rhodes to be so considerate of himself, and he actually agreed to their conditions and put forward his own suggestions, which made the old scholar immediately feel much more relaxed. It was rumored that the mercenary leader was a nobleman, and the old scholar didn't care about it before, but now it seems that he does agree with this opinion. Only the learned aristocracy could understand the meaning of these frescoes and texts, but ···············

Thinking of this, the old scholar was a little uneasy, but soon he shook his head and put aside the slightest uneasiness in his heart.

Fulfilling one's duties is the main priority at the moment, and other things will be talked about later.

After answering the old scholar's question, Rhodes turned to the mercenaries, and then he beckoned, and soon Shanna and Kavos came to him.

"Commander, what do you command?"

"Let them tidy up, no need to rest, let's continue to go."

"Go on?"

Hearing Rod's order, the two couldn't help but be stunned, they looked at each other, and then Shanna asked with some uncertainty.

"But········· Captain, isn't this too risky, it's the first time we've come here, and we don't know what is going on in this ruin, we should send someone to investigate it first, and then say... ……”

"It's fine, but it's a waste of time, and I've made a decision, you just have to do it."

Hearing Rod's answer, both of them couldn't help but glance at each other, if it was someone else, such an answer would definitely not satisfy them. But Rhodes' long-term combat experience made the two former mercenary captains choose to shut up, no matter what, the other party is also the one who once led them to kill the demon in the Black Stone Abyss, there can't be any problems in this kind of thing.

Because of this, although Shanna and Kavos were still a little uneasy in their hearts, they finally kept their mouths shut and said no more.

"Good."

Seeing that the two no longer questioned his orders, Rod nodded slightly, and then he began to assign tasks.

"Kavos, you lead a team of people with me, we are responsible for cleaning up the ruins, don't worry, I know the situation of Unicorn Peak very well, there are no particularly troublesome monsters here............" Saying this, Rhodes paused, and then recalled the distribution of monsters in the ruins of Unicorn Peak in his mind, well, that's right, it's no particularly troublesome monsters———— for him.

"Shanna." Retracting his thoughts, Rhodes quickly turned to the red-haired mercenary on the other side.

"You're in charge of leading the rest of the people to protect the goods, and after we're done cleaning them, they'll be able to enter the ruins, but you'll be careful not to let your people or their people touch things they shouldn't, and if there's any problem or trouble, you can ask Seven Love, and I'll let her stay with you, and you can ask her if you have any questions." If there is any order of the Seven Loves, you will follow it, and it will be regarded as my order. ”

"Yes, sir."

Shanna had no part in resisting Rod's order at all. And she also knows very well, don't look at Seven Love, it seems that she is the latest to join the mercenary group, but she and Rod are definitely the most familiar, not only Marin, but other people in the mercenary group can also see that when he is with Seven Love, Rod will always make some jokes or make some intimate actions that he will not make on weekdays, and he has never even done these actions with other people. The other exception, of course, is Christie.

And the strength of the Seven Lovers is there, in the circle of mercenaries, whose strength is respected, just by virtue of her battle last night, it is enough to make people have enough respect for her. The scorching torrent of flames even now, Shanna couldn't help but tremble when she thought about it, the Holy Soul was on it, she had never seen such a terrible scene since she was born, the rolling flames erupted, flowing and spreading to every corner of the camp, mercilessly involving those who came and going, and turning into ashes in an instant. And then it was just accompanied by a light movement of the Seven Loves.,The fire that seemed to be intensifying.,Almost burning the entire forest, it suddenly disappeared.,As if there was life, it returned to the girl's body.,And then completely disappeared.。 Not even a trace of warmth can be felt in the air, but it makes people feel a chill.

The chill made Shanna still shiver when she thought about it at the moment.

"Good."

I don't know how Rod understood the reaction of the two, and after making sure that they had no objections, Rod clapped his hands.

"Now, you can go about it."

At the same time, he secretly gave orders to the Seven Lovers in his head.

……······ Remember to keep an eye on those guys for me, and report them if they do anything, and Labis.

Of course, master, rest assured, everything is in my hands.

And what replied to him was Qilian, as always, full of careful answers.
