Chapter 214: Rod's Visit
I think too much about myself.
"Come in."
Thinking of this, Keller straightened his clothes and then opened his mouth, and soon an old butler pushed open the door and entered the room, and bowed Keller deeply.
"Master, someone wants to see you."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Keller frowned, it was his working time, and he didn't want to be disturbed in any way, if he could.
"Who?"
"He claims to be the leader of the Starlight Mercenary Regiment. Mr. Elantt. β
"Mr. Rhodes?"
Hearing the name, Keller was stunned for a moment.
"Why did he come to me?"
It's not surprising that Keller would ask this question, although he and Rod have some friendship, but they don't have a special relationship with each other. And as a mercenary leader, it seems unlikely that Rhodes has anything to do with him, but what is he coming to him for now?
"I don't know about that, sir."
Faced with Keller's sudden question, the old butler didn't know how to answer.
"He just said that he had something to confirm, master, do you need me to ask him to leave?"
"No, you don't."
Keller shook his head and stood up. In any case, Rhodes can be regarded as a considerable force of influence in Deep Rock City, especially among the mercenaries, and the prestige of the Starlight Mercenary Group is also very high. And Keller also knows his aristocratic status, plus the eldest sister of the Shania family who is currently in the Starlight Mercenary Regiment, no one will despise this man. Keller and Rod hadn't been dealing with each other for long, but he already knew that the other party was a very smart and resolute person. In fact, since Deep Rock was in the middle of the dispute, many things have been clues that Keller has only gotten through clues later. But in his opinion, Rhodes seemed to have been born to know all this, whether it was the sudden attack on the Emerald Tears at the door of the Mercenary Association, or the later competition with other mercenary groups, this young man seemed to have nothing he didn't know. And Keller even guessed that the other party might be from the Golden City, but looking at Krause's appearance, it doesn't seem like it?
This young man is really full of mysteries.
Although I don't know what Lu Dao Rhodes is looking for him, but according to the character of this young man, he must have come to the door for nothing.
It's just that I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.
Thinking of this, Keller didn't say anything more, and quickly gave orders to his old butler.
"Take me to him."
When Keller was led by the old butler to the living room, he saw the figure standing in the corner of the living room admiring the armor and weapons placed here. Seeing this figure, I don't know what Lu Dao is about, Keller's heart jumped for no reason, and then he immediately stabilized his mind, and then walked forward with a smile.
"Welcome, Mr. Rhodes, why do you want to come to me today?"
"Hello, long time no see, Mr. Keller."
Hearing Keller's greeting, Rhodes withdrew his gaze from his armor, and then he looked at Keller and nodded slightly, as if he greeted him. Keller smiled warmly, then reached out and invited him to sit down. At this time, the servant who had been waiting on the side quickly brought Keller a cup of black teaβββ and Rod's teacup had already been placed in front of the table, but it seemed that he did not move at all.
"I really didn't expect you to come to me, is there anything wrong?"
After the two sides sat down again, Keller asked enthusiastically, and hearing his inquiry, Rod did not hesitate and nodded slightly. β¦,
"That's right, I'm here to confirm with you, Mr. Keller."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Keller was slightly stunned. He had heard from the old butler about Rod's intentions before, but he still didn't understand what he had come to confirm to himself? But he thought about it for a moment, waved his hand and motioned for his servant to leave the room, and then asked.
"Excuse me............ Did Mr. Rhodes come to me to confirm something? β
"That's right."
Rod narrowed his eyes, leaned back on the sofa, and gently stroked the bright red long sword lying on his lap, I don't know what it was, when Keller saw the other party's slender fingers caressing the hilt of the sword, he felt a chill in his neck for no reason, as if an invisible long sword had penetrated his throat, almost making him cough out.
But Keller held back, he picked up the teacup, took a sip of slightly bitter black tea, and forced the strange feeling down.
"That's right."
Rod's voice was soft, and it didn't sound like there was anything wrong with it, but Keller always felt that the temperature around him seemed to be slowly dropping.
"I've made a bet with some boring people before, and this thing is ............ Does Mr. Keller know what to say? β
"This............ Slightly heard. β
Hearing this, Keller was stunned for a moment, and then replied. Rod and Barney's gambling contract has long been in trouble under the rendering of well-intentioned people, although Keller has been busy during this time, but he still knows a little about the matter itself. But isn't this a matter between mercenary groups? What does it have to do with yourself?
"I won't hide it from you now, Mr. Keller, I needed a lot of flame scrolls for this trip to the Blackstone Abyss, but when I sent someone to buy these scrolls in the market, I found that they were all bought." Saying this, Rhodes crossed his hands and a smile appeared in his eyes.
So poor Miss Marlene had to spend several days on her own, and finally managed to make enough scrolls for use. It is really thanks to her that we were able to leave the abyss smoothly and safely and return to the surface. There's a mage by your side who is really relieved, right? β
"This............ Of course, Mr. Rhodes. β
Keller replied with some confusion, until now, he still couldn't figure out what Rod had to do with what he was talking about. Reel? Our Keller Chamber of Commerce sells ores, and magic items have nothing to do with us.
"However, when we were cleaning up the battlefield, I found a lot of flame scrolls from the poor creatures before, they are all from the shops of Deep Rock City, and ββββ I also found this."
As he spoke, Rhodes reached out and placed a ring on the table, and at the sight of the ring, Keller's face suddenly turned pale.
"Mr. Keller, if I'm not mistaken, your family is in the ore business......... Are you going to switch to the magic scrolls business now? I've been to those shops to make sure it's the Keller family sigil, ......... I would like to be able to get an explanation. β
With this, Rod retracted back on the sofa, his eyes slightly closed, and looked at the man in front of him.
And Keller at this moment is already pale.
Of course, he knew where the ring came from, because it was his daughter's ring.
And now, Keller has finally discovered that something is wrong...... οΌ
