Chapter 433: The Whereabouts of the Key

In the end, Rod couldn't figure out what it was, he just barely guessed that it should be an ultimate talent, but Rod didn't know what this talent was about. Could it be that this world is also the game world, and you have to wait for the expansion to be patched before the complete system will appear?

Rod felt that this was too unreliable.

However, he didn't have time to think about this kind of incomprehensible thing, because at this moment Seven Love had returned to the inn, and brought a not particularly good news to Rodβ€”β€”β€” they had already received the attention of the Eagle City, and today Seven Love had already noticed that many people were secretly observing them, and she herself had been subjected to some small harassment, of course, for Seven Love, it was not difficult to settle these troubles. And the City of the Eagle is not particularly hostile to them, but if it continues like this, maybe something will happen.

But other than that, Seven Love is not without good news, she has already obtained information about the key to the underground labyrinth. It turned out that the four key fragments were lying in the safe of the Eagle City Auction House at the moment, waiting to be auctioned as decorations, and if Rhodes wanted to get these four key fragments, then he had only one way to participate in the auction.

But here's the problem...............

"The auction is only open to the local celebrities and nobles of the Eagle City?"

Rod frowned, staring at the paper in his hand, the expression on his face a little solemn. Seven Love, on the other hand, shrugged her shoulders and nestled on the couch like a kitten.

"That's right, master, I've already tried, it's useless to give money. This auction is only available to insiders, and although there is no catty or conspiracy, it is very high-spec, with our status. It's not easy to get involved in this auction. ”

"It's a real nuisance..............."

Hearing Qilian's answer, Rod couldn't help frowning, this is a good opportunity for Rode, if he can get this key fragment at this auction, it would be great. Once this opportunity is lost, then he will have to run around without saying anything, and may have to use some unformal and legitimate means to seize the key fragments. Although Rhodes is not resistant to these methods themselves, the problem is that the situation inside the Eagle City is not very good now, and he is not an idiot. Stupidly give others a reason and a goal to bombard themselves. So it's best to be able to get this thing in a way that is legal and justifiable and doesn't make people talk nonsense.

But......... Is there really no way?

Thinking of this, Rod rolled his eyes, and then he stood up.

"Seven Loves. I've got something to do. Ann is over to you, watch her, don't let her get into any trouble, I'll come as soon as I go. ”

"No problem. Master. ”

Hearing Rod's answer, Seven Love was stunned for a moment, and then she quickly showed a thoughtful smile and winked at Rod.

"Well, I'm here to wish you a smooth journey."

In fact, Rod's approach was simple and straightforward. Since they are not qualified to go in, then just find someone who is qualified to go in and bring yourself in. Although Battle also has this qualification, Rod has no intention of looking for him, the two sides are more or less competitors, and Rod can't pull this face in front of Battle. Not to mention that Battle is not the City of Eagles right now. It's impossible to ask them for help.

That doesn't mean Ruder Finn doesn't have a target candidate, though.

"Mr. Rhodes."

Walking into the reception room, Natasha saw Rhodes. couldn't help but smile a little happily, and then she hurriedly lifted the hem of her skirt and trotted all the way to Rod's face. Now the daughter of the city lord has finally returned to her usual standard dress of greenhouse flowers, and is not as embarrassed as a few days ago. It's just that after the hard days before, now this eldest lady has also shown a little bit of strength and bravery that is different from others, which can be regarded as a good harvest. And Grundy followed behind Natasha as always, and it can be seen that the relationship between these two people is indeed very good.

"I didn't expect you to come to me, I didn't even have time to thank you, if it weren't for you and your subordinates to protect us, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to escape from the necromancer's hands......... I'm so sorry that I didn't come at that time to express our gratitude to you. ”

Saying this, Natasha's expression was a little gloomy, because that night, after they arrived in the Eagle City, Natasha and Grandi were immediately taken back by the thoughtful city lord and sheriff. And Rod and they were taken to the War Angel Station to hand over the list of bones, because the situation was very chaotic at that time, so the city lord just expressed his gratitude to Rod and the others and then took the people away, but Natasha and the others didn't have time to say anything to their saviors. This made them feel very uneasy, because in their hearts, although when the two sides first met, Rhodes really didn't care whether they lived or died. But I have to admit that after that, he still tried his best to protect the two of them, otherwise, these two people may not have reached the Eagle City alive.

"Don't mind, Miss Natasha, we didn't take this little thing to heart, everyone is alive, and this is a perfect ending."

Facing the somewhat depressed girl, Rod couldn't help but say comfort, and then his eyes rolled.

"But frankly, there's something right now, and I want Miss Natasha to help............"

"What's the matter?"

Hearing this, the girl immediately came to her senses, and she hurriedly raised her head and looked at Rod intently.

"If it's something we can do, I'll try to help you, Mr. Rhodes."

"It's not really a big deal."

In response to Natasha's inquiry, Rhodes spread his hands.

"That's right, Miss Natasha, I want to participate in the upcoming auction in the City of Eaglesβ€”β€”β€” I have a few things that I would like to get my hands on at the auction, but I think you are well aware that this auction is only open to local celebrities and nobles, and outsiders like me are not eligible to enter the venue. But that thing is so important to me, so if you can, I hope you can do me a favor and get us the right to participate in this auction..............."

"Auction?"

Hearing this, Natasha couldn't help but be stunned, she didn't expect that Rhodes came to her for this, she didn't go to the auction in Eagle City, and she knew very well that the auction did have this rule. But the rules are dead, people are alive, and if someone really wants to bring their friends or something to come in and have a look, it's not impossible, but they have to say hello to the organizers of the auction in advance. In any case, the backstage of this auction is still very influential in this area, and if you quietly break their rules, you will definitely be looked down upon and hated, and you may not know when you will wear this little shoe in the future.

Natasha doesn't know much about things that are too complicated, but she thinks she can help with it.

"I don't think there's a problem, Mr. Rhodes, please wait a moment, I'll come as soon as I go."

With that, Natasha turned around and left the reception room. Leaving Rod and Grundy here, and in the face of the girl's distant figure, Rod only shrugged his shoulders and said nothing. He picked up the teacup and tasted the black tea in the cup while looking at the scenery around him with interest. Waiting for what good news Miss Natasha can bring to herself. Then, Rod turned his head and looked at Grandi. Sensing his gaze, the young swordsman who stood straight in place couldn't help but show a hint of an embarrassed smile.

"Mr. Rhodes, this ..............."

"You can see that you have a good relationship."

Rod nodded at Grundy.

"How's your case lately?"

"Blessing to Mr. Tuorod, all the best."

Grandi's expression hesitated, then he glanced around, and then came to Rod's side. He said in a low voice.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦ Although I shouldn't have said this, I still got some news from my father that Eagle City seems to be a little unpeaceful lately, and I ask Mr. Rhodes to be careful. From what I've heard, it seems that someone is trying to work against you. ”

"Thanks for the reminder."

In the face of Grundy's reminder, Rod nodded slightly in response, he had heard about it from Battle, so he was also mentally prepared for Grundy's reminderβ€”β€”β€” but even he knew about it, so does it mean that the other party will be superficial about his actions?

And at this moment, Rod suddenly noticed a dark, cold gaze coming from behind him.

He didn't look back, instead, Rod put down the teacup in his hand, closed his eyes, and soon, his perception spread along that line of sight............ But at this moment, Rod suddenly noticed that the other party had withdrawn his gaze, and then quickly turned away. And he pounced, and found no trace of the other party at all.

Who exactly?

"Click."

Not long after Rod came to his senses, the door to the reception room opened again, and Natasha walked in with a smile on her face.

"No problem, Mr. Rhodes, I've already talked to my father."

Saying this, Natasha smiled and handed the three badges in her hand to Rod.

"As long as you enter the auction room with these three badges before the auction starts, there will be no problems......... Rest assured, Grundy and I will be there that day. ”

That's fine.

Although Rod's heart was still entangled in the gaze just now, his appearance did not show the slightest abnormality, on the contrary, Rod stood up like this and took the three badges handed by Natasha.

"Thank you for your help, Miss Natasha."
