Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 174: On the move

"Let Annie go?"

When Rhodes called her name, Annie tilted her head curiously, thought about it, then nodded.

"No problem, head, Annie, wherever you let Annie go."

Having said this, Annie refocused on the food in front of her and resumed her struggle. It seemed to the girl that she really didn't care what Rhode asked her to do. Anyway, let her do it, then she would do it right. As for why they are themselves and what they are going to do, does this matter to Annie? With all this time to think about this problem, it is better to solve a little more bread in front of it.

"Do I need to go with me too? Mr. Rhodes?"

Li Jie and Malin glanced at each other, and the former whispered.

"no need."

Rhodes shook his head. The remains of Black Pine were not troublesome and there were no undead creatures. It was unnecessary for Li Jie to follow him. Originally Rhodes did not plan to bring Annie, but the mystery ball alone could not hold him alone. Although the name of the mystery ball doesn't sound very big, but table tennis is a ball, blue ball is a ball, and the moon is a ball ...... Rhodes doesn't think he can pick up the moon. Originally, in the game, he needed a heavy-loaded character to get the mystery ball. Rhodes did not have barbarians, but Anne's half-beast was not bad ... at least stronger than herself.

"I hope you take good care of Christie these past few days, she has just arrived here, there must be many places that are not used to. You are all girls, I think you should be more clear about her thoughts."

"Ok."

After hearing this, Li Jie hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed. She didn't think there was any problem with Rhode's arrangement. In fact, Li Jie herself really wanted to stay with Christie. However, this little girl seems to be a little bit uncomfortable with the new environment and keeps a certain distance from them. She would let go of her guard only when she was next to Rhodes, so Rhodes could now speak to make Li Jie closer to Christie.

"When to set off?"

Marin glanced at Annie, who had nothing in her eyes except the food on the plate, and asked her the question instead.

"Leave tomorrow morning. I will let Landor take charge of buying two ferry tickets in a while. If there is any news from the Administrative Officer, just say I'm not there. I'll talk about anything when I come back."

During this time, Rhodes has also reported to Krause about Gaoya Village. As for what Krause wants to do and what to do, it is his business and has nothing to do with himself. Anyway, the task is completed. Even if the idiots in Gaoya Village want to cry and go home to find their mother, that ’s their business, but it ’s hard to say whether they have the courage.

"I understand."

Upon hearing Rhode's answer, Marin nodded slightly and stopped talking. But just then, Rhode saw Christie holding the water glass in her hand and staring uneasily at herself. There was a hint of attachment and reluctance in the eyes.

"... Rhodes ... are you leaving?"

"I just go out and do something."

Facing Christie's uneasy inquiries, Rhode sent her a smile to appease the surname, and then continued to speak.

"Don't worry, you'll be back in a few days."

"………Ok………"

Facing Rhode's answer, Christie nodded and said nothing. In fact, the girl's own mood is now very complicated. When she was in Gaoya Village, she never encountered any good things. The girl has become accustomed to such a life and will not have any thoughts because of it. There is no harm without expectation. Since Christie has never expected that the villagers will treat themselves kindly one day, they will not feel sad because they will punch themselves. Even the old village chief is the same. Although it was because of his upbringing that Christie passed through the most difficult time, the old village chief ignored her and treated her as air. Think the same. Christie has also accepted her own life, although it seems to others that such a life is a pain. But for Christie, getting used to it means nothing. It's as if a person was born in an extremely cold place in the snow and ice, and someone who came from a warm place would definitely feel frozen to death. But for those who were originally born here, they have become accustomed to this severe cold, and they are not very disgusted except that they feel a little disturbing.

But now, girls feel that their lives are a bit painful.

Indeed, everyone treats her well, but the better they treat her, the more afraid Christie feels. Since birth, the girl has never tasted the warmth on earth, but when it comes to indifference and pain, she probably knows better than anyone in the Starlight Mercenary Regiment. Christie knows how cruel people can be, and what they can do if they really hate themselves. This made her very worried and scared. Now Li Jie, Annie and Marlene are very gentle to her, even Christie has never enjoyed such warmth. But the more she did, the more she feared that if they later abandoned themselves, they would not be able to accept such a blow.

This kind of worry is considered unnecessary by ordinary people, but it is a smooth matter for Christie. After being born, many people are greeted by their parents and surrounded by friends in a warm environment. Grew up here. Of course, they may have suffered a lot afterwards, but the warmth they have enjoyed since birth gave them a bit of goodwill. But Christie is different. She has been the object of disgust, curse, hate, abuse and beating since she was born. It is not surprising that she is desperate for the world and full of hatred inside. Christie can still have a pure heart, which is very rare ...

So whenever Li Jie showed a gentle attitude to Christie, and the girl wanted to respond, she instinctively began to worry about this issue-the human self-defense instinct made the girl friendly to others. The hand was hesitant, and she was worried that she would be hurt if she got involved in it. In that case, keeping the distance at the beginning might make her hurt a little bit ...

Only in front of Rhodes, Christie would not have such an idea. Only by seeing him, Christie would let go of the problem that has been entangled in her heart, I do n’t know why, facing this and herself Almost the same person, Christie did not have the slightest precaution. She felt comfortable staying with Rhodes, and would not think about it, which made her feel comfortable.

Because of this, Christie did not want Rhodes to leave, but because of her encounter, the girl has become more precocious than many of her peers, so Christie knows that she should not be a surname at this time. So she just nodded and didn't say much, but her expression was obviously lowered.

With Christie's expression in his eyes, Rhodes felt a little embarrassed, but he didn't say much. Feelings and reason are two different things. It will take longer for her to go out later. Christie cannot always follow her, and her physical quality also determines that Christie is even less likely to go far ...

But Rhodes has no better way now, and although sorry for Christie, he can only do so.

In the early morning of the next day, Rhodes took Annie to the "port" outside the upper part of Deep Rock.

On the surface, the port here seems indistinguishable from other places. A ship is moored in it, and thick and long cables hang down from the ship, hanging on stone pillars to maintain the balance of the hull. Lines of rafters connect the hull to the port, while workers are holding goods or pushing trucks to transport specialty products such as ore onto the ship, while the carriages are stopped on the other side, waiting for vegetables and fruits from the ship. Products of.

Everything seems to be indistinguishable from the lively trading ports of other commercial cities-if you ignore them, they are built on the mountainside.

In the game, Rhodes was once amazed by this spectacular scene, but he didn't think it was so bizarre. The game, no matter how real, is the data. What ’s so strange about getting down and flying down the sky? But now in reality, when he himself was standing in this lively port and watching the ships floating in the air, Rhodes thought it was incredible. Just watching the ships floating in mid-air, but without any power system to keep them floating, only one rope to tie it, Rhodes felt that this thing was too unreliable, what if these ships fell down? ?

He glanced at the floating ship not far away, shook his head, and then raised his cloak to cover his face. He didn't want to cause any trouble this time out, so Rhodes planned to keep a low profile. He also knew that his face always caused trouble to him. From a young age, the teacher always regarded him as a girl and his peers always regarded him. When girls look. It was not until the game that Rhodes was comfortable. He could choose to build a burly male character without worrying about being seen as a female surname. This is one of the reasons why he is so passionate about the dragon soul world. At least in this virtual world, no one will mistake his last name because of it ...

Turning around now, Rhodes finds himself tragedy again ...

He couldn't redesign his personalities like in the game, and he could only find as little trouble as possible in this way. But Rhodes didn't have much time to think about his past and present issues, because there was a very lively guy beside him ...

"Ah, Captain, Annie has found our ship!"

Annie carrying the Adamantite shield, excitedly running around Rhodes, and then she reached out and pointed at a ship not far away, and looked in the direction of her fingers, Rhodes soon saw A two-story passenger ship, hovering quietly in the port, with a golden wing pattern embroidered on the erected flag. After looking at the pattern, Rhode lowered his head and looked at the ship in his own hands. The same pattern on the ticket.

That's it
