The mission of hunting the dragon was successfully completed.
Only one hunter was seriously injured, and he was immediately sent to the church medical center. Several central medical practitioners came to treat his injuries and purify the corruption in his soul.
His injury stabilized quickly and his prognosis is good.
The others only suffered minor injuries and were quickly dealt with.
The only thing that worries me is that the black mist at the bottom of the sewer is thick and the dragon's corrosion is strong. Everyone has been corroded to varying degrees.
Fortunately, the time was short and the core of the soul was not invaded.
When the soul priest was cleaning up the corrosion for them, he unexpectedly discovered that Rhodes' soul was pure and flawless, with no trace of blackening.
This is a very rare thing.
Human beings born in this dark world cannot be completely exposed to the black mist. There are some traces of corrosion and blackening in everyone's soul.
"This is really strange. Your soul structure is perfect, as pure as a virgin, as if you were born in a world full of sunlight, without any distortion, corruption, erosion or distortion."
The Soul Pastor praised sincerely.
"And you are still in that world."
Rhodes asked slightly uneasily: "Is there any problem?"
"Problem?" The soul priest said in surprise: "How can there be a problem? This is a miracle, the blessing of fire!"
The surrounding hunters all made a sound of surprise.
Athos smiled and said: "As expected of our new star, his soul is different from others."
Jahan, the leader of the hunter group, is also smiling.
The corrupted dragon was successfully eliminated, and the threat from the sewers was reduced again.
Sooner or later, humans will completely control this royal city.
The hunter group will also be commended by the royal city for this, and they may be able to get more resources from the Supreme Council this year.
"Sorry, Mr. Rhodes, I misunderstood you as a bad guy who bullies others. I didn't expect that you are actually our new star."
Jia Han touched his bald head.
"To express my apology, I have decided to grant you the title of Old Hunter. Together with the rewards from the Dragon Mission, your Hunter Medals of Honor have exceeded one thousand."
"Now, you can make an appointment with Master Leilu to forge a soul weapon for you."
Rhodes asked: "Who is Master Leilu?"
Jahan said proudly: "The best soul forging master in the royal city, he was once a hunter, so he will give preferential treatment to the hunters who forge weapons with him."
Athos reminded: "But you need to prepare the materials yourself. This opportunity is rare. You must prepare the best materials to create a unique soul weapon."
Rhodes had not yet come into contact with soul weapons, so Athos gave a brief introduction.
The classification of weapons is measured by rarity. In ancient times, people believed that the more precious things were, the rarer they were. Although current research suggests that this view is not very accurate, in order to commemorate the achievements of ancient researchers and not cause customary confusion, the royal city remains
This standard is followed.
The levels from low to high are widespread (junk), numerous, common, rare, extremely rare, and unique.
The soul weapon that has reached the unique level is a perfect weapon. It has extremely strong spirituality and will fit the owner very well. It can make up for the owner's shortcomings, or strengthen the owner's strengths, or cooperate with the owner's characteristics to further improve the owner's actual combat ability.
Go up some stairs.
But making it is also very difficult. In addition to a large amount of precious materials, it also requires the top masters to carefully create it, and there must be a certain chance to succeed.
Although he is not really the only one, he is one of the few in the royal city.
"You can make an appointment now. Master Leilu is busy with work, so it usually takes a while before it's your turn."
Rhodes thought for a moment, and he remembered that in addition to the Hunter's Medal of Honor, he also had the King's Medal of Honor.
Wang once reminded him that he could use it to exchange for materials.
"Okay." Rhodes agreed: "Make an appointment for me now."
So, the matter was settled.
This is another happy day, everyone is happy.
Except Aduo.
After the riot in the tavern, Rhodes' true identity was exposed, and he actually didn't hide it much.
But this is a major blow to Aduo.
The eldest brother in her mind turned out to be three years younger than her. The dream of her eldest brother and her little sister living happily together was suddenly shattered, and many carefully conceived indescribable scenes became unacceptable.
But Rhodes comforted him a few words, saying that he looked like a primary school student (sixteen years old) on the outside, but inside he contained the soul of a big brother. The appearance of a person is just an illusory morning mist, and the core is a delicate flower.
As long as he is the big brother in his heart, he will always be the big brother.
After saying this, A'duo turned from worry to joy, and his title became more pleasant, Brother Rhodes.
Rhodes also took the opportunity to find out some news about Mavis from her.
It's a pity that there is nothing particularly useful. I only know that she prefers to drink marigold plum wine.
Seeing that A'duo began to invite him to her house again to see the flowing lily, Rhodes said goodbye and returned to the secret base to continue his training mission.
The harvest from this trip far exceeded his imagination. 330,000 souls were enough for him to upgrade his [Sense of God] to a higher level.
He also made an appointment with a weapons master, and Rhodes was determined to build a weapon that had nothing to do with sewers and rice barrels.
The only bad thing is that he owes Void a large sum of psychic energy and has to start borrowing money to live off his life.
[Stone of Resurrection] Hurry up, or I will die.
Although Yao Po was nowhere to be seen, Rhodes was not worried, but it was a pity that the divinity had not been covered for two days and was about to be used up again.
Before going to bed, he specially found a wealthy lady like Kashan to learn the social etiquette of the upper class in the royal city.
——
The next day.
Rhodes got up early, carefully packed himself, put on a set of exquisite clothes, left the base, boarded the carriage, and arrived at No. 17 Flower Thorn Street.
This is a very busy street. Today is another hot day. The street is crowded with people. People come and go in the shops on both sides, and noisy shouts come and go.
Rhodes walked according to the house number, turned from the bustling street to the dark alley, and found the house number of No. 17 Flower Thorn Street in front of an old attic.
Rhodes coughed and knocked on the door.
"Is Mavis here? I'm Rhodes."
Crisp footsteps came from inside the door, and a few seconds later, with a creak, the old mahogany door was opened.
Mavis is inside.
Today, she has obviously done some dressing up. She is wearing a long dress as white as white flowers, which complements her silver hair and silver eyes. She wears silver hair accessories, supplemented by light red streamers, and long crystal pendants on her head.
Her beautiful cheeks swayed gently, reflecting countless brilliance.
Her makeup was exquisite, her long hair was pulled up, revealing her swan-white jade neck. Little bits of sunlight refracted in from the gaps in the alley, shining on her beautiful side face, making her look like a goddess.
In this dark and old environment, she is the only one who is dazzling, like a white flower blooming in the midst of corruption.
Rhodes was a little distracted for a moment, but at least he remembered what he had learned yesterday, took a step forward, and bowed gracefully.
"Miss Mavis, it's an honor to meet you. Your beauty is as dazzling as the sun and as elegant as the moon."
Since Mavis didn't move, Rhodes had no choice but to gently hold her delicate hand and kiss the back of her hand.
A slightly cool feeling came from her lips, and her skin was as white as jade.
Mavis watched his movements, the sunlight shone on her silver eyes, reflecting an indifferent look, and said softly: "Come in."
She turned around and walked inside, and Rhodes quickly closed the door and followed her.
The light inside the house is dim, which proves that her spiritual lamp is small, the interior space is small, the layout is simple, and the furniture is old, indicating that she has a living loan.
This is not normal.
While Rhodes was thinking, he racked his brains to find topics.
But Mavis didn't reply and walked all the way to the back of the attic, her bedroom.
This place is even more simple and narrow, with only a bed with a gray curtain, an old wardrobe, and a table.
Mavis said softly: "Have you brought the Puppet Wood?"
"I brought it, no, no, I didn't bring it. Why should I bring that thing?"
Mavis took out a puppet wood from the table and handed it to him.
"Use it on me."
Rhodes frowned slightly. The reason why the Puppet Wood is listed as a prohibited object is because it can control people's minds and make people obedient like puppets. Some lawless people use it to do evil things. Therefore
Under the strict control of the royal city.
But when he saw the look in Mavis's eyes, he still took the puppet tree, pointed it at her, and poured spiritual energy into it.
The invisible spiritual thread rises from the puppet tree and reaches towards her.
Mavis did not activate his spiritual power and completely gave up resistance.
However, after the spiritual thread came into contact with her spirit, not only did it fail to control her, but it wound back and tried to control herself through the puppet wood.
And Rhodes is protected by humanity, and all corruption, erosion, control, and charm directed at the soul will not work.
With a clang, the spiritual thread was severed, and the puppet wood in his hand turned into powder.
Mavis said softly: "Are you disappointed? I am immune to mind control."
Rhodes patted the debris on his hand and said with a smile: "How could it be? Isn't this a good thing?"
Mavis looked at him indifferently and said softly: "I feel loss and regret from your emotions."
"Wouldn't you rather give it to me as a gift of five hundred silver cords?"
Mavis said calmly: "I have something more important to give you."
She took a few steps back and stood beside the bed.
"I'm very grateful for what happened yesterday, and I also know that you helped me because of my appearance..."
Rhodes coughed: "I need to reiterate what I said. I hope you can become my partner because our abilities are very compatible."
Mavis said softly: "They all said so."
"But I'm different."
Mavis suddenly smiled, her silver hair and eyes shining in the dim light.
She spun around in a circle, her skirt flying like white flowers in bloom.
"Am I beautiful?"
"No one is more beautiful than you."
"Am I in good shape?"
"Exquisite curves, graceful and swaying many times, making people coveted."
"Want to go to bed with me?"
Before Rhodes could think of a reply, Mavis had already put her hand on her collar and gently took off the necklace hidden under her clothes.
"First take a look at my inner essence."
The next moment, silver-white starlight fell like clouds and mist, obscuring her figure.
When the star mist dissipated, the beautiful goddess turned into a monster-like old woman, with raised eyebrows, a bloody mouth, and wrinkles on her face like dead branches. Her long silver hair turned into gray weeds.
Her eyes turned into cloudy ones, and the snow-white dress formed a huge contrast with her withered body. The beautiful hair accessories and exquisite crystal pendants reflected her ghost-like appearance, which made people even more nauseating. This extremely ugly old woman is the missing medicine woman.
She showed a ghostly smile and asked in a hoarse voice: "Do you want to go to bed with me?"
The impact of this scene is enough to drive any normal person insane.
However, Rhodes only showed a smile.
He bowed gracefully again, took her chicken claw-like right hand, and kissed the wrinkled back of her hand.
