Chapter 246 Very ice, very cold

 Rhodes is very depressed.

He originally thought of many wonderful tricks, not only the Fury of the Void, but also many other means of self-destruction.

As long as the monsters can be gathered together, they can cause huge damage.

But during this period, he has tried it. Monsters do not keep chasing you like mindless idiots. They are chaotic and crazy, following various instincts. Under normal circumstances, monsters

They will not chase you very far. When you escape the attack range, they will ignore you. Some monsters will not even attack you actively.

It is very troublesome to gather monsters together.

And Mavis has this talent.

Her curse of disaster can attract many monsters, as if she is tending to some kind of hatred, and the monsters will chase her closely and cannot be easily shaken off.

Moreover, she also has powerful freezing ability and superb item-making skills.

From this point of view, this is a super perfect partner. They learn from each other's strengths and complement each other's weaknesses. They fit perfectly and there is no leakage.

Moreover, Rhodes once promised her that he would change her destiny. This is a man's promise.

Of course, silver hair and silver eyes are also one of Rhode's hobbies.

But what's more important is her appearance that attracts monsters.

The moment she attracted all the monsters in Fanxing Town, Rhodes was sure that she had to do it.

Monsters and monsters are not obstacles at all. Rhodes also knows very well that she is essentially a human being, a person who has emotions, joys and anger, is shy and moved, so what if she is ugly?

He has seen a lot of beauties, both with and without clothes. With the blessing of the four evil spells, pigs can compete with gods, and beautiful snails can be called princesses. What's more, Mavis is not particularly ugly, and she is also beautiful.

She's somewhat pretty, why can't she accept it?

However, just when Rhodes started thinking about the name of his first child, Mavis was taken back.

How can this keep Rhodes from being depressed?

Although he said he would come back, he was not reassured.

No, I have to write a letter to Horus and Lord Dalin immediately.

Rhodes thought to himself.

Taking a look at humanity, there are only half a million left.

This kiss took a total of nearly 300,000 people.

What's going on?

Is it the shocking pollution caused by her own curse?

Also, why wasn’t she swallowed by the void? Why did she suddenly want to commit suicide? How did the twelve curses on her get out of control, and how were they solved?

There were many similar doubts, so Rhodes decided to ask Mavis in detail in his letter.

With the huge achievements he has made so far, Horus or Lord Dalin should not hide it.

Now, all we have to do is occupy Fanxing Town as soon as possible.

Almost all the monsters in Fanxing Town were pulled into the void by Mephis. If humans don't occupy it, the monsters will.

Rhodes rushed back to the dungeon.

When he announced the news, everyone was stunned.

Since joining Lord Rhodes on his expedition, they have been stunned many times.

But this time the shock was far greater than the previous shock.

O'Hara couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Rhodes, are you mistaken? There are many times more monsters in the west of Fanxing Town than in the east. How could you kill them all at once?"

Kander also said: "This is unreasonable."

Baywood frowned and said: "Brother Rhodes, it's not that I don't believe you, but this kind of thing cannot be joked about. I am responsible for protecting all students and cannot let them be put in danger."

Molly looked at him with a very strange look and did not express her position.

Rhodes was a little disappointed: "Don't any of you believe me?"

Annabeth in the crowd suddenly raised her hand.

Rhodes smiled and said: "Yes, senior sister, I know our friendship of life and death..."

"No, no, I just want to ask." Annabeth's face turned red, and she hesitated before saying, "Are you wearing underwear?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience burst into laughter.

Her good friend and rival Mina was so laughing that she was rolling on the ground.

"Oh, Annabeth, if you want to know so much, wouldn't you know it by getting under his feet and taking a look?"

Rhodes also felt a fever on his face. He was always naked every time he was resurrected. Just now he was so anxious that he just put on a robe and ran out. Unexpectedly, this girl saw him.

"Shut up! Be quiet!"

The laughter in the team gradually stopped. During this time, Rhodes had established a certain prestige among them. One victory after another made them completely ignore Rhodes' age.

Rhodes coughed and continued: "I used the last soul ripple given to me by Lord Theodore. It created a void and sucked in most of the monsters in Star Town."

"Now Fanxing Town has become an empty town, we must occupy it as quickly as possible! This is an order!"

Everyone said in unison: "Yes, Commander!"

After moving Lord Theodore out, everyone no longer had any doubts. To put it bluntly, their grandfather also grew up listening to the legendary stories of Theodore. The magical Theodore is a concept that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

, and Wangcheng has not disclosed the news of Theodore’s death.

Therefore, this is the argument that is most acceptable to most people.

Finally, Rhodes added another sentence.

"Also, Annabeth, from now on, ask me questions like this in private, not in public."

Amidst the kind laughter, Molly quickly made all preparations, and the team drove towards Fanxing Town.

In addition to the combatants, three thousand logistics personnel are also following behind, and they want to thoroughly clean the town.

Like a long dragon of fire, the team passed through the black fog that had turned dull for some reason and arrived at Fanxing Town.

The black fog in Fanxing Town is getting darker.

Everyone could even directly see the sky thousands of yards high and the houses and roads in the distance. It was the first time for many people to have such a novel experience, and they couldn't help but let out a sound of amazement.

It was also the first time for the Fire Keeper to leave the dungeon. He placed the remaining fire separated from the Guardian Fire in the square as their temporary stronghold.

Molly divided everyone into multiple teams and spread them out in a ring to search and deal with the remaining monsters in Star Town, and protect the logistics personnel to clean up the town safely.

After the first round of searching, Fanxing Town was indeed empty, without any threat, and a few monsters were quickly killed by the soldiers.

Ecstasy spread among the team. No one expected that they could occupy Fanxing Town so quickly and truly take the first step in opening up the human living space.

The second round of searching will soon begin.

This time they are very careful. The soldiers will open the door of the house and search every corner of every building inside and out.

Logistics staff will enter the building after confirming safety, carefully clean up all decayed objects, and bring back valuable items for researcher Mina to identify.

The square where the remaining fire was burning was soon filled with various antiques.

They come from the Kingdom of Stars 1,500 years ago. They have precipitated time and sealed the years. Even though they have become decayed, you can still feel the residual warmth of history through them.

How did humans survive in this dark world more than a thousand years ago?

What kind of splendid civilization they developed, and what methods they came up with to fight against the darkness? How did they get swallowed up by the darkness and disappear in the long river of history.

These issues are of great concern to everyone, not just historians.

In such a dark world, the way forward is bleak and the choice of survival is very difficult. One mistake may lead to the death of countless people.

The ruts of their predecessors may inspire them, allowing the surviving humans to go further and avoid catastrophe.

Even researchers like Mina who are determined to pursue the truth are accustomed to looking for answers from history.

It is also a very rare thing that a pioneering team like Rhodes is not equipped with a dedicated historical digger, which shows that no one in the royal city actually thinks highly of them and thinks they can regain Fanxing Town in a short time.

"Lord Commander."

Deep in Fanxing Town, Rhodes was searching for buildings with the strongest members of his team.

Molly possessed him as usual.

"I have sent a letter to Wangcheng, asking them to send professional historians over. Fanxing Town is relatively intact and can unearth a lot of important history, which is of great significance to our understanding of the Third Era."

"Oh."

Rhodes doesn't understand very well. After all, he is a quick achiever. Even though he has been supplementing all kinds of knowledge and common sense, there are still big gaps.

History is one of them.

Molly continued: "Many schools of thought will lean towards us because of this, especially the Jinworth School, whose influence is particularly great."

Rhodes listened quietly. Molly is simply a super all-rounder. She is very proficient in everything. She is an absolutely top-notch assistant. Without her, the team cannot operate at all. Everything is a mess. Her role is second only to Mei

Fes, ranked second.

What's even more valuable is that her loyalty is beyond doubt.

The only shortcoming is that he has a very big prejudice against Mavis, thinking that she is a scourge to mankind, and trying his best to prevent him from contacting Mavis.

Rhodes talked to her several times, but she didn't change her mind. Instead, he vaguely revealed that Mavis was related to some disgraceful cases.

"It's really troublesome."

Rhodes thought.

"I will use my expertise to make her change her opinion in the future."

At this time, I suddenly heard Baywood shouting: "This is the Fire Protection Sacrificial Site of Fanxing Town."

Everyone stopped immediately.

Rhodes turned around and saw a dusty square in front of him. It looked very old. The surrounding buildings were very sparse and seemed very empty.

In the middle of the square is a very large circular building.

O'Hara wondered: "This doesn't look like the Fire Protection Sacrifice. It's located to the west, not in the middle of Fanxing Town."

Kande nodded: "Yes, the guardian fire is usually in the center of the settlement. If it is not necessary, it is best not to adjust the projection range of the fire. This will consume additional power of the fire."

Hunter Awei discovered the difference.

"The tradition of the Kingdom of Stars is to honor the queen. Only important buildings can have the queen's portrait engraved on it, you see."

Everyone looked along her fingers.

Sure enough, I saw the queen sitting on the throne on the outer wall of the circular building.

She holds a staff in one hand and a sword in the other. She wears a starry crown on her head and a starry robe. Her face is shaped like a lake, but her expression is stern and inviolable.

Annabeth also discovered something unusual.

"Look, there are flame signs on the floor tiles under the building."

Molly said seriously: "It seems that there is nothing wrong. This is the Fire Protection Sacrificial Site of Fanxing Town. Their protective fire once burned here."

Rhodes asked curiously: "What will be left after the guardian fire is extinguished?"

"The fire that protects the fire, and the remnants of the fire."

"Can it be rekindled?"

"Yes, igniting a new guardian fire requires its fire, the remaining fire, phlogiston, and firewood."

Hunter Awei interrupted.

"Most of our current guardian fires are lit with fire obtained from the dark world."

Rhodes said happily: "Then we can just light the fire here? There is no need to move the guardian fire of the dungeon."

Awei said regretfully: "It shouldn't be possible. Wangcheng has a special way to find the guardian fire. All the remaining fires within a radius of two thousand miles have been obtained by Wangcheng."

Molly glanced at her calmly: "Awei, you know so much."

Awei smiled politely and said: "Thank you for the compliment, Sister Molly."

A ray of mist from Molly flew to Rod's ear and whispered: "There is something wrong with her. This is upper-level knowledge, and ordinary people will not know it."

Rhodes patted Wu Wu and told her not to worry.

Captain O'Hara smiled and said: "You are so knowledgeable. We are all rough and hard-wearing guys and don't know much about these detailed things."

Kande said: "Even if the fire is not there, the Horcrux holding the protective fire should also be there. This is also a valuable item."

"Anyway, we'll know after we go in and take a look."

O'Hara strode forward.

He has a pure steel body and extremely strong defensive capabilities. He has always taken the lead in dangerous things.

O'Hara pushed open the heavy door of the central building.

Dust fell rustlingly, and the sound of stones rubbing against the ground could be heard far away.

The door was quickly pushed open, and everyone raised their lights and shined their light inside.

This is a very large space, very quiet. The ground is covered with thick white ash, and the terrain is sunken downwards. There is a huge gold vessel in the center, which is covered by piles of white ash, and its original appearance is almost invisible.
p>

"That should be a Horcrux."

O'Hara dusted himself off.

"It doesn't look dangerous."

Annabeth forgot her previous embarrassment for a moment and said happily: "So many fire ashes are gone, maybe the fire is still buried inside? Let's go and take a look."

Rhodes looked around with his soul eyes and found that there was indeed no danger, so he followed everyone into the sacrificial site.

Thick white ash reaches up to the knees. The only function of these ash from the guardian fire is to serve as the base of the guardian fire to protect it.

They are not precious and unknown, but they are indispensable.

Rhodes came to the side of the golden vessel.

It is much larger than it looks, and most of it is buried in ashes.

By visual inspection, it is at least ten yards wide and as tall as one person.

Such a large protective fire is not common.

Rhodes curiously blew away the ashes and lightly touched its edge.

Very ice, very cold.

Suddenly, a gray shadow rushed out from the vessel, and a flash of lightning passed by, stabbing Rhodes in the chest.

Very ice, very cold.
