Sitting quietly in his room, after some thought, he finally formed a general plan in his mind. The pain in his body made him know that this ingest was really hurt too much, and his body was empty and he could not feel the existence of Dou Qi at all. He was empty.

After a sigh, I had to endure the fatigue and enter the practice. As the practice continued, the Dou Qi slowly recovered and flowed through the meridians, constantly nourishing, and felt very wonderful.

Like the past practice, every time I have been practicing for a Zhoutian, I always feel the suction force coming from my dantian. I will absorb my Dou Qi and then find that I will reduce the Dou Qi by half.

The Roddjan, who was used to, didn't care much, and continued to absorb external elements into his body. He never stopped for a whole day. With the supplement of a day, he barely recovered the nine levels of fighting spirit, which made him secretly ashamed. This time it seemed that it was really exhausted. If it were the past, a day would be enough to restore himself to his best condition under any circumstances, and this time...

However, surprises are indispensable. Just like his feelings in the sea of ​​consciousness, he has indeed made progress. Even the nine-level fighting spirit is a little stronger than his original heyday. The tempering of life and death has further improved him.

I was still scared when I thought of that scene, and at the same time I was full of doubts about my own changes. I vaguely remember that I had no consciousness that day, and all I had left was killing and unwillingness. Resentment filled my whole heart. Now I think I was still vaguely timid about that feeling, and that state was too terrifying.

There are still some sequelae hidden in the muscles. You can feel the soreness. It is caused by the accumulation of lactic acid in the muscles after reaching the extreme exercise, and it is accompanied by a little muscle strain. However, this is not a big problem. I believe that you can fully recover after a few days of rest, so Rhodes didn't take it seriously.

Looking at the quiet room and a meal on the table, he showed a smile. It seemed that Kiro and the others had been here, but he didn't notice it. However, this feeling of being cared for made him feel warm.

Lying in bed, he completely relaxed his spirits. He is not suitable for doing anything now. The task period is still a few days, so he is not in a hurry. He simply gave himself a small vacation. After wandering on the verge of death, he really needs a good rest.

……………………………………

"Hahaha... I didn't expect that today I was so lucky that I actually knocked down the Fire Bull. Now the mission has finally been completed." A cheer came from outside the door, and it was Anderson's voice, waking up Rhodes in his sleep.

I opened my eyes and looked at the crack in the window, but I didn't expect that it would take a day to lie down.

"Okay, now we have done what we should do, should we go back?" Then I heard Anderson's inquiry.

"Let's talk about it, there is still a little time. Let's go and see Rhode first. I don't know if he has practiced. I'm really trying hard. I started practicing as soon as I woke up." After interrupting Anderson's words, Kiro's faint voice came.

The sound of footsteps approached my room, opened my eyes, and hurriedly sat up. After a day of rest, my spirit recovered a lot, and I no longer felt so tired, and my body recovered even more terrifyingly. I actually felt no pain during this day of rest, and the soreness in my muscles also relieved a lot.

"Cruff..." The wooden door was opened, and a sharp sound came, followed by Kiro and the others' figures.

"You have practiced." Looking at Rod sitting on the edge of the bed, Kiro asked in surprise.

At the same time, like Anderson and Alice on the side, I felt a little shocked. This guy's recovery ability is really perverted. It's okay to practice as soon as he recovers, which only shows diligence. But at this moment, he looked rosy and energetic. If it weren't for the bandages and the few of them knew the whole story, who would have thought that this guy was still on the verge of death the day before, and who would have thought that this guy was still unable to move when he woke up yesterday.

"I finished practicing in the morning, and I saw that you all left, so I slept for a while. Well, it's very comfortable. I've been bothering you these days."

He stood up slowly. Although he was a little uncomfortable, he got better soon and walked up to the few people and said with a smile.

"You... are fine." At this moment, the people almost dropped their chins. This guy actually recovered to this level. He was injured in his internal organs, muscle strain, bone cracks, and trauma. Not to mention the trauma, he was able to walk the next day when he just woke up, and it was no longer different from a normal person.

"It's okay, what can I do?" Seeing the eyes of several people, I looked around myself in confusion, and found nothing unusual and looked at them with a puzzled look.

"Ahem... It's fine, haha, what's the trouble? You saved us that day. If you don't say much, it's the best thing for you to recover. In this way, we're just free in the past few days, so let's take a walk together. In a few days, we probably will be back to the Imperial Capital. Are you going? Take you there to see."

Stop Anderson who wanted to speak, Keero could not know what this guy wanted to ask, and then turned to look at Rhode and said with a smile.

"Imperial Capital." When he said these two words, a figure could not help but appear in his heart. His face turned red and disappeared quickly. Fortunately, no one was discovered by others. The person who appeared in his mind was Lucia. His charming face, moving smile, and long light purple hair actually remembered her.

Only then did I realize that I have not resented her because of the death of my comrades, after all, just like the captain said, a mercenary, when you enter this field, you should have the awareness of death. Don’t complain about your employer because of anything. On the contrary, there is a different feeling that is growing. When she has occupied a place in her heart and connected the imperial capital with her.

Thinking of that face, the corners of my mouth raised slightly unconsciously, and my eyes softened, making people unable to see it.

"Rod...you...you are fine." Seeing Rod's sudden change, Kiro and the other two looked puzzled.

"No... it's okay, haha, is the imperial capital? I will definitely go if I have the chance, but I probably have no time for this period of time." After a sigh, Rhode said with a wry smile. Although he really wanted to go, he still had things to do, but he always went back, even for his promise.

"So, what are you going to do?" Alice asked softly.

"I've gone to hand in the mission first. The deadline is coming. I'll plan to go back to the Fire City. I don't know if Cambie and the others have been there for a long time. There are still some things to do." When I said this, my eyes gradually dimmed. The most important thing is to go back to the place where the old man fought last, hoping to get a clue. If I can see the old man, it's naturally the best thing to do. Although I know that this is not a good possibility, it's this hope that Rhodes has such a strong desire.

"You can hand in the mission in Tielan Town. I'll take you there when you're in better health. There's a mercenary guild there. As for the City of Fire... you really have to go back." When he said about City of Fire, Kiro's face changed slightly and asked in confusion. He could actually guess a rough idea of ​​Rhode's thoughts.

"Yeah." He nodded vigorously to express his determination, and at the same time he secretly called himself careless. How could there be no mercenary association in such a place where mercenaries gather? He was too careless.

"Okay, why do you say so much to do? Hurry up and sit down and rest. Rhodes have just recovered." After a while, Alice urged.

After saying this, he seemed to realize that his face turned slightly red and avoided everyone's eyes. Anderson's eyes were a little complicated, while Kiro had a clear smile. As for Rhode himself, he had no reaction.

…………………………………………

"Well, I'm tired, go back first. You can continue chatting. Rhodes, have a good rest. Look at your appearance, you should be able to go out for a walk tomorrow." After a while of chatting, Kiro said with a smile. After chatting, he also learned a lot of things. Unexpectedly, Rhodes had actually been to the imperial capital.

"I'm tired, go back and rest." After looking at Rod, Anderson also said in a deep voice, then looked at Alice, as if she wanted her to leave together. The change in Alice's eyes at Rhode made him uncomfortable.

"Well, it's getting late, dinner time is coming soon. Everyone prepares it and we'll celebrate today."

Thinking of the completion of the mission, I was in a good mood. Seeing that the sky was already dark, Alice said happily.

"Yeah, okay, have a good rest today, let's go out for a walk tomorrow and relax."

Kiro, who was on the other side, said in agreement, "What else can you do if you say that?" Rhode and Anderson agreed.

After some preparation, when Alice's inquiry came from outside the door, Rhode walked out of the room helplessly. Kiro and others had already arrived outside their door. The three of them led them to the hotel lobby quickly.

All of them were mercenaries. The hotel was very large and there were many people, so they were naturally noisy. After frowning, they finally found an empty seat. This reminded Rhodes of the scene when he first met several people in Liehuo City.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly. In just over half a year, I had grown to the point where I could be on par with them. The world changed very quickly. Rhodes believed that he would be better in the near future.
