Chapter 89 The Second Invasion(1/2)
Chapter 90 The Second Invasion
When Rhodes woke up again, the clock had reached its eleventh hour.
There is one hour left, which is evening time when the sun goes down.
The last invasion occurred exactly at this time.
I checked my status and found that I was full of energy and had sufficient spiritual energy.
I'm just a little hungry.
Well, even if I die, I still have to be a dead ghost.
Rhodes left the room and walked downstairs, and the crowded tavern suddenly burst into cheers.
"Rhode!"
"Rhode!"
"Our Rod!"
"Black loser Rhodes!"
The residents of the Iron Cross neighborhood are very hospitable (really), and have a great affection for every soldier who protects them.
According to statistics from the association, on average only one fire bearer will be born for every three hundred people. For those who do not have the power of fire, every fire bearer is a legend worth yearning for.
They knocked on the table neatly, and everyone raised their glasses to him.
When he passed by, they tried their best to touch his hand or anywhere on his body.
This is a custom here. Touching the warriors guarding them will bring them good luck and enable them to receive timely rescue when monsters invade.
And every time a girl comes up, they will cheer even more sensationally.
Rhodes will take the initiative to hug them——
This is the experience he gained during this period. In the eyes of civilian girls, fire-wielders are superior and they are not qualified to be favored by him. If Rhodes avoids or keeps a distance, it will be considered contempt and contempt. This will
Hurt them.
The best way is to give them a warm hug.
If you want to spend the night with them, you can do something more intimate. If they respond, it means they agree.
Generally speaking, don't show love to multiple people, but if it's you, multiple people are okay - when the tavern proprietress said the last words, she looked at him with her peach-like eyes, just missing the word "I"
It's inserted inside.
Of course, Rhodes was not in the mood, and he might consider it later, so he just shook her white and tender little hand and gave her a polite hug.
Just like now.
The landlady sighed and skillfully prepared his favorite beef stew with creamy potatoes.
A man knocked on the table and shouted: "Sasha! Why don't I even have half of his beef on this plate?"
The landlady rolled her eyes at him angrily, placed a plate full of beef in front of Rhodes, and walked away with her waist twisted in a charming manner.
There were a lot of whistles and shouts in the tavern. This was a rare time for them to relax - when the weather is bad, the Municipal Affairs Bureau will strictly restrict residents' outdoor activities.
Except for going to the Seamans factory to work, they can only stay at home most of the time, and they only have such an opportunity every few days.
And Rhodes would spend a certain amount of time almost every day to come to the pub and tell some unheard jokes to everyone, bringing joy to their ordinary days.
This is also the time that residents here look forward to the most, being able to get up close and personal with their legendary stars.
But just when everyone was looking forward to it, the steward of the Iron Cross Block burst in and shouted: "Everyone goes home immediately! Curfew will be imposed after a quarter of an hour. Violators will be fined fifty silver cords and ten days of confinement!"
Fifty silver cables was equivalent to a week's salary. Everyone was very disappointed, so they had no choice but to finish the wine and the food on the plate with curses, and left at the urging of the steward.
Rhodes was soon the only one left in the crowded tavern.
The curfew only applies to ordinary people, and those who hold fire are handled by specialized agencies, and Rhodes is equivalent to a formal combatant. Unless there is a special ban, he can travel unimpeded in the Lower City.
The stewards greeted politely: "Mr. Rhodes, please use it slowly. It is a foggy day during this period. Please be careful when performing sewer cleaning tasks. We will leave first. Goodbye."
Rhodes nodded, quickly finished the beef stew with potatoes without visible potatoes, drank the mushroom wine handed to him by the landlady in one go, and said:
"Thank you, Miss Shasha. You are really beautiful today, and your craftsmanship is as good as ever. I am very happy to eat the food you made. I hope there will be another chance next time. I have to go back and rest quickly. There are more important things to do in the evening.
I hope you won’t let anyone disturb me.”
He took a step forward, gently hugged the happy, sad and reluctant landlady, and quickly went upstairs.
——
After returning to the dreamland, Rhodes felt better than ever. He prepared everything and quietly waited for the invasion.
The moment the thickest pointer crosses eve, the long-awaited invasion finally arrives.
At this moment, the entire dreamland changed color, the rolling gray fog in the distance was gradually blackened, and the dark red sky appeared overhead at some point.
The diffuse red light gradually enveloped the dream, and it flickered slightly, as if the world outside the dream was a heart, and the blood submerged it. The flashing red light was the pulsation of the heart. Rhodes seemed to feel a strange and incomprehensible existence.
Peeping at him from outside the dream.
Rhode's heart tightened for a moment, his breathing froze, and he became highly nervous.
He held the spirit gun "Raven" tightly in one hand, which was filled with spirit-sealing bullets.
One hand holds the soul ashes and the whistle tightly, and the gray bag filled with thunder stones and the "Guardian of Darkness" are hung on his waist.
The Eye of the Soul had been activated for a long time, but no changes were found. There was no difference between the dream and what was seen with the naked eye, until a pure red shadow penetrated from the edge of the dream.
Yes, the dream has an edge, it is a red film, like the inner wall of a blood vessel.
The red shadow is like blood seeping from the inner wall of blood vessels.
The shadow quickly solidified, as if it was filled with blood that glowed dark red. It was a tall human figure. The face and details could not be seen clearly in the diffuse red light. All we could see was a huge long hook on his back.
p>
His psychic energy was a rare dark red, completely covering up the color and waveform of his soul.
Several lines of text appeared in the eyes of the soul.
Hunting the Red Spirit Tug
Category: Nightmare
Threat:Death
Soul characteristics: Hunting
Danger: True vision, see through all disguises and illusions.
——
The moment it appeared, Rhodes threw the ashes of his soul out.
The lump of matter exuding a faint light exploded in mid-air, fine dust flew all over the sky, and a huge spirit-like deformed demon spider appeared.
Dots of black thread tumbled inside the spirit body of the deformed demon spider. Its compound eyes emitted a frightening red light. The moment it landed, it rushed towards the nearest hunting red spirit.
Rhodes raised his gun at the same time. In just one second, it was fully charged, and the spirit-sealing bullets shot out quickly, hitting the red spirit.
Bang!
The bullet was smashed into powder, but Hong Ling was unscathed, and the operation of his psychic energy did not stop for even half a second.
This shot seemed to wake it up.
Hong Ling took off the long hook on his back, and struck the deformed spider that pounced with lightning speed.
A red light flashed on the long hook, and the aberrant spider immediately fell into pieces.
In less than a second, an adult monster was killed.
At this time, Rhodes had not even fully charged the second spiritual gun.
The red spirit rushed towards him, pulling out a long red shadow in the air at extremely high speed.
Rhodes knew something was wrong, so he only had time to crush the "Guardian of Darkness" before a long hook penetrated his chest.
His vision went dark, and severe pain penetrated his soul. Rhodes screamed and stood up from the bed, his head hurting so much that it felt like it was about to split.
He was knocked back to the material world again!
But fortunately, Rhodes remembered his last experience, put the pain-relieving poisonous pansy juice in his mouth, and bit it hard, and the bitter and sour taste quickly spread in his mouth.
The severe pain subsided in the sour taste, and his soul recovered from the sour taste. Rhodes pressed his hands on the table and gasped for air.
It took me a while to regain my thinking.
How could this happen?
Rhodes couldn't believe that he was so well prepared this time, and was exactly the same as last time, and was instantly killed when they met.
The only difference is that before he died, he crushed the "Guardian of Darkness", which can protect the obelisk from harm.
Otherwise, the obelisk, which still has cracks to this day, is likely to be destroyed.
What to do?
To be continued...
