Melodious bells were heard from all over the royal city. These were the big bells that churches in various places rang to celebrate the opening of the holy fire.
At this moment, this ancient city finally showed its heaviness.
Amidst the continuous ringing of bells, Rhodes landed at the gate of Jinworth College. The college was crowded with people, and students were everywhere cheering and running wildly. Everyone seemed to be celebrating a grand celebration.
The priest put down Rhodes and said: "The king has told you that if you encounter some unsolvable problems, you can come to us in the king's area."
Rhodes said happily: "Will you help me? Then lend me one hundred thousand silver cords first..."
Before he finished speaking, the two priests had already flown away.
Well, borrowing money is really not possible.
Rhodes touched his nose and it seemed that he could only find a way to make money on his own.
This trip to Jianguan almost wiped out all his inventory, and only six thousand of the huge reward was left.
Personal salary and distribution of materials have all been banned. He must get money, otherwise his combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
We also need to buy twenty rubies as soon as possible to obtain a way to communicate with Gregor's soul, so that we can dig out more clues from him and clean out all the human pests.
In addition, there are many, many things, such as obtaining the "Flower of Humanity" to make the Resurrection Stone, such as mastering the correct way to use stars, such as finding language experts to learn ancient languages, such as hunting to satisfy [Justice Enforcement]
Monster souls that are in demand, such as systematically mastering combat skills, making up for one's own shortcomings, and hunting doomsday cultists, etc.
While Rhodes was thinking about it, he walked towards the gate of the academy and suddenly saw a large group of familiar figures standing at the gate. Raistlin, Caramon, Annabeth, Little Fatty and all the comrades who had fought together at Sword Pass appeared here. They seemed to have been waiting for a long time. When they saw Rhodes, they all burst into ecstatic cheers and ran towards him.
"Rod, are you okay?"
"Did you really kill that big bastard?"
"How do you kill me? I want to hear you say it again!"
"That guy obviously deserved his death, so why do you still need to be convicted?"
During their chatter, Rhodes learned that since they learned that he had killed Gregor in court, they had been standing outside the trial court and constantly complaining. Almost all the survivors of Sword Pass had gathered, and even
There was a conflict with the defenders of the Inquisition.
Fortunately, the news of his acquittal spread quickly, and everyone decided to come to greet him.
The Jianguan Incident brought great psychological trauma to everyone. Countless brothers and comrades died tragically, but the culprit might escape punishment. Many people were so angry that they couldn't even eat.
When they heard that Rhodes killed Gregor in court, almost no one dared to believe it. This was too unbelievable. How could he kill someone in the hall of the Inquisition? Gregor was so strong, why was he killed by Rhodes in one blow?
Die?
It was only now, after hearing the true situation from Rhodes' mouth, that they truly believed it.
At that moment, some were wailing, some were laughing wildly, and even more were crying and laughing. Even the guards could not help but come out to drive away the madmen blocking the gate.
No one paid attention to him, everyone was venting their emotions. The shadow brought by the Giant Justice to them was too great. No one could accept that after finally escaping from danger, he was attacked by traitors. The scene when he massacred his compatriots was...
Like a lingering nightmare.
It wasn't until I heard about his death that this nightmare showed signs of dissipating.
While celebrating, Rhodes looked at the words that appeared in his eyes in disbelief.
……
The joy of countless people 3292
Humanity 329
Flower of Humanity 2
……
Humanity's hope rises.
Divinity 1
——
The golden and red words complement each other, stimulating Rhode's eyes.
He was just thinking about how to obtain the "Flower of Humanity", the core material of a series of important items, but he didn't expect to get it now.
Or two!
What surprised Rhodes even more was the golden text below——
He actually gained divinity.
The greatest function of divinity is to make [Soul Firewood], and it can also protect him in times of invasion crisis.
This was something he originally thought was impossible to do in the near future, because the Book of Knowledge told him that the way to obtain divinity was: [Increase the possibility of inheriting the fire of civilization and drag the civilization sliding into the dark abyss.] None of the items in the description are far away from him, but now he has obtained it. Although it is only 1 point, it also illustrates a possibility - even if it is only a slight improvement, it is possible to obtain divinity.
Rhodes' heart was filled with excitement.
I didn't expect that killing Gregor would have such benefits. This guy is indeed a super cancer for mankind.
This is the right choice.
Haha, good kill!
I can kill more!
——
During this brief gathering with his comrades, what Rhodes talked about most was the moment when he killed Gregor.
Whenever he said that his hand had severed the thread of Gregor's soul, the eyes of the Sword Pass warriors were all bright, as if they had witnessed this scene with their own eyes.
And when he recounted in detail the public execution of Gregor, and the shocked expressions and incoherent words of the audience in the trial seat, roaring laughter broke out in the crowd.
At this time, there is no sadness anymore, only endless joy.
The surge of humanity almost overwhelmed Rhodes' sight, and if the people from the royal city hadn't come to stop them, Rhodes could even talk until dark, and they were willing to hear it.
Such a soul-stirring story that clears away the gloom, even if you listen to it a hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand times, you will never get tired of it.
However, the Royal City does not intend to make Gregor's affairs public for the time being. Except for limited insiders, it will not be allowed to be spread. Therefore, when it was discovered that Rhodes was almost giving a public speech on the road, priests in the King's District immediately came to stop him.
.
After being forced to write a guarantee not to spread the word, the priest once again returned to the King's District under Rhodes' money-borrowing offensive.
The comrades also returned to their homes with smiles and joy. After experiencing this cruel war, they all had a longer vacation and could rest in the royal city for a while.
Although the speech was stopped midway, Rhodes was convinced that he would not lack humanity for a long time in the future - although he had never lacked much of it, he was less forced to brush up on humanity at unnecessary moments.
Bad experience.
The students returned to the secret branch base in Jinworth with him.
Annabei told them that this time the Jianguan reinforcement mission suffered heavy losses. All three teachers and instructors were killed, and six students were killed. Although this was due to uncontrollable accidents, the heads of the secret branch, Dean Vera and Heipao Ka,
Leer still decided to learn his lesson and seize the time to conduct high-intensity special training for the students.
After saying these words, she left, taking everyone with her, leaving only Raistlin and Egger looking at him with twinkling eyes.
"Rhode, do you remember what we reported about Iron Mask Manolo Bana?"
Rhodes nodded.
"The guy was subject to a limited restraining order, but recently it seemed like he might be acquitted."
Rhodes frowned: "What do you want to do?"
Egg looked up at Rhodes' chin and showed a smile that was three parts cold, three parts indifferent and four parts evil:
"I used white smoke to peek and found that he was involved with many justices, including Gregor. These guys must be in the same group. Rhodes, do you want to take them down in one fell swoop?"
