Outside the Hunter Tavern, behind a bald old man and beside a group of strong men, stood Mavis dressed as a hunter.
Her silver hair and silver eyes sparkled under the firelight, which was particularly conspicuous. The green hunter's coat set off her white and beautiful face, like a white flower blooming among the green leaves.
Rhodes' ignorance made the bald old man even more angry.
He jumped over with a cry and patted his shoulder with his big hand like lightning.
But Rhodes stepped aside and frowned: "Old man, what are you doing?"
Jia Han laughed angrily: "Good boy, what do you think I'm going to do? You fight and cause trouble here and destroy my pub. What do you think I'm going to do?"
Rhode curled his lips and said, "They hit me first."
Jahan's yellow eyes stared at him: "You still think you're right? You're very good at fighting, right? Huh, today I'm going to let you see what it means to be truly able to fight!"
A flash of inspiration flashed in my hand, and I patted his shoulder again.
Rhodes twisted his waist and shoulder, pushed his elbow with his backhand, twisted his right arm, and said with a smile: "What have you seen?"
Jia Han said angrily: "Let go, do you know who I am?"
A'duo hurriedly ran over from behind and shouted: "Don't hit, Grandpa Jahan, he is helping me. It is these drunkards who are making trouble, so don't hit him."
Jia Han said angrily: "Aduo! Are you blind?"
Rhodes let go of his hand and said with a smile: "Grandpa Bald, what happened is just like what A'duo said, it was these people who made the move first. We only used physical combat methods and it was just a friendly discussion. As for
They have promised to pay for the damage to the tavern according to the price."
Jia Han sneered and said: "You have finished speaking. It seems that we were wrong today."
He waved his hand, and a group of male hunters gathered behind him.
"Boy, are you good at fighting? Huh, let me show you today what it means to have strength in numbers."
At this time, a hunter suddenly said softly: "No, Captain, he seems to be that Rhodes, the one who was commended by the king."
"Yes, that's him. His Excellency Dalin thinks highly of him. He even went to the Holy Fire Sacrifice to meet with the king."
"Why don't you forget it...if you beat him, Lord Dalin might be angry."
The Hunter Regiment is completely under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Military War Department. The first defense chief, Chang Lin, is simply their ancestor in their eyes. The director of the General Logistics Department is their grandfather, the other defense chiefs are their father, and all the army commanders and commanders are their eldest brothers.
The hunter group has always been the youngest.
After Rhodes made two great achievements, he has become a popular figure in the eyes of the first defense officer, Da Lin. Many people know this.
But Jahan did not show a smile. His expression suddenly became cold and slightly hostile.
"Boy, I don't care who you are, as long as I, Jahan, am still the leader of the hunter group, don't try to bully others."
Rhodes laughed and said: "Captain, if you don't believe me, forget it, A'duo, you don't believe it either?"
Jahan sneered: "I only believe what I see with my eyes. Are you good at fighting? If you have the ability, go to the battlefield and hunt monsters! I am discussing with these old hunters about hunting the magic dragon. You guys
The new hunters are drinking and making trouble! It’s true that each generation is worse than the last. If Edmundo, the first-generation hunter, had survived until now, he would have been angry to death."
Rhode's eyes lit up: "Are you planning to hunt the dragon?"
Jahan looked at him contemptuously: "Headquarters-level elite mission, extremely dangerous, hunting down the corrupted dragon at the bottom of the sewers of the royal city, do you dare to come?"
"Okay!"
Rhodes agreed immediately and held his hand.
"To express my apology, I decided to hunt the dragon with you."
Jahan's expression froze, and his yellow-orange eyes stared like bells.
——
After some entanglement, Rhodes revealed his past deeds one by one, and Jahan reluctantly agreed to join the team and briefly explained the reason for the mission to him.
The sewers in the royal city are extremely deep, and the middle and lower levels are restricted areas. There are terrifying monsters that have existed for unknown years.
The royal city's consistent strategy is to clean up slowly and in a controlled manner, giving priority to those that have a direct impact on the royal city.
Their mission goal this time is to hunt down the corrupted dragon entrenched in the bottom area of the sewer.
It is an injured ancient dragon. It does not know why it appeared deep in the sewers of the royal city. It has been corroded by the black mist over the long years. The wound has further festered and deformed, and its ribs have grown into bloody mouths, emitting extremely strong energy.
Twisted and corrupt atmosphere.
It is not completely silent. Every once in a while, it will look for food in the depths of the sewers and swallow the filth that has settled at the bottom. Every movement will trigger changes in the monsters deep in the sewers, which will then affect the upper levels of the sewers.
So as soon as the Kuroshio ended, the Supreme Military War Department was considering hunting it.
However, there are many similar things, so the Military War Department assigned this task to the Hunter Group.
Due to the extreme danger, it is not an open hunter mission, but an elite mission belonging to the hunter headquarters.
Jahan summoned the strongest hunters in the hunter group to discuss countermeasures.
This is not a task that can be accomplished by accumulating numbers. They must hunt down the dragon with the smallest noise possible to avoid disturbing other silent powerful monsters and only increasing the pressure on the defense of the royal city.
Jahan finally agreed to Rhodes joining the team because he had rich sewer experience.
No one expected that the two sewer kings in the north and south, the black bastard Rhodes and the hunter Dafa, who were famous throughout the royal city, turned out to be the same person.
In this way, he alone completed the sewer work of about 2,000 people.
And two thousand people is the number of people in an army.
Jia Han could not help but admire: "In the sewer, you are an army."
Athos, the captain of this operation and the current number one hunter in the hunter group, also sighed: "Brother Rhodes, why don't you be responsible for guarding our sewers."
Hey, can you pay attention to my glorious record in the third theater?
Don’t you care about the glorious moment when my teammates and I destroyed the abyss rift together?
Rhodes was very unhappy and determined to do even more earth-shattering things in the future to cover up the dark history of the sewer.
After he joined, the hunting team set off quickly.
The first hunter, Athos, is the strong leader, Rhodes is the rear scout, Mephis is the mid-position controller, and the other four are all front-line vanguards.
Rhodes skillfully led them into the sewer, through the upper level, and to the entrance of the middle and lower levels.
The next road will be led by Athos.
Rhodes finally had time to talk to Mavis.
From the first moment he saw him, Mavis had no expression at all, and his cold eyes were like looking at a stranger.
"Don't be so cold. After all, you agreed to go on a date with me. Why don't we meet in advance and do some warm-up exercises?"
Mavis did not answer, but Athos spoke.
"Brother Rhodes, stay away from her and don't talk to her."
Another hunter also said: "Despite her appearance, this woman is despicable and vicious. You will be in trouble if you get too close to her."
Rhodes frowned and said, "Isn't it too much for you to say that? She is still our companion after all. Even if she has received an unknown curse, it is not her fault."
A tall hunter said: "Brother Rhodes, you don't understand the situation yet. Anyway, don't get close to her. She is not a human being, just a tool."
Rhodes said angrily: "What do you mean? Even if she is a taboo, she is still flesh and blood and has feelings. How can she treat her teammates as tools?"
Athos returned from the front and wrapped his strong arms around Rhodes, separating him from Mavis.
"Everything under the Silver Oath is a tool."
"Don't be fooled by her appearance, she is not human."
A hunter smiled and said: "Brother Rhodes is still young, so he may have never seen a woman."
"This mission is completed. I invite you to Hongfang Street. There are many beautiful women. They are much more fun than this cold bitch. You will know after I try it once, little brother."
The hunters spoke without any hesitation, but Mavis remained silent and walked at the end in silence.
Rhodes frowned, feeling that things were not as simple as he thought.
He secretly made up his mind to ask her carefully after the mission.
The middle level of the sewer is very complex, with a huge height difference. Most areas do not have sewer functions, but rather resemble some kind of underground city.
As they walked deeper and deeper, the darkness became thicker and thicker, the range of light was gradually compressed, and black mist seeped out from nowhere, surrounding them.
When they jumped into a deep pit again, the thick black fog extinguished the lantern.
Everyone's bodies lit up with red light, and the red tear stones began to take effect.
"We're at the bottom."
Athos said softly.
"From now on, don't use psychic powers easily. Follow me and don't fall behind. I don't want to see you on the pension list."
The hunter team followed him into the depths of darkness.
The bottom layer of the sewer has completely lost all traces of man-made artifacts. There are rugged gravels everywhere. The filth that seeped down from the upper level has turned into unknown viscous masses after years of precipitation. A cold and dark atmosphere blows towards your face.<
/p>
The space at the bottom was far larger than imagined, reminding Rhodes of an abyss rift.
Suddenly, Athos stopped and said softly: "Right in front, I heard its breathing."
Everyone stopped and listened to what he continued.
"The corrupted dragon is about two hundred yards in size. It retains the ancient dragon's super strength and high spiritual energy, and it also has amazing corruption. Don't be hit by any part of its body."
"When the battle begins, I will confront the dragon from the front, and the four of you will attack from the side. Be careful not to stand directly behind it at any time."
"Rhodes, observe the dragon's movements at any time and provide a certain degree of long-range firepower."
"Please be careful to restrict the movement of the dragon."
"Let's go."
Athos rushed forward first, lightning rose on him, and a long spike appeared on his right hand.
Everyone followed him and jumped off a cliff that was at least two hundred yards high.
The next moment, Rhodes saw a huge spirit body, its super powerful soul waveform was covered with a dark fog.
Athos shouted loudly, and the lightning on the spikes flashed, forming a thunder knife hundreds of yards long, stabbing the spirit body heavily.
