To the north of Erathia, far away from the mainland, Liujin Island welcomed a special visitor today.
Liujin Island is located on the endless sea outside the mainland, and its area is smaller than any large town in Erathia. However, on the island, there are gatherings of various forces and people from all religions and nine schools. Many desperate people also
They would choose to cross the sea to try their luck. The legend of getting rich overnight is still happening on this island. The headquarters of the Freelance Chamber of Commerce is located on this island. Every day, countless rare treasures are bought by merchants.
They were transported here and sent to all over the world with the help of space magic.
The unique environment surrounded by the ocean has also brought opportunities for the development of Liujin Island. The strongest defensive force on the island is the huge fleet armed to the teeth built by the merchants at the Iron Harbor. Even Ella
The royal fleet in West Asia cannot compare with it in terms of the strength invested. The fleet stationed at the Iron Port has fought off countless unscrupulous people who coveted the island's property.
However, no matter how powerful the fleet is, it still needs to rely on the ocean to exist. When the ocean shows its ruthless fury, no matter how powerful the fleet is, it will only be completely destroyed in the end.
Outside the iron port, Rhodes looked at the giant warships entrenched in the port from a distance, but he was thinking in his mind how many minutes it would take for him to use the power of the water element authority to completely destroy the fleet inside, leaving only a broken sail.
Broken oar.
Different from the usual appearance of wearing a pitch black cloak, Rhodes now can be said to have completely changed his appearance. He is wearing a suit of decent dark clothes, the tightly tied cuffs exude a somewhat capable atmosphere, and he has a thick beard on his chin and behind his back.
He was also carrying a large backpack and looked no different from the businessmen passing by. No one could connect him with the powerful Lord of the Undead in the continent.
"Follow me, and I'll take you to find the guild member who once glimpsed the earthen spirit ball in the black market."
Next to Rhodes, there is a woman with a cold temperament and indifferent words, as if she does not have any emotions. She covers her eyes with a black tie. Even if she knows Rhodes's identity as the Lord of the Undead, she will not be humble or arrogant.
task.
That woman was Marion, the manager under Sally, who was responsible for taking care of the daily affairs of the thieves leader. Due to the existence of the Shadow Realm, Sally could not come to Liujin Island with Rhodes, and no one could
The strange darkness seen through was undoubtedly telling everyone that the leader of the thieves had arrived, and they could only let the steward Marion accompany Rhodes.
As the manager who takes care of Sally's daily affairs, Marion has long been accustomed to being in the dark. She possesses a high-level eagle eye skill. Even if she cannot see things, she can rely on the power of her mind's eye to take in all situations.
.Rhodes also met her before at the Thieves Guild Headquarters.
"I know where to find him. You only need to tell me his name and your mission will be completed. There is no need to follow him all the way." Rhodes said with some helplessness. He originally planned to search for the existence of the earth spirit ball alone, but
Sally didn't think so, and simply asked Marion to accompany Rhodes and obey all instructions from Rhodes during the mission.
Facing Rhodes' persuasion, Marion, whose eyes were covered by black ties, just said calmly: "That was Lady Sally's order. She was worried that an accident might happen during the mission, so she asked me to help you. I will
Accomplish this mission."
Rhodes let out a slightly helpless sigh: "What on earth is she worried about? According to the calculations of the god-level wisdom technique, as long as I activate the power of the water element authority, I can destroy the fleet in the Iron Harbor within forty-two seconds.
Disintegrate the living forces on this island in one minute and thirty seconds. There are no demigods guarding here at all, so what is there to worry about?"
Listening to Rhodes' confident words, Marion just shook her head: "Look, this is what Lady Sally is worried about. With your strength, you can indeed disintegrate Liujin Island's defense force in a short time.
But those living creatures that are only circulated in the black market were transferred away by merchants using space magic as early as the first time you launched the attack. They ended up living in no corner of the continent, and you still couldn't achieve what you wanted."
Facing Marion's explanation, Rhodes just smiled faintly: "I'm just giving you an example. Of course I won't act rashly before I detect the location of the earth spirit ball. There is not much time left before the challenge of the earth elemental monarch.
Time, if you miss this opportunity, you may not know when you will be able to get the Earth Spirit Ball, so I am more cautious than you think."
"Really?" Marion curled her lips. She was skeptical about Rhode's statement. How could anyone start calculating how long it would take to dismantle the surrounding defense facilities as soon as they came to Liujin Island?
, what kind of caution is this?
Rhodes shrugged. He was telling the truth. Whether he believed it or not was up to Marion.
Under Sally's arrangement, Rhodes, who is now disguised, also has the identity of the Thieves Guild. Now he is apparently a person sent by the Thieves Guild to purchase precious treasures for the guild members. Cooperating with Rhodes's
As long as the demigod is not in front of him, his disguise will not fail.
Soon, under the leadership of Marion, Rhodes also came to the contact point of the thieves on the island. In an absolutely safe quiet room, Rhodes also met the man who had glimpsed the earth spirit ball on the black market.
of thieves.
The thief's clothes were shabby, his complexion was sallow, and he looked haggard. He covered his stomach with one hand. It looked like a long time had passed since the last time he filled his stomach. When he saw Rhodes coming, the thief's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know what was happening in front of him.
He knew the true identity of De, but also understood that the information about the Earth Spirit Ball should be taken seriously by the big shots in the Thieves Guild, so he hurriedly spoke:
"I've finally waited for you. I know why you came here. I am the thief who saw the earthen spirit ball on the black market. You can call me Dorag."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Rhodes nodded and then said: "Tell me everything you saw on the black market and the information about the seller of the earth spirit ball."
Dorag rolled his eyes and did not answer immediately. As a member of the Thieves Guild, how could he let go of the immediate interests: "Wait, I can tell you all the information, but I
What benefits can I get? Don't you know that earth spirit balls are a hot commodity, and I spent a lot of effort to get that information."
On the side, Marion's expression darkened, and she was about to scold Dorag and let him know who she was talking to. However, Rhodes waved his hand in advance, stopped her movement, and asked instead: "
What benefits do you want? Make a price for yourself."
Listening to Rhodes's inspiring words, Dorag shined brightly. The people in the freelance merchants were all scrambling for a small profit. Even if the error was a gold coin, it would take a long time to check, and even cause a dispute, so what?
When he met a generous being like Rhodes, he hurriedly said: "Since Flame left this world, I haven't had a full meal for a long time. I can hardly remember the last time I was full. I need a hundred kilograms of food.
As the price for revealing information."
Before Rhodes could reply, Marion on the side immediately noticed the irrationality, and her words were full of merciless anger: "We all know that when the flames die down, food becomes scarce.
According to the current market situation in the Freelance Chamber of Commerce, the price of one pound of grain is the same as the same weight of gold. Do you want a hundred pounds of gold as the price of earth spirit ball information? Why don't you go directly to the Freelance Chamber of Commerce?
Rob?"
Faced with Marion's scolding, the thief Dorag just shrugged: "I don't want to take advantage of the situation, but this is the way things are in today's world. What I want is food, not gold. I don't think you need to blame me. If you want to blame me, blame me."
The elemental monarch who took away all the flames. Since the flames were extinguished and the sun went silent, the fertile fields in the past are now only barren. Not only me, but almost everyone is hungry and can only remember the past in their minds.
The taste of a delicious meal. Not to mention that the merchants in the Chamber of Commerce took advantage of the chaos to raise prices. Now that the price of food is so high, they are also indispensable."
Listening to Dolag's words, Marion also fell into silence for a while. How could she not know that what the thief in front of her said was of course the truth. When the crops in the world no longer grow, food becomes extremely precious. A legend like her
Thieves, as well as professionals who can fight, can still eat meat all the time. When the meat becomes less and less in the future, the price of food will further increase.
The end of the world is approaching, and all kinds of terrifying signs have already appeared in front of everyone before the end of the war. With the shortage of food, the famine that breaks out in various parts of the continent is a precursor to the end of the world. Dorag thought.
The reason for exchanging information for more food is for future consideration.
Seeing that the two people in front of him were silent after hearing his quotation, Dorag was a little anxious for a moment and reluctantly changed his words: "I know that the environment is dangerous now. Even if you can't bring out the food, I can understand. This is good."
I only need seventy-five kilograms of grain, and I will tell you all the information about the earth spirit ball. No one knows what will happen after the end of the world. When I have these grains, I will find a safe place to hide.
Live through this doomsday disaster..."
After listening to Dolag's words, Rhodes, who had never spoken a word, finally said at this moment: "I see that you are not a hero, and you don't have the will of a hero in you."
Dorag was slightly stunned, but he continued following Rhodes' words: "You are right, I am indeed not a hero, I am just a senior thief, but what does it matter?"
"That's a big deal. Don't you know that the initiator of the Doomsday War, the Lord of Hell, Lucifer, specializes in killing zombies who are not heroes? Do you want to escape this Doomsday War? That's impossible
If you can do it, the demons will find you. You'd better eat more food before they find you, because after that, you will no longer be able to feel the taste of food." Rhodes said calmly.
.
From Rhode's gentle tone, what Dorag heard was a very tragic situation. He couldn't help but swallow secretly, as if he had already felt the fear of the end, but he insisted: "
You don't have to worry about those things, I will find a way to avoid those demons."
Rhodes shook his head, as if he didn't believe what he said: "What if I said that I could protect you in the Doomsday War and prevent you from ever being troubled by hunger?"
After hearing Rhode's promise, Dorag was completely stunned. The meaning of Rhode's promise was so beautiful that he simply couldn't believe the content. Not only that, he also had doubts about Rhode's identity.
I have some doubts about how anyone can make such a promise that sounds completely unrealistic when the end of the world is approaching.
However, thinking of the beauty in the promise, Dolag still decided to take a chance: "Can it really be like what you said, so that I never have to be troubled by hunger? You must know that there is no flame in this world. When everything is
When everything is eaten, people will fall into complete madness just for something to eat. Why can you do all that?"
This time, Rhodes did not utter any words, but directly answered Dorag's question with his actions.
As Rhodes slowly spread his palms in front of him, a blazing flame emerged from Rhodes' palms.
The light of the fire immediately dispelled the nearby darkness and illuminated every corner of the quiet room. Even Dorag was extremely excited when he saw the flame in Rhodes' palm.
Speechless, he stared at the blazing flame until the high temperature of the flame seemed to burn his eyes, causing him to shed tears of excitement, and then he looked away.
At this moment, Dorag felt an uncontrollable feeling in his heart. Who would have thought that the flame that the mages had in the past would now become a precious thing that is hard to find? There is something hidden in that flame.
It not only has boundless warmth, but also has a sense of hope that awakens people's hearts when the end is approaching.
"You... how did you do it?" After seeing the flame, Dorag's expression completely changed. He understood very well what the flame meant.
"If I said I was a fire elemental monarch, would you believe it?" Rhodes asked.
Dorag shook his head: "I heard from the businessmen that the Fire Elemental Lord is a fire elf burning forever in the depths of hell. I don't think you look like a fire elf."
At the end of the sentence, Dolag's eyes also shone a little: "Since you can ignite the flame, my previous asking price is obviously less. That's good. Now I need five hundred kilograms of grain to get the earth spirit ball."
The intelligence tells you, or you can protect me in the doomsday like you did before, so that I will never be troubled by hunger."
Rhodes also laughed: "It seems that you have made the right choice. Well, I will give you the ability to never be troubled by hunger...by transforming you into an undead."
