Chapter 379 The Cursed Ducal

June eleventh, early morning.

After the ruins exploded, Rody's team camped in a nearby forest and rested overnight. Because of the death of his comrades-in-arms, the morale of the entire team was inevitably somewhat low.

Reality will never be an epic story in which the heroes of the bards surmount all obstacles. The god of death will always float above everyone's head. shrouded.

For Rody, this was also the first time he had a bad mood of "helplessness" towards the enemy-for this reason, he stayed up all night.

There are many reasons for insomnia, but Roddy will never toss and turn because of despair and powerlessness... This night, there is only one problem in his mind

What should I do if I encounter such an enemy again?

The real world is not a card game piled up with data, but from Roddy's experience, whether it is humans, orcs, undead, or dragons, no one has ever "crushed" anyone 100 times.

This point is enough to be seen from the definition of "critic strike" by "cracking soil": even if it is a dragon clan standing at the top of the pyramid of strength, it will be blinded, painful, and screamed when a dagger is stabbed in the eye. Is it true that I can't beat the enemy who has advanced to level 6?

The next goal of the team is to continue to search for spars, but as the team leader, Rody must also consider the importance of "remedial work after a sheep is lost": If he encounters the team of the "Holy Society" again, will he just run away or wait to die in embarrassment? what?

There is only one answer in Rody's mind: absolutely.

When the light of the morning sun shone into the camp, Rody, who was sitting the night before the campfire, suddenly clenched his fists, got up and let out a breath. He twisted his body a few times, and the "click" sound of joint friction was especially loud in the quiet camp. Suddenly—he stepped to his luggage and began to search for the scrolls and potions he had brought with him when he left Elsa Village.

Rody did a lot of things to defeat the strong with the weak. Before he was reborn, when he advanced to level 2, he successfully assassinated three enemies who had advanced to level 45 by himself, and became famous because of this—"Shadow Hunter" The title is not only given by the game, it is also what the players call Roddy when he reaches level 59 in the later stage.

After the initial frustration, Roddy immediately took dealing with the "holy meeting" as a feasible goal and started planning-he was not afraid of failure and setbacks, because Roddy never lost hope in his heart.

The soldiers gradually woke up and began to eat breakfast. Soderol, with two dark circles under his eyes, obviously didn't sleep well that night. He ran back and forth between the camps, not forgetting to encourage the morale of the soldiers in a low voice; Nata's Figures occasionally appeared in the camp, but they always disappeared quickly into the surrounding woods, as if they were on alert for all movements...

Akasha, who was sleeping in Rody's tent, was plagued by nightmares that night, and when she woke up, there were still tears in the corners of her eyes. The first thing she did after waking up was to rush out of the tent to confirm Rody's location—while watching When he was not far away, the shortness of breath of the little pastor gradually calmed down.

Then she realized that Rody was studying something in a low voice with Soderol, Nata and more than a dozen soldiers:

"Don't think about approaching, everyone raises their shields at any time, and alternately moves forward to block..."

"At this time, Nata pay attention..."

Halfway through the speech, Rody noticed Akasha's gaze, turned his head and continued: "You just woke up, I'm talking about some tactical arrangements, you come and demonstrate."

"Huh? Oh, okay..."

Akasha wiped her cheeks in a hurry, and when she raised her eyes, she found that Rody's gloom from last night had been swept away, and now there was an indescribable sense of calm instead.

This is fundamentally different from those young people who jump in a hurry when they are a little frustrated. That kind of calm momentum seems to calm their hearts invisibly.

"Akasha, cast all your blessing spells on me."

Amidst Luo Di's words, a group of people listened to his explanation for half an hour, and then carried out a "drill" all morning. At noon, Luo Di wiped the sweat from his forehead and announced that the entire team keep going.

"The combat team is following me, and the engineering team is following behind. We must hurry up."

Rody didn't want to bet all the money on the last ruin, so he asked five wood elf hunters to investigate the situation at the other five ruins with a low probability of spar discovery. , he still has some wiggle room.

However, it is already June 11th at this time, if you count the transportation journey from the last ruin to Elson City, the time left for Rody——

I'm afraid it has been less than fifteen days.

The traces left by the temporary camp have not been cleaned up, and the blasted ruins not far away seem to still have a little burnt smell. Time goes by... Two days later, the place has completely cooled down, and everything left in it, They also seemed to have disappeared in the high temperature of the explosion.

In early summer, the temperature in the forest gradually rises after the sun rises. In the afternoon, it is the hottest time of the day. At this time, a figure wearing an ice blue robe suddenly appeared in the center of the ruins.

The man who seemed to appear out of nowhere stood on the crystallization that was like sand and stone melting. His face is extremely handsome, his ears have sharp arcs like a high elf, his figure is slightly taller than ordinary people, slender and well-proportioned, his dark blue hair is surrounded by a silver crown, although there is no expression on his face, but it is incompatible with everything around Unspeakable arrogance.

The indifferent gaze slowly swept around, and the majesty that diffused scared away all the birds and beasts in the nearby forest.

He just stood there quietly, and a layer of hoarfrost gradually spread on the scorched ground around him, and even some stones "cracked" because they couldn't bear the severe temperature difference...

But he didn't care about it, just took a breath, closed his eyes and carefully discerned the "smell" he was looking for in the air-after a few seconds, the corners of his mouth finally raised a slight arc.

"finally found you."

June sixteenth.

Elson City finally ushered in a team that rushed all the way from the Silent Whispering Forest.

Under the order of the Duke of Angmar, the nobles of the territory had to fully cooperate with Rody's long-distance transportation this time - his prestige is there, no one dares to slack off, so the first batch of crystals were transported to Ayer After Sha Cun, the horses were immediately rotated one by one, and the relay was transported to Elson City without stopping.

Up to now, ninety-three charged crystals have been transported into the inner city.

However, Camilla, who is the center of the city's defense, did not immediately check the color or quality of those crystals. Instead, she went directly to Buffon who personally escorted these crystals, and asked aloud: "Rody hasn't returned ?”

"Ms. Camilla, Lord Roddy is still in the forest. The total amount of goods this time is—"

"Is he still in the forest? When was the last news report?"

Buffon didn't expect that Camilla would interrupt him without even asking about the number of crystals, but seeing her anxious face and worried expression, he paused and quickly replied: "The time for obtaining this batch of crystals should be It was around the 1st of June, Lord Rody's team was normal before the 1st, there were no losses or accidents, but what happened after that... We don't have any definite news."

He knew that the woman in front of him could be regarded as half the owner of the city, so he answered everything truthfully.

However, when she heard this, Camilla's face became even more gloomy. Her eyes swept across the team behind, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she suppressed her inner emotions and said in a low voice: "Thank you, everyone! Just unload the spar under the magic tower, and the food and accommodation have been arranged."

"Thank you, Ms. Camilla."

Buffon led the team to leave, walked a few steps, and saw a little girl running to Camilla's side with cheerful steps not far away, and then he heard the voice of the other party calling "Mom", and he was suddenly a little surprised —Camilla's appearance is too young, she doesn't look like a mother who gave birth to a child at all...

However, he didn't have a deeper understanding of Camilla's identity, so he said a few words with emotion, and after a few glances, he left with the team.

On the other side, Naifei looked at Camilla's haggard face and asked worriedly: "Mom...you look very bad."

Because she still doesn't know about Camilla's physical condition, Nai Fei only thought that her mother was worried about Rody, so she explained: "Brother Rody is very strong, it only took a few seconds to defeat those guys back then. "

Camilla forced a smile, gently stroking Nefei's red hair, and said in a low voice, "I've heard you say it many times, your brother Roddy is the best."

She said so, but she kept praying in her heart that the large-scale spar explosion had better have nothing to do with Rody... But logically, this kind of time would have something to do with the "charged spar explosion" , who else but Roddy?

Would he have...

"Mother?"

"Huh?" Camilla woke up suddenly, and seeing her daughter's worried face, she tried her best to suppress the panic in her heart, and changed the subject: "What book have you been reading these days? Tell me, you Don't be lazy."

"I'm watching the "Dialogue with the Dragon" left by the big sister," Nai Fei pointed to the sky, "So there is such a magical race in this world, who can change into human form and communicate with high elves."

"Dragon?" Camilla was not interested in this topic in her heart, and she was a little absent-minded at the moment, so she asked casually, "Then let me test your common sense... What is the name of the first high elf who killed the dragon?"

"Well…"

Naifei got stuck at the question, widened her eyes and thought for a long time before hesitatingly said: "Bo-Brax? No... yes, ka, right, it's Dukar, the cursed Dukar,"
