  Chapter 37 The Journey

Inside the carriage on the way, Rhodes took a few deep breaths and tried to Adjust your state to the best.

After a night's rest, Rhodes' mental state was restored.

Rhodes intends to take this opportunity to try deep meditation.

Rhodes doesn't know how long the trip will take for Business Group, but for himself, who is limited by his soul mission, no matter how much time the journey takes, he has no way to waste it, but to hurry up. All the time, improve your strength.

For the current Rhodes, the only thing that can improve his strength is deep meditation.

Rhodes has meditated many times before, but these meditations Rhodes conducted are shallow meditations, which are very different from deep meditations.

The most important purpose of shallow meditation is to increase the maximum magic power value and increase the speed of mana regeneration. Light meditation can be easily withdrawn in any situation without the risk of backlash and can even replace sleep to a certain extent, but deep meditation is quite different.

The first thing to do in deep meditation is to diffuse mana to establish a connection with the surrounding magical elements, and then continue to deepen this connection through your own spiritual exploration.

In the process of deep meditation, one's own spirit must be concentrated at all times, and constantly feel and explore the surrounding magic elements. During deep meditation, the connection between mage and magical elements is generally maintained by the uninterrupted supply of mana.

Once the deep meditation starts, with the deepening of the connection with the magical element, the whole person will fall into a state and lose the perception of the outside world. Unless the mana is exhausted, it cannot be easily lifted.

Once this state is forcibly broken by an external force, those who enter deep meditation will be subject to a backlash based on the remaining mana. The more mana remaining, the greater the backlash to the body, and the backlash of the big mage will even directly cause the body to collapse.

This is also why, when mage is doing deep meditation, he will choose an absolutely safe environment. In addition to reducing the impact of the external environment on himself, it is more to prevent this kind of backlash from happening.

Rhodes knows about this backlash of deep meditation, but Rhodes still chooses to do deep meditation here.

The reason why Rhodes did this was not only that he wanted to seize all the time to improve his strength, but the more important reason was that the experience accumulated in his previous mage career gave Rhodes a unique understanding of deep meditation.

If the Silver Seal Business Group chooses to attack himself while he is in a state of deep meditation, Rhodes can also use some special means to avoid the damage caused by backlash, although the mana may be gone, But it has no effect on the strength of Rhodes' melee combat.

Rhodes didn't tell the rest of the Business Group not to bother him. According to the information provided by the maid, there is a sorcerer with unknown strength in the Business Group.

Because of the connection with the surrounding magical elements, the mana fluctuations brought about by deep meditation are very easy to detect for any sorcerer.

This move by Rhodes, although not made explicit to the Business Group, is also a sign.

Rhodes believes, based on the Business Group's previous behavior, that he did not maliciously interrupt himself after realizing he had begun deep meditation. Instead, choose not to interfere with each other.

Business Group wanted to transport the Revenant Crystal to Dia with peace of mind, and would not deliberately provoke powerful enemies, and Rhodes never thought of robbing Business Group's Revenant Crystal.

Due to the lack of space in the car, Rhodes put his hands flat on his lap, and at the same time replaced the achievement he was wearing with a beginner, ready to start meditating.

…………

While Rhodes was meditating, the Silver Seal Business Group was walking along a large road, with jungles on both sides of the road. The trees are tall.

The road that the carriage travels has been specially chosen by the Business Group. Although the ground is full of dead branches and leaves, the road is spacious and there are no obstacles, which is conducive to the carriage.

The sky is bright, but the light on the road is still dim due to the occlusion of the surrounding jungle.

In the center of the Business Group, Uther is beside the largest carriage, directing the Business Group.

Different from yesterday's casual clothes, Uther was wearing a suit of silver white armor at this time, riding on a brown horse, with no weapons on his body, but a space ring on his hand.

At this time, Uther was listening to the report of the surrounding situation from his scouts.

This scout is already quite old. Compared with the other scouts who rely on their hands to eat, the scout in front of them is obviously unable to beat them. But this scout has a wealth of experience in investigating the surrounding situation. Going to this path in the City of Sorrows, this scout is all too familiar.

The scout saw from Uther's eyes that were looking in one direction one after another, that Uther's attention at this time was not on the situation he reported. Anyway, nothing abnormal happened, the scout quickly finished the situation, and then came back to the front of the convoy to investigate.

Uther is still looking in that direction next to the Business Group. In Uther's mind, the safety of the Business Group is clearly more important.

Those two undead mages of unknown origin are obviously what Uther cares about. Out of frustration yesterday, in order to avoid information leakage, they could only be allowed to become passengers, and Uther is now thinking about how to deal with it.

Although the best thieves had been kept under constant watch, Uther was still worried.

It wasn't until the scout left for a while that Uther took his eyes back and was about to give a few words to the scout under his command. Then he realized that the situation of his subordinates had already been reported, and he had already arrived at the front to start the investigation.

Uther was helpless and could only focus his attention on the carriage again.

Rhodes was able to sleep peacefully on the carriage last night, but for Silver Seal Business Group, the preparations have only just begun.

Different from Rhodes, because Rhodes entered the Silver Seal's station, and what he said, Uther had to change his plan, and packed everything overnight without caring about the rest. Anomalies may be found, and we will leave early this morning.

At this point, the Business Group was already on the road, and Uther began to feel a headache for the two undead mage in the team.

Uther understands that the undead mage understands the value brought by the undead crystal better than anyone else. If there may be danger on the road, the biggest hidden danger comes from the undead mage within the Business Group.

Although the two undead mages didn't make any demands on themselves, they just wanted to go to Dia, but Uther couldn't believe that the undead mages, who had always been known for their conspiracy, would not have any idea about the undead crystals.

Even though they were under his watch and kept silent, Uther couldn't feel at ease, thinking that they were planning something.

Because he didn't know the opponent's strength, Uther didn't dare to act rashly. The only thing he could do was to increase the monitoring of them.
