Zhutian: Douluo is not a sewer
Page 118
The moon was bright at this moment, and when Sau saw Tatsumi for the first time, she burst into tears.
"Tazmi!"
In an instant, the people on the Night Raid side turned their eyes over, and Tatsumi looked at the strange and ordinary woman in front of him with some confusion.
But the voice was so familiar, Tatsumi asked uncertainly.
"Sayu!?"
After seeing each other again as childhood sweethearts, after going through the cruel hell, Shayou cherished her past companions even more and wanted to respond, but then she remembered that she was in disguise and was doing something shameful.
But Tatsumi, who was filled with enthusiasm, instantly confirmed from Sau's attitude that this was his childhood sweetheart. However, such an attitude made it difficult for him not to be suspicious, so he spoke loudly.
"Sayou, are you being coerced? Don't worry! I'm here to save you!"
Rhodes on the side scratched his head in annoyance and interrupted directly.
"Stop it. We are not enemies. You just made such a big noise. Someone from the Empire will be coming soon. If you don't run away now, what's the point of fighting?"
Tatsumi, who was originally planning to take action, was stuck for a moment. He looked at his recognized elder brother Brand, and saw that he nodded. The two sides restored a strange peace and then hurried away.
While running away, Rhodes couldn't help but complain. The other members of the Night Raid were fine, but why did Mainni, a large light bulb, come out to join in the fun in the middle of the night?
As Rhode expected, less than ten minutes after both parties left, the huge manor was surrounded by a large number of imperial capital personnel.
After all, this is the aristocratic district, where troops are stationed all year round. If anything happens, it is also the first line of defense to protect these nobles.
However, in recent years, night raids have become more and more rampant, which has brought shame to these troops. Today, such an incident happened again. Looking at the manor where no one survived, the commander here cursed with embarrassment, but he had to accept the reality. Tomorrow he had to be prepared to face condemnation and accountability from a large number of nobles.
Workers, it’s so miserable~
On the other side, the fleeing people arrived at the outskirts of the imperial capital. This was a primeval forest filled with many dangerous species, and no one would come here to wander around.
Rhodes was speechless. As the capital of a country, is it really a good idea to build it in such an unstable area?
But it was obviously not Rhodes' turn to worry about these things. Now was the time for both parties to resolve the problem.
Along the way, Tatsumi was talking to Shayu, and Brand was quietly collecting information about Rhodes.
Unfortunately, it was useless. After all, Rhode had told them in advance that they must not reveal their identities. Otherwise, why would they have to go through so many disguises?
On the contrary, Rhode now thought from the other side: those guys from Night Raid knew that there would be a risk of their appearance being exposed, so why didn't they conceal their personal information?
You have to know that no matter how skilled an assassin is, it is impossible to guarantee a 100% success rate for his mission. If he fails in one day, he will lose everything. This is indeed not cautious enough.
Tatsumi looked a little depressed upon hearing the news of Iyeas' death, but the look he gave Rhodes was no longer filled with hostility as before.
Seeing that no one spoke, Rhodes said.
"Since both of us are fine, let's say goodbye now."
Rhodes was about to get up and leave with the two women, but Brand reached out to stop him.
"Mr. Black Crow, I can see that you have a heart full of justice. In that case, why don't you join us in this great cause?"
He didn't mind calling him Rhodes and just shook his head to refuse.
"I think you have misunderstood something. We hunt nobles because they deserve to die, and we are also looking for money. You should have heard on the road just now that this girl wants to make money to save her hometown."
Rhode pointed at Shayou who was standing beside him.
Brand also knew that what he said just now was a bit hypocritical, but masters are rare, especially masters like Rhodes who can defeat Chi Tong, so he continued to persuade.
"If you just want to make money, you might as well join us. Our internal salary is quite high."
Of course, Rhodes knew that as a subordinate of the Revolutionary Army, Yasuo had a very high salary, otherwise Tatsumi would not have the money to send back home.
but--
"Sorry, I prefer freedom to a fixed salary," Rhodes refused.
Chapter 182 Night Attack
Chapter 182 Night Raid - Part
"Ah—this—"
Brand was completely speechless. After all, Rod didn't look like he was short of money, and these remarks were really unexplainable.
Tatsumi glanced at Sau and seemed to be hesitant to speak. After all, people in their line of work almost risk their lives to make money, and they don't know when they might die. Although the salary was high, he didn't want Sau to encounter any unexpected events again.
"That's good." Tatsumi thought silently.
Compared to the night raids that required the execution of organizational tasks, although Rhodes was also engaged in assassination, he had choices and could specifically pick on the weak, so he would not encounter any danger with a high probability.
At this time, a pink figure appeared in the dense forest.
"What? I thought he was some great person, but he turned out to be a selfish bastard."
Rhodes looked up and saw that the arrogant voice was indeed Marin.
Although she was a very cute girl, her personality was not likable, and Rhodes really wanted to say that tsundere had become obsolete.
Pretending to ignore him, Rhodes said, "Since everything is fine, let's say goodbye now."
But just as Rhode was about to leave, Marin, who had a firm and proud personality, was not happy. What did he mean? Ignoring me! What a rude guy!
"Hey!" Marin wanted to say something, but suddenly she felt a flash in front of her eyes, and a pair of cold eyes were now staring directly at Marin.
Mina was already upset when Maine spoke rudely to Rod when he appeared.
This woman definitely had nothing good to say when she spoke again, which made Mina explode and put the dagger on the other person's neck.
In an instant, the two sides were on the verge of a fight!
There was also a flash of astonishment in Rhode's eyes. How could Mina, who was so well-behaved on weekdays, suddenly explode?
Almost at the same time, Rhodes raised his hand to stop Mina, and Brand also raised his hand to stop Chi Tong, who had regained some mobility.
Both sides were silent for a moment, and then Rhodes slowly spoke to Mina.
"Put the knife away Mina, we are not enemies."
"But!" Mina was a little unwilling to say that the woman in front of her had offended Rhodes and she should be taught a lesson.
But under Rhodes' serious gaze, Mina still put away the dagger obediently, allowing Maine, who had just faced death, to finally come to her senses. She quickly distanced herself and looked at the little loli in front of her with lingering fear.
Although she is also a little loli~
Seeing this, Chitong returned to normal again, looked at Rhodes with a little fear and said nothing more.
Rhodes thought about it and decided that the more combat power they had to deal with Esdeath in the future, the better, so he didn't mind selling them some information in advance.
And Mina's rash action was a good opportunity to make amends.
Rhode said, "Excuse me, this girl has suffered a lot of psychological trauma, so she is particularly nervous with me. It should be that your member's rude remarks just now have made her very dissatisfied, so she exploded. But after all, there is a problem on our side, so I apologize here first."
Rhodes bowed slightly when he said this.
Brand also knew that Marin's sharp tongue was indeed annoying. If they hadn't known each other for a long time, it would be very rude to say that to a stranger. He waved his hand and said, "No, no, it's our fault."
Marin opened her mouth, but when she thought of the undisguised murderous intent and the fear of facing death, she quickly shut it up again.
In fact, Rhodes didn't take the sharp-tongued Maine seriously at all, because he knew that this was Maine's protective color.
Maine, who was born in a foreign ethnic group, experienced a lot of hardships in her childhood. The poorer and more remote the place, the greater the hostility towards people like her. In addition to her strong strength, Maine could not show any weakness to those who were hostile to her, so over time she developed the habit of being sarcastic.
But in the end, Marne survived, and Rod didn't want to interfere too much.
So he continued to say to Brand, "No matter what, we were the first to attack. It is reasonable for me to apologize first and then give you some compensation."
Brand was about to refuse, but Rod's next words froze him.
"After our conversation just now, I know that you have no desire for money, so I will give you some information about the Imperial General Esdeath."
Even Brand didn't want to miss out on any information about Esdeath since he was doing a life-threatening business that would eventually lead to him facing off against a big boss named Esdeath. So he chose to remain silent and accepted Rhodes' information.
Rhodes thought for a moment, organized his words and spoke.
“I’m sure you all already know about the Ice Imperial Tool that Esdeath possesses, Demon God Appearance: Devil’s Essence. This is a special Imperial Tool made from the blood of a super dangerous species that is said to live in the Far North. Its main ability is to generate ice.
According to the information sent by the soldiers, Esdeath's ability can instantly freeze a 100-meter-long river, forming a land that can be walked on by the army. You should know this information."
Rhode was not sure whether the Revolutionary Army knew about this, but Najeshita must have known it, after all, she had followed Esdeath when she was young.
I don't know whether he told the other people in the night raid, but it is very likely that he didn't tell them, otherwise he wouldn't let Leone get close to Esdeath later.
But to Rhodes's surprise, Brand nodded.
Come to think of it, this guy was also a general of the empire before he joined the night raid, so as a colleague, it is reasonable for him to know him well.
But Rhodes glanced at Maine and Tatsumi beside them. They were so shocked that they couldn't even control their jaws. They stood there with their mouths wide open, looking very surprised.
But this is also normal. After all, although the conventional force of this world is a bit abnormal, freezing a hundred-meter-long river in an instant is still a bit too scary.
Rhodes even wondered, if they knew about this terrible battle situation in advance, would the people who attacked at night really dare to go up and fight Esdeath head-on?
After all, according to Najensita's estimation in the original work, at least an army of 5 and more than ten imperial weapon users would be needed to go to war with Esdeath, but the actual situation is even more exaggerated than this data. After all, the influence of Esdeath's later abilities almost expanded to the entire empire.
However, even without this record, the imperial weapon currently possessed by Esdeath is considered the strongest imperial weapon.
However, in Rhodes' opinion, rather than saying that the imperial weapon is strong, it is better to say that Esdeath herself is ridiculously strong.
After all, the original setting of Esdeath's imperial weapon was that one could have the ability to control ice as long as one drank a cup of it. But even so, ordinary strong people would be driven crazy by the violent mental energy contained in it, while Esdeath simply swallowed all the blood of the ice imperial weapon in one gulp.
Esdeath, who was supposed to die according to the minister's prediction, endured it horribly and now has almost become the super dangerous species in the legend.
This super dangerous species is so strong, how strong must the empire be to be able to hunt down such a super dangerous species! ?
It's simply a paradox of strength.
Rhodes said after sorting out the messy thoughts in his mind.
"Although I don't know much, I know that Esdeath has a very terrifying ability. If you know this ability in advance, you should be able to take precautions and not be killed instantly by her."
Hearing Rhodes speak so seriously, Brand listened more attentively, fearing that he would miss a word.
Rhodes did not keep anyone in suspense and directly revealed Esdeath's ultimate move.
“As far as I know, Esdeath has developed her imperial weapon to the limit, and can forcibly reduce the temperature of a certain range of space to absolute zero in a short period of time.
During this time, only Esdeath can move in the frozen space, and the others will be in a state similar to time standing still, at her mercy."
After hearing the news, Brand instinctively didn't believe it and shook his head.
"impossible."
After all, freezing time at absolute zero sounds too fantastic. Even the knowledgeable Brand couldn't believe that Esdeath could do such an outrageous thing.
Rhodes shrugged. After all, the analysis results obtained in this era were from the technological world. Although the end of technology was theology, Rhodes was too lazy to explain.
"That's all I can say. Whether you believe it or not is up to you to organize yourselves. But listen to my advice. Before you can crack this trick, it's better for you to stay away from this scary woman."
With that, Rhodes left with Mina and Shayou.
As for the super adaptation that could break Esdeath due to the evil spirit, Mokobot Morode was not going to tell anyone about it.
On the one hand, the more he did, the more mistakes he made. Rhodes had no way to explain the source of his intelligence. It would not be a good thing if he was targeted by a night raid because of this.
On the other hand, the characteristic of the holder of the evil spirit is that he is a passionate person. He will definitely intervene in the battle with Esdeath. Once Esdeath uses this trick, the passionate Tatsumi or Brand will be able to adapt to the situation at that time with his own passion. Instead of telling them in advance, it is better to let them understand it themselves when the time comes.
As for why Rod said that Brand might also be alive, after all, there is a time traveler like him, and we should understand the butterfly effect.
Rhodes walked and stopped along the way, changing directions several times. After all, after the brief time they had just spent together, he felt that those who had attacked him at night would not let him go so easily.
After running for a long time, Mina asked Rhodes anxiously.
"Mr. Rhodes, did my impulsiveness just now cause you any trouble?"
"Yeah." Rhodes did not deny that children are the ones who should be shaped into their values. They should not be wishy-washy and should be made to know right from wrong so that they can grow up to be responsible people.
After receiving Rhode's affirmative answer, Mina lowered her head slightly like a wounded little animal.
But Rhodes quickly stroked her head with one hand and spoke softly.
"It's just a little trouble, and you see, aren't we all fine?"
Although these words were not comforting, they made Mina feel less guilty than she did at the beginning.
Then Rhode said to Mina seriously, "Although your impulsiveness this time didn't cause any big trouble, Mina, you must remember that people always have to pay the price for their willfulness, so you must think twice before doing anything in the future. Don't act rashly before others cause substantial harm or show obvious ill intentions."
Mina listened carefully, then nodded seriously.
"Okay Mr. Rhodes, I will never make the same mistake again."
Seeing this, Rhodes nodded with satisfaction. Blindly pampering is definitely wrong. If you want to cultivate a person with a sound mind, you must talk about reason and present facts.
