Chapter 35: The Silver Seal III
After Rod finished his last sentence, for a while, the two fell silent at the same time.
Rhodes still had that calm face, and the vampire didn't make any moves the rest of the time except for a second look when Rhodes took out the Revenant Crystal.
Yusser's face shifted, showing that he was not at peace inside.
Inside the tent, as the silence lengthened, the momentum became solemn. Rod even felt a flash of murderous intent.
At this time, Yusher's momentum was fully revealed, and it was in this not spacious tent. In Rod's feelings, at this time, the momentum of Yuser standing opposite him was like what a real warrior should have.
The vampire beside Rhodes also felt the majesty emanating from Uther's body, and stepped forward from behind Rod's seat, staring at Uther's movements, ready to strike at any moment.
Correspondingly, Rod himself was also prepared, although he was still sitting in the chair, Rode's consciousness had locked on the blade in the space ring, and at the same time, the center of gravity of his body moved forward. If Yuser was about to strike, Rhodes could take out the blade in an instant and stab it forward.
Even though he was ready for battle, Rhodes's heart was still calm.
Although Uther had the strength of a veteran warrior, he wore only light cloth clothes and did not wear the armor of a warrior in battle, and Rhodes was not afraid.
Unlike a swordsman like Rhodes, who relies purely on swordsmanship, a good set of equipment is indispensable for a warrior to show his true strength.
If the swordsman relies on the sharpness of the sword move and the timing of the sword, then the warrior relies on the conversion of attack and defense in battle.
In order to pursue damage and dodge agility, the swordsman will only wear leather armor at most, and once he changes to heavy iron armor, the swordsman's own strength will be greatly reduced.
Unlike swordsmen, warriors wear different types of armor depending on their needs. In order to find the best time to attack, fighters often rely on their own equipment and combat experience to block the opponent's attacks until they find the opponent's flaws.
A warrior may not be able to surpass a swordsman of the same rank in swordsmanship, but with excellent equipment and control of attack and defense in battle, he can generally defeat a swordsman of the same rank.
It can be said that a large part of the strength of a warrior is based on its own equipment.
That's why, even when realizing that a fight might happen, Rhodes was just prepared and didn't get too nervous.
Rhodes knew that although he might not be able to defeat Yusher on his own, with the help of the vampires beside him, if Yusher planned to make a move here, then winning or losing was really not certain.
Even if you have a space ring, armor is different from weapons and can be taken out instantly, and it takes a lot of time to put on a full set of armor.
Warriors who did not wear armor, although their basic stats were not reduced, could not withstand several attacks from vampires, and with Rhodes looking for opportunities to raid on the sidelines, Rhodes didn't think that Yuser would be able to hold out for long.
It's just that...... Rhodes thought that once he fought Yusher, unless he was dealt with quickly, the rest of the merchant group would surround him, and coupled with the possible spellcaster, he should think about how to escape from the merchant group's station.
Moreover, at this time, only this merchant group will go to the City of Sorrow, if Rhodes misses this opportunity, it may have to wait for a long time before there will be a second merchant group to go to the City of Grief, and Rhodes will even have to completely change his plans.
While Rhodes was thinking about it, Yuser's heart was not at peace.
Yusher couldn't figure out how the necromancer in front of him found out that the goods he was really transporting were revenant crystals. Although the necromancer in front of him had already said it sentence by sentence, Yusher couldn't believe that it was inferred by the necromancer in front of him based on some clues alone.
In a very short period of time, Yuser thought about it a lot, but there were still many questions in Yusher's mind. What is the real purpose of a necromancer? Is it his own henchmen who betrayed information and colluded with necromancers? Or were they the eyes of the other merchant groups sent to test them?
If the necromancer in front of him really has other purposes, and Yu Ether doesn't want the information of his batch of revenant crystals to be exposed, the best way is to take advantage of the moment to kill the necromancer, and then leave immediately with the merchant group, although this is a bit suspicious of wanting to cover up, but this is undoubtedly the best way for now.
However, through the exchange of momentum, Uther dispelled this idea. With years of combat experience, Yuser is sensitive to the perception of danger. The momentum of the two people in front of him undoubtedly told Yuser that if he made a rash move, he was afraid that he would fall first.
At this time, a feeling suddenly flashed in Yusher's heart, although the two people in front of him were no different from the necromancers he had seen before, but the momentum they exuded was not like that of a necromancer who would only hide behind and manipulate undead creatures, but more like a melee professional who had experienced a hundred battles.
Yusher took a deep breath, the situation in front of him was obviously beyond his expectations, and for his previous judgments, Yusher didn't know which ones were correct and which ones they deliberately showed to mislead him, so he could only stabilize the two in front of him first.
Yusher said slowly, "I can take the two of you to the City of Sorrow without even charging you any travel expenses, but you must stay at the caravan station until the caravan departs. ”
Hearing this, Rhodes also confirmed Yusser's thoughts, so he said, "Then, it will be troublesome for the merchant group to take care of it along the way." "Kind of agreed to Yuser's request.
Uther nodded, motioning for Rhodes and the vampire to wait here for a moment, and then came to the back of the tent and shouted a few words.
After a while, a man dressed as a thief entered the tent from behind. After Uther whispered a few words to him, the thieves led Rhodes and the vampires out of the tent.
Led by the thieves, Rhodes and his party walked in the direction they had come from for a while, and came to an empty carriage.
"Please rest here for the two mages, and the merchant group will depart in two days. If you need anything, please let me know in advance and I will buy it for you. ”
The thief's hoarse voice reached Rod's ears. Rod didn't know if he was deliberately keeping his tone down, or if his voice was like that.
After saying this, the thief did not leave, but waited on the sidelines.
Rhodes understands that although Uther agrees to be a traveler with the vampire, he is not at ease, and the thief will stay here after he has shown his way, saying that he is waiting for his and the vampire's orders, but in fact he is monitoring himself for any changes.
This method of Uther was also expected by Rhodes. If Uther didn't put any surveillance on Rhodes, it would have been contrary to Rhodes' expectations.
Rod didn't say much, just led the vampire and boarded the carriage.
