Chapter 1536: The Grave Keeper II
"How can this be ......"
After listening to the grave keeper's story, Rhodes was still thinking, and Inotta muttered with a look of loss.
"Grave keeper, are you telling the truth? How did you know all this? On the side, Rowling, who was also touched, took the initiative to ask.
"I witnessed all of this a long time ago. Whether this is true or not depends on whether you believe it or not. The old man replied.
On the side, Rhodes clasped his hands in front of him, his eyes lit up, looked directly at the old man, and made his own judgment: "He didn't lie. ”
The existence of the hero's specialty made Rod realize that what the grave keeper said was true, and in addition, the information about the hero in his memory also made Rod very interested.
I don't know how long the grave keeper in front of him has lived, and Rod's peeping eyes can't find really useful information from his vast memories, only when he mentions the hero, Rod can see some fragments of memory.
This situation, before this, Rod had only felt it in Messia's body.
"You call yourself the grave keeper, who are you guarding the grave for?" Rowling asked.
"For those who have passed away, for the flames that have been extinguished, and for ......"
"Alright, answer my question." Rod forcefully interrupted the grave keeper's answer, "Where are his eyes?" ”
"What eyes?" The grave keeper glanced at Rhodes and asked.
"It's the hero's eyes. The eyes he gouged out should be put away by you in the end, right? Rod's eyes narrowed slightly, and he took a step forward and came to the grave keeper and said.
"I didn't say that." The grave keeper replied with an unchanged expression.
"But you did." Rod raised his eyebrows and said loudly, "How dare you hide such crucial information from me!" Do you know what it costs me to cheat? ”
"I didn't lie to you, didn't you find out?" The grave keeper shrugged his shoulders, and under his old face, he looked at Rhodes with a glimmer of light in his eyes, "So, you have the ability to recognize lies...... No, it should be the ability to see through the heart, which is a rare ability. ”
At the same time, Rhodes, who was watching the grave keeper, suddenly felt that something was wrong. The grave keeper's mind was suddenly filled with a large number of distracting thoughts, which completely occupied his heart, and his mind was moving at a rapid pace, but all the thoughts were inconsequential and negligible information.
"What did you do......" Rod asked in a deep voice. When his heart was completely occupied by distracting thoughts, Rhodes only got these distractions through his peeping eyes, and did not have the slightest idea of the tomb keeper's heart.
"I didn't do anything, I was just thinking about some problems." The grave keeper said slowly.
"Enough! Give me his eyes. Rod snorted coldly and said.
The grave keeper fell silent and looked at Rhodes carefully. Rod raised his head slightly, he always felt that the green-skinned old man in front of him was looking at something on his body.
After a long moment, Rhodes heard the voice of the grave keeper: "You remind me of that hero." You have a token that belongs to him. In this way, you have been guided by fate to come here......"
Rhodes was a little puzzled and was about to ask, but saw the grave keeper take out a red iron box. The heavy chains wrapped around the surface of the tin box, conveying a kind of warning to Rhodes.
"What exists in the tin box is his eyes."
Rhodes took the tin box and was about to remove the chains wrapped around it and open it, when the grave keeper hurriedly stopped him and said, "No...... Don't turn it on here. ”
"Why?" Rod asked.
"He is a hero born of a curse, and even after countless years, the curse that remains in his eyes has not dissipated, and if you are seen by his eyes, you will also become a bloodthirsty monster......" the grave keeper reminded repeatedly.
"If I don't open the check, how can I believe all this you say?" Holding up the iron box in his hand, Rod asked with some suspicion.
"Of course you'll know all this."
With the words of the grave keeper, his heart instantly calmed down, and the distractions in it dissipated. Under the effect of the prying eye, Rhodes also got the true thoughts in the heart of the grave keeper, so as to judge the accuracy of his words.
After confirming that the grave keeper had not deceived himself, Rhodes looked around and asked, "Is there really no phoenix here?" ”
The grave keeper nodded, "As far as I know, there are no phoenixes in the entire Land of Flames. ”
"You just said that there is a token of that hero on my body, what kind of token is it?" Rod looked directly at the grave keeper in front of him and asked.
"I won't be mistaken for that large cloak of yours......" replied the grave keeper.
Rhodes frowned, listening to the grave keeper, that hero was probably the former owner of the Ghost King's cloak, and he didn't know what happened to this artifact.
With a sigh, Rhodes turned to Inota on the side and asked, "Do you want to eat him?" ”
"Hmm......" Inota shook her head as she glanced at the grave keeper in front of her, "his skin is too loose and doesn't look good." ”
"Okay." Rhodes nodded and looked back at the grave keeper on the side, "You're lucky, I won't just kill you, I'll come to you when I come to the fire elemental plane in the future." ”
Like those powerful legendary mages, Rhodes was also dissatisfied that his power only existed in the main plane, and he had already set his sights on other elemental planes.
Among the four elemental planes, the water element plane is undoubtedly the most temperate plane, with almost no shortcomings except for the absence of land and only an ocean. The ocean is the source of life, and the number of ordinary creatures in the water elemental plane is also the largest of all elemental planes.
In comparison, the fire elemental plane is much inferior, the earth with magma flowing everywhere, coupled with the hot temperature, makes this place not suitable for ordinary creatures to survive, and without fire thaumaturgical protection, ordinary creatures simply cannot stay here for a long time. This also results in the fire elemental plane's normal creatures, the fewest of all the planes.
For these reasons, Rhodes didn't want to put his main force in the fire elemental plane, but it was still a backup option, especially on the Flame Plains not far away, and the huge tents left behind by those plane walkers, which also gave Rhodes some ideas.
After putting the iron box into the spatial ring, Rhodes put his hand on Rowling and Inotta's shoulders, and the fire flashed, and the two of them disappeared together.
