Chapter 1647: Sinful Karma Illusion II
I don't know how long it took, the darkness receded from Rhodes, the light enveloped him again, and the scorching earth under his feet became soft at some point, and the air near him did not have a unique smell of sulfur, but brought a burst of fragrance.
At this moment, Rhodes seemed to have returned to the surface world of the past, but it was a pity that this weak little monster body always reminded Rod of his current situation.
Sighing slightly, Rhodes turned on the system log. He noticed that just as the nearby space was changing, there were many new hints in the system log.
What made Rhodes most concerned was a dark yellow panel in the system log that symbolized a special mission.
…………
…………
If it weren't for Messia's prompts, just looking at the task panel in the system, Rod really didn't know how to act.
What made Rhodes concerned was that, according to Messija's words, she seemed to be the creator of this illusion, and even though the body was still imprisoned near the door of treachery, the soul was able to find itself by relying on the existence of the illusion.
For this special being, if Rhodes can gain enough strength, he doesn't mind going to the door of treachery to rescue him, but at this time, relying on Rhode's current strength, going to the door of the treachery of many great demons will undoubtedly only cost his own life.
Shaking his head, at this time, Rhodes hadn't even found the magic ship, and it was undoubtedly too early to think about these things.
From Messija's words, Rhodes realized that the quality of the magic ships made in the dockyard varied, and they all needed to use the special material obtained in the trial, that is, the existence of the soul of the sinner.
In order to build a better magic ship and gain a slight advantage on the lake of fire in the future, Rhodes needs to find a way to complete the trial mission in the illusion with a high degree of completion.
Shaking his head, Rhodes focused his attention on the current trial, and only after completing the trial in the illusion could he be qualified to think about what happened next.
Without much effort, Rhodes climbed onto a large thick tree and looked into the distance.
He noticed that directly opposite the trees was the outline of a town that, if Rhodes had guessed correctly, was the Moth City mentioned in the mission brief, and that it was clearly the town that was the key to completing the trial.
Rhodes was very curious about the group of humans praying to the demons in the mission brief, and they were obviously the key to completing this mission.
Rhodes believed that there must be a deep sinful nature in humans who pray to demons, and their souls are enough to be used as props to complete their tasks. If he could see this group of humans praying to the demons, and he didn't even need to do anything from Rhodes, this trial could be easily completed, and for this, Rhodes also had a goal in mind.
Looking at the silhouette of the town in the distance, and under the cover of nearby trees, Rhodes could see the caravans coming and going outside the town, as well as the soldiers who were constantly patrolling the neighborhood with vigilant expressions.
Judging from the expressions of these soldiers, plus the many armed guards on the periphery of the caravan, the level of security here is more strict than Rhodes imagined, which also makes Rhodes' expression change slightly.
According to Messica's previous words, only humans can provide sinful karma, and Moth City in the illusion is obviously a human town.
And in Rod's memory, Erathia, as the main gathering place of humans, has never let down its guard against demons in history, let alone allowed them to exist. The Erathians are more defensive against demons than they are against necromancers.
In ancient Erathia, only pagans believed in the words of demons, and such people were often directly executed by their lords, without even going through any trial.
Rhodes was convinced that the people mentioned in the mission brief who prayed to the demons were true infidels. The presence of these heretics pointed the way for Rhodes and increased the vigilance of various areas of the city.
Fortunately, the task panel shows that this trial task gives Rod three months, even if he exhausts all these times, the outside world will only pass one day, which also gives Rod enough time to prepare.
With enough time as a buffer, Rhodes didn't have to rush into the city as soon as possible, but was able to observe the surrounding situation in the woods and look for suitable opportunities.
What Rhodes cares most about is the size of the town and the strength of its defenses.
According to Rod's prediction, because he joined the trial in the body of a small monster, with the blessing of the racing achievement, Rod was able to barely compete with a single fifth-order creature, and if there was a sixth-order enemy, or a human army, Rhodes still couldn't solve it.
It was not clear how powerful the illusion was, and Rhodes did not choose to act rashly.
The spatial ring is still worn in Rod's hand, but according to Messia's prompt, Rhodes can't bring anything out of the illusion, on the contrary, what he left in the illusion will disappear forever.
Shaking his head, Rhodes continued to observe every movement outside the city, trying to estimate the size of the town based on the number of caravans coming and going, and the well-equipped guards on their guards.
Rhodes didn't know everything that existed in the illusionary realm, and Messija only told him the most basic rules, but he didn't tell him what the illusion relied on to form.
Once, Rhodes entered the illusion formed by the memory of the Titan giant, and the basis for the formation of that illusion was obviously the memory of the Titan giant, but the illusion in front of him, Rod didn't know what it relied on to form.
Judging by the guards outside the city, and the outfit of a handful of civilians, it seems that this is an earlier period than Rhodes' time.
According to Rod's understanding, if you want to complete the illusion mission, you only need to get any sinner soul, but ordinary sinner souls obviously can't get any good evaluation, and the magic ship they get in the end is not much better.
In order to obtain a higher quality magic ship, Rhodes needs to find the great sinner who exists in the illusion and obtain the soul of the great sinner, or personally stimulate the sinful nature in a human to make him a great sinner. With plenty of time to do the task, Rhodes is confident that he can do one of them.
