Chapter 245: Rowling's Choice

Compared to the City of the Dead, which Rhodes once visited, Valen City can be said to have changed a lot.

Of course, this requires completely ignoring the outer city of Valen, which is still very different from ordinary human cities if the outer city is also included.

Thinking of the creatures in the outer city, Rhodes knew that Valen City was not as simple as he saw it.

Upon entering the inner city, the surrounding scenes, whether it was the crowds of people coming and going, or the children gathered to play, attracted Rowling's attention.

Observing the surrounding environment, the original grievances in Rowling's heart seem to have eased a lot.

Rowling noticed that Rhodes was ahead, talking to the guards leading the way, and didn't pay attention to herself behind her, so she stopped paying attention to Rhodes and turned her attention to the pedestrians around her.

This observation couldn't help but shock Rowling's heart again.

Rowling noticed that the children she thought were just playing were not what she had imagined.

Rowling noticed that among the children, a creature she had seen before was falling among them. The children, with improvised weapons in their hands, branches and clubs, were randomly striking at the creature in the middle.

In the face of the attacks of the children around him, the creature did not seem to have any strength to resist, but only waved his twig-like hands, trying to keep these attacks out of his body, but he was obviously unable to do so, and on the contrary, the desire of the children to attack was aroused.

The creature tried to flee backwards, but his body was held firmly in place by several older children. Apparently, they didn't intend to spare the creature, but rather wanted to torture it to death.

Obviously, this kind of humanoid creature with a crumpled body is just as capable of fighting as they look, and there is no hidden power.

On the side, several passers-by seemed to notice this, but they ignored the children and quickly walked away.

As if discovering the humanoid's intention to escape, the surrounding children let out arrogant laughter, and at the same time, the movement of their hands kept coming, and they kept hitting the humanoid creature in the field.

If the children had gone with all their might, it would not have been long before they were able to kill the creature completely, but instead of doing so, they played with it, and whenever the creature was beaten half to death, they would stop and let it rest before hitting it again.

Seeing all this in her eyes, Rowling's face showed an extremely shocked look,

Remembering the large number of corpses of these creatures she had seen outside the city gates, Rowling seemed to understand what was going on with them.

Perhaps out of kindness in her heart, even if she didn't know anything about the situation, Rowling couldn't bear to watch this creature being tortured like this by this group of children.

Rowling raised her hand, and as Rod had taught her to cast a spell, a magical arrow was released.

Also due to unbearability, the magic arrow did not release towards these children, but only hit the ground on the side.

In an instant, a small crater was directly blown out of the location hit by the magic arrow. When the surrounding children saw this, they immediately fled to the side.

These children have been taught to stay away from magic and not to be associated with any spellcaster.

When the children fled, the creature was thrown in place, but at this time, he had no strength to escape, so he could only curl up on the ground to protect the wounds on his body.

Once Rowling is gone, the children will also return, and the creature's fate is clearly sealed.

Rowling motioned for the centaur leader to stop, but the centaur leader ignored her and continued on his way.

Rowling knew that only Rhodes could control the centaur leader, and if Rod didn't want to, then the centaur leader wouldn't stop no matter what.

At this time, Rowling looked at Rhodes in front of her and found that Rhodes was also looking in her direction.

In the process of moving forward, the guards explained the general area of the city to Rod, and there was no idea of concealment, which couldn't help but make Rodt look at the guard a few times.

When Rhodes asked him about the situation in the outer city, the guard did not answer Rhodes directly, but only briefly mentioned a few words and brought him over, which attracted Rhodes' attention.

Due to the large number of cities in the game, Rhodes could not know the anomalies of Valen City based on memory alone, and if he wanted to know these news, he still needed to go and find out by himself.

When he sensed the mana fluctuations coming from behind, Rhodes immediately ended his conversation with the guards and looked back at Rowling's position, only to see Rowling finish casting the spell.

Following the direction of the magic arrow, Rhodes also spotted the creature lying aside. Recalling what he had seen when he first entered the city, Rhodes immediately realized what was happening in the rear.

Rhodes didn't have any comments on Rowling's actions, he just thought she was wasting mana. Rhodes didn't bother with Rowling's attempt to get the centaur leader to stop.

Just as Rod was about to turn around and continue talking to the guard, Rod noticed Rowling's extremely determined eyes.

Seeing the determination in Rowling's eyes, Rod could only let out a long sigh in the end. Rod knew that no matter how much he refused, he couldn't stop Rowling at this time.

Rowling also has her own ideas. Rhodes realized that he could guide Rowling in terms of combat awareness, but he could not impose his own ideas on Rowling in this position.

For Rowling, who is a natural hero, how to deal with these things still needs to be experienced by herself, and only in this way can she really grow.

Rod wanted to take Rowling with her and let her grow in the process, but since she wanted to deal with these things now, Rod didn't plan to stop her.

At Rod's signal, the centaur leader stopped moving forward, but ran directly in the direction of the creature with Rowling.

At this time, Rhodes no longer cared about the situation in the rear, but continued to walk towards the city with the guards beside him.

Just after Rhodes left, a bat slowly descended from the sky and stopped on the treetops not far away, staring at Rowling on the ground beside him.

In order to ensure Rowling's safety, Rhodes asked the vampire to leave the ghost dragon's body and hide in a nearby tree to prevent any accidents from Rowling.

As for Rod himself, after the comprehensive strength has been greatly improved, he is not worried about what will happen.
