Chapter 857: Ring and Tribulation
No matter what life he was in, Rhodes has always been particularly fond of a saying - "A gentleman can be bullied".
The more world-minded a person is, the easier it is to be taken advantage of—as long as you use him for the same purpose as him.
It was for this reason that Rhodes planned to find Shen to seal the Void in the first place, because Shen is the Twilight Eye of the Equilibrium Sect, and no matter how you look at it, you can't turn a blind eye to the Void.
However, now in Akali's mouth, Rod learns a different kind of prudence - he is also a gentleman, but he clings to a completely different truth from Rod's concept, this kind of gentleman, Rod thinks that he can't have exactly the same purpose as him.
Rhodes was never a reason to maintain equilibrium, and he would be willing to eliminate all opposition if he could.
That's right, Lao Tzu is a dictatorship, you bite me?!
In this case, if Rod really finds Shen, and Shen is really willing to help, then I am afraid that there will be a lot of disagreement between the two sides in the final treatment of the void......
Theoretically, the Equilibrium Sect is to be guided by the stars, but the devil only knows how the stars will guide them when the time comes.
In case a group of stars thinks that the Void "exists as reasonable" or "needs to be rescued", then can Rhodes accompany Shen to discuss how to live peacefully with the Void?
Are you kidding.
Seeing that he couldn't think about it, Rhodes had to settle for the next best thing and set his sights on Kalmar.
Karma is the spiritual leader of Ionia and the embodiment of Ionia's will - the devil knows how a nation can produce an avatar of will, but what is certain is that Karma wields a power that is close to the power of runes, but is more primitive than the power of runes.
Karma should also be able to help seal the Void, but it may not be so easy for Rhodes to ask her to move.
Things are getting troublesome.
Considering the urgency of time, Rhodes subconsciously twisted his neck - at this moment, he instinctively sensed that something was wrong, and directly flashed away from the place.
A shadow suddenly appeared, and then took on a physical state.
"A strange and powerful mage." Even though he was just a shadow of an entity, he could speak, "Who are you and where are you from?" ”
Rod frowned slightly, carefully looked at the materialized shadow in front of him, and then looked more and more familiar.
"Robbery?"
"You know me?" The owner of the shadow showed visible confusion, "We've seen it before?" Or is this little girl telling you my story? ”
Rhodes didn't answer him—for it was at this moment that Akali's misery vanished, and the shadow was crushed into a shadow.
"Do you know the robbery?" After defeating the Shadow, Akali remained on her guard, seemingly distrustful of Rod, "How did you call his name?" ”
"Don't be nervous." Rhodes was unimpressed by Akali's wariness, "I don't know him, and it's a guess to recognize him—after all, there are not many people in all of Ionia who can approach me silently to reach this range and be discovered." ”
Akali nodded, logically accepting Rod's opinion - but she remained on her guard, seemingly uneasy about Rod.
For Akali's vigilance, Rod naturally didn't care, anyway, everyone met and nodded at each other, just chatted, in this case, because of cautious worry and vigilance, it was not enough to destroy the feelings - but in the next moment, Akali threw the kunai in his hand directly at Rod.
And at the moment when Akali made a move, Rhodes also left the place.
"Tuk-tuk-"
It looks like a kunai, but in fact, in the shadow of the kunai, there are two kunai hidden in the shadow of the same position as the kunai, which looks like your mediocre throw, but in fact, it is a killing move.
In this attack, Rhodes carried out a wonderful cover, pretending to be stupid to cover the sight of the target, and suddenly left when Kunai appeared, causing the effect of a surprise attack.
But even then, the attack missed.
The shadow dispersed, and after the kunai had passed through, it condensed again, and a man wearing a helmet and a flexible armor appeared in place, his hands still in a sealed state.
"The perception is very sharp." Upon his appearance, the man in the helmet seemed to be pleased with Akali and nodded, "Pain makes people improve—and you, no small improvement." ”
"I'm stronger than I ever was." Akali made a fighting gesture, "But that's because of my diligent practice, not some ridiculous pain." ”
"It's just because you haven't realized it yet." The man in the helmet didn't care about Akali's denial of his claims, "Your father is also very talented and very hardworking, but even when he died, he was not as good as you are now, because he lacked the necessary baptism of pain. ”
"Shut up." Akali was obviously a little reluctant to talk about this topic, so she directly threw out the kunai, "Put away your fallacies—"
"Fallacy ......" The figure of the man in the helmet blurred for a moment, and then returned to normal in an instant, and the kunai thrown by Akali passed through him, "My stupid teacher used to say the same about me, and so did Shen - besides, he just criticized you for a similar reason, you won't forget?" ”
"We're different." Akali didn't care about the recognition in the other person's words, "I think some things are not the same as the one you think, and of course, it's not the same as you think - if it's similar, I think I'm more similar to the former ring." ”
"But it's a pity." The helmet man's throat let out a dry, low laugh, "The ring has been broken, it was broken by his own teacher himself - now there is only robbery!" ”
“……”
Seeing that Akali no longer spoke, the two of them were on guard against each other, but they were communicating with each other in an imperceptible way, and the atmosphere fell into an indescribable embarrassment.
……………………
Looking at the catastrophe that suddenly appeared in front of him, Rod had a toothache.
Obviously he wasn't looking for trouble, but trouble did find him on his own initiative - although it was obvious that the robbery was aimed at Akali, Rhodes would not be naïve enough to think that he would let himself go easily.
Shaking his head a little helplessly, Rhodes took out his staff.
Now it seems that no matter what the situation is, I am afraid that this idle matter still needs to be taken care of.
Well, robber ......
Rhodes thought for a moment and released himself with a few unstable elemental barriers.
In the face of this kind of assassin, I am afraid that I still need to be as careful as possible - the operation of the Shadow Tribulation Rod can't even figure it out.
