The next day.

When Scarlet was still asleep, Yue'er opened her eyes in a daze, rubbed the corners of her eyes, she gently moved aside and smashed her mouth, ready to get up and make breakfast.

looked at Scarlet's sleeping quiet appearance, and looked at the little one who was curled up there.

It's been a long time since I've seen Sister Scarlet sleep so sweetly, Yue'er smiled softly.

Immediately, her face was bitter again.

There is not much food at home.

Sister Scarlet doesn't know anything about cooking, and Xiaoxiao is too young. All along, it was Yue'er who worked hard to save the few grains and work hard to maintain the family.

It is inconceivable that a little girl of half age has to get up early every day, and before some sneaky guys get up, she has to go out to find some food to satisfy her stomach.

Every time she cooks, it is also a problem for her, and she has to put on a small bench to barely fit the stove.

Just as she crawled out of bed.

A bowl of lean porridge with an enticing aroma has already appeared in front of me.

Rod's wooden face barely managed to squeeze out a smile, as tall as him, and even wearing a floral apron, it was really indescribably funny. Scratching his head a little bewildered, Rhodes turned around and went back to get the other people's food.

I took a gentle sip.

It's delicious and sweet!

Yue'er's heart thought beautifully. Although the meat of this [rock lizard] is very stiff and the taste is extremely poor, in Yue'er's heart, this is the food cooked by her brother, and it has the sweetness of home in itself, not to mention, she has not tasted meat for a long time.

One bite, two bites......

Yue'er's small mouth ate quickly, and while she was eating, she looked at Rod's rough cut of meat, and her face was filled with the most sincere and bright smile. Those pretty eyes were bent into a crescent moon, and it was obvious that Rod's insignificant care made her very happy.

Just after Yue'er finished breakfast, she was about to clean the house and wash Rod's clothes.

There were faint voices outside.

Rod frowned and glanced outside, nodded at Yue'er with a smile, signaled her not to worry, and then picked up his short sword and walked out of the room.

Outside this little stone house.

A very thin guy with eyes that were spinning around like a mouse, and a thief stood in front of Rod.

Looking at the tall Rod with some fear, especially after feeling the sharpness of the swordsman after the full level of Rhodes' basic profession, this guy shrank back and said in fear: "Greetings to Hammer, the giant axe striker!" ”

Hearing this, Rod frowned.

If his memory was correct, the second-highest leader in the Black Rock Gathering was Hammer, known as the "Great Axe Striker".

Giant Axe Striker!

This is a name for the master of the profession, and the great axe symbolizes that the weapon that the person is good at using is the giant axe, and when the giant axe can be used to a certain extent, and is recognized by everyone, they will give that person a specific title.

Rod's eyes fell on that person, which put a lot of pressure on him, watching the man break out in a cold sweat, Rod said slowly: "What's the matter with Hammer looking for me?" ”

The thief-eyed guy wiped his sweat, as if he had been stabbed by Rod's sword-like gaze, and replied fearfully, "No...... I don't know! Master Hammer has asked me to take you to him. ”

……

Soon after.

Rod put on his leather armor and left the small stone house with his dagger. He left the pieces of meat he had hunted for Yue'er, let the little guy relax, and went out like this.

It's not that Rhodes doesn't care about their safety, but in the Black Rock Gathering Place, since it is Hammer who wants to see him, he will naturally protect his relatives.

After passing through this nameless alley, several tall figures appeared from the shadows, and these stout, meaty-faced creatures hung silently behind them, following Rhodes unhurriedly.

The periphery of Black Rock is full of poor people who are weaker and at the bottom of the Shadow Realm. Although they are pitiful, none of them are good at stubble, and almost everyone who survives in the Shadow Realm has some ability.

Leaving the low, dilapidated areas of the outskirts, Rhodes soon saw some relatively intact, tall buildings where the real masters of the Black Rock Gathering lived.

In this area, there is a decent tavern.

The tavern was neither big nor small, and it seemed to be lively inside, and even from the outside, you could hear those low, thick laughs. Looking through the window, the lights are bright, and the figures are shaking, which is quite a bit of a loud voice.

Pushing open the heavy door of quaint oak trees, the warm smell of hot wine came to my face.

The inside of the tavern looks very spacious, and a group of big men who look five big and three thick are drunkenly gulping wine. On the other side, a few drunks were unscrupulously molesting some maids.

In the center of the tavern, there was a stage-like place with several scantily clad and good-looking girls writhing wildly. From time to time, the exposed youthful ketones of these dancers caused some big men to breathe heavily, and they kept throwing some black coins engraved with the appearance of "Storm" onto the stage, and then the dancers would dance harder, the long flying hair, the delicate red lips, the atmosphere of this tavern to a climax.

Rod's entry did not attract much attention.

This is the Hammer Tavern, in the Shadowlands, where there are always people leaving and people joining. Many of the best players like to come to Hammer's tavern for a few sips, so most of them are not surprised to see a tall young man like Rhodes come in.

The man who brought Rhodes quickly disappeared into the crowd, and he was going to inform Hammer.

Rhodes stood quietly in the corner alone, observing this strange and familiar place. In the game "Eve of the Holy War", everything is simulated, and Rod has been in a tavern like this more than once, and many times, this kind of place can often bring unexpected news, and these news will make him a big gain.

glanced at the dancers on the stage with some fear.

For he found that the dancers had a somewhat different appearance from humans, their faces were softer than those of ordinary women, and their hair was of a different color, a pale green, and if it weren't for their lack of long ears, Rhodes would have mistaken them for elves.

And in the Shadow Realm, elves are not a good thing!

Behind it often represents intrigue and chaos!

Drow!

The drow elves are the only elves that can be seen in the Shadow Domain, and Rhodes, who once came to the Shadow Domain to collect some materials and do tasks, is deeply impressed by these guys, and Rhodes, who rarely suffers, has suffered a lot at the hands of these guys.

After looking at it for a moment, Rhodes looked away, these were just a few half-elves, common in the Shadowlands.

Suddenly.

A burst of angry scolding erupted in the tavern, and many fierce and burly men gathered together and cursed loudly, each of them had a rough and savage face, and that hideous and bloody temperament seemed to have sunk into their bones, and they were not easy to mess with.

"Hell gnolls! May the storm hang them! ”

Several big men held up the bad liquor that smelled of strong liquor, and poured it into their mouths viciously, as if they could drink the gnolls to death. In the farce of these people drinking and scolding, Rhodes learned something.

These people are the hunting team of Black Rock, in the Shadow Domain, hunting is a necessary job, just the things grown in the field can't feed these men, not to mention, the stronger the people, the more they need meat to replenish their physical strength, in the Shadow Domain, which pursues the law of the iron-blooded jungle, if you don't hunt others, others will come to hunt you.

Recently, there has been a lot of activity among gnolls in several settlements, including the Black Rock Cluster.

The hunters interrupted the hunt several times in a row because of the gnolls, and even got into a conflict with a group of gnolls, and several of their companions were wounded. It seems that for this reason, the dungeon state that rules this land, Stormwind, has issued a "hunt order", and it seems that there are signs of a large-scale elimination of gnolls.

Stormwind!

Rod's face darkened in an instant, and among the few impressions he had of the Shadow Realm, Stormwind was definitely the dungeon he had the most impressive.
