Chapter 57: An Encounter Beyond Fate
The location of the Knights and Heroes' Tavern is very remote, and it is in the old town of Stormwind, and there are not many customers in the tavern.
After Rod officially became the bartender of the tavern, Dora naturally reopened the door of the tavern, but it seemed that no one would come for a while.
But to Rod's surprise, it was not long after their conversation ended.
Crunch.
The wooden door of the tavern was gently pushed open, and a young girl walked in behind the door.
The girl has curly blond hair, long hair is slightly curly, she is wearing an ordinary long dress, her temperament is very elegant, with the help of the light in the tavern, at first glance there is a sense of trance, as if such a girl should meet in a quiet library on a quiet afternoon.
At the age of about seventeen or eighteen, it was a good time for young cardamom.
She held a thick book in her arms, pushed the door in, and looked up just in time to meet Rod's deep eyes.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still.
Behind the dim light obliquely shining through the door, Rhodes was carrying a giant sword, his eyes were deep, and the girl was holding a book with an indifferent expression.
One word, wonderful.
"What a pair of pure and indifferent eyes!"
Rod sighed in his heart, he recognized the girl in front of him, different from the resolute female god of war in his memory, she was more like a quiet literary girl at this time.
"Hello."
The girl bowed slightly with the book in her arms and greeted Rhodes politely.
"Eh, Aisha, you're back, I'll introduce you, this is the new bartender, called ...... What's it called? When Dora saw the girl, she pulled her over and turned her head to introduce Rod.
"Rod." Rod nodded slightly to the girl.
"Elsa, Aisha Anglias." The girl named Aisha smiled in response.
Queen of the Storm, Aisha Anglias!
The inheritor of the will of the storm, the guardian of order, and the most powerful female god of war in the underworld, all of them can leave an epic legacy in the history of the Ash world!
Rod looked at the quiet literary girl in front of him, and it was difficult to associate her with the resolute figure in his memory holding the battle flag.
Recalling the heroic words of the queen in the past, Rhodes couldn't help but look a little dazed for a while.
"As long as there are hopes and ideals in the world, this flag will continue to stand above the earth......"
"Nice to meet you!"
Rod's body leaned slightly, and inadvertently, he actually used honorifics, and even bent down.
This is Rod's return tribute to the future Queen of Stormwind, a venerable epic hero who carries the weight of an era on her thin shoulders, a hero who can calmly accept the respect of any living being in the Ash world.
Someone once described that dark era as follows: "Darkness and night are its main colors, and endless despair and irrepressible weeping are its main theme......"
And the Queen of the Storm was one of the few rays of hope of that era.
According to the Oriental Monks, the girl in front of Rhodes is the so-called "Chosen One", a figure destined to shine at this time.
…………
"Hey, it's a curious wine!" A young man with a bit of surprise in his voice suddenly spoke.
At this time, Rod realized that there was a young man behind Aisha.
The young man was dressed in steel armor and carried a sword on his back, although the sword was hidden in the sheath, there was a faint flash of light on the hilt of the sword exposed outside, which was obviously not ordinary.
Dora watched the young man smell the fragrance of "Humble Sword Wine", and her eyes became a little ill-intentioned, "Stinky boy, this wine belongs to the old lady!" You don't want to grab a bar with your mother! ”
"How dare you...... No matter how bold I am, I don't dare to grab wine with Sister Dora," a wry smile flashed on the young man's face, and he quickly waved his hand.
Rod glanced at the young man.
Third-order strength!
At this age, he can be regarded as the leader of the younger generation in Stormwind City, but in Dora's hands, he is still abused, and it is estimated that this young man must have suffered a lot.
And looking at the badge on his armor, it turned out to be a member of the Storm Hunting Regiment.
"Who is this?" Rhodes pondered for a moment, but still asked.
Since he can enter and exit the Knight and Haojie Tavern at this time, he should also be regarded as the number one person, after all, the guy who can follow the "Chosen One" is estimated to be the number one person in the future.
Dora said with a big grin, "He's called Connie, and he's a regular customer of the tavern." ”
"Sister Dora, you're out of sight," the young man said with a hint of gloom in his eyes when he heard the word "old customer," and then he said with a smile on his face.
He looked at Rod quietly, and asked with a slightly surprised expression: "Didn't the boss say that the tavern is not short of manpower, if this new bartender is not a relative of the boss, I'm afraid he has some special skills?" ”
Rod felt a little cold in his heart.
Connie.
In Rod's impression, there was no big man named Connie on the Stormwind side in the future, but later there was a guy who defected from Stormwind City to the ground with the same name as him.
The specific Rhodes is not clear.
He only remembered that there was a high-level organization in the terrestrial world called "Connie", this guy was said to be from Stormwind City, and later defected to that organization, and even caused a series of problems in Stormwind City because of his defection.
But this guy is also fateful.
After escaping from the Shadow Realm to the surface, he actually mixed into a certain ground power and became a high-level leader.
Later, Stormwind and many forces on the ground joined forces to create the "Scarlet Defense Line", and it was only then that someone recognized this Connie.
The main reason why Rhodes remembered this person was because the people of Stormwind almost broke out a war with that ground force in the first place.
If it weren't for the mediation of many legendary powerhouses later, and the Queen of the Storm taking into account the overall situation to suppress the contradictions, this Connie would be afraid that he would not be able to die again.
At that time, Rod's friend Blacklight Swordmaster was one of the mediators.
That's why he was a little impressed.
[Traitor] - Connie!
This later became a small plot of the Scarlet Line.
"Relative, boss's old bachelor, what relatives can you expect from him," Dora pouted, "As for special skills, this kid has a good drink, and that's all." ”
Hearing Dora say this, Connie's eyes flashed with contempt as if they were Rod's.
On the surface, he pretended to sigh and said, "Alas, I knew that I was going to learn how to mix too." ”
Dora laughed and said nothing.
"You can't mix this wine." Aisha took a sip of sword wine gently, the wine moistened her throat, and her white face was as white as snow, and the white was red, just like the cold plum and the frost bloomed in the cold, and for a while, the girl was unbelievably beautiful.
Connie's eyes flashed with a hint of amazement and a little admiration.
She had a quiet temperament, a touch of surprise in her eyes, and said calmly: "The preparation technique of this wine is very special, similar to the secret method of 'Dragon's Breath Beer' in the "Southern Chronicles", but the meaning in this wine is long, and it is very similar to the oriental bartending technique recorded in "Far East Collections"...... This wine is extraordinary. ”
Rod was also surprised.
This Queen Elsa is really extraordinary, she actually found out the origin of the sword wine with a light sip.
Hiss!
Dora's eyes widened, and she saw that after Aisha took a sip of sword wine, her face ached, and she immediately snatched the wine glass from Aisha's hand.
Seeing a look of interest in Elsa's eyes, Connie's expression moved.
He flipped through his hand, and a hedron appeared in his hand.
"This is what our team went to near the [Fear Castle] when the city ordered to clear the monsters," Connie held the hedron with a reserved smile on his face, "For this spar, I personally beheaded a gnoll leader and a few gnoll elites, Elsa, you have so much knowledge, why don't you identify it for me." ”
Rod chuckled inwardly.
This Connie seemed to be asking Elsa to identify the hedrons, but there was arrogance in his words.
Kill one Gnoll Leader and several Gnoll Elites......
said lightly, I'm afraid that I can't be proud in my heart!
"It's interesting, though." Rod carefully looked at the hedron in Connie's hand, and was a little surprised in his heart.
