Chapter 645: The City of Decisive Battle (III)

The moment he saw the other party, Rhodes confirmed the true identity of the person in front of him. Obviously, in such a place, the whole body glows like a big light bulb, and the only one is Catherine, the angel of light. While confirming the identity of the other party, Rod's eyes rolled, and then began to carefully look at the little five Lori next to him and Catherine opposite. And at this moment, Catherine obviously also saw Rod and Xiao Wu Lori, she paused slightly, and then Rod and Xiao Wu Lori saw her come forward, first bowed to the two people in front of her seriously, and then asked with a puzzled expression.

"Excuse me......... What is this place? ”

"I don't know what this place is."

Seeing that Xiao Wu Lori didn't seem to have any intention of answering Catherine's question, Rhodes quickly started working on foreign affairs. He wasn't sure what to do about it. But in fact, Rod found that Xiao Wu Lori seemed to be very uninterested in Catherine, or that her attitude towards Catherine and Rod was too far apart. It stands to reason that both parties and her are meeting each other for the first time, but in the face of Rod, Xiao Wu Lori quickly let down her guard and talked to him. But when Catherine came up to ask, Rod was keenly aware that Xiao Wu Lori took a step back, although her expression didn't seem to change, but it didn't seem to be very willing to talk to Catherine. And Rod was naturally keenly aware of this, so he quickly took over the task and began to talk to Catherine.

I don't know if it's because the projections of the spiritual world are easier to believe in others, and for Rod's clichΓ©, this Catherine in front of her didn't hesitate anything. Instead, the answer was quickly given. According to Catherine, she is also the same as Xiao Wu Lori. I came here as soon as I opened my eyes.,But it's different from Xiao Wu Lori.。 It wasn't until now that Catherine met Rhodes and Little Five Lori, and she didn't meet half a person other than that. From this point of view, Catherine is much more tragic than Little Five Lori and Rod. Maybe it's because of this that after seeing Rod and Xiaowu Lori, she came up to talk to the two of them.

After some conversation, Catherine accepted Rod's invitation to join their team. In fact, now it doesn't matter if it's Rhodes, Little Five Lori or Catherine. I don't know what I'm supposed to do next, even Rhodes. He only vaguely knew that he had to handle the twelve personalities of four people at the same time. But how exactly do you do it? Karen didn't tell him this, and it didn't seem like a fight was going to solve the problem now. Otherwise, Karen could have given these personality projections a mission, such as defeating everyone you encountered, before she could leave this world. This kind of setting Rod has seen a lot of similar things in the novels of Earth, and Karen is so smart that she definitely can't even think of such a simple thing. So at least the possibility of such a scuffle should be ruled out, but other than that, it is always so aimless............ It doesn't seem like a good idea. Rhodes believed that Karene must have been waiting for an opportunity, after all, she had made it quite clear to herself. This trial is the biggest test for yourself, and it is absolutely impossible to end it with a few turns so easily.

It was not for nothing that Rhodes thought so, they hadn't met anyone else since they met Catherine. And he also found out. Catherine and Little Five Lori don't seem to talk much to each other. Although the three of them seemed to have a good rapport as they walked, Rhodes played the role of a "traveler" as always, and then told them some stories of his own. And the two of them listened very attentively. It looks like a good thing. But in fact this was not the case, and Rod soon found out. There was not really peace between these two men. Or the problem is on Xiao Wu Lori's side, Catherine is full of kindness. At first, I took the initiative to talk to Xiao Wu Lori. But Xiao Wu Lori seems to be a little ignorant of her, and she speaks in one or two sentences at most. It's very interesting not to talk about someone else touching the nail, but this Catherine seems to be a little bit of a little bit of a don't hit the south wall and doesn't look back, and she still has the perseverance to talk to Xiao Wu Lori. Fortunately, Rod changed the topic in time, otherwise Xiao Wu Lori might not have quarreled directly with Catherine because of this is another matter.

Of course, in the process, Rhodes himself was observing. Based on his first impressions of these cards, Rhodes thinks that the two Little Five Lolitas he encountered may not be the main personality. Because this little five Lori doesn't seem to like to divide others, and she lacks enthusiasm for fighting. And that Catherine was the same, and after a few words of conversation with Rhodes, she found that she was simply too weak -- one might even say that she was a complete pacifist, and she did not want to rely on battle to solve the problem in everything, and seemed quite hesitant in this regard. This was obviously different from the Catherine that Rhodes had met in the previous battle, the angel of light was very decisive and brave in battle, and there were not so many twists and turns at all. Therefore, Rhodes also guessed from here that these two personalities should be subordinate products, not ontology.

But even so, that's what Rhodes observed. The next three people were still wandering aimlessly, and Rhodes originally planned to let Xiao Wu Lori lead the way to find Echowne. As a result, after tossing and turning a few laps, I lost the other party's tracks, and I don't know where that Ehorn ran to. However, the patience of the three people is not bad, even if it is just like this, there is no anxiety and impatience. After all, it's all spiritual projection............ There is no need to eat or drink at all.

"Woo...............!!"

And just as the three of them were wandering around aimlessly, a low and strange voice suddenly came, which made the three of them stunned, and then looked in the direction where the sound came from. Only then did Rhodes realize that the harsh-sounding sounds were coming from the loudspeakers of the tall building next to him, and after a while, the strange sounds gradually subsided. Immediately after, a voice familiar to Rhodes sounded from it.

"Hello contestants, now I think you've found your teammates. Then, the game can officially begin. ”

"Huh? Ay? What's going on? What happened? ”

For this sudden sound. Catherine seemed surprised, and she looked around. Then he stared at the loudspeaker in front of him with confusion and curiosity, obviously not knowing what to do with the situation in front of him. On the other side, Xiao Wu Lori pursed her lips and put on a disdainful look, but even so, she raised her head and stared intently at the horn in front of her. As for Rod, he was obviously mentally prepared, and he had guessed that Karene would not just let herself grow old in the city with nothing to do. Now it seems that it is not surprising.

"I think you're probably all wondering how you got here. But this is a question that we cannot answer. And even if you ask questions, we don't have the authority to answer them............... So we don't need to waste time on this kind of thing, and here, all we have to explain is the content of this competition. ”

Saying this, along with that voice, Rod's eyes soon began to dim as if it were dark. Subsequently. He noticed that at the top of the tower not far away, something was shining, like a lighthouse in the darkness, illuminating the city that was otherwise extremely dark and dim because of the fall of night. And that's not all. As night fell, Rhodes clearly felt a dangerous aura begin to permeate the city. It felt different than before, and it wasn't because of the emptiness and darkness of the city. It's something more concrete. According to Rod's feelings, it was as if some beast had been released from its cage. That sense of tension pervades the air.

"The content of the game is simple, we thought. You should have seen the bright light at the top of the tower at this moment, it is the spirit crystal, as long as you can gather these spirit crystals, you can open the same path to the top of the dream, and after passing the test of the top of the dream, you can leave here and return to your respective worlds. Of course, you'll also know why you're here. ”

Karen's speech was as mechanical as ever, with no ups and downs, but an answer that was very calm. But hearing this, Rod had already frowned, just like Rod had thought before, and now he had almost guessed what Karen was thinking. Sure enough, just when this idea just came to Rod's mind, suddenly, he only heard the originally flat, emotionless voice of the machine like a computer in the loudspeaker.

It's like the cold wind turning into a cool stream, and it becomes soft and light.

"Of course, since it's a game, there have to be rules. There are a total of twelve spirit crystals, and only when each person gets at least three spirit crystals can they open the door to the top of the dream, I am optimistic about you? Ladies and gentlemen, please work hard to win this game............ Woohoohoo..............."

With a chuckle that sounded clearly "ill-intentioned", the voice in the horn disappeared again. And at this moment, Rhodes and the others also fell into silence.

"Sure enough..............."

After listening to the rules of the game, Rod reluctantly reached out and pressed his forehead. As Karen said, the rules of the competition are simple, as long as a person can collect three spirit crystals, he can open the door and go back to his own world. Then the problem comes, there are a total of twelve spirit crystals in this decisive battle city. Each person needs to get at least three crystals to be able to clear the level. Then it means that only four people can pass this test, and the others have no hope.

But it is clear that no one will sit still and be caught. Then what will happen next can be predicted, and there will definitely be people who will take action for this and snatch other people's spirit crystals. And this is the problem that Rhodes is currently facing. Rod sighed at the thought of this, and then he turned his head to look at the other two people who were following him.

"What do you guys think?"

"This ............... I think we should think about ..............."

"What else to consider? Let's go, Mr. Rhodes! It's so slow, what if someone else robs the crystal? ”

In the face of Rod's inquiry, Catherine said with some hesitation. But before she finished speaking, she was interrupted impatiently by Xiao Wu Lori. The little one stomped his foot vigorously, accompanying her movements. A burst of soul light poured out, and it looked unusually dazzling in the dimly lit streetsβ€”or not at all. At least the light bulb next to it is much brighter than the little one.

"But......... It's not good to snatch this kind of behavior........."

Listening to Xiao Wu Lori's words, Catherine was obviously a little uneasy. She tried to say something more. But Xiao Wu Lori didn't seem to intend to listen to what she said, but turned her head and stared at Rod in front of her.

"What do you think, Mr. Rhodes?"

"Looks like that's the end of it."

Facing Xiao Wu Lori's inquiry, Rod also nodded quickly. Then he looked up, glanced at Catherine beside him, and spoke.

"I think we all want to get out of this place and go back to our own world. Then we have no reason to hesitate now, Miss Catherine. I know you don't like fighting. I don't want to rob other people's things if I can. But now those spirit crystals are ownerless things, as long as we get those things before others, then it is not considered to be grabbed. ”

"But............ Others need these crystals too..............."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

Faced with this Catherine, who had carefully raised questions in front of him, Rhodes was completely speechless. He has almost figured out now that this Catherine should be regarded as the original personality of the Angel of Light, to put it bluntly, she is the Extreme Virgin, so kind that she is not even willing to kill a chicken, and she always thinks about others first compared to herself, as if I don't go to hell and who goes to hell. For such people, Rod does not hate it. But I don't like it, especially when this kind of person is on his side, there are only three words to describe -- pig teammates.

And at this time, the little five Lori next to her finally couldn't help but burst out.

"Ahh Sick of it. You care about other people's death!! You don't want to go back, I still want to go back! If that's what you think, then you might as well kill yourself! Let's go. Mr. Rod, ignore people like this!! ”

"Hey..............."

looked at the little five Lori who walked forward angrily. Rod sighed helplessly, and then he looked at Catherine, who was pale. To be honest, he is extremely depressed right now. I thought something was not quite right when I looked at it before, but now this scene in front of me proves that Rod's deep hunch is correct. He could be sure that the reason why Karen started the game at this time must be because everyone had already gathered together to form a team like Rhodes and the others. Otherwise, when Rhodes and Catherine met, Karene should have started the game a long time ago.

Although I don't know how many people there are on the other side, it seems that they should all be in a group of three now. In this case, if you don't have enough people on your side, it may be difficult to win the final victory. As a result, I still encounter this kind of thing now, needless to say, Xiao Wu Lori, her own strength will not be discussed, and it can be seen from the fact that she was beaten by Echhorn and buried under the ruins, her combat effectiveness is obviously not high. And Catherine is a damn pacifist who says "I don't go to hell, who goes to hell", and as a result, the game has just begun, and her team is on the verge of falling apart............... Hey, then again, Rod is depressed enough, why is he so unlucky to get so many teammates? But now it's pointless to complain about that, and worse still, for others, it may just be a game. But for Rod, it's not just a game, it's a contest with other personalities. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to destroy other personalities to achieve victory, which means that Rhodes must not only win, but also gain the recognition of each of their personalities, which is tantamount to requiring Rhodes not only to defeat them, but also to turn enemies into friends with them...............

The problem is that, according to Kalen's rules, there are only four winners. It is conceivable that even if King Rhodes was so angry that he accepted all the other twelve personalities, it would be impossible to ............ Well? Thinking of this, Rod was stunned for a moment, and then, he seemed to think of something. Twelve spirit crystals, up to four victors, does this mean .........

However, it was at this time that Catherine's voice rang in Rod's ears, breaking his musings.

"Mr. Rod, she ..............."

Hearing Catherine's voice, Rhodes raised his head, and was greeted by Catherine's embarrassed face, as if she had made a mistake and was reflecting. Seeing Catherine's expression, Rod also shrugged his shoulders, and then spread his hands.

"Anyway, let's keep up with you, Catherine. Not to mention this competition, I think it's a bit dangerous in the city right now, it's not as peaceful as it used to be. I'm worried that something will happen to that little guy, so let's get over to it anyway. ”

"Okay."

Catherine was slightly embarrassed to hear Rod's words, but in the end she nodded and walked forward with Rod. (To be continued......)
