Chapter 650: The City of Decisive Battle (VIII)
Rhodes' decision was not entirely unreasonable, although the other side may have a terrain advantage. But Rhodes is better at this. Not only was he very familiar with the buildings, but he also knew what they were for. This is absolutely incomparable to the other side, so Rhodes is confident enough to get rid of the other party and teach those guys a lesson that they will never forget. After all, if you don't come and go, you can't always suffer on your own side, right?
And in fact, Rhodes did the same.
"I really don't understand, why do we have to come here and climb the stairs instead of taking the good road?"
Xiao Wu Lori complained, and at the same time followed closely behind Rod and drilled through the gap in front of him that seemed to only allow one person to pass through guò, but for her complaint, Rod didn't say anything, just glanced at the little guy. He has now finally discovered the third attribute of the little guy besides foodie and battle maniac -- that is, chatter. It's all the way to say it.,Although Xiao Wu Lori will still be serious when it's time to get serious.,But if it's normal, she'll talk non-stop.。 Even if no one responds, she can talk to herself for a while, even snacks can't stop her mouth. Rod didn't know where the little guy was talking so much, but it wasn't his concern right now.
As Xiao Wu Lori complained, on the way to the second tower, Rhodes and the others were attacked by the other party several times in a row after that. These guys are very cunning and leave as soon as they miss. However, Rhodes has already sensed that the combination of these three people should be another little five Lori plus Echhorn, and finally the trio of Dona. In terms of strength, the average level of the opponent is slightly higher than that of his own side. It's just that Rhodes can't confirm whether those three people are the main personality or the same sub-personality as himself. And their thoughts made Rhodes a little puzzled, because he had to worry and worry about a sneak attack. Naturally, the speed on Rod's side will slow down. Judging by the speed, the other party can obviously reach the second tower earlier than Rhodes, and they are not blind, they must have noticed Rhodes' goal. But instead of rushing forward, he wasted time sneaking up on Rhodes. This made Rod a little confused, it was like a long-distance race. Obviously, A was able to reach the finish line earlier than B and set a new record for zào, but he would rather slow down and block in front of B than run to the finish line early. This made Rhodes feel very weird, and to be on the safe side, he deliberately adjusted his route to the third tower, which was obviously a prelude to abandoning. But the other party still ignored it, but stared at himself. In the face of the other party's behavior of not playing cards according to the rules at all, Rod can only be helpless, could it be that he has a flower on his face so lovely?
But no matter what the other party thinks, Rhodes must break this game. Otherwise, if it continues like this, let alone the second spirit crystal, I'm afraid that Rhodes will not have the possibility of getting another spirit crystal at all.
That's why Rhodes chose to deviate from the route and led the two to a tall tower in the middle of the alley. This isn't the place to place spirit crystals, and there's nothing particularly strange about it. But for Rhodes, this is the most convenient place to deal with those guys.
But Rod didn't notice that just behind them, three pairs of eyes hidden in the darkness were carefully watching them not far away. There was a cold light and a fiery desire to fight in those eyes. It seems to be full of contradictions, but it also makes people feel trembling and fear. Subsequently. I saw that the three people hidden in the darkness glanced at each other, and then quickly dispersed. In this way, they quietly surrounded Rhodes and the others from three directions. And Rhodes didn't seem to be aware of this at all, he still took Xiao Wu Lori and Catherine around the dark corridor, knocking on something from time to time. And Xiao Wu Lori also muttered to herself complaining that this building was completely different from what she imagined, and the decoration was not luxurious enough, nor gorgeous enough, nor interesting enough, anyway, she was bored and had nothing to say. And Catherine followed behind the two of them with snacks in her arms as always. It's just that her look of being overwhelmed is no different from before. They didn't even notice that just behind them, three poisonous snakes were slowly but surely approaching them.
Soon, the three blurred figures came not far behind Rod and the others. And at this time, Rod also happened to take Xiao Wu Lori and Catherine around a corner and walked towards the depths. At the same time that the figures of the three disappeared from view, the poisonous snake hidden in the darkness finally opened its mouth, showed its fangs, and slammed forward!!
"Jingle Bell Bell -- !!"
At the same time, suddenly, a rapid alarm bell rang, which made the people in ambush behind them stunned, and they looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. Have you been discovered? Or is it a trap? What is this sound? Where did it come from?
"Bang la la-la-la--!!"
However, before they could react, they saw a strong jet of water suddenly erupt from the ceiling, enveloping them like a torrential downpour. Not only that, but almost at the same time, I saw that by the wall, the heavy iron door suddenly fell, and in the blink of an eye, they were completely separated from Rod and the others.
Not good!!!
Until this time, these people also realized that their whereabouts were likely to have been exposed, thinking of this, they no longer cared about anything, and soon, with the roar and shining sword light, the originally heavy fireproof iron door was cut open, and then three figures quickly rushed out of it. But these people soon discovered that there was more than one problem in front of them. As far as the eye can see, everything in front of them has been completely and completely closed, and the figures of Rhodes and the others have completely disappeared from their field of vision at this moment.
"It worked."
But at this moment, they didn't expect that in the shadow of another tall tower not far away, Rhodes was looking at the three figures who looked a little panicked with a little smile. He didn't know divination, so naturally it was impossible to know when these people would attack him, but Rhodes knew very well that the place he chose was actually very responsible for ambushes and sneak attacks. Therefore, if the other party really keeps staring at him as he expected, then it is absolutely impossible to let go of such an opportunity. That's why he chose such a place to launch a counteroffensive, and the facts proved that Rod's choice was correct. As expected, these guys hid and prepared to ambush and attack themselves. The only thing they fail is that they are not familiar with the facilities. Although the exterior was built in the shape of a tall tower that Karen was familiar with, the interior was completely arranged according to the tall buildings that Rhodes remembered, so for them. What Rhodes knew, they didn't. If it were in other places, they might not have encountered this kind of thing, but the architecture of Rhodes World is different from that of the Dragon Soul Continent, and the biggest difference is that in Rhodes' world, all buildings are standardized.
No matter how bizarre the shape of the building, even if it is the first time you walk into it, people should know that this high-rise building must have an elevator. Emergency exits, fire escapes, isolation iron gates and fire protection facilities. This is standardization, but there are no such rules in the Dragon Soul Continent, so the buildings here are more free and scattered, and it completely depends on the subjective will of the master to build what kind of secret passages, secret rooms, and the like. And for Rod and them, it was the first time they came here, so it was naturally impossible to know what mysteries were here. It is precisely in this state of mind that they choose to follow Rhodes. Because even if Rhodes wanted to take advantage of the terrain and do something, it would be difficult to pose a threat to them.
But they didn't expect that Rhodes was much more familiar with the situation here than they were, so they accidentally fell in love with Rhodes. Of course, they don't know that in Rhodes's world, all buildings have strict regulations, and what should be prepared and responded to when it happens. That's why Rhodes deliberately turned on the alarm bell and activated emergency measures to seal off the entire building. So even if they weren't behind Rhodes at the time, they would have been locked up in another place. Arguably. By the same time they followed Rhodes into here, they had already stepped into a cobweb, and any struggle would allow Rhodes to perceive their existence in the shortest possible time. No matter how well they covered it up before, it didn't mean anything in front of Rhodes at the moment.
In this way, the attack is ............ Wrong. The offense and defense finally swapped, and looking at the few dark shadows not far in front of him, Rhodes smiled proudly. Now they couldn't find themselves, and they couldn't follow him as they had done before. Before, Rhodes was completely defenseless, and now that he knows that there is such a group of people who are specifically looking for trouble, it is impossible for him to fall twice in the same place, right?
Thinking of this, Rod snorted, and then he turned around and disappeared silently into the dark shadows.
After trying to pull the two sides back to the same running line, Rod no longer paid attention to the three opponents, but took Xiao Wu Lori and Catherine to rush towards the destination. He didn't have time to waste on those three mysterious characters, and Rhodes had gone around in a big circle for the layout before. A lot of time was wasted, and now that the problem has been solved, it is not a good thing to continue like this. In fact, Rod is not completely without the intention of killing a horse pistol, but because Catherine can't fight, once the director makes a move, then it is equivalent to one less person than the other party. In this way, it is difficult to take advantage even if it is a fight. Therefore, Rod decisively sped up his speed and rushed towards the direction of the second spirit crystal.
"Boom, boom, boom!!"
Just when Rod and the others came to the location of the Spirit Crystal Tower, suddenly, there was a continuous roar and collapse sound in the distance again, and Rod frowned and looked towards the place where the sound came from. It was soon discovered that two more towers had collapsed, and not only that, but the brilliance emitted by the previous twelve spirit crystals was now only nine left. In other words, including Rhodes, there are already three spirit crystals that have been activated. I just don't know what the situation is with everyone other than my side. Hearing this voice, Xiao Wu Lori also pursed her lips, and then snorted softly.
"Here we go again, that's a ..............."
"Whoa――――――!!"
However, Xiao Wu Lori's words were not finished, only to see that above their heads, suddenly a gorgeous magic array unfolded instantly, followed by just a blink of an eye, and a halo shrouded Xiao Wu Lori's body like this, and the next moment she turned into a golden light. Suddenly rushed towards the magic array above.
"Oops!! Let's go!! ”
Seeing this scene, Rod's heart sank, and it seemed that his side was still a step slower after all. It looks like someone is still more advanced than himself who has activated this crystal. And what made him even more disturbing was that the little five Lori was actually chosen, so according to Catherine's scene before, I'm afraid that there is another little five Lori among the people who activate the crystal now. Originally, Rhodes also hoped that he would be able to reach his destination one step earlier, although it was said that after activating the crystal, no one would be imprisoned. But this kind of contest in the spiritual world was originally a battle in which the mouth cannon was better than the field battle. As long as the verbal kung fu is high enough, even if you don't have to use your hands, it is enough to make the other party obey............ Something seems to be wrong?
But now that Xiao Wu Lori has been teleported, Rod and Catherine naturally can't stand here to watch the play, so in the face of this sudden situation, Rod was just stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted, and then he quickly made a gesture to Catherine, and then pushed open the door in front of him and rushed into the tower. But. The moment Rhodes entered the tower, in front of his eyes, a scythe shining with cold light slashed head-on towards Rhodes's neck. If Rod doesn't react, then just a moment of effort is enough to make his head fall to the ground.
"Bell !!"
said that it was too late, and in the face of the scythe that suddenly appeared in front of him, Rod also reacted immediately. The long sword in his hand suddenly stirred upward, hitting the surface of the sickle impartially, and forcibly blocking the castration of the sickle. Not only that, but at the same time as blocking the opponent's attack. The sword in Rod's hand turned into a silver snake and tore forward. And with his movements, a figure wrapped in a black robe floated through the air like a ghost, dodging his attack.
Echone!
This time, Rod finally saw the true face of the other party, and at the same time, his heart sank. Echhorn had fought Rhodes directly on the outside before. Rhodes is very clear about her combat effectiveness, very strong. Not only that, but the weapon used by Echhorn was also tricky for Rhodes, the scythe was a strange weapon, and the angle of attack was not predictable. It had been tricky when Rhodes and Echhorn were facing each other outside, if it weren't for the indiscriminate bombardment from Labis. I'm afraid it's going to be even harder to deal with. And now, I finally have to face this Grim Reaper girl face to face here. This thought turned in his mind, and Rod didn't mean to stop in his hands, and after making contact with Echhorn, he immediately launched a new round of attacks against the Death Maiden in front of him. I saw that the silver-white sword in Rod's hand turned into lightning and stabbed at the girl's wide black cloak quickly, forcing her to retreat. In the face of Rod's attack, Echone also reacted quickly, only to see that she rotated the huge scythe in her hand, forming a solid shield, which was able to block Rod's attacks again and again. I only heard the sound of a few weapons clashing, accompanied by sparks, the figure of the Grim Reaper girl floated leisurely, and Rhodes also followed, without the intention of letting go at all.
"Catherine, you get on the elevator to the top floor! Go and help Little Five! What you should know about the use of elevators!! ”
Glancing around quickly, Rod didn't see the third person, so he also gave an order to Catherine decisively. Hearing Rod's order, Catherine hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and turned around and ran towards the elevator door on the first floor. For the elevator thing, Rod has also explained in detail to Xiao Wu Lori and Catherine, after all, in this place where flying is prohibited, if you want to reach the roof in the shortest possible time, you must use the elevator. Seeing that Catherine was about to leave, Echone chuckled and slashed at her with a scythe, trying to intercept the angel of light. But before her scythe could be slashed, Rhodes had already presciently blocked Catherine's face, and then he swung his sword again to block another attack by Éhoun. In the face of Rod blocking his attack again, Echone was not annoyed, on the contrary, she chuckled lightly, and the whole person floated away, but Rod could feel that her eyes were firmly locked on his body.
Not the ones before it!
Until this time, Rhodes also confirmed that the Horne in front of him was not one of those who had attacked him before. Although there is also an Ehorn in it, she gives Rhodes the feeling that she is eerie like an elusive ghost death, but the fighting style of this Ehhorn in front of him is a bit playful and light-hearted unique to a girl, and Rhodes is very sensitive in this regard, so he can be sure that the one who inspired this spirit crystal at the moment is definitely not the trio that sneaked up on him before.
However, no matter who they are, Rhodes has only one goal at the moment.
Defeat them and win. (To be continued......)
