It's midday, outside Hollier.

Speaking of which, Francis sent a lot of cavalry outside the city to try to "struggle" after the worst, but for the largest central city in the territory of Evata, it is difficult to intercept and check all the people entering the city outside the city unless there are more than 1,000 people - they dare not intercept at the city gate, because Francis does not have the courage and power.

So Roddy easily took Sally around a few patrols and walked her into the city that he had imagined had long been destroyed.

The scenes of the fall of the city and the burning of the sky in the past still seem to be vivid, but when you look at it, the peaceful scene forms a strong contrast with the memory. He looked up at the wall more than ten meters high, and couldn't help but feel some emotion in his heart.

Sally thought that this was his surprise when he first came to this magnificent city, but there was a thought that what this guy was thinking about at this time was the player's argument post about the strengthening of the city's defenses.

Walking through the first major city in the area where players were novice at the beginning, Roddy knew more about this place than Sally had imagined. As the capital of the territory of Ivota - this is the political and economic center of the northwest of the empire, the largest auction house, the largest number of blacksmith shops, the most precious raw materials, it can be said that everything is here, but for Roddy at this moment, coming to Holier City... Actually, it's not too suitable.

Because according to the level distribution, border villages such as Nolan, Vic, and Finks belong to the range of players at level 1-5, and then players will receive a series of quests to guide them to areas like Kig Town, upgrade to level 5-10, and then change classes after reaching level 10, and go to strongholds and cities according to the advice of career mentors. Among them, Concedon Fortress is a mission area that can only be involved at a total level of 10-15, while Hollier City, which is the highest level city, can only receive most of the missions at a total level of 20 or above.

In other words, it is very difficult for Roddy to make any profit in Houllier City right now, and although there are some low-level missions here, it is really not very helpful for him.

Unconsciously walked into the city, this tortuous journey is also coming to an end at this time, although I want to say that there is no banquet in the world, but Luo Di thought about it, and felt that this great escape is really not a "banquet", and finally stopped his body, turned around, and wanted to tell Sally to say softly: "The disguise on the body can be wiped off with hot water, and the color of the hair needs to be soaked for a while, in fact... That's all I can do. ”

He wanted to say something appropriate to the situation, but Roddy didn't say anything else in the end, he scratched his head, and somehow didn't dare to look at Sally.

"Well... I got it. And also... You said you would meet me again before you left? ”

Sally struggled to control her emotions, her lips trembling slightly, but there seemed to be nothing unusual in her words.

Roddy nodded, just nodded, but didn't say the time and place.

Without waiting for Sally to say anything more, he took a step back, smiled at the girl who had been so far away from home alone for the first time, and whispered, "I did my duty, Francis failed to kill you, and now... It's up to you. ”

Sally wanted to answer something, but at this moment someone on the side of the road inadvertently bumped her shoulder, and the thin girl staggered a step, and when she looked up again, she found that there was no trace of Roddy in front of her.

The unconcealable loss filled her heart for a moment, and Sally looked around helplessly, trying to find the figure that could bring her a sense of security, but in the end, she saw the pure white roof not far away.

It was the monastery of the "Rosicrucian" Temple, the largest religious institution in the city of Holier.

Sally took a deep breath, thinking back to the suffering and danger she and Roddy had endured along the way, and thinking of the doomed old Gerson and the others, her face gradually became gloomy.

Fingers clenched, and the absolutely sane and confident Sally seemed to reappear at this moment.

Gently removing her hood, Sally walked straight towards the convent of the "Rosicrucifix", she stopped in front of the tall white temple church, gently washed off the camouflage on her face with the water of the Trevi Fountain, and then strode towards the apse that only the clergy of the monastery could enter, under the astonished eyes of the guards.

Walking on another street, Luo Di's mood should be said to be a little melancholy, but this feeling is similar to when he was separated from the instructor after more than ten days of military training when he was a child, and his heart was a little sad, but there was not too much stumbling.

The allusion to "destined to be lonely for a lifetime" is not always a joke, and Roddy's "intellectual" side is so strong that the original sensibility in his mind is suppressed within five or six minutes of Sally's departure.

Thinking about the original plan, Roddy felt that he had achieved the basic goal of "saving Sally", although he accompanied her on such a thrilling journey, but the harvest was really rich.

After being a player for so many years, he understands that the most profound thing is that "it is better to ask for others than for yourself" - to be honest, he did not put all his hopes on Sally. Improving one's status and power is the "right way" pursued by Luodi.

Let's put it mildly... If he had the title of Duke or the Archbishop of the Rosicrucian Temple, where would he have to risk his life these days?

Of course, it's easy to say, if you want to have any potential, you need to go all out. Luo Di knows very well that if he wants to have a say in this land, the first thing he needs is the level - upgrading the level is a must be done; The second is equipment, so that you have a better chance of surviving in this troubled world; The next point is career planning. The military line, the aristocratic line, the vagabond route, or the ecclesiastical route?

"Ripp" is not just a game where a person can dominate with high-level and superb equipment, every player who wants to become strong must understand what power they need to rely on.

Roddy also served in the army system of Roussiflon, and later when he was a life player, he also took the salary of a viscount in Hollier City to make a living by making leather and bows, and after turning to a PVP ranger, he traveled alone in the world for a long time, and after returning to his homeland, he joined the "rebel army" in the turbulent war, and fought until the last of the year.

He has many titles, such as "Captain of the Legion", "Lone Wanderer", "Master Leather Maker", "Master Bow Maker", etc., the highest of which is "Shadow Hunter", which gives him three active skills and two passive skills, and increases agility and strength by 15%.

Each person can "light up" three titles at the same time, with the effects they come with to help the player cope with the current scenario, changing the cooldown of the title to 24 hours.

Roddy is well aware of the huge impact that different career paths and "titles" can have on a player, for example, the safest way for him to stay in the Rousifron Scout Formation, and work his way up the ladder with merit, and when he has the title of "Major", the convenience brought by the title is that he can have the right to transfer the "Cavalry Squad", and at some point, such a skill is very tempting for the Ranger.

But now that I think about it, these are unrealistic, the "title" is something that needs to be considered after level 10, and what Roddy urgently needs now is the level and equipment, so he immediately came to the leather goods shop in Holier City with the experience in his memory, sold a few blue Kemera beast scales, and successfully obtained a rich return of 3 gold coins and 24 silver coins.

This is definitely a windfall, because Roddy can't use a single gold coin to buy a green suit with attributes at this stage, but he quickly spent two of the gold coins.

These two gold coins were used to purchase a number of materials and tools—the finest magic cotton thread, Mithril ingots, a set of leather-making tools, all kinds of wood, colorful potions, and more.

The equipment that Roddy had to make was a full-body suit, and the number of Kemera beast scales used was unusually large, and he knew that if he casually handed over these precious materials to those unreliable leather makers, not to mention how much they were embezzled privately, once the news leaked, he would definitely become the focus of the city... So now he has to go through these steps on his own.

Fortunately, Roddy, who had worked as a leather maker before, did not have a headache, and his former title was "leather master", so it was natural to do this kind of work now.

This is another advantage of Roddy at the moment, although his life deputy is not lit, but because of his memory, it is almost equivalent to retaining most of the level of the former ranger.

So after finding a hidden inn, Roddy threw fifteen silver coins to the boss, locked himself in his room, and silently began his leather armor making.

Once in this state of work, Roddy seemed to return to the days of tedious and monotonous labor in order to earn a living, and for fifteen days, Roddy barely came out of this room a few times, and even ate three meals a day in the house—during which he sent a letter to Nolan Village, and it was kind of a peace report to those who had been comrades-in-arms for a few days, but there was no superfluous information in the contents, and there was not even a mention of the date of his return.

And in these fifteen days, several small events also occurred in Holier City.

The first incident occurred the day after Roddy entered the inn and closed the doors.

The guards of the "Rosicrist" changed from their usual state of quietly guarding the surrounding of the church, and suddenly hundreds of temple guards were dispatched, armed with blessed blades, to stand by the main road of Hollier, and open a direct road to the city square.

Bishop Benjamin walked out of the church and came to the town square in person, where he gave his second lecture of the year with great enthusiasm.

His prestige was so great in the northwestern part of the kingdom that believers knelt down and kissed him on the ground he walked. What no one expected was that the Bishop, who was supposed to preach the doctrine in the fall of this year, would have carried out this ceremony in advance, and at the end of the lecture he himself announced... Duke of Angmar's daughter - Sally? Roussifron is now the new generation of "priest candidates" chosen by the "Rosicrucian" sect in the city of Holier.

This was explosive news for the nobles and commoners of Holier City, because the temple had always only selected "nuns" or "monks", to put it bluntly, young people with holy arts talents, and it was almost certain that Sally would become a member of the sect, but no one would have thought that it would be so high-profile.

The "priest" is the upper level of the "monk", and in a sense, this level is the starting point of the regular clergy. And the leap from a "monk" to a "priest" is very difficult, and it can even be said that one in a hundred. Many people have spent their entire lives silently dedicating their allegiance to the temple without going any further, but now the sudden announcement by the Bishop that Sally has become a "candidate priest" already means that her future position in the "Rosicrucifixion" will definitely be unprecedented.

With the protection of the "Rosicrucise" Temple, Sally's status in the Rusifron family has instantly equaled or even slightly exceeded that of her quasi-"elementalist" brother. And the deterrent effect brought by this is one of the important bargaining chips in the future with the other party.

At this point, Sally also had direct access to the temple system to study and further her studies.

This was the first, and second, entry of Count Francis.
