This is also one of the advantages of the rebirth, and Roddy naturally knows how to make good use of it.
The door of the blacksmith shop opened, Roddy walked in, and soon took Nata out--the difference from before was that he had a box of goods in his hand.
He brought the goods to the other end of Hollier City. Roddy handed it to an old lady with wrinkles and wrote a letter for him. Then he took a basket of vegetables and returned from Campbell to the blacksmith shop in the trade zone. It took more than two hours to finish all this.
This puzzled Nata because she found that Roddy seemed to have only been a "Lei Feng" in the city in the morning and did nothing at all...
Nata couldn't understand what Roddy was doing. She wanted to ask, but she was reluctant to speak with a slight face. She had to endure a strong curiosity and stood silently behind him.
Roddy didn't care what she thought, because the total level was over 15, and at this time, Hollier City had many tasks that could provide experience, he chose to go back and forth with errands, easily got 800 experience, and then came to the largest hotel in the trade zone. He entered the door and found a remote location to sit down, opened the panel, and directly clicked "Upgrade".
[People Status Bar] shows that Roddy has finally reached "Demon Hunter Level 4", and two prompts appear in the record bar below, reminding Roddy to "jump" and "sprint" to level 2.
The remaining 550 experience is enough to upgrade skills, Roddy clicks it casually, so these two most commonly used mobile skills have new attributes:
【Trail Level 2】
Spend 15 energy points
Use: Jump 1-5 meters in any direction (lift 1 meter for the farthest range)
Cold-blooded: 15 seconds
【Running Level 2】
Spend 30 energy
Use: Increase the movement speed by 35% in 5 seconds (increase the speed increase by 5%)
Cooling: 10 seconds
The improvement of skills is not large, but the accumulated effect is still amazing. Roddy is already familiar with this, so he is familiar with everything. Sitting in this more famous hotel in Hollier City, there are still many people dining around, and the atmosphere is also lively. However, Nata's cold look still makes Roddy feel a little troubled...
"What do you want to eat?"
Nata tilted her head and hummed with slight slightest hint: "Whatever."
Roddy rolled his eyes. He rarely had a similar expression, but at this time he was obviously helpless. The restaurants in this period were different from modern times. There were not many dishes to choose from. Basically, it was ale, bread and broth made by the chef today. So Roddy threw two silver coins to the waiter and leaned on the wooden chair and closed his eyes to rest. It was just a "sharp environment" fighting posture, but he clearly heard the discussion not far away...
"…I have heard that the Duke personally received the mansion in front of the mansion. This style is really unprecedented!"
"It is said that many undead were killed, and Count Irving was cut off directly, killing hundreds of people!"
"I heard that he uses bows and arrows very well-"
"Shhh... don't you see that both of you are carrying bows over there?"
The conversation was silent for a moment, and then continued.
"In the past few days, I heard that there are more guys who come out to imitate after the bow. I just saw someone outside, carrying a basket of green leaves to run errands in Campbell. Haha... If that's really Captain Roddy, I'll twist my head off and play as a ball for you."
Roddy curled his lips, not interested in going over and kicking him in the head - the feeling of being discussed by someone by name was very unhappy. After thinking about it, he still reached out and placed the short bow behind him on the chair beside him.
After opening the taskbar casually, Roddy found that the words [Judgement of the Bone Throne] were no longer so bright red, but turned into "orange and red" color - this means that Roddy's level is approaching the "suitable level" for completing the task.
According to this calculation, the first phase of the entire [Judgment of the Throne of the Bone] task is probably a task that requires a total level of 25.
“There is not enough time…”
Roddy's eyes moved downward, looking at the prompt of the [147 days remaining], frowned slightly.
The waiter served warm ale and bread, and the meat and vegetables with soup didn't look good, but it was a pleasant thing to eat such food in winter - even Nata, who always had a tense face, would inadvertently show a satisfied expression when facing the hearty food...
Whether it is humans or wood elves, the people living at the bottom cherish this hard-earned stability. Roddy looked at everything in front of him and couldn't help but sigh silently: When war comes, how many people will starve to death in the cold winter because they can't eat?
Can you... really stop this?
*******
"No one can stop His Majesty Augustine's footsteps!"
Thousands of miles away, a hoarse roar echoed in the woods of the cold wind.
The Tasman Kingdom—or the name of "the Kingdom of the Dead"—was finally confirmed the action plan for the Kingdom of Karen this winter, and the person speaking at this time was the person in charge of the action assigned by His Majesty Augustine: Baron Bellom.
The gray-white skeleton war horse was riding under his crotch, and his cold armor made his originally dry body look a little wide. His gray-white pupils were filled with a fanatical light, showing his loyalty to His Majesty Augustine and... his cruelty to the enemy.
"Sir Baron, the intelligence agency over the Gondora Mountains confirmed that it was safe...we can set off."
Bellom's adjutant was a thin undead named Eck. He had a hole in his chin and spoke in an air-lost way—it looked quite funny.
"Your Majesty... is finally willing to take this step!"
The undead baron pulled the reins and looked up slightly, looking up at the mountain in front of him that surrounded the Tasman Kingdom. The eyes behind the cold helmet were filled with excitement: "Listen to my orders and move forward!"
Fifty carriages, two hundred undead soldiers, and with more than six necromancers, the group set out toward the border of the Karen Kingdom - but their purpose was not to point directly at the Karen Kingdom like Ansading.
What he followed was His Majesty Augustine's personal edict: looking for the manufacturing technology of "rechargeable crystals".
Obviously, Ansadin's failure had a series of chain reactions. For many consecutive days, the royal family of the Karen Kingdom had thrown diplomatic letters into the "Dead Sea Council Hall", causing an uproar in the parliament.
After carefully ambushing for seventeen years, once I returned to the pre-liberation, this is the true portrayal of the undead in this failure... Although His Majesty Augustine remained silent, his inner anger was not to mention. However, as a politician and ambitious man, no matter how much anger and personal emotions were, it would be under the heart. Although the Kingdom of Tasman and Karen will sooner or later break up, it is definitely not now.
So Augustine politely gave a reply letter, clearing his responsibility and apologizing softly.
Facing the strong man with ambition and strength at the top, no one would really think that the other party was "submitting" except for the royal family in Karen Kingdom.
The forbearance of the undead is something that ordinary people cannot imagine. Augustine has planned for more than a hundred years and has been waiting for such a long time. For Tasman's future, bent down at this moment, for him, it was just throwing a letter of invitation from the god of death at Karen...
When the "charged crystal" is obtained, who else can stop the deceased from the footsteps of the entire continent?
