Chapter 647 The City of Decisive Battle (V)
The explosions were connected, but from the sound, you could tell that the other party was not going upstairs. Rhode probably did not think of using the elevator at all. This is no wonder, if it weren't for the person who knew the elevator, he wouldn't have any interest in these two big iron gates, just like if it weren't for Rhode, Catherine and Little Loli wouldn't have thought of using the elevator. The people behind probably really planned to climb the hundreds of meters of high-rise buildings on their legs. When they heard the explosion before, Rhode was a little nervous, and now he also realized that this group of people didn't understand high technology at all, so it was impossible for them to go up and downstairs with the elevator. And they must have broken something during the battle just now, which made the elevator stop. In this way, even if they wanted to get the elevator, it wouldn't be possible to start it successfully.
"Let's go, get out of here quickly."
Thinking of this, Rhodes made a quick decision. He looked up at the floor of the elevator in front of him. High technology was good. After a while, two-thirds of them had already walked. The remaining one-third of them reached their destination. Therefore, Rhodes did not hesitate anymore, but immediately opened the elevator door in front of him. Fortunately, they were currently at the entrance of the elevator on the upper floor, so the three of them quickly ran out of the elevator, and then rushed towards the exit of the emergency passage under Rhodes' leadership. The rapid footsteps echoed in the quiet corridor, but at this moment, the danger originally hidden in the dark seemed to be awakened. They opened their eyes and looked at the prey rushing into their territory.
"Gugugugu..."
Just as the three of them rushed out of the elevator, a strange sound rang in Rhode's ears again. Soon, with the help of the "big light bulb" Catherine's light, Rhode clearly saw that in the darkness, the shadow began to condense again, gathered and turned into a cluster of strange matter. It was obvious that it seemed that only the elevator in this tower belonged to the "safe area". After leaving the elevator, Rhode and others began to "attract monsters".
"Let's go, don't worry about these guys! Don't fight with them! Keep moving forward and don't stop your own steps!"
Seeing Little Five Loli waving her long sword and planning to fight with the other party, Rhode also hurriedly issued an order. If it was normal, it would not be too late to defeat these guys. But the situation is different now. There are other people below, and he can hear the movement of the other party's battle. Once the fight starts, the other party can obviously detect the problem on his side. By that time, the situation will be much more complicated, so he grabbed Little Five Loli and ran towards the emergency exit quickly. Although the people below are still far away from them now, isn't this the tortoise and hare racing? No matter how fast the rabbit runs lazy, will it be chased by the turtle and turtle?
When he heard Rhode's words, Xiaowu Loli didn't say anything else, but quickly put away the long sword in her hand and took out a pack of potato chips and followed Rhode while walking. Seeing this scene, Rhode was still quite emotional in his heart. Don't look at the two teammates in his group, one is a foodie and fighting maniac, and the other is a non-violent and non-cooperating person. At least his advantage is still obedient, and it is not too much for pigs. Now Rhode hopes that the personality projection in other groups can be more pigs' teammates, and it would be even better if he could pull the other people's hind legs to death!
But it’s better to rely on yourself than to seek others in everything. Rhodes didn’t expect that the other party was as bad as his own luck. Each person had only three spiritual projection personalities at most. According to Rhodes’ experience, there was only one second-hand personality at most. Now, the two people who were following him to some extent... forget it. It would be better not to talk about this topic, but when he thinks about it, Rhodes felt frustrated.
"Don't do it, follow me, be careful! Don't make too much noise!"
In terms of stealth reconnaissance, Rhodes still has more experience than others. After all, the strict standard for the tactic of stabbing behind the back is to ensure that they are not discovered before reaching the destination, and Rhodes is naturally extremely familiar with this. But obviously the Little Five Loli and the others have no such experience. So Rhodes simply asked them not to take action, but rushed to the entrance of the emergency stairs first, and then ran up quickly. Faced with the black shadows that hindered him, he almost didn't do much entanglement. He just waved the long sword in his hand to separate it, and then pulled Little Five Loli and Catherine quickly flashed through the gap. For Rhodes, fighting was the most undesirable, especially in the situation in front of him.
"Swish swish swish swish!!"
The dazzling light of the sword transformed into one extremely dazzling and brilliant trace after another in the dark space, illuminating the eyes while tearing the deep darkness that condensed. However, the shadows of darkness did not give up. On the contrary, they were still twisted and wrapped around trying to restore to their original appearance. Rhode was used to the performance of these monsters. It was very difficult to defeat these guys completely, so he didn't care much about this at all. On the contrary, after tearing the bodies of those monsters, he ran straight upwards on the other party's body that had not yet recovered. Although the combat power of these shadow monsters is not weak, it is just better than nothing in front of Rhode.
Rhodes and others were not slow, and because at Rhodes' reminder, the little five loli did not rush straight like before, so there was still a little time left. Not too long, the three people had already arrived at the top floor. And the moment he walked onto the rooftop, Rhodes swept over without blinking. With his movements, the rooftop behind him collapsed. While the exit was closed, it also blocked the entangled shadow monsters. Until this time, Rhodes began to look around. As a matter of course, he went to find the spiritual crystal that made him and others come here for the first time. However, while seeing the spiritual crystal, Rhodes was not calm in an instant.
Before coming to the top floor, Rhodes' mind was full of the followers below, so he did not think carefully about the mental crystal. Now, he found that he had ignored a question that was taken for granted. First of all, these tall buildings were hundreds of meters high, and Rhodes stood on the ground and could actually see the light emitted by the spiritual crystal at the top of the tall building to illuminate the night sky. There were only two possibilities: either it was very big or it was very bright.
And now, the spiritual crystal in front of Rhodes is big and bright!
Its light is not dazzling. Even if Rhodes looked directly at the spiritual crystal in front of him, he would not feel anything uncomfortable. But its size made Rhodes depressed. This crystal itself is nearly seven or eight meters high, and looks like a cylindrical light bulb. Not to mention twelve of this thing, one Rhode can't bear it! This is not a problem of strength, it's just a matter of volume! But don't say, maybe this spiritual crystal will become smaller by itself?
With this idea in mind, Rhode also came to the spiritual crystal to knock and touch it, but unfortunately, no matter how he did it, the spiritual crystal did not change any other. It seemed that there was no reaction at all. Even if Rhode asked Little Five Loli and Catherine to touch it, there was no change in the end. Then this can only explain one thing, that is, the way he opened it here is wrong...
Where exactly is the problem?
Rhode has not found the answer to this question. He has carefully investigated the spiritual crystal around him. There is no barrier, and there is no magic circle to trigger. Rhode has not seen the switch buttons and other familiar in his memory, but he can also be sure that Karen put such a large spiritual crystal here and was definitely not as simple as teasing him. It is obvious that there must be some secret in this crystal that he has not discovered. Therefore, it has not been activated. Now Rhode's main task is to find this secret to avoid being taken first by others.
"What's going on with this thing? Do I want me to try it with a sword?"
Looking at the unresponsive spiritual crystal in front of him, Xiaowu Loli was the first to be able to bear it. She pulled out her long sword again, showing a look of eagerness to try. But this time, Rhode did not stop the little guy's actions. On the contrary, he frowned and was silent for a moment. Then nodded to the little guy. After getting Rhode's approval, Xiaowu Loli immediately showed an excited and proud look. She threw the snack bag he had finished was next to him. The next moment, Xiaowu Loli stretched out her hands to hold the long sword, and her whole person turned into a green hurricane. She rushed towards the spiritual crystal in front of her. The next moment, the sword in her hand, which was almost as long as the little guy's body, cut through the air and slashed heavily on the spiritual crystal.
"clang------!!"
Just as the little five loli's long sword cut the spiritual crystal, the spiritual crystal that originally radiated the shining light suddenly dimmed, followed by a sound that sounded like a bell ringing. With this sound, a halo burst out from the cylindrical body of the spiritual crystal, and then the entire top floor was wrapped in it by a barrier shining with light! Soon, a dazzling array emerged from it and began to slowly rotate.
"You guys are careful!"
Seeing this scene, Rhode was also shocked. He held the sword tightly in his right hand and frowned and stared at the scene in front of him. The little five loli was naturally shocked. Although she was a reckless foodie, she was not a fool. When she saw this scene, she felt that something must be wrong. Therefore, the little guy hurriedly raised his sword, leaned against Rhode, and looked around vigilantly. But at this moment, Rhode and Lhode Little Loli were surprised to find a very serious problem--that was that with the activation of the magic circle, a strange force suddenly appeared out of thin air, imprisoning the bodies of the two people!
What's going on?
Rhode widened his eyes in surprise, looking at the magic runes surrounding his limbs and body, constantly rotating. This is obviously a kind of imprisonment magic. Could it be a trap? Or a countermeasure? Is it used to deal with those who are trying to destroy the spiritual crystal? Logically speaking, this is not impossible. But………
"Mr. Rod? What's wrong with you?"
But not everyone was imprisoned. At this moment, Catherine was still standing there, looking at the two people entangled by the imprisoned magic, and her face clearly showed a panic expression. The most interesting thing was that even so, her hands were still holding the various snacks and lollipops that Xiaowu Loli had scooped out from the refrigerator below. It was quite funny with the light angel's expression that looked like a discarded puppy. But unfortunately, now both Rhodes and Xiaowu Loli obviously did not feel like laughing.
"Are you okay? Catherine, be careful. Here……………”
"Swish!!"
Before Rhode could finish his words, he heard a light sound, followed by a white light flashing. The next moment, a figure surrounded by golden light as Katherine appeared in front of the three of them. She held the sword in her hand and looked around with a serious expression. It seemed that she had just experienced a fierce battle. At the same time as she saw her, Rod and Little Loli immediately recognized that the one in front of her was also Katherine.
However, although they were all light angels, there was still a difference between the two Catherines. The armor worn by the light angel who was with Rhodes and others was more similar to a mixture of leather and cloth armor. Moreover, she could be said to be unarmed. Rhodes and Little Loli had never seen any traces of weapons and equipment on her body. In addition, her expression that was melancholy like a literary young woman at any time and anywhere was simply easy to recognize. And suddenly, she was so mellow that she could not recognize.
The Catherine who appeared in front of them was completely different. She was wearing a platinum armor of a war angel like Celia, and holding a long sword shining with glory in her hand, and her whole body was filled with a solemn aura. This was so sharply contrasted with the silly and cute guy standing next to her snacks. Even if the two people looked exactly the same, just looking at their own temperaments was enough to distinguish who was the two light angels.
Another light angel was obviously surprised at the sudden appearance here. Like Rhodes and the others, she first looked around vigilantly, stayed on Rhodes and Little Five Loli for a moment, then frowned and looked at the glowing cylinder in front of her. It was obvious that this light angel had also heard Karen's radio. Therefore, she recognized what was in front of her immediately.
"Spiritual Crystal?"
