The sword light flashed...

The soul power condensed to the extreme flew up and down like a sickle of the god of death. The mercenaries were helpless in the face of the cold sword. They stared at the upcoming death in fear and struggled desperately, but all this was meaningless. With the passing of death, the mercenaries' bodies fell down like harvested wheat. For a moment, screams and splashed blood became the main theme of the entire space.

Carmen stared blankly at everything in front of him. At this moment, he could no longer be interested in struggling and regretting. His mind was blank. He couldn't even understand why it turned out like this, but why did he have to understand it? He had failed, and it seemed...... He would die here.

This was Carmen's last thought. At this moment, a dazzling golden light penetrated his body from behind, tearing his chest and flying forward.

Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief.

He put down his sword and felt a little dizzy. In order to completely eliminate the enemy at one time, he condensed all the remaining soul powers. At this moment, he did not even have much soul power to continue to support the existence of summoning elves. However, Rhode was not worried, there was no threat here at the moment.

Probably not.

A dazzling golden light flashed by.

Rhode suddenly tensed his nerves, he quickly raised his head and looked ahead. At this moment, he saw an arrow condensed by golden light attacking him quickly. The silver-white light blade that condensed Rhode's entire power could not even be blocked. Rhode only felt a flash in front of him, and then the sword light blade he had released had completely dissipated. At the same time, the arrow shining with golden light had already arrived in Rhode's chest.

At this moment, Rhode felt cold all over his body.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment. He stared at the golden arrow tightly and watched it fly towards his chest.

But Rhodes was not unresponsive.

The experience accumulated in countless battles with players and pks immediately played a role. Although Rhode had no idea about anything at the moment, his body had instinctively raised his sword and blocked him. At the same time, his left hand retreated, and a black card immediately appeared on his chest.

The figure of the Centaur Knight disappeared instantly and then reappeared in front of Rhodes, less than a second during this period, but for Rhodes, this was already the limit that he could achieve under his instinct.

And at this moment, the golden arrow passed through the virtual image of the centaur and hit the sword of the bright red sword heavily.

“!!!”

Rhode only felt his body tremble, as if a pair of invisible big hands were tearing his ** and soul hard. His eyes were blank, and he could not hear anything in his ears. The teeth could not collide because of the violent vibration, and the strong impact spread from his chest. For a moment, Rhode even felt that his body had completely disappeared, and he could not even feel any feeling that human beings should have... And the only thing he could do was to hold the long sword tightly and insist on resisting this inexplicable sudden attack.

I don't know how long it took, maybe several hours, or maybe only a few minutes later. Rod saw everything in front of him again.

The hazy and blurred vision gradually became clear. It was not until this time that Rhodes clearly saw that it was the ceiling of the Hall of Mysteries. At this moment, this once mysterious and beautiful room had become dilapidated, and the mysterious runes carved on the walls had become meaningless broken bricks and tiles.

What happened?

Rhode shook his head and tried to stand up, but then he couldn't help but moan and lay down again - the severe pain from his chest made him unable to do anything. Even if he didn't have to look down, Rhode could guess that several ribs on his chest had broken.

Not only that, he also found that his right hand was completely distorted, bent in a direction that was enough to make people breathe. His clothes were completely torn apart, and his right hand had split from his fingers to his elbows, and his flesh and blood were turned out inside. This was a normal manifestation after ** could not bear the strong force.

Rhode turned his head and looked around. Then he was surprised to find that he was not lying on the ground, but was embedded in the wall, and he lay backwards. Seeing this scene, Rhode couldn't help but feel a cold sweat behind him. He had never been so grateful for him. Nan knew very well how this happened. The heavy pressure brought by the powerful impact force piled him up on the wall. If it weren't for his non-human bloodline that strengthened his physique, with the body of Rhodes' original earthling, he could be sure that he had definitely turned into a fuzzy piece of flesh and blood-filled mud on earth. After all, Rhodes did not have the confidence that he could be run over by a big truck on earth.

There were corpses everywhere, and none of the mercenaries survived. Anne leaned against the other side. From her ups and downs, it could be seen that the girl was still alive and had just fainted. Celia and the Centaur Knight had long disappeared, which was normal. After the summoner lost consciousness, the summoning object would disappear.

What's going on?

Rhode shook his head and began to sort out the information. He first looked at his waist, where the space luggage was still there, and no one took it away. No other mercenaries were seen around him. Rhode frowned and was a little incomprehensible to the scene in front of him. He had thought that this was done by those mercenaries. Perhaps they did not have strong power, but some magic props could do the same thing. However, this possibility was too small. He felt that it was impossible to have such power with the ability of the Diamond Mercenary Group. Moreover, since the other party could easily break his sword light, it means that he should be able to survive. But now, there is nothing here. He did not see the winner, and he was not tied up or imprisoned. This means that this possibility does not exist.

So, they accidentally triggered what mechanism hidden here during the battle?

Rhode shook his head, feeling that this guess was also unreliable. He knew very well here that there was no mechanism. And on the other hand, if there was really any mechanism, it must have existed to protect the Mystery Ball. As a result, he did not trigger the Mystery Ball, but instead activated it later? You must know that if it weren't for the guys from the Diamond Mercenary Group, he would have left after he got the things. Was he still standing here stupidly waiting to be beaten? Is this mechanism natural?

The only reason why Rhodes accepted was that maybe someone was following them and took the opportunity to kill them. This guess was the most reasonable, because Rhodes remained vigilant all the way and did not notice that someone was following. If the other party could conceal his perception, it would be stronger than him, an existence stronger than him, and even a sneak attack. Rhodes was lucky to not die.

But the result in front of him does not support Rhode's idea. If the other party really has this idea, then he should have encountered the fate of either being killed or being captured now, but he is still lying here, half dead. If the other party leaves immediately after taking action, then at least he must check his life and death before leaving.

And for some reason, Rhode always felt that the other party did not seem to have the intention to kill him.

So what exactly does this mean?

Rhode thought about it, shook his head, and ignored it. Anyway, it was already like this, and there was nothing he could guess.

And at this moment he heard a low moan, and then Rhode saw Anne shaking her head and slowly stood up.

"Woo...what the hell is going on...ah! Leader!"

Anne, who came back from the dizziness, soon noticed that Rhodes changed her face, jumped up in scream, and then ran to Rhodes quickly, staring at the man in front of her with a surprised expression.

"You're injured?!"

Looking at the flesh that was opened on Rhode's chest and arms, Anne asked in surprise. Since she came to the Starlight Mercenary Group, she had never seen Rhode be injured. The scene in front of her surprised the girl, and her reaction was also very fast. After asking Rhode, Anne immediately raised her shield and turned around to block Rhode's face and looked around vigilantly, but she found nothing.

"No need to watch it, I think there should be no threat."

Rhode stopped Anne's actions, he looked around again, and saw nothing. At this moment, the originally serious wound began to heal quickly, and he was able to start acting again. Only then did Rhode struggle to break free from the wall, then he stood in the center of the Hall of Mysteries, thought for a moment, and then shook his head - he still couldn't understand what was going on, but at least he could be sure that he was safe now.

"Let's go, Anne, remember to take all the things we need on the way back."

After a moment, the figures of the two disappeared from the Hall of Mystery, and the silence returned to the previous place. Dozens of corpses fell silently on the ground without any sound.

At this moment, the light shines.

"I still don't understand, Miss, why did you suddenly attack him?"

The old man walked out of the void and asked in confusion while touching the long white beard on his chin.

"Because I suddenly wanted to do this."

Accompanied by a string of laughter like wind chimes, the girl's figure also appeared here again. She carefully opened her arms and avoided the corpses as if she was dancing, with a soft, happy and joyful smile on her face.

"Real beauty should be a colorful thing that can survive under any circumstances. Fragile glass-like art is indeed worthy of pity, but lacks the qualities of being respected. I just suddenly want to see if the gems like flowers in June can withstand the test of living."

“Haa……”

Facing the girl's answer, the old man shook his head and sighed, stretched out his right hand to hold his forehead.

"So you have to use the 'Arrow of Holy Light to deal with him? Miss, it's not me that if it were an ordinary person, ninety percent of them will be dead now... What if this gentleman...... What are you going to do?"

"I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know the importance, teacher."

The girl smirked and whispered her body gracefully, jumping to the center of the Hall of Mysteries.

"If he really can't stand my test, then it would be a pity. Losing his collection is certainly worth sighing... But the brilliance of beauty in the moment of withering will become the part that will last forever in my memory... It's not bad, what do you think? Teacher?"

Facing the girl's replies, the old man said nothing. He leaned on a wooden stick and then looked to the center of the Mystery Hall.

"But is this OK? Let them get the Mystery Ball?"

"What's wrong with it? Those who work hard must receive rewards, but I have clear rewards and punishments."

Speaking of this, the girl stopped, then she looked around, raised her eyebrows, and showed a trace of disapproval in her eyes.

"But the outcome of the loser is a different matter. It is enough to convict them of treason for the sake of their courage to be blinded by rewards and try to smuggle something as valuable as the Mystery Ball to the Land of Light. But since Mr. Rhodes executed the sentence on my behalf, I have nothing to complain about."

Speaking of this, the girl snorted softly, and then a circle of silver sacred flames immediately broke out from under her feet, instantly sweeping across the entire Hall of Mysteries. When the flames disappeared again, there was no one here.
