The cold wind blew across the grass and made a slight sound. The sun rose from the horizon again, heralding the arrival of a new day.

“Woo……”

Lijie opened her eyes.

The first thing that caught my eye was the dense golden light spots. She blinked her eyes and then saw clearly that the sunlight flashed from the leaves by the window. A faint fragrance came from the fluffy and soft bed. The girl narrowed her eyes and held the pillow in her hand. After a while, she climbed up on the bed with some reluctance.

Finally, I have my own home.

Looking at the slightly simple but very warm little room in front of her, Lijie couldn't help but feel excited. She never thought that she would have a fixed residence, but now it has become a reality. This means that when she comes back, she will no longer have to live in the guest room of the simple mercenary association or the guest room of the tavern, nor will she have to worry about where to place the things she likes as before. Now, she has her own room and her own home.

On the first night after entering this room, Lijie was lying on the bed excitedly tossing and turning, and she didn't fall asleep all night. In the past few days, she liked this place more and more and began to devote herself to it. The originally clean room was cleaned and cleaned by Lijie, and she also brought a few small flowers in a vase to decorate it.

"Um…………"

The girl raised her hands high and stretched her waist. Then she changed her clothes, washed them a little, and walked out of the room. Now in the stronghold, Lijie is responsible for the dual responsibilities of the housekeeper and the maid. Of course, having her own home is not all good. Now the food cannot be waited like in a tavern, but must be done by herself. And she must also do it by herself. Although Rhodes also thought of hiring a few servants to clean up, they are now short of money and can only make it.

I don't know if it's because people are feeling refreshed when they are happy, but Lijie feels refreshed after waking up. Although she has been working hard with Rod yesterday, she is not tired at all.

Speaking of which, what happened to Rhodes?

After sorting out his clothes, Lijie came to Rhode's door and knocked on the door.

"Mr. Rhode?"

No response.

Not here?

Lijie tilted her head in confusion and thought for a while. She knocked on the door again, but still received no response.

And just then, a bird's song suddenly came from outside the window.

After following Rhode for so many days, Lijie was naturally very familiar with this. This was the sound of the bird of souls. So the girl quickly walked to the window and looked out the window. Soon, she saw Rhode.

He was standing quietly in the weed garden, raising his right hand, and in front of his right hand, the green bird was spreading its wings and sweeping forward quickly, and a powerful airflow broke out from behind it, and even a deep gully appeared on the weed grass.

Just after the green bird flew out, Rhode suddenly made a gesture, and the next moment, the originally violent whirlwind suddenly changed. For the burning fire, it rushed forward with great momentum. The scattered flames quickly condensed and gathered, passing a clear arc in the air, and then shot towards Rhode. When Rhode was about to be swallowed by the surging waves of flames, the bright red suddenly faded away, and a white sword shining with bright light broke out from it.

"Swish!!!"

The sword energy swept past, and the grass leaves were cut off, flying all over the sky under the action of a whirlwind, burning under the scorching energy. When they turned into bits of dust and fell on the ground, within three meters centered on Rhodes, it had become a bare wasteland.

"Mr. Rhodes."

Lijie shouted until she saw Rhode put away her sword.

"Lijie?"

Hearing the girl's call, Rhode raised his head, looked in the sound, and then nodded to her, as a greeting.

"Good morning."

"Good morning, sir."

Speaking of this, Lijie was a little embarrassed. Although according to the rules, she should call him the leader, but she always feels embarrassed when they are so close. Moreover, in Lijie's heart, her leader is still Carter. Now she can't call Rhode the leader very calmly. But fortunately, Rhode doesn't seem to mind these trivial matters. After Lijie apologized to him very frankly, he also accepted this statement.

What a perfect man.

Looking at Rhode in front of him, Lijie couldn't help but feel a beating in her heart. She was young and handsome (or beautiful), calm and steady, and she didn't expect that he would work so hard. A man like this is definitely the best ideal in the hearts of all women. Of course, I have to admit that he is sometimes quite arbitrary, but this actually enhances a bit of the charm of a man.

If you can...

Thinking of this, Lijie was shocked, and then she shook her head quickly. Then she looked at Rhode who had already walked to her and handed out a towel.

"Mr. Rod, will that old gentleman really come?"

Perhaps to hide her embarrassment, Lijie quickly changed the subject. Although Lijie has been here for a long time and has met Old Walker many times, she didn't know that the old man had an unusual life experience. But it was obvious that Rhode seemed to know these things very well. Lijie was also used to Rhode's little secrets and did not ask.

"I don't know either."

After taking the towel and wiping the sweat beads on his forehead, Rhode quickly gave an ambiguous answer.

"I have done everything I can do, and it depends on him next. If he has such a little determination, then I think he will come. Of course, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come. Our plan will not change."

Rhodes's speech was as direct and calm as ever, and he seemed to have no intention of being questioned, let alone refuting it.

"I hope you are fully prepared. Lijie and Pavel Cemetery is a very dangerous place. If only the two of us go, the danger factor will increase greatly. By that time, the situation may be more difficult than when in Mist Town."

"Yes, I get it, Mr. Rhodes, I'll be ready."

"Very good, then I'll go back first, breakfast...the same way."

"OK."

Since moving into the stronghold, the living habits of Rod and Lijie have also changed. Because they didn't have much money, Rod did not build a restaurant at the beginning. Therefore, the current three meals a day are basically solved in Rhode's study. They have become accustomed to this kind of life. I have to say that habits are really terrible.

Lijie quickly went to make breakfast, and after returning to her study on the second floor, Rhode began to think about his next plan.

Even if it is called a "walking library", Rhodes cannot completely recall every detail of the task. What he is doing now is to record the possible dangers in Pavel Cemetery one by one, and then make targeted arrangements. After all, if he is lucky this time, there are three people, and if he is not good, only two people will complete the task. Many players' ideas and tactics must be changed.

To be able to sit in the position of the president of the First Guild of Dragon Soul Continent, Rhodes is not just as simple as his talent. His hard work and meticulous observations, timely adjustments and predictions are equally important. This is why when many people are still at a loss when facing the boss, Rhodes has led his team to win the first kill and achievement cleanly like chopping melons and vegetables.

Details determine success or failure, which is Rhodes' consistent policy.

Just as Rhode was concentrating on the specific situation and threats of the cemetery, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.

Who is it?

Although the other party was just knocking on the door on the first floor, Rhode's perception had reached a very sensitive level. He quickly noticed someone coming. After thinking about it, Rhode finally put down the pen in his hand and walked out. Could it be that Old Walker was really cursed and clicked through after he had sweared? He came to the door so early? This is really rare.

Although he had this idea, when Rhode opened the door, he realized that there was still a difference between reality and his imagination.

At this moment, the one standing in front of Rhodes was not the down-and-out old mercenary, but Hank from the Mercenary Association!

What is he here to do?

Rhode looked at Uncle Hank with a somewhat awkward smile in a strange way, then set his eyes behind him, and there was a man wrapped in a cloak. Although he could not see his appearance, he should be a woman from his figure.

What's going on?

"Uncle Hank, are you asking me for something?"

"Yes, Mr. Rhode, I wonder if I can go in and talk about this?"

"sure."

Rhode nodded and then welcomed the two of them in.

I have to say that the hall in front of him lit up the old Hank's eyes. In fact, before coming, he imagined how depressed the stronghold of this mercenary group with only two people would be. However, looking at the clean, tidy, bright, spacious and with a bit of majestic hall, Hank immediately overturned his previous imagination. And his eyes looked at Rhodes were a little amazed. Although Old Hank had never entered this haunted house, he also knew that a terrible old house that had been abandoned for many years and had even died of many people would definitely not be like this.

How did this young man do it?

At this time, the old Hank finally developed a keen interest in Rhodes. He had worked in the Mercenary Association for so many years and had met all kinds of people, but he had never seen people like Rhodes. On the surface, he did not seem to be much different from other young people, but now it seems... his judgment is not correct.

"Is there anything wrong with you coming to me? Uncle Hank?"

After inviting the two to take their seats, Rhode asked, and at the same time he glanced at the woman next to him. He was sure that the reason why Hank came to him this time was that what should be related to this woman?

Sure enough, in the face of Rhode's inquiry, Hank showed an embarrassing smile, then he nodded and spoke.

"That's right, Rod. This lady... wants to join your mercenary group."
