"Wait..."
Just as rod was talking to Ender, an untimely voice interrupted several people's conversation.
Inavin's words reached rod's ears. He looked puzzled and asked, "I've heard so much from you, but there's another doubt. Who is rod?"
On one side, berry couldn't help reaching out and holding his forehead. The corners of the swordsman's mouth also drew and said, "you don't have to worry about this. You just need to know that I will protect your life."
With the conversation of several people, the pale gold portal quickly opened under the guidance of the advanced space ring. Ender greeted others and sent them into an absolutely safe independent space under his reluctant gaze.
Inavin, who didn't understand what happened to FA, followed those people with rod's sign. If rod wants to maintain the effectiveness of becoming the king of mercenaries, he must ensure that the task publisher, that is, inavin, will not die under any circumstances. The space in the ring can undoubtedly ensure this.
Put away the ring and the space gem connected with it, and rod put his attention on the few people left next to him. At this time, he seemed to find something and couldn't help turning his side.
"Lord rod..."
Halfway through Ender's words, rod interrupted him: "someone's coming."
Berry was stunned by rod's hint. This is the evacuation site she had selected in advance. The news is very secret. It should be impossible for others to know.
"This is one of the hiding places left by the Qizhen business group in advance. Any trace that can prove that someone has been here should be reported at the first time."
A powerful voice of words reached Rhode, and rod felt familiar with it, as if he had heard it not long ago.
According to his reputation, rod found a mercenary with a scar on his face. He was accompanied by some people. If rod remembered correctly, that person was one of the members of the shadow mercenary regiment defeated by him in the mercenary assessment.
Aware of the feeling of peeping from the distance, the man felt a tight heart, stopped his steps for the first time and found rod and his party left in the distance.
"Brother, we found those people..." beside him, a slightly emaciated mercenary with injuries immediately reported.
"It's up to you to say?" After hearing his report, the scar mercenary couldn't help staring at him, and then stared at the swordsmen in the distance again.
"Are you looking for us?" After seeing several people in the distance, the swordsman came forward and asked slowly, releasing suffocating pressure.
In the face of the terrible pressure released by the swordsman, the scar mercenary was almost out of breath. He quickly explained, "Lord elot, we are all your losers. How dare we bother you again? We're here because someone wants to see you."
Rod showed an interested look. These people in front of him were not pure mercenaries. They belonged to the identity of mercenaries, more like their disguise. Members of the thieves guild will not show their identity on a large scale. Doing so is the same as seeking death. Thieves and robbers are a cover for their identity, including the mercenaries in front of them.
"I'm here now. Who wants to see me?" Rod asked slowly.
"I can't disclose the information of that person. Please go there in person. Maybe you can find out." With that, the scar mercenary tore open a magic scroll and a dark portal appeared in front of him.
"Is that... The door of the shadow?" On one side, Ender seemed to find something, and immediately showed an alert look. "I've heard the rumors of the shadow gate. Such a portal leads to the shadow plane full of crisis. They don't have any good intentions."
With his extraordinary insight, Ender recognized the uniqueness of the portal in front of him and quickly reminded rod.
Rod did not take this point to heart. No matter how intelligent ander was, he would not guess his relationship with the thieves guild. For him, the opposite side of the portal is not a dangerous place, but an absolutely safe place.
"Let's go." Rod didn't explain anything, but said faintly.
Ender was slightly stunned, but considering the current situation, he reluctantly approached the shadow portal.
"Wait... They can't go there. That man is looking for you." Aside, the scar mercenary seemed to find something and hurried to remind him.
"I'll make it clear to the man. Or do you want to stop me?"
From the swordsman, I felt the pressure almost to solidify into substance. The scar mercenary dared not say anything, and finally made way for several people to pass smoothly.
Through the dark portal, the nearby light dimmed and remained barely visible. They reached the distant shadow level.
Until the portal was completely closed, rod also determined that there was no one behind him, and then raised his hand to open a bright gold portal.
"Go back to Sao city first. This is not where you should come."
Although the members of the shadow mercenary regiment belong to the thieves guild, rod can't guarantee that they won't divulge information. Therefore, he waited until he came to the shadow plane, which opened the door of different dimensions and sent them back to Sao city.
Ender didn't want to stay in the dangerous shadow plane. Even the Sao city ruled by the necromancer was much better than here. He hurried into the portal, and berry looked at rod and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but finally he didn't say a word and disappeared in the portal.
After seeing them off, rod finished casting spells. At this time, a familiar voice came to his ears: "it seems that you are doing well in elacia. What should I call you, 'elot'?"
Darkness wrapped rod's body, and familiar words came from the source of darkness. In this deep darkness, rod finally opened his long silent scarlet eyes.
Sally's figure appeared in his eyes. Maybe it's always shrouded in darkness. Sally's dress is very casual. It's just a simple black dress, but it also highlights her tight figure.
"Are you looking for me?" Seeing the thief leader appear, rod asked unexpectedly. His whereabouts in elacia were not noticed by Marion in the shadow mercenary regiment from the beginning. Naturally, Sally couldn't hide it. Sally gave him the unique magic crossbow.
"Haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you a little. Moreover, I have prepared a gift for you." Sally said with a smile.
