Led by Sally, rod leaves the suspended Hall of the book of silence to a room on the top floor of the palace.
Rod looked around. The room was filled with common furniture, but there was no lighting. The interior was dark.
The existence of scarlet eye makes rod see everything in it. The room is a little messy. A few pieces of clothes are thrown aside. To his surprise, it looks like the clothes he wore when he first met Sally.
Sally also noticed the clothes on the ground, and her face turned a little red. Fortunately, the cover of the dark made her feel at ease. But thinking that rod could see through everything in the dark, she couldn't sit still.
"Damn, my servant dares to be lazy," she spat in some exasperation. Before she could say anything more, a steady female voice came to Rhode's ears.
"My master, you are back at last."
A female servant in inconspicuous dress appeared in rod's eyes. She bent down and reported respectfully to Sally.
She didn't dress herself up, and her face looked more beautiful. What made rod care was that she exuded the flavor of a high-level professional.
"Marion, you are my most trusted steward. Tell me, who was the servant responsible for cleaning the room yesterday?" Sally asked in a deep voice.
"It's hatham, my master. She said yesterday that she had cleaned up everything in the room, but now it seems that it is not the case. Does she make you dissatisfied? " The servant called Marion replied.
"Yes." Sally's face sank. "I don't want to see her anymore. I want to cut off her tongue and send her to the shadow plain."
"At your command, my master." Said Marion quickly, and step by step out of the darkness towards the outside of the room.
On one side, rod just wanted to say something, but saw Sally quickly put the clothes on the ground into the space ring, so fast that rod didn't react at all.
"I hate being cheated." Seeing rod looking at herself, Sally snorted and said, "you won't cheat me, will you?"
Rod's mouth drew. He felt the chill and surrounded himself. Even when he was just beside Sally, he could feel the murderous feeling from her: "leader of the thief, you are very powerful, but I don't seem to have to cheat you."
"That's good, because next, you'd better answer my question honestly." Sally said with satisfaction.
When she said that, rod's face changed, and he seemed to expect something. Even as the leader of the thieves, the questions she wanted to answer by herself might have involved some secret matters.
Rod secretly clenched his teeth. Even what he did in the underground world, the leader of the thieves could clearly know. What else did she not know? Did she have to ask herself?
The only thing rod can think of is all kinds of secrets that exist in him. Maybe this is the intelligence the thief leader wants to know why his strength can be improved so quickly.
For rod, his deepest secret is naturally about his origin and the existence of the system. Even Rowling and enota, who are closest to rod, rod did not tell them.
After a moment's silence, rod guessed Sally's real purpose, looked at her and said slowly, "what do you want to know? Is there anything you don't even know? "
"Don't worry, let me prepare first, and then you will understand what I want to ask you." Sally said with a smile, and then walked towards the direction where Marion left.
Sally walked out of the room, but the darkness that enveloped rod did not dissipate, which undoubtedly showed rod that the thief leader did not go far away. She might be outside the room, somewhere rod could not see, which also made rod dare not relax his vigilance.
Rod has a dignified look at the direction of Sally's going away. There is a sense of being watched in his heart. Even in the dark, every move of rod will be perceived by Sally. Rod believes that the thief leader has such ability.
Even so, rod would not just wait to die. He carefully observed the room he was in and searched around for some useful information.
Finally, on one side of the room, on the long table with a lot of ancient books, rod found some special things, which deeply attracted rod's attention.
They were old sheepskin rolls. On the yellow paper, the words had faded and blurred. But with rod's efforts, he still recognized some of the contents on the paper.
The words of "the holy city of stande...", "miracle", "priest" and so on appeared on the scroll. Unfortunately, except for these clear words, rod could not recognize other contents on the paper. This made rod feel a little sorry. He didn't know what was written on the scroll.
The circular pattern on another parchment also attracted rod's attention. It was a spherical object, which looked like a magic eye with its tentacles removed. Rod didn't know what it meant.
"What are you looking at? It looks very confused. "
Just as rod frowned and wondered, a voice came from his ear, which made him realize that the leader of the thief had returned to the room without any perception.
Rod took a deep breath, looked at the scroll in his hand, and asked, "what's on it? I saw the words of the holy city of standwick, and the record of angels. "
A white hand reached in front of rod and pulled the scroll out of his hand. This time rod responded, but it didn't help.
Looking at the owner of the arm, rod seemed to find something, and his face was slightly surprised. At this moment, Sally's voice also reached rod's ear.
"It's an old legend. Even in the silent book of the thieves guild, there is no record of it. The long-lived creatures dare not talk about what happened at that time. Do you want to know this?"
Under rod's gaze, Sally raised her head slightly and asked softly.
"Yes, the powerful leader of thieves." Rod nodded, his face equally dignified.
"Rod, why do you call me so formally? Just call me Sally. " When rod said that, Sally laughed and said.
"Well... Sally, please tell me about all the things in this parchment."
