Rhodes smiled and replied: "This is a misunderstanding. If I am weak, how can I clean the sewers alone? How dare I hunt doomsday cultists?"

Heiyu's expression is a little dull.

"You can both conduct reconnaissance and kill enemies, so am I useless?"

Rhodes consoled him: "How could it be? Your badge is very useful."

Heiyu immediately showed a smile: "Yes, this is a sensor badge made from the ashes of evil spirits. Whenever an evil spirit approaches nearby, it will vibrate crazily. But unfortunately, this is just a simple sensor. It only

It can remind you that there is an evil spirit nearby, but it cannot point out its specific location."

Rhodes smiled and said: "It just works with me. The evil spirit seems to have the ability to teleport. I had already seen the direction just now, but when I turned around, it appeared."

Heiyu said in surprise: "Evil spirits are pure spirits and can travel freely in the spirit world. When it enters the spirit world, of course you can't see it."

Rhodes was moved in his heart and asked: "Then how can I see it?"

"Unless your spirit is also in the spiritual world."

"Isn't there nothing we can do to deal with the evil spirit?"

"Why can't you deal with it?" Heiyu looked at him in surprise: "Evil spirits entering and exiting the spirit world are instinctive behaviors. You don't think they will use this to attack or escape, right?"

"Uh, no?"

Heiyu covered his forehead: "You must also be an intellectualless orangutan. You hate learning and only love fighting. All creatures infected by the black mist have no reason. They only have madness, chaos, deathly silence, and instincts engraved in the soul mark.

The same goes for evil spirits. They enter the spirit world from time to time and return from the spirit world from time to time. There is no reason or purpose. When they are angered, they will directly and violently attack you. The biggest difficulty for us in dealing with them is that even if

We can’t see them even in the material world. Their spiritual bodies have very strong concealment capabilities. Those with a spiritual vision of less than fifty can’t even see their shadows.”

"Then how do you fight them?"

"The scouts would give us the points, but several blind men in our fortress had very poor eyesight, and the points were reported slowly and crookedly. I had no choice but to use my psychic powers to protect my whole body and chop at random with a knife."

"Can physical weapons harm spiritual bodies?"

"As long as it has psychic powers. By the way, I still don't know what it looks like. Please tell me."

Rod briefly but accurately described what the evil spirit looked like.

Heiyu shuddered: "It's really scary. Fortunately, I can't see it."

In this way, for the next two hours, they chatted casually while searching for evil spirits in the wasteland.

Searching for evil spirits is an act purely based on luck. They walk along the established route. Sometimes evil spirits will fly towards them, and sometimes they will suddenly appear in the air.

The induction badge does provide a lot of convenience. After all, Rhodes' soul eye cannot rotate 360 ​​degrees around the clock.

The neck will be broken.

Rhodes was not particularly satisfied with this efficiency. By the time they returned, they had only hunted thirty evil spirits in total.

Rhodes was the one doing the whole thing, and Blackfish was just yelling from the side.

Later, Rhodes was no longer even willing to use spirit-sealing bullets, and he could just as easily kill the evil spirits with real silver bullets.

Its flaws are so big that it seems like it was given away for free.

Two hours later, although Rhodes still wanted to continue hunting, Blackfish insisted on returning.

Because it’s almost night time.

This is the darkest period of the day. The power of fire is at its weakest during this period, and the power of black mist is strongest at this period. Many monsters hiding underground in the Corpse Wasteland will also come out and move around.

The most dangerous thing is that the silent state of many monsters sleeping deep in the wasteland will weaken and their perceptions will become sharper.

With the power of fire, they are likely to awaken these ancient beings.

This is not only very dangerous, but will also pose unexpected threats to nearby human strongholds.

"Unexpected" is the last thing Wang Cheng wants to see.

Trorian's power is very weak compared to the huge darkness, and it relies entirely on the observers and prophets in the White Tower to maintain a fragile balance.

Once "unexpected" occurs, it usually means they will suffer heavy losses, requiring complicated actions and long-term adaptation to adjust the new balance.

Because of this, in the dark world outside the royal city, it is common sense to prohibit any movement at night.

Blackfish discovered that this guy had no common sense. He was not only an ordinary orangutan without intelligence, but also a super orangutan with no intelligence.

He doesn't even know what an orangutan is.

"Don't you have a childhood? Didn't your mother tell you "The World of Light" when she was putting you to bed? Haven't you heard "About the Orangutan Growing Red Hair"? "The Little Princess and the Seven Snow Dwarfs"

You don’t know about "The Little Girl Who Illegally Sells Firestarters"? So many classic fairy tales were the spiritual food for our childhood... You are so pitiful."

Blackfish's words made Rhodes finally understand why he was always incompatible with them even though he had mastered many customs and habits.

It turned out to be a lack of childhood.

Okay, I will borrow "Bright World" to read when I get back.

By the way, I will bring my childhood here to let you see what "Pleasant Goat vs. Shui Bingyue" is.

On the way back, Heiyu kept giving Rod a variety of common knowledge. This guy was very talkative and very interested. Today's harvest was huge for him. In the past, they could not kill thirty evil spirits in a whole day.

.

And it was very easy, the evil spirit was hacked to death by him with just two cuts.

This is what he said after returning to Jianguan Fortress.

Rhodes didn't care much, but the other four teams were very envious. Annabeth's team, the most among them, only hunted ten.

Annabei looked at Heiyu proudly displaying the ashes of evil spirits in his hands, and sighed: "Don't be envious. In front of him, I am just a stone and wood core. Fortunately, he is more fragile."

Rhodes said unhappily: "You haven't tried it, how do you know I'm fragile? Only those who have experienced it are qualified to answer this question."

Turning his head, he raised his voice and asked:

"Heiyu, am I tough?"

Heiyu, who was bragging at the side, quickly replied: "Hard, hard, hard, I have tried it, and there is no one tougher than Brother Rhodes."

Annabeth snorted: "I must go with you tomorrow to see how hard you are."

"Forget it." Rhodes didn't want to go with her. "Magic Liberation" is said to be one of the seven characteristics. It sounds like she has some powerful long-range attack methods. Moreover, her spiritual vision is not weak, and she might be able to steal her away.

Captain Blackfish is the most suitable teammate for this monster. He has short hands, thick skin, and blind eyes. He can be used as a shield without stealing his soul.

Heiyu said happily: "Look, the Rhodes brothers all think that I am the best partner."

Annabeth glanced at him and hummed: "You guys are evil." She raised her chin, turned and walked away, leaving only an arrogant back for them.

——

In this way, Rhodes settled down at Jianguan.

The garrison soldiers at Jianguan responded with great enthusiasm to their arrival. As the end of the inner defense circle, they have never been taken seriously and have never received such great support.

I have never enjoyed the warmth of a protective fire.

When this human fire of life takes root here, its power becomes stable and powerful, and the entire area within a radius of three hundred yards is illuminated by its light.

Although it is still small compared to the darkness in the wasteland, the soldiers feel as if it is dawn.

Before the arrival of the Guardian Fire, they used the residual fire containing Mars separated from the Guardian Fire. Its power could not even light up the fortress. When fighting on the city wall, the soldiers also needed to wear red to resist the erosion of the black mist.

Tearstone.

But now, they can freely run on the city wall, look into the distance, and use ballistas and other defensive equipment to attack monsters.

The most important thing is that they can finally sleep well.

The number of people on duty at night has been reduced by more than half. It is impossible for any dark existence to bypass the fire and attack them. As long as they step into the range of the fire, they will continue to burn until they are reduced to ashes.

The recovery speed of spiritual energy is also faster. Sitting next to the burning guardian fire and meditating, feeling the warm breath pour into the soul and disperse into the limbs and bones, this is definitely the highest enjoyment.

It's much better than taking potions or eating cold soul red crystals.

But it is a pity that the fire protection sacrificial site of Jianguan Fortress is the smallest one, with only ten places.

Fire Keeper Moore is a very strict and eccentric old man, and he will drive out anyone who squeezes in.

"Next to the Guardian Fire, no more people than the limit are allowed to meditate. This is the basic rule." He warned everyone coldly.

Everyone except Rhodes can understand that this is to prevent the guardian fire from being damaged and causing the loss of power.

Under the arrangements of the garrison chief Steel Hand, captains Beowood and Raistlin, a rule of meditation was formulated. The time for each person to meditate in front of the Guardian Fire was determined based on the time of each person's mission and the severity of the battle.

And Rhodes, who has a brilliant record, is undoubtedly ranked first.

During this period, he and Heiyu went to the Corpse Wasteland to hunt evil spirits every day.

Set off in the morning and work until you return before night.

There are sixteen hours a day, and he has to work for twelve hours, wishing he could omit the time for eating and defecating.

Blackfish was full of energy on the first day, sluggish on the second day, and lay in the fortress on the third day unable to get out.

Rhodes could only replace himself with a warrior.
