MTL - The Last King of Darkness-Chapter 66 flower of humanity
Coming to the alley next to the tavern, Rhodes opened the eyes of the soul to prevent being followed or eavesdropped.
Under the vision of the soul's eye, those with strong soul fluctuations are all far away, and there is only one closer. According to the route, it should be the patrolling academy guard.
He was not being watched.
This is also where Rhodes has been feeling strange recently.
Since the sewer incident, he has not found a surveillance figure again.
Neither the Internal Affairs Tribunal nor the Military War Department came to find him.
For a time, he seemed to be an outsider, and those complicated things had nothing to do with him.
Rhode doesn't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but he has made up his mind that as soon as the invasion is over, no matter if anyone comes to him or not, he will go to the Internal Affairs Tribunal to find Lauren and his teacher, Black Bear, and take everything he knows. Information, under the pretext of "amnesia cured", inform them.
If necessary, he can also provide his Sherlock Holmes-level reconnaissance and reasoning ability to catch the murderer as soon as possible and settle the matter.
"Say something."
Zales said impatiently:
"I have to go back and have breakfast with the animal trainer sister."
Rhode took out the silver sign: "Zaza, can you be sure that this thing is true or false?"
Zales took it and read it over and over several times:
"Hunter license? What do you want to do? Go to Hongfang Street when you have time, why don't you find a way to get into Kashan's room. In terms of appearance, few people can match her, but her **** are a little smaller. Wouldn't you mind?"
Rhode frowned: "Answer my question, I'm in a hurry now."
"Well, let me tell you, this thing is almost impossible to counterfeit, all the licenses are actually part of the Hunter's Holy Grail, and you can sense the existence of the Holy Grail by imprinting your spirit in it, and similarly, it can sense your ."
"How to imprint?"
"Just input the psionic energy. The psychic energy is controlled by your spirit. The license plate will record the characteristics of your spirit. This is the brand."
"Is it dangerous?"
"No."
Rhodes was silent for a moment, and then asked, "How much is a hunter's license?"
"About 5,000, the college is 8,000."
"But I didn't spend any money."
Rhodes told the matter briefly.
Zales smiled after hearing this: "I guess that boss may be targeted by the sheriff and anxious to get rid of this thing. You are lucky. Well, I'm going to have breakfast."
Rhode finally asked: "If I am discovered by the academy, is there any danger?"
"Yes, Kashan will kill you, because you will deduct fifty points from ten groups."
—
Rhode hesitated for a moment, but chose to believe Zales' words.
He held the long silver card and poured psychic energy into it.
In an instant, an inexplicable feeling appeared, Rhode seemed to have touched a behemoth, it was like a beast standing upright, sleeping in eternal darkness.
The hallucination soon disappeared, and Rhode looked at the silver medal, with the words "Blade of Dawn" still lingering in the corner of his eye.
Is it done?
Rhodes decided to try.
He put on the Goldworth Medal, inserted the spirit spear into his arms, took the soul element, the soul red crystal, the red powder, the real silver bullet and the thunder stone, and walked towards the east gate of the academy.
Along the way, I can see many one-year students who perform patrol tasks in the academy. They are scattered throughout the academy in departments and groups, but most of them only play the role of vigilance, maintenance of order and training, and the real guards. All were scattered in the dark, and only Rhodes could find them.
The on-duty function of the East Gate is also replaced by patrolling students, but a department teacher will be assigned to prevent students from encountering situations that they cannot handle.
Rhodes came to the east gate and explained his purpose to the teacher on duty.
The teacher obviously knew him, but he still let Jinworth's badge light up before letting him go to the academy's defense office to register.
At the defense, Rhodes showed and lit the hunter's license.
The defense captain gave him a deep look: "Are you sure you won't accept the supervision of the academy?"
"What about acceptance?"
"I will send someone to follow you to make sure that the destination you are going to is as legal and safe as the one you registered. We will take you back to the academy in advance during the dangerous period, and you will need to pay for the cost of the duty officer."
"Is Wangcheng in danger now?"
"occasionally."
"Will the Doomsday Cult come out to attack us?"
The defense captain sneered: "Unless they want to kill themselves."
"Then I don't need it."
"But you're just a freshman."
Rhode frowned and pulled out his special student badge: "I am a special student."
The defense captain didn't speak any more, and silently gave him a pass, only registering the time he went out.
Walking out of the magnificent Jinworth gate alone, Rhode let out a long sigh of relief.
Finally another step forward.
The street outside the door is very spacious. On one side is the dazzling Jinworth College, and on the other side are neatly parked many horseless carriages. Coming and going, very lively.
Rhodes watched for a moment and noticed that before everyone got into the car, everyone would take out silver coins and stuff them into the box at the door.
Self-service hearse?
Well, I admit you guys are really advanced.
Rhodes walked to a hearse, took out a silver coin and stuffed it into the long mouth on the box.
With the sound of clicking, the gears and bearings turned one by one, and the closed door opened with a bang.
Inside the carriage are standard two rows of seats with a low table in the middle.
The only difference is that there is a blue slate on the low table with an upside-down round clock.
Rhodes glanced at it, and the longest needle moved out a square and was slowly returning.
One quarter of an hour.
A quarter of an hour's time.
A bit expensive.
10,000 silver cables can be used for more than 90 days.
Rhodes put in another coin.
click.
The round clock took a step outward and became two squares.
should be enough.
After sitting up, Rhode found that there were still many bright dots on the blue slate, which read "King's Cross Station", "Iron Cross Street Station", "Hammer Street Station" and so on.
This should be the station that can be reached.
Rhode remembered Lauren's horseless car, which should be the difference between a bus and a private car.
Isn't it right, you have to buy a car here too?
Rhodes muttered silently, and moved his gaze to the top of the slate, which also had two lines written on it:
[Please drive safely, do not damage the hearse or the items in the car, do not cheat by cheating, do not do uncivilized behavior in the car, this car has been monitored, any behavior that violates the law of the king will be severely punished! 】
The last four words are enlarged and marked in red, showing its powerful deterrent.
Wipe... It really is the age of psionic electricity. It seems that this hearse has gone through a lot of twists and turns from its birth to the present.
Humans are all the same.
Taking back his messy thoughts, Rhode quickly found where he was going.
Iron Cross neighborhood.
This is where he previously performed patrol duties as a special cadet.
Rhodes had already thought about it.
If you don't let me go, I'll go by myself.
The defense minister of the Iron Cross neighborhood had a very good impression of him, and would definitely not refuse a free laborer.
He can join any team, just as crazy as he did last time.
Rhodes wouldn't go out on the street to hunt monsters like a fool.
Not to mention the Doomsday sect that had a grudge against him, there were also enemies staring at him in the Internal Affairs Tribunal. It was very unsafe for him to wander the streets by himself for a long time.
Teams are the best option.
Originally, Rhodes was going to find passers-by to go with him to avoid accidents on the road, but this hearse looks so advanced, there is a high probability that it should not be attacked.
With certain thoughts, Rhode pressed the light spot representing the Iron Cross neighborhood.
boom!
When the body moved, it slammed into the chair with its back.
There was a steady push back, and the hearse had already driven onto the avenue, speeding towards the Iron Cross block.
I don't know why, but there are quite a lot of people in the royal city today. The streets are full of hearses, including small four-wheeled carriages like him, and double-decker floating buses.
There are people on both sides of the road, they look well-dressed and well-mannered, the men mostly wear light-colored robes, white, yellow, and blue are the most common colors.
Ladies mainly wear long skirts, beige, red and gold are the main colors, some of them wear top hats, some have veils, and when they smile, they cover their lips, looking very elegant.
Black seems to be a feared color here, and no one uses this color except for a very small number of special groups.
Rhodes looked at the scene outside the window, his mind was running fast.
In his limited experience of going out of the city a few times, the royal city has always been deserted, and there is hardly a single person in sight.
Why are there so many people today? Is it a special day?
If this is the case, will there still be countless monsters on the street for him to hunt like that day?
Rhodes was worried.
However, this is the inner city, maybe it is different in the outer city.
The hearse is fast and quite agile, moving quickly through the crowd and the hearse.
After a while, Rhodes came under the high wall of the inner city. The guards at the city gate were students of the academy, and one of them was Beorwood, whom he saw at the banquet.
His bear-like body is very conspicuous, and he is standing on the road to stop all the hearses and check their documents one by one.
When it was Rhodes' turn, he opened the window, greeted generously, and handed over his pass.
Beorwood was stunned: "It's you."
Immediately afterwards, there was huge contempt in his eyes, and he simply glanced at his pass and threw it back.
"Dirty guy."
Getting out of the way, the hearse quickly drove over with the inexplicable Rhodes.
"Have I offended him?"
After thinking for a moment, Rhode suddenly remembered the words of Zales and Annabei.
"Oh, I see, maybe he thought I was going to that Hongfang Street."
As soon as he heard the name, he knew that it was probably a fireworks and moon place, and both of them thought that he wanted to go to that kind of place with his hunter license.
Ha ha.
You underestimate me too much.
How could such a vulgar place like Hongfang Street compare to the nuns of the church medical clinic?
Hey hey hey.
After laughing for a while, Rhode thought of Aunt Uther again.
Well, I have time to go back and see her later.
If it wasn't for Aunt Uther, he wouldn't have gotten into Kingworth College, and he would have probably died in the first invasion long ago.
To be fair, he should go back once.
Aunt Uther also said that she would help him treat his amnesia again, although in the eyes of Rhodes now, it doesn't matter anymore, he should know all about it.
However, it can also be his excuse.
He can claim that Aunt Uther's treatment was successful, that he successfully recovered his memory and handed over all the information he knew.
If the Internal Affairs Tribunal finds out the truth and catches the murderer, maybe Aunt Uther will be rewarded.
Um.
good!
The idea is good.
As long as you survive the invasion, do it right away.
Rhodes was in a slightly happy mood, and he was not so anxious about the upcoming fate.
He looked out the window, and after crossing the high wall to the outer city, the scene changed dramatically.
The light suddenly dimmed, the streets became narrow, the flow of people became crowded and noisy, the cross-flow of sewage and debris could be seen everywhere, the houses on both sides became messy and outdated, and the speed of the hearse slowed down.
One after another, the shouting in the street poured into my ears.
"The best phlogiston! The best phlogiston! One serving can keep your spirit lamp on for a whole week!"
"The clam meat just delivered by Qianhu Town! One piece of silver wire!"
"Fresh and hot mushroom soup! Drink a bowl of spirit all day long!"
"Sweet vine jam! Sweet vine jam!"
"The new honey from the City of Flowers!"
All kinds of mobile street vendors shouted loudly, and the air mixed with stench and fragrance poured into his nose, making Rhodes feel the breath of life that he had not seen for a long time.
This is what the residents at the bottom of the royal city look like. Most of their robes are plain and shabby, with wrinkled faces, yellow faces and thin skin, and calluses on their hands.
Slowly but surely, the hearse separates the flow of people and goes all the way.
When it came to a circular square, Rhodes saw a harpist sitting on the fountain, playing melodious music.
The bells of the church not far away did not overshadow his music.
A large group of half-old children ran wildly around him, dancing unknown dances, their clothes were ragged, their faces were covered with unknown dirt, but they couldn't hide their happy smiling faces like angels~www.novelbuddy.com~ a few A woman in thick rag-like clothes looked at them lovingly.
The hearse crossed here and drove forward firmly.
Suddenly, a little girl ran to the window of the carriage and held up a bunch of flowers.
"Big brother, do you want flowers? It's the narcissus planted by my mother. She said it's the flower of love. Big brother can give it to the one he loves, as long as it is a silver cord."
"It's very fresh, it was just picked, and there are still water droplets on the petals!"
"Big brother, do you want it?"
Rhodes couldn't hold back and handed a silver coin over.
The little girl's surprised voice came from the car window: "Big brother, thank you, I'll give you the flowers!"
"Do not."
Rod crossed the window and smiled at the skinny little girl.
"I'll give you flowers."
