MTL - Heroes of the Invincible Undead-Chapter 36 Seal of Silver IV
Rod took the vampire to the carriage approved by the Silver Seal Merchants Group.
There are two rows of seats on the left and right sides of the carriage, but the space is not spacious, obviously only for a small number of people.
After entering the carriage from the side, Rhode sat down on the seat in the carriage.
Looking at the interior decoration of the carriage and the windows that can be opened on both sides, Rhode realized that the carriage was originally prepared to transport passengers.
Rhode speculates that due to the huge rewards for transporting passengers, the Silver Seal Group itself will also choose to bring some passengers, but will not carry too much. Once the number of passengers is excessive, things beyond the control of the Silver Seal Merchant Group will occur.
It is certainly cheaper for large groups to carry passengers. Passengers who want to go to the city of mourning have long left with the previous big merchant group. This led to that, until two days before departure, the Silver Seal Merchants Group did not find any passengers.
This is why, at the beginning, Uther did not directly reject Rod as a passenger because of the identity of Rod’s Necromancer, but negotiated with Rod about travel expenses.
In the beginning, Uther wanted to make Rhodes pay high travel expenses through repression. However, through his own observations, Rhode noticed the real goods he was transporting, which made Uther have to waive Rhode's travel expenses as Rhode's sealing fee.
After judging that the Silver Seal Chamber of Commerce is actually shipping the soul crystal, Rhode only proposed that he wanted to be a passenger, but did not take this opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail a group of businesses, but also had his own consideration.
As Rhode said, it is the passenger who follows the business group, and along the way, it must be taken care of by the business group.
The Silver Seal Merchants Group is already willing to hide this information and not charge any travel expenses to Rod and his party, which is a sign of weakness. If Rhode really wants to be intimate, the business group is not vegetarian.
Along the way, Rod couldn't always guard against revenge from the merchant group. A few senior professionals, plus a caster, under the reasonable arrangement, may not be able to kill Rod and the vampire.
As is the case now, although the business group cannot obtain travel expenses from Rhodes, it will not forcibly round up Rhodes with unknown strength and increase their losses. Rhodes can also follow the business group to Diya.
"Death Crystal..."
Sitting in the carriage, Rhodes recalled the situation before, took out the soul crystal from the space ring, checked it, and handed it to the vampire next to it.
The vampire suddenly became a treasure, and after taking it, he held the crystal of the dead soul in his hand and was close to his body.
The soul crystal releases death energy all the time, this kind of death energy can help the necromancer to transform the undead creature, and can also help the undead creature advance.
Therefore, in Diya, Necromancer Crystal is very sought after by the Necromancer, but in other places it can only be used as jewelry decoration, the price is far less than Diya.
According to Rod's feeling, the advancement of the vampire in the previous tomb is probably caused by this crystal of the dead soul.
At this time, because he had planned to follow the merchant group to the city of mourning, how long it would take along the way, Rhode did not know. Holding the crystal of the dead soul to the vampire also hopes that he can improve his strength by absorbing the death energy.
After the advancement is interrupted, the vampire cannot advance again in a short time, but can rely on the death energy released by the soul crystal to maintain its strength at the peak of the third order, waiting for the next opportunity to advance.
At this time, the sky outside the carriage was completely darkened.
Looking at the vampire assuring the energy from the crystal of the dead soul, Rhode himself had a plan.
Rod did not choose to meditate. Rhode's mana has reached the upper limit corresponding to the knowledge attribute. Performing ordinary meditation, except for accelerating the recovery of mana, has no effect.
At this time, only the deep meditation can improve Rhode's strength.
However, the conditions required to enter deep meditation are harsh, and Rhode himself has some ideas.
Since coming to this world, successive battles have given Rod no time to rest. Even with a little spare time, they are preparing for the next battle. The only way to rest is meditation.
Until now, Rod has never slept once. Through meditation, even if the physical fatigue can be recovered, the mental sleepiness caused by the battle cannot be eliminated.
In this state, Rhode did not think that he could smoothly enter the state of deep meditation. The experience of the previous life let Rod know that instead of performing useless meditation, it is better to spend time to adjust his state to the best, and then try deep meditation.
Therefore, Rhode chose to adjust his mental state through sleep.
Because the space inside the carriage was not spacious, Rhode couldn't lie down. He could only sit on the seat, crossed his hands, back against the wooden board behind the carriage, closed his eyes, and began to try to sleep.
As for whether the Silver Seal Merchants will take advantage of this opportunity to kill themselves, Rod is not worried.
A business group with a lot of crystals of the dead soul would be more cautious than Rod thought, fearing that an abnormal move would make other forces notice themselves. Is there anything more extraordinary than besieging passengers in the station?
…………
for a long time.
Perhaps the vigilance that exists in the subconscious mind, even if he falls asleep, Rhode cannot completely fall asleep, but still maintains a semi-awake state.
The noisy sounds around him, coupled with the vibrations coming from under his feet, made Rod wake up in time. The vampire didn't feel anything like it, still absorbing energy from the crystal of the dead soul.
In an instant, Rhodes pushed a window through the gap and looked out.
The sky was still dim, showing a dark blue light, and the entire business group was ready, and a large number of carriages gathered around it, preparing to move in one direction.
"are you awake?"
As if he was aware of the movement in the carriage, a hoarse voice came from the front of the carriage.
Rhodes pushed the window open, and the probe looked forward. It was the thieves I saw yesterday who were sitting in front of the carriage they were sitting on, whipping the horse in front with a whip.
"You should be honored. The business group has changed the departure time for you."
He deliberately confessed this matter to Rhodes. After saying this, the thieves said nothing, but drove the carriage in front.
Rhode didn't say much, closed the window again, and sat back in the carriage.
Rhode understood the meaning of the thieves. Since he was not sure whether the information would be leaked, after a night of preparation, the business group chose to go one day earlier and set off early today.
As the sky just lighted up, the team of merchants lined up in a long line, leaving from the premises of the Freelance Chamber of Commerce and heading towards the door of the town.
At this time, under the dark blue sky, several people dressed in black robes were staring at the caravan far away, indicating that the road would not seem calm.
