Darkness covered the entire sky, and even the hero's light fell into silence.
Blood flowed from his body. Ivor opened his mouth, but said nothing. His red skin no longer sprayed out heat, but gradually became colder.
He lowered his hand, and the sword blade that was about to be swung fell to the side feebly. He turned his head, trying to see the face of the man behind him, but there was only darkness in front of him and he couldn't see anything. The body that lost its power fell from the air and was eventually swallowed by the undead creatures below.
A hero died, and his hope and will fell with him, and there was no possibility of recovery.
In the sky aside, Rhodes was looking at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
Now, Rhodes finally understood why he felt a far greater threat from the thieves leader than anything else.
Even though Rhodes has long placed the strength of the thieves leader at a very high level, she is still more powerful than Rhodes imagined. Even the hero Ivor cannot compete with her.
Among the creatures at the pinnacle of legends known to Rhodes, if the holy archangel symbolizes almighty power, and the sea snake on the water elemental plane symbolizes the pinnacle of body and blood, then the leader of thieves in front of her, she What it symbolizes is undoubtedly the ultimate in speed and assassination.
Ivor, who had forced Rhodes into desperate situations several times and even cut off Rhode's arm, could not even resist for a moment. When the darkness spread, the attack from the shadows instantly claimed his life. , which also aroused Rhodes' extreme vigilance.
The existence of the Scarlet Eye allowed Rhodes to fully see how all this happened. At this moment, Rhodes seemed to begin to understand why the thief leader's message was so mysterious. According to her speed and the shadows surrounding her, ordinary creatures had no way of detecting what was happening in the darkness.
Compared to the Titan's Arrow that was still in her hand, Rhodes was more worried about his own life.
Recalling the power she showed, Rhodes thought to himself that if he were in Ivor's position, he might not be able to escape her attack, and his final outcome would not be much better.
Facing an invincible enemy and having just suffered serious injuries, using space magic to evacuate may be the best choice.
At this moment, Rhodes had no time to care about the artifact that originally belonged to him in the hands of the thief leader. Losing the artifact was better than losing his life. Only by saving his life would he have the possibility of regaining the artifact in the future.
The Scarlet Eyes and the Holy Word of Darkness make Rhodes fearless of any strong enemy. As long as his rank is further improved and he reaches the legendary level, no one will be his opponent.
Just when Rhodes was about to use Flame Escape, in the sky, at the position where Ivor originally stayed, the thieves leader suddenly made a move.
She raised her hand and threw the Titan's arrow towards Rhodes' position. The sword blade in her hand drew an arc in the air. Rhodes saw the right moment and held the hilt of the sword firmly in his remaining left hand.
Feeling the lost Titan's arrow and the special connection between his bloodlines, Rhodes seemed to be stunned for a moment. He looked at the thieves leader in the distance and asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean? .”
In the darkness, Rhodes noticed that the bandit leader smiled frivolously, and the next moment, her figure suddenly disappeared from the air.
"what you think?"
Rhodes was startled. There was a whisper in his ear, as if someone put his mouth close to it and then said it. Rhodes could even feel the cold and biting breath coming from his ears.
The next moment, Rhodes' figure disappeared instantly, trying to appear higher in the sky, where it was not covered by darkness.
Unfortunately, as Rhodes' figure moved upward, the darkness that devoured all light also spread upwards, and Rhodes could not escape this darkness at all.
After using space magic to distance himself, Rhodes was just about to look downwards for the figure of the thieves leader. Suddenly, his movement stopped. The figure of the thieves leader was clearly in the sky in front of him, leisurely turning a knife embedded in it. Gemstone dagger.
"You look very nervous and must be full of uneasiness in your heart." Facing Rhode's solemn gaze, the thieves leader said casually, "But you shouldn't be afraid of me. I mean, if I wanted to deal with you, you would have already died."
Rhodes' expression changed, and he knew that what the leader of thieves said was not empty words.
Until now, Rhodes had never fought with all his strength against a creature at the pinnacle of legend. Even in Standwick City, when facing the holy Archangel, Rhodes used trickery to use the lives of creatures in the city to force them back. , Only now did Rhodes deeply feel the gap between him and those legendary apex creatures.
Fortunately, Rhodes did not feel any hostility from the thieves leader at this time, and she even helped herself to deal with the incoming powerful enemy.
The strong threat that Rhodes felt was more due to his inner vigilance. He was not used to someone approaching him like this, or even taking his life easily.
After realizing this, Rhodes took a deep breath and his expression gradually softened. He put down the Titan's Arrow that he had been protecting in front of him and said, "Thank you for everything you have done. You have obtained the leaders of the necromancers. The friendship of Lord Rhodes.”
She nodded with satisfaction, with a smile on her lips: "That's right, let's clean up the mess in the city, then reattach your arm, and let's go to the Thieves Guild Headquarters together."
As she said that, she glanced at the various creatures in the city, and finally looked at Rhodes again: "I know everything you did in the underground world. You should have cultivated your own magician, right? It seems that there is no need. I’ll help you, I’ll wait for you at the Thieves Guild in the city, but don’t keep me waiting too long.”
The deepest darkness gradually faded away from Rhodes, and finally submerged into a corner of Saou City, where the Thieves Guild was located.
Rhodes looked solemnly as he watched the leader of thieves gradually move away, until he could no longer see her figure at all, and even the undead creatures below regained their previous perceptions from the darkness, he felt relieved.
Even though the thieves leader did not show any hostility, Rhodes did not dare to relax in front of such a powerful being.
Returning to the ground with a solemn expression, Rhodes immediately arrived in front of Iver's body. He even had no time to retrieve his severed arm.
This hero who once had a brilliant will and brought a lot of trouble to Rhodes finally died in front of him in such a way, but Rhodes could not relax at all.
At this time, Rhodes encountered a more difficult problem than before.
