"ah---!!!"

A scream suddenly appeared, which made the mercenaries panic immediately. They looked at each other, wanting to see which poor worm was unfortunate, but after looking around, the mercenaries were surprised to find that their companions had not been reduced, and everyone stood here well, and no one had any problems.

So, where did this scream come from?

They stared around with caution, while Rhode raised his brows and then turned his eyes to the villagers' hut not far away.

As if reminding them, the village that had already been trapped in the dark and silent area, seemed to suddenly wake up again. Under the night wind, screams, screams, angrily shouts and sharp crys could be heard, forming a new noise. This made the mercenaries even more at a loss. They looked into the distance, hesitating and wondering what to do. Because at this time, the fool could also guess that the undead might have attacked the villagers!

What should we do?

Many people subconsciously turned their eyes to Rhodes, waiting for his answer, but Rhodes just stood in the middle of the circle and stared at the night view around them, looking like he was wandering outside the sky.

"Sir, those villagers..."

After a moment, Lando finally couldn't help asking, but before he finished speaking, Rhode stretched out a hand and interrupted his next words.

"I know, leave them alone."

"Don't worry about them?"

"The target of those guys is not there, don't be fooled, don't forget our mission..." As he said, Rhode was silent for a moment, and under the shadows, no one saw that the corners of his mouth were rising slightly at this moment, as if he was trying his best to hide a trace of joy.

"Our mission is to snipe them here, and don't run away by their noses."

"But, those villagers..."

Shana also said hesitantly.

"Those villagers are also in trouble. Do you want me to take a team of people to see?"

"No matter how troublesome it is, it is an outsider. I don't want my subordinates to become lifeless zombies when they come back. It will be easier than you to cut down those guys I never know."

Rhode's leisurely answer made the mercenaries a little stunned. They opened their mouths and felt that the attitude of the regiment commander was really weird. Of course, most of the people present were veteran mercenaries with rich adventures and experience. Of course, they could understand what Rhode meant. The situation is very obvious now. Seeing that the undead could not break the mercenaries' defense line, they planned to attack the east and west and use this method to force the mercenaries to disperse. Once they separated, it would be much easier to deal with. If Rhodes randomly sent someone to check, then the other party must have been prepared to ambush and waited for them to take the bait. If they were beaten up in one net, then the strength of the mercenary group was willing to be

It must be a big loss. On the other hand, if Rhodes go there with powerful combat power, the weaker part on this side may be attacked. In short, no matter how Rhodes choose, it is very likely to fall into the trap of the other party. This move is tried and done when the bandits deal with mercenaries. Especially when the mercenaries protect the merchants through the mountain road, if the bandits cannot break through the mercenary blockade head-on, they will take some more hidden and threatening means to capture mercenaries or relatives of the merchants' servants and compel them to separate. Then they eat up the weak part with lightning speed, and the mercenary group that has lost some of their strength will no longer be so threatening.

Of course Rhodes would not leave. He knew that the other party's target was for Christie. The girl was weak and could not take her around. But here he had the strongest combat power to be himself and Celia. The other three people were not at all relieved to lead Rhodes alone. However...

"Master, I'll go and have a look."

Celia turned around and reported to Rhode in a low voice.

"You don't have to worry about mine..."

“………………………………”

Hearing Celia's request, Rhode was silent for a moment, then he patted Anne on the shoulder and signaled her to protect Christie. Then he walked out of the circle, came to Celia's side, and pulled out the long sword around his waist.

"I'll give you five minutes."

Then he whispered.

"Five minutes later, if you don't come back, then I will force the summon."

“Yes, master.”

Hearing Rhode's answer, Celia whispered, then she spread her wings and flew into the night sky.

"Mr. Rhodes."

Looking at the angel girl who was leaving, Marin seemed a little uneasy.

"Is it okay for Miss Celia to go alone? If there is a big trouble there..."

"No need, I just sent her to see the situation, and I didn't ask her to handle the trouble."

"But………"

Hearing this, Lijie also spoke timidly.

“Our mission is to protect the village…”

"No, Lijie."

Rhode reached out and shook it lightly.

"Our mission is to expel the undead - don't make a mistake. In our obligations, it does not include protecting the village, so strictly speaking, it has nothing to do with me to live or not, and whether I save them depends on my mood. But it's a pity that at least so far, I'm not in a good mood."

"That's right, the bad guys in this village are not worthy of being protected at all."

Annie also waved her small fist and complained dissatisfiedly.

"Anyway, even if they are saved, they will only be framed. These people don't know how to be grateful at all. Let's die!"

"Okay, this is not the issue you need to care about now."

Perhaps he noticed something, Rhodes waved his hand and a bright red sword blade swept through the air.

"We have guests coming to the door again."

“……………………”

As Rhodes spoke, a series of low roars sounded, and then dozens of black shadows slowly stood up from the roofs around the square. The shriveled skin, lifeless eyes, holding ragged weapons, deep bones, and rotten body emitting a stinky smell.

"All staff are ready to start implementing the second plan."

Rhode said, raising his sword.

And at this moment, accompanied by the roars like wild beasts, the ghouls jumped up and rushed towards everyone.

Celia spread her wings and flew in the night sky. With the help of the halo, she easily discovered the chaos - in front of the hut not far away, several villagers were lying in pools of blood, and not far away beside them were militia holding torches and trembling.

"What happened?"

The angel girl landed on the ground and asked softly.

"Those damn undead attacked Baker and captured his son!"

A militia waving the torch in his hand angrily. It was purely the angel's long-lasting reputation that forced him not to speak ill of Celia immediately, but the dissatisfaction was already very strong.

"What exactly are those mercenaries doing? Aren't they here to protect us?"

"Yes, yes, what's going on!"

"My child, my child...!!!"

Faced with the chaotic situation, Celia didn't say much. She looked around and then frowned slightly as if she noticed something.

"Go back now, now, hurry up."

Then, Celia quickly gave orders to everyone.

"Why should we listen to you? We are going to find that child, he must be alive! I don't know what those damn undead will do to them, if we don't..."

The militia did not finish speaking because at this moment, Celia opened her eyes suddenly, then she held the sword in her right hand and waved it forward. The surging sacred flames burst out around with the angel as the center. This sudden change made the villagers scream and raise their hands, trying to resist the sacred fire that was coming to their faces.

But the silver flames did not cause any harm to them. On the contrary, they stroked the villagers' bodies like a breeze and spread to the distance. At the same time, the dead souls hidden in the dark shadows screamed and revealed their true colors. They quickly escaped backwards from the silver fire rings and howled angry at the same time.

“…………”

Celia held the sword in her backhand and looked at the undead in front of her coldly. The villagers were also stunned at the moment. They looked at the undead who appeared beside them at some point. At this moment, they were trembling because of fear of silver fire in the distance. Their minds were blank and they didn't know what to do.

“Ha…he…he…he…he…he…”

And at this moment, a low, evil voice suddenly rang out.

"Although I had guessed that I would catch prey, it still surprised me... An angel? This is a great harvest. Your soul must be very beautiful, and my master will definitely reward me for it!"

“………Are you a fallen devil believer?”

Celia raised her long sword, her wings closed slightly, and she looked around with caution. But the voice chuckled lightly at this moment, as if he thought it was an extremely stupid question.

"I am not a fallen Miss Angel. You angels always don't understand humans... It's not surprising that we humans have our own ideas and goals, and I don't call it fallen... Hope, I should say that, this is the hope I strive for. For this, I even use my soul to make a deal, just for those who are more important than my soul. I think, Miss Angel, you shouldn't be able to understand my thoughts."

“…………………I don’t intend to understand.”

Celia said coldly.

"And, under the glory of the dragon soul, no matter what ambition you and your master have, it will eventually be nothingness-that is not something that can exist in this world."

"It's very good, but unfortunately it doesn't work for me."

The voice paused, then with a slight sarcastic smile.

"But now that you are here, we don't need to say anything more...I still have my work to do. And these children... they will treat you well, so don't leave? Miss Angel, otherwise these innocent people will die here today--so, how many people can you save?"
