NOVEL WEB Chapter 251
Chapter 251 Guardian God’s Shield
In Rod’s perception, the city lord also hid a large part of his strength, and his true strength would not be weaker than the palace mage he had originally seen.
Even so, the city lord still did not resist, and took the initiative to hand the treasure to Rod, as if the shield he was holding in his hand was not a part of an artifact, but an ordinary treasure.
Although Rod was very surprised by the actions of this city lord, he did not express it. After getting the shield, Rod continued to talk to the city lord for a few words, and then left behind.
At this time, Rod’s sight was also placed on the shield in his hand.

Even if it is only one of the parts of the artifact, this shield is still very powerful. Rod knew that if all the parts of the artifact could be collected completely, the “Arrow of Titans” would reveal its true function.
Putting the shield of the patron saint into the space ring, Rhode’s collection of artifacts this time can be considered complete. In Rod’s perception, the remaining parts of the artifact were located far away from him, and could not be collected temporarily.
Through the position hint in the spiritual imprint, Rod quickly walked towards Rowling’s position.
At this time, it seemed that he felt the information that the centaur leader and the vampire had prompted him. Rod noticed that on Rowling’s side, there should have been a battle, but there was no loss.
As he did not know the specific situation, Rod quickly walked towards Rowling’s position.
Not long after, Lord walked out of the inner city gate and came to the streets of the outer city. Through the perception from the spiritual imprint, Lord knew that Rowling and his party should stay here and wait.
After the battle, in order to ensure the safety of Rowling, and at this time Rod also got the shield of the patron saint he needed, he did not let Rowling go on, but stayed here, waiting for Rod’s arrival. .
Before long, Rod came to Rowling and his party. Rod noticed that many houses around him had collapsed, and there were traces of a large number of creatures leaving. Obviously, the battle was not as simple as he thought.
Looking at Rowling in front of him, before Rod could ask, Rowling said to Rod first:
“Rhodes, will you help me kill someone, okay?”
Hearing Rowling’s question, Rod was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Rowling to make such a request.
Through this period of contact, Rod can be regarded as a complete understanding of Rowling’s character. In Rod’s view, Rowling is still kind-hearted, it is hard to imagine that Rowling will ask herself to kill.
Rod asked: “Who do you want me to kill for you?”
“A Necromancer named Sepp, he should have a large position in the city.”
Hearing Sepp’s name, Rod suddenly knew who Rowling was referring to, but Rod didn’t understand why she did it.
In the process of obtaining the treasure, through the concentration of death energy in Sepp’s body and the strength he showed, Rod knew clearly that he was not a fake.
Rod wanted to know that Sepp’s real body had been talking to himself in the city, and when did he provoke Rowling.
Seeing Rod did not reply, but looked at herself, Rowling explained: “I learned from a hero that the creatures living in the outer city were the kind of creatures that scared me at the beginning. People change.”
“The original ordinary people, after being extracted the vitality from their bodies, became like this, they could only stay in the city and die. And all of this was done by Sepp.”
After speaking, as if thinking of something, Rowling’s face showed obvious anger. Rowling knew that as long as Rod agreed, she would be able to fulfill this promise, kill Sepp, and rescue these people in the city at the same time.
After learning Rowling’s reason, Rod’s face was obviously disappointed, but he still replied: “If it’s just for this reason, I’m sorry to refuse.”
Rowling looked extremely puzzled after Lord’s refusal. She obviously didn’t expect Lord to reject herself. She immediately asked: “Lord, don’t you want to rescue these people in the city?”
Rod faintly replied: “It doesn’t make sense. These creatures are so weak that they don’t even have the qualifications to become undead creatures. I don’t need their allegiance. The time is not suitable for fighting here.”
“For what reason do you want to rescue them? Is it just because of the compassion in your heart? Or is it possible to improve your own strength by saving them?”
After listening to Lord’s words, Rowling was a little silent for a while, not knowing how to answer, and in the end she could only tell everything to Lord He:
“Before, a hero told me all this, which is the origin of these creatures. I promised that hero that I would kill Necromancer Sepp for him…”
Before Rowling finished speaking, Rod immediately interrupted: “If it’s just this level of commitment, it doesn’t need to be kept.”
As if thinking of something, Rod continued:
“Promises are also divided into categories. If it is a promise to other people, you need to get the corresponding reward. Just as you promised to kill the Necromancer for him, then he also needs to provide you with equivalent rewards, not just a few words of intelligence. Understand.”
“This kind of promise is only related by interest. If you think the reward is not worth keeping, you can violate it at any time. You treat it as a promise, and it doesn’t exist from the beginning.”
Rowling was stunned after hearing Rod’s words. Obviously, because of Rod’s identity, what he said had a greater impact on Rowling.
After speaking, the centaur leader bowed his body, and Rod also signaled to Rowling, preparing to leave. At this moment, Rod suddenly noticed Rowling’s eyes.
Rowling did not make any movements, still standing in place. At this time, Rowling’s eyes were red again, and she looked extremely aggrieved, just looking at Rod.
Aware of Rowling’s state at this time, Rod knew that maybe he was too harsh on her, maybe he shouldn’t easily deny her promise, and shouldn’t impose his own experience on her.
In this regard, Rod can only let out a long sigh.
“These are just my opinions. If you feel that this promise is really important, and it will make you feel bad if you don’t complete it, then this promise is no longer your promise to others, but your promise to yourself. Do your best to complete it. If you can’t do it, I’ll do it for you.”
In the sky, the figure of the ghost dragon appeared, and it seemed that only waiting for Luo’s order, he would immediately breathe out the ghost of the dragon and attack the city of Valen.
