Chapter 157 - Su Ritual (2/2)
“No wonder you’re the leader! Such brilliant words!”
Hearing Rhode’s response, the thief revealed a grin As a mercenary, he knew precisely how crucial it was to suck up to the leader However, Rhode didn’t usually hang out with theood chance, they naturally wouldn’t give it up
“With enough power, you receive rights With rights, you control power This is the sao”
Rhode reflected inwardly When he passed a wooden house, he suddenly halted and stared at it for a e square which see out of the ordinary as it was quite si aura e from within
“What is that place?” asked Rhode
“Hmm…” Randolf lifted his head and observed the wooden house and said, “that seems like a warehouse”
Rhode frowned and walked to the door before knocking lightly
No one answered
“Seems like there’s no one, Sir Do you want me to…”
Before Joey could offer to display his thief skills, Rhode punched the door with his fist The fragile door broke instantly, and the iers dared to come out to check
Rhode casually walked into the wooden house as if it was his own The thief looked around the house cautiously and only relaxed after he confirmed it was safe
“I didn’t know our leader was so violent… but that felt great! I’ve never tried breaking in by sh Just shut up!”
Randolf held his forehead and sighed helplessly He stared into Joey’s eyes and followed behind Rhode

Rhode slowly scoured the house but didn’t discover anything However, the troubling sensation in his heart didn’t disappear Instead, it grew stronger
A burst of rapid footsteps sounded near the entrance interrupted Rhode’s train of thoughts He lifted his head and saw the old village chief with a bitter expression
“Sir Rhode, what are you doing? If you want to enter, you can just infor his sweat However, Rhode didn’t intend to take his gru elders’ and straightforwardly pointed to the staircases which led underground
“That’s the cellar?”
“Yes Sir, that’s where Christie lives…”
Hearing the village chief’s answer, Rhode nodded and walked down the stairs
A chilly air blew froht, Rhode could still easily see the entire cellar clearly Dry stacked walls supported the entire cellar And in a dark corner, Rhode discovered a dirty small wooden bed The colors of the bedsheet were already washed out, and he also found torn clothes placed nearly by the side But judging fro, it was evident that the clothes were unable to dry fully
Other than that, there were no signs of human habitation in this cellar
“S-Sir, you’d better come up soon It’s damp and cold down there… It is harnored the village chief’s words He hooked his finger and beckoned the ranger to come forward Randolf quickly made his way towards Rhode with a curious expression
“Infor start soon Make sure to rest up ” Rhode paused for aChristie along”
