Chapter 143 Rhodes, when will you go out next time?
On the way back, we took the train to Onibasi Station.
This time there was no need for Rhodes to forcefully occupy a seat. Alzack mustered up the courage to sit in the same row as Bisca.
However, there was still a gap between the two of them. One of them turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, and the other looked down at the aisle.
Rhodes took out the playing cards to lighten the atmosphere. He really didn't care about it from now on and let Alzak do his best.
It feels like the relationship between these two people may enter the love stage at any time, maybe faster than his progress.
envious.
Rhodes will go back and practice hard for a few more days, and then choose a suitable mission to do with Elfman.
The journey was uneventful, but the weather turned gloomy as we approached Magnolia.
Bisca accidentally glanced out the window: "Who is that person?"
Rhodes and Alzack looked out the window. On the hill in the suburbs, stood a man in a cloak with several staffs on his back.
Rhodes said: "That one is dressed like Mister Gang, right? I saw him once a few days ago, but unfortunately I didn't see his face."
Arzak said: "So this is what Mistergang is like... He wrapped himself up too exaggeratedly, right?"
It was the first time for him and Bisca to see Mistgun, and they had been hypnotized by him several times before.
If it weren't for today, I might not be able to recognize him if I see him on the street in the future.
Rhodes encouraged: "Hey, do you want to take the opportunity to hit him twice with the black gun?"
Bisca was stunned: "Why?"
"I'm unhappy. Didn't you hit your head when you fell under hypnosis?" Rhodes thought about his own experience of being hypnotized. At the time...
Huh? It seemed that he and Mira fell together.
But I was a little frightened and didn't pay attention.
Could it be that Mistagon is actually a good person?
No, no, you can't settle accounts like this. Being rude is rude.
"I think it's a good idea." Arzak was a little moved. He secretly shot a tranquilizer bomb or something to make the guy sleep in the wild as revenge. It wasn't too much at all.
"But it's not good now. He seems to be doing something important." Bisca frowned, "Is that practicing?"
At this time, Mistergang inserted five staffs into the ground, and a small vortex was forming in the clouds in the sky, as if it was about to open a hole in the sky.
The hem of Mistagon's clothes and cloak were fluttering in the wind, and he held the staff in the middle with both hands.
The magic array lights up layer by layer from bottom to top, and the light shines into the clouds.
The hole in the sky quickly shrank, and the whirlpool just appeared again, but this time it rotated in the opposite direction, became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared, as if nothing had happened.
Mistergang's tense body relaxed, and he slowly inserted the staffs back one by one. His back looked a little embarrassed when he left.
Rhodes asked: "What kind of magic can affect weather clouds?"
"The magic cluster cannon can probably break up a small cloud." Bisca said, "Is that the power of one of the strongest candidates in the guild? How strong is he?"
"I don't know," Arzak said, "but it doesn't look like he is practicing."
"Go back and ask the president." Rhodes remembered that Mira had said that Mystergang had been near Magnolia recently.
In this case, that was probably what he was doing, and that was why he stayed nearby.
Rhodes looked at the gloomy sky. Could it be that the mission of Mist Ridge is... artificial rainfall?
…
"Mistgang, he has his mission, don't worry about him." Makarov skipped the topic of Mistgang.
When the three of them heard what he said, they could only think that it was a high-level mission that required confidentiality.
Rhodes reported the mission to the president and Mira, praising Alzack and Bisca's marksmanship and combat effectiveness.
Alzak and Bisca in turn praised Rhodes for his pre-war preparations and combat cooperation.
The existence of Rhodes saved them a lot of time, reduced a lot of trouble, and even solved many minor problems along the way.
Alzak added silently in his mind and helped solve a big problem. Mira wrote a few words on the register and smiled: "The confirmation is complete, congratulations."
She looked at Rhodes, her eyes burning with gossip, probably because she wanted to hear the stories that happened on the road.
Makarov said with a smile: "You did a good job."
Although it is not a very difficult task, it can kill all the bandits in a short time without any accidents and destroy a lot of things.
This was already worthy of his compliment "very good".
"Oh, by the way." Rhode suggested, "We haven't had lunch yet, let's have a meal together to celebrate? Well... just in the guild."
Alzak glanced at Bisca quietly: "I, I have no problem."
Bisca also glanced at Alzack quietly: "Okay, okay."
Although we had dinner together yesterday, it was on the way to a mission and in the guild!
Rhodes sighed inwardly, originally thinking of leaving them alone in the future.
But Mira obviously wants to read gossip.
So Rhodes sold Alzac very unfaithfully.
That's not right. From his point of view, it should be considered very loyal.
If I were my former roommate, I would have worked so hard to be a wingman, not to mention being a loyal person, even being a foster father.
"Has Mira eaten?" Rhodes asked again, "Do you want to join us?"
Mira blinked: "Is it convenient?"
"Of course." Alzack thought he had seen through Rhode's little thoughts and felt that he had to be loyal.
Bisca probably thought so too, as just one more person could ease the awkward atmosphere.
So the four of them gathered at a table in the guild. The atmosphere was not awkward, but it was very strange.
Rod and Mira thought about eating Alzack and Bisca's melons, but Alzac and Bisca thought they were eating Rod and Mira's melons.
A few people were eating and talking about their experiences yesterday. The busybodies in the guild felt that they had taken advantage of these four people.
So at noon that day, everyone had all-you-can-eat, all-you-can-eat melon, and even a little full.
"Wrong decision..." Rhodes looked regretful afterwards, "I originally wanted to take you to watch the excitement up close, but I didn't expect it to become so weird in the end."
Mira laughed: "But don't you think this is also interesting?"
Rhodes rarely complained about Mira: "...it's really weird that you find it interesting..."
Makarov suddenly asked: "Rhode, when do you plan to go out next time? Is there anyone who wants to form a team?"
"President, why are you here again?" Rhodes wondered whether he should laugh or cry, "I just came back. Did someone try to force you to write a self-reflection letter again?"
"That's not the problem." Makarov said, "It's already November, and the S-class mage promotion exam is next month.
Based on your level, as long as you work harder, you can hope to participate. But...do you remember how many tasks you completed in total? "
"Uh... four..." Rhode counted, "One of them is Mira taking care of me, so it's okay to count it as three."
Makarov sighed: "Three missions in four months. Although the difficulty is not low and they are completed very well, the number... is really too few."
The S-level exam will be held in mid-December, but the qualifications for the exam will be decided at the beginning of the month.
In other words, if Rhodes wants to participate, the time left for him is only this month.
With only three mission experiences, it is absolutely impossible for him to participate.
Qualification for the S-level examination requires consideration of a person's magic, will, mind, experience and other factors. As long as you have the ability recognized by the president in one or more aspects, you can obtain the qualification.
For example, Lebby in the main drama has obtained the qualification. In terms of strength, she should be the weakest one, far worse than S-class. That obviously means that she has met the standards in other aspects. My personal preference should be in terms of brains and experience.
(Quietly: Of course, it’s possible that Mr. Mashima wants Tielong to join the group in a reasonable way.)
