Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 405
Miles blushed after hearing Rhode's words, and he was too embarrassed to answer for a long time. Fortunately, the tavern owner who was feeding the horses came in at this time, asked him what he wanted to eat, and helped him change the subject.

Not long after that, Misaier and his party paid the money and left the tavern.

While eating food, Miles asked Rhodes and the others about the situation in Everwinter City, and Al told Miles the whole process of the battle yesterday morning vividly.

"I advise you not to go to Eternal Winter City. The city walls there have collapsed. If the dragon army comes again, you will definitely die." Achim said to Miles.

"I'm almost reaching my destination. It's impossible for me to go back like this. Even if I might die, I still want to see it." Miles shook his head.

Rhodes was a little surprised when he heard it. In his impression, Miles was a very timid person who was afraid of death. What did he go through during this period of time that made him change so much.

After destroying the food in front of them, Rhodes said goodbye to Miles, and left the small village on their horses.

A few days later, the three of them arrived at a city that Rhodes was very familiar with, Icestone City.

Although Rhodes did not live in this city for too long after crossing, the original owner spent several winters in this small city, and the memory of this city remained.

The three of them encountered a group of robbers on the road before, but they were easily subdued by Rhodes. They knelt and begged Rhodes to let them go, and finally handed them over to the local lord, earning some chivalry points.

"Shall we take a rest in this city?" Achim said, looking at the city in front of him.

Al looked up at the sky: "Before you know it, it's almost night again, so let's rest here tonight."

Although Xuefeng Province is not as cold as the Extreme North Province, resting in the wild at night is also very uncomfortable, and besides the cold, there is also the possibility of being attacked by wild animals at night.

"I have no opinion." Rhode expressed his opinion after seeing Al looking at him.

It just so happened that he could go to that cave to have a look tonight, maybe he could get some unexpected gains.

The three walked into the city, and Rhodes took them with ease to the tavern "Frostwolf's Fang" where he lived when he crossed.

The current tavern is not very lively. The adventurers either went to the north of Eternal Winter City to resist the dragon, or went to the south of Winterfell Stronghold to deal with the imperial army.

The tavern owner was lying on the counter and yawning boredly. Compared to the last time Rhodes saw him, he looked much older.

The three found the cleanest-looking table and sat down.

"Excuse me, what do you need?" The tavern owner came over.

"Our wine here is very special, you can try it... Didn't you die a few years ago?" The tavern owner looked at Rhodes with his mouth wide open.

"What are you talking about?" Rhodes asked pretending to be puzzled. Of course he knew that the original owner died in this tavern, otherwise he would not have transmigrated into this body.

"It's nothing, I should have made a mistake. If he is still alive, he will be a few years older than you." The tavern owner shook his head, thinking that he just met someone who looked very similar to the young man who died in his tavern .

"Do you know someone who looks like me?" Rhodes asked.

"There was indeed one, but he died a few years ago, in my tavern. There were no wounds on his body. No one knew the cause of his death, so I remember it very clearly. .” The tavern owner explained.

Rhodes nodded: "Maybe it was killed by some kind of poison, a poison that you don't know."

"Don't talk about this kind of thing, it sounds weird." Achim said.

"Excuse me, what do you want to eat?" the tavern owner asked.

……

After dinner, Rhodes left the tavern after talking to Al. He left Icestone City on horseback and ran towards Otto's cave.

It didn't take long before he arrived at the cave.

He got off the horse, tied it to a nearby tree, and used the Mage Ball to check the situation in the cave.

It turned out that a magic barrier was arranged inside to prevent his spiritual power from entering.

After Rhodes lit a torch bought by the tavern owner, he walked into the cave with the torch.

Even if there were any traps inside, they couldn't threaten him.

Going straight along the dark cave, Rhodes came to the closed stone door. He remembered that there was a hidden button on the ground, and the stone door would be lifted after pressing the button.

There is also a button on the stone gate, which can open two hidden passages behind him. He remembered that he was locked outside the stone gate.

Then, in desperation, he began to fumble around on the stone gate, accidentally triggering the mechanism and opening the passage hidden behind him.

Rhodes fumbled on the stone gate again. It didn't take long before he felt that he seemed to have triggered a certain mechanism. He turned around and saw three passages behind him.

He remembered that he took the middle passage and entered the unfinished tomb.

Later, when they came out of the passage in the middle, Baron walked in a random direction with Hamer on his back, and the four of them went outside.

Rhodes didn't remember exactly which side he went to. He could confirm the passages on the left and right, one of which must lead to the outside of the cave, and the other passage should lead to another tomb.

He chose the passage in the middle, but when he wanted to go back, he encountered a ghoul who was much weaker than him at that time, and that ghoul should have come out of the remaining passage of.

Rhodes wondered why he forgot about it after leaving here, and when he saw the three passages again, he remembered that there were three passages here, not two.

At this time, the stone door behind Rhodes suddenly opened.

A somewhat elderly man came out from behind the stone gate.

"Ah, so this cave is already inhabited." Rhodes turned around and pretended to be surprised. He didn't expect that Otto was still alive.

"Who are you?" Otto asked.

"I'm an adventurer passing by. When I saw it was dark, I planned to stay in this cave for one night. I didn't expect this cave to be inhabited." Rhodes explained.

"Adventurer?" Otto said, "I was also an adventurer before, but I lived in seclusion in this cave after my life as an adventurer.

If you don't have a place to live, you can stay with me for one night, go in, there are more beds inside. "

Otto opened the stone door while talking.

"Thank you so much, you are such a good person." Rhode followed Otto and walked in.

"It's okay." Otto looked at Rhodes with a smile on his face, just like a hunter looking at his prey.

Rhodes also looked at Otto with a smile on his face.
