Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 515 Sand Knight
Rhodes stood behind a house, hiding his aura, quietly observing the group of humanoid creatures with scales and sitting cross-legged in the center of the square.

They seem to be a group of lizardmen.

Rhodes made a judgment after observing for a while.

There are colorful scales growing on these lizardmen, and the lizardmen with brighter scales sit in the front. The ones sitting in the front are a group of lizardmen with red scales on their bodies.

They sat cross-legged on the square, as if they were praying, and a statue of a sleeping dragon stood in front of them.

Just as Rhodes was about to continue approaching, a bell rang not far from the square.

Has it been discovered?
Rhodes also became a little nervous when he heard the bell.

It does not seem.

He saw the lizard people in the square stand up one after another, and left the square talking and laughing, as if they had spotted the invaders and were ready to fight.

But I, a human being, can't seem to mix in it.

Thinking of this, Rhodes turned and walked in the direction of Michelle.

Their purpose is to leave this desert, not to deal with the aliens living here.

If you want to find out whether this city is the one on the map, you just need to find a way to catch a single lizardman and ask about it later.

Rhodes found Michel in the corner of the street behind him.

"This is not a ghost town like in the story, but let's get out of here first." He said.

"What's wrong?" Michelle stared at Rhodes with a puzzled face.

"There are a group of lizardmen living in this city. If they find out, it will definitely cause some conflicts. It's better for us to leave here first. When it's completely dark, we can just run in and ask anyone." Rhode explained .

"I don't think it's necessary to do this..." Before Missel finished speaking, Rhodes saw a group of lizardmen walking towards them.

He hurriedly dragged Misaier to hide behind a nearby house.

"Let's go out of the city first." Rhodes said in a low voice.

Afterwards, he led Misail towards the city gate.

Not long after, the two left the city through the city gate.

Rhodes also closed the city gate smoothly, returning to the state before the two entered the city.

The two didn't stop until they walked to the back of a sand dune far away from the city.

"We don't need to go into the city to catch people and ask. The city in front of us is the one on the map. I just saw some characters written on the doors of a few houses. Those characters all contain the city on the map. The text marked next to it." Misaier pointed to the text next to a city on the map and said:

"I think this string of characters should be the name of the city. The houses with this string of characters on the house numbers I saw in the city before should be shops, hotels and the like. Add up the characters behind them, It should be equivalent to the meaning of XX city grocery store and XX city hotel."

"Then let's go ahead." Rhodes nodded.

He had been thinking about things related to the legend Michel told just now, and didn't notice these things.

At this moment, there was a wave of shaking under the two people's feet, and the shaking was still increasing.

"Is there an earthquake?" Rhodes asked doubtfully.

boom!
Countless sand and dust rose, and nearly ten lizardmen riding giant lizards, holding iron guns, and wearing metal armor got out of the sand.

They surrounded the two of them, chattering in their mouths.

Rhodes hastily turned on the recording function of the system, and turned on thought stealing.

"What are these two humanoid creatures? Why are they sneaking around the holy city?"

"Don't talk nonsense with them, they definitely don't understand. It must be uneasy and kind to sneak around outside the holy city on such a holy day. Just arrest and put him in prison."

"Which race are they? Why haven't I seen them?"

"They have white skin and thin flesh, so they should taste good."

……

Rhodes was pleasantly surprised to find that the recording function of the system could not only record what these lizardmen said, but also record the result of thought-stealing translation later.

In this way, Rhodes felt that it became much easier for him to learn foreign languages.

The topic of these lizardman knights has changed from asking who they are to discussing whether Rhodes and the others should be taken to prison or secretly eaten.

Rhodes felt very speechless after hearing that they started arguing about how much meat they could get.

I don't know how I would feel if I let Michel know their thoughts.

"Why are they arguing?" Michelle asked.

"They decided to eat us up, and they are arguing about how much everyone can get." Rhodes turned his head and replied.

"What?" Michelle opened his eyes wide, showing a very surprised expression.

"Keep arguing, it's mine if I grab it." A lizard man suddenly said loudly, and it stretched out its empty hand to grab Rhodes.

Does it think that I look easier to bully than Michelle?
Rhodes reached out and grabbed the claw extended by the lizard man, pulled it hard, and pulled it off the back of the huge lizard.

Then he swung the screaming lizard man as a weapon.

Before the lizardmen could react, they were hit in the chest by their companions, and stinky blood dripped from the lizard's back.

The remaining lizardmen picked up their iron guns and started attacking Rhodes, but the weapons in their hands couldn't even touch Rhodes' hairs.

"This creature looks far less powerful than us, how can it have such great power?" a lizard man exclaimed.

As soon as its voice fell, it was broken by the lizardman that Rhode swung past.

Not long after, all the lizardmen around were dead and wounded, none of them could move.

Rhodes threw the Lizardman whose bones were almost broken in his hands to the ground.

He felt that these lizardmen should judge the strength of creatures by looking at their physique and equipment.

And neither he nor Misel wore any equipment, and both of them were smaller than these alien races, so these lizardmen didn't even consider whether they would be Rhode's opponents.

"What kind of sorcery is this?" a lizard man on the ground said dying.

Rhodes walked around these lizardmen, picked the least injured one, and tied it to one of the terrain lizards.

"Do you want to experience what it's like to ride these giant lizards?" Rhodes turned his head and asked Michelle.

Rhodes was a little surprised. These giant lizards that acted as the mounts of the lizardmen neither attacked him nor fled in all directions after the battle started, but stood on the ground trembling slightly.

"You can try it, wait a minute, I have a way to communicate with these animals." Misaier began to rummage in his luggage while talking.

Not long after, she took out a bracelet from her luggage and put it on her hand.

Then she put her braceleted right hand on the head of one of the giant lizards and closed her eyes.

Rhodes felt that these giant lizards looked very docile. When he tied the lizard man to one of the giant lizards, it didn't resist at all.

So Rhodes jumped on the back of one of the giant lizards, and the giant lizard uttered a weak whine before lying on the ground.

Rhodes is still in the state of mind stealing, so he can know what these giant lizards are thinking.

But it may be because their intelligence is too low, Rhodes can only hear incomplete words one by one.

For example, "obedience", "immobility", and "quietness" need to be pondered before they can be understood.

He reached out and touched the yellow scales on the back of the giant lizard under him, and it felt almost like leather, not as hard as the scales of some ground dragons.

In this way, it will not feel uncomfortable as a means of transportation.

"There is good news, it is willing to take us out of this desert, they all know the way." Michelle opened his eyes and said to Rhodes.

"That's great," Rhodes said.

Michel climbed onto one of the giant lizards, and she patted the giant lizard beneath her.

The giant lizard turned around to look at Rhodes, then let out a howl, and then all the lizards followed it and ran in one direction, and stepped on a few lizardmen who were not completely dead on the ground.

Rhodes thought for a while, then turned around and used a Yang finger in the air to kill all the lizardmen who were not dead, so as not to let them return to the city and let people hunt them down.

"These giant lizards seem to be afraid of you," Michel said.

"It should be because I have been bathed in dragon blood." Rhodes replied, he thought that these giant lizards should have part of the blood of the earth dragon, and he was drenched in the blood of the golden dragon, so they would be afraid of him.

Rhodes turned to look at the lizardman tied to a giant lizard next to him, and it wasn't afraid of him at all.

I don't know if it's because of higher intelligence, or there are other reasons.

The lizard man was constantly insulting Rhodes on the back of the giant lizard, but Rhodes just wanted it to speak more, and it was up to it how much the lizard man's language could be learned.

It was completely dark, but the two of them could rest on the backs of the giant lizards as they continued on their way.

Rhodes turned on the system while lying on the back of the giant lizard, and began to learn the language of the lizard people.
