Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 318: Hidden snake

Mobis felt a headache.

After he lost his personal battle with Starlight, many people have expressed dissatisfaction with him, although there are many outside to justify Tianjian, while despising Starlight's invincible voice. However, these voices are not helpful for solidifying the position of Mobis. Sky Sword does not represent the poor masses in the south like the wings of liberty, but the upper affluent class. Because of this, Mobis ’s The pressure is also very great. Many wealthy merchants and aristocrats in the south have sent people to express their dissatisfaction with themselves, plainly or secretly. These are the funders of the Tianjian Guild. In their opinion, no matter how Tianjian loses, it loses anyway. I have spent so many days supporting the Tianjian Guild, not to make myself insulted and ridiculed in front of the Yankees, let alone Starlight is just a mercenary group that has not been established for only half a year. Can lose, what else can they not do?

Mobis has even faintly heard some rumors. If their performance in the group battle cannot satisfy these funders, they may even withdraw their funding, or --- find a new one that can make Tianjian Not being eliminated by a **** mercenary group in the first round will be the chairman.

This is the tragedy of the mercenary guild. They have huge power, but they need to maintain it with money. The mercenary guild that lost its autonomous surname is to some extent a private army of some interest groups. In order to prevent this trend, various countries have deliberately limited the number of mercenary guilds, but this has become a soft underbelly of mercenary guilds-the number of people limited by rules is far less than the number used by mercenary guilds to maintain their sphere of influence. . This forced the mercenary guilds to be unable to be self-sufficient, and thus had to rely on external forces and capital. As a result, they also lacked sufficient autonomy and reading surnames. The president of a powerful mercenary guild like Mobis is no exception. No matter how strong his personal strength is, he is worthless in front of money. Mercenary guilds such as the Four Great Guilds, which have been rooted in the region for many years, have long been fused with those forces, just like vines climbing on tree trunks, and they cannot be separated from them at all.

This is also the sorrow of the mercenary guild, and also the reason why Rhodes tried to avoid falling into it too-he didn't want to live the same kind of life that people look at.

It is very depressing to be obedient to others, but is it more depressing to be obedient to others with great strength?

But Mobis's headache is not this. Although the current situation is not very good for him, Mobis believes that he can rely on his leadership and influence in the guild to survive the crisis and Not difficult. As long as the next team battle can win, then it is not a problem ... For his team, Mobis is still very confident.

What gave him a headache was that Carlodi was gone.

Although the uncle Ping Yue was very arrogant, he still kept his promise. Mobis did not know what Carodi was doing here. As Rhodes guessed, he was only accepted by the orders of the southern nobles and wealthy merchants. The uncle from the Council of Light went to his mercenary regiment to perform a "secret mission". As for what exactly this mission was, Mobis was not qualified to ask.

Although in terms of strength, Mobis is even stronger than Carodi.

It's uncomfortable to whisper in front of people who are weaker than yourself. But anyway, both sides can be regarded as "Chapter Three of the Law". Mobis doesn't care about Carlo's affairs, and Carlodi can't control what he wants to do the rest of the time except when he appears during the game.

But now, it's time to start the team battle, and Carodi hasn't even appeared yet?

Is there something wrong with him?

Thinking of this, Mobis could not help but feel uneasy. He was born to the Southern Nobles. Naturally, the relationship between the wealthy merchants of the South and the Parliament of the Kingdom of Light was very clear. This Carodi was sent by the Parliament. In case if something really happened … Thinking of this, Mobis shivered. He didn't know what Carodi was here for, but it was definitely not an easy task. In fact, Mobis did not want to accept this trouble. But as said before, a mercenary guild whose economic lifeline is subject to others, even if your president is a legendary god, there is only a good bow in front of money ...

So Mobis was always worried about what happened to Carodi. Now, the team battle is about to start. They should have set off for the arena, but they did not see Carodi's appearance, which made Mobis. Very disturbed and worried. You must know that the other party is a secret agent of the kingdom of light. Now Golden City is engaged in the Mid-Summer Festival ... Damn it, the big-bellied **** **** who have no idea of ​​anything but eating, playing, and playing, just leave me here, trouble It's all my back. If Carodi fell into the hands of Lydia's **** tyrant, would she and her men be able to walk out of the Golden City alive?

When he thought of it, Mobis trembled. He suddenly felt that he hadn't had much time to admire the fallen leaves in the red maple forest ...

"Yes, President!"

Just as Mobis was lying upset, Golan ran into the room panting, which surprised the old Mobis, hurriedly standing up while pressing the hilt of his waist, watching the window vigilantly. --- Damn, is it true that Lao Tzu's premonition is so accurate? That little girl sent someone to come?

But soon, Mobis discovered that Golan's expression was a little surprised, but there was no fear or anxiety. Instead, he stared at himself with a puzzled look, which made Mobis aware that The reality of his watch was a little weird. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and sat down again.

"What's going on? What happened? Isn't it that you should be prepared for group battles in such a panic?"

"I'm here for this, Chief."

Golan wiped the sweat on his face, and looked at Mobis with a strange expression.

"That's it, me, I just got news from the arena over there, this fight doesn't have to be compared. Because Starlight ... abstained!"

"Abstain?"

Hearing this sentence, Mobis opened his eyes a little bit surprised and stared at Golan unbelievably. After a moment, he frowned.

"What are you talking about? Why? They quit the game for a reason."

"This ... I did ask, but according to them, it seems that there was someone injured at Starlight after the personal battle yesterday, and today their number is not enough to participate in the game, so ... they abstained."

"That's it ..."

Hearing Golan's statement, Mobis lowered his head. What Golan said is not without reason. Yesterday everyone saw Annie's injury, but according to the rules, shouldn't the Star Mercenary Regiment be an alternate member? Although the Shield Warrior girl was injured, wasn't the candidate just for this? As for the others? Rhodes didn't say anything, where was Qilian and Malin a little hurt?

What is Xingguang doing?

For a while, even the well-intentioned Mobis could not figure out what Starlight was doing. At the Midsummer Festival, abstaining would be ridiculed, wouldn't they not worry about what their actions would bring them. Trouble? After all, in the mercenary world, whether you can fight or not is a matter of strength, but whether you dare to fight is a matter of guts. The former can be understood, but the latter will be laughed at. The reason why Starlight made this decision ... Is it really that simple because someone was injured? still is……

and many more.

Thinking of this, Mobis was suddenly shocked.

Carodi did not return, Starlight abstained ... Did Carodi go towards Starlight?

But ... Xingguang is just a small mercenary regiment. Where is it worthy for Carodi to travel thousands of miles from the kingdom of light to deal with them?

Mobis couldn't figure it out, but at this moment he was not as nervous as before, but even so, Mobis still looked up, looked at Golan, and then issued an order.

"Go, investigate, for what reason did Starlight give up the team war, the more detailed the better!"

"Yes, sir."

Although I don't know why Mobis gave this order, Golan nodded and turned away. Looking at the back of Golan's departure, Mobis sighed a long time, then he leaned back on the chair, only feeling very tired and helpless.

This starlight-what is going on?

There is a question, not just Mobis.

"Mr. Rhodes, why is this?"

At the moment in the resident, Marin frowned with confusion, asking Rhodes the same question.

"Even if we are weak, I think we can at least try ..."

"No, Malin, this is not a question of strength."

Rhodes waved his hand and interrupted Marin's speech, which made Marin widen her eyes in surprise, staring at Rhodes, not understanding what he meant.

"First of all, our strength is indeed not sufficient. Before, we only prepared training for personal warfare, but we did not prepare for training in team warfare. In this case, we rush to play will only give people a laugh. Second ... I do n’t want you to spend your energy in this irrelevant team battle. You know, our final opponents are very powerful, and I do n’t want any surprises before that. For us, there is nothing like getting a personal match. Victory is more important and priority, so I chose to give up the team battle. "

Speaking of which, Rhode held out a finger. I don't know if it was an illusion, Malinjue suddenly saw a very happy smile from those dark eyes.

"What's more, Miss Marlene, don't forget that we still have a companion. It would not be conducive to stability and unity if we were to finish eating alone."

"but……"

Marilyn is not a fool. As long as Rhode reminds her, she immediately understands the reason, but ...

"Mr. Rhode, are you so confident in them? Isn't I worried that in case they live up to your expectations ..."

"You're wrong again, Marilyn."

But this time, Rhin was interrupted by Rhin before he finished, and he waved again, shrugging his shoulders.

"I'm not confident in them, I'm confident in myself ... you will soon understand what I mean."
