Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 510: Offensive and defensive battles in Pafield (IV)

Marilyn put down the scroll in her hand.

She looked up and stared at the room full of heavy, ancient books. Illuminated by the bright magical light, this luxuriously decorated and comfortable room brings a sense of peace of mind, bright red satin, soft velvet mattresses, and a princess-like bed with a glance Sublime bookshelf. This is exactly what Marin's room was where she lived before she left Gold City.

It's incredible.

Ma Lin's fingers stroked the books at hand, and she smiled. She grew up here since she was a child. Until now, Marin still remembers trying to practice noble etiquette in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror at the edge of the corner, and she remembers struggling at the desk higher than herself, struggling He flipped through the memories of ancient magic books made of thick paper, and never forgot the sight of each time his magic practice succeeded or failed. This place should be extremely familiar to herself, but in fact, when she returned to her room again, she felt strange for the first time. She even hesitated and wondered if she was in the wrong place. In her memory, her room did not have so many gorgeous decorations. It was simple and quiet. Outside the window should be a dense forest, green leaves and blue sky and white clouds-but she soon reacted. It was her own. Atonement room, not at home.

It is strange that the room where she has lived for more than ten years will make her feel stranger than the place where she has not lived for half a year, which even makes Marin feel a little funny.

"Marin."

The voice of a calm male surname came from behind Malin, and when she heard this voice, Malin hurriedly turned to the old man who stood at the door and looked at her with a smile.

"Master Father ......... has been missing for a long time."

"Yes."

Looking at the cute and beautiful daughter in front of her, a pride emerged from the old man's face, but with a lonely smile.

"Yeah ... It's been a long time, my child, since you left Golden City again to the present, the past is not long, but for me, it's been a long time, but I saw You are happy and fulfilling, then I have nothing to complain about. "

Upon hearing this, Marin turned a little red on her face. She lowered her head and looked at her toes with embarrassment. Although her father didn't say anything, Marin herself thought of Rod involuntarily. At the beginning, she just thought that person would be the object to be served in her destiny. In other words, at that time, she was more obsessive and curious about Rhodes. But as time passed, Marin found that her feelings for this man had changed—a feeling she had never experienced in her life.

"My daughter has grown up ..."

The old man looked at Malin with a smile. Of course, as her father, he did not ignore what his daughter wanted to hide, but this also made the old man feel relieved. Although the Shania family has always followed the ancient rules, as the leader of the family, he has to lead by example. However, after all, he was also a daughter, let alone a clever, beautiful and well-behaved child like Marlene. No one expected her to be miserable. Although it is said that if a sacrifice is to be made, the old patriarch will inevitably choose to sacrifice Malin, but it is impossible to say that he does not have any resistance to this.

But now, seeing his daughter was not harmed, and there was no pain and sadness, which made the old patriarch's heart completely relax.

The fledgling always leaves the nest.

"Well, my child, I'm here to compliment you. You performed very well at the previous meeting of the magic hub. We have unanimously decided to send a 'end gun' to this civil war, you As their commander, they will be on the battlefield on behalf of the Xenia family-I think this is not a difficult thing for you, is it? "

"Of course, my father."

Hearing this sentence, Ma Lin raised her head, a confident and determined expression appeared on her face.

"I assure you that I will never live up to the expectations of my family. This is my obligation and my responsibility."

"You are still so strong."

The old man walked to Marlene's side, reached out her hand, and stroked her long hair gently, and then held the girl's shoulders.

"Marin, you are still young, and not all your responsibilities need to be carried by you. We all know what Her Highness Lydia wants to do this time. So ........." said here, the old man paused, He wanted to say something, but soon, Marin shook her head with a smile.

"You need not say, my father, I understand what you mean. In fact, I had communicated with Rhode on this matter before I returned, and I understand that this war will not end so easily. , At least for now, we have no reason to end this war as soon as possible. "

"Oh?"

Hearing this sentence, the old man's eyes brightened.

"Is this what he said?"

"Yes, my father."

Ma Lin nodded, and at the same time she could not help showing a little proud expression. Indeed, as Marin said, before she set off for Gold City, she had a discussion with Rhodes about the current situation, and Rhodes reminded herself that Her Royal Highness would probably not be in a short time. End the war within. At that time, Marlene didn't know very well, but when she returned to Gold City, what she saw and heard confirmed Rhodes's conjecture. This could make Marin very proud. She didn't know that Rhodes was so aware of it, but she was sure that these were not Rhodes nonsense.

"So you don't need to worry about me, my father, I am the heir to the Xenia family. Since this is my destiny, I will bear the corresponding responsibilities. This is my choice, from the beginning , I have never regretted it. "

"I understand………………"

Staring at the bright, firm, hazy eyes of the girl in front of her, the old man smiled and nodded.

"It seems that you are really confident in him, and frankly, I am also very confident in him. So, now that a decision has been made, my child, do you have a good idea of ​​what to do next? I've got the news that he has reached the top of the Cloud and Mist with his men, and has also repelled the reformers' attack. If you want to go there, you need to be prepared as soon as possible. "

Upon hearing her father's suggestion, Marlene did not immediately answer this time. Instead, she lowered her head and meditated for a moment, then raised her head again.

"There is no need for that, my father. I have chosen my destination-the origin of flowers. I will lead the 'End Gun' to assist in the preparedness task."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing her daughter's answer, the old patriarch narrowed his eyes.

"Why did you choose where? It ’s not a good place. If you do n’t plan to meet with him, then I can introduce you to Bovana, where you face the front line of the Reformed Legion, me and the regiment there. I ’m also very familiar with him. You can ask him to take care of you ... ”

"No, thank you for your interest, my father."

After listening quietly to the old patriarch, Marin shook her head.

"Although I don't intend to meet with Rhodes, but I am his deputy after all-as an adjunct, it is my duty to cooperate with the superiors, and for me, going to the flowering field will be a very Good choice."

Speaking of which, Marin could not help reaching out, holding her wrist, and stroking the colorful bracelet.

I wonder how Lijie is doing now?

At the same time, in the tent on the top of the distant cloud and mist, the girl that Marin was missing was frustrated and upset. She sat tremblingly at the table, staring at the map in front of her, biting her teeth, It seemed like she was facing a high-level examination question, and almost killed her.

"Do you understand? Xiao Lijie? As an aide, Ping Yue is not only responsible for passing on the orders of the master, but also pay attention to those places that the master cannot notice. The master does not have three heads and six arms. Regardless, but that's because he doesn't need to do everything by himself. Understand? As an lieutenant, your duty is to help the owner detect these areas he will not care about and make corrections. "

"But, but ..."

Li Jie raised her head a little uneasily, looking at sitting next to herself, with a sly smile of Qilian.

"What if my judgment is wrong? What if I just think too much and mess up Mr. Rhode's order?"

"If you always want these, then you can never stand alone, Li Jie."

Rhodes sitting on the other side at the moment also said that he was looking at the military map in front of him, which was provided to them by the garrison here. Of course, in this era, there is nothing that can clearly mark the latitude and longitude and then use it in detail to the centimeter holographic area, so this map in front of it is also slightly rough and humble, but Rhode doesn't care, he used to be more than I have been to the top of the clouds once, and of course I know what there is. He knew this place even better than those defenders. The most important reason to come up with this map right now is to train Li Jie. As Rhodes said, no matter how reluctant she is, she still has to be alone.

"Don't forget, you and your subordinates, even if you do not become my lieutenant, you are also responsible for your subordinates, their life and death, actions are between your thoughts. This is something you should have faced with long ago. Right fact, Li Jie, and you are not ... "

Rhode's words didn't finish, because at this moment, Joey opened the tent, he walked in with a strange look, first glanced at Qilian and Lijie, then turned to Rhode.

"Boss, boss, sorry to disturb you ......... that, the commander of the fortress on the top of the cloud wants to talk to you."

"Oh? Please come in."

"No, this ... Boss, he said let you go out and talk to him ..."

Hearing this, Rhodes frowned, and then he stood up.

"Okay, I'll go now."

Under Joey's leadership, Rhodes stepped out of the tent and quickly saw the figure outside the mercenary camp-this is not how much Rhode cares about each other, but that the figure is too noticeable. His head was red, with messy hair standing upright, dressed in a dirty, not-so-sophisticated commander uniform, and his scum looked like it hadn't been treated for a long time. And when he was standing there, he was a dangling man. If he didn't stand, he didn't sit there. It was awkward to look at.

But Rhodes sank when he saw him, and soon his face became ugly.

Damn, how could this guy be? !! !!

The man in front of him is no stranger to Rhodes, because afterwards, he is also a very famous general in the Duchy of Muen.

"Red Fox" Garcia.

Born in poverty, he joined the army at a very young age, and later he was promoted step by step, becoming an outstanding general of the Duchy of Munn. This person is best at surprisingly winning. This is similar to Rhodes. They don't like to pursue that kind of confrontation, but are rather keen on asymmetrical methods such as stabbing a knife from the back and applying medicine. In the game, the fighting power against the night dragon country, Garcia also fully demonstrated his ability. He once led an elite army to penetrate the enemy, successfully delayed the advance of the undead army, and successfully protected one side. The people retreated to Gold City. But unfortunately, compared to his mind, this commander is really lacking in strength. In the end, he did not return safely from the rear of the undead army, but was completely killed by those undead.

However, although he is also a tragic hero in the Principality of Munn, in fact, players do not have any favorable feelings for this "red fox". In fact, there are many controversies surrounding this person, and even later, everyone did not call him the original nickname. And it has a special nickname-foreign players call him "red beard", while domestic players call it "Longyang Jun" with bad intentions.

Because according to the results of the player's survey, this guy who looks ridiculous and incomparable is actually a young man who likes young men, to be precise, a pervert who likes young men.

Rhodes still remembers that many players had posted complaints about Garcia's hobbies, and he was also a public servant, and had eaten tofu of many male surname players. This made those players hate and annoyed. In the end, few players with male surnames dared to take on the tasks of Garcia's troops.

Damn it, although I don't really know where the pervert stayed before promotion, but it should not be on the top of the clouds!

Thinking of this, Rhodes could not help but secretly defame him. He had known that this pervert was here, and he would not come to this ghost place if he was killed. And now ......... it's really troublesome! !!

Holding such an idea, Rhodes could not help lowering his face and walking toward the man standing outside the station like a ghost. When Rod walked in front of the other party, he soon noticed that there was a flash of unpleasant light in the gloomy eyes of "Red Fox". But soon, Garcia responded. He smiled and grabbed his hair, then sent Rhodes a less formal military salute.

"Hello, meet for the first time. Dear Mr. Rhodes, I am Garcia, the commander of the top of the cloud and fog. On behalf of my subordinates, I thank you for your help. I really did not expect that in such an era, I can still see such a situation. The enthusiastic nobles are willing to come to the front, and frankly I am really surprised. "

Garcia, who met for the first time, did not seem to be as obscene and perverted as rumored, but Rhode just stared at each other coldly, silently, and at the same time reached out to sort out his clothes.

In the eyes of onlookers, the two men seemed to be two extremes. Garcia smiled happily, without any seriousness that the fortress commander should have. He was sloppy and casual. But in contrast, Rhode, who stood in front of him, was serious and indifferent. The flat aristocratic dress was meticulous, without even the slightest folds, and the whole person stood straight like a javelin-this is simply two extreme contrasts.

"There is nothing to thank, Mr. Garcia."

It wasn't until Garcia's remarks finished that Rhodes spoke.

"I just did what a person in the Duchy of Munn should do. This is not commendable. Moreover, the situation is so tense at the moment. I would like to know the current deployment situation on the top of the cloud and fog. After all, the terrain here is very high. Dangerous, there is a possibility of problems if we are not careful. I think we should strengthen the line of defense before we talk about other issues. "

"That's for sure, Mr. Rhodes."

Although Rhode's tone was very cold and rude, it sounded more like a superior commanding a subordinate, but Garcia was not irritated at all, and he still had that grinning expression and spread his hands and shook his hands. shoulder.

"Yes, you are right, we really need to consider this ... ...... yes, why not? I will prepare a rich dinner for you in the fortress in the afternoon to welcome you and express my gratitude. By that time Let ’s talk about this again. What do you think? "

"Good intentions, but I think this is not the time to engage in this kind of activity. The threat of the Southern Army is imminent. Moreover, I don't think that with the current fortress strength at the top of the cloud and mist, it seems that it is not enough to sit back and relax. "

"Of course, as you said, Mr. Rhodes. But I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. Because of this, the atmosphere in the fortress is currently very tense. Of course, as a soldier, tension is necessary. But if you don't let If they relax, they can't just be tight. They always have to relax ... "

It's really annoying.

Rhodes frowned. He'd had enough of this guy. If he could, he didn't want to keep tangling with this guy.

Perhaps he heard Rhode's voice, and at this moment, suddenly a soldier ran over and gasped.

"Master Commander! Those guys are offensive again! This time it is on the north line! We can't hold it anymore!"

Hearing this sentence, Garcia's smile shrank momentarily, but soon, it stretched again. Then he looked at Rhodes again.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Rhode. It looks like your banquet is going to be postponed. Don't mind acting with us."
