Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 87: Startled conclusion

When the sun rose again from the horizon, the battle was already over.

Judging from the results, this is a rare victory in the kingdom of light. The record of the entire undead army from the invasion of the kingdom of night has only been this time. It seems to be very powerful. According to the truth, at this time, the light council should promote its own record to inspire people. However, this is not the case. Immediately after the battle, the frustrated military ministry directly passed a written complaint to the Council of Light, suing Rhodes and ordering the soldiers to launch a brutal inhuman attack on them in the rear!

In fact, it ’s no wonder that the [***] department of Light is so anxious and corrupt. Although Andre saw that Rhode ’s plan, but some idiots did not even see what Rhode wanted, they just felt that they could n’t stop it. They lived and wanted to take the opportunity to retreat and escape, but they did not expect that they had just been removed from the city wall and were blocked by the oversight team of the southern front, asking them to return to the battlefield to fight. The first-line legions that had managed to escape from birth were naturally not obedient to this. So soon, they encountered the attack of the other party. The scared soldiers who were originally under the attack of the undead army were naturally not the opponents of the oversight team, only for a moment. Kung Fu was completely wiped out. After seeing this scene, those other soldiers who had planned to retreat from the front line also suddenly drummed in their hearts and gave up the unrealistic idea.

However, it is impossible to say that they have no resentment against each other in the heart, especially after the end of the battle, the light of the parliamentary army immediately questioned aggressively, and the answer obtained was of course ... Rhode's order. This naturally made the military extremely angry. They found Rhodes, but the answer almost did not make them angry.

"I was worried that the northern defense line would completely collapse under the constant attack of the enemy, so I specially sent people to‘ reinforce ”. '

Rhode leaned back in his chair, looking at the blue iron in front of his eyes leisurely, clenching his fists, shaking the representative of the military department. The understatement said, not knowing whether it was intentional or not, he bit the word "reinforcement" very heavily.

"Although our two sides belong to different camps, our goals are the same, that is to guard the Winter Castle, prevent the invasion of the undead army, and protect the people behind from death. To this goal, we should abandon each other I ’m in conflict with each other, and the northern defense line is crumbling under the attack of the undead army, which makes me very worried, so just in case, I have to take some drastic measures to ensure that our victory will not be due to some people. I lost my stupidity ......... It turns out that my judgment is correct. "

Hearing Rhode's answer, the representative of the military department was very complex, but couldn't say a word. Because this is indeed the case. At that time, many people saw that the retired soldiers would retreat backward, and they were more or less in the thought of taking the opportunity to evacuate. However, after seeing those unlucky eggs finally ending, they had to converge. Inner thoughts, keep fighting. If no one was staring at that time at the time, I'm afraid they would have taken the opportunity. By that time, it was the military department that was dumb, and now, at least, they were victorious, and what was lost was not the army directly under the Council of Light. What Rhode did, anyhow, was to keep the military department's face.

But the problem is that Rhodes is too naked. "I do n’t want to hurry up and give you face, kneel down and sing and thank the Lord Ron." The birds needed their protest, but the problem was that this tone could not be tolerated like this, and as a result, they directly reported to the Council of Light. After receiving this news, the Light Council was overjoyed. They immediately found the church and declared that Rhodes violated the agreement, because the original agreement stipulated that the military department did not order Rhodes, and Rhodes did not interfere with the military department's orders. Now Rhode's approach obviously violates the agreement, so invalidating the agreement is invalid!

In the face of the Light Council, Rhodes said calmly that he had not interfered with the Order of the Parliamentary Military of Light at all, because he had not given any orders to the northern line of defense and the military. As for why he sent the Overseer behind the northern line, Rhode's answer was calm.

"I want to make sure that the results of the southern defence will not be lost."

He didn't regard the soldiers on the northern defense line as being with him all the same, so naturally he could not talk about interference or non-interference. In the end, the church did not adopt the light of the parliament, but declared the agreement effective, because Rhodes did not directly make any suggestions and orders to the military parliament of the light, he did not even send people to communicate, And the agreement does not stipulate what Rhodes should do if he attacks the army under the Light Council, then this is not within the scope of the church's concern. And the Light Council itself did not write about what would happen to them if Rhodes attacked them, because they originally planned to take advantage of this opportunity to attack Rhodes. If they wrote it, they might pit themselves. I didn't expect it, but I didn't write it in now, so I pitted them. This makes the Light Council helpless, and has nothing to say.

However, as a vanguard of the Reflective Council, Rhodes has always been anxious. Just after the Light Council raised objections, Rhode asked the Council of Light through the church to obtain what was stated in the previous agreement. pension! !!

In the previous battle, Rhodes generously sacrificed all his 4,500 fire guards on the battlefield, but this sacrifice was not in vain. With the self-detonation ability of the fire elemental creature, these 4,500 The sacrifice of a hundred fire guards in exchange for the 30,000 troops of the other side collapsed, which can be considered a very cost-effective business. Only five hundred sea elves were spared. Originally, Rhodes took Agawi and other sea elves to experience it. Naturally, they would not be stupid enough to let them die. But those fire elemental creatures ......... Then talk about it.

In the face of this request from Rhodes, the Council of Light was unhappy, because according to the agreement, the pension required by Rhodes for each war dead is 3,000 gold coins!

That's three thousand gold coins!

And in the light continent, the pension for the average soldier who died in battle is only a few hundred gold coins, but Rhodes is a lion's mouth, and it will cost three thousand! This is also the main reason why the agreement between the Light Council and Rhodes has not been negotiated before. The Light Council believes that your soldiers are not worth 3,000 gold coins even if they are made of gold. It is almost equivalent to remove one zero. And of course, Rhodes was unwilling to relax. He even claimed that his valuable soldiers were priceless, and the three thousand gold coins were still low. Otherwise, he originally planned to start at five thousand, and he would not cap it.

Now, according to the previous agreement, the Light Council will pay the pension of 4,500 "war dead" of Rhodes "sacrifice", each of them 3,000 gold coins, a total of 4,500 ... This means that the light council has to pay Rhodes nearly 33.5 million gold coins for pension compensation! !!

This is naturally reluctant to the Council of Light. If Rhodes actually killed 4,500 elite soldiers, they can still be slightly balanced in their hearts. After all, the elite is hard to find with lanterns. From them, The cost of training and equipment is not a small number. If they can dig such a piece of meat from Rhodes, they can still accept it. But there are 4,500 fire elemental creatures ......... how is this going on?

Protests were useless. They had already protested. When Rhodes first arrived, the Light Council wanted to abolish the agreement. As a result, the church did not agree because the agreement did not stipulate that the race of reinforcements must be human. So Rhodes doesn't care what they bring. Now, what would the Light Council want to say? Of course, they can talk nonsense with their eyes open, indicating that Rhodes' reinforcements did not play the slightest role on the battlefield, thereby weakening their important surnames. But is this possible? If there is only one army in the country of light, the problem is the joint army, and everyone is not a fool. Both the parliamentarians of light and the parliamentarians of reflection are very clear that if it were not for the soldiers under Rhodes and the image of the holy girl he brought, it would be a dream to wipe out the enemy. If Rhodes's army has no sense of existence in this battle, they can only lie to themselves.

In the end, the council of light was helpless, and they originally looked to Rhode to send someone there, and then ridiculed and vented some of the anger in their hearts, and the money was not vain. But they waited, waited, and waited to see through the autumn waters. The result was not Rhodes or his subordinates, but representatives of the church-they came to confirm and transfer the pension according to Rhode's request.

From the beginning to the end, Rhodes did not give the Light Council a chance to breathe out.

However, Rhodes did not care about the situation of the Light Council. Although the business and trade of Dragon Soul Mainland was not as developed as the Earth, it was not particularly backward. He asked the church to help him. On the one hand, he did not want to give the Light Council a chance. Strangling them, on the other hand, is to use the church's financial network, so that without the need to come forward, the 13 million gold coins are directly transferred to the fortress of the Atonement. Of course, this does not mean that the church will bring 13 million gold coins to run around. Dragon Soul Mainland has a mature financial system. Ping Yueli used gold, silver and copper coins for trading. However, when making large transfers, platinum coins and equivalent diamonds are used for exchange, and further upwards, special currencies unique to the major forces are required. For example, the paradise coin of the land of light is made of platinum and belt. A magical crystal is cast, and one heavenly coin is equal to ten thousand gold coins, so the church only needs to send 1,350 heavenly coins in a box to the place of atonement. If Rhodes needs it, It can be directly converted into platinum coins or even gold coins to use, of course, if he only uses the construction system, I am afraid that even the exchange is unnecessary .........

It's just that the currencies unique to each power are not the same in terms of pricing. Like the Paradise of Light and the Paradise of Night, both the Paradise Coin and the Evil Soul Coin are high-value currencies. The former is minted with platinum and magic crystal. The other is to use the prism of the soul, which is regarded as the currency common to the entire Dragon Soul continent, but conversely, things like blood coins are meaningless except for a few copper coins in hell. But it is such a variety of different currency types, but the church is able to unify them completely and form a complete financial circulation system in the entire Dragon Soul continent-to a certain extent, the country of France has already ruled the world.

However, this is not a concern for Rhodes. After defeating the Undead Legion, he did not withdraw immediately. On the one hand, because of the destruction of the Undead Legion, Lilian's frontline tour finally started again, and before that, Rhode naturally wanted to meet Lilian. On the other hand, he also needs to wait for Sonia's report.

Soon after the war, Sonia came again as a representative of the Council of Light. Of course, on the surface she came to protest against Rhodes, but in fact Sonia came to report to Rhodes. Rhode asked her to investigate inside information about Lilian's failure to appear on the front line in time. As for the protest ... Sonia didn't take it for granted.

But the conclusions from Sonia's investigation surprised Rhodes.

"you sure?"

Rhodes sat in his chair, frowning, and looked at Sonia slightly in amazement. In the face of Rhode's inquiry, Sonia nodded and answered with a very positive answer.

"Yes, master, I'm sure. The reason why Her Majesty Lilian didn't come to the front was because of security issues. The Council of Light thought that Her Majesty Lilian's trip to the Winter Winter Castle when the battle was about to erupt, Because the delay of Lilian ’s journey to the front was postponed, Lilian also accepted the advice of the Council of Light, and went to the front after the battle in Winter Winter Castle was over.

This is no different from the rumors Rhodes had heard before, but because of this, Rhodes felt incredible. For this reason, it is really ......... too, too, too ... how to say? He didn't know what to say. At first Rhodes felt that the parliament of the Light was an excuse for making excuses, but now he feels that this truth is truly inferior. However, he was sure that Sonia was indeed loyal to herself-otherwise she would never have come up with such an idiot's findings.

But ... how is this possible?

In the face of this conclusion, Rhodes was baffled. It was the Dragon Spirit of Creation. As a Dragon Spirit of Creation, let alone a small necromancer, even Sally leaves. It ’s hard to say if you can get it in the future. Security? This is unclear. Is it just an excuse to shirk? But from the conclusion of Sonia's internal investigation, this is still the truth? Is the Light Council so unprofessional looking for an excuse?

Seeing Sonia in front of him, a question suddenly appeared in Rhodes's head.

"Sonia, isn't anyone in the House of Light worried that Lilian will defeat the Undead to strengthen her position?"

"Defeat the Undead Army? Your Majesty Lilian?"

Facing Rhode's question, Sonia was a little surprised, she froze for a moment, then frowned.

"This ......... Master, I'm sorry, I have never heard a similar discussion in the House of Light."

"Didn't even a full member of this opinion?"

"No, master."

"What do you think of Her Majesty's strength?"

Rhode stared at Sonia and asked again.

"strength?"

Sonia was even more surprised. She thought for a moment before finally speaking.

"This ......... Master, Her Majesty Lilian is just a child ..."

"Do you think she is better than the Angel of War?"

"This one……………"

Although Sonia did not fully answer Rhode's question, at the moment, Rhode saw the answer he needed from Sonia's confused expression, which surprised him as a Council of Light. The second member, Sonia, who is likely to be qualified for the post, doesn't even know the strength of the Dragon Spirit? !!

At this time, an incredible conclusion emerged from Rhodes' mind.

Does the Council of Light really know nothing about Lilian's strength?

If that's the case, then it might be more interesting than you think ...............

Thinking of this, Rhodes looked back, and then he looked at Sonia in front of him, with a slight smile in his eyes.

"You are doing well, Sonia."

"what……………"

Upon hearing this, Sonia's eyes lightened, and the girl bit her lip and looked at Rhode with anticipation. Soon, she heard her dream answer.

"Tonight, obediently stay in your room, I will give you the reward you expect." (To be continued.)
