By the time the sun rose over the horizon again, the battle was already over.

Judging from the results, this is a rare victory in the Land of Light, and the record of completely annihilating the entire undead army has only been this one time since the invasion of the Night Country. It seems to be very powerful, and it stands to reason that at this time, the Council of Light should be touting its achievements to inspire people. But this was not the case, and just after the battle ended, the angry military headquarters directly handed a complaint to the Council of Light, accusing Rhodes of ordering the soldiers to launch a brutal attack on them in the rear!

In fact, it is no wonder that the military department of the Kingdom of Light is so angry, although Andre can see Rod's plan, but there are some idiots who don't see what Rod wants to do at all, they just feel that they must not be able to stop it, so they simply want to take the opportunity to retreat and escape, but they didn't expect that they had just withdrawn the city wall, and they were intercepted by the warlords of the southern front, asking them to return to the battlefield to fight. And the first-line army that finally escaped was naturally impossible to be obedient, so soon, they encountered the attack of the other party, and the soldiers who were already sleepy under the attack of the undead army were naturally not the opponents of the warlords, and they were completely annihilated in just a moment. And after seeing this scene, the other soldiers who had planned to take the opportunity to retreat from the front line together also suddenly beat drums in their hearts and gave up that unrealistic idea.

But it is impossible to say that they have no grudge against each other in their hearts, especially after the battle, the military department of the Council of Light immediately questioned it aggressively, and the answer was naturally ............ Rhodes's order. This naturally made the military department furious, and they found Rhodes, but the answer they got almost didn't blow them up.

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

Rhodes reclined in his chair. leisurely looked at the military representative in front of him, whose face was pale, his fists were clenched, and his whole body trembled. said lightly, I don't know if Lu Dao was intentional or unintentional, he bit the word "reinforcement" very hard.

"Although we are on different camps, we all have the same goal. That is to protect Winter Castle from the invasion of the undead legions, and protect the people in the rear from the threat of death. To achieve this goal, we should abandon our prejudices and work together. And the crumbling northern line of defense under the attack of the undead army also worries me very much, so just in case, I have to take some drastic measures to ensure that our gains are not lost to the stupidity of some people............... The facts have also proved my judgment correct. ”

Hearing Rod's answer, the military representative's face turned pale with anger, but he couldn't say half a sentence. Because that's exactly what happened. At that time, many people saw the remnants of the defeated army retreating, and they more or less thought of taking the opportunity to evacuate, but after seeing the final fate of those unlucky people, they had to restrain their inner thoughts and continue to fight. If no one was watching behind at that time, I'm afraid they would have taken the opportunity to slip away. At that time, it was still the military headquarters that had no light on the face, and now at least they were victorious, and the loss was not the army directly under the Council of Light. No matter how good Rhodes's approach is, it can be regarded as saving the face of the military department.

But the problem is that Rhodes is too naked, looking like "Lao Tzu is kind enough to give you face, don't hurry up and kneel down and be sung thank you". The military department couldn't save face, of course they knew that Dao Luo didn't need their protest at all, but the problem was that they couldn't just endure this tone, so they sued the Council of Light directly. After receiving this news, the Council of Light was also overjoyed, and they immediately approached the church and claimed that Rhodes had violated the agreement, because the original agreement stipulated that the military department would not order Rhodes. Rhodes also did not interfere with the orders of the military department. And now Rudes's approach is obviously in violation of the agreement, so the agreement is invalid and invalid!

In the face of the Council of Light's statement, Rhodes calmly said that he did not interfere with the orders of the Council of Light's military headquarters at all, because he did not give any orders to the northern defense line and the military headquarters at all. As for why he wanted to send the Overseer to the rear of the northern defense line, Rhodes' answer was also very calm.

"I want to make sure that there are no losses in the southern defense."

He didn't see the soldiers of the northern line of defense as if they were all with him. Therefore, there is naturally no such thing as interference or non-interference. In the end, the church did not adopt the statement of the Council of Light, but declared the agreement valid, because Rhodes did not directly give any suggestions and orders to the military department of the Council of Light, he did not even send people to communicate, and the agreement did not stipulate what Rhodes should do if he attacked the army under the Council of Light, so this is not within the scope of the church's concern. And the Council of Light itself didn't write what would happen to them if Rhodes attacked at that time, because they had planned to take this opportunity to hack Rhodes, and if they did, they might have made a hole for themselves. As a result, I didn't expect that it was not written in it now, and they were still pitted. This left the Council of Light helpless, let alone speechless.

But as a pioneer of the Council of Light, Rhodes has always been anxious, and not long after the Council of Light raised his objections, Rhodes asked the Council of Light through the church for the pension mentioned in the previous agreement!!

In the previous battle, Rhodes generously sacrificed all his 4,500 Flowing Fire Guards on the battlefield, but this sacrifice was not in vain, with the help of the self-detonation ability of the fire elemental creatures, the sacrifice of these 4,500 Flowing Fire Guards in exchange for the collapse of the opponent's 30,000 army was also an extremely cost-effective deal. Only five hundred sea elves survived, and originally Rhodes brought Agarvi and other sea elves to gain experience, so naturally he would not be stupid enough to let them die. But those fire elemental creatures............ That's another story.

In the face of Rod's request, the Council of Light was a hundred unhappy, because according to the agreement, Rhodes demanded a pension of three thousand gold coins for each war dead!

That's 3,000 gold coins!

On the Continent of Light, the pension for ordinary soldiers killed in battle is only a few hundred gold coins, but Rhodes is a lion with his mouth wide open, and he asks for three thousand as soon as he opens his mouth! This is also the main reason why the agreement between the Council of Light and Rhodes has not been negotiated before. The Council of Light thinks that your soldiers, even if they are made of gold, are not worth three thousand gold coins, and that it is almost the same without a zero. Of course, Rhodes was unwilling to let go, he even claimed that his precious soldiers were priceless, and three thousand gold coins was considered low, otherwise he originally planned to start at five thousand, and there would be no upper limit.

And now. According to the previous agreement, the Council of Light was to pay the pensions of the 4,500 "war dead" that Rhodes "sacrificed", 3,000 gold coins each, for a total of 4,500 people............ This means that the Council of Light will pay Rhodes nearly 13.5 million gold in bereavement compensation!!

This is naturally unwilling for the Council of Light, if Rhodes really killed 4,500 elite soldiers, then they can still balance a little bit in their hearts, after all, elite things are difficult to find with lanterns, and the cost of training and equipment from them is not a small number, if they really want to be able to dig such a piece of meat from Rhodes, they can still accept it. But 4,500 fire elemental creatures............ What's going on?

It's useless to protest. If you want to protest, they have already protested, and when Rhodes first came, the Council of Light wanted to abolish the agreement on this ground, but the church did not agree, because the agreement did not stipulate that the race of reinforcements must be human, so they couldn't care what Rhodes liked to bring. And now, what does the Council of Light want to say? They could, of course, tell nonsense with their eyes open, indicating that Rhodes' reinforcements did not play the slightest role on the battlefield. thereby diminishing their importance. But is it possible? If there is only one army in the Land of Light, the problem is the Coalition Army. None of you are fools. Both the Council of Light and the Reflective Council knew very well that if it weren't for the soldiers under Rhodes and the statue of the Holy Maiden he brought, it would have been a dream to annihilate the enemy. What kind of Rhodes's army has no presence in this battle, they can only deceive themselves.

In the end, in desperation, the Council of Light still paid for the matter, and they originally expected Rhodes to send someone, and then sneered to vent some of the anger in their hearts. The money was not in vain. But they waited and waited and waited, and it turned out that it was not Rhodes or his subordinates who came, but representatives of the church——— who came to confirm and transfer the pension according to Rhodes' request.

From beginning to end, Rhodes didn't give the Council of Light the slightest chance to vent.

However, Rhodes didn't care about the situation on the Council of Light's side. Although the commercial trade of the Dragon Soul Continent is not as developed as that of the earth, it is not particularly backward, and he asked the church to be responsible for helping, on the one hand, he did not want to give the Council of Light a chance to vent his anger and suffocate them, and on the other hand, with the help of the church's financial network, so that without his own appearance, the more than 13 million gold coins were directly transferred to the fortress of the Land of Atonement. Of course, this does not mean that the church has to carry 13 million gold coins around. The Dragon Soul Continent has its own mature financial system. On weekdays, gold, silver and copper coins are used for trading and trading. However, when making a large transfer, platinum coins and equivalent diamonds are used for exchange, and further up you need to use special currencies unique to the major powers, such as the Heaven Coin of the Continent of Light is cast from platinum and crystals with magical power, one Heaven Coin is equal to 10,000 gold coins, so the church only needs to put 1,350 Heaven Coin in a box and send it to the Land of Atonement, and if Rhodes needs to use it, it can be directly exchanged for platinum coins or even gold coins to use, of course, If he just uses the construction system, I'm afraid he won't even need to exchange it............

It's just that the pricing of each currency unique to the power is different, like the Heaven Coin and the Revenant Coin of the Continent of Light and the Continent of Night are all very valuable coins, the former is minted with platinum and magic crystals, and the latter is made of soul prisms, which are all common currencies in the entire Dragon Soul Continent, but on the other hand, things like blood coins are meaningless except for a few copper coins in hell. However, it was such a variety of different types of currencies that the church was able to unify completely, forming a complete financial circulation system in the entire Dragon Soul Continent - to some extent, the country of the law had already ruled the world.

However, this was not Rhodes's concern, after defeating the Undead Legion, he did not evacuate immediately, firstly, because with the fall of the Undead Legion, Lilian's trip to the front finally started again, and before that. Naturally, Rod wanted to meet Lilian. On the other hand, he also needs to wait for Sonya's report.

Shortly after the war ended, Sonia came again as a representative of the Council of Light, of course, ostensibly on behalf of the military to protest to Rhodes, but in fact Sonia had come to report to Rhodes the inside information that Rhodes had asked her to investigate about Lillian's failure to show up at the front in time. As for protesting or something............ Sonia didn't take it to heart at all, as a matter of course.

But. Sonya's findings surprised Rhodes.

"Are you sure?"

Rod sat in his chair, frowned, and looked at Sonia in a slightly surprised manner. In the face of Rod's inquiry, Sonia nodded and answered very affirmatively.

"Yes, master, I'm sure. The reason why Her Majesty Lilian did not come to the front line was indeed only because of security concerns. The Council of Light considers it dangerous for Her Majesty Lilian to travel to Winter Castle while fighting is about to break out, as it has delayed Lilian's trip to the front. Lillian accepted the advice of the Council of Light and returned to the front after the battle at Castle in Winter was over.

This is no different from the rumors that Rod had heard before, but because of this, Rod felt incredible. Because for this reason, it is really ............ Too, too, too ............ How so? He didn't even know what to say. At first, Rhodes thought that the Council of Light was a clumsy excuse, but now he felt that the truth was really clumsy. However, he was sure that Sonia was indeed loyal to him——— otherwise she would never have come up with such an idiotic investigation.

But......... How is this possible?

Faced with this conclusion, Rhodes was puzzled. That's the Creation Dragon Soul, Lillian as the Creation Dragon Soul. Not to mention a little necromancer, it's hard to say whether even Shaliye can please him in person, safety issues? I don't know if it's just an excuse to shirk it. But now, judging from the conclusion of Sonya's internal investigation, is this still the truth? Could it be that the Council of Light is so unprofessional even looking for an excuse?

Seeing Sonia in front of him, a question suddenly appeared in Rod's mind.

"Sonia, isn't there anyone within the Council of Light who is worried that Lillian will defeat the Undead Legion to strengthen her position?"

"Defeat the Undead Legion? Your Majesty? ”

Faced with this question of Rhodes. Sonia was a little surprised, she was stunned for a moment, and then frowned.

"This............ I'm sorry, master, but I've never heard anything like this in the Council of Light. ”

"Didn't even the full-fledged members of parliament think that way?"

"Nope. Master. ”

"What do you think of Liliane's strength?"

Rhodes stared at Sonia and asked again.

"Strength?"

Sonia was even more surprised, and she thought for a moment before finally speaking.

"This............ Master, Lillian's Majesty is still just a child..............."

"Do you think her strength is stronger than that of the Battle Angels?"

"This ..............."

Although Sonia didn't fully answer Rod's question, but at this moment, Rhodes saw the answer he needed from Sonya's confused expression, which surprised him——— as a second member of the Council of Light, Sonya, who may be qualified for the main position, actually didn't know anything about the strength of the creation dragon soul?!

And at this time, an incredible conclusion came to Rhodes's mind.

Could it be that the Council of Light really doesn't know anything about Lillian's own strength?

If that's the case, then it's probably even more interesting than you think...............

Thinking of this, Rod came back to his senses, and then he looked at Sonia in front of him, and a slight smile flashed in his eyes.

"You're doing well, Sonia."

"Ah...............h

Hearing this, Sonya's eyes lit up, and the girl bit her lip lightly and looked at Rod with expectant eyes. Soon, she heard the answer she had always dreamed of.

"Stay in your room tonight, and I'll give you the reward you're looking forward to." (To be continued......)
