Chapter 95: The Fate of Fellowship (III)

Looking at the girl standing in front of her, Lillian couldn't help frowning a little dissatisfied, although she also knew that her plan to go to Moon would definitely be blocked by the Council of Light, and she had also expected that the Council of Light would directly send someone to arrest her. Lillian had already figured out that if the Council of Light really dared to do this, she would go to Rhodes!

If this is the case, then the matter must be a big problem, and from a diplomatic perspective, it can even be said that the head of state is seeking refuge from political persecution from within the country. If this is the case, then the future between Moon and the Nation of Light can be imagined. Luckily, things didn't turn out the way Lillian had hoped, and to her surprise, the Council of Light agreed to her request, but with the proviso that someone would send them along...............

Looking at Sonia in front of her, Lilian's mood was very complicated, it was like a child who had a rebellious mentality for the first time against his strict family, wanted to go on a trip, and shouted that if you don't agree, I will run away from home! As a result, the parents, who had always been serious, even had to take care of what time they went to bed, didn't say a word, nodded and agreed, but just sent someone to follow them......... This made Lillian feel very tangled in her heart.

In fact, Lillian didn't expect the council to agree, so she said so. Just like many rebellious children, they want to rebel against their parents, but they don't dare to take the initiative too much, so they find an excuse that is unacceptable to their parents, such as what their parents don't let them do, they want to do something, if their parents come out to stop them, then they can do what they want to do with confidence. The same goes for Lilian, who would love to stay away from the hellish place of Casablanca and spend time with people she likes, such as Lydia and Rod. But Lillian also knew that this was simply impossible. That's why she deliberately made such a request. According to the previous practice of the Council of Light, they would definitely not agree, and then maybe someone would find someone to take them back. If they really dared to do this, then Lillian would have no psychological pressure to go to Rhodes...............

Outcome............ The Council of Light agreed.

So looking at Sonya, Lilian's face was not looking good at all, and she pursed her mouth. expressed a very obvious dissatisfaction, and I don't know if it was because his "treacherous plan" did not succeed, or because of some other reason. However, as a kind-hearted child, although Lilian was very, very unhappy, she did not intend to take her anger out on Sonya. The Council of Light seems to know something about Lillian, and if she goes to those rigid-faced councilors, maybe Lillian will still find trouble with them. But Sonia has no such concerns, she is only a little older than Lilian, and on the surface she looks like a big sister. And Sonia herself looks like a beautiful and gentle person. So even if Lily is angry, she can't let it out———— after all, she is not the kind of bear child who cries and shouts and makes trouble no matter who is in front of her.

When Lillian looked at Sonia angrily, Sonia was also quietly observing Lilian. As a citizen of the Land of Light and a secondary member of the Council of Light, she naturally admired the name of the Dragon Soul of Light for a long time, but although she had seen it in the Dragon Soul Sacred Book before, she only met in a hurry, and Lilian looked serious at that time. The face is expressionless and very low-key. Nor did it make a big impact. But now it's different, after officially meeting each other face to face, Sonia finds that Lilian is unexpectedly easy to get along with, and in her eyes, the girl sitting on the throne doesn't look like a dragon soul inheritor, the king of a country. It's more like a cute little sister next door. It's not majestic, but it's very affinity. And Sonia noticed that Lillian didn't seem to like to hide her thoughts very much, and now that she was looking at her, she could tell from that cute little face that she was very entangled, obviously. Her Majesty didn't like to be by her side, but she wasn't too embarrassed to be angry with herself.........

Thinking of this, Sonia suddenly felt very interesting, although she did get orders from Rhodes to be Lillian's companion. But before that, she didn't know what kind of person Lillian was, but out of loyalty to Rod, Sonia didn't care. Even if Lillian is a freewheeling villain, or a merry bastard who wants to attack a woman when she sees it, as long as it is Rhodes' orders, Sonia will obey them without complaint. But now, seeing Lilian's expression, Sonia suddenly found that she had a little more motivation, after all, even if it is a task, if you can complete it happily, it is better than forcing yourself and sacrificing yourself to get bruises, isn't it?

Lillian didn't hide her displeasure with Sonia too much, but it made Sonia feel relaxed. Although Sonia is not very old, she has been in the political arena for so many years, and she can be the third executive and second member of the Locktos consortium, and many people have naturally seen her. Many people are duplicitous and duplicitous, and most of the superiors are expressionless and use a serious attitude to hide their inner thoughts......... Of course, Rhodes is an exception, he is not expressionless in order to hide his thoughts, it is purely that the second stage of the illness is too long to change back.........

And now, a simple superior like Lillian can almost be regarded as a rare animal, and the girl has a pitiful quality, so when Sonia saw Lilian's dissatisfied and aggrieved look, instead of being angry and worried, she became more and more determined.

"Hello, Your Majesty the Dragon Soul of Light, I'm the Second Councillor, Sonya. Locktos. I will accompany you to Moon on behalf of the Council, and during this time I will arrange and take care of your living and travel, and if you need anything, please feel free to let me know. As long as I can do it, I will do my best to do it. ”

"Humph..................!"

Hearing Sonya's words, Lilian instinctively "snorted" at first, but the girl soon realized that this did not seem to be good, so she hurriedly changed her position and nodded vigorously, as if she was apologizing for her impolite cold snort just now.

"It's good. I know......... Well, I'm sorry for you..............."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Taking Lilian's expression into her eyes, Sonia hurriedly bent down, but at this moment a smile flashed on the girl's face. Although they had only just met, Sonia already knew it. How do you complete the task that Rhodes has given you?

By the time Lillian and Sonia meet, Rhodes has left the Winter Fortress and returned to the Land of Atonement. He had also heard about Lillian's visit to Moon, and had learned about the Council of Light's latest plan from Sonya, but Rhodes was only concerned and didn't do anything. After all, his current status is just an earl, a local lord. And the negotiation between Lilian and Lydia is an exchange between the two high-level countries, and there is no qualification for Rhodes to intervene. Although now everyone knows that Rods has a bright future and is very popular with Lydia. But his identity is only a local lord after all. It is as if the head of a province is particularly interested in the talks between the heads of state of the two countries on military bases and the nuclear threat——— and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is responsible for organizing the talks. You don't care about getting rid of poverty and getting rich, what kind of fun are you doing here?

Rhodes doesn't know that in the Golden City, there are many people who are still waiting and cautious about their appearance, if they are very enthusiastic in this regard, it is inevitable that they will not feel threatened——— Principality of Moon is not the only one, military internal affairs and diplomacy He still wants to mix everything, this is to let everyone else drink the northwest wind? Marlene had already admonished Rhodes several times to concentrate on the Land of Atonement and Glen Bell Collar. Try not to get into trouble that goes beyond your own identity. As the saying goes, the tree is the heir of the Shania family. Marlene naturally has her own intelligence network, and she knows very well that it is already a little dangerous for Rhodes to be in the limelight all this time. Although everything he did was beneficial to Moon, if humanity could really be monolithic because of this, there would have been no struggle between the royal party and the reformers before. Lydia has a transcendent status as the archangel, so she naturally doesn't care about the subtleties. But the other aristocrats didn't accept Rhodes' ——— so easily, especially when he was likely to steal his cake.

And Marlene's words do make sense, the current place of atonement. There was also a whole bunch of issues that needed to be dealt with by Rhodes back to deal with. This is not military, but internal. But the roots......... In fact, it lies in the construction system of Rhodes.

After Rhodes became a lord, the Land of Atonement never developed, and with the exception of the Land of Atonement Fortress itself, the rest of the place was a deserted wilderness. There are many reasons for this, being located at the border, and the inconvenience of transportation is one thing. On the other hand——— Ruder Finn's construction system is so convenient.

Ordinary lords want to build a fortress, of course, it is not as convenient as Rhodes, they need to bring a lot of craftsmen, and even need talents from all walks of life to repair or build castles and walls for themselves. It costs a lot of money, of course, but on the other hand, it's a cycle——— unless someone cheats like Rhodes, building a project of this magnitude is a protracted job, and those workers can't drive to and from work by bus like in modern society. They usually drag their families to the location and then build there. And in this way, a cluster area is naturally formed. And with various needs, this gathering area will gradually expand, such as broken tools need to be repaired, buildings need to be logged, food needs food and meat, and food needs to be processed............ Even the workers need to eat, rest, and even have various needs after they have been paid. Then there will be shops, lumberyards, blacksmiths and the like. And this is how a gathering place slowly grows from nothing, from small to large, from simple to rich. Then, when the project is completed, a territory with a complete circulation system emerges.

Rhodes didn't know much about this before, but now he finally understands what it means to "hurry up or not reach".

Although the construction system can build a majestic fortress in the blink of an eye, it can't build the various circulation systems inside, the prosperity of a territory depends largely on the people themselves, the people have money, the circulation of commerce and trade will prosper, demand will promote production, and production will in turn attract more people to come here, but all this, Rhodes's territory does not have. The entire Glen Bell collar looks like it is empty on the surface, it looks powerful, but the inside is completely empty, although the hardware is complete. But the software is far from it.

Rhodes had already tasted such evil results before. In the face of the attack of the undead army, in order to boost the morale of his soldiers, Rhodes once tried to cheer them up with food. As a result, there is a huge territory, and there are not even enough chefs to find it, and it has to be transferred from Deep Rock and Parfield!

This shows how deformed the place of atonement under Rhodes is. But there is nothing Rhodes can do about it, if it is built as usual. I'm afraid that my territory has long been flattened by the undead army. Compared to the development of deformity, it is better than being completely finished.

Optimistically, now the hardware is complete, the software is complete......... Just take your time.

With this in mind, Rhodes returned to the Land of Atonement.

"Rhodes ..............."

The float had just stopped, and as soon as Rhodes stepped onto the platform, he saw a familiar, delicate figure trotting towards him. And seeing that petite figure, a gentle smile also appeared on Rod's originally expressionless face. Then he reached out and soon hugged Christie, who had run to his side.

“………… You're finally ......... It's back..............."

Because of the trotting all the way, beads of sweat have appeared on Christie's forehead, which shows how weak the girl's body is. And Rod gently reached out, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat beads on Christie's forehead, gently stroked Christie's hair, and smiled at her. Then he raised his head and looked at Marlene and Lijie in front of him. And canaries. Generally, when Rhodes comes back from going out, he is greeted by these people. Labis is too busy. She couldn't find the time, and she didn't really understand that. The little bubblegum depends on the mood, and if you are free, it will naturally come, if you are busy, it doesn't matter——— anyway, with her friendship with Rod, Rods doesn't care about this.

"How's your body? Christie? ”

"Very good...............

Hearing Rod's inquiry, Christie smiled and nodded vigorously. And hearing Christie's answer, Rod breathed a sigh of relief. Although it is said that the jewelry that Lydia gave Christie can save Christie from the torture of illness, it is impossible to prevent injury. In particular, Christie herself is weak, slender and thin, and can easily get injured. This has always been Rhodes' concern. But now it seems to be okay.........

"You're back, Rod."

"Mr. Rod, Annie, Miss Seven Love............ Long time no see. ”

"You're finally back, how's it going on at the front?"

At this moment, Marlene, Lijie and Canary also stepped forward and said hello to Rod and the others.

"Luckily, everything went as we wanted, no problems."

Before returning, Rhodes had already communicated with Marlene through magical contact, and of course they had already learned everything that had happened at Winter Castle. But...............

"By the way, Marlene, I heard you say that there seems to be a little problem in the territory?"

Rod stroked Christie's hair and asked curiously as he looked at Marlene. In a previous magical communication, Marlene had told Rhodes that something was going on in the Lord's territory and that it would be resolved when he returned. Marlene didn't say what it was, but only said that this matter could only be discussed clearly in person.

"Yes, Rod."

Speaking of this, a little helplessness appeared on Marlene's face.

"This matter has something to do with that Miss Dark Elf..............."

"Leo?"

Hearing Marlene's words, Rod was stunned. He didn't expect that something happened in the so-called territory that would actually be the ghost of the dark elf, her actions had obviously been bound by an oath, in this case, what could she do here?

"What's wrong with her?"

"That's ..............."

Marlene spread her hands helplessly.

"A few days ago, Miss Corinna came to the stronghold on behalf of the Church to communicate with us about the previous attack by the Undead Legion, and then ............... at that time," said Marlene, who sighed slightly, a complicated expression appeared on her face, obviously even she didn't know what to say.

"She was attacked by Leo."

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Rod was stunned. When he heard Marlene speak just now, he was thinking about what trouble Leo had caused in the territory, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen......... Corinna has been staying in the church for a long time, and as a representative sent by the country of law, she doesn't show up much on weekdays except to care about the affairs of the church. Previously, when the Undead Legion was attacking the city, the representative of the Law Country did not appear. But Rhodes is not surprised, after all, Corinna's identity is a foreign envoy, if she is involved in the battle between the Night Kingdom and the Continent of Light, it is not good that the Kingdom of Law will also be implicated, and at that time it will be the second super-no, it is the prelude to the second creation war.

Rod doesn't care if Corinna works here or not, anyway, what he wants is that as long as Corinna is here and has a channel to communicate with the country of France, then it will be enough. But I didn't expect it...............

"The result?"

Rod glanced at everyone, neither Marlene, Lijie nor Canary had that kind of troubled and nervous look, and it didn't seem that the result should be too bad.

"It's good that Miss Canary was there, so it's fine, but ......... Miss Corinna has told Rhodes about the Dark Elves under you, and she wants you to explain it to her face-to-face. ”

"Did she know? How did she see it? ”

Hearing this, Rod was stunned, Leo didn't look like a dark elf at all on the surface, in fact, if she hadn't said it before, Rod wouldn't believe it, but wait...............

Sure enough, Marlene proved Rod's guess very quickly.

"Miss Leo told her herself."

Hearing Marlene's answer, the expression on Rod's face suddenly became exciting. (To be continued......)
