There is no banquet in the world, the lively Midsummer Festival finally came to an end after so many days of noise, and after the closing ceremony, the mercenary guilds also went home, as Rod said, they had put all their energy on the Midsummer Festival before, and now it was time to gather their hearts and focus on their guild tasks - Purple Lily and Cole's Eagle were a little better, and Battle only lost two games, and there was basically no loss. Victor even won the team battle, which naturally got a lot of rewards, and these are very helpful for them to replenish their strength.

On the other hand, the Heavenly Sword and the Wings of Self have become the most tragic supporting roles, the Wings of Self are completely complete this time, their veteran and spiritual pillar Lawson was killed, and the four high-level mercenary guild leaders, including Waltz, were also killed, not only that, according to the faint rumors, due to the matter of this Waltz, the Wings of Self will be completely canceled by the association, that is to say, from now on, the guild of Wings of Self will completely cease to exist.

This blow is not small for the people of the southern harbor, but they have no way, maybe in the problem of Rhodes, these southerners are not very convinced, once the matter involves the devil, these people have nothing to say——— in any case, Moon is an angelic country, and the punishment for the devil and its involvement is very severe, so no matter how depressed those southern people are, they can only knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.

Although the association also made a statement that after disbanding the Wing of Freedom, they would immediately promote a new mercenary group to fill the vacancy, many people in the south were not optimistic about this decision. The Wing of Self is too powerful in the south, like a giant, and the other mercenary groups are all curled up at his feet like ants. Now, the giants are down, but the ants, no matter how big they are, are just ants. Will they be able to take the place of the giants?

Many people felt that this was unreliable, especially the death of Lawson, who was the spiritual leader of the Southern Freedom faction. It's also a flag. If he were still here, then these people would not be so worried. But now, with Lawson dead, the flag down, and everyone feeling a kind of apocalyptic despair and gloom, without Lawson, the southern harbor without the wings of freedom. What does the future look like?

The fate of the Heavenly Sword is better than that of the Wings of Freedom, and it is not much better, and the fiasco at the Midsummer Festival is also a big blow to them, and it is even rumored that the president of the Heavenly Sword, Mobis, is very likely to leave the guild in this situation, because many nobles are very dissatisfied with the conservative and cowardly style of the Heavenly Sword in the Midsummer Festival competition this time, and they are eager to find a scapegoat——— and Mobis is likely to be the unfortunate lamb who is put on the altar.

But all this has nothing to do with Rod, at this time he brought his subordinates. Back in Deep Rock.

The returning crowd was greeted with unprecedented enthusiasm, and when they stepped into Deep Rock City, almost all of the mercenary groups in Pafield came out to greet them. And the city lord of Krauser also appeared among them, giving Rod and others the highest level of preferential treatment.

It's no wonder, after all, at the beginning, no one believed that Rhodes would achieve it, even if it was the old president, Serek and others, at that time, at most, they hoped that the performance of Rhodes and others would not disgrace Parfield, or if it was better, they would be recognized by the general association of mercenaries and officially promoted to the guild. It would be nice to put an end to Parfield's embarrassing history.

They didn't have Rod not only completed the task, but even exceeded the task——— this joy came so suddenly that when they first got the news, many people even wondered if there was something wrong with their ears. At first they even thought that those who conveyed the news were just mocking themselves and laughing at Parfield. As the Midsummer Festival ends, more and more people return to Parfield. Among them, there are also some members of the small mercenary group who went to the Midsummer Festival to see the excitement, and the news they brought was completely consistent with the outside world so that these people finally let go of their worries and concerns, and when they finally admitted that this was a fact and not a joke or mockery, the great joy was like a wave, completely swallowing them up, and many people didn't even know what kind of expression they should make in the face of such news. …,

Unlike before, no one now says that Rod's mercenary group is not qualified to become a guild, which is also related to Rod's brilliant achievements now, if Rhodes is only good and is promoted to the guild, then it is inevitable that people will not be criticized behind their backs. Now they have defeated three strong opponents in a row and finally won the individual competition of the Midsummer Festival, which is not enough to qualify, then those people themselves can't say it. Was it just luck to be able to defeat the Mercenary Guild? This statement will not be valid, because everyone can see very clearly how powerful the three enemies defeated by Rod this time are, especially the "Freedom Wings" and Lawson——— which are monsters that have accumulated a lot of power in the south, and Rod said that he would kill them, and even the entire "Freedom Wings" were put into it, and the things that the people's guild had not done for many years of desperate life, Rod only took a few days to solve. Is such a team or an ordinary mercenary group? Isn't that a slap in the face of all mercenaries? For the sake of everyone's face, it must be a mercenary guild, definitely a mercenary guild, and the strongest mercenary guild!

Walker Sr. was worried about what these people would think of Rod's performance in the last game, but it turned out that Rod's ass theory was still very useful. In the crowd that greeted them, no one expressed disagreement or dissatisfaction with Rod's way of fighting, on the contrary, there were many people who laughed at those arrogant southerners who couldn't afford to lose, and even with the wings of "freedom" became the object of their ridicule——— Tiger fell on the plain and was bullied by dogs, anyway, this guild, the so-called wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and now they don't have to worry about someone retaliating on the corpse of this once behemoth in front of them. If it is known to those who are free from the wings, I am afraid that they will vomit blood and die of anger.

After returning to the stronghold, Rhodes immediately announced a two-day holiday, which was considered a celebration. And those mercenaries also left the stronghold like a pack of hungry wolves, many of them followed the team to the Golden City, and now they were looking for a place to brag about what they had seen, and Rod's order was naturally very much in line with their hearts.

Although the subordinates all went to the tavern to drink and chat. Rhodes was not able to calm down, he returned to his stronghold and didn't even sit down on his ass, and immediately ushered in a few big shots.

"Hahaha, little one. Well done, good! ”

Before he could enter the door, Rhodes heard the loud voice of the old president coming from outside the door panel, and then the door of his study was pushed open like this, and then, the figures of the old president and Serek appeared in the doorway. The old man strode into the study and came to Rod's face. She patted him the shoulder.

"Frankly, little one, I really didn't, you actually did it! The Holy Soul is above! How the hell did you kid do that? ”

"I think the rumors tell you the whole story in enough detail, Lord."

Rod raised his eyebrows and replied helplessly.

"I know the way, I know the way, I just know the way, I'm really cool. Hey hey........."

This old man, who had always looked like a grumpy dwarf, was really very excited today, and he folded his hands and came to Rhodes with a red face. Then the old man quickly lowered his head and asked in a low voice.

"By the way, I heard that Nawson bastard hung up? Or is it hanging in the hands of Annie's little girl? ”

"That's right."

"Hey!"

Hearing Rod's answer, the elder clapped his hands heavily, and then he immediately jumped up like a child.

"Lawson, you fool, idiot, you have such a day without you old bastard, hahaha, you actually died at the hands of a little girl, it's good now. In the next ten years, I've seen a group of slutty Southerners with a lot of fun to talk about! Hahaha, that old slut ............! Looking at the old president who seemed to be going crazy, Rod glanced at him with some confusion, and then looked at Serek, who was standing beside him, with a wry smile as always, and faced Rod's gaze. Serek shook his head slightly. Nothing was said.

After the elder's epilepsy lasted for nearly ten minutes, he finally returned to normal, but it could be seen that the old man was very excited, and even after the worst episode, he had to support the table with both hands and gasp for breath, which regained his calm.

"Whew............ Call............ It's so cool, it's so cool, it's a pity I didn't see it with my own eyes, oops......... That's ................"

Speaking of this, the old man still smashed his mouth, looking unfinished. Seeing the old president's expression, Serek, who had been watching from the side, walked up to the old president's side and patted him on the shoulder.

"All right, old man, you see you're scaring our boys. Calm down, don't forget that we're here for business. ”

"Oh, yes, yes."

Hearing Serek's words, the old man patted his head, and then he restrained the expression on his face and looked at Rod seriously.

"Hmm......... Hmph, little one, all right, that ......... just now You just don't see it. Let's get down to business, now that you have become the guild leader of the Parfield Plains, I think you should also know a little bit about the system of the mercenary guild, of course, you can try to ask our association for help if there is anything, as long as you don't make big trouble, our mercenary association will definitely stand with you kid! ”

"Thank you."

Hearing the old man's words, Rod nodded slightly to express his gratitude. Although the old man's words didn't sound very reliable, Rhodes knew that once he had the support of the Mercenary Association, then the guild would be truly like a fish in water. Originally, he was worried that the Mercenary Guild would want to take advantage of the opportunity to contain his guild, but now it seems that the Pafield region may have been weak for a long time, at least in this regard, they are still worth reassuring.

However, Rhodes also knew very well that if it was just a promise, then he would not let the old president and Serek appear at the same time.

"Well, that's the end of the, and the next thing is the reward......... Of course it's not ours, I don't think you kid can look down on this bit of thing about our association now............"

Saying this, the old man smiled, and his old face was full of envy and jealousy. And what he said is also true, after the Midsummer Festival ended, Rhodes and they received a bounty of 20 million gold coins, which is unprecedented even in the Midsummer Festival, after all, the previous Midsummer Festivals were held by the Mercenary Association, where did they get so much money, it would be good to have one or two million meanings. This time, the organizer of the Midsummer Festival was Grand Duke Lì Tia——— His Highness was the least short of money.

Of course, Rhodes didn't have the ability to move 20 million gold coins, so in the end, he also converted these gold coins into platinum coins and equivalent gems according to the common method of the Dragon Soul Continent, and Grand Duke Lìtia also gave a half-dimensional space pocket as large as the bank's underground vault for free, so he collected these bounties. Otherwise, with so much money alone, I'm afraid that Rhodes will have to move for half a year to be able to move it all.

Of course, the old president didn't dwell too much on this, he just expressed a little envy, jealousy and hatred, then reached into his arms, and then solemnly took out a scroll and put it on the table.

"Your request has been approved, boy, this is the magical contract of the Mercenary Guild and our Parfield Chapter, as well as the Krauser City Lord, and from now on, you can build your own fortress in the Land of Atonement........."

Speaking of this, the elder hesitated for a moment, but he quickly asked.

"But boy, it's not for me to say, where are you not good, why do you have to choose the place of atonement?" (To be continued.)
