Although it was verbally said that this was a misunderstanding, everyone knew that it was definitely not a misunderstanding. The Council of Light, which had been hoping to make trouble with Rhodes, finally seized the handle this time, and went to question Rhodes why he wanted to attack his subordinates, and also cited a lot of rhetoric to warn Rhodes that doing so would affect the stability and unity of the entire Winter Castle front, and almost said that Rhodes was a sinner for all mankind.

But to the anger of the Council of Light, Rhodes did not defend himself in the slightest in the face of their questioning, on the contrary, his answer was very simple——— as a nobleman, a lord, an earl granted an official title by the royal family, he had the right to punish those who did not respect him and tried to threaten him. Gülen ignored his identity, provoked him three times and twice, and even planned to do it, as a nobleman, as an earl, he had the right to punish such "inferior people" who dared to insult and even provoke his dignity. Because this is the power of a nobleman, no one can stop him from exercising his power.

This was rightly said, and the Council of Light was dumbfounded, but there was no way to refute it. Because this is indeed the case in terms of status, and many of the people present can prove that Gülen was the first to speak disrespectfully to Rhodes, a hillbilly or something. Don't look at Rod's young age, but this time he is visiting on behalf of Moon, and his identity is a foreign envoy, plus he is also a lord and an earl, and his status is certainly much higher than that of Glenn, who is just the commander of the legion. But now Rhodes's obvious use of identity to oppress people is very despicable, but it is very effective, because if you really want to say this, it is completely in the past! Of course, you can also say that as an aristocrat, you should talk about the construction of spiritual civilization. Don't be so rude and savage, you can protest to the Council of Light afterwards............ But apparently, Rod didn't like to play this set.

There was no trouble for Rhodes in this matter, but the Council of Light didn't stop there, because it was originally by the way, and they came here in a rage. In fact, it is for another more important issue——— that is, Rod's five thousand reinforcements!

This was originally agreed upon in the contract, and at that time, the Council of Light thought that Rhodes's statement of five thousand soldiers at that time was completely in passing, because anyone who knew a little about the Land of Atonement knew that the surface of the lord of Rhodes was actually very bitter. The vast territory under his jurisdiction was basically a deserted no-man's land, except for the fortress of the Land of Atonement, and naturally there was no source of taxes and soldiers. Although Rhodes started out with the Mercenary Guild, and now the Starlight Guild is quite famous in the entire Parfield area, mercenaries are not a fixed source of territory after all. Any province needs a steady stream of soldiers and financial support, but none of these Rhodes have. So the Council of Light only thought that Rhodes was so casual at first, so they hurriedly seized the loophole. He insisted that Rhodes should provide 5,000 soldiers, and if he could recruit less than 5,000 soldiers, the treaty would be completely nullified.

But now, Rhodes has brought five thousand soldiers, but the problem is that none of ——— five thousand men are human!

The Council of Light originally promoted the slogan "All of humanity unites to fight against the undead", and most of the lords of the power and territory also knew that the Council of Light had human supremacy, but they didn't care. After all, these lords are human beings themselves, and there may be other races in their territory. But it's also a minority, and it's generally difficult to join the army, and even if you join the army, it's a special unit, like an elf, it's impossible to say that you can organize an infantry team of 1,000 people or something. Most of the soldiers are still human, so it's okay to heed the call of the Council of Light.

But Rhodes brought 5,000 non-humans with a big stab, which is a slap in the face of the Council of Light!

Smack. Bang bang, bang bang.

Look at it, it's all swollen.

The Council of Light initially started with the idea that the 5,000 soldiers were not human, which was a violation of their agreement, and they filed a complaint directly with the Church. But the church eventually said. At that time, when the two sides signed the agreement, there were no requirements for the race of the soldiers, so as long as Rhodes brought 5,000 soldiers, no matter what race they were, as long as they were not demons, then he couldn't control it, and this was not a violation of the agreement.

The Council of Light was not discouraged, and they naturally did not believe Rod's words, so they went to the mages of the Tour of France, and even invited the Holy Knights of the Church to identify what these soldiers brought by Rod.

As spellcasters and knights who have fought demons and demons, of course, both sides know what devils are and what elemental creatures are, and in the end, the answer that the Council of Light gets from them is the same as Rhodes said, that these are fire elemental creatures, not demons or demons.

This made the Council of Light want to cry without tears, they originally planned to take the opportunity to black Rhodes, but now they stole chickens again, and at this time they also understood that Rhodes had bitten to the death and asked the Council of Light to compensate their soldiers for their soldiers' pensions, which made them seem inexplicable. At that time, they were still secretly happy in their hearts that if Rhodes could really finish tossing his five thousand soldiers here, then his strength would definitely be greatly reduced, and he would be willing to pay even if he paid for it at that time. But now............... They must be less willing.

Now the only psychological comfort of the Council of Light is to comfort yourself that ordinary people can't get five thousand elemental creatures (this is also a fact, otherwise the Council of Light would not have expected Rhodes to do this), this time Rhodes brought five thousand elemental troops, in case it is really completely lost here, it can be regarded as weakening Rhodes's strength.

Well......... Probably...... Maybe............ Should...............

Again, this is only a problem in the rear, but for Winter Castle on the front line, their problem is even more serious. In charge of this front is the military headquarters of the Land of Light, but right now, they have a headache. Because the situation in the Winter Castle is finally developing in the direction they least want to see.

After Rhodes came here, many of the forces of the Anti-Light Council faction immediately turned over and became masters, and decisively abandoned the coalition forces of the Land of Light and defected to Rhodes. At first, they were still a little apprehensive in their hearts. But Rhodes showed considerable enthusiasm in the face of the representatives——— although he remained as expressionless as ever. However, everyone has heard a lot of rumors about this lord, but they don't take it to heart. And the enthusiasm shown by Rhodes also made these people who were originally a little nervous in their hearts suddenly put their hearts at ease, and began to take a firm stand, completely surrounding the reflective parliamentary camp centered on Rhodes.

This also led to the polarization of the entire front line of the Winter Fortress becoming more and more obvious, and later, even during the meeting of the combined forces, the entire meeting hall could be clearly divided into two factions. The Council of Light, centered on the Combine representatives, and the Reflective Council, centered on Rhodes. Under such circumstances, the original plan of the military headquarters of the Kingdom of Light to coordinate and command the army for defense also failed.

However, as soldiers, they are still a little more practical than the group of idiot parliamentarians in the rear, and since they can no longer command and mobilize that group of hard bones now, they simply let Rhodes do it. With Winter Castle itself as the central axis, the entire Winter Castle is divided into two fronts, the north and the south, so the military department decisively handed over all the command of the southern front to Rhodes, and he took the strength of the Council of Light to the northern front. In this way, not only can the communication problems between the two sides be avoided, but also the conflict can be avoided——— after Rhodes injured Gülen before, the Mayflower Legion is on fire, and they are eager to fight with Rhodes' men immediately. However, the military department naturally did not want to see such a scene, so it simply separated the two groups of people and did their own thing, although this was not a good thing for the front itself. But it's better than the dark tide surging, and the entire front being stirred up by the Council of Light and the Council of Reflections.

But this also poses a big problem for the Combine command. That is, after getting the news, the Reflective Council faction suddenly couldn't wait to mobilize the military headquarters. All went to the Southern Front and threw them aside. This was a great embarrassment for the command of the Combined Forces, and in addition to this, there was a very important issue, that is, the liaison between the two sides. Although it is true that the coalition forces are doing this ostensibly to separate the unstable factors and do their own thing. But war, after all, requires collaboration. Therefore, it is also important to communicate with each other, but the problem is ...............

"Who wants to take on this position?"

The representative of the Combine sat in his chair, frowned, and looked at his colleagues beside him. But all he could see was embarrassed faces. After all, no one is stupid, and they all know very well that if they serve as a liaison between the Combine and Rhodes, then it means dealing with that terrible lord on a regular basis. Thinking of Gülen, who was still moaning in bed, this group of people suddenly felt a fear in their hearts, no one wanted to go back forever, but they also didn't want to go specifically to find death!

"The Undead Legion is approaching, and I think you know very well that we must work together to achieve victory."

The representative of the Combine frowned, he spread his hands and looked at everyone helplessly. This is not a pretext, this time Rhodes brought the statue of the Holy Maiden, no matter which side needs the support of the statue of the Holy Maiden, this will inevitably have to communicate with Rhodes, but the problem is......... This lord is not easy to deal with at all.

Isn't there anyone willing to stand up?

Seeing the silent crowd in front of him, he frowned. And at this time, suddenly, a crisp voice came.

"Leave it to me."

"Miss Sonia?"

Hearing this voice, many people turned their heads in surprise and looked in the direction where the sound came from. I saw Sonia get up from her seat and look at them quietly. And by the girl's side, Andre couldn't hide his surprise.

"Sonya, you ..............."

"I've led a team of investigators to deal with that lord, and I know him well, so I think I'm qualified for this position."

With that, Sonia stretched out a hand and pressed it to her chest.

"Excuse me, do you have any comments?" (To be continued......)
