In the end, Rhodes managed to get Leo out. Although the dark elf is unwilling, as a dark elf who grew up underground, of course she understands not to anger Rhodes at will. However, of course, Rhodes could not have let Leo escape so easily, and in any case, her actions caused problems for the territory, so she must be punished. However, Rod's punishment of Leo was not the same as others thought, and he did not put Leo in a dungeon and imprisoned——— because Rhodes knew that being imprisoned in a dungeon was not a punishment at all for a dark elf. But this did not mean that he had no way to punish Leo, and soon, Rhodes gave an order that no one could understand, that is, Leo should go to the high platform in charge of the fortress to watch out for duty, and stay on it for a week!

This seemed a bit inexplicable to the others, and it was not a punishment in their eyes, but Leo's reaction surprised them all——— after hearing this decision made by Rod, the dark elf's face suddenly turned pale as paper. Although her complexion was originally white, at least it was a healthy white. And now, it was as if the blood in the body of this dark elf had condensed into ice in an instant, how pitiful it was.

It's no wonder that, in fact, all underground creatures have one trait, that is, fear of heights.

However, the fear of heights of the underground creatures is not the same as the fear of heights that people think, they are not afraid of the scenery from standing on the top of the abyss and looking down, on the contrary——— what they are most afraid of is looking up at the sky. Dwarves are the extreme representative of this, and one of the reasons why there are few dwarves on the Dragon Soul Continent is that dwarves prefer to survive between mountains and do not like to go out on adventures, but this is not true. It's true that dwarves don't like to go out, but it's false that they don't like to take risks. And the only and biggest reason to restrict dwarves from going out is ......... They fear the sky.

There is a famous saying of the former dwarven king that has spread far and wide in the underworld.

"Thousands of stones on it, when I stepped out of the cave. The moment you walk on the earth. I swear I have never felt such fear, I even felt my knees tremble when I looked up at the damn sky, and if I hadn't had chains and boulders on my feet, I would have been afraid that I would have left the earth and fallen into the endless sky as soon as I lifted my feet! ”

This reaction is incomprehensible to those on the ground. But for people who live underground, it is quite touching. The Dark Elves are no exception, not only that, but in addition to the "fear of heights", there is also a point that makes the Dark Elves more painful——— because they have been in the dark underground for too long, the Dark Elves have evolved a very powerful dark vision, and they do not need to rely on light to be able to see the dim underground environment. On the other hand, the dark elves are naturally most afraid of bright light. Even the dark elves who walked onto the surface were the same. However, as the land of eternal night, the night light in the country of night is not strong, so the dark elves can still endure it. But in the Land of Light............ That's another story.

Leo is not exempt from vulgarity. Before that, she mostly hid in the shadows during the day, or went to underground training grounds, and rarely went to the ground. As a result, now Rhodes not only wants her to go to the tower to keep a sentry, but also throughout the day............... Leo even wanted to die.

But what could she do? Originally, this matter was that she was wrong, in fact, after Leo saw Corinna, the history of blood and tears of those dark elves instilled in her heart immediately made her burn, and when Leo came back to her senses, she had already done something to Corinna......... This is the Dark Elves' instinctive reaction to the Elves. So Leo didn't refute it, so he admitted it.

Leo's affair was just an accident. Rhodes just dealt with it casually and then got back to business, but until then...............

"This ......... Rod, there's something we need to apologize to you. ”

"Huh?"

Looking at the embarrassed canary and the little bubble gum in front of him, Rod's eyes widened with some curiosity, he rarely saw two people so disgraced. The canary was always smiling, although she didn't say much. But it is also a testament to her composure and sophistication. And the little bubble gum is full of confidence, and she has always looked like Lao Tzu is the best in the world, and it is difficult to see them have such an expression. This couldn't help but make Rod feel surprised and puzzled. Soon, though, the canary gave the answer.

"That's right, Rhodes......... In the other day............ Well............... Her Highness Irene descended to the Land of Atonement Fortress. ”

"What?!"

Hear here. Even Rod was taken aback, he stood up in surprise and looked at the two of them.

"You didn't .................. Forget it, I don't think it's okay, so, what's going on? ”

Although it was a little embarrassing, the canary still smiled helplessly and told Rod the reason for it.

That's what happened after Christy and Ireen met, when Irene just asked Christie for a painting and left. And Christie didn't take it too seriously, but after returning to the fortress, Christie met a little bubblegum......... In the Land of Atonement, if anyone has the most time to spend with Christie, it's Anne and Little Bubblegum, who is taken to Winter Castle by Rhodes. The person who accompanied Christie naturally became Little Bubble Gum, and being praised by strangers for her good drawing naturally made Christie very happy, so the girl told Little Bubblegum everything that had happened before. Little Bubblegum didn't pay much attention to this, but when she heard Christie say Irene's name, she immediately exploded and immediately hurried to find the canary. And after listening to Bubblegum's report, the canary was also taken aback.

But luckily, Canary is much calmer than Bubblegum, and after hearing the news, she didn't immediately go on alert and search for something. Because the canary understands very well that at the level of Irene, mortals are ants, not to mention that the current people in the Land of Atonement are not enough for her to toss. Even if there are 100,000 troops, Ireen also wants to come and go, and if it doesn't work out and is in a hurry, it will be a big trouble to tear down the fortress. So she didn't say anything, but secretly checked the entire fortress with little bubblegum. But after that, Irene never appeared. Of course, the canary didn't tell anyone about it, in order to prevent them from worrying or acting irrationally. From this point of view. It was obviously a wise decision for Rhodes to hand over the management of the fortress to the Canary.

"I think she should have left the Land of Atonement and gone to the land of Moon.........

Speaking of this, even the canary himself was not sure, and after listening to the canary's description, the only thing Rhodes could do was to shake his head and sigh.

To be honest, although the canary and the little bubblegum took the matter on themselves, especially the little bubblegum, the girl was scared after that. Because when Anne was away, he was supposed to accompany Christie. As a result, she didn't get out of bed that day because she was too lazy. I let Christie go out alone, but I didn't expect this to happen. In case Ireen was ruthless at that time and killed Christie. Then Rod came back and little bubblegum really didn't know how to explain it, even if it was suicide to apologize, it wouldn't work............ Who's to say she's not alive now?

But to be honest, I really can't blame the two of them for not being vigilant about this matter, Rhodes was prepared in all directions before, he handed over the statue of the holy girl and the system authority to the canary, and he thought that he would be safe. In fact, it is not surprising that Rhodes thinks so, the death-proof enchantment of the statue of the Holy Maiden can make all the undead creatures have nothing to hide. And with the strength of a little bubblegum and canary. It was difficult for the people under the two of them to stir up any storm in the fortress. If you really want to be able to evade such tight protection, unless you are stronger than them. It's not the undead......... How can there be so many such people on the mainland?

There are indeed not many people on the mainland who meet this condition, but this does not mean that there are none, so didn't Irene come to the door............

In terms of strength, she is about the same as the two, and the dragon clan also has a talent bonus, and in this respect she is no worse than Canary and Little Bubblegum. In terms of race, the Night Wurm is a living creature, not an undead creature, so it is naturally impossible to show any problems in the death-proof enchantment. And even Rhodes didn't expect that Her Royal Highness the princess had come here again. The undead army has retreated, why did she come to Moon? And......... She also took a painting by Christie?

Hearing this, Rod couldn't help but laugh. In the game, there is a statement that Irene is actually the princess version of Lydia, but compared with Lydia who represents the sun, Irene is also as restrained as the moon, quiet, introverted, and not so ostentatious. But now it seems that she is really a literary girl, these two highnesses are really a perfect match. The Canary said that she had not been found in the Land of Atonement, so would the princess have gone to the Golden City to discuss art with Lydia.........

If it was someone else, then Rod would still think that the other party had entered Moon to cause sabotage, but if it was Irene, Rod thought it was really possible. He is a loyal supporter of Lydia, and the strange temper of the Grand Duke, Rhodes, is not unaware, there have been many rumors that Lydia has sneaked into the territory of the Night Nation in order to collect those expensive and beautiful works of art, and now it seems that these two Highnesses are indeed the same kind of people...............

"Since you can't find it, let's just let her go."

Irene didn't take Christie hostage, didn't destroy the fortress, and didn't kill anyone. This made Rod breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and he had a good impression of Her Royal Highness the princess. In the game, Rhodes has always been "only hearing her voice, not seeing her", so his understanding of Irene is just the discussion and contact of the most ordinary players. What he couldn't figure out was whether Irene was going to go to the Golden City and pass by her fortress along the way, or if she had come here with ulterior motives to do something. Judging from the performance of the other party, the latter is more likely. After all, with Irene's strength, those mountains and anything can't stop her at all, as long as she hides her identity and can enter Moon without being noticed at all, there is no need to come to her fortress to make such a move. It's just that what Ireen came to her fortress for, then Rod doesn't know.

"But we still have to send someone to report this matter to Lydia, remember, don't spread this news to any third party, just inform Lydia."

If Her Royal Highness the princess of the country of night is allowed to come to her own country with a big stab, I am afraid that it will really turn the sky upside down.

This is the end of the question about Irene, although Rhodes is indeed full of doubts, but since Irene is not in the Land of Atonement, then he doesn't need to worry about anything. This does not mean that what they are doing is wrong, in any case, there are indeed very few people who have the ability to break through the triple defense of the statue of the Holy Maiden and the canary and the little bubble gum......... This kind of bad luck is just a special case.

Except for this surprising news, everything in the Land of Atonement is still stable, but Marlene brought good news to Rod, that is, the War Method, which has not come forward, has finally come to the fortress of the Land of Atonement to report to Rod. This is naturally good news for Rod, the first thing he looked at was the strength of the group of battle mages in the Battle Law Regiment, which is also the most lacking in the current Land of Atonement Fortress, they can appear at this time, which can be regarded as filling the problem of insufficient mid-level troops under Rod, but the problem is ...............

"Their situation is not as good as you think it is Rhodes."

Marlene's words immediately poured a basin of cold water on Rod's head.

PS: I decided to resume the daytime shift and the evening shift in the future. This night and morning are indeed enough headaches............ After two days of tossing, I couldn't stand it............ OTL (To be continued......)
