What's the situation?

Hearing this voice, Rod and Lijie both stopped and glanced at each other, but at this time, they saw a commotion inside, and then Joey walked out of it with a sad face, his face was still blue and purple, and there were nosebleeds flowing out from time to time, looking quite embarrassed, not only that, but he also muttered in his mouth that he didn't know what he was saying. And when he looked up, he saw Rod and Lijie standing outside the camp, which made Joey stunned for a moment, and then he quickly ran over.

"Boss?! Boss, you're back, why didn't you tell us earlier? Oh, let me tell you, Miss Lijie commanded us in the battle today to ambush that group of idiots from the Southern Legion......... To be honest, I was a little worried at first, but I didn't expect Miss Lijie to be able to do so well........."

"Okay, I know this."

Rod interrupted Joey's rambling speech with a wave of his hand, and then he raised his right hand and pointed to the camp.

"What's going on inside?"

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

Hearing Rod's inquiry, Joey's smile that had been like a flower immediately wilted like a frosted eggplant, he smiled bitterly a few times, touched his face with a blue nose and swollen face, and muttered something to say, but after hesitating for a moment, he still said to Rod with a smile.

"Actually, it's nothing, my lord, it's just that those captives are not very obedient and make some trouble........."

Hearing this, Rod glanced at Joey, then nodded to Lijie, and then the two walked into the camp quickly, and seeing the two people entering the camp, Joey also smiled helplessly, turned his head and followed again. After entering the camp, it was not long before Rhodes discovered the source of the commotion. It was in a clearing in the middle of the camp, where dozens of mercenaries were gathering at the moment. I don't know what the noisy road is saying, and a slurred angry scolding can be vaguely heard coming from it, although I don't know what is being done inside the road, but judging from the mercenaries' good looks, something interesting is indeed happening here.

"What happened?"

Looking at the noisy scene in front of him, Rod couldn't help frowning, and then asked in a deep voice. Hearing his voice, the mercenaries quickly stopped making noise. They looked at Rod in surprise, who didn't know when he appeared behind them, and then quickly dispersed, and soon, Rod could see the situation inside.

Lying in the middle of the clearing was a young man in the armor of the Southern Legion, who looked no more than twenty-seven or eighteen years old. With short brown hair, his face is also blue and swollen at the moment, and there are bruises everywhere, not only that, but the face that originally looked fair is full of smoke and fire marks, and it looks extremely embarrassed. And beside him, Marfa and Lando were standing, and the two of them didn't know what Lu Dao was talking about. After seeing Rod, they also immediately showed a look of surprise. Then he quickly came to Rod's side and saluted him.

"Commander, you're back."

"My lord, long time no see."

"Well, I'm back, I've heard the details of Qilian, and you're doing very well............ What's going on? ”

Saying this, Rod also raised his chin and nodded in the direction of the young man. Then he asked. And I heard his inquiry. Lando and Marfa smiled wryly, and then Lando took a step forward. Then he opened his mouth and explained the whole thing to Rod.

Although Lijie's battle plan is perfect, after all, the level of Seven Lovers is limited, and her [Seven Hells] only severely damaged two-thirds of the opponent's cavalry even in the Holy Guardian Enchantment, and these cavalry were eventually killed in the flames. However, there were still a few hundred cavalrymen who survived, and then were captured by the mercenaries and brought back to the fortress. And this young man was the commander of those cavalry. Perhaps because of good luck, or perhaps because he was protected by his own men, he was not hurt much in that explosion, but was only stunned. And after waking up and finding that he had been captured, the young commander's expression was not very good, just silent, looking gloomily at the ground, and did not respond to the words of others.

His appearance makes Joey, who is in charge of him, naturally very unhappy, originally the people between the south and the north look at each other unpleasantly because of such and such problems, you used to have the money to see us as beggars, and now you have become a damn prisoner, and who are you dragging 2580,000 yuan like this? So Joey, who couldn't get used to seeing this young man, began to speak sarcastically, as the most active member of the Starlight Guild, Joey's damage to people was naturally not the same, and he directly made this unlucky child's sarcastic face speechless, as for the other mercenaries, of course, they would not speak for this enemy, but watched the excitement from the side. However, Joey, the kid, was also self-inflicted, and he had no remorse at all, so he continued to sarcastically ridicule there, and insulted General Dade, who had chosen him as his commander, for being an old fool. And at this moment, the young man finally couldn't hold back any longer, jumped up and shouted, and then a head hammer slammed into Joey's face. Pity this little thief didn't expect that the other party would suddenly erupt and be directly smashed to the ground, and the mercenary next to him, who was originally watching the excitement, naturally rushed up and dragged Joey out when he saw that the situation was not good. But I didn't expect that this young man was not easy to deal with, although he was tied, he still rushed left and right, and a few mercenaries had no way to subdue him. Fortunately, Marfa and Lando hurried to the commotion and restrained the young man.

After listening to Lando's story, Rod didn't speak for the first time, but carefully glanced at the unlucky young man not far away, just now he was still angry, but now he has become much calmer, I have to say, Lando's way of dealing with it is also very good, if he comes up and says bad things about this young man, then I'm afraid that the young man will probably jump up and scold now, but since Lando's statement is very neutral and there is nothing worthy of criticism, then he naturally has no way to say anything more.

Retracting his gaze from the young man, Rhodes looked at the mercenaries next to him again, and sure enough, he saw several mercenaries with red and bruised faces, looking a little embarrassed. It seems that this young man's skills are not bad, and Rhodes is still very confident in the strength of his subordinates, and they are now also thirty ** and almost forty levels, elite peak warriors. Although the elite peak of the aborigines and the elite peak of the players are completely two different concepts, at least here. It's not easy to be able to make them suffer. And it is really a bit unusual that this young man can still toss in the hands of these mercenaries for so long when his hands are tied.

Thinking of this, Rod suddenly became a little interested in this young man, he walked to the young man's side, examined him carefully, I don't know what Lu Dao is about, Rod always felt that this young man seemed a little familiar, he frowned. Then he asked.

"What's your name?"

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

Hearing Rod's inquiry, the young man did not answer immediately, but first snorted coldly, and then stood up from the ground, then raised his head and looked at Rod stubbornly and unyieldingly. Then he replied.

"John, John. Greer. ”

When he reported his name, this young man even puffed up his chest, looking quite proud, which immediately made the mercenaries next to him dissatisfied, you are now a prisoner, our boss is standing in front of you, and you are still dragged like this? I think you kid is underwhelming, isn't it?

But Rhodes was not as angry and angry as the others, on the contrary. The moment he heard the other party report his home, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then, he squinted his eyes, looked up and down carefully, and looked the young man in front of him carefully——— and at the same time secretly shocked in his heart. The name Greer is not new to Rhodes.

In the game of Dragon Soul Continent, John. Grell is a legendary figure, and his background. It's also very sighing and ironic. He was born in a noble family of once prominent names in the north. But John. Greel's childhood was not happy, as his mother was a Southern aristocrat. And his father's family is a die-hard royal party, and the two sides met at a royal reception, and finally fell in love at first sight. In order to marry John's father, her mother even abandoned her own family and went north alone, and eventually married John's father. However, this poor woman did not wait for the happy life she expected, and because of her status, many people in the man's family were quite suspicious of her, and they were extremely vigilant. Because in their opinion, this is nothing more than a trick by the nouveau riche of the south to integrate into the noble blood of their family through dirty means, and John's birth makes these people very hostile, as the only son of the family, John will undoubtedly inherit the family in the future. But it is impossible for others to accept a "mongrel" mixed with southern blood to inherit the family, not to mention that his bloodline is likely to make him make a decision to favor those southern merchant nobles.

Because of this, since John's birth, he has encountered discrimination and abuse and naked hostility, and his mother is also in tears all day long, although she tries her best to protect her children, but in the face of the huge influence of the family, she is still too vulnerable alone.

Eventually, an event changed John's life——— as he got older, those people hated and feared him more and more, so they came up with an idea. They sent a man to seduce John's mother, who was treated coldly, and after more than ten years of painful life, the innocent love that the mother originally harbored has been left in the face of the cold reality, their love is not recognized, and under family pressure, John's father is also very cold to his lover on weekdays. This also makes the poor woman break the jar, abandon her love, and start to enjoy sensual pleasures to escape reality.

After that, the family members denounced her to the family head, and after seeing the fact that his wife was cheating, the family head became even more furious and punished John's mother severely, and not only that, he even began to wonder if John was his own son, and finally, under the influence of the family, he expelled John and his mother from the family, so that they had to live on the streets.

Under such a blow, John's mother was completely desperate, and finally left John, who was only six years old, to commit suicide by jumping into the river. Before she died, she told John to find her family, hoping that her family would take in the poor child. After his mother's death, John followed her last wish and went to the south after many hardships, and finally succeeded in finding her mother's family. However, nothing has changed there about his situation.

In the north. Those people were unusually wary of him because of his southern ancestry. In the South, John was also spurned for being half of his northern ancestry, and he was often ridiculed, sarcastic, and nakedly ridiculed by his mother's people for his "northern hillbilly stench in his bones", and John, unable to bear this ridicule, eventually left his family in anger to join the army, and after that. He rose through the ranks and eventually became an outstanding commander. The biggest impression left by this man on the player is that he loves and hates clearly, and he dares to act, and in the game, he takes advantage of the fact that the Duchy of Moon is attacked by the Night Dragon Kingdom and has no time to take care of it, and he waves his army north. completely destroyed his father's family, and he also stabbed his own father, which can be regarded as avenging his mother. And his move caused an uproar, although many players know the poor background of this general, but at the moment of national crisis, you make such a move for your own selfishness, it is simply unreasonable!!

However, the general soon silences the player with his actions——— after destroying his father's family, he leads his army to join the front line of the battle against the Night Dragons. And as a commander with a tough character. The cavalry corps he led was also extremely strong, and it could even be said that he was the only general in the Duchy of Moon who dared to go head-to-head with the undead army without losing the upper hand.

If Garcia is a cunning wolf, then John. Grell was even more like an angry bull, and Rhodes had seen him lead 10,000 iron horsemen to charge at the front of the endless army of immortals, and it was like a howling hurricane, fierce and powerful. There is no room for resistance. And those undead armies are in front of him. It's as fragile as cheese.

Of course, this general naturally died in the vast sea of the undead army. It was not surprising that his kind of lethal style of play would have such an ending.

But Rhodes didn't expect to see him here.

It's a lot of fun.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Rhodes couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, it seems that the so-called Seon lost his horse, how do you know that the sentence is really still reasonable, he worked hard to come to the front line of Parfield to make such a trip, and actually caught such a big fish. I was thinking about whether to find a few Principality of Moon to increase my strength in the future, and now there is such a dish, if you don't eat it, then you really can't help yourself.

Thinking of this, Rod already had a plan in his heart.

"Loosen the rope for him."

Rod said, making a gesture to the mercenaries beside him, and soon, someone came up to untie the rope for John, while the other mercenaries watched him vigilantly, after all, they all knew that this guy was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and now untie the rope for him, this guy may make more trouble. But......... In front of the head of the regiment, does he have a part to make a move?

But instead of making a fuss as the mercenaries thought, the young man only frowned, moved his numb wrist, and took two steps back to look at Rod.

"Mr. Elant, I didn't expect to meet you here. It seems that I have not been wronged this time. ”

"You know me?"

Hearing John's words, Rod couldn't help but be a little surprised, he didn't remember that he had seen this young man, otherwise, how could he wait until now to think of this? However, in the face of Rod's inquiry, the corners of John's mouth twitched slightly, revealing a slightly sarcastic smile.

"It's a joke, Mr. Elant, and it's surprising if there is anyone in the whole of the South who doesn't know your name, let alone your ............... features."

At this point, John didn't continue, but looked Rhodes up and down, then spread out his hands and shrugged his shoulders, but he didn't need to speak, Rhodes knew what he wanted to say. But to be honest, Rod didn't expect this guy to be so observant, he thought John was the kind of fierce man who walked to the end with a tendon, but now it seems that this guy is not as reckless as he thought——— it's no wonder, how can he lead the army and the undead army head-on with bravery?

Thinking of this, Rhodes nodded to John, then gestured to him, and then turned and walked towards the tent.

"Come with me, Mr. John, I have something I want to talk to you about privately."

Walking into the tent, John was unceremonious. Directly pulled a chair and sat down, and then looked at Rod in front of him. And Rhodes was leaning back at his desk, clasping his hands around and staring at the young man in front of him. Neither of them spoke, and it was not until a moment later that John smiled wryly.

"Well, I surrender, Mr. Elant. You told me to come here. You didn't come to invite me to tea. ”

"Of course not, Mr. John. In fact, I came to you this time because I wanted to discuss something with you. ”

Rod shook his head slightly at John's inquiry, and then he raised his head and looked at the man in front of him. Speak.

"I would like to ask you, are you interested in joining our Starlight Guild?"

Hearing Rod's inquiry, the expression on John's face changed slightly.

"Join the Starlight Guild?"

The young commander repeated the phrase, staring at Rhodes like a monster, and then he shook his head.

"You're really joking, Mr. Elant, I'm a soldier of the Southern Legion, how can I go to your mercenary guild to be a mercenary?"

"It used to be."

Rod interrupted John with a wave of his hand. He narrowed his eyes and looked up triumphantly.

"But now, you're a captive, Mr. John. And......... You may soon be dead. ”

“…………………”

Hearing Rod's words, John raised his brow slightly, he looked at Rod, and fell silent for the first time. Soon, though, John shook his head.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Elant. I am a military man. A soldier would rather die than give in, and I would rather die on the battlefield. I don't want to survive in this way. ”

"Is this your pride as a Southerner?"

Hearing John's answer, a strange gleam flashed in Rod's eyes, although the John in the game was able to fight side by side with the Duchy of Moon after avenging his family. But at that time, after all, the confrontation between the North and the South was not so fierce, and now, the North and the South have officially broken up, will John still have that kind of national concept? If that's the case, then Rhodes would have to give up on this guy, and if he really is the kind of die-hard Southern supporter, then there's no need to go on.

"Of course, there are reasons for that, but the most important thing is that I have to do one thing, and only this one, I have to do it myself. I'm sorry, but my opinion of the North is not as bad as those in the Southern Council, but now that we are our own masters, we will not talk about such frivolous things. ”

"But the dead can't accomplish anything."

"I'm not dead yet, Mr. Elantre."

When he said this, a confident smile appeared on John's face, although Rod didn't know where the confidence of this young man came from, but he was sure that the other party was definitely not the kind of person who sat still. At this, as if he had said that, John did not say anything more, but stood up and turned and walked out of the camp.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you if you called me just for this little frivolous thing, Mr. Elantre."

And just as John was about to leave, Rod's leisurely voice came from behind him.

“……………… Is it because of the Rockfield family? Mr. John. ”

Hearing this, John finally stopped, and he turned his head, his face looked more serious than ever, and even with a hint of iron.

"How did you ...............?"

"I think you may have forgotten, Mr. John."

Looking at the expression of the man in front of him, Rhodes knew that he had made the right bet.

"I am an aristocrat, and among the aristocracy, the last thing that is lacking is gossip. The shame of the Rockfields', I have heard this rumor before. ”

“………………！！”

Sure enough, when he heard Rhodes say the words "the shame of the Rockfield family", John's face suddenly sank, he clenched his fists, and an unprecedented, crazy rage-like momentum emerged from his body, he clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were red, and he stared at Rhodes deadly. After a moment, he said word by word.

"Mr. Elante, do you say this to mock me?"

"Of course not, I just said, we can make a deal."

Feeling the momentum that erupted on John's body, Rod's expression did not change in the slightest, but deep down he nodded secretly. When John was arrested before, Rhodes didn't know what his strength was. And now, when the angry John completely showed his momentum, Rhodes could already accurately feel that this young man now had the strength to reach the thirty-ninth level of the elite peak, as long as he took one more step, he could step into the master realm and become a master of swordsmanship——— no wonder even if his hands were tied, those mercenaries could not do anything about him.

However, it is a pity that although he and Rod are only one level apart on the surface, the gap between the player and the aborigines is still not so easy to fill.

"As long as you are willing to join my guild and serve me wholeheartedly, then I can promise you that I will help you completely erase the Rockfield family from this world."

Hearing this, John shuddered all over, and then he looked at Rod with wide eyes and disbelief. Rod, on the other hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at John, who had already reached the door of the tent with a leisurely expression.

"What do you think of this deal? Mr. John? ”
