Chapter 916: 'Month' IV.
In the night, the Thunder fell into the Holy Helmet City with a gust of wind.
Bond. Thunder led the loyalists of the Thunder family to stand quietly at the place where the Thunder landed. When the Thunder walked down, Pound. Thunder and the rest of the Thunder family's loyalists shouted, "Patriarch, welcome back!" β
Then, a group of Thunder family loyalists immediately sent Droz. Thunder swarmed and walked towards the council hall of the Holy Helm City.
When Dean, Gray and the others walked down, only Pound. Thunder stood there.
"Sage-sama!"
Bond. Thunder greeted him with a smile on his face.
It's just that no matter how you look at that smile, it's a skin smile and not a smile.
"Pound. Lord Thunder! β
Dean nodded as if unconsciously.
"This is Lord Gray, right? I've heard about your deeds, it's amazing! β
Bond. Thunder's eyes looked at Gray beside Dean, and said slowly in a slightly scrutinizing tone.
"What a compliment!"
Gray replied with a smile, his kind smile and handsome face that brightened up the night.
"Well, Mod hopes that you don't deliberately let go of water in the competition with Somo, we want to see a real battle, especially at this time - I have already arranged your foothold, please come with me!"
As he spoke, Pound. Thunder took Dean and the others to a military camp in the inner city of Thunder City.
"This is it, if you need anything, you can tell the guards here. They will notify me. And I'll do my best to help you do that! β
After speaking. Bond. Thunder left.
Dean, Gray, and Mord were left behind, along with the dozen or so squad leaders.
Mod and Agi and the others looked at each other, and then, looking at the military camp on the side, they felt a sense of estrangement and vigilance.
"Is he trying to release us?"
The reckless Tov looked at the guards around him with dissatisfaction, suppressed his anger and whispered.
"That's how it should be!"
Edge smiled, with the same anger on her face.
"Damn!"
Oren kicked the stake at his feet, and with a thud the stake was broken by the roots. attracted the surrounding guards to look sideways, and then became more and more vigilant.
Under such a vigilant gaze, Dean walked towards the barracks without care, and walked into the largest tent.
Naturally, Gray followed.
Mod hesitated and followed.
Then, there are more than ten squad leaders.
"I'm sorry, I should have been a problem to everyone!"
Dean sat down on a blanket and said slowly.
"Hey, the nobles don't have the ability to protect us, and when we find a way to protect ourselves, they immediately treat us as a thorn in the side! It's really ......"
Gray sneered cooperatively.
Suddenly, Mode and the ten squad leaders were stunned. Then, the complexion became more and more difficult to see.
Apparently. They are not stupid, and naturally think about why they have such treatment.
Because......
Their fame among prisoners of war!
Such fame, at this time, is a very special existence.
With a little utilization, it can have unexpected effects.
"We don't fight for power, so why treat us like this?"
Captain Pulley, who was born as a civilian, asked puzzled.
"Because, those noble lords don't believe that we won't fight for power!"
Edge sneered.
Aiji, who is also a civilian, has no less strength than any squadron leader, and the reason why he still holds the position of squad leader is because there are no more civilians among the squadron leaders of the Thunder Guard Legion.
Mode alone is already a special case.
The remaining nine people are all from noble backgrounds.
Only in this way can those nobles and high-ranking people be reassured.
As Edge spoke, the entire tent fell silent.
Call!
A long gasping sound broke the silence, and the eyes of the squad leaders looked at Maude, who was making a breathing sound.
"Your Majesty, I wish I could follow you!"
Under the gaze of everyone, Maud knelt down on one knee in front of Dean and said solemnly.
"Have you thought about it?"
Dean asked, looking at Mod.
"Well, I was hesitant to go back to Helmet City, but now...... I don't think I need to hesitate! Please allow me to ask! β
Mod replied, and then prostrated himself on the ground and saluted.
"Alright! So...... You will be my agent in Delfendilland! β
Dean said, raising his palm and placing it on top of Maud's head.
Suddenly, the moonlight shimmered.
Immediately, Mod had only reached a considerable level of [Body Forging Technique. Immediately reached the limit.
At the same time, the military swordsmanship of Emerald and Gao Sai also flashed in Mod's mind.
This is a perk that Dean gains after completing the 'Moon' foundation.
You can't impart a lot of advanced knowledge, but some basic knowledge is perfectly fine.
"Thank you for your kindness!"
Mod replied gratefully.
"I want to follow you too!"
Such voices rang out together.
Edge, Oren, Jack, Purley, and Tov fell to their knees.
"You will be taught by Mod!"
Dean said this, looking at the remaining five.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, we ......"
The five of them were hesitant.
"It's okay, I respect anyone's choice!"
Dean waved his hand, without the slightest insistence.
Because, Dean is well aware that such a demand is anachronistic and likely to backfire.
What's more, as long as a real seed is sown, then everything will fall into its course.
And Mod and the others also did not despise their original colleagues.
After all, these people are not like a few of them. No family. There is no shackles at all.
Of course. Because of this happened, the remaining few people couldn't stay in the tent in front of them, so they naturally changed to a different tent.
And this change was completely seen by the guards, and then truthfully relayed to Pound. Thunder.
"Oh, any strong castle is always fragile on the inside!"
Bond. Thunder laughed.
Everything in front of him was not beyond his expectations.
Or, to be more precise. It was all in his plan.
After learning from the prisoners of war of the returning Thunder City-State what Dean had done, and personally feeling the reverence of those prisoners of war for Dean, Pound. The Thunder began the plan in front of them.
Thunder City-State, just need the Thunder Family!
As for the rest?
It's better to disappear completely, even if the other person has helped.
What's more, the other party is not without restrictions, although the other party is very strong, but the restrictions of Defendilan are also very strong, Pound, who knows this well. Thunder sneered again.
He's already thinking about what's next.
If Dean can't see the reality clearly, don't blame him for being ruthless.
"Keep an eye on everything about them!"
Bond. Thunder commanded.
"Yes!"
The guard immediately turned and walked out.
And at the same time as the guards were immediate. Darrow. Thunder strode inβ
"Uncle and grandfather, why did you treat the Sage like that! He helped me come back from the dead. Let his uncle's soul rest in peace, and also rescue the prisoners of war in Thunder City, he deserves the respect he deserves! β
The young man asked in an almost questioning tone.
"Yes, he deserves the respect he deserves, but there must be a certain scope of respect, beyond which there is a catastrophe - a disaster called rebellion!"
Bond. Thunder nodded, not denying Dro. Thunder's point, but he reiterated.
"Our Thunder Family does not discriminate against or be hostile to any friendly faith!"
The young people reiterate the same.
"That was before, but now it's different - Thunder City is overrun by evil gods, and we need to take all the power into our own hands, not an outsider! If anything mishaps happen, he can walk away, and what about us? You have to stay here and accept the bitter fruits! β
Bond. Thunder Justice whispered awe-inspiringly.
"It is precisely because Thunder City is occupied by evil gods that we should unite all the forces that can be united, instead of suspicion like this!"
The young man's tone rose a few points, almost roaring.
"Everything I have done is for the sake of the Thunder Family-Patriarch, I hope you can understand!"
The old man did not give an inch, and looked at the young man with a calm attitude.
After the two men looked at each other for a full minute, the young man snorted coldly and turned to leave the room.
The old man watched the young man leave.
"Young people will never understand the importance of family!"
The old man whispered to himself, and then, with a raised hand, he ordered, "Let Somo come, I need to give him a difficult task!" β
Suddenly, in the shadows, a dead soldier of the Thunder Family disappeared in place.
Moments later, Somo appeared.
"Your Excellency!"
Somo bowed.
"Tomorrow you will compete with Mod, I will go to watch the ceremony - try hard, and if you win, I will give you the position of captain!"
Bond. Thunder said in an indifferent tone.
"Please rest assured, my lord!"
Somo was stunned for a moment, and then immediately replied loudly.
"Take this, it will give you a better chance of winning - we are thunder nobles, and we should not be underestimated by civilians, understand?"
Bond. Thunder placed a small box in front of Somo.
"Understood!"
Without too much hesitation, Somo took the box.
Then, with the wave of Pound Thunder's hand, he got out of the room.
And Pound. Thunder sat in a chair and thought quietly after Somo left.
The moonlight shone on his face, making the familiar face strange and mottled.
Power is not only a poison that corrupts people's hearts, but also a prelude to depravity.
Even after layers of cover-up, it is still difficult to escape the essence of it.
It's just that most people can't see or see clearly.
Or they see it and see it clearly, but they don't want to admit it.
