【Recruitment】Set sail for a new round of recruitment!!!!
Looking at the girl in front of him, Rod's expression was very calm, but his heart was still a little complicated. Although in the game, there are inevitably some missions, those seemingly ordinary NPCs will suddenly jump out and shout "Ha Luha, in fact, I am an undercover agent", "Ha Luha, in fact, I am the Demon King", "Ha Luha, in fact, I...,"...", but that is just some mission plots, for players, there is no sense of engagement. At most, it feels like "Damn, isn't this a bit too much!" "It's just depressing.
But when he was in it, a companion who had been by his side for a long time, suddenly changed his face to a different body, even if he was a player who was familiar with the plot of the game, Rod at this moment felt that his heart was indescribably complicated, a little bitter, and a little weird, all in all, he couldn't tell whether it was good or bad. A game is a game, and players know this, so they may sigh over the fate of an NPC, but they won't feel that way.
It's a feeling that's hard to put into words.
At the same time, Rhodes was equally puzzled.
He was very clear about the meeting with Lijie. She is a spirit master, and she is a spirit master of a small mercenary group, and a princess is unlikely to do such a thing. After Rhodes came to this world, he also had some understanding of the mercenary group in this world that he had never experienced in the game. Such an occupation as a mercenary is dangerous, and it is also vulgar. Because of this, even Marlene has always been on top of the mercenary group since she came to them, and she didn't plan to stay here for a long time in the first place. This is also normal, the two sides are originally people of different classes, and a short contact may be very fresh, but it is difficult to say after a long time.
It's like Jack and Ruth on the Titanic, many people think it's a tragedy, but in fact, this is the most happy ending. Imagine if both of them survived and ended up coming together. As time goes by, they will discover each other's shortcomingsRuth, as a little sister of everyone, occasionally runs to the lower cabin to dance with those ordinary people, but can she tolerate the work of poor people wearing coarse cloth clothes and washing and cooking for others? And on the other hand, with Jack, a poor painter who is not famous, how can he support such a big and small sister? Even if he sells Ruth's ** painting every day, I'm afraid it won't be enough to make money.
Sometimes tragedy is the best way to hide the cruelty of reality, we don't have to watch how the princess and the knight in the fairy tale fell in love and got married, fought and quarreled over the trivial matters of firewood, rice, oil and salt, and then cheated on the affair, and finally broke up and divorced after the three children were angry
As soon as a person dies, everything is easy to do.
It's like Romeo and Juliet oh wrong, this is not class hatred.........
But then again, because of this, it is really difficult for Rod to accept that Lijie is a princess, if Lijie is really a royal family, then she is unlikely to do this kind of work at all.
Even if Marlene came to the mercenary group to do a part-time job, her status is still the heir of the Shania family, even if she wants to be such a person, her family will never agree to let Marlene be a mercenary like this, it is too vulgar to take money to do things. People at her level pursue more ethereal things, such as beliefs and beliefs. …,
But it is hard to imagine that Lijie has been working in a mercenary group for so many years, and seems to be enjoying it, and in general, the royal family is unlikely to allow such a thing. It is impossible for the royal family to tolerate letting a royal family be a mercenary, and some people may talk about it as a sign of royal proximity, but there will be many more people who think that it is very likely to shake the prestige of the royal family's rule. The reason why God is God is because He sits high on the throne of God and never shows people easily, so he will be feared by everyone. But if a god runs down tomorrow and works like an ordinary person to earn money, and then bargains there with vendors in the vegetable market for a few cabbages, then it is very questionable how much of this god's prestige will remain.
And what made Rhodes even more puzzled was that in the game, he was no stranger to the history of the Duchy of Moon, but he had never heard of the Principality of Moon that there was also a "Her Royal Highness the Princess" in the Duchy of Moon. This can only show one thing that she is an existence that has little influence in the game, no quest is related to her, and there is nothing that has ever demonstrated her existence, as a player, Rod naturally can't know everything one by one Of course, maybe there will be records of these royal families in those vast royal libraries, but for Rod, what is the need to investigate a fantasy NPC that has nothing to do with the game itself and the task? Even though he is known as a walking library, his knowledge is related to games
After all, he's here to play games, not archaeology.
"I know you're coming, Lijie."
Rhodes reached out, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for the girl, and then pushed it down in front of Lijie. The girl hesitantly picked up the teacup and stared at the red liquid inside with complicated eyes. Lijie's mood at the moment is also very chaotic, but unlike Rod, her mood is not only complicated, but also a little fearful.
That's right, fear.
After that plane crash, Lijie lost all her companions, and at that time, it was Rhodes who supported her and got her back on her feet. After that, it was he who helped him to re-develop and strengthen the mercenary group, and even Lijie herself couldn't believe what happened after that. Originally, they were just a small mercenary group in Parfield, but now, they represent the entire Parfield region, and they are about to stand on the stage of the Midsummer Festival, a sacred place in the hearts of all mercenaries.
Li Jie believed that if the head of the regiment was in the Heavenly Spirit, they would be very relieved to see that the mercenary group could come this far. And she also knew very well that if it weren't for Rod, none of this would exist. In fact, at this moment, Lijie has accepted Rod's existence in the depths of her heart. But she didn't know what Lu Dao was, but she still couldn't call Rhodes a group like Anne......... This is actually a very embarrassing thing, and Lijie herself has heard people talk about it behind her back several times. But Rhodes didn't care about that, but ,... "And now?" Is it really time to confess the secret she has been hiding in her heart?
Thinking of this, the girl put down the teacup and sat down in her heart to make a decision.
This is my apology and what I have to do.
"I'm sorry............ Mr. Rhodes, I have been hiding my identity from you, but I can assure you that I did not mean to deceive you, and in fact "..."... Even I thought I would give up this body forever. ”
At this, Lizzie paused, and then she looked up.
"As you can imagine, Her Highness and I are sisters, but ......... We are sisters of different bloodlines. ”…,
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Rode's eyes widened in surprise, could it be that Lijie was still the product of some scandal? But wait, remember that the Duchy of Moon has always been ruled by the Queen, so...,......., what is this.........
However, before Rod could quickly turn the corner, Lijie had already suddenly raised such a question.
"Mr. Rod, do you know how the archangel of the Dao Dao inherited?"
"This............ It's not very clear. ”
Hearing Lijie suddenly ask himself such an unrelated question, Rod was stunned for a moment, and he quickly searched it in his mind, but there was not much knowledge about the biological aspect of angel reproduction. But by this time, Lijie had already continued.
"The inheritance of the archangel is to awaken the sleeping soul from the angelic spirit through the resonance and its own bloodline, and let it grow with the resonance of the force, until the time is ripe, the former archangel will leave this world, and her power will be directly integrated into the body of the new archangel because of the same blood relationship. All in all, go ......... The heir born by the archangel does not need anyone's help. She is the crystallization of strength and soul
It is not the product of love. ”
"And such a thing?"
Hearing this, Rod couldn't help but be a little surprised, although Lijie's description was very hidden, but he still understood the meaning of the girl's words. To put it simply, the archangel actually gave birth to an heir through such a method as asexual reproduction? That's a strange story.........
"Yes, this is how Sister Lydia was born, she inherited the blood of the Holy Soul and the former Grand Duke, who was my mother. Exists as the heir to the new Archangel. ”
Speaking of this, Lijie lowered her eyes.
"But even the archangel needs love. During my mother's reign, she was in love with a prominent nobleman in the Duchy of Moon, and eventually, they were united and I existed. ”
Lijie's voice trembled a little, and she was also a little helpless.
"But at that time, my existence was nothing to the royal family. Because the heir of the Duchy of Moon is only the archangel, as a hybrid of human and angel, I do not have the strength and qualifications to sit in this position. I was destined to be just an ordinary princess, not like my sister with great strength, a smart mind, and a shining future. However, this is a sad start for my sister............"
Hearing this, Rhodes glanced at Lijie with some confusion, not understanding what the girl's words meant, but soon, Lijie also quickly gave an explanation.
"My mother's attitude towards me and my sister is very different, perhaps in her opinion, the birth of my sister is just her own obligation" and I am the fruit of her love, "Not to mention, I am a hybrid of human and angel, not as smart as my sister, not as strong as my sister, not as concerned as my sister, and have a beautiful future." To my mother, this seemed to me to be sad, so from the day I was born, my mother spared no effort to love and dot on me......... She loved me so much, but she never had a similar affection for my sister. ”
Saying this, Lijie showed a wry smile.
"The same thing, if I do it well, then my mother will praise it, and my sister will do it well, which is a matter of course for my mother. Because she was the one who succeeded to the position of archangel, this little thing was a matter of course for her. And if I failed, my mother would only comfort me, but never scolded me. But if my sister does something wrong, she will be severely punished by her mother...,
But I know very well that my sister has been working hard, and even with so many dazzling halos, she also expects her mother's love and attention, but my mother has given me all her love, and she thinks that this is compensation for me. Because I don't have that glorious future, and I don't have that kind of great power, I deserve to be compensated for this.
My sister's efforts never paid off, but she never showed any disappointment, and whenever she had free time, she would come to my room and listen to me tell the story of my relationship with my mother. It seems that in this way, she can also feel the love of her mother......... My sister is a true angel, but I wish she would be jealous of me, laugh at me, and insult me, so that I might feel better. But my sister never did this, until the time limit for a mother had arrived, and she had completely left this world.
At this, Lizzie paused, and then she bit her lip.
"Mother has always protected me very well, because when she fell in love with that human nobleman, there were actually many objections in the royal family, thinking that the Venerable Archangel did not talk about being entangled with humans, which was self-defeating. But for the sake of love, my mother finally suppressed those opposing opinions and was with her beloved, but even so, my mother was not a woman who was carried away by love, she knew what my existence meant to the Duchy of Moon and the entire royal family, so all along, my mother has protected me very well, and few people know about my existence. But with the death of my mother, my position began to gradually become awkward, and my sister didn't say much. But the nobles thought that my existence was a stain on the royal family, and even my father chose to sacrifice my existence for the sake of the country, but fortunately, I was still young at that time, and no one knew about me, so my father expelled me and kept me away from the Golden City. And I started to live alone. At that time, I had already made up my mind to give up my royal status and have decided to live like an ordinary person from now on. But before I left the Golden City, my sister found me and told me that if I wanted to return to the Golden City, then she would accept my presence at any time. But at the same time, my sister also admonished me
Once I decide to come back, it means that I am re-acknowledging my identity. At that time, I didn't really understand my sister's words, and at that time, I didn't think that I would have the opportunity to return to the Golden City here. ”
Saying this, Lijie raised her head and let out a long breath.
"But then, due to some accidents, I joined the regimental commander's team and used my strength to serve them. Like Marlene, I didn't plan to stay in the mercenary group for long at first, but after a lot of things happened, I finally decided to live as a mercenary, and for me, it was also a symbol of completely giving up my previous position,... "..."
Lijie looked at Rhodes with a complicated look in her eyes, but with a hint of apology.
"However, in the end, I was not able to give up this ............, and I came back."
PS: The monthly pass is not powerful, the number of votes is so small these days, I didn't pay attention to it and it was blown up...". )。 )
