Chapter 96: The Fate of Intersecting (IV)

After Rhodes left the Land of Atonement, Leo has been in charge of training Joey's team of thieves, and is responsible for secretly protecting Sarah's alchemy workshop during the week, and then monitoring the situation around the stronghold. I have to say that in this regard, the ability of the dark elves is indeed not comparable to ordinary thieves. It's just that her relationship with other people is limited to this, in fact, in Rod's harem, there are also several factions. Because the canary has followed Rhodes for the longest time and is most familiar with Rhodes, he is considered the leader of all, plus the canary has a gentle personality and strong strength. So although she wasn't the prettiest of them all in terms of appearance, in fact almost no one would object to what the canary said. And then Marlene and Lijie are childhood sweethearts' friends, and they have gone to Rod's bed together, so they are naturally more intimate, and these two people form an invisible offensive and defensive alliance. Of course, they get along well with Anne and Canary. Therefore, although they both know about the relationship between each other and Rod, they have no objection.

Although Labis has a good impression of Rod, she has not progressed to "that step" after all, so it is considered an out-of-the-situation, while Seven Love is a variable and not easy to figure out. As for Christie, there is no need to mention it, the women around Rod are very aware of Rod's feelings for Christie, at least not the kind of relationship that wants to hug her to bed.

But ......... like Leo, Sonia To others, it was a little unacceptable. Although Rhodes has never been open about his relationship with Leo and Sonia to others, women are very sensitive in this regard, so neither Annie, Lijie nor Marlene have any contact with Leo. As a member of the Council of Light, Sonia had previously clashed with everyone in the Land of Atonement, so naturally she was not in the queue to be popular with them. Because of their transcendent status, the canary doesn't have to care about this. And with her understanding of Rod, of course she knows the status of the two women in Rod's psychology.

Because of this, Marlene has some complaints about the trouble caused by Leo this time. This is not just because of the jealousy of women, but because Leo does not have much communication with them, so she naturally can't treat Lijie like her. Annie, Labis and the others did the same to help Leo. And this time, no matter what, Leo is wrongβ€”β€”β€” after all, it is too much to attack the diplomatic envoys of other countries for no reason!

So this time, after Leo's attack failed and she was caught, Marlene did not ask for release or put Leo on her side to imprison, but let Corinna detain Leoβ€”β€”β€” which also meant to make Corinna angry, on the one hand, it was naturally because she was also a woman like Rod, she didn't like dark elves like Leo. But fortunately, Marlene also knows very well that Rhodes doesn't have much affection for Leo, if Rhodes is affectionate to this dark elf and loves to die and live, Marlene will definitely be jealous. When the time comes, the overturned vinegar jar will be counted in terms of tons.........

Although Marlene didn't say too much bad things about Leo in front of Rod, Rod still sensed that she and Lijie were dissatisfied with Leo, but Rod didn't plan to resolve it. As Marlene thought, Rhodes didn't have much affection for Leo, more of a physical obsession, and he only had a relationship with her because he wanted Leo to completely surrender to him and be his loyal subordinate, and he modified the contract of soul sacrifice. Even that time it wasn't out of love. Rather, it was for Rod's own needs, and by the way, to satisfy his curiosity that he had not yet tasted the taste of the dark elves. If you really want to talk about feelings. I'm afraid Rod has more to Celestina than Leo. In Rod's heart, the relationship with Leo is that of master and servant, as for talking about feelings or something......... It's not there yet.

Because of this, Rhodes didn't try to eliminate Marlene and Lijie's dissatisfaction with Leo, and this time Leo did go too far, which was a headache. Second, as a veteran of flowers. Rhodes also has a good understanding of women's psychology, even if the Dragon Soul Continent is not monogamous like the earth, it is impossible for women to accept an outsider so peacefully, especially an outsider they don't understand and are not important. So Rhodes didn't plan to be a good old man. Marlene and Lizzie had to be open-minded and tell them that Leo was actually a good person......... I hope that for the sake of everyone who has been in the same bed, they can take care of the overall situation and the harmony of the harem............... Rod knew very well that if he really did that, it would be a disaster for the rhythm of Xiao Wall, and maybe even the blood would end up in the end.

So in the face of Marlene and Lijie's complaints, he did not refute or give any explanation. Just nodded and listened to the two of them. Because Rod also knows Marlene and Lijie's personalities very well, they complain in front of themselves at most to express the embarrassment and dissatisfaction that Leo has caused them to make this happen, and they don't plan to take this opportunity to make Rhodes kick her out of here quickly. Especially Lijie, she is a spiritual master of the church herself, and she is also responsible for the combat training of spiritual teachers in the church during this time, but now that this incident has happened, she is naturally embarrassed to death. Not to mention Marlene, as the de facto person in charge of the Land of Atonement when Rhodes was away, she also had to deal with the internal and diplomatic implications of this matter, which was a huge headache.

So Rod naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to accuse or refute the complaints of the two, but just appeased them a little and calmed their grievances. Of course, this is only a superficial reassurance, and the real actual action will probably have to wait until tonight for Rod to put it into practice...............

That being said, but people still have to be fished out. Moreover, no matter what, Corinna is a representative of the country of law, and when she encounters such a thing, as a lord, she naturally has to come forward in person. But it also requires a method, but for Rod, the method has never been a problem.

After some preparations, Rhodes soon found himself in front of the church, which was a tall triangular building made of black stone bricks. Unlike the opulent religious buildings that Rhodes had seen on earth, the church's architecture felt very understated, heavy, and calm. It looks more like a combination of a bank and a courthouse, full of unquestionable majesty and nobility. The most conspicuous thing is the emblem hanging above the church gateβ€”β€”β€” which is the emblem of the dragon holding a sword and a balance at both ends, which is also the symbol of the country of law.

As a representative of the country of law. Corinna lives in the side courtyard of the church, and as an elf, she does not need any special comfort and luxury, as long as she can sleep and eat. After announcing his name, Rhodes and the others were soon taken to the side courtyard, where he met Corinna. and Leo, who is locked up in a water prison.

The elves' so-called water dungeon is naturally not the kind of dungeon under Rhodes Castle that is dark and full of rotten and smelly puddles. Rather, it is a square connected entirely by a barrier of water. Leo was locked inside, but what made Rhodes a little curious was that the dark elves did not languish at this moment, on the contrary, she gritted her teeth and stared at Corinna not far away with deep hatred, as if Corinna had killed her own parents............ But for the dark elves, isn't it common to kill the whole family?

Seeing Rhodes coming. Corinna also looked up at him, but soon, a look of surprise flashed in Corinna's eyes.

This time to the church, of course, Rhodes will not come alone, but the combination he brought is unexpectedβ€”β€”β€” in addition to the canary, this time Rhodes was accompanied to the church by Agameve and Labis, and the two petite figures wrapped in white cloaks.

Greyhill and Mardaras.

"Hello, my lord."

See this combination. Corinna was a little confused, but she quickly stood up. He nodded to Rod. And Rod also quickly returned the salute.

"I'm sorry to interrupt you, Miss Corinna."

Rod saluted Corinna, then looked up.

"I think you know why I'm here, Miss Corinna. I solemnly apologize to you for the rude behavior of my men, which is a dereliction of duty caused by my ill-conceived consideration. Please be able to forgive me. ”

"That's not the problem, my lord."

As soon as she got down to business, Corinna's face immediately became serious, and she frowned and looked at Rod dissatisfied.

"I'm very disappointed in you. I always thought you would be a good friend of our elves, but now ............... I was surprised that you were hanging out with the Dark Elves. Do you have anything to say about that? ”

"I think it's just a misunderstanding."

In the face of Corinna's inquiry, Rod's face remained unchanged. He only raised his brow slightly, and then replied.

"Leo was my prisoner in the previous battle, and after that, she surrendered to me and became my subordinate. I know of the feuds between the Elves of the Dao and the Dark Elves, but forgive me for being rude, these feuds don't seem to have much to do with me as a human. I sincerely apologize to you for the loss and shock caused to you by this incident, and I am willing to compensate for it. But beyond that............... I'm sorry, I can't promise anything. ”

"She's a dark elf, Lord Lord, and although she doesn't look like it, she ............ You should know exactly what the Dark Elves stand for. ”

"Of course, Miss Corinna. I don't want to impress you with any argument that there are aliens among the dark elves, but Leo is my subordinate after all, and for me, whether it is an elf or a dark elf, as long as it is my subordinate, then it is the same. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

This time, Corinna didn't answer immediately, after all, the people around Rhodes were too convincing, and if there were only dark elves around him, then Corinna could still think that the other party was just making excuses. But looking at the elves around Rod, Corinna also had nothing to say.

And even Rod himself sighed unusually at this time, he looked around and couldn't help whistling in his heart. This is almost a historic gathering of elves. Elemental Elves, White Elves, Moon Elves, Alchemy Elves, Dark Elves......... This is the living history of the elves. From beginning to end, there was no vacancy at all. The Elemental Elves were the first elven race to branch out from the elves and enter the elemental realm. The White Elves are the oldest and most glorious race of the Elves, and the Moon Elves are the glorious race that succeeded the White Elves after the Creation War. Belhemus and the Dark Elves created a new branch of the Elves in order to escape the Creation War............ If only Agame, Glen Hill, Madaras, Corinna, Labis, and Leo had each told the history of their race. That's a complete elven chronicle.

"But I warn you, Lord Lord, the Dark Elves are different from other elves, they are evil, cruel, and ..............."

"Nonsense!!"

It was at this time. Leo, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, and she stood in the water prison, looking angrily at the startled Corinna.

"It's you who are obviously evil and cruel! You wicked goblins have been merciless on the surface of the earth, slaughtering our women, children, and children, and forcing us to hide in the darkness! You call us traitors, but in fact you yourselves are the most hypocritical and evil betrayers! Even if we find a new life in the dark underground, you never give up trying to destroy us, do you? We have always longed for peace. But the blood-stained sword is your only answer! ”

"What........................"

Hearing this, Corinna was dumbfounded, she looked at Leo blankly, unable to say a word.

"Any elf who dares to disobey you and disagree with your values will be expelled and killed, and this is what you hypocritical surface elves have done! All we can do now is hide in the dark, dark underground, and mingle with the devil. Dancing with the dead, it's all because of you brutal goblins! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

Hear here. Even Labis next to her showed a somewhat approving expression, not to mention what she said before, the Belhems clan was forced to leave precisely because their concept of transforming nature and life was not recognized by the elves, and finally went to the road of destruction. From this point of view, she and Leo also have some common language. And it can be seen that in fact, the elves are not as innocent as Corinna claims.

Agapy, on the other hand, watched quietly from the side. There was not the slightest word spoken. As elemental elves, they had gone to the Elemental World Realm as early as the beginning of their creation, and the war in the main plane had nothing to do with them. Instead, Greysil and Madaras tilted their heads and stared curiously at the scene in front of them. After all, they can be said to be the witnesses of this contradictory history. Even the existence that created this history with his own hands.

"It's just a lie made up by the dark elves!"

Corinna never seemed to expect to get such an answer from the dark elves, which made the moon elf girl confused for a while.

"It was you who gave up fighting with the enemy and fled underground in order to escape the war, but this has nothing to do with us! What you say is nonsense!! ”

"The History of the Victors."

Faced with the argument between Corinna and Leo in front of him, Rod shrugged his shoulders, then turned to the canary beside him. The canary, on the other hand, smiled slightly and did not speak. In fact, whether it is a moon elf, a dark elf or an alchemy elf, there is a certain degree of subjectivity in the record of history, and in this regard, perhaps only the detached elemental elves and white elves have enough to speak.

However, Rhodes did not come here to help the elves integrate a unified understanding of history.

"Alright, two."

Thinking of this, he made up his mind, stepped forward, and stopped the two of them from moving further. He looked at Leo first, lowered his face and spoke.

"Miss Leo, I think you should understand that this is not a dark underground, and whatever past the dark elves have encountered has nothing to do with us. You are now my subordinate, and the enmity between the dark elves and the elves is a thing of the past, and I don't want you to cause any impact on my territory because of this kind of thing. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

In the face of Rod's words, Leo didn't speak, she just gritted her teeth, closed her mouth and lowered her head. At this time, Rod turned around and looked at Corinna next to him.

"Miss Corinna, I apologize to you for the danger you have encountered this time, and I assure you that I will punish Leo and make her not to do anything like it again. If you need anything, you can just ask for it, and as compensation, as long as it is within my ability, then I will definitely try to do it. ”

"But ....................."

Hearing Rod's answer, Corinna frowned, she looked at Rod, but soon, Corinna set her eyes on Greysil and Madaras, and after a moment of silence, she nodded helplessly.

"Well, I hope you'll keep your word, my lord. I will remember your words, and this time, I will not pursue it again. And I'm not going to report back to the country of France. However, I don't want the same thing to happen again, so take it as if you owe me a promise, my lord. ”

Then Corinna spoke.

PS: I feel like I'm getting weird about the update time again............ When will it change back to normal............ (To be continued......)
