Summoning the Holy Sword

This castle is as magnificent as ever.

Walking in the middle of the wide corridor, looking at the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar scenery on both sides, Rhode sighed secretly in his heart. At this time, it was already evening. After dinner in the guest room, it didn't take long before Lidia sent someone to invite him to "Between Haoyue"-if there was anything that would be stigmatizing to the High Prince A small hobby is that she always likes to give her room some weird names, not to mention that these names do not match their original functions at all. Rhodes still remembers that once a player received a very ordinary task, asking him to send a pair of precious porcelain to the "Black Tea House". As a result, the player had a poor day in the Golden City, and he couldn't find it. Where was the "black tea house"? At last, I had to go to the forum for help, so I was kindly informed that the so-called "black tea house" was just a warehouse on the third floor of the Golden City.

............ I really don't know what the lady Lydia relied on to decide the room.

Fortunately, Haoyue is not a warehouse. It is located on the top floor of the Golden City. It is the most popular place to stay besides the government office in Ping Yue. In the game, most players are also in Here to accept her interviews and rewards-after all, most of the players at that time were just adventurers, and did not meet the specifications of being officially entertained in the government room. So in general they will be met here by His Royal Highness Lydia's informal surname, a private meeting, report to her, and get paid.

Because of this, when Rhodes walked through the bright, quiet and wide hallway and stood in front of the white, gorgeous door, he was even a little embarrassed-as if he had returned to the game. The moment when the task is ready to be paid.

The gate opened slowly.

The warm breath rushed out of it, and it felt instantly relaxed a lot. Rhode reached out, tidy up his clothes, then raised his head and walked into this large, comfortable and luxurious room. Soon, he saw the figure standing by the window, watching the night outside.

It's just that he hasn't seen it in just a few days, but Rhodes feels that figure seems a little more unprecedented than ever. If Lidia in Ping Yue always gives people a dazzling, dazzling sense of gorgeousness, then She is now a bit heavy under the crystal lights and the dark night outside the window. It feels like the only little beacon that is persisting in the dark and boundless ocean.

"Welcome you, Sir Rhodes."

While Rhode looked at the girl in front of her in doubt, Lidia turned and smiled. Behind her, all the flashes of light flashed along with the girl's movement, and outlined the outline of the light wing. Then suddenly disappeared again in the air. And just as Lydia turned around, the heavyness that had given Rod a bit of a strange feeling also melted like Chunxue, appearing in front of him at this moment, still the brilliant and full of confidence in Ping Yue. Archangel.

"From afar, you must be very tired. Please sit down. I have prepared good blueberry cake and black tea. I believe you will like it."

"Thank Your Highness for your kindness."

Hearing Lydia's words, Rhode said nothing. He just nodded slightly, and then sat on the soft and comfortable sofa under Lydia's gesture. Soon, a maid came forward. Respectfully served Rhodes with cut cakes and black tea, then turned away. But Rhodes didn't lift the tea cup immediately. Instead, his attention was drawn to another matter.

"Jazz?"

"Yes."

After hearing Rhode's questioning question, Lydia smiled and sat opposite him. The archangel was dressed as usual, and the tight-fitting dress made of pure white high-quality fabric was perfectly wrapped in the girl. On the slender and slender body, under the support of the tulle, the archangel's white and delicate skin can be seen faintly, full of holiness, self-confidence and elegance and arrogance-and I do n’t know what to say Is it a good look or an attractive look?

"It's a natural reward for a hero who can destroy the demon and stop the chaos in the Solagang Mountains, right?"

Speaking of this, Lydia raised her eyebrows playfully and said with a hint of dissatisfaction.

"To be honest, if it weren't for a lot of people who would be unhappy, I was going to grant you the earl ......... But unfortunately, it is not easy to make everyone happy."

Hearing this, Rhode chose wisely. In fact, he didn't realize that Lydia would be so easy to give himself a title-this is to be changed in the game, then it is a big surprise for the player, but at the moment In a real world, Rhodes quickly understood the meaning of the other party. Obviously, this was not just about merit rewards. Rhodes did not believe that Lydia, as the Archangel, knew nothing about the Duke of Demons. , And herself and her subordinates can completely send this unlucky demon duke back to its hometown. Faced with such power, if Lydia no longer pays attention, then one of her three archangels is really Sit white.

"I haven't seen you in such a long time, Luo Deqing is still so good ......... I wonder how Christie is?"

"Thank you for your interest, Her Royal Highness, Christie's words, life is pretty good in the fortress, although her body has not completely improved, but ... ... people always want to live."

Rhodes did not say that Christie's body is getting better and such a fake speech, because he is very clear that Lydia does not like such a speech, which is also based on the aesthetic view of Her Royal Highness. She appreciates the pure Sincere beauty, and the least praise for that kind of false praise and politeness. Not to mention that Lydia has experienced Christie's situation before herself, and talking nonsense with her eyes open in front of her is definitely not a good choice. Sure enough, Lydia nodded at Rhode's unceremonious answer.

"Yes, Luo Deqing, the beauty of life lies in their desire to survive. No matter where they are or what kind of suffering they encounter, they will strive to survive ... I believe Christie can overcome these difficulties, believe me . "Speaking here, I don't know why, Lidia glanced at Rhodes with a beautiful pair of eyes, but soon, a smile appeared again.

"I can assure you that this is my intuition, Mr. Rhode, there must be no problem with Christie."

"Thank Your Highness."

Hearing Lydia's words, Rhodes also wondered. In his impression, this grandfather is not the kind of person who can run the train with his mouth. Any way? Now suddenly intuition ......... But Rhodes didn't think much about it, after all, the archangel was just a teenager, and Ping Yue was the same virtue, and the girl's heart surname suddenly appeared. The surname may not be absent. So Rhodes only perfuncated a few words about Lydia's speech, and soon returned to the subject.

"So, Your Highness, about this incident at the Solagang Mountain Territory ..."

"I've learned the whole story from your correspondence, Luo Deqing."

Speaking of which, for the first time, Lydia's face showed a bit of bitterness.

"Sonia's fall is heartbreaking, and in fact, I don't know anything about it."

Speaking of this, Lydia sighed a long time, and then she began to talk to Rhode about all this.

In Lydia's narrative, Rhodes now fully understands what the so-called Overseer is-in ancient times, the position of the Solagang Mountain Territory has increased a fierce war. For some reason, the passage with the bottomless abyss and the plane of the plane was opened, and the demon duke led its men to invade the continent like locusts. In the face of these demonic threats, the Dragon of the Light and the Dragon of the Night defeated it and sealed it in the gap of the Dragon Soul. But that is a long time ago. With hundreds of thousands of years, the flesh and blood, the battlefield of fierce fighting has become a rare and stable place-that is, the Solagang Mountains. After that, the Solagang Mountains were discovered again by the dwarves, and then they have the current Solagang Mountain Territory. As recorded in history, after the Solagang Mountain Territory was completely established, in order to compete for the resources there, the kingdom of light and the kingdom of night also launched a war.

That is, at the end of the war, the two sides accidentally found the seal of the demon duke, and this seal began to loosen because of the war between the kingdom of light and the kingdom of night. As the successor of Dragon Spirit, both the Dragon Spirit of Light and the Dragon Spirit of Night know how powerful the Duke of Demons is. If you fight this way again, I'm afraid that the Solagang Mountain Territory did not get it, but instead caused a big trouble, then it was really a loss of his wife and a troop.

It is precisely in this consideration that the kingdom of light and the kingdom of night finally stopped the war and chose to retreat. The reason why they prevented the army from entering the Solagang Mountain Territory, on the one hand, in addition to the need for political negotiations and transactions, was also to avoid causing more conflicts and affecting the composition of the seal. That is, after that, in order to monitor the seal at all times, the two sides chose the Principality of Munn.

"Sonia was the last guardian of the seal. When my mother was alive, she was responsible for guarding the seal. However, with the report from the Solagang Mountains every year, my heart also The anxiety gradually grew ......... The power of chaos is the bottomless abyss, and when you look at the abyss, the abyss is watching you. I do n’t know what Sonia encountered when guarding the Duke ’s seal, but from her In her reply, it can be seen that she is becoming confused, and the power of chaos seems to be affecting her. As my sensitive identity, I cannot enter the Solagang Mountain Territory, so I can only choose to use words to suppress her chaos. However, it seems that all this has not had much effect. She has been completely conquered and attracted by the power of chaos, and has become a chaotic believer. As for the problems surrounding the Soragang Mountain Territory, I also I was also aware that I had planned to transfer her back before then, but I didn't expect that ... ……………… ”

Lydia didn't say anything, but at this moment, Rod's deep confusion had gradually resolved.

Throughout the Solagang Mountain Territory incident, Rhodes was most puzzled as to why the Duke of Demon had this event that should not have happened at all. But now, according to Lydia's complaint, he finally solved the mystery in his heart-the reason is still in the old parliamentary president he saved.

In the history of the game, the Solagang Mountain Territory announced that it had not been obstructed to join the Dragon Kingdom of the Night, which shows that the old parliament president must be dead, and without the power of stopping, those members can pass a resolution, and Join the Dark Dragon Kingdom. And according to the news that Rhodes heard when escorting the old parliamentary leader, the Soragang mountain territories chose the Dragon Kingdom of the Night not only because of the oppression of the Kingdom of Light. Instead, they used the Dragon Kingdom of the Night as a shield Come to use it, in order to find a good thigh when the demon duke wakes up when the seal is lifted. Later history also showed that their choice was correct. The Duke of Demons finally woke up, which also forced the Dark Dragon who had already been under pressure to fight the Principality of Muen. He had to leave the front line to clear up the bad luck.

And this is the truth in the game world that Rod experienced.

But here, history has changed. Rhodes saved the old parliamentarian, and the old parliamentarian obviously chose another method. He did not let the seal be slowly lifted like other people. Instead, he tried to use his own The strength re-enforces the seal, which obviously stimulates the monitor who has become a slave to chaos. In the end, in the face of the upcoming threat, she chooses to awaken the Duke of Demons in advance ... It seems that her actions bring The change is really not small.

Thinking of this, Rhode smiled helplessly in his heart, but unfortunately, why all these details have changed?

Now there is no way to think about these trivial matters, so Rhodes is easy to leave them behind-the next topic is the subject.

"So, Your Highness, please forgive me ...... this hearing ..."

"This is what I want to explain to you now, Luo Deqing."

When mentioning this topic, Lydia's face converged with a smile for the first time.

"According to you, there are not many people who know the truth this time at the Soragang Mountain Territory Incident, but now, the Council of Light has sent envoys, and ... they seem to know the matter Truth. Hopefully we can take responsibility for the lax monitoring of the Solagang Mountain Territory Seal. "

This so-called responsibility is to let Lydia step down? What a great abacus.

"Do you know their specific description of the incident?"

Hearing this, Rhode asked. Depending on who you are, the incident itself will change. It is only Rhodes, Dee, and his death knight, Corinna, and the Silver Robes of the Order Alliance that will be seen by the watchers. Corinna alone, Dee realized that things were not good enough before the arrival of Bubbles and Canary, and the old Master of Silver Robe woke up later. Therefore, everyone's understanding of the ending is completely different.

And who among them will tell the truth of the Light Council is really difficult to determine.

Although it was said that everyone faced the army of demons at that time, they all escaped the attack under the attack of the demon duke, but the difference in position and identity had determined that they could not give up their responsibilities because of the same suffering.

"I don't know the details."

Lydia shook her head slightly.

"But this time, you can tell from the Council of Light that you are required to attend the hearing. They may already know ......... After all, not many people know about you."

It turns out that, it seems that there is only contingency.

Thinking of this, Rhode looked up and stared at the girl in front of her.

"Please be assured, Your Highness, I already have a plan."

The speed of the Council of Light ambassadors is not slow. Just on the day after Rhodes arrived in the Golden City, they have asked Lydia to hold a hearing—and along with the request, there was a strong wording. Letter accusing Rhodes of causing damage to the Council of Light council, they demanded that Moun surrender Rhodes, and apologize and compensate for the losses caused by the mission. Of course, this letter Lydia did not even tear down When it opened, it was directly thrown into the nearby stove and burned out.

"It's ugly, the filthy rat squeaks and wants sympathy-but I won't do as they wish."

Watching the letter in the flame burn to ashes, Lydia said lightly, and at the same time she reached out, took up the handkerchief, and wiped her hand, as if what she had just received was not a letter, but Something filthy. Looking at the childish act of Grand Duke Lydia, Amund opened his mouth, but the words were finally reduced to one breath.

"... Your Highness, are you ready?"

"I have never been interested in a comedy that has already decided on a good ending."

With a gentle, elegant and proud smile, Lydia turned her head and looked at Amund.

"But this time, I have a rare expectation. Teacher, what kind of surprise do you think Sir Rhodes will bring us?"

"Excuse me, the old minister has already passed the age of expecting surprises. As long as this hearing is not troublesome, the old minister will thank God."

What Amund could say was completely heartfelt. One Lydia has made him a headache with wantonly behavior, and now another Rhode has appeared, and Lydia has actually agreed to let him play, even on such a solemn occasion with the Council of Light Envoy ------ The old mage felt that his stomach was beginning to hurt.

"Are you wrong? Teacher Amond, regardless of age, people always have longing and anticipation for the unknown. It is not a day or two thing for the Council of Light to want to start with me, this funny comedy It's almost time to end it by now. "Speaking of which, Lydia raised her brow, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

"I hope that the end of this time will not disappoint me."

With the sound of a heavy horn, Rhode strode into the luxurious palace.

At this moment, the sides of the circular palace were already full of people. The nobles stood by the railings on the second floor and looked at the young men who came in under the guidance of the guards, looking different. As a nobleman who has been in the Golden City for many years, rumors spread among them at a speed comparable to the speed of light. Until now, no one knows the role of this young man and his current identity in the time of Solagang Mountain Territory — -It is not unreasonable that Lydia will reward this young man with a title. It is reasonable to consider his attack and Lidia ’s generous family name.

But this reward is not just that simple. From this time of Lydia's reward, the nobles have thoroughly understood what choice the royal family made.

If Lydia only gives Rhodes a certain amount of money or other rewards, it means that she will give up the young man and give him to the Council of Light to deal with. But now, Lydia has given him the title of knighthood. Although it is only the smallest baron, the nobles are very clear. This means that Rhodes has become a part of the political system of the Duchy of Muen. And then the ordinary mercenary was so simple before-although he may have a rich heritage and family background, but if there is no open position, there is no help.

But now that he has a formal title, if the Principality of Moon is still in the presence of so many aristocrats, and he will be handed over to the House of Light by the public, it will be as if Litia took her own face.

Perhaps because of knowing this time, Mr. Danny, who was standing in the middle of the hall at this moment, looked very irony. He was under the protection of Tres and several other attendants, and stared at the dark-haired young man leisurely. Walked into the hall, and just then, a clear voice came from the front of the hall.

"Well, now in the hall of sacred glory, on behalf of the Principality of Munn, I witness this hearing ......... What do you think? Councillor Danny?"

"No, Her Royal Highness."

Despite his complexion, Danny was still calm at the moment, he nodded to Lydia first, and then spoke.

"This time, our Parliament of Light came to investigate the issue of the removal of the seal caused by the negligence of your Principality in the incident of the Solagang Mountain Territory ... ... the demons reappeared from the seal, the Principality of Muen It has not been able to implement the resolution well and protect the seal. Therefore, our light council believes that your principality needs to bear the necessary responsibilities for this, to the dragon of light, to the council of light, and to those who have suffered terrible disasters in the Solagang Mountains The public explained ... I don't know what Her Royal Highness thinks about this? "

"I don't have any opinion."

Facing the accusations of the Council of Light, the smile on the girl's face did not change at all.

"Although the Principality of Munn does serve His Majesty the Dragon of Light, but we will not make judgments based only on the words of some people. So, Danny, you must have evidence to prove this?"

"That's for sure!"

Upon hearing Lydia's answer, the Fat Member nodded strongly, and even the fat on his cheeks shook with it. Then, he turned away and pointed his fingers at Rhodes.

"We have witnesses who escaped from that disaster to prove that it was this man who caused the crisis of the Solagang seal to be lifted!"

As soon as this remark was made, everyone immediately burst into an uproar.
