Summoning the Holy Sword
Chapter 545: That Man (IV)
When Rhodes and Emily returned to Fiat City, it was already time, and there was already chaos. The Edward Chamber of Commerce even temporarily suspended all trading operations, arguing over whether to rescue Rhodes and Emily, and they have not even negotiated a result, and the parties have returned by themselves, since this is the case ... Then naturally there is no need to continue the argument.
After returning to the chamber of commerce, Emily didn't even have time to wash off the dust on her body, and was directly pulled into the conference hall by the businessmen to discuss how to run and organize the chamber of commerce. After all, she was also The daughter of the president of the chamber of commerce has the first right of inheritance. When she was away, other people dared to come out to fight for their own interests, but when she appeared, things began to develop in another direction immediately.
For Emily, this was another start, but for Rhodes, it was over. Now that the Elemental Spirit is awakened, Fiat has no more things he needs to do. No matter whether those people can defeat the Elemental Spirit, the ore production in the Fiat area will be completely shut down. The only thing he needs to do next is Rush back to the front and lead his subordinates to fight the reformist invasion. After losing the connection between Grosso and Fiat, presumably the reformists will jump over the wall and make up for their losses by occupying Pafield. If they do not take advantage of the current strength and strength of their horses, and still have the strength to do the last blow, after the food supply can not keep up, the reformed army who has lost the logistical support and can not maintain the combat power presumably they know very well.
Now, most of the reformers who can be mobilized are loyal to their troops. Once these enemies are completely wiped out, the reformers who have lost their military support are just some bad old men. They should not really think that Sitting around the round table for a few days, I was able to defeat the soldiers without a fight ... Rhode had no doubt about the fierceness of the reformists' counterattack. The last time the reformists in the south were just "conspiracies" "Rebellion" was bloodily suppressed by Lydia. This time they were already publicly rebellious. According to the archangel's usual means of action, if their army was annihilated, Rhodes could almost imagine hundreds of corpses. The sight of being lined up on a street lamp-how spectacular it is for so many people to be hoisted together. Therefore, even just for their own surname, the reformers had to work hard to avoid such a miserable end. Of course, Rhodes doesn't believe they don't have a backhand. The southern seaport's well-connected trading network is not just for transferring wealth, it can also be used for escape. Once the situation is not good, presumably these people who stood before the people screamed for reform, resisted the **, and the overthrowers guys slipped faster than the rabbits. They could take a boat and leave Munn directly from the southern harbor. Principality, and then along the "Golden Coast" route all the way to the country of light, and then continue to eat delicious and spicy there-anyway, once they are under the protection of the light council, Lydia will have no way to hit them again Already.
However, this is also something that Rhodes needs to consider after returning to the Pafield Line of Defense. At present, there are no tasks that he has to personally complete, and Qilian will still occasionally report Li Jie ’s actions to him. Out, Li Jie worked very hard, but with little effect. After all, her ability and mentality can't be compared with Marlene, but Rhode never wanted Li Jie to become the second Marlene, she is her, as if in the game, each player has her own Unique pvp skill concept, some obscene, some mighty, some go forward, some love sneak attacks. Even the same tactics will be interpreted by players in different variants. Rhodes does not want Li Jie to become Marlene, but she will not continue to let her be let alone. The next battle will be more and more severe. He hopes that his subordinates can exert their power as much as possible. For him, but for themselves. If Li Jie did not have such skills, then Rhodes would not force it, but the problem is that the girl obviously has a keen observation and a meticulous way of thinking, but lingers because of a cowardly mentality. Although it is not necessary to see it in this ordinary battle, if Rhode is very clear, if Li Jie is not allowed to overcome this weakness by herself, then this weakness is likely to completely destroy her.
Exactly, according to Qilian's report, the other party should have already begun to act. This is a good opportunity for training. Let me see what Li Jie can do.
Thinking of this, Rhode stopped and pushed open the door of his room. Soon, Rhode saw a figure that surprised him.
"Master, are you okay!"
Celia, who had been waiting anxiously by the window, saw Rhodes step forward and asked in a low voice. But Rhode didn't answer her question, but turned her head curiously, looking at the other side, embracing her arms and leaning against the wall, glaring at her dark-haired girl.
"Look, Celia, Miss Ben said a long time ago, people like him can't die. Only good people in this world will die prematurely ... ... hmm, do you think he looks like that kind of short-lived ghost? Really boring, are you satisfied now? Huh! "
Said here, Serestina snorted heavily, and then she turned and walked towards the door. But the young lady just came to the door, and suddenly Rhode stretched out an arm to stop Serestina. Seeing Rhodes' movement, Serestina's face flashed a rare panic, and she glanced at Celia next to her. Then she resumed her ordinary expression, slightly frowned, raised her Chin looked at Rhodes proudly.
"What, what else do you do? Master?"
"Of course, Serestina."
Facing Serestina's gaze, Rhodes smiled proudly. He had noticed Serestina's slightly stiff body, and her strong, but weird tone, Obviously, the memory of last night is still in the mind of the young lady of the devil, but also right, after a whole night of tossing, if you have not even left this commemoration, then you can only explain yourself as a man It's useless.
Thinking of this, Rhode smiled, then bowed his head proudly, and met Serestina's gaze without fear.
"Tossing in that **** pit for so long, my clothes are dirty and dirty, Serestina, as my maid, shouldn't you change my dress?"
"Aha?!"
When she heard this, Serestina opened her eyes in surprise, and she looked up instinctively, staring hard at Rhodes.
"What a joke, why does Miss Ben want to ..............."
However, Serestina's words did not end, because at this time, Rhodes seemed to stretch out his right hand casually and made a rubbing gesture. After seeing this gesture, Serestina's The voice stopped abruptly, as if blocked by a big invisible hand in his throat. She squinted her eyes, and the blood-red eyes sparkled with the flickering light. The girl bit her teeth tightly and could even hear the sound of "giggle".
Seeing the actions of the two, Celia could not help but look around and curious. She certainly realized that Celestina was inferior to Rhodes, but Celia couldn't understand how How exactly did Rhodes do it. Her elder sister has always been so proud, she never bowed her head in front of anyone. Now why did she make such a response in front of her master? And ... I don't know why, Celia always felt that Serestina at this moment seemed to be afraid of Rhodes?
"Celia."
While Celia was wondering, Rhode's voice interrupted her meditation. The war angel hurriedly turned and looked at her master.
"Yes, master, what's the matter?"
"Can you trouble me to bring me some food and water? I'm starving to death after a long day in the ground."
"Ah, no problem."
Celia was more obedient than her sister. She didn't even doubt Rhode's meaning, so she nodded and left the room. And until the door was closed again, Rhodes regained his gaze. He stared at Celestina in front of him with a playful expression, and when he realized Rhodes's gaze, the devil lady retreated subconsciously Take a step, then clasp your hands around your chest, bit your lower lip, and stare at him like a frightened kitten.
"What do you want to do?"
"What? I've made it clear, Celestina, change clothes — go and get my change of clothes, the black one."
"………………Humph!!"
Maybe she noticed that she had been a little timid in her previous subconscious performance, and Serestina stomped her feet angrily before she turned around and left. Looking at Serestina's figure, Rhodes can't help raising her eyebrows. It's really interesting, it's so funny ......... Although Serestina said nothing, from her actions, Rhodes The answer has been thoroughly obtained. It seems that last night, his plan was very successful.
For Rhodes, changing clothes is actually a very painful thing. This pain has double meanings. One is the clothes themselves. Since Rhodes is playing the big lady of the business family, it is impossible for him to wear ordinary clothes. Clothes, but those luxurious clothes are particularly troublesome to wear. It can be said that for Rhodes, each time he changes clothes is a torment. He not only needs to pack those troublesome clothes, but also to ensure that he does not reveal stuffing— ——Even if there is a woman's face and "slim" figure, it does not mean that Rhodes can be a woman with all his heart. For example, the chest ... and the other aspect is naturally psychological. Although Rhodes behaves like a gentle lady in the eyes of outsiders, this does not mean that he can willingly put on this body with peace of mind. Dress, and in fact, Rhodes felt like he was putting a hot piece of iron on his body when he put it on, and it felt really awkward and awkward.
But now it's not time to care about these small things. For Rhodes, although the task has been completed, although he can't wait to leave. However, Rhodes decided to stay for the time being. After all, things haven't ended satisfactorily until now. He always has to see what will happen in the end.
When Rhodes changed her clothes, Serestina kept a rare silence. She didn't sneer as usual, but stood by indifferently. This is really rare for Serestina. If she changed her words, she might have ridiculed Rhodes long ago, but now, the young lady is gloomy, as if someone owes her a lot Debt-faced, staring at Rhodes. I don't know what she's thinking, but at least this young lady is more obedient than before ......... Well, at least it is.
"?"
And at this moment, Celestina's complexion suddenly changed slightly, her blood-red eyes swept past, and then returned to Rhode's body, and at this time, Rhode also I changed my clothes again-although frankly, he prefers to take a hot bath before this, but at least in the current situation, he has no chance.
"Well."
At the same time, the knock on the door sounded, and Celia walked in with the food, but this time, the angel of war looked a little serious.
"Master, we are in trouble."
"Oh? How?"
Rhode stretched out his slender fingers, tidy up his collar, pressed the bow tie into the lining, and then turned to look at Celia in front of him.
"That's it. Just now I heard someone coming out and saying that I was asking Edward to be responsible for what happened in the underground mine."
"Oh?"
Hearing here, Rhode paused slightly.
"now what?"
"Just now, I saw Miss Emily taking several people to deal with."
"really interesting."
When he heard this, Rhodes narrowed his eyes. Soon, Celia and Celestina saw the familiar smile from his face—not the fake smirk that Ping Yue used to disguise, but It's more chilling, bright and dangerous smile.
"Let's go and see too, Celia."
"Yes, master."
At the same time, in the square outside the Edward Chamber of Commerce, Emily was standing there angrily, her hands clenched into fists, staring at the group of people across. That was a member of the Howard Chamber of Commerce. At this moment they were in front of each other, and raised their hands in anger and yelled, and in front of them, stood a shy old man.
"Mr. Howard, do you say that the Edward Chamber of Commerce is the behind-the-scenes guide to this throbbing mine? You are simply a blood spout! We Edward Chamber of Commerce has never done such a thing, let alone do it, but How about you, the Howard Chamber of Commerce, isn't it the culprit of this mine throbbing? I have seen with your own eyes that you hired mercenaries under the mine ... Did your chamber of commerce send these mercenaries to mine? "
"This is just your side, Miss Emily."
Facing the angry accusations of Emily, the old man was not angry at all.
"On the basis of your allegations, it cannot be said that this matter was committed by our Howard Chamber of Commerce. Moreover, monsters are raging everywhere, and our mining work has been blocked ..."
"It's the same for us. The old immortal asshole. Our Edward Chamber of Commerce mine has been completely closed because of the earthquake and can't continue the mining work at all. Isn't this the **** of yours **** working in secret?"
Someone couldn't hear it at this moment, and immediately jumped out to blame the other person, and when he heard that person's blame, the members of the Howard Chamber of Commerce on the other side also burst out.
"Put your stinky fart, how did we do such a stingy thing, you didn't do it! You united with the guy from the kingdom of light, trying to occupy the entire mine, and want to completely destroy our Howard Chamber of Commerce, you really think we are Do not you know?"
"……………………"
In a roar, Emily frowned and clenched her fists. She felt very irritable, and managed to return to her home. She had not had time to clean up, but was involved in a dispute within the chamber of commerce. His father's men, those businessmen who have longed for the status of the Chamber of Commerce have tried to fight for their own benefits. It is clear that his father is still dead, but for them, his father's death is nothing. Now, I have to stand here again, and argue with the Howard Chamber of Commerce whose fault it is?
Thinking of this, Emily couldn't help but have a urge to yell, tear off her mask, and let out her anger deliberately. She has had enough of this life, and her father has died in the mine disaster. Now these culprits still have faces to blame themselves? They even almost wanted to kill her, didn't they? !! !! Thinking of this, Emily couldn't hold back anymore. She stepped forward in a stride and was about to say something. Suddenly, a soft, gentle sound like a silver bell sounded. The original noise was suddenly suppressed under this voice.
"It's an interesting accusation. You said that the Edward Chamber of Commerce and I awakened the monsters underground and tried to seize the entire mine. Do you have any evidence? Guys?"
