Summoning the Holy Sword

Facing Rhode's inquiries, John did not answer immediately. Instead, he carefully looked at Rhode in front of him, his face clearly showing a trusting expression.

"It's something between me and the Rockfield family, Mr. Elante, I don't think you need to get involved, and ... I can't find a reason why you would get involved."

This is also true.

For John's questioning, Rhodes also knew very well that he would not make such a decision if he did not know the value of the man in front of him. Although the Rockfield family had declined in the north, it was a traditional nobleman after all. The difference between the traditional aristocracy and the emerging aristocracy is that the traditional aristocracy does not represent a family, but a class's interests. Any offensive against a traditional aristocracy will be seen as a provocation against the entire class. This is related to the dignity of a ruling class, and if Rhodes acted rashly, he would likely become an unwelcome figure within the royal party. So it is reasonable for John to have such a question. If Rhodes is an emerging aristocracy in the south, it is not surprising that he would make such a request. The emerging aristocracy has always expected to overthrow the rule of the traditional aristocracy and replace it, so they must be happy. But Rhodes is different. He is always a member of the King ’s Party in the north. Although the Rockfield family is not a famous and powerful family in the north, it is also true for Rhodes. No doubt suicide.

And now everyone in the south knows that Rhodes is close to the Xenia family. The well-known magic genius of the Xenia family is even in Rhodes' mercenary guild. Although nobles to civilians, no one Understand why a heir to the first family of the Duchy of Munn would descend to a mercenary guild (formerly the mercenary regiment), but you can also see the current relationship between Rhodes and the Shania family. The Xenia family is the backbone of the traditional aristocracy. You are so close to the Xenia family and you say that you want to overturn Rockfield. It is a **** to let the John Society believe it.

Although John ’s questioning was reasonable, Rod could n’t explain to him. He could n’t tell John ’s own political position, and although Rhodes would know what happened on the continent, now he ca n’t be like a magic stick. Tell John the same.

But if you just want to keep Rod silent for that reason, it's a little worse.

"The reason why I am willing to help you is simple, because I appreciate your strength."

"My strength?"

Hearing here, John's complexion finally eased a bit.

"Yes, Mr. John, you have a very good ability ...... I don't just refer to you, but also your talent for commanding and fighting, so I hope you can become my subordinate."

"This is really a joke, Mr. Elante, even if I have a set on the march, you can't give your mercenary guild to me. IMHO, if you just make me happy, also Please stop here. Although I am a prisoner now, I have dignity. "

"Of course I understand that, Mr. John, I am not bored to find your happiness. You see that there are so many beautiful girls around me waiting for me, and I will not be bored at such a late time when I am bored Come and have fun with a man. "

Speaking of which, Rhode joked. This also made John smile involuntarily. Indeed, Rhodes did not tell him that he valued him so much that he needed him, but now John also thinks that this man is really interesting, um, not only Refers to his appearance.

Before seeing Rhodes, John had no good impression of this man. Since the Midsummer Festival, Rhodes' reputation in the south can be said to be extremely bad, almost the level of everyone yelling at mice crossing the street. As a member of the Southern Army, John didn't listen to his colleagues talk about this cruel devil. He was insidious, cunning, fierce, cruel, brutal, vulgar and shameless, and all the negative words in this world were right on him. Not to mention that he also killed the hero and proud Luosen of Southern Harbour in that cruel way, and the wings of freedom were also destroyed in his hands. This even more impressive Rhodes is a royal running dog. Among the rumors among civilians, Rhodes is portrayed as a scorpion with a heart and a sinister scum.

John also had a certain concern for Rhodes. Both sides were about the same age. Rhodes was even younger than him, but he had achieved such a high level. This naturally attracted John's attention, but John had doubts about the rumors in the world. If Rhodes was as insidious and cunning as the people said, it would be impossible for these people to see through his disguise. A truly insidious, cunning, shameless and shameless person will not let so many people see it, otherwise his acting skills will be too bad-even civilians can see what kind of person you are. Not a dead end? How could he have received such high praise from His Royal Highness Lydia and the Royal Party?

And now it does look so.

"If you don't want to join the guild and be my subordinate, then I can give you another way."

Then, Rhodes folded his hands and looked at John with confidence and pride.

"How about, Mr. John, are you interested in becoming my family member?"

"My courtier?"

Hearing Rhode's words, John slightly hesitated, and then he remembered that the man in front of him was not just as simple as the president of a mercenary guild, he was also a officially blocked jazz! !!

An officially recognized nobleman!

Thinking of this, John was finally silent, as a mercenary, he naturally did not want this choice. But if you want to be a nobleman, that's totally different. This is a very good choice for many soldiers. Rhodes knew that John could become a prince of the Principality of Moon in the future, but it was impossible for him to know it. John is now just the next Cavalry Commander in the Southern Army who looks promising. But he did not know what it would look like afterwards. It can even be said that if General Dade did not take care of himself like his own father, I am afraid that he is still a member of many ordinary soldiers so far.

Now that General Dade has been arrested, even if he flees to the Southern Army, he has no place to hide, and I am afraid he will be locked up, but if he becomes Rhode's family member, his mother's enemies ... "Mr. John, why not?"

Just as John frowned, Rhodes spoke again.

"I can understand your worries and anxieties, so I have a proposal that for two years, you will be my minister for two years, and within these two years, I will find an opportunity to fulfill my promise and avenge you. If Two years later, I still ca n’t fulfill my promise, so you can leave freely, and I will never stop it. But I need to remind you that it is up to me to decide when to take revenge. You should understand what I mean. "

At the suggestion of Rhodes, John could not help but hesitated, but he had to admit that this was indeed a solution, but ... two years? After two years, will he really let himself go?

"The answer to this question lies with you, Mr. John. The degree of trust we have in each other, I believe that you will not be indifferent, and whether you believe my commitment lies in yourself."

Speaking of which, Rhodes embraced his arms. Although his expression was still indifferent, but deep inside he was a little nervous. After all, there is no basis for commitment and cooperation between the two parties. John is worried that he will turn his face and not confess his account. Why is Rhodes worried that the man in front will pretend to keep the promise and then run away in a blink of an eye, or at an inappropriate time? Proactively stir up the struggle between yourself and the Rockfield family in order to achieve his purpose?

These are not all delusions born out of nothing. In the game, Rhodes has seen many such despicable and shameless things. The lower limit of the player is infinitely negative, and everything is done if he is shameless. Especially large guilds like Xingguang have to recruit a lot of fresh blood every day. Some of these players are eager to hug their thighs, others are looking to use starlight to achieve their goals, and some are simply sent by hostile guilds to try to split. There are also people who specifically focus on those high-level female players, trying to engage in one-night stand, online dating, and naked chat to make them lose their reputation. Both Little Bubble Gum and Canary have encountered similar things. This also shows from another aspect that the star tree is so arrogant that it is easy to be attacked.

In the history of the game, John ’s character is worthy of reassurance in the general direction, but seeing that he first defeated Rockfield to avenge before fighting for the country, it shows that in John ’s mind, the desire for revenge is huge and strong And even desperate. If so, can he manage him well?

Rhodes thinks twice and thinks it's worth a try. After all, if he succeeds, he will have one more player. Many of Rhodes' men are good at circuitous combat. Only Annie is a hard-liner who dares to attack directly, but she is not good at leading large troops, and prefers to fight alone. However, in the battle against the undead army, it is not effective to rely on this kind of tricks. It is necessary to bump it up and condense your team into a hard sledgehammer to smash it down. Creatures do great damage.

John's potential threat is uncertain, and the threat of undead is affirmative. After comparing the two, Rhodes finally decided to give it a try. Anyway, if there is any problem, it is not too late to solve it by himself.

Facing Rhode's words, John was silent for a long time, and it was clear that he had the same concerns as Rhode. And John was probably more worried than Rhodes. After all, in Rhodes' memory, John's future is still a good foundation. But in John's eyes, Rhodes has always been a bad reputation. Although it seems to be mostly rumors now, but there is no wind and waves, such a person with bad evaluation ... Can he really trust him?

"I have two conditions, Mr. Elante."

In the end, John made up his mind and looked up.

"First, I want you to release my brothers. Second, I want you to let General Dade leave safely."

"I can agree to the first point, but the second point is impossible. Both you and I know the value of General Dade. I can only guarantee the safety of General Dade's life, but it is impossible to let him leave."

Facing John's proposal, Rhodes replied very resolutely and decisively. After getting Rhode's answer, instead of jumping wildly, John showed a smile.

"So, from now on, I will be your family member, sir."

John then spoke.
