Summoning the Holy Sword

The Congress of Light grabbed the Highlands and Rhodes had long guessed it. Maybe for them, Highland City was just a barren city in the border area, but now they are really stupid to be hopeless if they still give up here. However, compared with the port of Yinfan, the biggest problem of Highland City is that it borders the territory of the country of light, and the reason why Yinfan Port promised to submit to Rhodes so quickly is that they have a big reason It is not bordered by the kingdom of light itself. There is still the Strait of Eternal Hope between the two, but in turn, after the order of the chaotic land is stable, the port of Yinfan actually borders the territory of the void. In the state, who chooses to back it is definitely not a question worthy of consideration for the port of Yinfan. They will not risk being attacked by Rhodes and choose to rely on the country of light far from the other side of the strait, not to mention that although the navy of the country of light is powerful, it is beyond its reach, plus the port of Silver Sails I did n’t receive the oppression and exploitation of the Kingdom of Light. I was naturally willing to find a new backer, especially after Rhodes was willing to give them a certain degree of autonomy. The port of Yinfan decisively left the Kingdom of Light behind. , Then came baton to hug the thigh.

However, compared with the port of Yinfan, the environment of Highland City is more responsible. Although it is the same as the port of Yinfan, it is oppressed and exploited by the country of light, but the absolute fear also generates absolute obedience, plus they Without the excellent location of Yinfan Port, it is not afraid of the trouble of the country of light to find them, so Highland City is obviously more difficult in this regard.

But for Rhodes, the Highland City must be won. Otherwise, this is almost equivalent to letting the kingdom of light choke one of his throats, and as Marin said, he can never let any of it go. A region that chooses to read within the shelter of its own Dragon Soul, otherwise, its rule will be severely provoked and shaken. This is something that Rhodes can't tolerate at the moment. In the face of the post-war war, what he needs first is absolute internal stability. If there is still turmoil in this period of development, then it will not only extend his time to strengthen his strength, And maybe you will lose your most precious opportunity. But if the Kingdom of Light is to control the Highland City, then they have an entrance to and from the Netherland. Rhodes can be sure that those guys will definitely use this to make the smoky air inside his territory-this is Luo Germany is absolutely reluctant to see.

That's why he came to the Highland City again as "Miranda Salem", in order to see with his own eyes what kind of penetration of the Kingdom of Light has reached here.

However, when Rhodes came here, he discovered that in addition to the five major consortiums that originally controlled the Highland City, all of the small and medium chambers of commerce in the country came here. It seems that the five major consortia are not fools. They also know the current highland The situation in the city is not good, so let these pawns simply give them a head start. If there is a risk, they will naturally be borne by the families of these small and medium-sized chambers of commerce, and if there is an interest, they will naturally eat big heads. With the power of the five consortia behind the Council of Light, it is not difficult to do this.

What makes Rhodes more interesting is that the consortium that currently controls the Highland City still has a little bit of origin with itself-the Highland City produces the most minerals, so it controls most of the minerals in the country of light Naturally, the Alanic family will not let go of this place. Today, it has almost become the private territory of the Alanic family. In the entire highland city, the private soldiers of the Alanic family occupy seven out of ten. Eighth, they manage almost every aspect of the people in the Highland City. For the Elanic family, it is not a big deal to control a place like the Highland City, but in turn, this is also an obstacle to Rhodes' plan. If you want to take a shot, then you have to compete with the five major consortia. From this point of view, the light council is not stupid. Knowing that you are not strong enough, you simply push everything to the five major consortia. The merchants are all It ’s not good for the early animals, and they naturally understand that if the Highland City can be solved, then the rich treasures in the surrounding area are completely theirs. The ......... Precisely because of this, the five consortia in this case can be described as very active. In a way, they are more difficult to deal with than the Council of Light.

After all, have n’t you seen a shady worse than 傀儡 boss?

Rhodes is very clear. On the surface, there is not much high-end force in the Light Council itself. Some are basically scourged by himself. One was slumped back to his original shape, and the other was directly stung to half body and became an idiot , But this is just the strength of the Council of Light. But in fact, the power of the five major consortiums is much stronger than this. According to player surveys, the five families are more or less related to the Dark Brotherhood and the Hell Devil. Among the cores of the Dude family, Hiding a Helllord level existence. Sonia also told Rhodes that in her Loktos family, there were also two veteran characters of the Dark Brotherhood accompanying the host, and their strength has reached the legendary intermediate level, and it should not be underestimated. peep. And the Pearth family, who controls the caster, even intermarries privately with the succubus and fallen angels to gain the magical mastery of those who are not human races. As for the children born, they naturally become the elite of the Peart family. There are also rumors that the Peart family and the succubus queen have an unclear relationship. In addition, as a business leader, the Manny family is related to the Chaos Order. Even the patriarchs of the Manny family are the leaders of the "Chaos of Light" knights in the Order.

The Elanic family is no exception. Among the powers they possess, they even include heart-stealers from different planes ...

I have to admit that the five consortia are deeply buried in their true strength. Many players have only heard the rumors, but have never witnessed them firsthand. It wasn't until Rhodes led Starlight to move Casablanca to the ground, and faced up with the five major consortia. It was discovered that their strength was not comparable to those of the collapsed Lightning [***] team. It can even be said that the five major consortia are simply the five of the nations within the kingdom of light. Whether military or political, they almost read outside the parliament of light and will not be affected. Instead, they can also do the reverse. Influence on the Council of Light.

However, it is quite ironic that even the Dragon of Light cannot think of it. Under the shelter of its own Dragon Soul, there is such darkness and evil hidden.

Rhodes is not surprised by this, because in the land of light, many cultists and dark forces lurk in the country of light. Since the war angels are mostly in Moen, once they are discovered by those angels, these forces are uprooted. In addition, in the kingdom of light, because of the distrust of angels against the human race, angels can hardly move here, and conversely, demons and demons and cultists have become more popular. The rejection of aliens by the Kingdom of Light for so many years, in addition to the ulterior motives of the Council of Light itself, these guys have also contributed a lot to the back.

It's just ... Rhodes didn't expect to meet these guys so quickly.

"Hello, Miss Miranda, welcome to Highland City. I didn't expect that the Salem Chamber of Commerce would be interested in it?"

Sitting in front of Rhodes, the young man in luxurious clothes stared at Rhodes with a smile, and attentively poured a cup of tea for him. He was the head of the Alanick family in the Highlands, Shanlied Grant Alanick. However, relative to this identity, Rhodes is more familiar with his other identity-the vice chairman of the Holy Serpent Society, the devouring snake Grant.

The business of the Elanic family is doing a good job. There is no delay in engaging in cults while engaging in minerals. The Holy Snake Society is the leading human trafficker group in the Land of Light. They are best at catching non-humans or some poor people on the border in the border areas, and then selling them as slaves. But now it seems that the Alannick family can develop so many mines, and I am afraid that they will benefit a lot from slaves.

While defamating in his heart, Rhode glanced at the black tea that the other party put in front of himself. With his keen sense of smell, he could smell the aroma of this black tea mixed with a special flavor that was enough to relax him. This kind of spice is harmless in itself, but if used in combination, it can be used in the hands of connoisseurs to provide psychological hints-this group of guys really do not change their dead names.

"The recent business is not very good. We are planning to develop our own business. After all, there are so many troubles in the country now, and there are many things that are not as convenient as before. So I came here to see if I could Help the Seren Chamber of Commerce find new business opportunities. After all ... "

Speaking of which, Rhode glanced at the starry sky out of the window, and when he realized his eyes, Shan Lide also laughed.

"Yes, Miss Miranda, now the Highland City is not as good as it used to be. Right now, there are endless business opportunities, and I have received information from the family. The council of light will soon develop large-scale development here. If you take advantage of this opportunity to develop, then you will definitely get a lot of gains. But I don't know, the Salem Chamber of Commerce came this time ... What are you going to work on? "

"No decision has been made yet. After all, I'm here just to conduct an investigation. The current highland city is no better than the past. Our small business is ultimately risky, isn't it?"

In the face of Shan Lide's inquiry, Rhodes calmly took the topic away, not to mention that he is not a real businessman, and even if he is a real businessman, he will never reveal himself in front of such a powerful competitor. He revealed his card, and Shan Lide didn't say much, just smiled diligently.

"Miss Miranda is really cautious. This is also true. Although the businessman is pursuing opportunities, it is also my way to win in the stable. So, during this time, I will send someone to take Miss Miranda around in the highlands. Although this place is located on the border, the law and order is still very good. There will be no problems under the management of our Alanike Consortium. If there is any need, you can always ask me, as long as I can do it. I must do it. I didn't expect that your chamber of commerce would even have a beautiful lady like you, which really surprised me ... "

"Please, then, Mr. Sanlid."

Hearing Shan Lide's words, Rhode answered with a smile. Seeing Rhode's smile, Shan Lide in front of him suddenly paused for a long while, and then he reacted and coughed awkwardly.

"That ... Miss Miranda, you're a guest from afar. You must have been tired after arriving in the Highlands. Would you like me to prepare a room for the two ..."

"I don't bother you, Mr. Shan Lide, I have already booked a room before I came here. Next we plan to walk around the Highland City. When I came here, I was worried that it might be a little dangerous here. , But now it looks like it's really safe, as Mr. Shan Lide said, so I can rest assured. "

Having said that, Rhode glanced to stand next to himself. At this moment, Angeline, who was cleverly lowering her head, was now Rhode's exclusive maid. She wore a black and white maid outfit, white stockings and black leather shoes, with a white maid headgear. At this moment in the body of the blood-sucking royal family, there was no trace of the original majesty and pride, but it was like a maid who faithfully followed the servant's side. I have to say that these blood-sucking species are probably full of natural talent for acting. Hearing Rhode's words at this moment, Angeline also took a step forward, first nodded to Shan Lide cleverly, then lowered his body and said softly in Rhode's ear.

"Miss ... it's almost time ........."

"I see, Angeline."

Hearing Angeline's answer, Rhode nodded, then he stood up and looked at the man with a sorry smile.

"Well, that's it for today, Mr. Shan Lide. The conversation with you was very pleasant. I hope we can have more in-depth communication later."

"Well, of course. I am also very happy, Miss Miranda."

Although it was said so by mouth, looking at the cup of black tea that Rhodes hadn't even touched, Shan Lide was obviously a little unhappy and depressed, but this emotion just flickered in his eyes and then disappeared. A gentle smile reappeared on Shan Lide's handsome face.

"Then, I hope you can have a pleasant evening, and at the same time please take me to convey to the Chamber of Commerce the esteem of the Elanic family."

"I will, Mr. Shan Lide."

Upon hearing Shan Lide's answer, Rhode smiled slightly, then he bent down, saluted the other party gracefully, then turned and left the room.

"……………Humph."

It wasn't until after Rhodes left and looked at the door that was re-closed. The expression on Shan Lide's face suddenly changed. He had a gentle smile and a polite face. At this moment, he had a degree of greed and unprecedented ferocious.

"I didn't expect to see such a good product here. It would be a shame if I let it go ...... but it looks like the woman is smart ...... forget it, I have a way."

While talking to himself, Shan Lide picked up the tea cup that Rod had just placed on the table, stuck out his tongue, and gently licked the handle, as if he was tasting the white and delicate fingers of the other party. For Shan Lide, this was really a pleasant surprise. He didn't expect that there would be a woman coming here to investigate alone. As for the Salem Chamber of Commerce ........., there are several large and small chambers of commerce in China. Baijia, I have never heard of any Salem Chamber of Commerce, but this is also good. The quality of that woman and that little maid next to her are very good. If I can get it ... I will definitely make myself boring here. Time has become quite interesting.

Thinking of this, a greedy and greedy smile appeared on Shan Lide's face, then he put down the tea cup and slammed his finger gently. Soon, two weird figures appeared silently beside him.

"Go and stare at that woman and give me a full report of her whereabouts."

After listening to Shan Lide's order, the two figures shook, and then disappeared into the darkness silently.

"Master, why didn't you let me control that human just now?"

As Rhode walked out of the gate of the manor, Angeline stared at Rhode curiously, inquiring softly. To be honest, when seeing Rhodes's women's dress at first glance, the vampire royal family stood on the spot and couldn't believe her eyes at all. This was not because she was shocked by Rhodes's women's dress. On the contrary, until At this time, An Jie Linte only found out that the Majesty Dragon was actually not a woman ...

Fortunately, Angeline's habit of saving her life saved her life, otherwise if Rhodes knew her thoughts, I am afraid that the blood-sucking royal family would not live with Rhodes ...

Originally, Little Bubble Gum and Canary were intended to follow. Although Highland City resolutely opposed its own ownership and Netherland, Rhode's system obviously did not care about their statement and directly assigned Highland City to Rhode's sphere of influence. In this way, canaries and little bubble gum can naturally come here to visit. However, considering that both of them can be regarded as the top blacklist in the light country, Rhodes finally rejected their request. After all, I can hide most people with only a little change, but I can dress as a man, but Little Bubble Gum and Canary cannot dress as a man. Besides, with the name of Little Bubble Gum, she came here. Disobedience is a big shot. With the power of little bubble gum, it is not impossible to directly demolish the Highland City. Rhodes is not so stupid as to bring her into trouble-well, at least not now.

"That guy is not an ordinary human. I think you feel it too. His breath is very weird. In order to avoid unnecessary disputes, don't shoot for now."

When Rhode was planning to meet with the actual person in charge here, let Angeline completely control him, and then he could leisurely analyze the situation in the entire Highland City, but Rhode did not expect to be in charge of this place. The deputy chairman of the Holy Snake Society, that guy is not an ordinary role. Of course, with his current strength, it is not a minute for Rhodes to be killed, but for Rhodes, he does not intend to use this method. Recover Highland City. It's too risky and it's not worth it.

"I have a better way."

Thinking of this, Rhodes's mouth slightly tilted, and a little smile appeared. (To be continued.)
