Chapter 87 Surprising conclusion

When the sun rises from the horizon again, the battle is already over.

Judging from the results of the battle, this is a rare victory in the territory of the Kingdom of Light. The record of annihilation of the entire Immortal Legion has only been this time since the invasion of the Kingdom of Night. It seems to be very powerful. According to the truth, the Council of Light should have been promoting its achievements to inspire people. But the fact is not the case. After the battle, the angry military headquarters directly handed a complaint to the Council of Light, suing Rhodes for ordering the soldiers to launch an inhumane attack on them in the rear!

In fact, it is no wonder that the Light Division was so angry. Although Andre saw Rhode's plan, there were still some idiots who didn't see what Rhode wanted to do. They just felt that they could not stop it, so they simply wanted to take the opportunity to retreat and escape. However, they had just retreated from the city wall and were intercepted by the supervisory team on the southern front, requiring them to return to the battlefield to fight. The front-line army that had finally escaped was naturally impossible to be obedient. So soon, they encountered the attack of the opponent. The soldiers who were trapped in the army were naturally not the right ones to the supervisory team, but were completely annihilated in just a moment. After seeing this scene, the other soldiers who were planning to take the opportunity to retreat from the front line together were immediately upset and gave up that unrealistic idea.

But it was impossible for them to have no resentment towards each other in their hearts, especially after the battle, the Council of Light immediately questioned fiercely, and the answer they got was naturally... Rhode's order. This naturally made the military extremely angry. They found Rhode, but the answer they got almost made them angry.

"I was worried that the northern defense line would completely collapse under the continuous attack of the enemy, so I specially sent people to 'reinforcement'."

Rhode leaned on the chair. He looked at the military representative who was ashen in front of him with a blue face, clenched his fists and trembling all over his body. He spoke lightly, not knowing whether it was intentional or unintentional, but he bit the word "reinforcement" very seriously.

"Although we both belong to different camps, our goals are consistent, that is, to protect Winter Castle, prevent the invasion of the undead legion, and protect the people behind us from being threatened by death. For this goal, we should abandon our prejudice and fight together. The northern defense line is also very worried about the fall of the undead army, so just in case, I had to take some intense paragraphs to ensure that our results will not be lost due to the stupid behavior of some people......... The facts also prove that my judgment is correct."

Hearing Rhode's answer, the representative of the military headquarters was so angry that his face turned pale. But he didn't say a word. Because it was true, many people saw the defeated generals retreating, and they all had the intention to take the opportunity to evacuate. However, after seeing the final consequences of the unlucky guys with their own eyes, they had to restrain their inner thoughts and continue to fight. If no one was watching from behind at that time, they would have taken the opportunity to escape. At that time, the military headquarters was still the military headquarters. Now, no matter how at least they won, and the army directly under the Light Council was not lost. Rhode's approach could have been considered as protecting the military headquarters.

But the problem is that Rhodes acted too naked, and he looked like "I'm kind enough to give you face, but why don't you kneel down and sing to thank the Lord for your kindness." The military headquarters couldn't hold back. Of course, they knew that Rhodes didn't need any birds to protest at all, but the problem was that they couldn't just tolerate this, and they sued the Council of Light directly. After receiving this news, the Council of Light was overjoyed. They immediately found the church and claimed that Rhodes had violated the agreement, because the agreement stipulated that the military headquarters did not order Rhodes and Rhodes would not interfere with the orders of the military headquarters. Now Rhodes' approach obviously violated the agreement, so the agreement was invalid!

Faced with the law of the Council of Light, Rhode calmly stated that he had not interfered with the orders of the Council of Light at all, because he had not issued any orders to the northern defense line and the military headquarters. As for why he had to send a supervising team to the rear of the northern defense line, Rhode's answer was also calm.

"I want to make sure that the results of the southern defense line will not be lost."

He did not regard the soldiers on the northern defense line as being with him, so naturally there was no question of interference or not. In the end, the church did not adopt the law of the Council of Light, but declared that the agreement was valid, because Rhodes did not directly make any suggestions or orders to the Council of Light, and he did not even send people to communicate. The agreement did not make any provision on what Rhodes would do if they attacked the army of the Council of Light, so this would not be within the scope of the church's concern. The Council of Light itself did not write about what they would do if Rhodes attacked them at the time, because they were planning to take this opportunity to criticize Rhodes. If they wrote it in, they would have cheated themselves. Unexpectedly, they still cheated them if they didn't write it in now. This made the Council of Light helpless and even more speechless.

But as a pioneer of the reflective parliament, Rhodes has always been a hurry. Not long after the Council of Light raised objections, Rhodes asked the Council of Light through the church to obtain the pension in the previous agreement!!

In the previous battle, Rhode generously sacrificed all his 4,500 fire guards on the battlefield, but this sacrifice was not in vain. With the help of the self-destruction ability of the fire element creatures, the sacrifice of these 4,500 fire guards caused the collapse of the opponent's 30,000 army, which was also a very cost-effective deal. Only 500 sea elves survived. Original Rhode brought Agave and other sea elves to get the experience, so he would not be so stupid that he let them die. But those fire element creatures...... Let's talk about it separately.

Faced with Rhodes' request, the Council of Light was unhappy because according to the agreement, the pension required by Rhodes for each person who died in battle was three thousand gold coins!

That's three thousand gold coins!

On the Continent of Light, ordinary soldiers' pensions for death are only a few hundred gold coins, but Rhodes opened his mouth wide and asked for three thousand at the first time! This is also the main reason why the agreement between the Council of Light and Rhodes has not been reached before. The Council of Light believes that even if your soldiers are made of gold, it is not worth three thousand gold coins, and it is almost the same to lose a zero. Of course, Rhodes was unwilling to let go. He even claimed that his precious soldiers were priceless and that the three thousand gold coins were still low. Otherwise, he would have planned to start at 5,000 yuan and not to be capped.

Now, according to the previous agreement, the Council of Light will pay the pension of 4,500 "dead people" who died in Rhodes, each with three thousand gold coins. A total of 4,500 people... This means that the Council of Light will pay Rhodes a pension compensation of nearly 1,3,500 gold coins!!

This is naturally unwilling to come to the Council of Light. If Rhodes really killed 4,500 elite soldiers, they would be able to balance their minds a little. After all, it is hard to find elites with lanterns, and the cost of training and equipment from them is not a small number. If they really can dig such a piece of meat from Rhodes, they can still accept it. But 4,500 fire element creatures... What's going on?

Protesting is useless. They have already protested. When Rhode first came, the Council of Light wanted to abolish the agreement on this ground, but the church did not agree. Because the agreement did not stipulate that the race of reinforcements must be humans, they could not control what Rhodes love to bring. And now, what do they want to do? Of course, they can lie with their eyes open and say that Rhodes' reinforcements did not play any role in the battlefield, thereby weakening their importance. But is this possible? It would be fine if there was only one army of the Kingdom of Light, but this was a joint army. No one was fool. Whether it was the Council of Light or the Council of Light, they knew very well that if it were not the soldiers under Rhodes and the statue of the Holy Girl he brought, they would have dreamed to wipe out the enemy roots. What if Rhodes' army had no sense of existence in this battle, they could only deceive themselves.

In the end, the Council of Light still paid the money. It turned out that they were still counting on Rhodes to send people, and then sarcastically venting some anger in their hearts. The money was not in vain. But they waited and waited, but they were all looking forward to it. As a result, it was not Rhodes or his subordinates, but representatives of the church. They came to confirm and transfer the pension according to Rhodes' request.

From beginning to end, Rhodes did not give the light council a chance to vent his anger at all.

However, Rhodes did not care about the situation on the Council of Light. Although the commercial trade of Dragon Soul Continent is not as developed as the earth, it is not particularly backward. He asked the church to be responsible for helping, on the one hand, he did not want to vent his anger to the Council of Light and suffocate them to death. On the other hand, he used the church's financial network so that more than 13 million gold coins would be transferred directly to the Fortress of the Land of Sin. Of course, this does not mean that the church has to bring 13 million gold coins everywhere. Dragon Soul Continent has a mature financial system. What is used for trading and trading on weekdays are gold coins and silver coins.

and copper coins. However, when making large-scale transfers, platinum coins and equivalent diamonds are used for exchange, and further up, special currencies are needed for use of major forces. For example, the Heavenly Coin of the Land of Light is minted from platinum and magical crystals. One Heavenly Coin is equal to ten thousand gold coins, so the church only needs to put 1,350 Heavenly Coins in boxes and sent to the Land of Atonement. If Rhodes needs to use it, they can directly exchange it into platinum coins or even gold coins for use. Of course, if he only uses the construction system, he may not even need to exchange it...

However, the currency unique to each force is different in terms of pricing. The heaven and soul coins of the Continent of Light and the Continent of Night are all highly valuable coins. The former is minted with platinum and magic crystals, while the latter uses soul prisms. These are all common currencies in the entire Dragon Soul Continent. But on the other hand, things like blood coins are meaningless except that they are worth a few coppers in hell. And even such various types of currencies, the church can unify them completely and form a complete financial circulation system in the entire Dragon Soul Continent - to a certain extent, the Kingdom of France has long ruled the world.

However, this is not a question that Rhodes is concerned about. After defeating the Immortal Legion, he did not evacuate immediately. Firstly, because with the destruction of the Immortal Legion, Lilian's journey to the front line finally started again. Before that, Rhodes naturally wanted to meet Lilian. On the other hand, he also needed to wait for Sonia's report.

Shortly after the war ended, Sonia came again in the name of the representative of the Council of Light. Of course, on the surface, she came to protest to Rhode on behalf of the military headquarters, but in fact, Sonia came to report to Rhode the inside information that Rhode asked her to investigate that Lilian did not appear on the front line in time. As for protests, something... Sonia naturally didn't take it seriously.

However, the conclusions obtained from Sonia's investigation surprised Rhodes.

"Are you sure?"

Rhode sat on the chair, frowned, and looked at Sonia in a little surprised. When facing Rhode's inquiry, Sonia nodded and answered very surely.

"Yes, Master, I'm sure. The reason why His Majesty Lilian did not come to the front line was indeed because of security. The Council of Light believed that it was very dangerous for His Majesty Lilian to go to Winter Castle when the battle was about to break out. Because Lilian's schedule to go to the front line was delayed, Lilian also accepted the opinion of the Council of Light and went to the front line after the war at Winter Castle was over.

This is no different from the rumors Rhodes heard before, but it is precisely because of this that Rhodes feels incredible. Because this reason is really... too, too... too... how? He didn't know what to do. At the beginning, Rhodes thought that the Council of Light was extremely clumsy. But now he felt that the truth was truly extremely clumsy. But therefore he was sure that Sonia was indeed loyal to him- otherwise she would never have come up with such an idiotic investigation results.

But...how is this possible?

Faced with this conclusion that was in front of him, Rhodes was puzzled. It was the Creation Dragon Soul. As the Creation Dragon Soul, Lilian, as the Creation Dragon Soul, it is difficult for Saliye to come here in person to get it. It is a safety issue? Is it obvious that it is just a random excuse to shirk it out? But now judging from Sonia's internal investigation conclusion, this is still the truth? Is it so unprofessional to find an excuse to find an excuse?

And when he saw Sonia Rhodes in front of him suddenly had a question in his mind.

"Sonia, isn't anyone in the Council of Light that is worried that Lilian will defeat the Immortal Legion to consolidate her position?"

"Defeat the Immortal Legion? His Majesty Lilian?"

Faced with Rhode's question, Sonia was a little surprised. She was stunned for a moment before frowning.

"This…Master, I'm sorry, I've never heard of similar discussions in the Council of Light."

"Have even a formal MP had such a view?"

"No, master."

"What do you think about His Majesty Lilian's strength?"

Rhode stared at Sonia and asked again.

"strength?"

Sonia was even more surprised. She thought for a while before finally speaking.

"This…………Master, His Majesty Lilian is just a child..."

"Do you think her strength is stronger than the Battle Angel?"

"this……………"

Although Sonia did not fully answer Rhode's question, Rhode at this moment saw the answer he needed from Sonia's confused expression, which surprised him - as the second member of the Council of Light, Sonia, who is likely to be competent for the official position, knows nothing about the strength of the Creation Dragon Soul?!

And at this moment, an incredible conclusion emerged from Rhodes' mind.

Could it be that the Council of Light really knows nothing about Lilli’s strength?

If this is the case, then this may be more interesting than you think about it…………

Thinking of this, Rhode came to his senses, and then he looked at Sonia in front of him, a smile flashed in his eyes.

"You're doing a great job, Sonia."

"ah……………"

Hearing this, Sonia's eyes lit up, and the girl bit her lip lightly and looked at Rhode with anticipation. Soon, she heard the answer she had always dreamed of.

"Tonight, stay in your room obediently and I will give you the reward you expect."
