Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
Summer goes to autumn.
The days are still passing day by day, and everyone is busy with their own affairs in an orderly manner. With the passage of time, people have gradually become familiar with new life. Although from the beginning, this large-scale migration throughout Dragon Soul Continent makes many people unacceptable. But now, they have gradually accepted this kind of life, and began to resume their work and labor day by day in the new land. Although many wars have been experienced before, many people have lost their loved ones in the face of smoke and death, but the dead are already gone, and the living still have to continue their lives after all.
Not to mention, in the current "world", it is not easy to want real death.
However, in this calm day, a news suddenly came out like this, which surprised many people. Because during this time, someone rumored that their ruler was actually related to Devil! Not only that, they even teamed up with Devil to turn all those soldier who were unwilling to fight on the battlefield into evil and horrible monster! !
When the news came out, many people were clamoring. Many people who were fighting on the front line were also panicked at the moment. Although this was only a rumor among the cities, it still caused a certain degree of panic. Of course, in fact, most people do not trust this kind of gossip, because this kind of gossip is basically without evidence, there is nothing authentic at all. Its value is the same as the so-called "long, long ago" oral tradition. However, the so-called Ning Xinxin has its credibility and its lack, and such rumors spread so widely, it will inevitably make people feel a little drummed. After all, the creation dragons such as Rhodes did not tell the general public the truth, but only selectively told them that because of the stupid behavior of the Ian idiot (pushing the error to the dead is more convenient than anything), it led to the invasion of monster Dragon Soul Continent. In order to repel the monster and ensure their safety, they moved them to the inland core area.
This statement is still recognized by quite a few Kingdom of Light people. If it was before, they may disdain this statement. But after suffering from the war, they have no conditions to make more demands. And the continuous aggression of Kingdom of the Night has indeed made Ian leave a dark and big * OSS impression on the Kingdom of Light's people. Even if it is that he intends to want the destruction world, these people must believe that the other party did it. So for the Rhodes' statement, these Kingdom of Light's people can be considered fully accepted. Because of this, when Rhodes and Lydia dispatched soldier to the front to fight against Chaos Demon Monster, they did not block anything. But now, in the context of this rumor, many people have started somewhat worried. Although it is just rumours without evidence, Rhodes and Lydia are not good people in the impression of Kingdom of Light people. Especially Rhodes, when he was first-hand destroyed Casablanca, he killed all the people in the entire Kingdom of Light capital. In the minds of Kingdom of Light people, compared with Ian, he is not much worse than Demon King, so it is not entirely unreasonable to say that Rhodes and Devil collude. What's more, when Casablanca was eliminated before, there appeared to be rumors that Rhodes communicated with Devil and called Devil Legion destruction Casablanca. Then, it is not impossible to have such a thing happen again, is it?
Because of this, this rumor has been widely circulated in Kingdom of Light, and many people were panicked for a while. I'm afraid that my loved ones on the front line will be caught by that terrible Devil and made into monster or something.
But what makes people feel weird is that in this case, Lydia did not deny and tried to stop this rumor. On the contrary, just when the rumors were hot, she also made a public announcement. In this announcement, Lydia severely condemned some frontline soldier for escape, which led to the act of the defense line almost falling. At the same time, she also admitted that these deserters were given very severe penalties, and in the end Lydia did not forget to warn soldier elsewhere to use it as a warning, and found that there were similar acts of escape from the battle, severe punishment.
Although this announcement by Lydia was only issued to the military, it was not released to the general public. But the news was still spread through various channels. For a time, everyone was in full swing, although the Lydia announcement did not specify what specific punishment was imposed on the soldier who fled, but she did not deny turning the other party into monster, did she? It is for this reason that after the announcement of this announcement, instead of calming down, the uproar of originally has gone further.
"Is this really no problem? Your Majesty Rhodes?"
Come leisurely into a soft chair, Lydia put down the file in his hand, then raised his head to look at Rhodes sitting in front of himself. In fact, what Rhodes did Lydia is very clear. It was Gaya who brought Scarlet Trained Daemon, and she also knew that Rhodes subordinate/hand had Greater Devil like Celestina. However, as Archangel Leader, Lydia is not a pedantic person. She also knows that there is nothing more important than the safety of the entire Dragon Soul Continent. Therefore, as long as Rhodes does not let herself see something, she will be happy to pretend she does not know.
When this rumor appeared, Lydia wanted to suppress it. However, Rhodes prevented her from doing so, so that Lydia knew that Rhodes must have used any means to leak the news. Even Lydia has to admit that this is a dangerous move for Rhodes. Indeed, after hearing this news, under this unknown terrorist threat, I am afraid that soldier in other places in the following battles will have to think about it again if they want to escape again. However, this will also cause instability in the country. In fact, since this time, Lydia has received several dissatisfaction with this matter within Kingdom of Light, and even people have taken to the streets to protest, asking them to disclose the frontline battle the truth. Although these are only small-scale, but Lydia is well aware of the virtue of Kingdom of Light people. If they don't have an answer, they will get bigger and bigger, and conversely, even if there is an answer, if they can't satisfy them, then they will get bigger and bigger. And Lydia can be sure, if they know the truth, then it's not just that it's as simple as getting louder ......... Although she herself is the truth of not very clear.
"No problem, Your Highness Lydia, just go on like this. As long as you guarantee that these rumors only circulate inside Kingdom of Light, there is no problem."
For Lydia's inquiry, Rhodes is very calm. And seeing this scene, Lydia is also brows raised. Although Rhodes did not say so, she almost guessed the idea of Rhodes'. I am afraid that this time, Rhodes is going to start his best trick again.
For Rhodes, Lydia thinks she knows a lot. From the first time she heard the news of youngster, Lydia has been secretly paying attention to Rhodes. In her view, what Rhodes is best at is not combat, nor any strategy or tactics, but his ability to spread strangely intrigues. According to Rhodes', what he seems to be called "pull the masses to fight the masses", this trick Lydia has already been seen in the midsummer festival. At that time, Rhodes won the competition in the arguably the most controversial way, and after that it also caused a lot of anger and accusations. At that time, Lydia was very curious about how Rhodes would handle this matter, although with the ability of Lydia, it was not impossible to suppress this kind of voice. But she still wanted to see how Rhodes handled the crisis, but what Lydia didn't think of was that after that, Rhodes actually changed the direction of public opinion ingeniously. Not only did it easily reverse the whole situation, it even made those who were dissatisfied with him to become his most loyal supporters. This unexpected change made Lydia quite surprised. Of course she knew what Rhodes did in it, but she didn't expect that the effect would be so immediate. And now seeing Rhodes taking the initiative to pour dirty water on himself again, he has no intention of pulling out at all. Lydia knows that he may be planning to play that trick again, otherwise he will not let himself limit the scope of rumors to Among Kingdom of Light.
Although there are no popular items like network in this era, it is much simpler to restrict freedom of expression than later generations, but verbal communication is actually always the fastest method of message transmission, even the speed of light network cannot compare Extensive spread. Therefore, it is not easy to limit the spread of gossip, but Lydia is very clear, maybe it is not easy elsewhere, but within Kingdom of Light, this is still very simple.
The reason is simple, because Kingdom of Light's is exclusive.
I have to admit that freezing three feet is not a day ’s cold, or that the rivers and mountains may change is hard to move. This is nice. It ’s hard to say that the dog ca n’t change the way to eat shit. Even if Rhodes bombed Casablanca, it killed hundreds of thousands of Kingdom of Light people. The cold and noble energy in them hasn't changed. Even in front of Lydia and Rhodes they can hold their tails like dogs, but in front of others they still look like superiors. Perhaps it is the absolute inferiority caused by absolute arrogance, or it may be that they still look down on people in other places. So even if Rhodes and Lydia migrated the Kingdom of Light's people to the Territory of the Void and Moon lands, they formed a small circle of self-care and rarely contacted people from other places. This is especially true of people like Moon Dukedom and Territory of the Void, which they had never looked down on before. Now the Kingdom of Light's people are quite like those who used to be noble in origin, but later had to enter the slums in their families. Although there is no difference on the surface, they are different from those who have been beggars for generations. They are noble Noble!
For this point, Rhodes naturally knows well, maybe this is the reason why he deliberately let this kind of gossip. As he said before, butt decides for the brain, position determines attitude. In the eyes of Kingdom of Light people, Rhodes and Lydia, one is the Devil who slaughtered hundreds of thousands of their compatriots, and the other is the tyrant who suppressed them with high pressure. For their bad words, there must be as many mouths as they can say, even the drafts are not necessary call taxi.
But for Moon and Territory of the Void people are different. For Moon, Lydia is an excellent and outstanding leader. Under her leadership, the people's lives are rich, peaceful and harmonious, and she also led the army to block the Kingdom of the Night's repeated attacks, which is not the same as Kingdom of Light. Compared with the scene of someone collapsing and fleeing as a result of the continuous burning of their homes, it is simply a stark contrast.
What about Rhodes? For Territory of the Void people, he is a beacon in this chaotic world. It was he who personally led the way to open up this land and gave shelter to those who were displaced by the war. Moreover, many of these people followed the Rhodes into the Land of Chaos to continue to develop, in which retreat came down to enjoy the old age mercenary. In my spare time, I will brag to the people around me that I had been working with Your Majesty Rhodes on the days of Land of Chaos development. Because of this, the status of Rhodes in Territory of the Void is almost the same as that of Lydia in Moon.
In this case, the Kingdom of Light's people have intensified their bad talk, and there is still no real evidence (after all, Rhodes is also targeting Kingdom of Light deserters, although other places are not without escape. People, but after all, it is not as common as Kingdom of Light, so Rhodes simply has a double standard.) In this case, there may be people who believe the rumors of Kingdom of Light people. But most people will not believe it. Therefore, Rhodes doesn't need to worry about what will cause internal chaos. After all, even if it is chaotic, the chaos is only inside Kingdom of Light, and the impact in other places will be very limited. And he is also fully prepared. ——— For Rhodes, compared to the entire Dragon Soul Continent, Kingdom of Light that little people do not need to care at all, right?
"Since you have already said that, I will not do much more. But Your Majesty Rhodes, I still hope you can pay attention to the size a little bit, after all, the current situation ......... is not very beneficial to us . "
"I know this very well, Your Highness Lydia."
As for the Lydia reminder, Rhodes smiled and answered. He also knows that Lydia doesn't really like doing this kind of thing herself. Fortunately, she is also Archangel Leader. Even if she can focus on the overall situation, it doesn't mean that she can also accept Rhodes' behavior. Being able to do nothing without asking is already a good face for Rhodes, and it ’s because everything Rhodes does has a cause, not just to satisfy her own desires, otherwise she wo n’t be so easy Let go of Rhodes. But Rhodes knows this very well, so he also answered the Lydia reminder very seriously. After hearing Rhodes''s answer, Lydia smiled slightly, and then stopped talking about this topic.
However, this is not the main reason why the two will drink tea and chat here. The reason why they will get together again, as Lydia said, Chaos has been a little weird since this time. Not that they are restless again, on the contrary, but because they are too safe. After the previous battle, Chaos Demon Monsters never appeared in front of everyone. To this end, Rhodes and Lydia also sent special patrols deep into the battlefield, want to explore the situation of Chaos on the edge of barrier. But the news that got them surprised them quite a lot. According to the news from the patrols, those Chaos Demon Monsters had all disappeared, and even the edges of barrier did not have their shadows! !
Such anomalous performance naturally attracted Rhodes' ’s attention. He and Chaos have been fighting longer than others. experience of Chaos is also quite rich. Right now, except for Seven Pillar Demon God and Younger Sister and his own Holy Sword Card, Rhodes I think I know these Chaos better than anyone else. Right now they disappear so abnormally, there must be something wrong, especially after having a conversation with the big red eyeball in person, Rhodes always feels that this time Chaos seems to have a big picture. The previous attacks were nothing more than temptations. Maybe soon, these terrible monster will attack Dragon Soul Continent again. But now they have no better way than to wait here.
"Do you think this time, what means will those Chaoss use? Your Majesty Rhodes?"
Facing Lydia frowned, Rhodes shrugged his shoulders, spreading both hands helplessly.
"I ca n’t say good about this, Your Highness Lydia. After all, the means used by Chaos are so strange that anything can happen. All we can do is to prepare before this to deal with the progress of Chaos ......... … "
"Rumble ——— — !!!"
However, Rhodes' had n’t finished speaking. Suddenly, a deafening thunder sounded, interrupting him. Hearing this thunder, both of them were shocked.
What's going on? Why thunder?
The weather protected by the Dragon Soul barrier in the Dragon Soul Continent has a certain relationship with the mood of the Dragon Soul successor. Before Lilian did not retrieve her strength, she could not control this aspect. But now, the Lilian that has retrieved all strength has also become a real Dragon of Light, then her mood will also affect the ground in the light Dragon Soul Protection. Of course, this is not to say that all emotions will cause changes in the weather, and only those intense emotions will cause similar reactions. But now Lilian's mood is very stable, and the weather changes during this period are also normal, why is there a sudden thunder?
Thinking of this, Rhodes hurriedly stood up and walked to the window, and then looked out, and almost at the same time, accompanied by a deafening thunder, a red lightning struck straight from the sky Next, heavily hit the ground. Seeing this scene, Rhodes is complexion slightly changed.
"This is ............... !!!" RS
