Chapter 528: The Road to Glory (Part 2)
With less than three hours left, Rollin could already feel a feeling of exhaustion welling up in his body.
Turning his head and glancing at the patriarch who came with him, he only saw that he had a worried face, and he wanted to stop talking, without asking, Luo Lin knew that his current physical condition was not optimistic, and it was estimated that he would go to rest and sleep, and he would not want to wake up in three days.
Before resting, he had to make arrangements for Wolf Castle.
Now, although he has successfully captured the Wolf Castle, it is only a military conquest, and there is still a long way to go before he completely controls this land.
Rollin didn't expect to do this in less than three hours, all he had to do was make sure that while he rested, Wolf Castle and Blue Stone Castle were in a safe state.
There was a noise at the door of the zenith district, and it was Commander Dante who had arrived.
He was followed by several soldiers, who were escorting a beautifully dressed middle-aged woman and two teenagers of thirteen or fourteen years old.
"They are?" Rollin asked.
Dent was already convinced of the new lord of the castle, Vilando, and they had been fighting the wolf castle for six years, and the situation had been stalemate, even slightly disadvantaged, but as soon as the young lord of the castle came to power, their warriors stood in the zenith area of the wolf castle in just two days.
Everything is afraid of comparison, the soldiers have their own judgment on the level of the castle lord in their hearts, the simplest and most realistic criterion is who leads them to victory, who is a good castle master,
Undoubtedly, at this time, Verandu was a very outstanding castle lord who deserved their following.
The Commander gave a serious military salute to Verandu, and then said, "This is Lady Peranfili. Wolfe's wife. These are Wolf's two sons. Minoan and Mies. ”
Rollin nodded, noncommittal, his gaze looked at the middle-aged woman, who was frightened, her face was pale, her makeup was spent, her hair was messy, and she felt Rollin's gaze. She bowed her head timidly, not daring to make eye contact with Rollin.
Rollin looked at the two teenagers again.
The older one is called Mino, he has a gloomy face, gritting his teeth, but he lowers his head and does not speak, the younger one is called Mith, he is more direct, he glared directly at Rollin, with a rebellious face, feeling Rollin's gaze. He snorted heavily, as if to say, 'Kill me if you kind.'" ’
Rollin's face was expressionless. Unable to see anger or smile, he turned to look at Wolf's chief steward, Rod, and only then did a faint smile appear on his face, and asked, "Steward, what do you think I should do with them?" ”
The manager's face turned white, and he complained bitterly in his heart, what does this have to do with him? Isn't that pushing him into the fire pit when you ask him this?
He was stunned for a while, he didn't know how to answer, and after thinking for a long time, he stammered a little: "Castle Master"
"Humph!" But it was the youngest Meese who snorted again, and he looked at Rod: "Chief, my father is your castle master!" ”
Rhodes was silent immediately, beads of sweat bloomed from his forehead, and he could only bow to Rollin, his face full of pleading, but he didn't know what to say.
He is indeed the head of Wolf, but isn't Wolf finished, Wolf Castle is also occupied, and the owner of the Zenith is no longer Wolf, he has to think about himself.
He has a family, children and daughters, and if he throws himself to the lord of this castle in Bluestone, the diehards of Wolf Castle will definitely hate him to the core, and maybe they will hire assassins to assassinate him. If you don't vote, the new castle owner of this Blue Stone Castle is so young, if he plays a child's temper and kills him directly, is he wronged?
Seeing his hesitant appearance, Luo Lin easily guessed his concerns, he wanted to control the Wolf Castle, and he still needed this manager in a short time, because he knew the situation of the Wolf Castle best.
So he said, "Don't be worried. Now Wolf Castle, I have the final say. You have satisfied me, you are still the steward of Wolf Castle, and your wife and children and parents can move their families to my Blue Stone Castle. I guarantee their safety. ”
As soon as he said this, Rod's heart was relieved, and he hesitated, he gritted his teeth and said, "Castle master, my suggestion is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots!" ”
"Rod, you traitor!" Young Meese roared, his mother was white, the last trace of blood was gone, and his eldest brother Mino's fists were clenched, his teeth clucking.
Commander Dante also laughed, and said to Luo Lin: "Castle master, according to me, he will also be killed. We have a feud with the Morpheus! ”
Rollin still didn't say anything, looked at the patriarch on the side, and asked, "Patriarch Turns, what do you think?" ”
The patriarch was stunned, he didn't expect Rollin to ask him for his opinion, the servants of the gods do not participate in politics and infighting, this is the oracle.
So he replied cautiously: "The eighth chapter of the Ares of War says: A righteous warrior never kills women and children, nor does he kill those opponents who surrender and admit defeat, unless they belong to the abyss of darkness and evil. ”
Luo Lin nodded: "I will obey the admonition of the god of war. So be it, you three, if you will surrender to me, I will forgive you. ”
"I don't have the Morpheus family," Mino shouted, but he was only halfway up when he was interrupted by his mother, Lady Peranphyry.
The middle-aged lady pulled her son, and then stepped forward to salute: "You are our castle master." ”
"Mother" Mino still wanted to plead, but was pulled by his brother again, and he didn't say anything more.
Rollin saw it all in his eyes, he smiled, and said, "You made the right choice, Lady Peranfili. But your sons seem to be dissatisfied, and you need to discipline them well. I only get one chance. ”
Lady Peranfili immediately assured, "I will, please rest assured that the castle lord." ”
"Okay." Rollin nodded and said to Dante, "You take them down." Settle them well, and don't lack anything to eat. ”
"Yes, Castle Master." Although he didn't agree with the castle owner's approach, Dante would not object to such a small matter, he knew how to be an officer in the army.
After the affairs of Wolfe's widow and son were dealt with, Rollin said to the chief steward Rhodes: "Although I have chosen to forgive, I still don't feel at ease with them, and you must enlighten them well in the future." ”
"I'll do my best, Castle Master." Rhodes found that he couldn't guess the young castle master's thoughts at all, but the other party's arrangement made him feel like a man, it is conceivable that he will always be a traitor to the Morpheus family in the future, and he will always have to face the people he betrayed, which is really uncomfortable, but he has taken this step, and he can't regret it, so he can only accept it.
"Good. I'm going to give you a task now. ”
"You say."
Rollin said slowly, "I forgave the Morpheus family because I followed the teachings of the god of war, and I will always do so." Let every resident of Wolf Castle know that I am seeking the glory of the god of war and the path of glory of my father, Marshal Thales. You must let them know that I will never show off my people, this is my promise to Verando, and not to misunderstand what the inhabitants of Wolf Castle mean by me. ”
His voice was slow and not high-pitched, but after this near-miraculous victory, he spoke with a condensed power that shook his heart.
The people in the zenith area were silent, reminiscing about the words of the young castle master.
At this time, people remembered that the person in front of them was the son of Marshal Thales, and people suddenly remembered the glory of Marshal Thales back then, and only then did they remember the passionate passion that burned when the human race fought in the abyss more than ten years ago.
The fiery glory, the flowing golden grace, and the abundant rewards of the land have forged one glorious hero after another.
But now, all that glory is dying.
The marshal has fallen, the heroes of yesteryear and their descendants are fighting each other, the cause of the abyss has been abandoned, and the road ahead is shrouded in fog and there is no hope.
Luo Lin's words made people temporarily let go of their hatred and confusion, and temporarily returned to those hopeful years.
Rod let out a long breath, only to feel that the fear and insecurity that had lingered in his heart had dissipated, and all were replaced by an uplifting passion, and he bowed deeply: "I understand, castle master. ”
"Go ahead and do it." Rollin is gentle and authentic.
Rhodes strode away, his steps firm and powerful.
After he left, Luo Lin stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and the patriarch on the side immediately said: "Castle Master, your injuries have just healed, and now that the overall situation has been decided, why don't you rest early?" ”
Luo Lin shook his head and said, "It's just a small injury, and there are still some important things to do." Patriarch, I intend to go to the Temple of the God of War in Wolf Castle to pray for three days to express my heart, what do you think? ”
The patriarch was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Luo Lin's meaningful eyes, and suddenly understood that going to the Temple of the God of War to meditate was just an excuse, but in fact, it was to recuperate from his injuries.
He immediately said, "Fort Master, you follow the teachings of the God of War, and the God of War will bless you." I'll show you the way. ”
Rollin nodded, left the zenith area, got on the mechanical wheeled car, and went to the Temple of War. On the way, he finally instructed Nolan and Brighton to monitor the movements of Wolf Castle inside and outside.
Then, Rollin entered the Temple of the God of War.
Soon after, Governor Rhodes made two announcements.
The first announcement was to the effect that the Lord of the New Castle, Verando, would follow in the glorious footsteps of his father, Field Marshal Thales, and enter the Temple of War to pray for three days to prove his resolve.
The second is: the lord of the new castle, Verando, followed the teachings of the god of war, pardoned the wife and son of the lord of Wolfburg, and the rest of the surrenderers were not prosecuted for their crimes, and those who were willing to join the army would continue to be hired after investigation.
As soon as the two announcements came out, some of the rumors circulating in the market were immediately dispelled, and the Wolf Castle, which was surrounded by a panicked atmosphere, suddenly became reassured. (To be continued......)
