No one who participated in the Dragon Soul Sacred Scripture could have imagined, and even many people in the Principality of Moon and the Council of Light did not expect that this time on the Dragon Soul Sacred Scripture, the performance of both sides was so full of gunpowder, from the parade of thousands of people in the City of Light, to the huge magic guide warship of the Principality of Moon, to the duel between Lydia and the old council leader, this series of unusual actions made many people realize that this situation was extraordinary. Although it is said that the Council of Light and the Principality of Moon are fighting back and forth every year in the Dragon Soul Holy Scripture, but the dangerous situation of tearing the skin almost naked like today, as long as you take a wrong step, you will immediately start a war, but it has never happened, for a while, the representatives who came to participate in this holy ceremony are all panicked, in the past, they chose to stand in line, although they also have a generally clear position, but that is because no one between the Principality of Moon and the Council of Light has not torn their faces, although everyone stabbed each other in the back, But at least on the surface, it's still a ball of harmony. However, this time it was different, the Duchy of Moon was clearly more tough than before, and the Council of Light acted on a scale that had never been seen before. Such a fierce collision makes people feel that even if at this Dragon Soul Temple, it is not completely impossible for the Duchy of Moon and the Council of Light to be directly separated from each other.

After all, what happened in the Duchy of Moon before, and the news of the reformists' rebellion had already spread throughout the continent. And the lords' representatives of the principalities and territories are not fools, they certainly know that the reformers have the covert support of the Council of Light behind this uprising, but Lydia has no mercy, and it can even be said that it is very bloody and cruel to suppress this rebellion, and the Council of Light seized on this matter to make a big fuss and fiercely attacked the Duchy of Moon, and the relationship between the two sides has almost entered an unprecedented stalemate. This time of the Dragon Soul Holy Codex, the Council of Light wanted to use the power of the popular demonstration to give Lydia and others a threat, but soon Lydia used the kiss to win back a city, this kind of practice of not leaving face and room for the other party at all is basically equivalent to a complete break in a formal diplomatic occasion——— even between two hostile countries, it is impossible to do so.

And because of that. Many of the lords and representatives of the realms began to reconsider their positions and attitudes, and they were previously able to take a stand because there was not much sharp conflict between parliamentary and anti-parliamentary forces at that time. The benefits of taking a stand far outweigh the disadvantages. Some territories have defected to the Council of Light not because they agree with its authority, but simply because of the Council's generous welfare policies. And the same is true for those who have taken refuge in Moon, perhaps not everyone among them agrees with Lydia's idea that the Dragon Soul of Light should regain the power and status that belongs to it, but the Duchy of Moon is rich in resources, developed in commerce, and the magic technique is also considered high-level on the mainland, not to mention the existence of floating ships. It also expanded Moon's influence.

But now everything is different.

Moon and the Council of Light, once the two sides really tear the lepi then it will definitely be the rhythm of the bayonet, with the opposing ideas of the two sides and the accumulation of hundreds of thousands of years of grievances, once this powder keg explodes, then it will be the beginning of a river of blood. Perhaps the entire Continent of Light will be completely involved in an unprecedented war as a result. In the face of this situation, those territories and principalities that were originally trying to gain benefits by taking sides have to think carefully about their choices at this moment, which is almost equivalent to the last choice——— once they choose the wrong path, then it is not just as simple as being blocked and sanctioned. And the crisis of almost destroying the country and destroying the family.

For a while, people were panicked, and some people thought about how to survive in the conflict and contradiction between the two. Others try to make a lot of money, while others hope to persuade and persuade Lydia and the Council of Light to be less hostile. After all, outside the Continent of Light, there is also the Night Dragon Nation eyeing over. As the first barrier of the Continent of Light, once the Principality of Moon turns around and goes to war with the Land of Light, the consequences are self-evident. The Night Dragon Nation is not a humble gentleman. Once the situation really develops to this point, then the invasion of the undead legion is almost a foregone conclusion. For the sake of the creatures of the entire Continent of Light, I hope they can calm down, make concessions to each other, and make some sacrifices.

What reassures many people. After the old council leader saluted Lydia, the matter was barely over, and Lydia, who had received the benefits, did not go to trouble the Council of Light again, and although the Council of Light was extremely unhappy with this, the old council leader didn't know what to do with it, as if he had suddenly changed a person, he did not have the usual stubbornness and toughness, on the contrary, in the face of Lydia's aggressiveness, the old council leader repeatedly retreated. Although many members of the Council of Light were extremely angry at this old fool's behavior, they were still sensible, and it was unwise for Zhi Lu Dao to directly ask the old council leader in front of everyone. Although this old fool's support rating in the country of light is almost at an all-time low, in any case, he is still the president of the Council of Light until the election is over, and if they do oppose it in public, then the Council of Light will be disgraced.

However, this does not mean that the people of the Council of Light do not know what they should do, and after the welcoming ceremony, everyone closes the door, and some of them are enough for this old fool!

Others aren't unaware of this, but they don't bother either. Whatever was going on in the old man's head, as long as the Council of Light didn't fall out with the Duchy of Moon immediately, then they would have room to maneuver. Now that they themselves are unable to protect themselves, who cares about an old man who is dying?

After the welcome ceremony, the delegation of the Principality of Moon went to the palace located in the Dragon Temple of Light to rest, this is their only privilege in the Land of Light, as one of the three archangels, although Lydia is not by the side of the Dragon Soul of Light all the year round, but as an archangel, she still has the right to have a palace of her own in the Temple of the Dragon Soul of Light——— of course, not as big as the other two archangels.

And the representatives of other territories and powerful forces also found excuses to disperse quickly after the welcome ceremony, it was the first time for them to participate in such a dangerous, terrifying welcome ceremony as if walking on thin ice, although the Council of Light held the welcome ceremony was quite gorgeous, but everyone's mind was not at all in those gorgeous songs and dances. With delicious food and beautiful dancing girls, they watched the Council of Light and the Munn delegation back and forth with almost wide eyes, holding their breath, for fear that one of them would not have long eyes to pop out and be the spark that ignited the powder keg.

Fortunately, blessed by the Holy Spirit, both sides are quite calm.

Quite a few people left the venue. When they walked into the carriage, they felt a cold sweat on their backs, as if they were not going to the banquet at all, but walked to the execution ground and walked in front of the gallows——— but fortunately no one kicked off the stool under their feet. At this moment, everyone who had finally left the gallows immediately retreated one after another, and began to consider the choices they should make in the future. There were still two days left before the Dragon Soul Sacred Book began, and this was their only chance, and they had to think clearly about their choice between following the Council of Light or the Duchy of Moon. Or you have to make a choice, no matter what.

And they are not the only ones who are questioning this.

"I really didn't expect Her Highness Lydia to actually do this."

Marlene sat in a chair, teacup in hand, and looked out the window with a frown, and it was already dark outside. In the light of the fire, you can vaguely see not far from the window. Goose feathers and heavy snow drifted down, bringing a bit of a dreamlike scene to the night. At this moment, Anne was lying in front of the window, stretching out her finger to write and draw on the window. Lijie sat next to her, quietly listening to Rod and Marlene's speeches.

Marlene's doubts are not unreasonable, and Rhodes is well aware of them, although on the surface. Lydia's actions made the Duchy of Moon very proud in front of the Council of Light, but on the contrary, this is not normal——— the reason for this lies in the system of the Duchy of Moon. The Duchy of Moon and the Council of Light have not torn their faces all along, not because they are not as strong as the Land of Light. Financially inferior to the Land of Light, or allies inferior to the Land of Light. And it's just a very simple reason——— the Grand Duke of the Principality of Moon is one of the three archangels under the Dragon Soul of Light, and she naturally has to obey the orders of the Dragon Soul of Light, and in turn, because of this, the Principality of Moon does not have the basis for tearing its face with the Kingdom of Light, because the Dragon Soul of Light is still the nominal master of the Kingdom of Light, and if Moon and the Kingdom of Light tear their faces, then it means that the Archangel rebels against the Creation Dragon Soul.

This is absolutely absolutely absolutely impossible.

It is precisely because of this knowledge that the Council of Light has always dared to attack the Duchy of Moon so recklessly, just like a little hooligan who kidnapped the mother of a beautiful girl, without worrying about the other party's resistance or the intensification of conflicts. It wasn't until later, when the Principality of Moon gradually grasped the lifeblood of the Land of Light through economic infiltration, that the strength of both sides gradually changed. And in Lydia's time, the archduke swept away the meekness and softness of the previous archangels, and began an iron-blooded and tough resistance.

However, she is also the archangel after all.

Today's scene, Rod also sees it, and taking a wrong step is a sign of all-out war. Although the result was not bad, Rhodes knew very well that it was really just luck, if he was unlucky, he was afraid that in the Dragon Soul Holy Codex, the Duchy of Moon and the Kingdom of Light would completely declare war on each other.

But how dare Lydia do this?

In an instant, a new direction of development suddenly popped up in Rod's mind.

"Could it be that Her Highness Lydia wants the Council of Light to show us the tough side? Tell them we're not bullies? ”

Lijie frowned and spoke. Marlene shook her head slightly, obviously not agreeing with Lijie's statement.

"Her Royal Highness Lydia is not the kind of person who is reckless, today's scene is really dangerous, I think everyone can see it, although everyone has maintained restraint, but that's because the council elder is the first to show weakness, if the council leader still shows toughness in the face of His Highness, I'm afraid what we are going to discuss here now is the battle against the country of light."

"That's ....................."

"Rod, what do you think?"

Marlene raised his head and looked at Rhodes next to him, and hearing Marlene's inquiry, Rhodes frowned slightly, and then, he spoke.

"I have an idea, but I want to say that only you have heard me say these things. Out of this door, I'm not going to admit that I've said that. ”

"Mr. Rhodes?"

Perhaps because Rod's tone was too serious, Li Jie couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, she put her hands clenched in front of her chest, and looked at the young man in front of her with a somewhat worried expression. Marlene, on the other hand, widened her pupils slightly, at the moment when Rhodes spoke. She seemed to have something in mind, too. And at this time, Rod said in a steady tone.

“……………… I suspect that Her Highness Lydia made her choice under the influence of the Light-Forcing Dragon Soul. ”

"What............!!"

As soon as these words came out, it was like thunder on the ground, and Lijie and Marlene suddenly stood up, the former was pale, and the latter was suddenly enlightened. But no matter what their expressions were, the two of them knew very well why Rod would say ——— this. Indeed, it cannot be heard by others.

The Dragon Soul of Light is a mysterious existence on the Continent of Light, almost more than 90% of the people who live under the protection of the Dragon Soul of Light have only heard of the Dragon Soul of Light and have not seen it, but in any case, as the inheritor of the Dragon Soul, the Dragon Soul of Light still enjoys a certain reputation on this continent, and no one is allowed to mention the name of the Dragon Soul of Light without authorization, otherwise it will be regarded as a great disrespect to the Dragon Soul of Light. Even in the Land of Light, the Dragon Soul Inheritor itself is a taboo. It is rarely talked about in public, but for the Council of Light. Naturally, they didn't want the Dragon Soul Inheritor to have a higher sense of presence among the people, so it was a good choice to be deliberately erased and forgotten.

And now, Rod's words are equivalent to "insulting" the two supreme beings at the same time.

But Rod didn't care, because he really thought so. And Rod's inference. It comes from his experience in the game, in the game, although the dragon soul of light has not appeared in front of the player, but judging from the other party's several performances, Rod feels that this dragon soul of light is a person who has no self-awareness and thoughts. Or rather, it is difficult to assert one's own opinions. has always been subservient to the Council of Light, even if Lydia was defeated and died, this dragon soul inheritor did not show the momentum that he should have as the master of the three archangels. Not only that, but the Dragon Soul Inheritor obediently let the Council of Light send him to the mouth of the Night Dragon——— and then was swallowed by the other party.

After reading the short life of this dragon soul inheritor, what was Rode's first reaction to the other party?

Weak.

This Dragon Soul Heir seems to be a very, very weak existence, and it is difficult to express his opinion. Introverted, cowardly, submissive, no opinions, going with the flow, letting others decide their own lives——— if you are an ordinary person, then there is no way to live like this. But considering the powerful power of the Dragon Soul Inheritor, if he really wants to live like this, then it can only be because of his own personality!

And Lydia's approach is tantamount to telling the Dragon Soul of Light unmistakably that there is no way to reconcile between them and the Council of Light, and even maintaining a superficial peace is already an absolutely impossible thing!

And how will the Dragon Soul of Light choose?

Rod didn't know if his guess was correct, but all he could do now was wait and see——— if Lydia really intended to be here, then in the Dragon Soul Sacred Scripture, there must be a clue!

Thinking of this, Rhodes looked out the window.

There, the deep darkness of the night swallowed up the sky like ink.

The flames crackled as they burned in the fireplace, and the heat from the flames dispelled the cold. However, it was just a physical chill.

The old council chief curled up and sat down in his chair, and he raised his head and looked at the people in front of him, their eyes were full of angry fire, and they clenched their fists tightly and looked at themselves like this. It's ridiculous to want to eat yourself alive and tear yourself apart——— completely.

Thinking of this, the old man suddenly wanted to laugh, he now felt as if he was in a burlesque, he looked at his colleagues in front of him, and for the first time felt that they were not terrible at all. In the past, he always tried to win them over, to cater to them, in order to be able to give himself more power, to sit in this position longer. But now, all of a sudden, he found it all boring, he was like a clown, and they were ——— a bunch of clowns.

"We're waiting for your explanation, Thomas. Crean. ”

Finally, a man couldn't help but break the silence, he took half a step forward, clenched his fists, and stared at the old man in front of him with wide eyes. Even the title of the head of the council has been omitted.

"You've brought the Council of Light to shame. Shame on the seniors we fought for!! Our ancestors have given so much for their struggles and independence, but today!! The hard work of countless ancestors has been ruined because of you!! You alone have ruined the glory of the entire Land of Light!! Don't you want to explain this? For what?! You're going to make such a humiliating move in the face of that woman!! ”

"Hehehe....................."

Hearing the other party's questioning, the old council chief was not only not alarmed, but also did not get angry. Instead, he laughed.

The old man curled up in his chair and looked at the crowd in front of him with a smile, and he felt that he had never felt more happy than ever.

"Explain? You should be well aware, guys, is there any other way for us to go? ”

"But why do you have to choose such a stupid approach, we still have .................."

"What other choice do we have?"

The old man interrupted the other man, and he looked up. Squinting his eyes, he took a moment to look at his angry colleague in front of him.

"Do you really think we have any other choice? Ladies and gentlemen, we need money, and His Highness the Grand Duke can bring us the money we need, and give up that wealth for the sake of a false name? So how do you plan to fill the financial gaps and holes in the coming year? ”

"We can increase taxes!! We can even raise commercial tariffs!! ”

"From whom? Do you think we have what it takes to do that? ”

“……………………………”

Looking at the silent crowd, the old council leader looked from left to right. and looked from right to left.

"Now, you're angry. Everybody. You are angry, and you are yelling at me as if I had alone abandoned the glory of the Council of Light. But don't continue to pretend your innocence here, you all saw Her Highness Lydia's actions, but what did you do at that time? Now you are angry that I have not been able to protect the glory of the Council of Light. But at that time, did anyone stand up and stand with me? ”

The old man stood up and glared at the crowd. And under his gaze, some people even subconsciously retreated several times.

"You don't. I know that you are waiting to see what I decide, and that you can lash out at me no matter what I do. It's as if now, I'm on my knees, and you can say that I've forsaken the glory of the Council of Light. And what if I refuse? At this, the old council chief stretched out his hands and smiled sarcastically.

"Can't you also say that I don't understand the overall situation and make a dangerous move for the sake of a momentary battle for face?"

“……………………………”

In the face of the old council president's words, many people were speechless, because they really planned to do so.

"You say I've insulted the glory of the Council of Light, but I know very well that many of you would love to see me kneel before the Archangel and see me in disgrace! I'm afraid your hearts are refreshed right now! Not only is there an excuse to kick me out of power, but I can even see such an embarrassed side of me! Have you ever had the glory of the Council of Light in your hearts at this time? Have you ever thought about what our ancestors did and what they did for this?!! ”

The old council leader's voice grew louder and louder, while the others were silent at this time, but the old man didn't seem to need them to say anything.

"However, I still love this country, and I don't want this old face. You see, just like now, at least we don't have to worry about Her Highness Lydia cutting the amount of her gifts, and maybe she'll increase it a little bit when she's happy, so wouldn't it be nice that next year we can not only fill the hole in our finances completely, but even have a slight surplus? ”

"Lord, please respect yourself!!"

Finally, someone couldn't listen anymore.

"This statement of yours is simply ............... naked"

"I don't care."

The old man waved his hand, interrupting his unfinished words.

"I'm not going to be re-elected anyway, I know that better than any of you. So, if there is still a trace of surplus value in my old bones, as long as the people of the Land of Light can continue to live a stable and peaceful life, what can I do with this old face? And isn't that exactly what you want me to do? ”

Saying this, the old man straightened his waist. At this time, many people discovered that the old man who had been careful in their memories and only accompanied the smiling face was so tall at this time.

"However, I am still the President of the Council of Light, and as long as I am in power for one day, then I will insist on doing what I want."

The old man's eyes had never been so determined, so resolute as they were today.

"As long as I can for the Kingdom of Light, I will give everything."
