Chapter 344: Restless Turmoil

"Has something happened to Suzu lately?"

Looking at the back of the distant bell, Rod raised his eyebrows with some curiosity, and then turned to Christie and asked. In the face of Rod's inquiry, Christie was silent for a moment, and then spoke.

“…… Recent......... The people here ......... More ..............."

"More people? Is there anything wrong with this? ”

Rhodes certainly knows that as the number of immigrants increases, so does the number of people living in Grantia. This is not surprising, but although Rhodes does not intend to make Grantia a ghost town, he also does not intend to turn it into a bustling metropolis, it only needs to play its role as the political center of the Void Realm, as for other economic and military aspects, there are naturally other regions responsible for solving these problems. But even so, Grandia is a very peaceful and peaceful city, but Rhodes can't figure out what this has to do with Suzu's strange behavior, is Suzu the kind of otaku who is not used to staying in crowded places? But it didn't look like it at all.

“…………… A lot of people with children........."

Although Christie's voice was very small, so small that it was almost inaudible, Rod could still easily hear her voice, which made Rod slightly stunned, but soon, he also understood the hidden meaning of Christie's words. Perhaps because Suzu has always been too calm and honest, Rhodes subconsciously forgot that she was just a child about the same age as Christie and Little Bubblegum. And she's alone now, and the destruction of the vault has severed the last trace of contact between Suzu and her loved ones. Now she has no relatives, and it can be said that in this world, Suzu is the only one left.

And Christie obviously feels the same way, after all, her experience is not much better than Suzu, or even worse. If Suzu is still in the shelter, she can still be cared for by the elders. Christie, on the other hand, has been ostracized and attacked by everyone since she was born. If it weren't for Rod and the others who rescued her, she probably wouldn't be where she is today. And since then, she has also experienced similar hesitations as Suzu, whether they have strength or not, they are just children after all, and they are eager to have a loved one to rely on. Nothing is more important to them. Even if it is a rich second generation like Little Bubblegum who likes to throw a lot of money, Rod is not without feeling her complaints about her family and dissatisfaction with her father in the game, sometimes she just wants to live a more normal life, instead of being bored playing with her mobile phone at a lonely and deserted dinner table every day while eating expensive takeout, and there is no one to talk to. This is also the reason why Tiny Bubblegum is so enthusiastic and even willing to throw a lot of money after joining Starlight, because here, she can get what she has been longing for but can't.

Of course, it was a long time ago. Rod is keenly aware that Bubbles' feelings for him are not so pure, especially after that unexpected "unexpected exchange". So although Little Bubblegum has been holding parties under various pretexts to want Rod to show up, Rod has never attended. In fact, there are very few people in the guild who know his true identity, and there are only two canaries, so it is not so easy for little bubblegum to find him. And at that time, although Rod was very close to the canary, he never thought of the idea of playing little bubble gum——— he was still insensitive to being caught by the police and eating in a cell, and Rod knew very well that the reason why little bubble gum pestered him was also quite planned, "Since no one cares about me at home." Then I'll start a family on my own", if he gets on the little bubblegum thief ship. I'm afraid that this little guy will immediately cook the raw rice and then talk to himself about marriage or something......... At this point, she and Canary are two completely different types.

Left-behind children from single-parent families are a stubborn social disease......... Rhodes didn't expect to cross into another world and face the same problem, it seems that some social contradictions do have something in common. Now, though, Christie has settled into her new surroundings, but Suzu is clearly still lingering outside. I don't know if Lang Dao should accept all this. Maybe it was because she saw those families with children before that she began to feel something deep in her heart.

However, Rhodes didn't have a good way to deal with it, Suzu hadn't been here for long after all, and she was a cautious and introverted child, unless she was willing to express similar thoughts herself. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Rhodes to persecute her.

"I know, Christie. She's left to you, and now she's here, and you're the only friend. ”

In the end, Rod could only sigh helplessly, if he didn't take the first step in some things, then it would be difficult to say, and he couldn't do anything about it, he could only slowly change Suzu's thoughts through subtlety. And now, only Christie can be by her side.

“………… Well......... I know......... Rhodes ........."

Hearing Rod's words, Christie nodded obediently, she understood what Rod's meant, and after getting Christie's reply, Rod also smiled and stroked her head. He still trusts Christie very much, maybe others think that this girl is just an ordinary child, but Rhodes knows very well that Christie is a very committed person in her bones, and once she promises others what she wants to do, she will definitely work hard to do it. And this time, she didn't let herself down.

Suzu's transformation was only a minor episode, and after leaving her in Christie's care, Rhodes turned his gaze in other directions. As the Dragon of Creation, there are many things in the Void Realm that need to be dealt with by themselves, and these are far more important than Suzu's affairs. One of the most troublesome things is that at this moment, turmoil has begun to arise within the Void Realm.

The so-called can only share the sorrow but not the joy, and now such a problem has arisen in Rhodes' territory. As the situation gradually eased, the Void Realm gradually began to prosper, and some problems that had not appeared before gradually appeared in front of Rod. And these problems also made Rod feel a little headache.

"You mean, Dellett let those Grynes in?"

Hearing the report of Seven Loves, Rod's face became slightly gloomy. Observing Rod's expression, Seven Love nodded.

"Yes, master. However, Thor and Lando stopped the people, because we had made a decision to ban the Gryon from entering the country. ”

"That's right, I made that decision."

Hear the report of the Seven Loves. Rod nodded. It was his decision to ban the Gryon from entering the country, and Tiny Bubblegum and Canary raised their hands in agreement. The Grynes are a nomadic people who roam the continent, and they don't stay anywhere for long, for the simple reason that they are not welcome anywhere. They would initially beg each other to allow them to live in groups as very pitiful people, and then they would stay here after the other person's kindness. However, these people never obey the local laws and regulations, but stubbornly insist on using their own folk customs, if only that's it. They even force the locals to follow their customs and punish them if they object. This has made many places very angry with this group of outsiders. They have been expelled countless times, but they are still dead. As players, Rod, Canary and Little Bubblegum also have a very personal understanding of what this group of people are, and it is their own problem whether they love to insist or not, but if they harass others, it is another matter. So ever since the Void Realm began accepting refugees, Rhodes has given a death order and is determined not to let the Grynes enter. Once someone smuggles in, they will be directly expelled, and those who dare to resist will be killed.

For the order of Rhodes. Marlene can understand it more or less, and although the others are not very clear, but since this proposal has been unanimously approved by Rod, Canary and Little Bubblegum, and Marlene does not object, it is probably not a bad thing. So it went on.

But Rhodes didn't expect that someone would dare to cross the line and break the ban?

"What the hell is going on?"

Rhodes didn't make a decision immediately, and various contradictions in the guild in the game are endless, especially with the development and growth of the guild, the duel between the veteran faction and the new force is always indispensable. Some people believe that they have followed the guild since its inception. There is no merit and hard work, and the guild can't just give up on them, otherwise there will be no human touch? And some people think that the so-called position is naturally inhabited by capable people, I am ranked higher than you, output is stronger than you, and operation is better than you, why do you lead the team instead of me? And you don't go online twice a week, could it be that everyone wants to play a copy and has to wait for you to go online before you can enter the book, who do you think you are?

This is a problem that many big guilds will face, a bad handling is easy to cause disputes, if it is too biased towards the elderly, it will make the latecomers chill, they will feel that this guild is not fair at all, it is completely a hairy club. But if you are too partial to newcomers, it will make the old people feel dissatisfied, they think that they have worked hard, why should they stoop to those newcomers? Maybe they're good enough, but do they have a love for the guild like themselves? Will they be able to guarantee their allegiance to the guild? Don't go to the worst, the guild bothered to equip the other party with everything, and the other party patted his ass and was poached by other guilds, isn't that just a bamboo basket for water?

The Internet is a virtual world, but it is also because of the virtuality, so many times people are less restrained in reality, and there are not many people in the real world who dare to slap the table at the boss and stare at the boss's squid when they are not in a good mood. But in the online world, if you don't speculate in three sentences, you may withdraw directly from the blacklist, it's a big deal to die and don't get along, who do you think you are?

This is also the reason why many pure player guilds cannot develop and grow, one of which is that it is too virtual, and if all netizens meet online, then there is no basis for trust. However, if it is a guild formed by acquaintances in reality, then it will naturally develop towards the Mao Society, which is biased towards the elderly, and it will be difficult to obtain fresh blood, and it will eventually collapse under the squeeze of other large guilds.

Most of the large guilds that have developed are "interested" with each other in reality, such as the union of studios, or organizations that get paid and dividends through part-time jobs. Naturally, Rod's Starlight is no exception, the reason why his Starlight was able to grow into the First Guild after the most was because of the high skills of Rod and the others, and the small bubblegum throwing a lot of money also played a very important role. And in addition, Rhodes's starlight has repeatedly won various awards in the official competitions of the Dragon Soul Continent, and it can be regarded as a "semi-official image organization" invisibly. Rich, famous, status, and strength. Together, these can eventually form and expand, making Starlight the First Guild.

After crossing over to this worldly realm. Rod first instinctively came up with the way of managing the network guild, but then he found that there is a big difference between reality and the network, and although the people in this world will also intrigue, the lower-level people are basically more loyal and simple, and they belong to the type that basically does not oppose unless the government forces the people to rebel. Therefore, after that, Starlight and even the construction of the entire power structure, he combined his own ideas and the opinions of "local people" such as Marlene to complete it, and the effect has always been good. Maybe it's because they've been facing a considerable crisis, and they're also making a lot of money. The atmosphere inside Starlight is still relatively harmonious.

But now it looks like it's time to come.

Of course, Rod doesn't think that Delett doesn't know his own regulations, Rode's habit is that every time he issues any laws and regulations, he will make it clear to the people below that he understands why he wants to do it, unless he intends to make some conspiracy in secret, Rod is basically in the open. He doesn't ask for acceptance, but as long as he understands what he means. The Greon people are a cancer on the continent, a scourge. You don't see that they have been showing off their power since they occupied the land west of the Land of Light, and if the Land of Light dares to do anything to them, these guys will either gather and riot. Either they protest against the "racial discrimination" of the Land of Light and make them anxious. Even if the local authorities wanted to expel them, the Council of Light considered their actions "politically incorrect", so they could only stare at them. You can only watch these cancer cells turn into benign tumors, then develop into malignant tumors, and then drag down the whole territory but can do nothing.

Dellett thinks Saul and others are too rough, and he thinks the refugees are hiding from the war. The Void Lords should take them in. And ..............." said this, a slight smile appeared in Qiai, and like Rod, once this cunning fox showed a smug smile, it was probably nothing good. “……… There are quite a few people who support him. Most of them are ordinary members, and it seems that Mr. Dellett is very popular with the people. ”

"Hum ........."

Hearing this, Rod snorted coldly, although Qilian said it very vaguely, but he also knew what she meant. Starlight's biggest flaw before was that it was from a mercenary guild, and most of the mercenaries were big and coarse, and basically had no cultural knowledge. Rod still remembers the dilemma that except for a limited number of people such as Marlene, there was no one in the entire mercenary guild who could not even do the four calculations. Therefore, with the increasing strength of Rode's power, his demand for those "intellectuals" is much greater, and those mercenaries who can only fight and kill can only be the captain of some pro-guard teams or instructors for training recruits. The rank and position are not too high, but on the other hand, among the high-level talents around Rhodes, although there are many people who are older than those mercenaries, there are also some who are very young. For example, Marlene's deputy, An, who was only a wealthy businessman's lady before, has now become the treasurer of the entire region of the Void Realm, and is still a year younger than Marlene, and as a civilian official, she never goes to the front line, and she can't talk about any fighting. Even if it is Saul, Soth and others, it is because most of them have experience in leading a powerful force, so they can barely sit in the middle position. But they can only stop there, because what Rhodes needs next is talents who can face the exchange between countries, and these are obviously not the competence of a mercenary. Therefore, it is almost a sure thing that those latecomers will prevail. And this, of course, is not pleasing to everyone's eyes.

And now, those who come after are clearly using it to express their displeasure.

However, what makes Rod unhappy is not their thoughts, after all, it is normal for people to have this kind of thought, even in Rhodes's world, those little overlords in the school also look down on the top students, thinking that they will pretend to be good children and be praised by the teacher, in fact, what can they do except read dead books? This kind of thinking has been the same throughout the ages, no matter what the world. But what made Rhodes most unhappy was that they took a chip that was least suitable for them to express their opinions, and Greon was like shit, and he couldn't get rid of it if he stepped on it. If they take the opportunity to take root in the Void Realm, it will be very difficult for Rhodes to expel them even then.

"What now? Rod? Do you want us to expel them? ”

“…………… Not busy. ”

Hearing Qilian's answer, Rod shook his head with a gloomy face, now this matter is not suitable for making a big fuss, once it is known by Ion, then it will be troublesome. Now the two sides are facing off, and there is such a problem in their own territory, if Rod overreacts, then Ion may bite back, and at that time, the initiative will not be in Rhodes' hands.

Thinking of this, Rhodes made a decision.

"Let's wait and see what happens."
