Chapter 851: Three Months
Kardashian's mouth opened slightly, as if she had something to say, but seeing her father walking so neatly, she couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved in her heart - when she signed the contract, she promised it very happily, but now she actually said that she would breach the contract, and she didn't even owe two more explanations...
"Don't stand here yet, Nata, come in. ”
Roddy didn't show much emotion, as if he had just left as an inconsequential fellow. However, his steps were a little heavy, and when he entered the room, he looked a little tired from lying down in the armchair.
Nata bit her lip and remained silent. She understands that something bad must have happened, it seems that the cooperation between the Frost Dragons and Elson City has broken down?
"I'll go to him and ask for an understanding!"
Kardashian looked at Roddy's appearance, and felt even more uncomfortable, and she got up and was about to go out. Roddy stopped him: "Don't go... You and I both know the consequences, so don't try to make him change his mind now. ”
He took a deep breath and rubbed his temples - even though Roddy had been mentally prepared for Basta's words, he still didn't expect the situation to suddenly get so bad: Victor said that the Frost Dragons would completely stop all cooperation with Elson City in the future, because the Dragons had made a decision internally: the next alliance with humans would be completely dominated by the Red Dragons, and everything would be decided by the Red Dragons.
Victor didn't say the follow-up reason, apparently because Roddy was not qualified to understand at all. But Luo Di didn't have to guess to know that it must have been the Red Dragon Clan that had used some means to force him to give up, otherwise the lord wouldn't have to come to inform him in person.
He came in person, in fact, it is already a kind of "sincere apology" - but this is only a matter of face, in fact, after the signing of various agreements, suddenly regretted, the biggest loss is still Elson City. It is self-evident that this kind of thing happened when the prestige established by the "Magic Exchange" was about to reach its peak, and it is self-evident that it was devastating.
Although before leaving, he asked Kardashian to fulfill her promise to "help once", but then gave a three-month deadline. The implication is obvious: I can maintain this state for a maximum of three months, and then you will be blessed.
Victor has already made his efforts, and Roddy has to be grateful to the other party while suffering a huge loss, which is the gap caused by unequal status. Kardashian didn't notice this before, but in the prison of time and space, she deeply experienced the arrogance of "herself", and now she experienced her father's ruthlessness from Roddy's point of view...
This empathy made Kardashian grit her teeth - because she knew that Roddy was the one who really stood up to Elson's pressure, and the pain and humiliation he experienced in his heart was much stronger than his own.
"So what now? Watching Quiao bully you like this?"
She struggled to calm her breathing and asked.
"Truth be told, Elson City is not qualified to let Quiao bully. Saying that he was targeting me really gave me face. I guess it's just a matter of handy to try to fix me..."
In the past, Roddy's categorical would not have had such a clear idea. But after his horizons were broadened, he was naturally able to understand the ideas of different power levels more deeply. I'm angry and angry, but there's really no way to do this kind of thing - can you still reason with Queio?
"Let's not talk about Quevo, your father is probably depressed now. No matter what I say, I have to thank him. ”
Roddy pulled the dew-huffing Kardashian to sit beside him, now his mood recovered very quickly, the moment of real anger was only a few seconds, and now his expression was not as stiff as before: "The enemy we have to face is not Quevo... Now that Elson has given up on working with the Frost Dragon, it is not without opportunities to continue working together in the future. ”
Naturally, his words were reassuring to his eldest wife, Victor saved face for himself, and what reason did Roddy have to completely turn his face with others? He reached out and gently smoothed Kardashian's frowning brows, and the latter ate Roddy's set, and the original appearance of fighting at any time gradually relaxed: "Then what should I do now?"
"All plans go on, see the moves. Roddy's eyes became solemn: "If Quiao is looking for someone else, then leave him alone first, if he chooses Charles II... That should speed up our plans. ”
Having said this, he raised his head and said to Kardashian: "I have sent a few new drawings from the research department today, if they can be made as soon as possible, it is the best." ”
The little female dragon didn't say a word, got up and walked out: "I'll go now." ”
After the door to the lab closed, Roddy exhaled slowly and pointed to the chair next to Nata, "Sit down and talk." ”
The action he coaxed Kardashian just now did not avoid Nata, although the latter did not have much expression on his face, he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart. But this emotion has been habitually suppressed by her - he understands that helping Roddy solve the crisis in Elson City in front of him is the meaning of her efforts to get to where she is today.
"In two weeks, you'll be going to the Silent Forest with the group. The task of encircling and suppressing the high elves this time relied heavily on the cooperation of the intelligence department. At that time, the stronghold will be Elsa Village, so you are the best person to link the two sides. ”
Roddy didn't make Nata the head of the department, because she wasn't a qualified leader, but she was the best enforcer of orders and one of his most loyal subordinates. So there are some things he won't say to the person who actually leads the team, but he will explain to Nata: "Humans and wood elves are different after all, so your mission is not only to assist in the collection of intelligence, but more importantly, to try to avoid humans from causing too serious an impact on Elsa Village." ”
Nata finally understood that he was protecting the wood elves of Elsa Village, and was immediately moved, bowed her head and said, "I will definitely complete the task." ”
"The Intelligence Service is not a violent enforcement unit. But the Department of Field Support has the right to intervene by force in case of emergency... Do it when it's time to do it. You are the strongest in the team. I didn't teach you those things to make you a clerk. ”
Luo Di was quite emotional when he said these words, after all, in his memory, the other party was his teacher.
Nata didn't say much, got up and saluted - this is her usual style, Roddy was used to the silence of the other party, waved his hand and said: "There are still some details, I will send them to you in writing when the time comes." By the way, how is Bringar's language learning now?"
"If I can understand it, if I can't understand it, I'll look it up. ”
She replied very directly, and Roddy smiled a little: "Well, I don't know if these things can be done this year." The next time you go to Rasiman, you should follow along. Seeing other worlds is very helpful for improving your strength. ”
Nata's fingers clenched suddenly, but her voice struggled to remain calm: "Okay. ”
After saying this, Luo Di threw a spar to her as usual: "I just made it, and after using this, it can generate an energy force field in front of you, allowing you to step on it and jump higher." It's nice to have it on a bracer.
The Wood Elf girl carefully held it and put it in her pocket. When I left the lab, I felt that the previous frustration had dissipated most of it, and my heart was full of anticipation of going to Raciman with Roddy...
Roddy, who was sitting alone in the office, sighed secretly. He was not stupid, he used to vaguely feel the temptation of this wood elf, but now, of course, Roddy understands why she likes to run to the magic tower when she has nothing to do. However, Nata's feelings are too restrained, and I'm afraid that if Roddy doesn't take the initiative, she won't be able to express it.
Roddy didn't want to pull it out, but it wasn't the right time to talk about it. War is coming, and the breakdown of the dragon cooperation has made the original sure result confusing, so every time Roddy sees Nata, he can't help but give away a lot of things... It's not that I feel indebted, it's that I want her to be stronger.
The troubled times have come, and only the powerful can have the last laugh.
He always hoped that Nata could keep up with him, after all, for this student who completely inherited his "ranger" experience, Roddy always had a special feeling in it.
But now was not the time for him to think about that. The blow to the prestige of "Elson" brought by Victor is secondary, and the main thing is ... What does Quiao want to do?
He got up and walked to his desk and flipped through the speeches he was going to use for the closing ceremony in the afternoon, but he couldn't read the lines. The Frost Dragon's sudden cancellation of cooperation finally disrupted all his arrangements, and the helplessness and frustration in it were like ink mixed into water, bringing a dark color to his mood.
