Chapter 576: Gold and Silver Mountain (First Update)
So when Roddy's party entered Elson, at least half of the city's population spontaneously gathered around to cheer and celebrate the team's victory. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info even the floating tower came over to sow the petals of flowers flying all over the sky. The soldiers sang loudly, and the joy of victory in the war was like a glass of mellow wine, which was endlessly evocative.
Roddy knew that he had been too low-key before, not to mention the Karen Kingdom, and even the people of Evta rarely heard his name. More than half of the civilians had never heard of his previous exploits - and after this victory, Roddy understood... It's time to stand up for yourself.
Since he is going to lead Ivota forward, he must be the center of attention for everyone and make them realize that they are powerful and invincible!
Feelings of admiration and adoration are creeping in, and that's exactly what Roddy needs. The grand welcome ceremony was just an appetizer, and under the guidance of someone who cares, he took the team that followed the expedition to the city square, and took Sodrol and the cavalry captain as the representative, and personally came to the stage to award them the medal of "Guardian Knight"!
This medal is not conferred on the title of "knight", but simply honor. But just when the onlookers thought this was the end, he threw a bombshell: each "Guardian Knight" was rewarded with at least 100 gold coins!
It's not a blank check, it's real money - Roddy had Camilla prepare three days in advance, just so that most of Elson City could witness the moment...
So all the spectators watching the ceremony watched as a transport ship from Elson City slowly sailed into the venue and pulled a whole boatload of gold and silver coins over.
Due to the scarcity of gold coins, most of the 10,000 gold coins were eventually calculated as silver coins and distributed to the soldiers, and the visual impact of this whole shipload of currency when stacked together was indescribable...
A real mountain of gold and silver.
In particular, Luo Di also asked people to count the gold and silver coins in person, and personally handed over bags of gold and silver coins to the "guardian knights" who were awarded medals one by one - each soldier took one less and even three in the pockets full of coins.
And Roddy did not forget to let seven or eight people take turns on the stage, and in front of the whole audience, he slowly told the amazing record of these soldiers who were brave and fearless, recaptured the fortress several times, and killed thousands of orcs.
"Evtar Blade!"
"You are our glory!"
"Orc Reaper!"
When Sodrore came to the stage to give a short speech, all kinds of nicknames had been shouted out by the people, although many of them were pre-arranged "nurseries", but most of the people had already learned about the strength of this general through Camilla's propaganda, and at this time, they all followed and shouted in the face of the general who really guarded their safety.
The onlookers were not impatient at all from beginning to end, and they swallowed their saliva while quietly watching all the soldiers receive their rewards.
In this regard, Luo Di is extremely satisfied in his heart.
The impact of this award ceremony is far-reaching. Most of the people who have been awarded medals have been nobles, but now they have won huge bonuses and honors as soldiers, which has given the commoners a very different political atmosphere from other cities...
Roddy then made a brief speech. He didn't talk about any fake big empty content, but directly admitted the fact that he led the team to kill the army of 100,000 undead and designed to kill Augustine!
This is also a moment of historical significance.
All the speculation was personally admitted by Roddy, and the titles of "the strongest lord", "the strongest prime minister", "invincible" and so on were completely implemented, which was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for all the people of Elson City and even Evta. The group of people who were still suspicious in their hearts breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted the slogan "Long live the city lord" together in the cheers...
Amid the cries of thousands of people, Roddy and the soldiers slowly left the field. The soldiers returned to the barracks, and Roddy stepped on the transport ship and returned to the lord's mansion with Camilla and the others.
As soon as he stepped onto the transport ship, Nefi's figure swooped up like the wind and jumped directly into Roddy's arms. Roddy smiled and lifted her up and spun around a few times, but when he was about to put it down, he found that the little girl was unwilling to live or die, so he simply let her ride on his neck with both hands, and Nephie giggled, his eyes swept around, and the corners of his mouth were almost pulled to the sky.
Camila persuaded her on the side but couldn't persuade her, she knew that Roddy couldn't pet Nefi, so she could only talk to Roddy, whose hairstyle was messed up by Nefi, about the current battle situation.
"Sauron's troops went to Bergen, and now they're heading east across the border?"
When he learned the news, Roddy didn't turn his head for a while... History has been completely messed up, the invasion of the orcs has ended before it has even begun, and the army of Sauron, as the absolute main force, has escaped from the border of the kingdom through the cracks - Roddy has to admire this guy for his courage, even if he changes himself, it is estimated that the final choice is nothing more than that.
And if Sauron's team wants to survive, it is best to be in the middle of the borders of several countries. It is easy for this kind of "three regardless" zone to hide tens of thousands of people. It is estimated that even if he comes to Karen from time to time to have an autumn breeze, Charles II is absolutely helpless.
"We can't control them now, and then we can solve the affairs in the territory, and there are still bigger challenges waiting for us. ”
Camila was a little stunned when she heard this: Isn't it a bigger challenge to deal with the orc attack and the crisis of the dead?
She suddenly thought of something, but she didn't dare to confirm whether it was true or not, but Roddy had already smiled and turned to greet Houdini and the others, and the doubts in her heart could only be swallowed back into her stomach.
As the group traveled on the transport, Roddy and Houdini glanced at the map bar as they talked to Houdini about the lethality of the dammed lake—as the crowd had dispersed, Tevelin's party was quietly entering the city through the North Gate, where it was the least numerous, and was placed in a separate area led by soldiers.
The residences in this part of the city are located in the most deserted part of the outer city, and the reason why Roddy arranged this is to temporarily isolate these Tevelins. Although they were once humans, the changes in their appearance and stature are not acceptable to ordinary humans, and if they are allowed to mix with civilians now, it will definitely lead to conflict.
It's not hard to get them into human society, and there are many ways for Roddy to gain the ability to disguise themselves as normal humans. But what Roddy has to do next is to keep brainwashing them, as long as they believe that they are just "slightly special" human beings, they will eventually be able to integrate perfectly into the territorial system under their rule! )
