Chapter 739
Obviously, this title's effect of increasing one's strength by 100 will have an unimaginable impact on the "magic tentacles". Roddy couldn't help but smile at this, and made various attempts as he walked. When he reached the second floor, he felt that he should meet with Camilla first to discuss the current situation. After all, in addition to thanking her, the great arcanist "Edith" might be able to help her get rid of Elson City. Imprisonment helps.
Using the "Map Bar", Roddy discovered that Camilla was in her own study in the mansion. So he stepped aside and knocked on the door directly.
"who?"
Camilla's voice sounded from inside the house, but she quickly realized that only Rody knocked on the door and she couldn't sense it, so she quickly got up and opened the door.
Rody smiled and prepared to say hello to the "guardian". He was even prepared to answer Nefei's question about staying in Laximan, but when he saw Camilla, his expression suddenly changed.
Although Camilla didn't have much expression on her face, and the reddish eye circles were obviously from crying before, she was also in a very sluggish state, obviously she had suffered some kind of blow.
"I'm back, it's good to be back. I"
"What happened? Someone bullied you?"
Rody frowned. He was sure that this had nothing to do with Naifei's stay in Laximan, after all, he had made it clear in his letter a few days ago. Could it be that something went wrong at the "Magic Exchange Meeting"?
"No, I just..."
Before she could come up with a reason, Rody had already found the answer through the "Map Bar" search. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "What are the people from the 'Holy Meeting' doing here?"
These words completely made Camilla give up resistance. She took a deep breath and turned her head away: "They think this city belongs to the high elves, so they want me to give it away."
"Have you ever interrogated them? They speak badly?"
Rody was not surprised by this request from the "Holy Society", but he immediately guessed the reason for Camilla's depression: after all, Camilla used to be a member of the "Holy Society", and this group of lunatics from the "Holy Society" There is absolutely nothing good to say about seeing her.
The most important thing is... Camilla was deeply influenced by the "Holy Society", and it was difficult to completely get rid of the other party's shadow within two years.
"I didn't ask too many questions, just wait for others to interrogate. Hey? Didn't the others come back with you?"
See the way Camilla tried to change the subject,
Rody felt that there was a serious problem here. He said bluntly: "I came back early because I was afraid that you would be tired alone. So if you encounter any problems, don't play sloppy with me. You are not a guy like us who was killed in the sea of blood. It is normal for you to be soft-hearted and not let go Yes. So you don’t have to go later, just leave the rest to me.”
Rody moved his hands and feet while talking, and smiled sinisterly: "A few bastards ran to Elson City and were arrested and dared to play tricks. At this time, someone has to stand up and tell them how to behave again, right?"
"Puchi!"
Camilla couldn't help being amused by Roddy's funny expression. She covered her mouth and laughed, but tears flowed down her cheeks uncontrollably. The more she laughed, the more tears shed on her face. many…
Camilla was indeed pissed off by those four guys: she was used and abandoned by those guys from the Holy Church, if it wasn't for Rody, she wouldn't have survived at all. As a result, now that this group of people came and were arrested, all kinds of swear words and slanders came out of their mouths.
If Roddy didn't ask anything, she might digest the emotion in a few days. However, now that he looked like he wanted to support himself, it made Camilla relax her heartstrings all of a sudden, and she couldn't help venting her emotions anymore.
After all, the feeling that someone is willing to set up a piece of sky for you is a luxury that Camilla has always longed for but never experienced.
She wiped her tears vigorously, but she wiped more and more. Rody next to him knew that a woman needs comfort at this time. After thinking about it, he decided to open his arms and plan to hug Camilla gently. That's how it was played.
"A total of four people dared to come over to challenge, and I don't know where they got their confidence. The words of this kind of opponent are not worth remembering, just leave it to me to deal with it later."
As a result, before he finished speaking, Camilla threw herself into his arms, holding her hands tightly together, like a drowning person hugging driftwood.
She didn't cry loudly, she just kept crying. Roddy is tall and slightly arched. He only feels the scent on her body is trance-like, because Camilla and Nafie seem to smell the same. When he closed his eyes, he once thought that he was hugging another Nephi in time and space.
After the initial grievance and resentment were vented, Camilla felt much better, but she greedily did not let go... because she knew in her heart that it might be difficult for her to experience this feeling again in the future.
Her heartbeat became a little faster, and her face turned slightly red. Rody's big hand on her back seemed to have a magical heat, making Camilla feel as if she was soaking in warm water, and finally closed her eyes and leaned against his chest.
"Is it better?"
After an unknown amount of time, Rody's words woke her up from that comfortable state. She took a deep breath, left the warm embrace, rubbed her red eyes, lowered her head and said, "I feel much better..."
"Because it's not worth their anger, I think you've lost a lot of weight. Didn't you eat well during this time?"
Luo Di tilted his body, and made a gesture of appraising her on purpose: "Come on, arrange some food for me first, I'm going to vomit all the way here to eat jerky."
"Okay, okay, I've never met any city lord before, I know how hungry I am. My precious daughter was kidnapped and thrown in another continent, I hope you can explain it to me at the dinner table..."
"Well...Nafei has grown up, we have to respect her own wishes, right?" Rody rubbed his hands while looking around: "I'm starving to death, I want to eat meat, a lot of meat!"
Camilla was amused by his appearance, but she was inexplicably happy in her heart because she found that when she talked about Naifei with Roddy, it was like discussing their common daughter. This feeling really made her feel like drinking Like wine, a little dizzy.
"I see those sorcerers are very happy to give speeches. Before they start their lectures tomorrow, I will give a short speech and finish the work. Next, you will preside over the meeting, and I will go and listen to what they have to say."
"no problem."
Camilla followed behind Rody, and the unhappiness caused by the four members of the "Holy Church" had long been forgotten.
As the news spread that "City Lord Elson will return and will give a short speech tomorrow", the mages in the city seemed to remember the absence of the "righteous lord" at this time. But for them, it doesn't matter whether Roddy comes or not. Many of them have already experienced the resources and benefits provided by Elson City very accurately, and all of them just want to continue to listen to the report if it is not Roddy's speech. They are probably not interested in listening to the report before the magic tower report starts.
But for Dominic and others hiding in the city, this means that the opportunity they were waiting for...has finally come.
As a descendant of the High Elf, Dominic knew more about "Elson City" than most people. So he knew very well how powerful the "Guardian" was, and he also understood the power of the "City Lord" in this city.
But in terms of strength, the "Guardian" uses the power of the entire city to fight, which is far from comparable to that of a normal mage. And the "city lord" is just an enhancement of his own strength, no matter how powerful he is, he is no better than a seasoned arcanist.
Therefore, in order to control the city, they must not only control the "Guardian" at the first time, but also kill the "City Lord" in the shortest possible time, because only after the death of the "City Lord", the "Guardian" can identify a new candidate. Inherit control of the city.
And for Elder Dominique who owns the "Ball of Imprisonment", getting Camilla to succumb is a certainty. So his plan is also very simple. When Rody and Camilla are present at the same time, he can get rid of them as quickly as possible.
"It's getting dark, let's go, everyone go to the square, don't stay here all the time."
Dominique's order still sounded like a normal chat, but the arcanists all knew that it meant that they would go to the square to "step on the spot" tonight, familiarize themselves with the terrain in advance and practice spellcasting.
With the surprise attack of twelve arcanists and one elder arcanist, this operation is sure to be a success when the enemy has lost their vigilance!
As night fell, Elson City was still brightly lit. The arrival of the mages further promoted the commercial activities in the city. Even though the kingdom outside the city is in the increasingly cold winter, it is still as warm as spring here. This alone is enough for those caravans who are not willing to travel back and forth in winter to come and station here, so that at this time, the roads leading to various towns outside the city can still be seen rushing.
You only need to walk along the road, so you don't have to worry about getting lost, and you don't have to worry about muddy or soft roads. Improved traffic conditions increase the efficiency of all commercial activities. Now, no matter if it is a mercenary, a caravan or a wandering traveler, as long as they see the smooth "road", they will feel a good impression from the bottom of their hearts.
But for Soderol and others who appeared on the road in the early hours of the morning, the appearance of this straight road is almost equal to the hope of survival.
At this time, they were already in a panic. Even with a spare horse, five horses were exhausted to death due to lack of rest after running around for several days. Now the monsters following behind are still lingering, and they are faster and more unstoppable as Nora expected Yes, because the aura of the Coswar Land Dragon has become unimaginably strong, no matter how fierce the guys are, they all change their faces and avoid it one after another.
Fortunately, the Kosvor Land Dragon is not a monster with unlimited physical strength. It also needs to drink water and eat during the long-distance raid. Otherwise, Soderol and others may not even be able to stop and rest. But even so, their nerves are tense when they sleep now, and their physical strength is getting weaker and weaker.
After all, whoever has such a terrifying monster that chases for hundreds of kilometers will be in a panic.
