Chapter 225 Real Victory

Latest website: "First Elder Armando is a stubborn conservative. In his eyes, the Holy Fire is everything. No matter how many people die, it is not as important as it."

"The same is true for the elders. They can maintain stability in times of turmoil, but they can hinder development in times of advancement."

Wang's voice was heavy.

"And there is no essential difference between me and them. If the Holy Fire Plan fails, I can only choose to abandon the outer city."

"Trolian will be severely damaged by this, and the number of people who will eventually die from this is far more than 30 million, maybe 50 million, or even 70 million."

"We will go back a hundred years to where we were in 1225."

"All the efforts and sacrifices over the past hundred years have been in vain."

"In order to prevent such a tragedy from happening, I created the Holy Fire Project."

"In the ancient human era, there were countless Fire King cities. Under the spread of black mist, they overturned one by one. The former human kingdom became the lair of monsters, and the strong men who once protected mankind have become our nightmares."

"And in the ashes of the extinguished holy fire, there is the seed of the holy fire."

"As long as we throw the Holy Fire Seed into the Holy Fire, we can obtain its source."

"As long as there is enough source support, the Holy Fire will return to normal and even become stronger."

"However, these former Fire King cities are all in the extremely dangerous depths of darkness."

"Beside every sacred fire seed, there is a monster who was once called a king."

"The Holy Fire Seed is an extremely special source of matter. The source it possesses has a strong attraction to monsters. They will devour the Holy Fire Seed with the source and become more powerful."

"Only by killing the monster that devours it can you obtain the Holy Fire Seed."

"Just like killing the Serpent of the Abyss to get the Blood of Ancient Ross, killing the Twilight Giant to get the Eternal Mist."

The king stood up and looked up at the golden holy fire.

The surging flame is the only force that can fight against the terrifying darkness.

"The Holy Fire Project is our expedition against the dark world."

"Star City is just the first step."

"We will move all the way west, crush all the monsters that stand in our way, occupy the Storm Pass, which was reached by Trollian, the most powerful six hundred years ago, and use it as a base to launch an expedition to the Dead Land Continent in the north. Capture Tasnia Star City and seize its sacred fire seed."

The king's eyes were burning with golden flames, which were clearly visible under the holy fire that reached the sky.

"Rhode, do you understand? This is our Holy Fire plan."

"A plan that sounds extremely crazy, and not a single elder will agree to it."

Horus nodded and said: "Not only the conservatives, but also the radicals don't have many people on our side."

"However, we still gathered many fellow travelers, including Lord Theodore."

Rhodes was also very shocked. There was a fear in his heart of facing the giant, but he also had a strong sense of excitement. Blood was flowing rapidly in his blood vessels, and his heart was beating rapidly, as if something was about to break out of the ground.

"us……"

His voice trembled, and he paused to calm his tone.

"Is there any chance of success?"

Wang smiled and said: "I don't know what our chances are of winning, but I want human beings to walk proudly on this land without any more forced hesitation, unending tragedy, helplessness forced by the situation, and unavoidable pain. and sacrifice.”

"Soldiers can hold their heads high and guard their homes, and civilians can choose their lives freely."

Horus added: "Even if the Holy Fire Project cannot be completely successful in the end due to various reasons, we will still be able to gain a larger living space and can move people from the outer city there."

"In this way, it is also an option for us to proactively reduce the intensity of the holy fire and narrow the scope of the holy fire after making various preparations."

For a moment, Rhodes smiled.

"I understand, give it a try, no need to worry."

The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

A wonderful sense of tacit understanding arose, as if they had been comrades on the same road for many years, and there were many words that no need to be said.

"The Evil God"

——

Afterwards, Horus sent Rhodes to the Supreme War Department.

The king continued to guard the sacred fire sacrificial site.

The Holy Fire has been moving frequently recently, so he must always guard the Holy Fire and consume his own strength to keep the fire running.

In order to avoid everyone being suspicious of Wang's solitary life, he found Lilith.

This is a beautiful and gorgeous woman who is very vain and longs for status. She happily becomes the king's woman and uses this to dominate everywhere.

In the early years, there was some restraint, but as the structure of the Holy Fire became more and more endangered, the king became more and more reclusive and ignored the affairs of the country. Coupled with the slowdown of Trorian's expansion, the pressure increased, and internal conflicts began to become acute.

Lilith became an excellent shield, and her vanity and arrogance made her never mention the king's neglect of her. She tried her best to pretend that the king was addicted to her beauty and went around everywhere.

Wang's indulgence towards her also proves this point from the side.

Many people hated her deeply, and many who admired the king were unwilling to mention this woman.

But as the king of Trolian, he only has one lover, and it is difficult to criticize him from this aspect.

Only now did Rhodes understand that the reason why Wang lived in seclusion and became incomprehensible from a powerful leader was not because he was addicted to the harem, but because he spent a lot of energy to maintain the operation of the Holy Fire and devoted himself to promoting the Holy Fire plan.

Naturally, it is impossible to hold on to authority as firmly as before.

Rhodes was determined to complete the development of Fanxing Town so that Wang could successfully implement the Holy Fire Plan.

There is no doubt that this will bring him huge amounts of divinity.

The huge amount of divinity will also bring him more resurrection stones, and he will no longer have to worry about survival.

Not only that, he can also make more soul fuel and ignite more stars.

Divinity can even directly kill intruders in moments of crisis. This is how Rhodes survived the first two crises.

It can be said that this is the foundation of his life.

good!

Rhodes felt his blood burning.

I am determined to be the mayor of Fanxing Town!

——

Horus told him that due to resistance from all sides, the resources available for this campaign were not many, but there were benefits.

If Rhodes can eliminate monsters, purify pollution, and rekindle the fire of guardianship at a relatively low cost, he can successfully occupy Fanxing Town, establish a new order, and turn this land into a territory that humans can live in.

The views of many people in the royal city will change, and the implementation of the Holy Fire Plan will be much smoother.

——

At the Supreme Military War Department, Rhodes met the First Defense Chief Lin.

He is also a member of Project Sacred Fire.

Rhodes asked curiously: "Your Excellency Dalin, you also support the Holy Fire Project, isn't the king in the majority?"

A smile appeared on Dalin's serious face like a knife, and his gray temples made him look very vicissitudes of life.

"Little Rhodes, the Military War Department is a very large and complex organization. In addition to me, there are also the Second Chief of Defense, the First Commander, the commanders of the major corps, the guardians, and the elders also have the right to consult. My Although our status is high, we cannot make decisions with just one word. We need to discuss many things through combat meetings.”

"Oh." Rhodes understood, "Why don't we create a dictatorial mechanism?"

Dalin smiled and said: "Little Rhodes, your thoughts are very dangerous. No one can guarantee that he will always be right. Navigating on this dark sea, every choice faces infinite unknowns. No one can easily bear such mental pressure."

"Moreover, a person who can make everyone obey unconditionally must have two characteristics."

"First, he has the ability to convince everyone."

"Second, he has the ability to convince everyone."

Dalin sighed softly.

"The previous king could do these two things, but, you know."

"There is no one else besides this. People with such abilities are not strong enough to convince the public. People with strong strength do not have such details in all aspects."

“The few people who have both qualities are unwilling to implement a system where only one person speaks.”

"Of course, this refers to the royal city, and there are many such people in many areas, legions, and battle groups."

Dalin's gray eyes looked at him, with a strange smile in his eyes.

"Little Rhodes, don't think about being this kind of person. You are not yet seventeen years old this year, and you are the youngest conqueror in history. Like the king, I don't know why you can take this responsibility, but we also believe in Xi Lord Odo’s choice.”

"I will appoint Molly to be your adjutant. She has rich experience. Although you are the nominal commander, you have to follow her opinions on many things."

The cold female adjutant stood next to Dalin, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and nodded to Rhodes seriously.

Rhodes responded with a slightly embarrassed smile.

During the few days he spent at the Military War Department, Molly helped him understand various defense matters, and he learned a lot.

This female assistant was tall and beautiful, but she was very serious and cold, just like her former head teacher, which made Rhodes very restrained.

Dalin paused and said again.

"But genius in history cannot be measured by common sense. Age is no obstacle. Alan already served as a guardian as a student when he was sixteen years old. He became one of the King's Four Knights as soon as he graduated from Goldworth Academy."

"Therefore, you still have absolute discretion and can order Molly to do anything for you, but..."

Dalin looked at him seriously.

"My child, please use this power carefully. The real victory is not how many monsters are killed, but the fighting spirit in our hearts."
