Chapter 16 of Crime and Punishment

Chapter Sixteen What to do

On the top floor of the headquarters of the Tide Legion, Roger was curled up in an unusually wide chair, basking in the sun lazily by the window. He threw one leg on the wide office desk, looking up at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking. There were a few high documents piled up on the desk, which seemed to have never been opened.

This office was originally General Wallace, with a small area and a very simple layout. The only advantage is that it is facing well and you can see the sunshine most of the day.

After the meeting that day, Wallace, despite the opposition of his generals, prepared another house for Roger and gave up his office. Roger's family refused to move, and the office reluctantly accepted it. Because the Bauhinia Butterfly reminded Roger that he was the highest commander of the entire Western Front, and it would be criticized if he did not stay at the headquarters of the Legion.

A crisp sound of leather boots came from afar. After receiving Roger's permission, Rose, who looked like frosty, walked in.

Seeing Roger sitting in disgustingly, Mei frowned tightly. She came to her desk and looked at the documents on the desk one by one, but found that Roger had never read these documents.

Mei finally couldn't help but say, "Mr. Roger, you are the highest commander of the 'Tide' Legion. Your current appearance... is really detrimental to the image of the Legion!"

Rogge smiled lazily and said absent-mindedly: "Anyway, I am a legion leader, and even if you don't want to be a nominal, you won't do it! So what does it have to do with the image of the 'Tidal' legion?

Meidi's pretty face was as cold as frosty, and she said coldly: "Mr. Roger! As your adjutant, I know your past glory very well. So the rogue appearance is not suitable for your identity and strength."

As if she was so angry that she was not enough, Roger smiled and said, "My past glory? Doesn't the package include digging down the city of Yunxiao?"

Even if Mei's calmness is good, her face can't help but change slightly.

Roger smiled and continued, "But that was the credit of Lord Alexander. He was indeed worthy of the title of Emperor** God. He actually brought a 50,000 dwarf slave army when he returned to the imperial capital. He was really far-sighted! I dare not steal Lord Alexander's credit in this matter!"

Mei had a blue face and did not answer. She just silently sorted out the documents on the table, held them in her arms and walked out the door.

When she reached the door, Mei suddenly stopped. She did not look back, but just asked softly: "Master Rog, one hundred and fifty-three lives, do you... really bear it that way?"

"Mei, the rules of Emperor* are above everything else. I have no choice."

"But according to the rules of the emperor, you have the right to pardon!"

"The pardon requires sufficient reasons, but now I can't see any reason."

“Isn’t it a reason to save lives?”

Mei still tried to make her last effort, because in a moment, one hundred and fifty-three soldiers would fall on the execution ground.

Roger yawned and said, "The true meaning of nature lies in balance. Less life is an imbalance, and more life is also an imbalance. In my opinion, the 'Tidal' legion is still a long way from restoring balance! There are so many lives now."

It can be seen that the shoulders of the rose knife were trembling slightly. She seemed to want to say something, but at this moment the door opened and Fuluoya Yingying walked in.

"How am I? Don't forget, you just said disrespect to Roger. This is definitely a violation of the Emperor's rules, right?" Fuluya's green eyes began to flash malicious flames: "Your skin is so good, he must be willing to take off your clothes, hang it up and whip it hard!"

Mei Wei was panicked and then sneered: "Where is the evidence?"

The little goblin laughed and said, "I'm a magician! Evidence? Isn't it easy?" She drew a few magic talismans in the air and then recited the spell.

A brown light lit up in the corridor, and a voice came from the light: "It seems that you are one of Roger's many women..." Although the voice was a little erratic, it was still possible to tell that it was Mei's voice.

Froya was proud, she snorted, picked a frivolous mark on Mei's chin with her fingers, and then she left.

Roger was reading the book and was intriguingly reading it when he suddenly heard a noise outside the window, which was endless. He closed the book and thoughtful.

Just at this moment, Mei walked in, placed a document on Roger's desk, and said, "Mr. Roger, you must read this document."

"What content, please tell me briefly!"

"We sent several teams of reconnaissance cavalry to reconnaissance the defense situation around Soratu, the Delaware Empire, and the camera harassed the other party's supply line. However... our two teams of reconnaissance cavalry fell into the trap of each other and lost a total of thirty-two reconnaissance cavalry."

Roger nodded and said, "It seems that the opponent's commander has some skills to be able to defeat the reconnaissance cavalry of the 'Tide' Legion to this level!"

The reconnaissance cavalry of the "Tide" Legion consists of twenty cavalry, all of which are made up of veterans with many battles and rich experience. They come and go like the wind, have strong combat power, and are extremely difficult to deal with. This time, only eight of the two teams of reconnaissance cavalry escaped back, and the Tide Legion suffered a great fall.

Mei said again: "General Wallace is preparing to launch a large-scale retaliatory attack on the Delaware Empire. He is going to lead five thousand light cavalry to attack and knock out the supply points around Soratu. General Wallace wants to ask you when you have time. He is coming to discuss the plan for this operation with you."

Roger waved his hand and said, "Let him fight, as long as he doesn't violate the imperial ** rules, you don't need to discuss it with me."

Mei wanted to say something, but when Roger was focused on reading the book, he had to retreat.

Roger was reading the experience of the abyss demon Grarifa, who had just fallen into the abyss, relying on his instinct to hunt other demons between blood and lava. His heart suddenly moved, and his eyes passed through the pages, the floor, and the hard rock floor...

His eyes even traveled through the space!

But facing the gorgeous colors on the endless deep background, Roger was really aimless. He had lost his connection with the world of death forever, the world that once made him afraid, curious, confused, and excited, and the Fengyue who turned from a skeleton into a black demon lotus and white wings.

Feng Yue...

The fat man once had a feeling that Feng Yue had arrived in this world. But no matter how he called, he never received any response. Even at the most critical moment of his life, Feng Yue did not respond to his call.

Fengyue, what happened to you?

Roger looked at the endless turbulence of space, and never felt so confused for a moment.

The silver light in Roger's eyes gradually faded away. He came to the window and looked at the light cavalry gathering in the square outside, and suddenly felt a sense of fatigue. The power was so powerful that he could easily decide whether one hundred and fifty-three warriors were alive or dead. However, the power was so fragile that no matter how high the power was, it would become worthless if he left his subordinates who were willing to obey.

The fat man smiled bitterly. He could even control the life and death of thousands of people, but could not find a signpost to the world of death.

Roger looked south from afar.

One day he really fought back to the south and stepped into the Pope's temple. So what? Can he defeat the great prophecy? Can he resurrect Elyssis and Orpherok? Even if everything is as he wishes, how should he treat the princess of the Demon Realm and the Golden Lion in the Unswerving Demon Realm?

Is this really the ending he wants? Roger felt his hands trembling.

Should we pay more attention to the people around us as Ajiani said? Suddenly, Roger remembered the night he was killed by the God of Death. The moment before his death, in addition to the black earth flames, there were also a pair of silver eyes.

Roger suddenly had a sense of intuition that in Feng Yue, he had been ignoring some things, some very important things. At this moment, his fingertips seemed to recall the soft touch of Feng Yue’s wings that day.

In Roger's stunned eyes, a white feather slowly fell in front of him. He reached out to take it, but found that the feathers passed through his palms and turned into pieces. He rubbed his eyes, but the air was empty, as if nothing had happened.

Roger closed his eyes for a long time, and when he opened it again, his eyes were already silver. He took a deep breath and looked at the strange scene in the room in disbelief.

There were silver light bands lingering in the sky, and there was a faint sound of music constantly echoing. It sounded like the affectionate girl's confiding when the night was at its peak. Roger heard his heartbeat again, and the heartbeat kept widening and finally turned into a low drum sound.

The drum beats gradually became louder, and the bass sounded trembling with everything in the room.

When the drum sounded, white feathers flashing with soft light fell down in the sky, just like heavy snow that only appeared in a dream.

Roger reached out to pick it up, but every piece of feather passed through his palms and then turned into countless pieces before it landed.

In the white feathers all over the sky, Feng Yue, wearing a black demon lotus, and holding the God of Death's sickle, appeared and faintly appeared. She turned slightly and actually lifted a corner of the mask...

Roger's chest heated, and his mind roared! His hands trembled forward, but when his fingertips touched a piece of white feather falling, the music, the light band, the white feather, the drum beat, everything disappeared.

Roger calmed down. The silver light in his eyes suddenly flourished. In an instant, he used his mental power to detect the surrounding space several times, but he found nothing. There was no magic power, fighting spirit or some unknown power left in the room. Therefore, it was impossible for someone to set up an illusion.

Could it be that everything is like real and illusion, just a real dream?

In an instant, all the memories about Feng Yue passed by Roger's heart like thunder and lightning.

A faint figure jumped out of the headquarters of the "Tidal" Legion, looked around, and then flashed like a ghost several times, then appeared in a dark alley in the distance, and then slowly emerged. The man in a gray robe looked back and was sure that no one was following him, so he walked away.

In fact, he was too cautious. Not to mention that cavalry were gathering in the square in front of the headquarters of the Tide Legion, and there was a lot of chaos everywhere. Even if the entire headquarters strengthened its alert several times, he had a way to sneak out quietly.

After all, he is a killer over four hundred years old.

Seus raised his high collar and covered his elegant face.

"If Lord Roger meets Lord Fengyue again, he will definitely pester him and never give up until he understands it. Hehe, in this way, Lord Fengyue should not dare to show up in Silde City, right? As long as she doesn't come, the labour will not fall on my old man's head! Haha, haha! I want to fight with me..." The more Seus thought about it, the more proud he became, and his feet became more and more brisk.

On the northern border of the Aslofik Empire, ice and snow cover the earth all year round. Crossing the endless snowfields is the legendary extreme ice ocean, the source of all cold.

The extreme ice ocean is a thick ice cap that has never melted. According to legend, at the center of the extreme ice ocean, the ice cap can reach thousands of meters thick! However, no one can confirm the authenticity of this legend.

At this moment, four figures stood on this rarely visited ice cap. Three of them were wearing black robes, and the other was wrapped in the dark gray windbreaker that was the most common in the north. They stood quietly, as if waiting for something.

Not far from the heads of the four people, there was a giant dragon floating.

A small crack suddenly appeared on the ice sheet in the distance. With the sound of firing, the spider web-like crack spread rapidly, and in a blink of an eye it stretched to nearly a hundred meters in a radius.

A gloomy roar sounded in the sky, and at that moment, it seemed that the entire ice cap was trembling! Suddenly another thunder sounded, and a water column that was dozens of meters thick rose into the sky with countless huge ice cubes!

The wind and moon, wearing the demon lotus, slowly rose in the water column. She raised the Grim Reaper's sickle with her right hand, and a sea dragon that was dozens of meters long hung on the huge blade! The sea dragon rolled in extreme pain and struggled, but she could not get rid of the Grim Reaper's sickle that was almost completely immersed in its jaw!

The sea dragon's body twitched wildly and swung, and its long dragon's tail would draw huge ice cubes of several meters in the air and knock it into ice chips all over the sky!

The Fengyue Demon Lotus spread its wings and flew to the four people in a blink of an eye. The Death Scythe in her hand danced silently for a week, and the dying sea dragon fell heavily on the ice cap. It was finally able to roar, and its huge body kept twisting, and the scattering dragon tail slashed the ice cap to pieces and flew.

The sea dragon rolled over and was about to stand up when an irresistible force came from each of the four claws, stretching its body completely.

The four figures each carried a short dragon claw of the sea dragon, slowly took off into the air and flew into the distance.

Gregory in the sky flew to Feng Yue, and as usual, he took a few flatteries, and then carefully tried to find out something: "Master, he was calling you all the time just now, I don't know what's wrong. Look..."

Feng Yue glanced at it coldly. Gregory felt guilty and immediately covered up: "You caught the sea dragon under the ice just now, but I was just afraid that you wouldn't hear it. Master! I swear in the name of the Dragon God, and I have no other intentions!"

Feng Yue turned her head and looked into the distance. She was silent and said for a long time: "He can't die, let's go."
