An’s thing is just a small episode for Rhodes. Not long after that, he will face the most important thing of the year - that is, he will follow Lydia to participate in the Dragon Soul Sacred Classic held in the Land of Light. This is the highlight for Rhodes. He will meet the rumored successor of the Dragon Soul of Light, and...... This is also the best time for Rhodes to personally experience the current changes in the Land of Light.

The Dragon Soul Sacred Book is an annual ceremony held to thank the Dragon Soul of Light for the protection of this continent. This is the official statement of the Kingdom of Light, but in fact, players who know the inside story are very clear that this is the trick of the Lord of Mun who came up with the disgusting Light Council. Because the Council of Light has been spared no effort to deliberately erase the role of the Dragon Soul of Light in various parts of this continent, hoping that people can gradually forget the Dragon Soul of Light, so that they can replace it. However, this move of the Lord of Mun made the Council of Light lose all the way. The Dragon Soul of Dragon Soul once a year completely in vain, which makes the Council of Light very angry. Every year,

They are all working hard to instill the people's dragon souls of light are not important to them. Perhaps it has created this land, but it is our humans who build homes and a better life, so there is no need to respect an illusory existence so much. And when they wiped the pictures on this paper with an eraser, the Duchy of Mun will come in from it and use the grand dragon soul ceremony to tell the people that the reason why they can have a peaceful and peaceful life in front of them is entirely because the protection of the dragon souls of light covers this continent. You must remember to be grateful and know how to respect your patron saint.

This made the light parliament so angry that it was itchy, but there was nothing we could do. The reason was that the financial aid of the Duchy of Mun was essential for the light.

Although the Land of Light is three times that of the Duchy of Mun in terms of territory, from the financial perspective, the fiscal revenue of the Land of Light is less than that of the Duchy of Mun in terms of territory. Of course, this does not mean that the Land of Light is very poor. You should know that among the three major families in the Duchy of Mun, only the Shania family can be considered rich in the world. However, in the country of Light, in addition to the five major consortiums, there are many families in the country of Light that are also rich in the country. If we only look at the total wealth, the Land of Light is almost five times that of the Duchy of Mun.

But... the money and the power center of the Kingdom of Light are not related to the same slap, but the private property belonging to those consortiums.

Although the Council of Light has the right to collect the property of these consortiums, in fact they dare not do so at all. The politicians in the Land of Light are supported by various consortiums, and they need a large amount of funds to go to various parts of the Land of Light to speak, promote, and win over the people to vote for themselves. This money comes from the support of major consortiums. In this way, the politicians in the Land of Light naturally cannot collect their money. Not only that, they must also reduce the tax on these large consortiums to please them. As for the reduction, they have to shave their hair from other little lambs.

However, the little sheep's hair is limited after all, and if it is too much, it is worried that it will cause a civil unrest, so the Council of Light can only be hung so undying. It is precisely because of this that the money from the Principality of Mun is very important to them. Although in name, the money from the Principality of Mun is a loyalty to the Dragon of Light, the Dragon Soul of Light has become a puppet of the Council of Light. Then the money of the Dragon Soul itself must not be used. As the Council of Light, which is subordinate to the Dragon Soul, it is "justice" to use this money.

However, the Duchy of Mun didn't care about this. Anyway, their main purpose was to sweep the face of the Council of Light and consolidate the position of the Dragon Soul of Light on the continent. Just spend money every year to make the Council of Light uncomfortable. Anyway, they have money, are they still afraid of this?

For major consortiums, they don’t care whether you want to fight for the status of the Dragon Soul of Light or the face of the Sweeping Council. As long as they can make them pay no or less, even if the devil comes to rule this country, they will firmly applaud and warmly welcome them with both hands and line up to greet them.

As long as they have money to make money, they don’t care about anything.

Participating in the Dragon Soul Temple is naturally a big deal for Rhodes, and of course his subordinates are inseparable from going with him. After all, this is also considered a "travel abroad". Although the Country of Light has not had a good reputation in the Principality of Mun, going to another country is always full of freshness, not to mention that this is the Dragon Soul Sacred Book. Participants can even see the successor of the Dragon Soul of Light with their own eyes and receive blessings from the other party. This is naturally very eager to obtain the qualifications of the Dragon Soul of Light for Mun people who have always admired the Dragon Soul of Light.

Originally, Rhodes did not want to bring many people to him, because he knew very well that this year's Land of Light was in a turmoil, and the four-year general election was about to come. According to the news he had received before, because of the suppression of the reformists, the Duchy of Moon now has a very poor reputation in the country of Light. Not only that, almost every member of the Council of Light will criticize the Principal of Moon in public in a fierce tone, so that he can gain the support of the people. In this case, it is conceivable what kind of treatment the delegation of the Principal of Moon will encounter when they go to the State of Light. Of course, Rhodes does not want his subordinates to cause trouble there. So in the end, he only decided on three candidates.

As Litia's sister and a member of the royal family, Lige was naturally accompanying him this time. The other person who would follow Rhode to participate in the Dragon Soul Book was Anne. Originally, Rhode didn't want to take Anne, but considering that Anne could only be around him for this period of time, it would take half a month or even longer to go to the Kingdom of Light to participate in the Dragon Soul Book. If Anne becomes the same during her absence, all her efforts will be wasted. Therefore, for caution, Rhode finally decided to take Anne to the Kingdom of Light to participate in the Dragon Soul Book.

As for Christie and Labis, they naturally could not travel with each other this time. Rhodes knew that his hatred value in the country of Light was not low, and neither of them had the ability to protect themselves. Taking the country of Light would only cause them to be involved in the whirlpool, so in the end, he decided to leave the two in the fortress.

The other person is Marlene, whom Rhode wants her to stay, but he has to pass through it.

Although Marin did not receive generous rewards from Lydia at the previous celebration banquet, her political status in the Principal of Moon did not decline. This time, as a representative of the Shania family, she went to participate in the Dragon Soul Sacred Book with Lydia. In fact, Rhodes did not want her to go because the land of atonement is in trouble, and the abnormal movements of the Dragon Kingdom in the Dark Night are also worrying. If Marin can sit firmly in the land of atonement, then it would be better. But if Marin leaves... But Rhodes can't make the decision on this matter.

Fortunately, the Land of Atonement is not just an empty shell like before. After a period of adaptation, the students of the academy brought by Marlene quickly became familiar with their new identity. The enthusiasm and vitality of young people also erupted completely at this time. Under their hands, the affairs of the Land of Atonement began to become more and more organized. Therefore, even if Marlene left for a period of time, the fortress would not have much change. However, at this time, Rhodes was more concerned about the problem of government affairs. If the Dragon Kingdom of Dark Night really had any abnormal movements, then there must be someone in his territory who could suppress the place - fortunately, there was also a canary to take over.

Although this time, the names of Little Bubble Gum and Canary were listed on Lydia's invitation list, and Rhode also understood what the purpose of this archangel invitation was, but unfortunately, neither of these two people could leave their territory. Unless the system determined that the entire Kingdom of Light was his territory, these two ladies would never expect to travel to the Kingdom of Light in their entire lives.

However, Canary and Little Bubble Gum don't seem to care about this. They originally hated the Kingdom of Light and did not go if they could. Naturally, they had no objection to it.

And besides that, there was one more thing that surprised Rhodes.

That is, when he received an invitation from Lydia to officially invite him to participate in the Dragon Soul Holy Book, the task system that was inactive and inactive once again jumped out a new task prompt.

[Terminal Construction Mission - Between Light and Light: The sacred festival you are about to go to will be the center of the surging clouds in this continent. In that dazzling light, can you find a way to decide your future......]

For Rhodes, the task in front of him is simply inexplicable. He has seen many various tasks for so many years, but it is rare like this strange construction task in front of him. Generally, in the Dragon Soul Continent, most of the tasks released by the system have goals and directions. For example, where players should go to find something to whom, or go to kill someone or protect who to go wherever they go, or collect something, etc. These tasks have clear goals, but this [between light and light] mission is completely confusing. Except for knowing that this task is to go to the Dragon Soul Holy Book by yourself to complete, everything else is a mystery. This made Rhodes feel very curious and surprised, because he had never received such a task before.

However, when Rhodes saw the reward for this mission, he suddenly seemed calm.

[Task Reward: Can unlock one Phantom Guard in an extra specification.]

Just one line of words, there is no experience bonus or special skills, but it is the best reward for Rhodes.

Originally, when he got the Mystery Ball, Rhode could unlock three Phantom Guards. However, because his level was too low at that time, he could only unlock two people in the end, and the third Phantom Guard was hidden by ghosts. However, Rhode didn't think much about this at that time, because the appearance of Little Bubble Gum and Canary was an extra surprise, and the performance of the two later also satisfied Rhodes, so he never thought about the remaining Phantom Guards again. In any case, Rhodes' view, as long as he had enough level, unlocking the third Phantom Guard was a natural thing.

But I didn't expect that now, he actually has an opportunity to unlock the Phantom Guard with special specifications?

Extra-specification unlock means that this is not within the three places limited by the Mystery Ball. If this task can be completed, then the extra-specification unlocks a Phantom Guard, and after your level reaches it, you can unlock another Phantom Guard. In this way... Think about it, there are several powerful people under the Dragon Soul Continent, such as the three archangels under the Dragon Soul of Light and the four demon generals of the Dragon Night Kingdom. Can you also create a Four Heavenly King or something?

Of course, since he is the Four Heavenly Kings, he must have a fifth person.........Rod has decided at this moment that no matter how harsh the conditions of the mission are, he must complete this mission and receive the reward for the mission. Although Marin and Lijie cooperated well with him, they lacked some forward-looking and unique perspectives as players. Now Rod doesn't have much time to cultivate and train his subordinates. He urgently hopes to find partners and helpers who can cooperate with him in the shortest time and can also understand and see through the enemy's intentions. Under this "quick completion" requirement, Phantom Guard is naturally the best choice.

This time the Dragon Soul Holy Book is the best opportunity to realize Rhode's wish.

Howling Gorge.

The cold wind surging through the towering cliffs, mixed with snowflakes swept towards the whole world, wrapping around. Rhode walked up the mountainside, narrowed his eyes, and looked at the light of fire not far away in front of him. I have to say that this time Lydia's invitation was indeed very ingenious. She did not ask Rhode and others to go to the Golden City. On the contrary, she invited Rhode and others to go to the Howling Gorge, set out from here, and go to the Kingdom of Light to participate in the Dragon Soul Holy Classic.

"Why are we coming to this ghost place, the commander?"

Anne was carrying a golden shield on her back and yawning boredly looking at the surrounding scenery. If it was sunny now, she could still see the beautiful scenery at the foot of the mountain. But now, under the howling wind and snow, there was only a vast white area around her and nothing else could be seen. Why did Lydia choose here?

Rhode just raised his eyebrows when Anne's inquiry, but did not answer. Rhode didn't know why Lydia chose this place. Players don't know much about the Howling Gorge. Even Rhode, who is a walking library, is not very clear about the situation here. Because this is a forbidden area of ​​the Moon royal family, few players can be allowed to enter on weekdays. Even Rhode, who has won reputation to worship in the Duchy of Moon, has never entered here. Among players, it is rumored that only players of a certain profession can enter Hu after gaining a certain reputation.

The Swordsman. If others want to break in without authorization, they will be attacked by the War Angels Legion. Although in the game, there are not no players who are afraid of death and want to break in, they are not spared from being killed by the War Angels Legion. Not only that, their reputation in the Duchy of Mun also fell to hostility in an instant. After a few unlucky people tried the method with their own hands, no one would foolishly choose to go here to see what was going on. According to only a few players who have entered the Howling Gorge, some secrets of the Duchy of Mun should be hidden here, but they don’t know what it is.

But for now, this is not a problem he would want to investigate. Looking at the light fluttering in the wind and snow not far away, Rhode stepped over.

Soon, a majestic and huge stone building appeared in front of everyone. It was built along the mountain, and the hard curves and lines on the cliff outline the appearance of this huge castle. Even in the storm of the wind and snow, you can vaguely see the bright lights everywhere in the castle, a dazzling scene.

When Rod and others walked out of the carriage and came to the gate of the castle, they heard a "creaking" sound. The thick and dark door slowly opened. Then, two maids walked out of it. Seeing the arrival of Rod and others, their eyes lit up. They quickly walked up and bowed to everyone. Faced with their salute, Rod also nodded, then took out Lydia's invitation letter and handed it over. Then, a maid took the invitation letter, opened it and took a closer look. Then, she stretched out her right hand and placed the ring on her index finger on the invitation letter. Soon, a light blue light flashed from it. Then the maid took back her hand, and she respectfully handed the invitation letter back to Rod, and then spoke.

"Welcome to the city of Purple Lily, Sir Rhodes, please come with me. Your Highness has been waiting for a long time."

“Wooah………………”

When the heavy door was closed behind everyone and isolated the howling wind and snow outside, Anne couldn't help but scream when she saw the decoration of the magnificent castle in front of her. Not only Anne, but even Rod and Lijie were staring at everything in front of her in surprise.

If the impression of Golden City is unparalleled luxury, then the feeling that the Purple Lily City now gives people is more full of magical colors. On the tall dome of several meters, several silver-white magical balls are quietly suspended in the air, emitting soft light, illuminating everything in front of you. On the smooth wall, you can occasionally see magic beams soaring into the sky, as if following an unknown frequency fluctuation, jumping and flickering on the wall.

And at this moment, a cold, but familiar voice came from everyone.

"Welcome to the City of Purple Lily, Sir Rhode, it's been a long time since we met."

Hearing this voice, Rhode was stunned for a moment, then he turned his head. Soon, Rhode saw a young girl with black hair and a harp in her arms walking towards him quietly. Her black and white eyes were staring at him, revealing a look of dissatisfaction.
