Chapter 135 Slap in the face!
"Baron Leon..." Roddick sneered, "I'm just thinking of you. As a nobleman, how can you accept a traitor as a follower?"
Traitor? The corners of Concordia's eyes jumped, and a sharp look flashed through her eyes.
One of his hands was clenched into a fist, and because of the force, the joints made a crisp sound.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense!
Roddick's ridicure on the corners of his lips is getting stronger and stronger. He has a close relationship with the Colinworth family, and has a close relationship with Zagu, who was once defeated by Leon.
Three days of waiting made him full of fire. Now the fire is going to be vented: "Concordia, do you still want to challenge me? Don't talk about you now, even if you haven't been sealed before, I..."
The wolf knight's proud voice stopped abruptly, as if someone had slapped him in the face.
Concordia looked at him coldly. There was a layer of red soul armor outside his burly body. The ferocious wolf head on his chest was the fierce beast soul in his heart, and the transparent light was like a burning flame.
Second-class soul armored warrior!
Roddick's face was distorted, and he couldn't believe his eyes: "I, you... how can it be!"
If a knight is sealed with a soul core, it can only be lifted through the soul casting ceremony of the temple, not to mention whether the temple sacrifice will favor a knight expelled by the family, the summer sacrifice of the temple will take another month.
Then the question is, how did Concordia regain its power? Could it be that the temple held a separate ceremony for him - it was simply impossible.
"Nothing is impossible..." Leon said lightly, "Concordia is a real knight. The great beast god will not watch an upright knight suffer injustice, so he not only regained his strength, but also broke through the realm of strength."
Sooner or later, the fact that Concordia regained its power will spread. The reason for unblocking will certainly attract attention, so Leon simply pushed it to the beast god.
As a loyal knight, it is normal to get the favor of the beast god. A small miracle is not without precedent. No one dares to question the beast god, right?
This is undoubtedly a perfect explanation. Leon can also hide his special abilities.
The sarcasm in Rayon's words was like a slap on Roddick's face. The wolf knight's face was blue and red, and it was difficult to see the extreme.
Seeing the other party's expression, Concordia's sultry breath came out in his heart. He smiled and scattered the soul armor of protecting his body.
A gesture of disdainful.
Rodick didn't spit out a mouthful of old blood, which is really called self-humiliation.
"Knight Roddick, let's talk about business with Baron Leon?"
When the wolf knight was riding a tiger, Convne, who was sitting aside, smiled and said, "We have to hurry back to recover."
Rodick took a deep breath and regained his composure on the surface. He turned his eyes to Leon and said coldly, "Baron Leon, the grison of the southwestern province is uniting all the fortresses and territories on the western border to prepare for an encirclement operation against the monsters and black elves active in the dark land..."
The existence of a dark place in the western territory has always been a serious threat to the southwest provinces.
So once the monsters and underground creatures in the dark land are found to show signs of outbreaks, the grisons will mobilize their forces to encircle and suppress them. Although they can't fundamentally solve the problem, they can also avoid an uncontrollable situation.
Terries such as the territory adjacent to the dark land are undoubtedly the beneficiaries of the encirclement operation, so the grison headquarters usually require the territory to provide corresponding support before the operation.
Whoever benefits is fair and reasonable, which is supported by the high-level officials of the kingdom and the Senate.
Of course, the local aristocratic territory can also be strongly rejected, but this is equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the girres, and it is even more unpopular.
Roddick and Convyne came for this purpose, so they would rather wait for three days at the lord's house to see Leon himself.
Because it is not that there has never been a lord evasion of responsibility before. After all, the operation of the military headquarters cannot be terminated or delayed by the lack of cooperation of a local lord.
"I see..." Leon nodded and asked, "What do you want us to take out?"
"It's very simple. The provincial garrison asked Sal to provide 500 soldiers with weapons..."
Probably because of Leon's considerable cooperation, Roddick's arrogance came back: "Or it's okay to support the military expenses of 50,000 gold coins. There is no room for negotiation. The military doesn't need to bargain!"
500 warriors, or 50,000 gold coins!
Although Leon does not know what the practice is in other territories, I believe that as a newly established territory for less than half a year, it will not be normal to ask Sal to take out so much.
The other party's request obviously has a strong target surname. If the requirements are met, it is equivalent to treating yourself as a pig.
But if you refuse it directly, the consequence is not only to offend the gendarms of the southwestern province, but also give the best excuse for those who want to deal with Salling.
"We Salling are willing to bear our responsibilities..." Leon said slowly, "But our Salling has just been established, the summer grain has not been harvested, and there is not much commercial tax. How can we get 50,000 gold coins?"
Of course, Leon can take out 50,000 gold coins, but he is not a fool. This time he took it out to solve the problem, and he may ask for more ruthless next time.
"Then you can come out. It's impossible that your territory can't even afford 500 soldiers, right?" Roddick sneered and said, "I saw a lot of patrols on the street, and the equipment is good."
"Baron Leon, you don't want to refuse the request of the military department, do you?"
Leon ignored him, but turned to Convne and asked, "Knight Convney, the gaffen army asked us to receive money or send people, because we Sal understood that we benefited from the extermination of the army, right?"
How old Rayon's eyes are. Roddick obviously played the role of black-faced between the two knights. Although the tiger knight Connie didn't say much, her identity should be above Roddick.
In the face of Leon's inquiry, Convni smiled and said, "Yes, Baron Leon, I also understand that such a request may be a little difficult for Salling, but in the long run, the action of the military department can greatly solve the threat that Salling will face in the future."
"The dark land is constantly expanding, and the activities of the black elves are becoming more and more rampant. Sooner or later, they will launch an attack on the city of Saar."
Talent! Leon nodded secretly in his heart. The tiger girl looked very careless, and her mind was absolutely delicate.
Obviously, it was a rude request, and it seemed that it was all for the sake of Leon.
For this, Leon attaches far more importance to the female knight than Roddick.
"It makes sense!" Leon clapped his hands, with a smile on his face, but the words suddenly changed: "Knight of Convney, considering the current situation of Salling, I would like to make a suggestion."
"I would like to hear more about it!" Caffine still kept smiling.
"We, Sal, are willing to provide military support of 8,000 gold coins to the garrison, and at the same time send soldiers to suppress the monsters in the territory. What do you think?"
I pay, but I can only pay so much. I work hard, but I only care about my own territory! Leon's words were obviously beyond Convne's expectation, and she was stunned.
After careful analysis, Leon's suggestions were impeccable. He did not refuse the request of the military department and paid and contributed.
If this still doesn't work, even if the lawsuit goes to the Senate, the elders of the kingdom will not think that there is anything wrong with the Sal collar, but only think that the gush army department of the southwest province is deliberately making things difficult.
"I remember that the area of your dark place is not small. Can you rely on your territorial guard?" Roddick jumped out again: "The final result depends on the gains. If you can't show a decent record at that time, we can only think that this is perfunctory and contempt for the grison!"
"Have you won the record?" Leon laughed and said, "Concordia, go and let someone carry everything in!"
"Yes, my lord!" Concordia replied, and then walked away from the hall with her head held high.
The two knights looked at each other and didn't understand what Leon was going to do.
Roddick looked at the confident Rayon and had a bad feeling in his heart.
Soon, Concordia returned to the hall with several thunder beast guards, and the soldiers also brought two blood-stained sacks.
Leon ordered, "Open it and show it to the two knights!"
The tether of the sack was pulled open, and the things wrapped in it immediately appeared in front of Connie and Roddick. The air was immediately filled with a strong smell of blood and a disgusting smell of rottenness!
In these two marijuana bags, one is the head of a black elf, and the other is the nose of the earth spirit that has been cut off countless times!
The weather is hot. Although these things are sprinkled with antiseptic potions, they still can't avoid signs of decay.
Roddick almost spit it out on the spot, and the horror in his heart was indescribable.
"Five days ago, our Sal led the thunder beast camp into the dark place and went deep into the ground to destroy a black elf team, including a black elf wizard!" Leon said lightly, "Then we killed 386 goblers and finally destroyed a city of goblers!"
"This is impossible!" The wolf knight let out a strange cry, and his voice changed.
Leon snorted disdainfully - idiot! Is everything in front of you fake?
Confé's face changed. She raised her head again and looked at Leon's eyes: "Baron Leon, this is a rare victory in the southwestern province in the past ten years. I admire your bravery!"
She actually stood up and respectfully saluted Leon.
