Things progressed smoothly After Lize was returned fro the new stronghold She stood anxiously in front of the entrance while holding the supplies that she had just bought, not daring to coround in a daze, Lize would’ve probably stood there until night caes, naturally, she had sos, just by common sense, anyone would have assumed that he’d just cleaned up the broken furniture, and not deliver a complete makeover Clearly, Rhode did not want to explain h a lot of things, she began to trust hih what he did was odd, but since Rhode was a very e

And Lize believed that one day he would tell her everything

Rhode heard from her about the situation in the Mercenary association That old man was left speechless once she recounted the story that happened It was apparent that he did not expect the both of them to conquer the haunted house On the other hand, Sereck took their side He even gave so him that he should be more careful to avoid unnecessary trouble

Rhode’s heart felt warenuine reminder While Haunted House had a bad reputation, Deep Stone City still did not send its top-tier fighters to conquer it For a Master Swordsman like Sereck, he could easily subdue the undead But the reason he did not do so was not that the eneer than him, but instead, it was because of some other external factors

In the end, this place was situated at the highest district and belonged to the nobles, which would certainly spell trouble for thereedy nobles discovered that the haunted house was no longer cursed, old coins for a large ain was an understatement Naturally, some people would have sinister intentions to take the house back As the saying goes, there was no free lunch in this world

Rhode knew about this matter, but he was curious as to why Sereck would res since both of them was not even close… Was it because of the battle from before that made Sereck fond of hih priority now The current challenge was how to further develop his hted the first proble of only two people was certainly i on Rhode’s familiarity with this area, he would be able to coh members, then it was no way for hith, he could only kill undead creatures efficiently If he fought against living creatures, it would be much more troubleso, transporting, and others, with his current member count, no one would dare to entrust these jobs to him

However, what kind of men he should hire? At least the price must be reasonable… With this amount of money currently, he should be able to eoes, use the best steel topersonnel, then it would be too late for him to cry

He creased his brows as he sat in the study room quietly The room had plenty of open spaces Other than a desk, few chairs and a bookshelf, there was nothing else Although it looked quite shabby, right now, he could only accept it

After closing the book on his hand, Rhode fell into deep into thought

8th Month, the year of glory ——— was half a year later The Country of Light, after investigating some matters, they declared that the Country of Darkness was the perpetrator behind the floating shi+p attack on the border Then they quickly sent their troops and occupied Mount Solacen There, they controlled the inhabitants, clai that those men were the culprits behind the ambush After that, they were promptly arrested and executed

Two months later, the Country of Darkness’s army made a response and took back Mount Solacen, and the Country of Light’s army was annihilated

An all-out war broke out

The Munn Kingdoainst the Country of Darkness, and also the place that Rhode resided In truth, the calaht issued a decree, preventing the

The players began hurling insults to quench their resentan surfacing: ‘Fck GM!! How dare you toy with us?!’, ‘Die you stupid garoup of bstards from the council!’ were com their hearts out, the Munn Kingdom’s inhabitants departed in a hurry

But only one person stayed

As an angel, she singlehandedly withstood the Country of Darkness relentless assault until the last shi+p from Trisfia Port left, then she finally closed her eyes to rest for eternity Unto the last rave ——— ‘I will always stand behind my people and shi+eld the or not, was of er couldn’t be contained any longer and broke loose like water bursting out from a dam

And they succeeded

Under Rhode’s coer each day They were able to sweep through the Country of Light and utterly deht’s council After that, they sharpened their blades and went for the country that started this whole mess—the Country of Darkness In the end, they succeeded and even conquered one of the Creator Dragons, the Dark Dragon The Starlight Guild then rose to the fauild

While everybody was celebrating, Rhode basked in a dullwithin Rhode’s heart
