Chapter 562 Unexpected Invitation (2/2)
To the players of the Munn Kingdom, the Light Dragon was similar to Liu Chan of the Three Kingdoms Period; a worthless character. The players had curiously discussed on the forums as to why the Light Dragon didn't show up even in such critical junctures. Was it because her forces were too weak? The Munn Kingdom stayed faithful and true to her and the three Archangels were widely-known powerful presences on the continent. But why didn't she step up when the Munn Kingdom was backstabbed and when the Country of Darkness attacked?
Some players suspected that the Light Dragon was an astute and circumspect conspirator who manipulated the three Archangels to achieve her hidden goals and even controlled the Light Parliament to slaughter in order to capture statuses. Got to say, this conspiracy was widely accepted by the players. After all, everyone loved plot twists to high-level conspiracies…
But after the Munn Kingdom collapsed and the Country of Light offered the Light Dragon to seek peace from the Country of Darkness, the players finally realized — The Light Dragon was literally as useless as a decorative item without any purpose at all!
This was something that Rhode and the players of the Munn Kingdom couldn't accept. They would accept it if Lydia and the Munn Kingdom had fallen into the hands of the conspiracy. However, they failed due to one's incompetence!
It was far more difficult to accept failure due to one's incompetence rather than to conspiracy. If the Light Dragon wasn't devoured by the Dark Dragon in the end, Rhode would have led his Guild to slaughter that worthless fella. But she was lucky that the Dark Dragon had made the first move and Rhode had no choice but to fulfill his 'Nation-saving' desire by annihilating the Dark Dragon.
But now… The Light Dragon wants to meet me?
Rhode had mixed emotions. It felt as though a person was reborn as Zhao Yun and he discovered that he was carrying a future disaster in his arm. Was he better off abandoning the disaster before it happened or keep it with him safely?
Lydia had no opinions about the Light Dragon, even until the very end. She wasn't resentful for the Light Dragon abandoning her. However, Rhode couldn't accept it. The Light Dragon had caused the most trouble for Rhode. Facing such an incompetent Light Dragon… Frankly speaking, he wasn't interested in meeting such trash. He didn't feel that he had anything good to talk about with the puppet of the Light Parliament. Besides, he didn't feel comfortable whenever he thought about the disaster caused by this worthless puppet and the consequences of the Munn Kingdom and its players.
Moreover, he felt strange about the Light Dragon's invitation. He was sure that this wasn't a part of a system mission. If it were in the past, there were many players with high reputation in the Munn Kingdom and there weren't any invitations sent out to them from the Light Dragon. But now, she has gotten Lydia to invite me? What's going? Although I've indeed accomplished some reputable missions, these missions only made me popular in the Munn Kingdom. So why would the Light Dragon of the Country of Light know anything about me?
Rhode gazed at Lydia silently while Lydia revealed a surprised and curious expression. She wasn't aware that Rhode disliked the Light Dragon and this was why she felt strange as to how Rhode calmed down in mere seconds. Although he didn't feel good about the Light Dragon one bit, this invitation was, after all, asked by Lydia and he couldn't possibly reject her…
I shall treat this as fulfilling my wish as a player to observe clearly for myself the exact body measurements of this Light Dragon.
Not only that, but Rhode had also sensed a message from Lydia's words. The Dragon Soul Ceremony would be held at the end of the year and it was apparent that Lydia had intended to end the war surrounding the Munn Kingdom within the next three months!
