Because of this, Roddy made the "political statement" just now. He wasn't interested in the equipment itself, but the attitude behind the Frost Dragon Race to return the favor.
Solving the "Ancient Sea Monster", helping Kardashian to escape danger, and capturing the "Mutated Cosworth Earth Dragon" with high research value. These seemed to be "great achievements", but in the eyes of the Dragons, they could be big or small …
Last time, they tried their best to close the "Demon's Gate". Logically speaking, Roddy had contributed a lot, but what did the Red Dragon Lord Queio give him? It was just a mark that increased resistance. Compared to the wealth of the Dragons, what was the difference between this and sending away a beggar?
Therefore, Victor's gift was obviously a sign that he valued Roddy, Efta, and even the entire human race. Those with slightly higher political IQ could see the trend of the relationship between the Dragons and humans in the future. Roddy naturally expressed his support for this. After all, the Dragons were a powerful brand. Even if he didn't give any benefits, he could still earn a lot with the name alone.
"Kardashian is naughty, but I think it's more than enough for her to stay here and help the Dragons pass on the message. Lord Roddy, what do you think?"
Victor mentioned casually. Roddy saw Kardashian's winking and knew that she wanted to stay here, so he replied, "Her Excellency Kardashian is powerful and steady. To be honest, she doesn't have prejudice against humans like some people, so she's obviously a very suitable candidate."
Half of this was nonsense. Back then, Kardashian's arrogant and domineering look made Roddy complain in his heart. However, after experiencing a few battles, she had indeed toned it down a lot.
Kardashian secretly heaved a sigh of relief. How could Victor not know what she was thinking? He decided on this matter. Then, he also said that the research value of the "Cosworth Earth Dragon" was very high. After the Dragons received a unanimous evaluation, they would give Roddy another reward to show their gratitude.
This generosity made Roddy very happy. However, he was more worried about when he could save Camilla, so he mentioned the topic of the "Space-Time Rift".
This was also an important event for Victor. The "Space-Time Rift" was a resource that even the Dragons would fight for. He was also afraid that a long delay might cause trouble, so he said positively, "If you don't mind, I'm already prepared. We can leave directly after today's speech."
The "Space-Time Rift" was not something he could handle alone. To ensure nothing, Victor also needed the help of many younger generations of the Dragons. Of course, Roddy agreed, but he also asked for the request of the "Space-Time Rift".
Both sides had the sincerity to cooperate, and there was no conflict of interest, so the meeting was quickly settled. Logically speaking, the Dragons did not have the habit of signing agreements. However, Roddy made the two sign several written agreements at the same time with the excuse of "helping with the promotion". He also asked Kardashian to use the "Mirror Copy" spell to record the scene of him and Victor exchanging the agreements …
After everything was settled, Victor smiled and went downstairs to the conference hall to continue today's public lecture. Rody, on the other hand, sat contentedly at his desk and began to write the contents of today's meeting on a piece of paper. He then sent it to Camilla, who was in the 'Confinement Sphere', looking forward to her opinions and feedback.
"Your way of communication is interesting. Hey! Why don't you let me watch? "
Kardashian came over and said in a strange tone. She was like a child with ADHD, as if she could never be idle, which gave Roddy a headache.
"Aren't you going to listen to your father's speech?"
"I've been listening to him for hundreds of years, and I'm tired of it." Kardashian saw that Roddy had saved the paper into the crystal ball, so she stopped asking. She leaned back on the couch and put her long legs on the low stool. "With him here, I don't dare to run around, for fear of being scolded … Do you have anything to relieve your boredom? Play with me for a while! "
Roddy had thought that Merinsera's personality was relatively cheerful among the Dragons, but the one in front of him was simply a clown. He even had a feeling that Victor's parent threw him to Elson because he found this naughty child annoying.
However, it was not that he did not have any countermeasures. He got up and said to Kardashian, "I do have something to relieve boredom. Have you heard of Mahjong?"
*****
While Roddy was explaining the rules of Mahjong to Kardashian with Sylvia and Evelyn, Akasha was not called to participate in the game.
She did not stay in her laboratory for the past few days to conduct any research. Instead, she had been running to the Central Intelligence Agency in Elson. She did not join the Agency like Natha, but volunteered to participate in the interrogation of the remaining arcanists.
This was mainly because the three arcanists were very tight-lipped, as if they had been specially trained in anti-interrogation. Thus, the conventional interrogation methods did not yield much results for several days.
However, after Akasha joined in, everything began to change.
The existence of the divine spell allowed the torture to be repeated. She endured it once? No problem, there would be a second and a third time.
"I'll talk … I'll talk … Stop it! Don't! "
Screams came from the dungeon. In the dim light, Akasha's face showed a coldness that had never been seen before.
The divine spell could save people, but it could also make people beg for death. As a member of the Viper Cross, Akasha would not recite scriptures like "God loves the world" all day long. Her idea was very simple: she would do her best to eliminate anything that could threaten Roddy.
This firm idea had completely turned the soft-spoken little priest into a demon in the eyes of the arcanists.
Other than a few soldiers in the room who were proficient in torture, Doris, as a "newcomer", was also sitting on a bench to help. However, she did not even dare to breathe at this time, completely frightened by the cruel temperament that Akasha had shown.
In her impression, Akasha had always been soft and weak. She spoke in a low voice, and she usually did some research on her own. However, in the face of these arcanists, the priest seemed to have turned into a cold god of death.
"Pa!"
The sound of finger bones being broken rang again. The soldier with the torture instrument wiped the blood off his face and continued, "Aren't you stubborn? Continue to be stubborn. Who knows if what you said is true or not? "
With that, he nailed the other fingertip with a sharp awl. Akasha turned a blind eye to the hoarse scream. She only released a divine spell when the other person was about to faint, and then continued to stare at the almost lifeless eyes of the arcanist. The interrogating soldier at the side pressed the pale arcanist down and continued, "Where did you come from?"
"I'll talk! I'll tell you everything! The members of the Holy Assembly are scattered all over the place. We all came after receiving a mission from the elder. I used to live in the town of Cara in the Brass territory! "
The arcanist surrendered not only because of the physical pain, but also because of the aura that the woman in front of him exuded. It was a kind of silent madness, a bottomless abyss.
"Who is the elder? Where did he come from? "
"Dominic! His name is Dominic! One of the six elders of the Holy Assembly! He has his own magic tower and can move around the continent! I don't know where exactly he came from! "
The arcanist was obviously tortured to the extreme. He answered at the top of his voice, his limbs twitching involuntarily. He was like a dehydrated fish. However, as Akasha cast a divine spell, the pain subsided and the wounds healed, but the arcanist did not feel comfortable. Instead, he revealed a look that was close to madness. "Kill me! Kill me! I beg of you! "
"Doris …"
Akasha suddenly spoke, causing Doris, who was tense all over, to shiver. She knew what this meant and immediately began to cast a spell. She successfully broke through the arcanist's original mental defense and took control of him. "Tell me everything you know."
The arcanist who had a look of madness just now began to narrate expressionlessly like a zombie, from when he was born as a member of the Holy Assembly to how he sneaked into Elsen City. He even revealed his broken virginity …
When Akasha and Doris left the Central Intelligence Agency, it was already evening. Bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, Akasha, who reeked of blood, walked onto the street. She turned her head and said to Doris, "Thank you."
"Uh, it's my duty, my duty!"
Doris felt uncomfortable when Akasha looked at her. She knew that the woman in front of her was the wife of Castellan Roddy, so she, who had once slept with Roddy, was afraid that Akasha would suddenly make things difficult for her and drag her somewhere to teach her a lesson. However, Akasha did not say anything else. She just nodded and left.
Doris, who was relieved, stood at the corner of the street. Only then did she realize that her back was already drenched.
Akasha was holding the documents that had been sorted out from the interrogation in her arms. She was ready to go to Roddy to explain the situation, but after a few steps, she found that the people on the street were looking up and pointing. She raised her head in confusion, only to find that there were several huge figures flapping their wings at the end of her vision.
"I really didn't expect that there would be so many dragons in Elsen City …"
"It's like a dream."
"I can really brag about this for the rest of my life!"
Akasha paused for a while before she understood that the Frost Dragon Overlord had set off with the twelve Frost Dragons from the city, bringing Rody with them as they flew into the distance. She, who knew the inside story, understood that Roddy was taking everyone to find the nest of the Cosworth Earth Dragon. After all, zirconium could only be found there.
"I hope it goes well …"
She put away the negative emotions in the interrogation room and walked back to the mansion. As soon as she put the documents on Roddy's desk, she saw a servant come to submit a new letter. Akasha took it and was about to put it aside, but when she looked down, she found that the letter was from Hollier City. The lacquer wax seal had the emblem of the Lucifron family.
This letter was not a private matter, but an official letter with complicated patterns. She could see the contents on the back without opening the letter. Akasha turned it over and glanced at it. It was a notice that the "cabinet meeting" was about to be held in Elsen City. And in the team that was about to arrive, the name of Sally Lucifron was impressively on the list!
"She can't stay in Hollier anymore, so she actually came here?"
