Chapter 52 Cry

The confrontation between Adrian and Ling and the superior uncle Yao finally ended in Adrian's victory. When Adrian walked towards Yao while talking, he was completely under the pressure of Yao's momentum.

, a pressure coming from an unknown place deep in the sky almost pressed Yao to the ground, and what Adrian did, apart from mercilessly mocking him, was to gently lift the lid of the Cauldron of Creation.

It's just a crack. The Fortune Cauldron is worthy of being an existence higher than this world. Even if it's just a crack, Yao doesn't dare to pretend.

In the end, Yao "escaped" from Rivendell City in an almost embarrassing manner. He even activated his skills and relied on his own power to transform into a golden stream of light and left the range of Rivendell City.

He summoned his own golden phoenix to soar into the sky, instead of summoning his divine beast companions from the canopy of Rivendell as usual.

Ling looked at Yao's back and suddenly felt a little sentimental: "Why did he become like this? Aidan, he used to be a famous good old man in Aasta, and almost everyone has been helped by him, but now, almost everyone

All the High Sun Elves have been blackmailed by him, but why on earth did he become like this?"

Adrian walked to Ling's side, put his arms around her shoulders, pulled him into his arms, and said comfortingly: "There's nothing strange about this, Ling, you have to know that everyone changes."

Yes, it’s just that the magnitude of the change is different, and the angle of change is also different. He may have been a good person before, but since he made the choice he thought was right, he is no longer the same person. There is no need to be sentimental.

, this is something that everyone will experience, well, let’s do this, I guess you must still have some friends in Aeasta, invite them to be guests, then you will know that the changed place will make you helpless,

But the good thing is, what doesn’t change will never change.”

Ling nodded. She did have a few little sisters. Since Adrian said it, she went as she was and went to write the invitation letter. Adrian, on the other hand, stayed there for a while and finally sighed.

In one breath, Alice was able to recruit Mr. Bryant and Barbas again, but that matter was not over yet.

As the top military leaders in the territory, Mr. Bryant and Barbas are of course always paying attention to the security issues around World Tree Rivendell. It is not just them, the security issue of Rivendell is that all military top brass are absolutely

focus.

Therefore, they naturally saw the golden stream of light when Yao left, and even some of them with keen senses also sensed the two waves of light erupting from the World Tree Manor on the canopy of Rivendell that made people palpitate and even couldn't help but surrender.

The huge momentum and pressure, and the strange "golden streamer" at the end didn't look very happy to leave, and they couldn't help but have some complaints against their lord in their hearts: Why are you provoking the Supreme Sun Elf?

What? This is really too dangerous.

It's a pity that they will most likely never know where Adrian's confidence lies, and of course they will not understand Adrian's somewhat detached mentality. What Adrian thinks now is that he wants to win in the World Twin Battle.

Accumulate enough resources, and as for other things, none of them are important and can be put aside.

Mr. Bryant and Barbas, who were summoned to Adrian again, looked at Adrian with some worries, but they also knew that this was not a topic they could participate in, so they said no more, just

The discussion continued but was interrupted by Yao. Mr. Bryant decided to persuade Adrian. After all, the penalty for terminating the employment contract was too severe. For lower elves and vassal races, once their employment was terminated,

Contract, it's really the same as being exiled as a wild elf.

They will never have the opportunity to be hired by any lord, and even requests to join a territory as free people will be infinitely rejected, although Adrian also said that he would give them the heads of the Duwei they killed.

, but this can only be exchanged for the title of a minor noble or a sum of magic crystals. Other than that, they will have nothing and will be in dire straits.

So Mr. Bryant persuaded: "The dismissal contract is really too harsh, Lord. Although they have violated the laws of the hunting ground, after all, they have devoted almost their entire lives to the territory, even if it is just for their efforts.

For the sake of their youth, I think it’s worth forgiving them once.”

Adrian's lips raised a sneer: "Giving your youth? Mr. Bryant, you seem to have forgotten one thing. I did not use their youth in vain. When they gave their youth, I also gave the magic crystal for it.

I don’t know what’s wrong with them, that they would do such a thing because of the pursuit of glory. Can they be forgiven once for committing a crime for the sake of glory? I don’t think so, and I don’t want to disrespect soldiers who care about their comrades in this way.”

Edarian's words were categorical and there seemed to be no room for negotiation, but Mr. Bryant still decided to make one last effort. He said in an almost pleading tone: "Even if they violated the hunting ground laws, the lord

Sir, please execute them directly and let Barbas do it. After all, he is the commander this time and he has this power. Please don't let these people be driven out in such an embarrassing manner."

Adrian was unmoved. He asked with a smile: "Then, let me ask you, Mr. Bryant, why are they so persistent in pursuing the glory of entering the Tomb of Heroes? Maybe I can answer

This question is just to make their nephew more competitive on the road of becoming my attendant. So, is the glory they pursue really glory? In fact, in the final analysis, it is just profit, but they

For the sake of his own interests, he did not hesitate to violate the laws of the hunting ground. He did not care about the lives of his comrades for his own benefit, and even ignored my interests. I used generous treatment to cultivate a group of selfish people who did not care about my interests. Aren't you ridiculous?

?”

When Mr. Bryant heard this, he knew that Adrian was really angry because of this matter, and even felt a little chilled. He knew that he could not persuade him, so he could only sigh and said: "I understand.

Lord, we will do it."

But Adrian didn't seem to say enough. Even though Mr. Bryant had compromised, he continued: "I have never said these things, but today I want to talk about what kind of relationship you think

What is the perfect relationship between the collective and the individual? Mr. Bryant, in my opinion, the so-called collective is actually composed of individuals. Individuals contribute to the collective, and the collective treats individuals equally in the way of treatment.

This is a perfect relationship, but there cannot be selfish people in it, because selfish people will never be satisfied. They will do whatever it takes for their own interests and will eventually hollow out the collective. And I just represent and dominate the sun.

The overall interests of the Storm Leader group, so I will never allow this to happen. Those selfish people can fight with their comrades for military honors today, but will they betray me for greater interests tomorrow?"

Mr. Bryant wanted to say that they didn't dare, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out after a while. He could only lean on the back of the chair slumped and pinched his eyebrows with one hand.

It was extremely painful for any senior military officer to make the decision to expel soldiers from his own unit. He understood that Adrian wanted to completely solve the problem of veterans competing for military honors by killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.

Problem, he also knew that this was the right decision, but he was still in pain.

Barbas, who had been silent all this time, had already stood up from his chair and knelt down in front of Adrian without saying a word. He seemed to be begging for forgiveness and protesting silently. Adrian sighed.

He knew that he had swung the stick and threatened enough, and if he continued to swing the stick, he would have exceeded the limit, so he decided to start being gentle. He sighed and continued:

"Do you really think I made this decision out of anger? No, have you ever thought about it? If you don't completely prevent such behavior from happening again, you will definitely be risking the lives of other, larger numbers of soldiers.

You know, I have always cherished the irresponsibility of

The life of every soldier under his command, in the face of a larger life, these few selfish people can only be sacrificed in this way, and they will not lose their lives. In addition, you should all understand,

These are just wasteland wanderers, and will become the elite Overlord Legion in the future."

When Barbas heard this, he began to look at Adrian intently, and after a long while he asked in a hoarse voice: "Let me announce this matter, your lord, I am the commander of this army, and I should

It is the shame of my life that I have to enforce the laws of the hunting ground. Please let me remember this day firmly."

Adrian shook his head and said: "No, it's not appropriate for you to announce this matter. You have to understand the truth. When they can't hate me, they will point the finger at the person who brought them bad news.

And you are the leader of an army."

Barbas still looked directly into Adrian's eyes. His eyes were firmer than ever. He shook his head firmly and said: "No, Lord, this is a mistake I made. If this mistake must be punished, one person must be punished."

If so, then I will be the most suitable candidate. If we shoulder the responsibility of commander perfectly, and if I can restrain their behavior in advance, then how could things develop to the current situation."

"This is not your fault, Barbas. You must know that the human heart is always the most difficult thing to understand in the world, and you have a long way to go in the future..." Adrian continued to persuade Barbas.

, he is ready to announce the decision in his own name.

But Mr. Bryant supported Barbas's decision. He interrupted Adrian and said, "Let Barbas make the announcement. Lord, you know that you are the absolute master of the Solar Storm Territory, but

You are also the inner pillar and spiritual totem of the Solar Storm Territory. You have absolute prestige among us. Any potential threats that may threaten this prestige must be eliminated, and when you carry the weight of shame on your back, you also

It can make Barbas more stable in the future."

Adrian thought about it and felt that what Mr. Bryant said made sense, but he still couldn't convince himself that if a lord kept letting his servants and vassals take the blame, then what's the point of being such a lord?

So Adrian shook his head and rejected Mr. Bryant. He said firmly: "No need, you are my attendants, but not my slaves. I can't place my responsibilities on you. Okay."

, stop trying to persuade me, Barbas, go and disband your troops."

This day is destined to be an unforgettable day for the attendants, vassals and free citizens of the Solar Storm Territory. First, their lord drove away a Supreme Sun Elf His Highness, and then, nearly a hundred people, who violated

The servants and vassals who had violated the hunting ground law were terminated by the lord from their employment contracts, and even their family members were deprived of their status as free people. However, the lord actually treated these guys extrajudicially mercifully. Well,

Making an exception and not depriving them of the military exploits they had gained in Hertoy, the Lord allowed them to take away all the Duwei heads they captured, and even their weapons and equipment were not recovered.

These guys who violated the laws of the hunting grounds were immediately expelled from the territory. When they left while crying and being watched by others, Barbas closed his eyes behind them, as if this could isolate those guys.

Crying sound...
