In terms of the strategy of "negotiation", Camilla's behavior at this time can be called "stupid" - because showing off her trump card at the beginning of the negotiation is equivalent to giving up her initiative completely and letting others slaughter it.

It was not that she had thought of going to tug-of-war with Roddy, or talking about it and distracting his energy. Then she immediately brought up the topic of "Nefi" after discussing certain other conditions... But thinking of Roddy's pursuit and efforts for his ideals, Camilla no longer wanted to communicate with him in a "bargaining" way.

Because Camilla admires him—this is a heartfelt emotion.

"The Holy Society will probably set me abducted sooner or later, and if they know my current situation, they may continue to use me-so... I decided to believe you."

Camilla let out a light breath. After knowing Roddy's experience, even if he just looked at his calm eyes, Camilla always felt like she was facing the elder of the "Holy Society" and felt inexplicably stressed.

“I’m glad to hear you make this decision.”

Roddy did not directly answer her request, but sat down slightly, and said with a serious expression: "The Holy Society will inevitably become enemies with me - what Elson has in the city is more attractive to the Holy Society than anything, so the best way is to not let anyone know what is going on here."

"If you just 'missed, they will definitely continue to send people here to investigate. So I wonder, can you make the 'Holy Council, believe that your team is here...get nothing?"

Camilla immediately understood his intention, thought for a while, and replied, "There is a way."

"That's it."

Roddy nodded, but there was still nothing to talk about Naife. Camilla was a little hesitant, but her intuition told her... Roddy's reply just now meant that he had agreed to his request.

But he neither made a vow nor gave himself a verbal affirmation. Is this okay?

This hesitation only happened for a moment. Camilla nipped her lower lip and then made a choice: "I will write a letter to you before noon."

After saying that, she turned around and left without asking any more.

Roddy did not intend to stop her, but was a little stunned. To be honest, Camilla and Nefi's quirky personalities are very different, and their styles are quite different. However, when they show hesitation because of their choice, they are almost exactly the same...

In a trance, Roddy seemed to see the back of the cute smile, jumping away, and his heart suddenly hurt a lot.

He did not make any promises to Camilla, because no "vow" was more important than his firm belief in his heart - Roddy was not looking for Nefi for the sake of his oath, he had to do much more than he had.

As noon approached, the soldiers from the inner city had already assembled and were ready to go to war again.

Three months ago, Roddy brought forty knights and eighty husbands into the city. After experiencing the defense battle outside the Pashar Demon Tower, the number of people in this team inevitably reduced by twenty-four people - but this amazing "war loss ratio" was built from excellent weapons and armor, a large number of intermediate potions and scrolls. They almost overdrawn their bodies several times during the battle, so that within three days after the battle, 80% of the soldiers completely lost their ability to move, and Akasha even took a full week to recover.

However, such fierce battles can improve the combat power and willpower of soldiers than a hundred training sessions: the entourage who originally had only level four on average was all increased to level eight at this time, while the basic level of the knights jumped directly to level 13 on average.

Including the attribute bonus brought by the equipment, their combat effectiveness at this time is nearly ten times stronger than when they were in Nolan Village.

Such a level has surpassed more than 80% of the "knights" enfeoffed by the kingdom, and is even stronger than the private knight guard of the Great Lord.

"Cross, move forward"

In the sun, all the soldiers were walking towards the edge of the inner city with the command. This was not about to leave the city, but their destination was the "temporary cemetery" where twenty-four dead soldiers were buried.

"stand at attention"

Under the order, all the soldiers remained solemnly - at this time, all the living people in Elson City were standing in the queue, including Nata, Akasha, Camilla and others, all silently looking at the simple tombstone in front of them, each with their own thoughts.

Roddy stood at the front of the queue and did not express any thoughts or passionate declarations. He just gave a silent military salute, then turned around and said softly: "A stone tablet will be erected here, and all those participating in this battle will be left on the stone tablet."

There is battle and sacrifice. If you want to get it, you must lose it. For the death of a soldier, guilt itself is meaningless, and what Roddy can do is such a simple promise.

A promise to keep in history.

"Prepare to set off."

He took a deep breath and gave the order to leave the city.

Camilla came over and handed him a secret letter, carefully explained the way it was passed to the "Holy Council". Then she turned her eyes to the infantry who was about to leave, and said, "If it goes smoothly from here to Mogra Village, maybe two months may take... and it seems that it has only been two days since we know it."

Roddy sighed a little, but didn't know how to answer - when he thought of Nefi, he would remember that Camilla, who could not tell in front of him, had the identity of "a future mother-in-law".

Now there is no conflict between the two, but Roddy thought about it carefully and felt that if he wanted to communicate normally with Camilla, he should not be too attentive at the moment. So his attitude at this moment regarded Camilla as a friend he could talk to.

"I try to come back within half a year. During this period, there will be a lot of orders and support materials. If you can help, I hope you can help."

After Roddy finished speaking, he pointed to the library in the distance and said, "I found the ruins of Wagra in Jingyu Forest, where there are some precious isolated books. There may be more analysis of this city. I don't know if they can help you get rid of the comfort and limitations of the "guardian," but... even if there is a glimmer of hope, you should try it."

Hearing these words, Camilla's eyes widened slightly, and her heart suddenly accelerated. Although she had gradually accepted the fact that she was imprisoned here, her desire for "freedom" in her heart never faded. Roddy said this to give her a hope and told her a fact from the side: he did not want Camilla to stay here for the rest of her life.

"Okay, it's time for me to leave."
