Chapter 216: Special task

Chapter 216 Special Tasks
Instinctively felt a kind of fatal danger. Looking at the wooden staff in Roddy's hand, Ruth flashed a desperate thought for an instant.
The vampire roared, spread his fingers and threw on it. She has already used all her strength, and her strength has reached the peak state, and the whole person is carrying a strong wind. Roddy was standing there, squinting at the vampire coming towards him. The "Moses' Scepter" in his hand shook slightly. The vampire rushed to a place about one meter in front of him, and suddenly crashed into something!
There was a flower in front of Nidis and Duck, who seemed to have seen a faint and strange light flashing from the wooden stick in Roddy's hand, and heard a stern cry.
Ruth's body had already flown out, and a cloud of blood exploded in the air. When she fell to the ground, half of her body was already and blood was splashed on the trunk next to her!
Ruth's body shrank quickly, returning to her original human appearance. The broken limbs on one half of her body began to wriggle frantically, and the wound quickly healed, but her groan became more and more stern, full of pain.
"Hmph, the vampire's body is really strong." Roddy slowly said: "Your body can heal automatically, but now the faster you heal, the more the damage will be!"
Ruth has no strength to speak, her mouth is closed tightly, but her eyes are still staring at Roddy, the gaze in her eyes is full of fear-she has not even dared to be angry.
Roddy walked in front of her and pointed the stick at Ruth on the ground. A dead white light appeared from the tip of the stick. Ruth seemed to be afraid of the white light, and her body was trembling. Roddy moved the wooden staff slowly over the wings behind Ruth, Ruth screamed, and the muscles on her pair of wings quickly withered and dried, and then turned into a pile of powdery things.
Looking at the vampire on the ground with satisfaction that he lost his wings, Roddy sneered: "This way you can't fly."
Ruth's teeth trembled. Looking at the cold face in front of her, she felt that the expression on that face became more and more indifferent. The wings behind her were ruined by the other party. Ruth only felt that her eyes were dark and she lost consciousness.
In the Duke Tulip Courtyard, Nicole and Miao Ge stared at the pair of monsters in the cage in the courtyard.
"You caught this?" Nicole felt a little uneasy: "Where is Roddy? Where did he go?"
The monster in the cage seemed a little uneasy, the jackal grinned and hissed from time to time, and Miao Ge seemed a little frightened and shrank behind Nicole.
Dan Yuewu smiled: "Don't worry, Roddy has gone to Duck. As for these two things, they are honest!" She blew the whistle to her mouth.
When Miao Ge saw the two monsters, they immediately fell to the ground and finally heaved a sigh of relief. Nicole still looked worried: "Miss Danyuewu, this is a monster! You caught two monsters back, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
Danyuewu raised her eyebrows: "What's the trouble? These two guys are so obedient. If they dare to be honest, I'll blow the whistle! Are you afraid of anything?"
Nicole shook her head as if she wanted to say something, but after all, she was not very familiar with Danyuewu, so she looked at Miao Ge. Miao Ge nodded and said solemnly: "Tan Yue Wu, things like monsters are too sensitive, I'm afraid the Church of God will trouble us!"
Dan Yuewu curled her lips and wanted to refute, but she suddenly realized that Miao Ge seemed to cast an eye on herself. This Miss Nicole in front of her was not someone else, but she could not speak too harshly and offend her. Otherwise, "he" will probably be unhappy.
Thinking of this, Tan Yuewu put away all her temper, and said honestly: "This is also caught by Roddy. He must have his own idea."
Miao Ge and Dan Yuewu winked, and Nicole looked at them all. She looked at Dan Yuewu and suddenly her complexion was flushed, and she looked a little bit embarrassed, as if she didn't dare to look up. Nicole faintly felt a strange feeling in her heart, sighed, and said: "Forget it, let's wait until he comes back."
The civilians in Xiqiu City were an eye-opener this day.
In the afternoon, countless people gathered on the street. You and my biography were all spreading a message: The Duke Tulip’s soldiers had caught a few vampires!
The security team quickly took to the streets to guard, evacuating the onlookers. Immediately, Roddy took a team of soldiers, tied Ruth to the wooden stakes of a carriage, and walked on the streets of Xiqiu with great fanfare.
The crowd onlookers looked at Ruth who was tied to the stake, and yelled. They couldn't believe that such a charming and charming beauty was actually a terrifying vampire in the legend! Especially Ruth's naked chest and pale face made the citizens of Xiqiu find it really incredible-could such a delicate woman be a vampire?
Roddy rode on the horse calmly, ignoring the civilians who were pointing around, anyway, soldiers from the security team controlled the scene.
He brought Ruth out to parade in such a big way, naturally he had his thoughts. After catching Ruth, he immediately rushed to the vampire's lair outside Xiqiu City, trying to kill the legendary Prince Jiathika in one fell swoop. Regrettably, when he got there, the dilapidated building was empty, with nothing inside. The only thing that hung on the ceiling was densely packed like worm eggs.
Roddy knew what it was, and burned the entire nest alive. The soaring flames attracted a large number of soldiers from the Xiqiu Security Station. Roddy then revealed his identity as an officer of the Royal Guards, surrounded by soldiers, escorted Ruth back to Xiqiu City with great fanfare.
As for the next step, Roddy has his own ideas in mind!
Seeing that he had reached Xiqiu's religious place in front of him, Roddy showed a smile. The bishop of the Xiqiu Religious Institute has already greeted him with a few warriors from the Flame Warrior Group.
The faces of these gods wearing white robes are naturally full of smiles. They were notified that the Royal Guards had captured a vampire and, in accordance with the custom of the Empire, formally handed this blood over to them for disposal.
After hypocrisy with the people in these religious institutes, Roddy left Ruth behind. As for whether these guys burned Ruth to death, or sent them back to the imperial capital to ask for merit, that wasn't Roddy's concern. Ruth couldn't say a word because he had already done tricks in secret anyway. It's just keeping a breath now. There is no need to worry about what she will say.
"Let the vampires and the gods of the gods make trouble!" Roddy sneered in his heart: "I will be very happy no matter who they live or die."
The news of catching the vampire took a few days in Xiqiu before it calmed down. And Roddy's life is not peaceful these days.
Since he came out of the bottom of the lake, the relationship between him and Danyuewu seemed a bit subtle. When it was at the bottom of the lake, it was a fate, and when I was excited, my true feelings were naturally revealed, but now I am back to reality...
Nicole looked sad these days, and the gaze that looked at Roddy intentionally or unintentionally seemed to be a bit resentful. Roddy really doesn't know how to deal with this kind of thing. He felt a little guilty for Nicole in his heart, but in the face of Danyuewu, he couldn't be indifferent.
Roddy can only try to avoid the opportunity for a few people to meet. He tried his best to reduce the number of visits to the Duke’s Courtyard with Nivis. Stayed in the barracks most of the time. Dak did not show up after leaving with Nedith that day. Roddy went to Nedith's tavern to find him. Duck was recovering from his injuries, and Nedith simply disappeared.
Danyuewu seemed to run to the Duke's House every day, and Roddy was so scared to see the three women. I remembered that when I went back that day, Dan Yuewu and Nicole looked at their gazes, they were in desperation! Young Roddy may not frown in the face of the fiercest fight, but facing this kind of tenderness and resentment, he has no alternative.
In this world, women are more troublesome than swords, magic, and vampires!
A few days later, the imperial capital came.
General Gordon of the Royal Guard came to Xiqiu in person and brought the emperor's order.
The great Emperor Abbas XI of the empire has an order: court warrior, viscount of the empire, and officer of the Royal Guards, Roddy, is promoted to the commander of the Royal Guards for his credit for capturing vampires! He also ordered Roddy to return to the imperial capital on the same day, with another important task.
The responsibility of guarding the Duke of Tulip is the responsibility of the Three Thousand Royal Guards led by General Gordon.
Gordon announced the emperor's order, looking at Roddy standing in front of him with a complex expression. For this young man, Gordon always had some doubts in his heart. This guy named Roddy seemed to have suddenly fallen from the sky. After a war, he suddenly rose up like a new star. Suddenly he was appreciated by His Majesty the Emperor, and he was promoted from the captain of a Duke to the Viscount of the Empire, a court warrior, and now he is the commander of the Royal Guard!
The commander of the Royal Guard is an officer in command of 10,000 people! There are currently a total of five commanders in the fifty thousand royal guards. Except for Roddy, which one of the other four commanders was not born in a royal family with a background behind him?
Maybe... the rumor of the imperial capital is true... this Roddy is really the emperor's...
Thinking of this, Gordon immediately forced himself to stop this conjecture. Gordon, who has been in the power circle of the imperial capital for many years, knows very well that this kind of thing is not something he can think about, and he should not be concerned! The more you know this secret that involves the core of rights, the more dangerous it is!
Nicole and others found out that Roddy was going back to the imperial capital. Although Roddy was a little unhappy, in this situation, leaving for a while may be the best choice.
It's better than staying in Xiqiu, looking at the various eyes of three women every day and sandwiching herself in the middle.
In the Duke’s Court, the public and General Gordon handed over the army, and Roddy set off for the imperial capital that day. Nicole finally couldn't stand it and hugged Roddy hard in front of everyone, and she shed tears.
Gordon was stunned-he came from the imperial capital. In Xiqiu City, the relationship between Roddy and the eldest lady of the Tulip family is known to everyone, but Gordon does not.
The officers of Thor's Whip and the Royal Guards nearby looked at the pair of separated lovers with kind smiles on their faces. Roddy sighed, knowing in his heart that hiding from Nicole these days is a bit too much, he couldn't help but hug her hard, then kissed her on the forehead, what he wanted to say, but didn't know. After thinking for a long time, I simply said three words: "You wait for me."
With a team of cavalry of his own, Roddy left Xiqiu and went back to the imperial capital.
As he walked out of the courtyard of the Ducal Palace, Roddy glanced back at the tallest building in the courtyard. Although in this public farewell, due to the public relationship between Roddy and Nicole, Miao Ge could not show up, but Roddy believed that at this moment Miao Ge must be hiding above the tall building and looking at him.
With a deep wave of his hand, Roddy gritted his teeth and raised his whip fiercely, leading people away from the road.
A group of people Qingqi drove the road, naturally much faster than when they came to Xiqiu. Andy suddenly let himself go back to the imperial capital, although he didn't know what it was for, but from the "return on the same day" on his order, there must be something urgent.
When Roddy was in Thor's Whip, he was accustomed to this kind of rapid marching. The cavalry around him was also well-trained, and he felt the imperial capital in just three or five days.
With doubts in his heart, Roddy went straight into the palace.
Strangely, Andy did not see himself alone. Roddy led the way down to a side room where the emperor usually discusses matters, but he unexpectedly saw the military minister, Marquis Caroline, standing there.
Seeing Roddy walk in, the Marquis Caroline smiled at him and nodded slightly. In any case, the Marquis of Caroline has already placed the treasure on Roddy, and the description of himself that day after Baron Gadal came back makes the Marquis of Caroline convinced that Roddy is definitely a promising guy!
Although it was a little surprised to see the Marquis of Caroline, Roddy did not show it on his face, but simply performed courtesy to the old Marquis.
Before His Majesty came out, the Marquis of Caroline laughed in a low voice: "Your Excellency Roddy, how nice is the scenery of Xiqiu?"
Roddy replied immediately: "Everything is fine, thank you Lord Marquis for your concern!" After thinking about it, Roddy added: "I also want to thank Lord Marquis for your care."
No matter what, people gave themselves a treasured knife, thank you always.
The old marquis smiled cordially on his face and whispered in a low voice: "Your Excellency Roddy, I have also heard about you and Miss Nicole. If there is anything I can help, please don't hesitate to say. Hmm..." He groaned. , Smiled and said: "This time, His Majesty the Emperor has an important task to entrust to you. After the matter is done, I can come forward to propose marriage to the Duke Tulip for you!"
Roddy smiled in his heart: These words are an official win. The so-called "entrusted responsibility" must imply that this is a great contribution to me, and he suggested that I do it. Don't forget his promotion after the job is done. The suggestion of marriage is even more an emotional investment: after all, his current status is not high in name. If he wants to marry the eldest lady of the Tulip family, a small viscount may not be enough. However, it is different if the empire's giant military minister proposes a marriage.
Roddy smiled, thinking what to say to deal with, Andy had already walked in with a fat Royal Guard officer.
Andy now pretends that the emperor is more alike as he pretends, his face is majestic and indifferent, he really looks like an emperor. But Roddy caught sight of Tian Lie who was next to him and blinked at him secretly, a bit of teasing in his eyes.
"Two old guys, what tricks are they playing!" Roddy couldn't help feeling numb.
Andy coughed slightly, and said with a stern face: "Viscount Roddy, I heard that you caught a vampire in Xiqiu, very good!" The old skeleton set the emperor's frame and then looked at Caroline. The Marquis said: "Marquis Caroline, the military's award to Viscount Roddy has been done?"
Caroline was stunned for a moment. Hasn't he already been rewarded? Promoting from an officer to commander, that has already jumped a few levels.
Although I don’t know what the emperor meant, since his majesty spoke, the Marquis Caroline had to contemplate the emperor’s thoughts seriously. After pondering for a while, the old fox tentatively said: "Viscount Roddy has now assumed the position of commander. Regarding the military's awards, there are no other actions. Your Majesty means..."
Andy pretended to sigh, glanced at the Marquis Caroline, and said, "Since that matter has been decided to let Roddy do it, his current status seems a bit inappropriate... after all, to represent the empire. Only if you have a commensurate status."
The Marquis Caroline's eyes lit up and he immediately said loudly: "Yes! Your Majesty, in view of Viscount Roddy's meritorious service in guarding the Tulip Duke in Xiqiu, and his great meritorious deeds in capturing the blood race, I suggest that his Majesty grant Viscount Roddy an extra reward!"
Andy blinked and smiled on his face: "Oh? What do you mean by Marquis Caroline?"
The old marquis couldn't help cursing in his heart: "You want to promote your illegitimate son, but you want me to speak up and find you a step." Of course, his face was absolutely afraid to show it, he groaned, and said slowly: " Viscount Roddy’s military position is now in command. At his age, this military position is no longer low. Your Majesty...I think Viscount Roddy is given some other rewards, such as knighthood..."
Andy couldn't help sighing in his heart: Old fox, he is indeed an old fox, it is so exquisite, it makes sense. The four words "figure the meaning" have already become superb. Such a well-behaved fellow, my old man originally wanted to cross the river to tear down the bridge, and he would find a way to kill you as soon as the matter was over, but now I am really reluctant.
After pretending to think for a while, Andy slowly said: "Let's do it, give Roddy the title of chief warrior of the court, is it a knighthood? Promote to the next level!"
Roddy was a little at a loss-why was he promoted suddenly? If the viscount is promoted to one level, that is the earl!
count? ?
Although a little puzzled, there must be a reason Andy did this.
Immediately Andy said: "Rody, I have been promoted to your title for a reason. There is a big thing for you to do right now. You have to represent the empire, and your original viscountry title is not enough. This Only then has you been promoted to earl..."
Roddy said nothing, waiting for the old skeleton to speak.
Although Roddy had guessed that this guy must have something special to do by himself, the next sentence of the old skeleton still made him almost jump.
Andy squinted his eyes, smiled at Roddy, and slowly said, "Earl Roddy, you can go to Roland for a trip."
