Chapter 1329 Return to the Treehouse
Ronald and Catalina entered the treehouse and worked their way up.
This time they entered it, but they were subjected to a review of their identity.
After all, the wartime situation was different from the past, especially in the workplace of an important person like Congressman Dalman. Even if the people at the door knew the identities of Ronald and Ronald, they still did not dare to skip the necessary process.
Ronald and the two of course cooperated with the staff's request.
After checking their identities and explaining the situation, they were allowed to go up the steps inside the tree house.
Compared to what I experienced the day before.
There were obviously personnel changes at the tree house this morning.
There were fewer faces that Ronald had seen in his field of vision, and there were many strangers that he had never seen before.
Temporarily Hamno has transformed the office of Dalman, the city councilor, into a command post used in wartime!
Ronald didn't even have to look closely.
Just by looking at the magic power fluctuations and emotional changes of these people, it can be seen that they are middle-level personnel directly involved in this war. Their responsibilities are probably responsible for information communication and analysis and judgment of related strategies.
"..."
"Ronald, you may think it's very 'magical' when you say it!"
This scene seemed to arouse some of Catalina's imagination.
So during the short time she walked up the stairs, she joked to Ronald with great interest:
"When we were preparing for the revenge war against the real world, the Wizard of Barrier Mountain actually had no attitude toward war. These people are professionals."
Ronald was not that surprised:
"After all, there are specializations in the arts."
"The wizards of Barrier Mountain can achieve such excellent results in the field of mysterious research, and it is perfectly possible for them to be deficient in other aspects. I understand."
Catalina showed a very disdainful look:
"What you said is enough to give me face! There is no specialization in any art, but it is just to devote everything to the so-called magic research, and then ignore the rest. They are just stupid wizards."
At this point, Catalina lowered her head slightly and added with some self-deprecation:
"Of course, I am the same."
"..."
Ronald did not respond this time.
Because in just a few words, the two of them had already reached the floor where Representative Dalman's office was located.
He walked forward and saw that the door was not closed.
And there were vague sounds of heated discussions.
Bang, bang, bang--
Ronald knocked on the door gently, and then waited for a few seconds.
After the discussion inside disappeared, he pushed open the door and appeared with Catalina in front of everyone.
"Ah? Mr. Ronald!"
Representative Dalman's excited tone immediately rang in the office.
At the same time, Ronald could also see several solemn-looking spellcasters gathered around Congressman Dahlman who looked delighted. The desk that was originally filled with government documents was now replaced with a clearly marked military map.
no doubt.
These people were the military personnel who came to discuss the direction of the war with Dalman.
They looked at the two Ronalds who walked into the office, with different expressions in their eyes. Some of them had a hint of disdain on their faces, but others, like Congressman Dalman, were very optimistic about the arrival of the two.
When they first met, they looked at each other.
Councilor Dahlman had come around from behind his desk.
Before Ronald and Catalina approached the desk, he stood in front of them in advance.
On the one hand, this action expressed his warm welcome to the two people.
At the same time, he also used his body to cover the military map on the desk behind him, which was a very clever move.
Ronald saw through this, but did not reveal it.
He smiled at Senator Dalman as usual, and then asked:
"Congressman Dalman, at your invitation, Catalina and I are here."
"If there is anything that needs to be done, we can talk now. Have we talked?"
At this time, it was obvious that someone among the officers wanted to step forward and say something to Ronald.
But one of his colleagues stopped the man in his tracks.
The two people pulling together made a lot of noise.
Noticing this, Councilor Dalman looked at the two people with very complicated eyes, then turned his head and put on a warm smile again towards Ronald and Catalina: "Of course, of course
we have I need to leave the matter to you two!"
"To tell you the truth, a few hours ago at night, Ramo, whom I summoned, was on official business outside the city with some of his subordinates, and then he happened to bump into the advancing Linyin City army..."
Ronald glanced around and found that there was no trace of the big devil here.
Such tense moments.
Ramo should be guarding his summoner!
"Lamer is not here now?"
Hearing Ronald's question, Representative Dalman shook his head regretfully:
"According to the two people who escaped by chance, Lamer was probably already in the first attack with the army. Died. But as a summoner, I can vaguely feel his aura, but now I can't contact him." "..."
Ronald
was speechless for a moment.
Of course you can't be contacted...
because after the first collision with the army last night, the big devil prioritized self-preservation and disappeared without a trace.
The fact that he still maintains the contractual relationship with Representative Dalman is probably a small move made by this guy out of luck.
Ronald was quite speechless, but he did not directly reveal the great demon Ramo's plan.
At the same time, Representative Dalman also began to state his true purpose:
"If Ramo was not killed, then with his flexible mobility, there is a task that undoubtedly needs to be entrusted to him. But unfortunately, now I have His help has been temporarily lost."
Representative Dalman said this, and Ronald had already guessed the next development.
So he took the lead and said:
"So you want us two magicians with sufficient strength to replace Lamer in carrying out an important task?"
Councilor Dalman quickly began to nod attentively.
Prove that what Ronald said is true.
But Catalina, who was standing aside, said a very sharp sarcasm at this moment:
"Dalman, our initial contract did not include such a task. We are now at a tense moment of war, and you suddenly want to add tasks beyond the contract for us. Isn't this inappropriate?" Representative Dahlman smiled
. Instantly frozen on the face.
Not only was his mentality froze, but the memory of being bullied by Catalina also came to his mind, causing him to lose his voice for a moment.
And just when he didn't react.
The officer who had shown an impulsive attitude just stepped forward and said loudly:
"Hamono wouldn't have asked outsiders like you if no one was available!"
"Do you think we are really willing to do this kind of task? Leave it to you?"
