"Did the leader want to see for sothing?" Rosen imdiately thought of what happened during the day. He had given Team 1 a stern lesson, perhaps this matter wasn’t over so quickly.
Team 1 definitely wouldn’t let it go easily, maybe they even took the opportunity to complain.
Thinking of this, Rosen told the people outside, "Understood, I’ll go imdiately."
Once the people outside left, Rosen quickly freshened up and then went to see the leader.
The room where the leader of the Guard Team lived was quite upscale, at least twice the size of Rosen’s living environnt, around a hundred square ters.
This space was equivalent to an average family’s ho, making it quite large for one person to live in, and the interior decoration was high-end and looked very nice.
However, that wasn’t the main focus, because from the window, Rosen could see the leader standing with his hands behind his back.
Moonlight fell on his face, showing his old age and sternness.
Rosen knocked on the door.
"Co in."
Rosen opened the door and entered, coming to the leader’s side who was looking at the night scenery outside, and asked, "Leader, what do you need for tonight?"
The leader just turned his head, his gaze deep as he looked at Rosen.
"This morning, Team 1’s leader ca to again, asking for your dismissal. But of course, I won’t do that. Our Guard Team has many unwritten rules set by those with ulterior motives, but I don’t acknowledge those here. I value fairness and order."
This statent made Rosen feel a sense of camaraderie and he said, "I didn’t expect the leader to be soone with a righteous heart."
"Otherwise, do you think I’m soone who would allow Team 1’s leader to wreak havoc? Is my heart also dark?"
Rosen shook his head but didn’t deny it; he had thought that before.
The leader said, "The Guard Team isn’t just under my command. I have superiors whose orders I must obey, and Team 1’s leader was deployed here by them, do you understand what I an?"
"You an Team 1’s leader has a deep background?"
"Yes, not just his background, even his strength is recognized by the Guard Team."
The leader said, "Every ti there’s a major Demon Race invasion, it’s always Team 1’s leader who leads the resistance against the main forces of the Demon Race. His contributions to the Guard Team can’t be underestimated, and I have no reason to dismiss him, do you understand what I an?"
"I understand. You want to turn a blind eye to him in the future?" Rosen nodded.
Seeing Rosen’s wisdom, the leader smiled and said, "That’s good. Our Guard Team can’t lack a core team, or else the power to defend the towns would be much weaker. If the town falls, our guilt would be imnse."
Towns are the cradle of the lord, with schools that nurture new lords and a structure that surrounds the lord’s developnt. If it’s destroyed, Central Plains will lack certain successors.
"Leader, but have you considered that soone could replace Team 1 and beco the core team?" Rosen smiled but instead asked.
The leader blinked and smiled at Rosen, saying, "Having the intention is enough. However, unless you make certain contributions and let others see your strength and honor, I can’t easily promote you."
Seemingly thinking of sothing, the leader looked at Rosen and said, "A week from now is the day of this year’s major Demon Race invasion."
"At that ti, the number of Demon Race erging from the abyss will double, and more will break through the front line and invade the towns. Then, if you perform well and achieve the first kill, I’ll give you a chance to replace Team 1’s leader."
Upon hearing this, Rosen’s expression changed.
A week later is when the major Demon Race tide will arrive. This news has been spread for a long ti and is an annual habit, but it was overshadowed by the news that Tang Xichen is the chosen one, and thus not many people noticed.
However, there’s a rumor outside that says with the appearance of the chosen one, the power of the Demon Race tide will be stronger than in previous years.
The credibility of this rumor is uncertain, but it’s certain that the appearance of the chosen one will likely stimulate a larger scale invasion by the Demon Race.
"Rest assured, leader, I will do my best then." Rosen said.
Pursuing a position in the Guard Team is indeed urgent, and the Demon Race tide invasion cos at this critical juncture.
With sufficient status, future matters will be easier to handle, and his reputation can rise significantly. At that ti, not only will he receive enough training, but the reputation can also qualify him for the bodyguard level and give him a chance to beco a Tang Family bodyguard.
It’s important to note that due to the speculation about the chosen one, the Tang Family’s reputation is already very high, and not everyone can beco a Tang Family bodyguard.
...
A week later.
First, news cos from the front lines.
The Order Faction and the Chaos Faction have temporarily stopped fighting, jointly resisting the large number of Demon Race erging from the abyss!
The lords from both faction formations have emptied their armies from their Lord Worlds, striving to kill at the abyss entrance.
The number of Demon Race erging this year is, as the rumor predicted, simply doubled, surprisingly, fivefold.
Therefore, both the Order Faction and the Chaos Faction are struggling in their fight with the Demon Race.
Moreover, ssages from the front lines said that this year’s Demon Race is at least twice as strong as before!
Upon hearing this ssage, the major families in Central Plains seed to have had a shot of adrenaline.
They gathered the entire strength of their families, prepared and vigilant.
The town where Rosen is located is where the Tang Family is stationed.
Many Tang Family mbers also ca to the Guard Team’s station, preparing to battle the Demon Race.
Rosen didn’t see Tang Xichen among the Tang Family mbers but did see Tang Xuanze leading the group.
"Patriarch Tang." Rosen imdiately went up and greeted.
"Xiaozhang, you’re actually here, so thoughtful to co and support voluntarily?" Seeing Rosen, Tang Xuanze was in a good mood.
"But wait, where is your army?"
However, he quickly beca puzzled.
"Alas, Patriarch Tang, you may not know. Ever since my debut in the championship, my territory was discovered, ambushed by a group of foreign experts, destroyed my territory, and nearly killed ," Rosen sighed.
"What?! I didn’t expect foreign assassins to act so quickly!"
Tang Xuanze said with so regret, "But it’s okay, you can actually join our Tang Family and beco one of us. The Tang Family will be your support!"
Tang Xuanze always wanted to win over Rosen, but Rosen knew that once he joined the Tang Family, belonged to them, he would have no chance to pair with Tang Xichen.
Even if he joins the Tang Family, he wants it to be as a son-in-law; otherwise, he wants to enter the Tang Family through a formal bodyguard route. This way, his identity won’t belong to the Tang Family.
Thinking of this, Rosen imdiately declined, "Appreciate your kindness, Patriarch Tang, but for now, I have no plans to join any family."
"I know, it’s because of Xichen, you feel that if you beco a Tang family mber, there will be no chance." Tang Xuanze said.
"This..." Rosen was montarily at a loss for words, his thoughts unexpectedly guessed.
"Loving soone doesn’t an you have to possess them. If you can stay by Xichen’s side, it’s better than longing from afar. Every day you don’t join the Tang Family is a day wasted," Tang Xuanze said.
Ah, this!? Rosen didn’t expect Tang Xuanze to say such things.
