Thinking of this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and thought to himself: "I hope that Jiang Li will not encounter any troubles and return to the territory as soon as possible. In this way, my strength will naturally rise to a new level again!"

"After all the current situation,

It is no longer optimistic. Just in the eastern region of Lengyan, the eldest prince and the second prince are equivalent to the legion-level combat power of more than a dozen fifth-tier powerhouses. On paper, they are already enough for the current territory.

pose no small threat. "

frowning slightly,

Lei Xiao was lost in thought again.

In addition, the news that Ariel, as the fifth princess, led the defenders of the mountain fortress and repelled the large-scale invasion of the holy night army should have reached the ears of the three princes, and the other party will definitely start the next move .

Moreover, the possibility of a certain prince sending another killer cannot be ruled out.

The most critical thing is that it is accompanied by the collection of intelligence from the other party.

As the Princess Keqing, the City Lord of Kongqing will soon be analyzed and deduced by the opponent, and then completely enter the sight of the opponent, plus the news that there are fifth-order powerhouses active on the battlefield.

What is certain is that the degree of threat to oneself will undoubtedly rise in a straight line in the minds of the three princes.

"Originally, according to the previous information, in the eyes of the three princes, I, the new Sky Lord who appeared suddenly, was just an insignificant guy, that's all.

It will not be cleaned up until the hands are free, and it belongs to the secondary eradication target in the secondary. "

"But now, since I have publicly sided with Ariel, the situation will naturally be completely different."

"Furthermore, once the fact that I have a fifth-tier powerhouse at the Zhenguo level under my command is confirmed by the other party, the other party will regard me and Ariel as absolute thorns in the road to power. Therefore, a big war is inevitable. .”

I saw Lei Xiao's brows furrowed even more tightly.

I continued to think in my heart: "However, on the bright side, I only control the small city of Kongqing Town, so it is not easy for the other party to attack with troops. After all, the three princes are also secretly restraining each other. contain."

"It can be imagined that once the flames of war ignite, no one wants to be that praying mantis that catches cicadas,

Give other opponents an opportunity, and this just gives me the opportunity to continue to develop secretly. "

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao frowned, then relaxed, and said in a deep thought: "When I thoroughly investigate the power of the three princes in this area, and control enough neutral cities and troops, it will naturally come to the battle." It's time to open."

"And, it is foreseeable that that day is not far away, and at the same time, the time left for me is already numbered."

Taking a deep breath of the fresh air filled with the ruins in the forest, Lei Xiao refocused on the messy and disorderly gravel of the fountain in front of him.

"By the way, according to what Old Xiaoer said just now, although he doesn't know what is in this secret treasure, what is certain is that there must be several fifth-level state-defending weapons in it, and they must be preserved. Very well."

"Not to mention anything else, if you can get the fifth-tier magical weapon and then upgrade it, if you are lucky enough to get a sixth-tier two-handed sword or a sixth-tier claw thorn, it will undoubtedly greatly increase the combat power of the knotweed stick and Hongye."

"In this way, whether it is on the future battlefield or in the case of single-handedly fighting against the opponent's fifth-order powerhouse, the two of them will be able to occupy a greater absolute advantage."

At this time, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully while looking at the desolate and ruined ruins.

At present, there are two sixth-order magical weapons on his body.

They are the cavalry spear [Purple Winged Dragon Spear] and the staff [The Other Side of Time].

【Purple Winged Demon Dragon Spear】Needless to say, even if it is given to Lin now, it will not be of much use, but will be coveted by the enemy.

And Jiang Li's staff [The Other Side of Time] can exert its greatest power because it is in the hands of the user with the blood of the elves.

Moreover, Lei Xiao had tried it before, and if he used it himself, its power would be between the fourth and fifth ranks, far less useful than the fifth rank [Stand of Nature].

Therefore, after weighing it over and over again, Lei Xiao did not give it to other subordinates during Jiang Li's absence.

After all, as I thought just now, Tier 6 equipment is too precious.

The rich splendor emanating from it is also far more difficult to suppress than fifth-tier weapons, and it is easy for the enemy to see the clues.

Therefore, once it is exposed, it is enough to make the holder immediately become the target of public criticism and besieged by jealous enemies.

In this case, not only the life of the owner is in danger, but also if it is damaged or taken away by the enemy, it will naturally be a matter of loss outweighs the gain.

"As for Hong Ye, he has met the conditions for using it, but he himself is extremely resistant to using the staff."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao couldn't help curling his lips slightly.

He said in his heart: "It's no wonder, after all, it was a red dragon soaring in the sky before. After it became a human form, it is still a good job to use sharp claws to attack, but it is indeed a bit difficult to be a dragon with a staff. , it takes a while to get used to it.”

"However, fortunately, due to Hong Ye's special physique, her spell power and magic power reserves are obviously better than ordinary fifth-level magic powerhouses, and the two can be regarded as canceling out."

Under the towering tree, looking at the ancient ruins covered in emerald green in front of him, Lei Xiao paced slowly, snapped his fingers and said: "In short, when the return date of Jiangli has not yet been determined, if we want to open this If it is a thousand-year secret treasure, do we still have to look for the descendants of the Loren royal family?"

At this moment, the phantom of the thin girl carrying the basket reappeared in Lei Xiao's mind.

"Sometimes the projected mirage is a scene that is happening now, and sometimes it is a scene that has happened in the past, but according to Chao Yan, even if it is a scene that has happened in the past, it will never be the same as It’s a long time now.”

"Thinking about it carefully, the reason why I feel familiar is very likely because the mirage is a scene from the past, and the real person I have seen with my own eyes is the appearance of a girl when she grows up. As the saying goes It is not surprising that such a situation occurs in the Eighteenth Change of Women's University."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao's eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood.

However, following this line of thought, when Lei Xiao went through all the local aborigines who were suspected to be the girl that he had seen since his time travel, he still found nothing.

"Where did I meet her? Who is she? Forget it, maybe if I see her again, I can remember it."

Shaking his head helplessly, Lei Xiao pondered for a while.

Then he said to the excited old blacksmith next to him: "Old Mr. Fang Hai, when we return to Kongqing Town, let the best painter in the city draw a picture of the mirage we just saw. A portrait of a young girl, and magically printed and reproduced.

Then, quickly send cronies to distribute it, and mobilize leaders from all over the place, as well as members of the Shadow Squadron, to conduct a secret search. If you find anything, be sure to report to me as soon as possible. "

"Obey! Please rest assured, my lord!"

On the other side, Fang Hai immediately bowed to accept his orders.

"Okay, now that the matter has come to an end, let's leave this forest first."

As the insects chirped and the katydids leapt, listening to the faint sound of the waterfall in the direction of Songyin Mountain Range not far away, Lei Xiao nodded again to his subordinates.

"Lord, why don't we take a trip to Lan Leng Castle?"

Burt pondered for a while, and then suggested: "Last time, Her Royal Highness said that this place is not far from Lan Leng Castle."

After a pause, Burt added: "Besides, as the city lord Orr mentioned before, as the leading brewing town in the eastern region of Lengyan, the wealth reserves of Laneng Castle should not be underestimated. In all aspects, it will definitely play a big role for us.”

"My lord, what Senior Bert said is very true. Even if we can't get it, we must never let it fall into the hands of the other princes!"

On the other side, a murderous look involuntarily appeared on the orange-white face, and he bowed to Lei Xiao.

"That's exactly what I mean."

Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao stepped onto the giant white wolf and continued to Princess Leng Yan, "Ariel, lead the way ahead. The target is Lan Leng Castle, a wine-making town!"

"Obey! Your lord!"

After bowing to Lei Xiao, Ariel stroked her chest and said in command.

Next, under the guidance of Ariel.

After some speeding, the group of people wearing the invisibility cloak again passed through this rather vast dense forest and galloped straight to the southeast plain.

Lei Xiao, who just flew out of the forest and came to the bright sunshine, was riding on the white giant wolf. While feeling the gust of wind whistling past his ears, he remembered Ariel's previous talk about the Lord of Lan Leng Castle. description of.

"The city lord named Marquis of Rose is named Shuanghua, which sounds like an unusual name."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao continued to think: "In addition, when he was young, this person used to be the royal winemaker of the Lengyan royal family, and had contact with Ariel."

"However, when Ariel mentioned this person at that time, the strange expression that surfaced showed that this person was obviously not an ordinary person. After all, it could make the arrogant and willful fifth princess of Lengyan show such a strange expression. It's the first time I've seen the expression."

At this time, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a more curious look on his face, and he began to look forward to it.

At present, there are no members of the Shadow Squadron stationed in Lan Lengbao.

According to the information obtained from Orr, the garrison here is about 5,000 people, but the population size is slightly smaller than that of Kongqing Town.

As for the pillar industry in the whole town, there is naturally only one kind, and that is brewing fine wine.

"The population is small, but there are such a large number of garrison troops. It seems that the financial resources of Lan Leng Fort really cannot be underestimated."

Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.

On the endless plain ahead, the blurred outline of a city has slowly begun to emerge.

At this time, what first appeared in front of Lei Xiao was a series of emerald green orchards, and what appeared next was a series of green wheat fields.

Under the bright sunshine, looking away, there are vibrant pictures everywhere, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

"It seems that these well-maintained orchards and wheat fields are the raw materials for winemaking."

Noticing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

Next, followed by another round of chasing after the wind.

Going forward, the green wheat fields on both sides of the road intersect with the narrow country roads, and the towering city walls in the distance gradually come into view of the group of people.

"Lord, the front is the outskirts of Lan Leng Fort, and we will arrive at our destination soon."

Immediately afterwards, Ariel's crisp voice reached Lei Xiao's ears through the words.

"Very good, first find a nearby hiding place, put on the illusion cloak, and let's start walking forward."

Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao immediately ordered to his subordinates.

In this way, after some illusion dressing, plus the self-prepared travel backpack and other items in the storage ring, Lei Xiao and others are no different from ordinary travelers.

After walking along the narrow gravel road for about ten minutes, a group of people who looked dusty and dusty stepped onto the neatly repaired wide avenue.

At this time, Lei Xiao noticed.

This avenue can be described as quite lively, and from time to time you can see groups of carriages filled with wine barrels, slowly driving past under the yelling and whipping of the coachmen.

The guards of these convoys are not only mercenaries in different dresses, but also many garrison soldiers with uniform equipment. Judging from the coat of arms engraved on the chest of the armor, they are obviously from other cities.

"My lord, this place is indeed a winemaking town. The subordinates can already smell the strong smell of fermented fruit, sour and sweet."

Bai Wei, who has a keen sense of smell, wrinkled her nose and whispered to Lei Xiao while sniffing lightly.

"You girl, what you said made my teeth a little sour."

With a helpless smile, Lei Xiao swallowed subconsciously~lightnovelpub.net~ However, before he could say anything else,

Bai Wei, who was at the side, suddenly became nervous, and hurried over again, whispering to Lei Xiao: "My lord, besides this, my subordinates also smelled a strange beast body odor. There seems to be some kind of dangerous monster lurking in the city!"

"oh?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a puzzled look on his face.

At this time, with brisk steps, the group of people were already approaching the gate of the city.

No trace of chaos or tension can be seen from the orderly business caravan, the travelers and drinkers, or the neatly lined garrison soldiers above and below the city.

"In such a well-ordered and peaceful town, how could there be traces of dangerous monsters?"

Realizing this, the puzzled expression on Lei Xiao's cheek became more and more obvious.
