At this moment, facing the biting wind, Lei Xiao, who was riding on the giant white wolf, noticed.
This Fenglong City, located on the plain, is almost the same size as Shuiyue City, but it appears to be much more regular.
Outside the towering city walls, there are patches of green wheat fields, as if there are some light patches on the vast turquoise plain.
And a gurgling blue river passes through the wheat fields and merges into the moat outside the city wall.
Under the bright sunshine, the sparkling water surface intersects with the green of the wheat fields, which looks particularly eye-catching.
"Is this Dragon Sealing City? I heard Xue Ya describe it before.
Different from the tourist city Shuiyue City, Fenglong City is involved in agriculture, handicrafts and commerce, and is a comprehensive medium-sized city."
At this time, as he continued to advance and looked at the increasingly taller city wall in the distance, Lei Xiao moved his eyes and continued to observe.
Not far from Fenglong City, the large and towering peaks of the Songyin Mountain Range are still clearly visible and look extremely spectacular.
Observing this, Lei Xiao lowered his body and buried the side of his face in the thick white wolf fur, while he couldn't help but look thoughtful.
He murmured to himself: "Sealing Dragon City and Shuiyue City are both located on the edge of the eastern edge of the Lengyan Kingdom where the territory is located.
From here, troops can be sent directly into the hinterland of Leng Yan.
We can also rely on the Songyin Mountains to cut off the eastern region of Lengyan and the connection with other regions of Lengyan. The geographical location is extremely important."
Realizing this in a flash, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes and continued to think: "According to our current plan, after successfully subduing Ariel.
Support Ariel to ascend the throne and take the first step to become the Queen of Cold Flame.
Naturally, it means to completely control the entire eastern region of Leng Yan.
Use this as a foundation to form a situation in which the three princes' respective forces compete with Leng Yan's other areas."
Looking at the surrounding scenery that was constantly sweeping back, Lei Xiao's eyes were as bright as a torch.
He muttered: "With Ariel Lengyan's identity as the fifth princess, coupled with her own increasingly powerful energy.
As long as you are well prepared, completing this first step of the plan is obviously not a difficult task.”
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao fell into deep thought again, thinking to himself: "Of course, this is just a rough framework.
There are still many things that need to be completed in the middle, such as how to mobilize the army to attack the city, how to paralyze the mysterious organization hiding in the dark, how to take advantage of the border confrontation, etc.
All in all, at least judging from the current situation, everything is still going smoothly."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.
We can already clearly see our group of ten people wearing invisibility cloaks.
On the high walls of Fenglong City, there were a group of defenders holding sharp swords and wearing armors, as well as carriages and people coming and going at the city gate.
"Judging from this peaceful and ordinary picture.
It is simply unimaginable that there is a red dragon sealed underground here that can easily destroy a city."
At this time, observing the bustling scene not far away, Lei Xiao couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.
"Lord, it seems that the three fifth-level red dragons have not arrived here yet!"
On the other side, Xue Ya's fair and delicate face couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy, and she said excitedly: "According to the lord's plan, we have indeed caught up!"
"Next, as long as we suppress the red dragon underground, our main task will be completed."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao said to the subordinates beside him: "Okay, let's not delay.
Xue Ya is leading the way, let’s go directly to the place where the dragon is sealed underground.”
"Yes! Lord!" Hearing this, the light blue magic wings behind Xue Ya vibrated and came to the front of the team.
A moment later, he continued to gallop on the rooftops of the lively neighborhood.
A large castle in the center of the city has already caught the eyes of our group.
"For your information, Lord Lord, that is the city lord's palace of our Dragon-Fengcheng City."
At this time, Xue Ya's clear voice reached Lei Xiao's ears again: "And the underground entrance to the Dragon Sealing Land is exactly in the City Lord's Mansion!"
"Understood, I'll leave the coordination to you." Lei Xiao nodded slightly, narrowed his eyes, and then responded.
"Please rest assured, Lord, my father will definitely jump with joy if I can see the Lord in person!"
On the other side, Xue Ya's slightly excited sound came over again.
However, at this moment.
The rough voice of the knotweed sounded suddenly: "Lord Qi, there seems to be something wrong with the City Lord's Mansion ahead."
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and motioned to the knotweed beside him to continue.
"Lord, except for the soldiers guarding the outermost perimeter.
The other personnel inside the castle are very weak and seem to be in a coma."
Immediately afterwards, the slightly solemn voice of the knotweed came over again: "Originally, at first, my subordinates thought it was due to the underground hidden restriction and interference.
However, at this distance, the subordinates can already clearly perceive it.
There is indeed some unknown abnormal situation occurring within the City Lord’s Mansion.”
After Huzhang finished speaking, sisters Ye Cang, Chao Yan, and Nan Xing Nan Yue, who were all at the fourth level of strength, also nodded with solemn expressions.
This is because the various smells in the city are extremely chaotic.
Even as fourth-level experts, they could only vaguely sense that something was indeed unusual.
"How could this happen? What happened in the City Lord's Mansion? How are father and the others doing?"
Hearing this, Xue Ya, who was leading the way at the front of the team, suddenly had an uneasy look of nervousness and worry on her delicate fair face.
"Don't worry, everything will be solved."
First, he comforted Xue Ya by reading words, while Lei Xiao looked at the bustling neighborhood below and the ordinary residents with smiles on their faces.
He said solemnly, and ordered: "Go at full speed, no matter what happens in the castle, we must solve it before the three giant dragons arrive.
Otherwise, this city will undoubtedly be in danger."
"Yes! Lord!" After hearing this, the firm voices of all the subordinates came over.
Just like that, in just a moment.
Our group, still wearing invisibility cloaks, appeared in front of the gate of the courtyard outside the residence of the Lord of Fenglong City.
Of course, Xue Ya, who is the heir to the head of the Hyōryu family, and Aling, the head maid of the Hyōryu family, have already released their invisibility.
At this time, under the bright sunshine, the courtyard door leading to the quaint castle garden was tightly closed.
A group of Guards squadron soldiers wearing shining armor stood neatly and were faithfully performing their duties.
"Miss Xue Ya, you are back!"
Seeing Xue Ya's slender figure, the middle-aged team leader who was guarding the outside of the castle immediately ran over, bowed and clasped his fists with a respectful face and said: "I will inform the Lord of the City right now!"
At the same time, the other guards also showed expressions of excitement and reverence.
"No need." After receiving Lei Xiao's instructions, Xue Ya looked solemn and said calmly: "This young lady and A Ling can go in by themselves.
You should stay well outside, no one is allowed to enter here today without my order."
"It's an order!" Hearing this, even though he had a puzzled look on his face, the captain of the Guards Squadron still looked respectful and quickly ordered his subordinates to open the courtyard door leading to the castle.
Next, our group of ten people quickly passed through a large and neatly built courtyard.
The quaint castle that serves as the city lord's palace was completely displayed in front of Lei Xiao.
There was no time to marvel at the majesty and magnificence of the towering castle. At this time, the group could clearly observe it.
A group of soldiers guarding the gate of the castle had fallen to the ground.
At the same time, pass through the metal gate of the castle that has not yet completely fallen.
A strange energy fluctuation is slowly rippling out of it.
"For your information, Lord, there are no external injuries on these soldiers.
His breathing was steady and he was obviously in a coma of unknown origin."
On the other side, petite Nan Xing appeared in front of Lei Xiao after careful inspection, holding his fists in a sassy manner.
Immediately afterwards, Nanyue also fell from the sky, like a ghost, suddenly appeared in front of Lei Xiao, bowed a little shyly and said: "Qi...Qi Lord.
No suspicious signs were found around the castle."
At this time, I saw these two twin sisters with exquisite figures, both of whom looked a little excited. After all, these two people had not acted together with Lei Xiao for a while.
"I have to say that after advancing to the fourth level of power, the speed of these two girls is getting more and more terrifying."
He nodded slightly and signaled the two of them to stand by. Lei Xiao couldn't help but fell into deep thought again.
He murmured to himself: "It seems that, just as the knotweed said, there is indeed some kind of emergency situation here.
Moreover, judging from the current situation, this emergency situation is likely to spread from inside the castle."
Realizing this, Lei Xiao focused his attention on the strange energy that was constantly emanating from the door.
"Lord Qi, this abnormal energy fluctuation seems to be similar to the illusion.
But it is different from artificial illusions, naturally formed mirages, and the reflection of illusion crystals.
There is still a lot of violence in it.”
On the other side, I saw Ye Cang standing at the gate of the castle. After sensing it for a long time, he pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.
He bowed and reported with a puzzled look on his face: "This is the first time my subordinate has encountered such an unusual situation."
"Similar to an illusion, but different from an illusion?" Hearing this, a thoughtful look appeared on Lei Xiao's face again.
During this period of time, as he gained a better understanding of the world, Lei Xiao clearly understood.
Just like Ye Cang said just now, although the types of illusions are ever-changing, there are only three sources.
The first type is performed by the illusionist on site or arranged in advance.
The second type is a naturally occurring mirage.
The third type is the recorded illusion mapped by the illusion crystal.
"We have encountered these three types many times in the Half-Elf Barrier, Ancient Battlefield Ruins, Ancient Ships, and even in the Shanjing Principality not long ago.
However, this paradoxical situation has indeed never been encountered before.
So, what exactly happened inside the castle? Why did this abnormal illusion appear?"
After thinking about this, while full of curiosity and confusion, Lei Xiao couldn't help but shed a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead.
It is conceivable that if the current situation cannot be solved before the arrival of the three giant dragons and the red dragons in the Dragon Sealing Land are completely suppressed, things will undoubtedly be very dangerous.
However, in order to solve the current situation, it is natural to first understand the source of this abnormal illusion.
For a moment, the other subordinates who also realized this had a solemn expression on their faces.
Especially Xue Ya and A Ling both bit their red lips tightly, their uneasiness evident on their faces.
Once the worst happens, the city will be engulfed in the flames of revenge by several dragons in an instant.
"Lord Qi, my subordinates noticed a hint of dragon aura in this unusual illusion."
At this moment, the slightly confused voice of Huzhang reached Lei Xiao's ears again.
"The breath of the dragon? Has the dragon broken free from the seal?" Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao looked stern and asked immediately.
"Back to my lord, this is what is strange about this subordinate.
In the castle, my subordinates did not feel the energy fluctuations of the Dragon Clan, but there was just a trace of the Dragon Clan's aura rippling slightly in it." On the other side, Huzhang bowed again, with a puzzled expression on his face.
"Does the abnormal illusion contain the aura of the dragon clan..."
I saw Chao Yan on the side, blinking his iconic big eyes and pondering for a long time, and suddenly realized: "Lord, my subordinates know what this is, it is a dragon mirage!"
"Dragon mirage?" Upon hearing this unfamiliar term, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and motioned for Chaoyan to continue.
"For the information, Lord, I also happened to read about dragon mirages in a long-dusted ancient book in the large attic library of the Magic Tower where all things are recorded."
At this time, Chaoyan looked solemn, and then he sped up his speech and responded: "The so-called dragon mirage is a special illusion that is a hundred times rarer than naturally occurring mirages.
As for the reason for its formation, in addition to extremely accidental special conditions, the other most critical condition is the dream of the dragon clan itself.
In other words, dragon mirage is the dream materialization of the dragon!"
"Is it an illusion caused by a dream? It's kind of interesting."
After hearing this, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, and then said thoughtfully: "So, the sealed dragon is still sleeping?"
"Lord, that's exactly what it is." Nodding slightly, Chaoyan said again: "So, according to our previous plan.
As long as we can go deep underground and suppress that giant dragon, everything will naturally be solved."
"I understand." Hearing this, Lei Xiao smiled lightly and then said: "Then let me take a good look.
This dragon mirage is formed under extremely accidental conditions.
