Chapter 1031 The dusty lord and comprehensive upgrade
"Is our overall strength of illusions insufficient?"
Hearing Shirley's helpless voice, Lei Xiao did not give up, but continued to ask: "May I ask Your Majesty the Saint, what are the conditions needed to activate the most basic phantom magic circle?"
"Your Excellency, we need at least five fifth-level illusion powerhouses, or more low-level illusion powerhouses gathered together. The overall strength is comparable to five fifth-level illusion powerhouses."
Shirley's starry eyes moved and looked at Xiao Huan on Lei Xiao's shoulder, as well as Erza, Mia, and Xiao Ya standing respectfully beside them.
"Your flying little pet is considered a fifth-level powerhouse. As for the overall strength of the remaining three people, even if they all touch the half-step fifth-level threshold, at most they can only be regarded as a qualified fifth-level powerhouse in the illusion system.
."
"In other words, your current Excellency has barely met two-fifths of the conditions for activating the illusion array, and there are still gaps for three fifth-level powerhouses."
Shirley's fair face was full of helplessness, she shook her head and said: "Through your previous words, the little girl knows that in today's human countries, strong illusionists are extremely rare, so she can only do nothing to help."
Listening to Shirley's words, Erza, Mia and Xiaoya all lowered their heads, looking helpless.
Among them, Erza, the chief illusionist of the royal family, understands this clearly.
Except for himself, the combined strength of the other illusionists in the Lengyan Palace can only rival that of a fourth-level illusionist.
However, the gap of three fifth-level powerhouses requires at least 30 fourth-level illusionists to fill it, which is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket.
As for outside the palace, there are very few powerful illusionists who can master it.
Let alone a Cold Flame Kingdom, even if we look at the seven human kingdoms today, it is probably difficult to gather the combat power of an illusionist equivalent to three fifth-level powerhouses.
"Lord, as far as I know, the last fifth-level illusion powerhouse in the human kingdoms is none other than Rose King Esther of the Cold Flame Kingdom, known as the Queen of Illusion, but she has fallen for more than 100 years.
, after her, there will no longer be a strong fifth-level illusionist in the human nations."
Erza's slender pointed ears drooped and she shook her head helplessly.
Even in the dark elf kingdom where she lives, she is the only fourth-level peak illusionist.
"understood."
Lei Xiao is naturally very aware of the situation of the human nations.
Lei Xiao first nodded to Erza, then turned to Shirley and asked: "Your Excellency, Chief Priest, if I really find all the combat power that is enough to activate the illusion array, the effectiveness of the illusion array can be
To what extent?"
"Your Excellency, although this is just the most basic illusion magic circle of my phantom clan, as long as the release location is selected, there is no problem in trapping an army of one million or even two million for a period of time."
Shirley's delicate face was full of confidence and pride, and she said seriously: "This is enough to buy you time to concentrate on other directions, and add a small glimmer of hope for the victory of the war."
"Can it allow me to resist the army from another direction? It is simply a life-saving magic circle."
Lei Xiao nodded heavily and responded: "Understood, I will find enough illusion combat power within the next few days, and then I will ask the chief priest to provide full assistance."
"Don't worry, if you can really meet the conditions, this little lady will go all out."
Shirley nodded slightly and said without hesitation.
"Then I would like to thank the Chief Priest first."
Lei Xiao slowly took a deep breath, as if he remembered something, and then said: "Your Excellency, Chief Priest, can you let my subordinates stay here, please give me some advice in advance?"
"No problem. It just so happens that the little girl gets bored by herself after she wakes up, so having someone to accompany her is naturally the best thing."
Shirley nodded without hesitation and agreed: "It is also the responsibility of the little girl, the chief priest, to pass on the phantom magic that has been long forgotten by time."
"The help from the Phantom Tribe and the Chief Priest is unforgettable and is an honor for me."
Lei Xiao first saluted Shirley, then turned to Erza, Mia, and Xiaoya and said: "You can stay here for the next few days. This is an extremely rare opportunity to learn. When the time comes, stop me."
The heavy responsibility of the army along the way will be left to you."
"As you command, Lord Lord!"
The three illusionists all raised their chests and saluted, their fair faces full of determination.
"Then Xiaohuan and I will leave first. With her by my side to protect you, you can just practice with peace of mind."
Lei Xiao waved his hand and turned to leave, and soon he and Xiao Huan disappeared at the end of the temple.
When Lei Xiao's figure completely disappeared, Shirley stood in front of Erza, Mia, and Xiaoya, raised her eyebrows and said: "Your master seems to be very confident. He can really find the equivalent of three people."
Is it the combat power of a fifth-level illusion powerhouse?"
"We believe that the Lord will definitely find it! Because the Lord has created impossible miracles one after another!"
Although she had no clue at all, Erza's face was still full of determination, while Mia and Xiaoya beside her also nodded heavily.
"It seems that his status in your hearts is high and unshakable."
A trace of envy appeared on Shirley's fair face, and she murmured in her heart: "You are really lucky to meet such a master. I hope he can really meet the conditions."
"Your Excellency, Chief Priest, why do you spare no effort to help the lord?"
Xiaoya blinked her shining starry eyes, and some doubts appeared on her delicate face.
"Don't forget that he is the first person to pass the test of my Phantom Clan with fourth-level strength. This is a great achievement that has never been done before or since."
Xue Li smiled and responded: "Furthermore, he is the chosen son of the God who has long since ceased to be favored by the gods. It may be an honor for the Phantom Clan and this little girl to be able to assist such an extraordinary person."
…
Returning to the Patriarch's castle, Lei Xiao went straight to the venue for the Patriarch's appointment ceremony, and the specific location was in the courtyard outside the Patriarch's castle.
Walking into the lively venue, Lei Xiao noticed.
With the full support of Keen and other elders, the commanders of various Merchant Army regiments, as well as Gale, Kelly and other side members, coupled with Lin's outstanding performance and extremely outstanding abilities in the past few days.
Therefore, the official appointment as the new head of the Shanglu family was welcomed by the public and won waves of cheers.
Ariel's arrival and the ensuing awarding ceremony excited countless merchants present.
At the end of the ceremony, when Lei Xiao himself stood in the center of the venue, he instantly detonated the entire venue, bringing the entire ceremony to a perfect conclusion.
Afterwards, under Lin's guidance, Lei Xiao went to the Shangluc family treasure house that had been sorted out.
According to Lei Xiao's instructions, not only are there the treasures of the Shanglu family, but also the third-level and above equipment of the Shanglu family, as well as all the magic potions, magic scrolls and other items.
The location of the treasure house is also in the castle of the head of the family, which is full of institutions.
"Okay, leave the rest to me."
Lei Xiao looked at the huge and glittering treasure warehouse and rolled up his sleeves.
After a smooth upgrade, Lei Xiao not only easily obtained the third-level equipment that is enough to equip all merchant army regiments, but also obtained a lot of fourth-level equipment and fifth-level equipment.
As for potions and magic scrolls, they have also gained a lot.
In addition to a dozen fifth-level magic scrolls, I even got two extremely precious fifth-level healing potions.
"As expected of the Phytolacca family, one of the richest families, I have obtained a total of more than 200,000 healing potions alone, as well as hundreds of thousands of magic scrolls. These will undoubtedly greatly improve the survivability and ability of Phytococcus soldiers.
Combat ability."
Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction and took most of the fourth-level equipment, potions, magic scrolls, and all fifth-level items into his bag, while all the items below fourth level were left where they were.
At a glance, even though Lei Xiao took away most of the high-level items, the fourth-level items stored in the treasure house are still much fuller than before, which is completely different.
As for lower-level equipment, magic potions, magic scrolls and other items, they are piled up like mountains, almost bursting the treasure house.
After upgrading the treasure library, Lei Xiao upgraded several of the Phytolacca family's equipment libraries in sequence, bringing the Phytolacca family's reserve equipment to an unprecedented level.
At this point, even if the soldiers' equipment is severely worn on the battlefield, they can easily replace it with new ones without having to wait for the blacksmith to repair them one by one.
In the process, Lei Xiao also gave Keen and other elders a full set of fifth-level equipment that they had promised before.
Finally, under the blank gazes of Lin and the elders, Lei Xiao, Ariel and other subordinates disappeared into the hall of the family master's castle and went directly to the next destination: the main city of the Lancaster family, Pterodactyl.
city.
After Old Isaac's respectful reception, Lei Xiao and Ariel's process was almost the same as before. After the ceremony of appointing the head of the family, they also upgraded the treasure house of the Lancaster family.
Needless to say about the appointment ceremony, under Isaac's extremely capable clean-up, the remnants of the previous head of the family, Stone, have long since disappeared. Today's Lancaster family can be said to be united and has high morale, especially towards Lei Xiao and Ariel.
The horse's head is right.
This point was undoubtedly within Lei Xiao's expectation.
After all, Isaac has become his direct subordinate, and he spares no effort in doing things, and everything is for the sake of the territory.
The upgrade of the Lancaster family's treasure house and equipment warehouse is roughly the same as that of the Phytolacca family, but this time, Lei Xiao received more than 300 rose energy-gathering pills.
"After the recent Battle of Kelburg, the core strength of the three giants suffered varying degrees of losses, so let's give each of the three families 100."
"This is enough for each wealthy family to have 100 more capable third-level strong men, who will become the mid-level backbone of each legion and further supplement their combat power."
After making up his mind, Lei Xiao left 100 rose energy-gathering pills, and then headed non-stop to Black Dragon City, the main city of the Yorkman family, with Ariel and others.
Just after being teleported to the main hall of the family's castle in Black Dragon City, a damp and sultry breath hit my face.
"As expected of the extreme south of the kingdom, it is completely different from the dry west."
While Lei Xiao was sighing, Old Colson had already led a group of elders from the Yorkman family to greet him respectfully.
After that, Lei Xiao and Ariel, who were received with the highest standards by the stars throughout the whole process, naturally still participated in the appointment ceremony of the head of the family, upgraded the treasure library and equipment library, and a series of other matters.
By the time Lei Xiao finished everything, the sky was already filled with stars.
At this point, the equipment upgrades of the three giants have been completed, reaching the level of third-level equipment for all members, healing potions for all members, and magic scroll blessings for all members.
Even among the most elite core main legions of the human nations, this is already the most top-notch configuration.
With the blessing of such top-level configurations, although it still cannot compete head-on with the opponent's overwhelming soldiers, it can at least further improve the combat capabilities of the soldiers and prevent them from collapse at the first touch.
"Lord, the dinner is ready. Please move to the banquet hall with Her Majesty the Queen."
In the exclusive lounge for the royal family in the castle of the Yorkman family, Colson, who had just been appointed as the head of the Yorkman family, knelt down in front of Lei Xiao with a look of reverence on his old face.
"Very good, let's take a look at the members of the Yorkman family."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and then he and Ariel walked towards the castle's banquet hall, surrounded by a group of main subordinates.
When Lei Xiao and Ariel both entered the venue, there was no need to say how many Yorkman people were rejoicing in the magnificent banquet hall.
While Lei Xiao enjoyed the top-notch food, he also boosted his morale and won waves of cheers and applause.
Accompanied by the cheers of "Long live His Royal Highness, Long live Her Majesty the Queen", Lei Xiao left 100 rose energy pills and set off on his return journey with Ariel and other subordinates.
Under Lei Xiao's instructions, the group first went to Lin to leave the last 100 Rose Focus Pills, and then returned to the royal capital in a dusty journey.
Walking with Ariel in the quaint corridors of the Lion's Castle, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully while reviewing the matters of going to the three wealthy families.
After a day of upgrading, my reserve of items above level 4 has obviously been replenished to a whole new level, especially the complete sets of level 4 equipment, which have increased several times.
"Although these fourth-level equipment cannot be deployed on a large scale for legion-level troops, they are completely sufficient for the direct subordinates covering the territory and the elite guards guarding the royal family."
"These two are my core, so let's equip all the direct subordinates of the territory first. Previously, only the third-level squadron was equipped with fourth-level equipment. This time, I will simply change all the equipment, and then equip the third-level royal family.
Elite squadron."
Lei Xiao was thinking this as he came to a heavy metal door. This is where the royal family's treasure house is located. ()
