At the gate of the fortress, looking at the weak and eager pleading on the other party's fair face, Lei Xiao's expression became more solemn.
Things couldn't be more obvious. Xina and her party must have encountered an ambush on their way back and were completely defeated. It is self-evident that the mastermind behind the scenes is the Lich.
"But if it were just a lich, he would never dare to be so unscrupulous on the territory of the Deserted Sand Alliance. It seems that the black sheep of the Deserted Sand Alliance must have surfaced, and they have made a move to cooperate with each other."
"The most important thing is that apart from the missing deputy leader, there are probably other strong men from the Desert Alliance participating, otherwise Xina would not have been defeated so cleanly."
Lei Xiao helped the trembling masked man in front of him up, and then noticed the traces of petrification on his body that had not completely dissipated.
This is what I am vaguely worried about, that is, the undercurrent hidden in the Desert Alliance is by no means limited to the deputy leader.
The most deadly one among them comes from the Gorgon clan to which Xina belongs. These petrified traces are the best proof.
"We'll talk after we go in."
Lei Xiao ordered Keith to help the masked man up again, and ordered Hanershu to close the city gate and fly straight into the city.
Not long after, Lei Xiao had already arranged the masked man in the room inside the fortress, while the other man kept supporting his body and told the whole story of the attack on Xina and others.
"Except for the werewolf deputy leader, are there indeed quite a few Gorgons? And the leader is the Wang sister of the leader of Huangsha. No wonder the other party is so unscrupulous."
Lei Xiao frowned and nodded thoughtfully.
Hanershu, Shuert and Kath, who had also heard all this, had already begun to look at each other with shock on their faces.
"Your Majesty the human race, please save the leader. If it's a little later, she may be in serious danger!"
Tears streamed down the masked man's fair face, and he pleaded: "Not only that, the command of the Desert Alliance army must have fallen into the hands of the other party, and they will attack here soon!"
"What?!"
Hearing what the other party said, Hanershu and the others almost jumped up, with beads of sweat immediately forming on their foreheads.
The strength of the Desert Alliance is comparable to that of the Rainforest Fortress Alliance. There are at least 30 elite fourth-level legions as the main force. Even if the defense forces in other directions are thrown away, the third-level legion can easily reach a million.
On the other hand, after a series of fierce battles, we currently have only 10 Tier 4 legions from all forces. Adding in the 10 Dark Elf legions whose strength has been affected, we can barely reach 20, and most of them are still scattered.
Among the many fortresses on the long border.
Under Lei Xiao's deployment, only the 10 fourth-level dark elf legions near Yingming Valley were the most complete. As for the number of the opponent's fifth-level and sixth-level powerhouses, they were far greater than ours.
If the opponent launches a large-scale attack here at this time, the result will undoubtedly be devastating. Even if our soldiers are better equipped, once the absolute defense barrier is breached, they will not be able to hold on for long.
For a time, the entire room was filled with a dull and depressing atmosphere. Even Shuert, who was always known for his calmness, had a look of uncontrollable astonishment on his old wooden face.
If the Lich has already attacked the Desert Alliance, then the Rainforest Fortress Alliance may have encountered the same situation. Only in this way can the Lich be truly out of danger of being wiped out, otherwise we will still have the initiative.
This means that the armies of the two alliances will soon be approaching the city, and our side has almost no chance of winning even against one army, let alone facing two powerful and deadly opponents at the same time?
Next to Shuerte, Lei Xiao naturally realized this, his brows almost twisted into knots, and his heart was full of awe.
But Lei Xiao clearly understood that even if dual crises came at the same time, all he could do was to first figure out everything about the Desolate Sand Alliance, otherwise the problems would only accumulate.
"Sir, do you mean that the leader of Huangsha is still alive?"
Lei Xiao quickly found the crux of the problem and immediately asked the masked man.
"That's right, His Majesty the Human Race doesn't know something. The coronation ceremony of the Gorgon is extremely special. It requires the participation of a strong Gorgon with strength of six levels and five stars or above to activate the ancient magic inscriptions in the sacred place so that the new queen can Obtaining a double improvement in strength and magic skills is something that cannot be achieved by several skill scrolls and potions that permanently enhance strength."
Although the masked man's voice was extremely weak, he still kept his words as coherent as possible and responded: "The leader is the only strong Gorgon who has reached the sixth level and five stars, and Belinda is an extremely greedy guy. She will definitely keep the leader alive until the coronation ceremony is completely over."
"In other words, the leader must be found before the coronation ceremony ends, otherwise the leader will definitely die."
The masked man's eyes were full of anxiety and urgency, and he said: "Only in this way can the leader regain the command of the Desert Alliance army and resolve the crisis here for His Majesty the Human Race!"
"Your Majesty, what she said makes sense. The current leader of Huangsha has a very high prestige within the Huangsha Alliance. The reason why the deputy leader and the lich took control of the army is probably to claim that the leader of Huangsha is dead, so that they can succeed smoothly. .”
Shuerte nodded heavily and said to Lei Xiao: "If we find the leader of Huangsha, the other party's lies will be self-evident. We can indeed prevent the attack of Huangsha's army to a great extent."
"Your Majesty, I am afraid that the other side will also pin the evil deeds of the sneak attack on the leader of Huangsha and his party on our head, so that they can send troops to us unscrupulously."
Hanershu pondered for a moment and then agreed with a solemn expression.
"It is really urgent to rescue the leader of Huangsha, and it goes without saying that the place where the leader of Huangsha is imprisoned is the sacred place of the Gorgon. It seems that I have to go there myself."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, confirming their views.
"But Your Majesty, that lich is full of tricks, and many of the Gorgon's cities are all in underground caves. Not only is our ice and stone city unable to teleport, it is also difficult to defend and attack. The terrain is extremely complex, and the army cannot move in a short time.
Invasion, besides, we are not familiar with the opponent’s terrain yet.”
There was a trace of worry on Kath's face, and she said, "Although you have successfully advanced to the sixth level of double material, and your strength is far from being comparable to ordinary strong people of the same level, it is too dangerous."
After Keith finished speaking, Hanershu and Shuert also nodded.
"Your Majesty the Human Race, I am the daughter of the leader of the Desert Cat People. As long as you hold this token, the Desert Cat People will definitely assist Your Majesty with all their strength!"
The masked man's voice became more urgent, and he quickly said: "As for the terrain issue, your Majesty does not need to worry. The sacred land of the Gorgons is right next to the boundary of our clan, and the leader once told us that there is a secret road that leads directly to the sacred land.
I will tell His Majesty everything in the next meeting!"
"Your Majesty, I know that this will be an extremely dangerous journey, but only Your Majesty can save the leader. Please help me and the Desert Alliance!"
As the masked man spoke, he stood up and knelt down again, crying.
"I understand, this is not only for you, but also for myself."
Lei Xiao looked at the re-stretched wound on the other person's arm, and immediately helped him steady on the bed, nodded slightly and said, "Tell me all the information you know."
Hearing the sound, the overjoyed masked man did not hesitate and immediately told Lei Xiao everything, and gave Lei Xiao a pendant inlaid with khaki gems as her token.
As soon as the masked man finished speaking, Shuang's urgent and nervous voice was already heard through his words.
"Your Majesty, this is an urgent message from our managers, saying that Manager K and Manager L sent an alert at the same time: the Desert Alliance includes 30 Tier 4 legions with a million troops, and the Rainforest Fortress Alliance includes 30 Tier 4 legions.
The army's millions of troops are marching toward our desolate fortress and the Yingming fortress respectively!"
After hearing Shuang's words, everyone in our party, including Lei Xiao, took a deep breath of the cold air. It seems that the situation is exactly as we thought just now, and it has developed to the worst point.
However, Lei Xiao has just dispatched Ice Stone City and transferred all our fourth-order legions and a considerable number of third-order legions here, increasing the total strength here to 80 legions, including 70 third-order legions and
10 Tier 4 legions.
But even so, compared with the mighty army of the Desolate Sand Alliance, there is obviously still a huge gap, and there is no hope of holding on. It is just a matter of time.
"Everyone, I have only one mission for you, and that is to hold back the opponent here. Otherwise, once the opponent advances straight in, our lives will be ruined."
Lei Xiao looked at Shuerte, Hanershu, Keith, and Broy, Fanny, Cornette, Bruno and others who came one after another, and said seriously: "I know this will be an extremely difficult battle.
fight, but we have no choice."
"As you command, Your Majesty!"
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, everyone nodded solemnly without any hesitation.
"Very good, wait until I come back."
Lei Xiao looked at everyone's unwavering expressions and nodded heavily.
Hearing the sound, everyone said in unison with worried faces: "Your Majesty, please be extremely careful!"
"Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said again: "As for the Yingming Fortress on the other side of the Rainforest Fortress Alliance, I have my own arrangements. You just need to guard this place."
Having said that, Lei Xiao galloped all the way and quickly arrived at the Yingming Fortress through Ice Stone City. He explained the situation to the ancient elf Jace and other ancient dark elf generals stationed here.
At the same time, Ice Stone City was also ordered to mobilize some of our legions from nearby fortresses.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty the Human Race, as long as the people are there, the city will be there."
There was still no wave on Jace's face, and he just nodded firmly.
"I will send Kris, Nar and others to lead 30 third-level legions to assist you, and leave another 40 human third-level legions."
Lei Xiao looked at Jace's determined look and squeezed his hand.
Then, Lei Xiao made another extremely important deployment, which was to send a team of strong men to go deep into the Rainforest Fortress Alliance to find out what was currently happening there.
After all, there has been no news from the Rainforest Fortress Alliance, and even the manager L is helpless because the other party has proactively cut off contact with the Movie Market.
As for the specific candidates for the team, Lei Xiao temporarily arranged for Hui Lao, Yoniel and other top experts from the Mercenary Guild and the Alchemist Guild, as well as a special member, Lina.
As a direct subordinate of Lei Xiao, although this Nizi has limited strength, she has a special identity, that is, she is from the Mandela tribe.
Although the Mandela tribe is weak, they are also a member of the Rainforest Fortress Alliance and can always get some useful information. This is our only breakthrough at the moment.
"The two old presidents and Lina will leave everything to you."
In the command hall of Yingming Fortress, Lei Xiao nodded to the members of the strong team and said seriously: "I will first send Ice Stone City to secretly send you to Lina's hometown. Be sure to find out the specific situation as soon as possible.
There is also the whereabouts of Loris and others. If possible, we must find a way to prevent the opponent's army from attacking us."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this battle is related to our territory and even the life and death of the entire human race. I will go all out!"
The gray and wrinkled old face was full of solemnity, and he nodded heavily and said: "Your Majesty, please be extremely careful!"
After Hui Lao said this, Yoniel, Lina and others also agreed, all looking like they were looking forward to death.
"Tonight will be the moment that determines our fate. Even if we are on the edge of death, we will never leave our fate in the hands of our enemies."
Lei Xiao patted everyone's shoulders one by one, then waved his hand and said: "Let's go! Our destiny can only be controlled by ourselves!"
After that, Hui Lao and others quickly left the Yingming Fortress through Ice Stone City, while Lei Xiao was boosting morale in the fortress while waiting for the return of Ice Stone City.
Not long after, when he returned to Bingshi City, Lei Xiao walked into the city's gate.
During this process, Lei Xiao also briefly described the current situation to Ariel. Although the latter was worried and even her hands were shaking slightly, she still did not express it. She just spoke as calmly as possible.
Lei Xiao can move forward with confidence, he will protect the rear.
Because Ariel clearly understands that the man talking to her will be our only hope to guide us to grasp the light of victory.
And just as Lei Xiao went all out and started to take action, at the other end of the distance, in an unknown dark fog, the haggard face of the leader of the lich was filled with murderous intent and said: "Drag and Earth Snare"
The deployment has been completed, small human race, no matter you are the emperor of the human race or a lord from another world, and no matter how you struggle, you will definitely die this time!"
After saying that, the lich leader's ferocious, mummy-like face was distorted and he laughed unbridledly.
