Just like that, after thinking for a while, Lei Xiao nodded to the knotweed and signaled the other party to wrap the entire hall with energy and completely isolate it from the outside world.
He then said: "Lin, when I'm not here, Ariel will definitely come to you to get information about me.
At that time, the more mysterious and unpredictable we are, the better. The purpose is to make the other party unclear about our specific strength and territorial location.”
“As ordered! Lord, please rest assured!” Upon hearing this, Lin, who was dressed in military uniform, immediately bowed and saluted, cupping her fists.
“In addition, Lin, there is another most critical task for you.”
After pondering for a moment, Lei Xiao picked up the exquisite white porcelain cup, took a sip of tea, and continued: "In order of strength.
As soon as possible, investigate the detailed information of the two kingdom generals, five third-level personal maids, and the two squadrons of guards around Princess Ariel.
In order to completely deal with this Leng Yan’s fifth princess, we must first start with the people around her.”
“As you command! Lord!” Lin responded without hesitation after hearing this.
"Nanxing, Nanyue, starting from today, you two will stay in Kongqing Town temporarily and monitor every move of Ariel and others."
Having said this, Lei Xiao first put down the tea cup, and then with a thought, two invisible cloaks as thin as cicada wings appeared in his hands.
He waved to the twin sisters to come forward to get it, and said at the same time: "With your current strength as a third-level peak assassin, coupled with the concealment effect of the invisibility cloak.
As long as they don't get too close, even the two kingdom generals who are at the level of fourth-level senior experts will have difficulty discovering them.
If anything happens, please report it to me promptly, including all the words and deeds of Princess Ariel.
Also, your other mission is to assist the guards and prevent other assassins from sneaking into the city lord's mansion."
“As you command! Lord!” On the other side, sisters Nan Xing and Nan Yue clasped their fists in unison and responded respectfully.
“In addition, I will keep two squadrons of great swordsmen and a squadron of magicians here as well.”
Took another sip of tea, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, and then said: "And, I will instruct Zhusha to lead a squadron of magicians, and then build a "Eye of Insight" magic barrier in the city lord's mansion.
In this case, in addition to the five squadrons of guards, the defense power of the Lord's Mansion will be strengthened by this step.
You can also keep a better eye on every move of Princess Ariel's two personal guards.
As for the specific job arrangements and intermediate coordination work, Guanzhong, I will leave it entirely to you."
“As you command! Lord!” The sound of armors clashing neatly sounded. Guanzhong took a step forward, bowed and clasped his fists.
“Ye Cang, you should stay here for the time being. After all, the opponent has two fourth-level experts. We must make sure everything is safe.”
Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao shook the tea cup in the water and said to the muscular priest at the bottom.
“Leave it to your subordinates, Lord.”
He gracefully bowed to Lei Xiao, and Ye Cang couldn't help but reveal a hint of amusement on his face: "To be honest with you Lord, I happen to be very familiar with the rare profession among Holy Light Priests, Holy Sword Priests."
interested.
If the other party makes any changes, my subordinates will definitely not show mercy."
“Very good.” Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction, and looked thoughtful again.
At this point, our layout has completely come to an end.
In this way, if Ariel and her party have other ulterior motives, under the supervision of Nanxing Nanyue, there will inevitably be flaws in the short term.
Furthermore, through Lin’s investigation, we can also be targeted and wait for opportunities to subdue one or more of Ariel’s followers.
From these people, we can intuitively understand the real situation of Ariel and her group.
Only by taking such a two-pronged approach can we comprehensively judge whether Ariel and others have other intentions and ideas that are detrimental to themselves.
Otherwise, even if you directly ask the other party for information about the Lengyan royal family, what you get is likely to be false news.
This is also the reason why Lei Xiao was not in a hurry to do this just now.
“In short, when facing the fifth princess Leng Yan and her party, we must not rush for success and must act cautiously.”
After drinking all the tea in the porcelain cup, Lei Xiao, who was sitting on the throne, immediately spoke.
“As you command! Lord!” Upon hearing this, all the subordinates at the bottom of the group clasped their fists in unison.
“Okay, the banquet should be almost ready.
After taking a short rest, let us have a feast." Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction and smiled slightly.
Just like that, it didn’t take long.
Our group went straight to the banquet hall next to the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
The huge banquet hall was brightly lit by a large number of light crystals that shone like LED lights.
Long tables covered with milky white hollow embroidered carved tablecloths, with exquisite silver vessels, hold a variety of breads, meats, dairy products, pastries and fine wines.
At the same time, the rich aroma of meat mixed with the smell of spices and the sweet aroma of caramel from freshly baked bread hit your nose, making people salivate.
On the other side, the officials from Kongqing Town had already been waiting here. When they saw Lei Xiao coming, they all saluted respectfully, with expressions of reverence on their faces.
There is no doubt that the scene where the lord appeared this morning has undoubtedly been deeply engraved in each of their minds.
Next, after Lin’s introduction, Lei Xiao gradually met some of the main officials of Kongqing Town.
Soon, Lei Xiao simply greeted and encouraged everyone with various kinds of chicken soup for the soul that were already at his disposal.
Finally, regarding the question about Lin and Fang Hai, they have always appeared as advisors to the city lord. Even if Ariel and her group asked, there would be no problem.
Furthermore, you can also use the merchant family to infiltrate the identities of people within the alien lords as a further cover.
“Everyone, as long as we unite sincerely and work together.
Kongqing Town in the future will definitely become more beautiful and prosperous. Even becoming the largest city in Lengyan is not impossible.
By then, both of you and I will become witnesses of this historical moment!"
Unknowingly, Lei Xiao wanted to turn this welcome banquet into a personal speech conference.
Princess Ariel and her party also arrived at the venue together under the guidance of several maids.
“Dear Your Highness the Fifth Princess, welcome to my city.”
Surrounded by all the subordinates, Lei Xiao walked forward slowly and smiled at Princess Ariel.
