A moment later, Carol, still dressed in armor, appeared in front of Lei Xiao again, led by Ed.
At this time, when the female garrison captain of Shuiyue City saw Lei Xiao sitting on the throne.
He quickly bowed and saluted, his expression a little more respectful than before and said: "See you, sir!"
There is no doubt that being able to ask the Lord of the City to give up his seat means that the status of this young big shot is self-evident.
Moreover, when in the barrier area.
The strong energy displayed by this big man left a very deep impression on her, which can only be described as terrifying!
"Captain Carol, there is no need to be polite."
Raising his hand slightly, Lei Xiao picked up the white porcelain cup beside him and took a sip of the fragrant tea that Faxia had just brewed.
Then he said: "I heard that you once served under the Holy Light General Ju Bai. How much do you know about this kingdom general?"
"Back to my lord, when General Jubai first became a captain, the villain was already under her command."
On the other side, Carol lowered her head again and responded without reservation: "For many years.
We fought together from the Buluo Fortress in the far north of the Cold Flame Kingdom, to the rainforest fortress in the far south, to the border battlefield with the Kingdom of Holy Night in the east, and experienced nearly a hundred battles.
It wasn't until General Jubai returned to the royal capital and was named the general of the kingdom that he was forced to separate.
Because the high-ranking dignitaries in the royal capital obviously don’t want a kingdom general to have too many cronies around him, as that will undoubtedly threaten their power.”
"That's it." Lei Xiao nodded slightly, gently put down the tea cup in his hand, and continued to listen.
"Sir, because General Orange and White is just the adopted daughter of an earl family and was originally from a commoner background.
Later, he was given the title of aristocrat by virtue of his military exploits and belonged to Leng Yan's new aristocracy.
Therefore, he has never been popular with other generals of the kingdom who have orthodox noble blood, as well as the dignitaries of the royal capital.
Of course, there is no trust, which is also an important reason why the villain was forced to leave the royal capital."
I saw Carol still bowing her head and saluting, and continued to introduce.
"Understood." Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao looked thoughtfully while staring at the steaming tea cup next to him.
Judging from the information currently available to us.
Regarding the origin of Holy Light General Ju Bai, it is undoubtedly similar to the situation of the previous Giant Ax General Burt, both of whom are unpopular existences in the royal capital.
No wonder these two people would eventually choose to follow Princess Ariel, who is the weakest.
After thinking about this, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment and then asked: "Captain Carol, what else do you know about the other situations of General Holy Light Ju Bai?"
"Sir, as far as I know, General Jubai has an enemy in the Cold Flame Kingdom. However, due to various reasons, General Jubai has been unable to kill this enemy."
On the other side, Carol's sassy face was filled with solemnity as she continued to respond.
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" After hearing this, a curious expression suddenly appeared on Lei Xiao's face, and he motioned for Carol to continue.
"Sir, this matter must start with the life experience of General Jubai."
At this time, Carol took a deep breath and then said: "It's just like what the villain said just now.
General Jubai was originally an orphan who grew up in a monastery in Red Arrow Town.
Later, she was fortunate enough to be adopted by the family of the city lord of Red Arrow Town who had no children, and then she officially became the adopted daughter of the Earl's family, and received the family's full support.
However, although the city lord of Red Arrow Town belongs to the earl family of Leng Yan Kingdom.
But the family has long since declined, and the land in Red Arrow Town itself is barren, making it just a little-known fishing town.
Therefore, both in terms of financial resources and strength, compared with other noble territories, it is undoubtedly pitifully weak.
However, General Jubai's own cultivation talent is extremely outstanding, which can be said to have made Red Arrow Town famous at that time."
"So Ju Bai was born in Red Arrow Town?" Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but look thoughtful.
Lei Xiao once knew some information about Red Arrow Town.
This town is located in the southeast of Mailan Town and directly south of the ancient battlefield ruins. It is a small town built on the river.
The river next to the town is the downstream of the rapid river between our territory in the forest and Kongqing Town.
Therefore, the location is not very far from our own territory.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.
On the other side, Carol's eyes were dim and she continued: "However, even though it is such a small town that is not wealthy, it is still coveted by people with ulterior motives.
In the end, it caused a fatal disaster for the residents of Red Arrow Town, as well as General Jubai's adoptive parents and family."
"Captain Carol, are you referring to the bandit robbery five years ago?"
After hearing this, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment and suddenly showed a look of enlightenment.
He murmured to himself: "I remember hearing Xuan Yue from Mailan Town mention it once.
Five years ago, Chijian Town, about three days' carriage ride away from Mailan Town, suffered a large-scale robbery by bandits.
As a result, all the garrison forces, including the city lord and his family, were wiped out, until the Lengyan royal family re-divided the town into the jurisdiction of other nobles.
As for the specific situation at that time, Xuan Yue did not know. After all, the two cities were separated by the ruins of an ancient battlefield surrounded by mountains, and there was almost no contact between them.
However, that incident five years ago indeed caused a sensation in the surrounding area."
"Sir, in fact, the robbery five years ago was not carried out by bandits, but by a group of professional soldiers."
On the other side, Carol took a deep breath, and then said: "Back then, after I learned the news.
After being shocked, General Jubai, who was still the captain, immediately took a few of our cronies back to Red Arrow Town to investigate.
At first, after questioning the residents in the town, we learned that the group of sudden attackers were indeed dressed as ordinary bandits.
However, after these people broke through the city gate, they rushed directly to the city lord's palace. Their goal seemed very clear. This immediately aroused our suspicion.
After all, compared to the most heavily guarded city lord's palace, the combined wealth of the few local wealthy businessmen is definitely not a small amount.
But until the menacing group of bandits managed to leave, they didn't even take a step closer to other mansions."
"That's true." After hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "It seems that this so-called robbery is just an illusion."
"What you said is absolutely true." Carol sighed softly and continued: "After deducing that something was fishy, we originally only had suspicions and no substantive evidence.
Finally, it was not until we accidentally found a surviving wounded soldier at a resident's home.
According to the wounded soldier who was still frightened, the bandits were not only powerful but also ruthless in their methods.
Moreover, they are well-organized and have a complete command system. They are obviously not ordinary bandits.
More importantly, during the fight, the wounded soldier recognized several so-called masked bandits, who were elite soldiers from the neighboring city of Songta City!"
"Songta City?" Hearing this, Lei Xiao showed a thoughtful expression again.
Regarding Songta City, he also heard Xuan Yue introduce it.
This medium-sized city is located in the south of Red Arrow Town, already relatively close to the border between Lengyan and Shengye.
In the surrounding area, its strength is extremely impressive and stands out from the rest.
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "So, those so-called bandits are actually the elite soldiers of Songta City pretending to be?"
"Sir, that's exactly what it is," Carolyn nodded slightly, frowning, and continued: "After that, through a series of investigations, we learned.
It turned out that the attack occurred half a month ago.
The city lord of Pine Tower City, Marquis Luoji, once discussed with General Orange and White's adoptive father, the city lord of Red Arrow Town, the raising of water-based monsters and monsters in the waters of Red Arrow Town.
The magic beads produced in the body of this water-type magic beast are essential materials for refining several first-level magic potions, and are very valuable.
However, his adult strength is at a peak level that is simply unmatched by ordinary people, and he is extremely violent and cruel.
In history, there have been many incidents where people suffered the consequences for breeding such ferocious monsters.
Therefore, Orange and White's adoptive father, the city lord, would naturally not let such a ferocious monster appear in his city.
Compared with a large amount of wealth, the orange-white city lord and adoptive father obviously care more about the safety of the residents in the city.
At this point, Carol sighed again and continued: "But it is precisely because of this that the declining Earl family has faced a disaster."
"So, after getting rid of the troublesome orange and white adoptive father.
The person who later took over Red Arrow Town must be someone related to Marquis Rocky, or simply Marquis Rocky himself, right?
Moreover, the current Red Arrow Town must be home to a large number of dangerous magic bead monsters." Directly opposite, Lei Xiao, who was sitting on the throne, nodded slightly and said in deep thought.
"What your Excellency said is correct."
On the other side, Carol still nodded sadly, and then said: "Currently, the jurisdiction of this city falls in the hands of the Marquis of Rocky family.
After the large-scale breeding of magic bead monsters in Red Arrow Town, it also became a cash cow for Marquis Rocky's family.
Although a large number of residents of Red Arrow Town lose their lives every year, all this will only become the talk and joke of these big shots after dinner.
All in all, after a series of investigations, General Jubai and several of our cronies finally determined that the Marquis of Rocky was responsible for this matter.
This sanctimonious hypocrite not only completely slaughtered General Orange and White's adoptive parents and family.
Moreover, General Orange and White, who fought with the city lord's palace until the last moment, burned down the monastery where he grew up. His methods can be described as extremely ruthless.
General Jubai, who had already lost his first home, lost his second home again."
"I understand." After hearing this, Lei Xiao frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "If what I expected is good.
The reason why Ju Bai has not killed this enemy yet is that the forces behind him must be huge, right?"
"My lord is right again." Carol nodded slightly and continued: "The person standing behind Marquis Luoji is none other than the eldest prince of the Lengyan royal family!
In addition, his own strength is also at the level of a fourth-level senior expert, almost on par with General Orange and White, and he is surrounded by many experts.
Therefore, although General Jubai clearly understood that this enemy was right in front of him, he still had no choice but to grit his teeth and keep everything in his heart.
What’s even more annoying is that under General Jubai’s repeated questioning, this guy actually admitted what he had done, and then laughed loudly and left without any scruples..."
Having said this, Carol clenched her fist tightly, her sassy face full of anger.
"So that's it." Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, then waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's stop here. Captain Carol, please go back and rest early."
"Yes, sir." On the other side, Carol saluted Lei Xiao and Ed one after another, then left with fists in hand.
A moment later, when only one's subordinates were left in the hall again.
Lei Xiao, who had a plan in mind, first drank all the tea in the cup, and then asked Ed to call the three elders of the Fuyue family over.
Next, after some beatings and shocks, they watched the three elders leave with frightened expressions on their faces.
Lei Xiao and his party were under the guidance of Ed.
In the banquet hall of the castle, we ate some seafood meals with Shuiyuecheng characteristics, and then casually strolled around this charming tourist city.
Finally, he returned to the hall just now.
Moreover, in the process, Lei Xiao also gave Faxia and Abing, who had not returned home for a long time, a few hours of leave to spend time with their families.
"City Lord Ed, I will leave everything in Shuiyue City to you. If you need anything, please contact me in a timely manner."
At this time, Lei Xiao nodded slightly towards Ed, who was standing respectfully, and then motioned for the other subordinates to gather around him.
"I obey! Lord, please rest assured!" Upon hearing this, Ed quickly bowed and saluted with a respectful expression on his face.
"Okay, let's leave then." After saying this, Lei Xiao's mind moved, and a cold-touch return crystal suddenly appeared on his palm.
Next, Lei Xiao did not hesitate and crushed the cyan crystal stone he just took out.
The next second, the strange energy inside the crystal swept out in an instant, and then completely enveloped Lei Xiao and his group.
As time passed, and under Ed's watch, the cyan light curtain around Lei Xiao and his group began to become thicker.
Finally, a white light flashed past, and everyone on Ed's side completely disappeared in the hall.
