Chapter 389: Celias allegiance and the true face of her opponent
After hearing Celia's request, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and began to think secretly.
“It can be known from the current situation.
The true identity of this businesswoman, who previously went by the pseudonym Eya, is the princess of the Moon Wolf Clan of Shanjing Principality.
This can also be explained by the fact that he is an ordinary businessman who does not appear to be wealthy.
Why does the other party have the exclusive right to sell the white jade ore veins, and why does it not undergo passive transformation like other ordinary Moon Wolf clan members?
In addition, when we first met in the hall, the other party looked panicked and tried every means to break through the silver door, but was unable to do anything.
It proves this point from the side.”
At this time, Lei Xiao was seen helping the other party up while continuing to think: "The most important thing is.
It can also be inferred from Celia's words.
Giant Ax General Bert is obviously also a member of the Grand Duke of Shanjing, so he can actively resist the passive transformation once a month."
Thinking of this, looking at Celia's anxious look, Lei Xiao first signaled her to calm down.
Then he asked: "How much do you know about what is happening now?"
At this stage, what can be confirmed is that.
This country of the Moon Wolf Clan, which is located in the mountains and tries its best to hide itself, has obviously encountered some kind of serious crisis and is even facing the risk of annihilation.
If we take action to resolve the crisis and then bring the entire city under our control, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance the strength of the territory.
At the same time, this may also be an opportunity to conquer the giant ax general Burt.
"Sir, as soon as the change happened, the little girl rushed to the castle as fast as possible from the store where we met."
On the other side, Celia nodded slightly, and then said with a solemn expression: "After entering the castle, the place was already in a mess.
However, the little girl discovered the corpses of several third-level elders in the clan, all of whom had been killed by extremely cruel means.
This alone is enough to prove that the other party is obviously coming with bad intentions!"
"Understood." Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and then, without hesitation, he simply informed the other party of his true identity.
There is no doubt that at present, everything is still unclear.
Naturally, Lei Xiao would not risk the safety of his subordinates to deal with unknown enemies rashly.
Therefore, only after subduing Celia first and further confirming that what the other party said is true, will we start taking action.
The most important thing is that by conquering the princess here, we will naturally be not far from the predetermined goal.
On the other side, after listening to Lei Xiao's words, Celia's petite body was trembling slightly, she was already so excited that she couldn't control herself.
For thousands of years, as members of the Moon Wolf Clan, they have been surrounded and suppressed by alien races countless times, and have been on the verge of annihilation several times.
Even saying the words "Moon Wolf Clan" will lead to death for the clan members, let alone other races willing to contact them.
So, in order to keep the fire of life going.
They had no choice but to come to this isolated mountain, try their best to hide their identities and live cautiously.
But even so, for more than a hundred years, Shanjing Principality has encountered many crises of national annihilation. Each time, it was isolated and helpless, and had to endure it silently.
“I didn’t expect that we, the Moon Wolf clan, would be favored by this big shot.
With his protection, after this, our Moon Wolf Clan finally has an ally worth relying on and a master worthy of loyalty..."
Thinking of this, Celia did not hesitate. She knelt on the ground again and lowered her head deeply to Lei Xiao: "My subordinate, Celia? Wanxing, is willing to swear allegiance to the lord!"
"Very good, let's start signing the contract."
Nodding with satisfaction, a second-level recruitment order exuding copper-colored metallic luster appeared in Lei Xiao's palm.
Not long after, a familiar prompt came over.
[Congratulations, the second-level five-star moon wolf warrior Celia? Evening Star has signed a master-servant contract with you and has become your new subordinate! 】
Hearing this, Lei Xiao gently lifted the Moon Wolf Clan princess up and opened the opponent's attribute bar.
[Name: Celia]
[Occupation: Moon Wolf Hero]
[Level: Level 2 Five Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill 1: Tendon-breaking stab "Active" (physical single target attack)]
[Skill 2: Spiral Kick "Active" (Physical Single Target Attack)]
[Skill Three: Claw Thorn Mastery "Passive" (When using Claw Thorn, the damage will be slightly increased)]
[Skill 4: Mountain Crystal Bloodline "Passive" (completely resistant to the passive transformation of the Moon Wolf Clan)]
After closing the opponent's attribute bar, Lei Xiao nodded to the Moon Wolf Clan Princess, then smiled slightly and said: "Next, it's finally time for us to take the stage."
…
At the same time, in a spacious meeting hall in another part of the castle.
The light in the huge meeting hall was dim.
The pale moonlight, mixed with the constantly howling night wind, shines directly into the hall from the broken windows.
It reflected the corpses of transformed werewolf soldiers lying scattered on the ground.
I saw that the armor on each corpse's body had already melted, and while exuding an unpleasant burnt smell, black smoke was still rising.
A man in black robes holding a dead wood staff stood at the gate, with a strange smile on his wrinkled pale face.
Behind him, there was a row of figures standing in the shadows, each of them exuding a good aura.
On the other end, next to the throne at the end of the hall, stood a white-haired old man with most of his armor melted off.
He was seen holding a sharp one-handed sword and breathing heavily. It was obvious that he had just gone through a fierce battle.
"Grand Duke Shanjing, if you choose to be captured now, maybe I can let you die a more pleasant death."
A hoarse voice sounded, and the pale-faced man in black robe slowly took his steps and said with a jeering smile: "You have a high-level magic scroll as your trump card.
It’s almost exhausted, right? With the strength of a mere third-level peak expert, it’s really difficult for you to contend with me for such a long time.”
"Stop dreaming! As long as I am still breathing, you can never get involved in this place!"
The white-haired old man known as the Grand Duke of Shanjing had a stern look on his face. He stood upright again with his body stooped due to pain and said coldly: "I will fight you till the end!"
"Jiejiejie, it seems that you still don't understand the current situation."
Hearing this, a hint of joking suddenly appeared on the pale face of the man in black robe.
He continued to move forward slowly: "You must be still confused about the matter of me casting sky illusion to transform all your people, right?
You know, in order to obtain this magic scroll that can cast sky illusions, I have killed several illusionists one after another and made sufficient preparations."
"Who are you, and what do you want to do to this country?"
Looking at the mysterious attacker who was getting closer and closer, Grand Duke Shanjing's whole body began to tighten again, and he asked coldly.
"I once read in an ancient scroll that the Moon Wolf Clan's passive transformation on a night of double full moons is actually an extremely life-consuming thing.
However, due to the transformation into a wolf, it only lasts for one night.
Therefore, the Moon Wolf Clan, who have long been accustomed to this situation, will not cause any substantial harm to themselves, they will only feel exhausted."
Looking at the nervous expression on the face of Grand Duke Shan Jing next to the throne, the man in black robe had a relaxed expression on his pale face, and he said to himself: "But.
If the transformation continues for more than one night.
As time goes by, this consumption is like a withered grass being ignited.
It will soon expand rapidly with the force of a prairie fire, until the vitality of the Moon Wolf Clan is completely exhausted, and they will eventually die of exhaustion."
Having said this, looking at Grand Duke Shanjing's increasingly shocked expression, the man in black robe opened his pale lips without a trace of blood and said: "By the way.
The sky illusion I have released will last for a whole week."
"What? Do you want to ruin the lives of tens of thousands of people in my city?"
On the other side, Grand Duke Shanjing's hand holding the sword hilt began to tremble slightly because of anger and disbelief.
He asked angrily: "What good will this do to you?!"
"Of course it's to make them work for me."
Grinning his pale mouth into an unbelievable and weird arc, the man in black robe took a few more steps towards Grand Duke Shan Jing.
At this time, taking advantage of the pale moonlight, it could already be clearly seen.
Behind him, a row of figures exuding a good aura turned out to be a group of pale skeletons with empty eyes and full armor.
"You...you are actually a necromancer?"
Seeing this, Grand Duke Shanjing's old face showed a look of shock, and the hand holding the sword hilt could not stop shaking.
"Jie Jie, have you finally discovered it? It seems that our Lord the Grand Duke has begun to realize fear."
The Necromancer continued to walk forward and said, "Although I am a fourth-level senior expert, the number of skeleton warriors I can control is still limited.
Since quantity cannot be improved, quality must be improved.
Compared with summoning materials of the same class, the strength of the Moon Wolf Tribe after transformation will undoubtedly be greatly increased.
This situation will continue even after death, so as my lovely soldiers, it is naturally the most suitable choice."
After speaking, the necromancer gently stroked the mandible of a skeleton warrior beside him, and a strange light appeared in his eyes like dead fish eyes.
"The fourth level of necromancers are very rare existences.
Among the two nearby human nations, Leng Yan and Sheng Ye, there is only one who is the most notorious..."
At this time, a look of awe reappeared on Grand Duke Shanjing's face, while he suppressed the anger that kept rising in his heart.
While asking: "Are you the Baron who is known as the ruthless tomb breaker in the Kingdom of Holy Night?!"
"Oh? The ruler of a small and remote country of the Moon Wolf Clan actually knows my name?"
On the other side, Necromancer Baron's pale face revealed a look of surprise.
At the same time, a murderous intention also began to appear on his pale face, and then he joked: "Your Excellency, the Grand Duke, for the sake of you calling me by my title.
Before you die, I can answer one more question for you."
"Why choose Wushanjing Principality?"
Seeing that the opponent had reached the center of the hall, Grand Duke Shanjing bent his legs slightly and made a posture ready to attack.
Seeing Grand Duke Shanjing's expression of looking forward to death, Necromancer Baron smiled disdainfully.
Then he said leisurely: "Your Majesty the Grand Duke, I didn't expect that before you died, you would ask such an obviously stupid question.
I might as well tell you that you must be very familiar with the recent stalemate at the border between Leng Yan and Sheng Ye, right?
Moreover, the battle for the royal capital between Leng Yan and several stupid princes has already been rumored."
At this time, Baron took his own steps again and said slowly: "Therefore.
Although His Majesty, the new king of Holy Night, is still a little hesitant, he does not dare to take the opportunity to launch a large-scale war, fearing that it is the other party's conspiracy.
However, the senior leaders of the main war faction in Shengye have long been unable to sit still.
The representatives of these people hired me to prepare to break the deadlock in the border war first.
By then, once the Holy Night army invades Leng Yan's country and things become more serious, His Majesty, the new king of Holy Night, will not be able to make the decision."
"You bastard, you are going to sacrifice the lives of tens of thousands of my people just for something that has nothing to do with our Moon Wolf Clan?!"
Upon hearing this, Grand Duke Shanjing looked excited and gritted his teeth, and shouted angrily.
"Incompetent trash, I can only blame you for being the best material for skeleton warriors and being located in a perfect location like a border battlefield."
Speaking of this lazily, Necromancer Baron first spat, and then waved his hand casually.
Behind him, ten fully armed skeleton warriors clashed their upper and lower jaws together, and with the sound of teeth grinding, they rushed towards the Grand Duke Shan Jing on the throne.
On the other side, Grand Duke Shanjing was not to be outdone. His one-handed sword flashed with cold light and he faced him with an awe-inspiring expression.
For a moment, in the dim hall, swords and swords were flashing, and waves of impressive energy rippled violently.
However, the strength of these ten skeleton warriors has reached the third level, and their cooperation is even more flawless.
Within a moment, Grand Duke Shan Jing, who was at the peak of the third level, was defeated without any suspense and retreated to the corner of the hall in embarrassment.
"Dear Grand Duke, go with peace of mind, I will treat your people well.
Of course, after they are dead."
Having said this, Necromancer Baron suddenly began to laugh wildly, with a proud expression on his pale face.
"My friend with flour on his face, you seem to be smiling a little too early, right?"
At this moment, a faint voice suddenly sounded at the door of the hall.
