Looking at the army of new nobles retreating like a tide below the city, the joy on the faces of everyone on the city wall was beyond words.
You know, those are the enemy reinforcements waiting for the five legions, which are enough to easily match the five fifth-level powerhouses in their heyday!
Our main combat forces have experienced a day and night of fierce fighting, and are already exhausted. What's more, there is also the extremely uncertain factor of traditional noble reinforcements, which may arrive at any time to reap the benefits.
Under such circumstances, once the opponent successfully breaks through Wangxing City, the consequences will undoubtedly be disastrous. After all, our combat power is now scattered everywhere, and it will be easy for the opponent to defeat them one by one.
By then, the eastern part of Lengyan, which had just seen some light, would once again fall into endless war and oppression.
And now, the Xiaoshen boss just relied on one person's words to bring down these five murderous new aristocratic legions. Such a shocking method is like a god descending to earth!
Thinking of this place invariably, Qin Qian on the city wall, Feng Ling and other lords of the Xiao Shen Group, Carol, the elder of the Bingliu family and others all cast their awe and reverence eyes on Lei who was still under the city.
Xiao's back.
Xiaoshen's move not only saved them, but also saved everyone in this area!
"Finally gone?"
At the gate of Wangxing City, Lei Xiao looked at the rapidly retreating army of new nobles and couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then he slowly walked back into the city, surrounded by Polygonum japonica and Gracilaria.
It wasn't until the thick metal gate that opened wide on the city wall suddenly fell down again that Lei Xiao reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Although I don’t play the piano myself, I just speak out loud, but the effect seems to be pretty good.
After the metal gate that isolated everything fell again, Qin Qian and other lords of the Xiao Shen Tuan, Carol, the Great Elder Bingliu and others who had been waiting inside the gate immediately came forward to greet them.
"Brother Xiaoshen, you are really amazing!"
I saw the petite and exquisite wind chime, and said with admiration in his starry eyes: "If you had just started the live broadcast, you would have become famous all over the country immediately! It is really a scene that people will remember for life!"
"Wind Chime, you are such an outspoken girl. Among our billions of lords, Xiaoshen Boss has long been known to everyone. And he is not only popular all over the country, but also all over the world."
Qin Qian smiled helplessly, then took a step forward and said gratefully: "Brother Xiaoshen, thank you so much, otherwise all the lords of our Xiaoshen Regiment No. 9 would have been wiped out.
"
"It doesn't matter, I'm not only here to save you, but also to save myself."
Lei Xiao smiled calmly, nodded to Qin Qian and said: "You did a good job and successfully captured this city. Otherwise, even if I wanted to use this empty city strategy, there would be no city gate open."
After a pause, Lei Xiao spoke again: "When the entire area stabilizes, I will fulfill my promise and hand over a city to you for management. This can be regarded as a small encouragement to you."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Xiaoshen!"
Qin Qian's delicate face, which was blackened and whitened by gunpowder smoke, was full of joy, and she thanked her repeatedly: "Our Xiaoshen group will always stand with the Xiaoshen boss!"
"Looking forward to your wonderful performance in the future."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, then turned to the side of the female captain of Shuiyue City and the elder of the Bingliu family, nodded and said with a smile: "Caro, old sir, it's all thanks to you this time."
"Sir, where are you talking about?"
Carol quickly waved her hand, performed a standard chest-stroking salute and said: "Shuiyuecheng has already sworn allegiance to you, and it is a great honor for us, Shuiyuecheng soldiers, to be able to fight for you!"
"Haha, Captain Carol is right. It is also an honor for my Bingliu family to be able to fight for you."
The eldest elder of the Bingliu family stroked his gray beard and echoed: "Besides, I have long wanted to take care of these degenerate nobles who have acted wantonly."
"With your words, I feel relieved. After this battle is over, I will reward you based on your merits."
Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction and said solemnly to everyone: "It will take at least half a day for the reinforcements to defend the city to arrive. We cannot relax even a little bit before the reinforcements arrive."
Lei Xiao clearly understood that although the reinforcements of the new nobles had temporarily retreated, they were still waiting for an opportunity, and at the same time, there was no possibility that the reinforcements of the traditional nobles would come to the city again.
Therefore, before the arrival of considerable reinforcements and heavy equipment such as magic cannons, everything has not yet been settled.
"As you command!"
After listening to Lei Xiao's words, these commanders understood what they were saying and immediately resigned one after another and started to arrange the defense in the city.
After Qin Qian and others left, all the main subordinates and Jin Wen surrounded them again.
All the subordinates looked excited and looked at Lei Xiao with reverence.
Among them, not to mention the main subordinates including Ariel, especially Jin Wen who has not yet officially sworn allegiance to Lei Xiao, his eyes almost popped out of his head.
Your Excellency Keqing's series of astonishing and textbook-like retreats from the enemy will undoubtedly be included in the heroic poems of bards and legendary stone tablets!
"Ye Cang, go and help treat the wounded soldiers in the city."
Lei Xiao first nodded to Muscular Priest, then turned to Jin Wen and said, "Master Jin Wen, you seem to be surprised."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, he couldn't help but become more curious as he looked at the Lengyan chief illusion master with fair skin, good looks and long legs.
I remember that when I was in the "Dream Devouring Realm", the thing in Jin Wen's heart that was accidentally reflected was an extremely majestic underground city.
Due to the dimness of the picture, although only a vague outline of a spectacular city could be seen clearly, it was difficult to judge the specific race of that strange city from the subtle architectural style.
But what is certain is that the scale of that majestic underground city is even greater than the ruins of the dwarf Hearth City that we have seen before.
"At that time, I suspected that this guy's real identity was probably not a human race, and he couldn't really be a dwarf, right? What if there was a bearded, foot-picking dwarf man behind this pleasing illusion disguise?
It’s so surprising.”
Looking at Jin Wen's tall figure exuding a mature charm, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly.
Just as Lei Xiao was thinking about it in his mind.
Jin Wen took a deep breath and responded to Lei Xiao with a solemn face: "Your Excellency Keqing, I have to admit that I was really blind before. Your Excellency Keqing's strength and courage are far beyond my imagination, and even can only
To describe it, it’s breathtaking.”
After a pause, Jin Wen's starry eyes showed uncontrollable admiration again, and he said sincerely: "With the appearance of Your Excellency Keqing, maybe the Lengyan Kingdom will really usher in a new dawn."
"Master Jinwen has given you the award."
Lei Xiao looked at the soldiers around him who were nervously deploying defenses and transporting the injured, and nodded to Jin Wen and said: "You are also responsible for me being able to reach this point. Afterwards, I will fulfill my promise and let you take care of yourself."
I went to take a walk around the lost Winged Human Clan enchantment area."
"That's great! Thank you very much, Your Excellency!"
Jin Wen's starry eyes lit up and he said with joy: "I know that your Excellency, Ke Qing, will never break your promise!"
"By the way, I have a little suggestion."
Looking at Jin Wen's overjoyed white face, Lei Xiao smiled faintly and continued: "Master Jin Wen has nowhere to go now, right? How about you stay here with me? In addition to the Winged Human Race barrier area, I also
There is a place that is more exciting for you."
The reason why Lei Xiao said this was to strike while the iron was hot and prepare to take Lengyan's chief illusion master under his command.
Since the beginning of this war, Lei Xiao has deeply realized the importance of illusion.
It is conceivable that with the help of Jin Wen, an illusion master who is only one step away from the peak of the fourth level, many actions in the future will undoubtedly be much more convenient.
Coupled with Xiaoya's assistance, even if it is a two-line or even a three-line battle, there will not be a situation where there are no illusionists available.
Furthermore, Jin Wen already knows many of his secrets, including Hong Ye's true identity, and must take them down before he can sit back and relax.
While Lei Xiao was thinking this in his mind, he began to upgrade the recruitment orders he had accumulated previously.
After conquering Captain Ker of Velen City, the third-level recruitment order on his body had returned to zero, and the last fourth-level recruitment order had been used up long ago when he conquered Randall.
"Although I haven't had time to collect today's recruitment order, I have accumulated 15 second-level recruitment orders in the past few days. How can I get a fourth-level one?"
Don’t hesitate and start upgrading directly.
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to "Third Level Recruitment Order"! ]
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to 108 "Second Level Recruitment Orders"! 】
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to "Fourth Level Recruitment Order"! ]
…
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to 107 "Second Level Recruitment Orders"! 】
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to 105 "Second Level Recruitment Orders"! 】
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to "Fourth Level Recruitment Order"! ]
…
"Good guy, have you obtained a total of 2 level 4 recruitment orders, 5 level 3 recruitment orders, and 850 level 2 recruitment orders? What a small harvest!"
Lei Xiao briefly took stock in his mind and nodded with satisfaction.
In front of Lei Xiao, after hearing that Lei Xiao had ancient ruins that were even more powerful than those in the Yi Human Clan barrier area, Jin Wen, as a senior archeology fan, first brightened up, and then asked cautiously: "Your Excellency, Ke Qing,
Can you reveal a little bit first?"
"sure."
Surrounded by his subordinates, Lei Xiao walked along the horse path beside the city gate towards the towering city wall, and whispered to Jin Wen: "Have you ever heard of the land of gods?"
"God...the land of God's favor?! The entrance hall of God's domain really exists?!"
Hearing this term that only appeared in legends, Jin Wen's starry eyes rolled over and he was so excited that he almost collapsed on the ground.
Not long after, in a hidden room on the city tower, Jin Wen knelt down in front of Lei Xiao with a solemn look on his face.
At this moment, Jin Wen's heart was full of thoughts.
The reason why she chose to be loyal to Lei Xiao was not just to explore the Winged Human Tribe's enchantment area and the land of gods.
The most important thing is that she saw long-lost miracles and dawn more than once in this human youth who came from another world.
Being able to forge ahead with such a big shot, maybe the heavy burdens she carries can be resolved one day, right?
She had not felt this feeling of hope for the future for a long time.
Thinking of this, Jin Wen did not hesitate, lowered his head to Lei Xiao, and solemnly said: "My subordinate Erza Xingliu is willing to swear allegiance to the lord to the death!"
"Erza? Is this Jinwen's real name? So, Jinwen, who is famous in the Cold Flame Kingdom, is just a pseudonym?"
Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
In front of Lei Xiao, the slender figure of Jinwen, whose real name was Erza, began to become blurry.
Following a gentle wave of energy, a small and exquisite figure reappeared in front of Lei Xiao.
I saw that this was a petite woman. Although I couldn’t see her specific face because she was bowing her head and kneeling in worship, the long ears exposed between the shawl and long hair, and the gray and rosy skin revealed that she was
Describes its race.
"It's actually a mysterious dark elf clan?"
As a half-elf, Jiang Li's eyes were full of surprise, and she couldn't help but blurt out.
You must know that among the three major branches of the elves, the dark elves who are good at assassination are the most lonely and have a terrible reputation.
"So this is Jinwen. No, Erza's true race. No wonder she has never shown her true face to others. In the realm of the human race, a dark elf is indeed a bit too conspicuous, or an eyesore."
There was also a look of surprise on Lei Xiao's face.
This is the second time I have seen real elves.
As for the first time, it was naturally in the warehouse of the mountain fortress.
At that time, what Lei Xiao encountered were three assassins from the Dark Devouring Society, as well as the Ear-severed Destroyers of the Dark Elf Tribe.
"In this way, the mysterious majestic underground city can be explained clearly. After all, the dark elves are an alien species from the elves. Like the dwarves, they are both races that live underground."
Looking at Erza's long ears, Lei Xiao stopped the urge to go up and touch them, and nodded thoughtfully.
"In any case, Erza's real body, a petite and exquisite dark elf woman, is much better than the burly man from the dwarves I imagined. Otherwise, the contrast with the illusion disguise would be too great."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, and a fourth-level recruitment order with golden luster appeared on his palm.
Not long after, a familiar prompt sounded in Lei Xiao's ears.
[Congratulations, the fourth-level eight-star advanced illusionist Erza Xingliu has signed a master-servant contract with you and has become your new subordinate! 】
