When his vision suddenly became clear, Lei Xiao looked at it intently.
This giant mountain hall is extremely spacious, at least the size of four football fields. It has a rectangular structure, and its edges are filled with various training equipment and weapon racks.
What is different from the passage just now is that most of the area in the hall is not built with stones. Instead, it reveals flat earth-yellow cave walls as if cut by a knife. The smell of earth is everywhere, quite like a
Historic underground city.
"Since the era of the King of Heroes where Wang Xi lived, this Fortress has stood here for six hundred years. It is indeed quite old."
Lei Xiao's dark eyes moved, while looking around the mountain fortress in front of him, he murmured in his heart: "It seems that there is no news about the Sheng Yun Stone. I don't know when I will be able to see that guy Wang Xi.
"
"I hope that when we see each other again, we won't mess up the seniority. After all, Ariel has given everything to me, and that guy is Ariel's ancestor."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao curled his lips, brought his thoughts back to reality, and continued to observe the huge hall in front of him.
Perhaps because it was late, the hall seemed quite empty, with only a few groups of heavily armed soldiers patrolling around.
In addition to the area, the height of this hall is also extremely astonishing, no less than the living space of the Titans in Crystal Blue City, which is at least twenty meters.
On the towering walls of the huge space, there are well-built battlements and arrow towers. There are longing figures on them, and the defenses are also extremely tight.
"In general, it is just like an enlarged version of the mountain fortress and the urn city. It seems that the function of this hall, in addition to daily life training, also includes closing the door and beating dogs when necessary, right?"
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully and focused his attention on the city gates on the four walls of the giant space.
There are a total of eight giant gates here, half of which are closed and the other half are open.
"These open doors should lead to the soldiers' accommodation areas, right?"
"It can accommodate soldiers from five legions at the same time. It seems that this hall is just the tip of the iceberg of the fortress."
Lei Xiao's eyes passed over the eight thick giant city gates in turn, and he nodded in his heart.
Then, under the non-stop guidance of Blade General Hilda, Lei Xiao walked straight into the nearest giant door.
Accompanied by the echoing footsteps, Lei Xiao, who entered the huge door, moved forward along the spacious fortress corridor, twisting and turning, as if he had entered a maze.
"From a structural point of view, this place is like a very special ant nest, with rows of anthills everywhere."
In the spacious fortress corridor, Lei Xiao followed Hilda's burly body, looking at the neatly arranged rooms on both sides in amazement, and thought to himself.
"Thinking about it this way, isn't the third princess Caroline the queen of ants here? It's quite appropriate. I really want to see this "queen" who dominates the entire fortress as soon as possible."
"A fighting madman, an eclectic princess who scares the enemy. She is stronger than most of the kingdom's generals and possesses the bravery of a hero king... No matter what, it shows that this third princess is by no means an ordinary person."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this in his mind, Hilda, who was leading the way, stopped.
Following Hilda and standing still, Lei Xiao noticed.
In the corridor of this fortress, there are no neatly arranged rooms on both sides. There is only a rather solid metal door at the end of the corridor.
At this time, except for Lei Xiao and Hilda, all the other elite northern soldiers who followed had left, making the surrounding area look quite empty.
Of course, there are also other main subordinates who have been following Lei Xiao and are in an invisible state.
"Fortunately, there are subordinates following me. If I were alone in the same space with this guy, it would really make people feel a different kind of pressure."
Lei Xiao looked up at the tall Hilda who had just stopped in front of him and smiled helplessly.
"As a lord from another world, this is your first time coming to the Fortress, isn't it? You have come all the way from the eastern region, and it's really hard for you, Your Excellency."
Hilda turned her body like a hill and smiled faintly at Lei Xiao. Although her expression looked quite polite, it was definitely not welcoming.
After hearing Hilda directly tell her true identity, Lei Xiao still had the calm expression and said with a smile: "As expected of General Blade, you are really quick-thinking. You must have seen through my identity from the beginning.
Alright?"
"Your Excellency Ke Qing, you have done a great job. You can hold the token of Princess Ariel and show up at the Fortress indifferently. Only Your Excellency Ke Qing, who has been famous recently, can do it."
Hilda raised her sparse eyebrows, still with the same lukewarm expression: "Your Excellency, Your Highness the Fifth Princess must be here too, right? It's very safe here. In front is the reception room where General Caroline is.
Okay, now we can invite Her Highness the Fifth Princess to show up."
"Your Highness, since General Hilda has seen through everything, there is no need to hide it anymore."
Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile and nodded to the air beside him.
As soon as Lei Xiao finished speaking, ten subordinates, including Ariel, appeared out of thin air, making the originally empty corridor suddenly become slightly crowded.
In order, they are Gracilaria, Polygonum cuspidatum, Hong Ye, Lian, Erza, Ye Cang, Nan Xing, Nan Yue, Chaoyan, and Ariel.
Since there was a legion of battle dolls outside the fortress to support him, and this was not a hostile area, Lei Xiao did not arrange for his main subordinates to be on standby in secret.
In this way, you can express your sincerity. After all, most of your main combat power is no longer a secret. Secondly, you can naturally show your strength.
"His Excellency Keqing's subordinates are indeed hiding dragons and crouching tigers. Even I can only slightly feel the presence of Your Highness the Fifth Princess and the Flame Witch."
Hilda's obscure and sharp eyes glanced over the main subordinates one by one, and finally stopped on Ariel's delicate face. She stroked her chest respectfully and saluted: "Your Highness, Princess Caroline.
The General has been waiting for you in the private drawing room for a long time."
"No need to be polite, Sir Hilda. Please lead the way."
Ariel took a slow, deep breath, and took her own steps as the apparent leader.
At this moment, Ariel's heart was full of thoughts.
As the youngest princess, I have not met my sister Wang, who is also a princess, for nearly three years, or it could be said that she deliberately stayed away from me.
This fact really made me sad for a long time. After all, before this, I had always regarded Sister Wang as the object of coquettishness and trust.
But just like what the Lord Lord said, maybe Sister Wang really didn't want to be contaminated by the blood of the battlefield prematurely, so she acted like this.
Even if this was indeed the case, if it had been seen before, my unruly and willful self would still have insisted on asking Sister Wang to apologize, or he would have simply lost his temper and not met with Sister Wang.
But now, what I carry is not only my own dream, but also the lord's starry sea, so naturally I won't take this matter to heart anymore.
Because from the moment she left the royal capital, from the moment she met the lord, and from the moment she dedicated everything to the lord, she was no longer the unruly and willful greenhouse princess she was before.
Thinking of this in her mind, Ariel's starry eyes were full of determination, and her steps became more steady.
Ariel clearly understands that in this meeting with Sister Wang, she does not represent herself, but represents the lord's stars and sea, represents her own dreams, and represents the soldiers and people of the eastern region!
"Yes, this girl is getting more and more aura now."
Lei Xiao on the side felt Ariel's firmness and nodded with satisfaction.
Only by letting the third princess truly feel Ariel's growth can she have the possibility of successfully forming an alliance with her.
After all, the third princess shoulders the important task of fighting against the Pars Empire and guarding the northern border of Lengyan. She will never casually put the 50,000 northern border troops in danger, let alone face the 300,000 menacing two men.
Prince Alliance.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, Hilda, the kingdom general who was leading the way, had already knocked on the door of the living room: "For your information, General Caroline, I have been brought here."
"Invite the guests in."
A sassy and clear female voice then sounded.
Compared with Saint Teresa of the Moon Palace, this voice is a little less elegant and calm, but a little more decisive and capable.
"As you command, General."
Hilda nodded slightly and then opened the metal door in front of her.
As the door opened, a brand new space appeared in front of Lei Xiao.
Looking at the door attentively, Lei Xiao noticed.
Just like Hilda said, this seems to be an extremely spacious reception room.
As for why the word "seeming" is used, it is because in addition to the simple wooden tables, chairs and benches, there are various weapons hanging on the walls of the reception room. There are even rows of armor racks and wooden archery targets beside the wall.
At first glance, there are no luxurious decorations at all, only ordinary stone wall and floor tiles, and the cold light reflected from many weapons.
Therefore, instead of calling it a living room, it is more appropriate to call it an indoor training ground.
"I have never seen such a unique living room. This third princess who calls herself the General is truly extraordinary."
"Or perhaps, it would be more appropriate to call him Princess General."
Just as Lei Xiao was thinking this and following Ariel, when he just entered this unique living room, a slender figure had already appeared in front of Ariel.
"My sister, I finally see you!"
The same rustling sound as before entering the door was heard, and a slender and slender figure lifted the unprepared Ariel high into the air with ease, and then hugged each other, looking extremely intimate.
That extremely relaxed movement was as if what he was lifting was not Ariel, but an ordinary doll.
After a moment of surprise, Lei Xiao looked intently and saw clearly the face of the person coming.
I saw that the other party was wearing a fiery red princess dress made of lace and satin. The tight skirt waist perfectly outlined her slender waist.
The fiery red dress with gold inlays made the other party's fair neck particularly eye-catching, which was looming in the slightly curly long hair hanging down like a waterfall.
And his delicate profile with skin as good as snow is almost on par with Ariel's, especially his starry eyes and cocked nose, which are almost carved in the same mold as Ariel.
As for the difference, that is that her figure is taller and she looks more wild. Compared with Ariel, she lacks elegance and intelligence, but has more courage and intelligence.
Bold and unrestrained.
"With the same signature curly hair as Wang Xi, Hilda's name, and a face that is not much different from Ariel, the answer is self-evident. Is this the third princess Caroline?"
"It seems that I made the mistake of blaming Ariel's old father before. He doesn't have any strange habits at all."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly.
However, this is obviously very different from the image of King Kong Barbie in my mind.
"But I still guessed not completely wrong. This time at least the last two characters match, plus the first two characters of Hilda, it is also the correct answer."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this with great interest in his heart.
Ariel, who was a little at a loss, her face flushed, struggled and said: "Sister Wang, I am no longer a child, please let me down quickly."
"Really? Before this, my sister-in-law liked to lift things up the most."
Caroline put Ariel down angrily, with her eyebrows lowered and a look of shock.
"Is this really the third princess, Caroline, the fighting madman who can be called the wolf slayer? There is no difference between her and an ordinary princess, except that she is stronger."
Lei Xiao looked at the pair of princess sisters in front of him, curled his lips slightly, and said in his heart: "Seeing that this princess and general is no different from ordinary people, this is completely beyond my expectation. I didn't expect that the other party would be so normal."
"Are you my sister's guest?"
Caroline turned to Lei Xiao, raised her eyebrows condescendingly and said, "A double cultivator of magic and martial arts, a fourth-level expert? It is simply unimaginable that you are a lord from another world who has just arrived."
"For you, I have indeed arrived not long ago, but for me, I have already arrived for a long time, because I and my territory have been facing life and death challenges everywhere from the beginning."
Lei Xiao smiled gently and responded lightly.
This condescending attitude unique to members of the royal family was naturally familiar to Lei Xiao.
The other party could see his strength at a glance, and Lei Xiao would not be surprised either.
The aura emanating from Caroline's body was obviously much stronger than that of Hilda beside her.
Vaguely, it is even higher than Erza, which undoubtedly shows that the other party's strength is at least level four and eight stars.
"However, no matter how strong the other party is, as long as they can communicate in a friendly manner, the negotiation will go smoothly, right? But I always feel that things are not that simple."
Lei Xiao just thought of this in his mind.
Sure enough, what happened next was indeed far beyond his expectation.
