Chapter 231 The opportunity has come
Looking at the chaotic streets and the fleeing civilians around him, the subordinates around Lei Xiao immediately became alert.
Then they subconsciously began to move closer to Lei Xiao.
"Don't be nervous, we are just a group of insignificant foreign travelers."
Lei Xiao first waved his hand, and then motioned for everyone to turn into a remote alley not far away.
"Lord, what is going on?"
Standing in a deserted narrow passage, Lin asked Lei Xiao while carefully sensing the movements around her.
At the same time, Nan Xing Nan Yue and Aling A Bing were divided into two groups, guarding each end of the alley.
As for the invisible Huzhang and Yecang, they both jumped onto the roofs on both sides and began to conduct further observations.
Surrounding Lei Xiao were Chaoyan, Bai Wei and Lin.
"There was no sign of the enemy invading, but the city gate was urgently closed. Everyone in the city had a sad look on their faces, plus the five powerful men of the city lord's palace who were in a fighting state..."
Lei Xiao, who frowned slightly, unconsciously raised his half-held right hand, put his thumb on his cheek, and gently rubbed the bridge of his nose with his index finger, making a habitual thinking action.
After pondering for a moment, Lei Xiao's brows immediately relaxed, and he smiled lightly and said: "It seems that we have caught up with an excellent opportunity."
"Great opportunity?"
Chaoyan, who transformed into the image of a big-eyed village girl, blinked her eyes in confusion, tilted her head and asked in confusion: "Lord, what kind of opportunity is this?"
"It's very simple. There is no foreign invasion, but it has entered a state of war. If you think about it this way, the answer cannot be clearer."
Looking at Chaoyan's confused look, Lei Xiao reminded him with a smile.
"Lord, are you saying that there is a family fight happening here?"
Lin's rather heroic face suddenly revealed an expression of enlightenment and enlightenment.
After finishing her words, another thought appeared on Lin's fair cheeks, and she muttered: "This Mailan Town has always been controlled by the Zelan family, a viscount family of the Lengyan Kingdom. The current city lord is none other than Zelan. The head of the family.”
"It is said that the head of the family has been at odds with some elders in the family, and this has been going on for a long time."
Speaking of this, Lin concluded: "It seems that these elders must be preparing to seize the position of the head of the family and control of the city, and this matter has just happened for us to catch up!"
"So that's the case. No wonder the lord said that this is an excellent opportunity!"
Chaoyan Xing's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "It seems that we can join in the fun!"
Bai Wei, who had been silent all this time, had a look of confusion on her face, and asked doubtfully: "Lord, there are two other third-level powerhouses in the city, why is there no movement?"
After putting on the illusion cloak, Bai Wei's furry ears and big tail behind her disappeared without a trace.
I saw that while she was confused, there was also a hint of excitement on her face.
For her, who had never set foot in a human city, everything here seemed so fresh and interesting.
After hearing Bai Wei's question, Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and then explained: "Judging from the current situation, although there is tension in the city lord's palace, there are no signs of large-scale mobilization of these garrison troops.
< br>
From this, it is not difficult to see that the two strong men and the garrison in the city should be in a neutral state and did not directly participate in this battle. ”
"The Lord's analysis is very reasonable. After all, this is just a dispute within the family. In essence, the owner of this city has not changed."
Lin nodded in agreement and said thoughtfully: "There is no doubt that the winning party will regain control of everything in this city."
Lin's voice just finished.
The rough voice of the knotweed came from the words again: "Lord Qi, the auras of the five third-level powerhouses in the center of the city have begun to become chaotic, and are also mixed with a lot of second-level auras. Obviously, they are There was a small battle.”
"It seems that the power struggle we encountered has already begun."
After listening to the report of Polygonum Weed, Lei Xiao raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Since we have caught up with this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we naturally cannot miss it easily. We suppressed our breath to the lowest level. Let's get closer and have a look."< br>
"Yes! Lord!"
The subordinates immediately lowered their voices and saluted with their hands on their chests.
Along the deserted old alley, Lei Xiao and his group of ten people moved forward.
Not long after, the outline of a towering castle came into view.
That is the center of the city, where the city lord's palace is located.
Under the bright sunshine, Lei Xiao stood at the entrance of a hidden alley, covering the sun with his hands while looking carefully.
Compared with the three-story city lord's mansion in Kongqing Town.
The city lord's palace in Mailan Town is obviously much taller.
The entire appearance is that of a simple stone castle.
Whether it is arrow towers, battlements, or heavy metal gates, they all give people a sense of majesty and grandeur.
"Good guy, aristocratic families are different. You can't get lost if you live here?"
Lei Xiao curled his lips, turned on his perception to the maximum, and continued to observe.
In this position, it can already be heard clearly.
In the castle, there were fierce clashes of weapons and sounds of fighting, and even magic explosions sounded from time to time.
And in many places in the castle, a lot of thick smoke began to come out.
Even where Lei Xiao was, he could faintly smell a burning smell.
"It seems that this battle has entered a fierce stage just after it started."
Lei Xiao slowly withdrew his gaze, then moved, returned to the alley, and began to ponder.
Just like what I just said.
For myself, this is obviously a rare and excellent opportunity.
It is not even impossible to support one of the parties and take advantage of the situation to bring the entire Mailan Town under its control.
In this way, his strength will obviously rise to a new level!
"This is still an agricultural city. If we can bring it under our control, the problem of food and grass supply in the territory will be more abundant and easy to deal with in the future!"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao rubbed his hands excitedly.
But immediately, Lei Xiao couldn't help but frown slightly.
When the ins and outs of the matter are still unclear.
How to skillfully break into this dispute has become an extremely critical issue.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.
The rough and steady voice of the knotweed came through again: "Lord, just now, two groups of people left the castle quickly one after another. The momentum of the group in front was obviously much weaker. , and the ones behind him were chasing after them with murderous intent, it should be a life-and-death chase.”
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao's face couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy, and he smiled slightly and said: "It seems that our opportunity has come." (End of Chapter)
