Chapter 258 The Princess’s Welcome Banquet
Just like this, after thinking for a while, Lei Xiao first nodded to the knotweed, indicating to the other party to wrap the entire hall with energy and completely isolate it from the outside world.
Then he told the sassy female knight at the bottom: "Lin, when I'm not here, Ariel will definitely ask you for information about me. At that time, the more mysterious and unpredictable the information, the better." , the purpose is to make the other party unclear about our specific strength and the location of our territory.”
"I obey! Lord, please rest assured!"
Lin, dressed in military uniform, took a step forward, bowed and took orders.
"In addition, Lin, there is another most critical task for you."
Lei Xiao picked up the exquisite white porcelain cup and took a sip of tea.
Then he continued: "In order of strength, investigate the detailed information of the two kingdom generals, five third-level personal maids, and two squadrons of personal guards around Princess Ariel as soon as possible. If we want to completely deal with this Leng Yan’s fifth princess must start with the people around her.”
"Yes! Lord!"
Lin bowed again and responded without hesitation.
"Nan Xing, Nan Yue, starting from today, you two will stay in Kongqing Town temporarily and monitor every move of Ariel and others."
Lei Xiao put down the tea cup, and with a thought, two invisible cloaks as thin as cicada wings appeared in his hands.
I saw him waving to the twin sisters to come forward to get it, and at the same time said: "With your current strength as a third-level peak assassin, coupled with the concealment effect of the invisibility cloak, as long as you are not too close, even if you are It is difficult for the two kingdom generals, who are at the level of fourth-level senior experts, to report anything to me in a timely manner, including all Ariel’s words and deeds.”
After handing the cloak to the two of them, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment and then added: "Another of your tasks is to assist the castle guards to prevent other assassins from sneaking into the city lord's mansion."
"Yes! Lord!"
Sisters Nan Xing and Nan Yue moved in unison, stroking their chests and saluting, and responded respectfully.
"In addition, I will also keep the two squadrons of great swordsmen and the squadron of magicians here."
Lei Xiao took another sip of the steaming tea and said again: "And, I will instruct Zhusha to lead a squadron of magicians to build a "Eye of Insight" magic barrier in the city lord's mansion. ”
"In this way, in addition to the five squadrons of guards, the defense force of the Lord's Mansion will be further strengthened, and we can better keep an eye on every move of Princess Ariel's two guards."
Having said this, Lei Xiao looked at the middle-aged garrison commander next to him and said: "As for the specific job arrangements and the coordination work in the middle, Guanzhong, I will leave it to you."
"Yes! Lord!"
The sound of armors clashing neatly sounded, and the generals stepped forward, bowed and took orders.
"Ye Cang, you should stay here for the time being. After all, the other party has two fourth-level powerhouses. We must make sure everything is safe."
Lei Xiao shook the tea cup in his hand and said to the muscular priest at the bottom.
"Leave it to my subordinates, Lord."
After bowing gracefully to Lei Xiao, Ye Cang couldn't help but have a look of amusement on his face.
Then he smiled lightly and said: "To be honest with you Lord, I am very interested in the rare profession among the Holy Light Priests, the fourth-level female Holy Sword Priest. If the other party makes any changes, I will definitely not show mercy. ”
“Very good.”
Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face again.
At this point, my layout has completely come to an end.
If Ariel and her party have other ulterior motives, under the surveillance of Nan Xing Nan Yue, there will inevitably be flaws in the short term.
Through Lin's investigation, he can also be targeted and wait for an opportunity to subdue one or more of Ariel's followers.
From these people, we can intuitively understand the true situation of Ariel and her group.
Only by taking this two-pronged approach can we comprehensively judge whether Ariel and others have other intentions and ideas that are detrimental to the territory.
Otherwise, even if you directly ask the other party for information about the Leng Yan royal family, what you get is likely to be false news.
This is exactly why I didn't rush to do this just now.
"Everyone must remember that when facing the fifth princess Leng Yan and her party, you must not rush for success. You must act cautiously and cautiously."
After drinking all the tea in the white porcelain cup, Lei Xiao, who was sitting on the throne, nodded slightly.
"Yes! Lord!"
All the subordinates at the bottom bowed in order and said in unison.
"Okay, the banquet should be almost ready. After a short rest, let's have a feast."
Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction and smiled lightly.
Not long after, Lei Xiao and his party went straight to the banquet hall next to the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
I saw that the huge banquet was brightly lit by a large number of light crystals that shined like LED lights.
On the long tables covered with milky white hollow embroidered carved tablecloths, exquisite silver vessels were used to hold a variety of bread, meat, dairy products, pastries and wine.
At a glance, all kinds of food and wine are neatly arranged, which makes people feel dizzy.
The rich aroma of meat mixed with spices and the sweet caramel aroma of freshly baked bread hit your nose and make people salivate.
The officials from Kongqing Town had already been waiting here. When they saw Lei Xiao coming, they all saluted respectfully, with expressions of admiration on their faces.
This morning, the wonderful scene where the Lord City Lord appeared has undoubtedly been deeply engraved in the minds of each of them.
After Lin's introduction, Lei Xiao gradually met some of the main officials in Kongqing Town.
After briefly listening to the officials' work situation, Lei Xiao used various kinds of chicken soup for the soul that were already at his disposal to greet and encourage everyone.
It is worth mentioning that Lei Xiao has naturally made arrangements for the apparent identities of Lin and Fang Hai.
In front of Ariel, the two of them always appeared as advisors to the city lord, and there was nothing wrong with them even if she asked.
In addition, he can also serve as a member of the Merchant Family to infiltrate the lords of other worlds, as a further cover to prevent Ariel and his party from becoming suspicious.
"Everyone, as long as we unite sincerely and work together, Kongqing Town will definitely become more beautiful and prosperous in the future. Even becoming the largest city in Lengyan is not impossible."< br>
"At that time, you and I will all become witnesses of this historical moment!"
Just when Lei Xiao unknowingly wanted to turn this welcome banquet into a personal speech conference.
Princess Ariel and her party arrived at the venue together under the guidance of several maids.
"Dear Fifth Princess, welcome to my city."
Upon seeing this, Lei Xiao, surrounded by his subordinates, slowly walked forward and smiled at Princess Ariel. (End of chapter)
