Chapter 320 The Weird Magnet City Lord【5K】
"It turns out that it's because I can't see through the strength of anyone in the room... Moreover, that burly man seems to be a fifth-level strong man with monstrous strength!"
At this moment, Nate looked at Lei Xiao, who was sitting at the top, and the subordinates standing proudly, and there was a shocking wave in his heart.
He never thought that the gentle-faced young man in front of him would actually hide such a huge amount of energy!
"He actually has the allegiance of a fifth-level powerhouse. Who is this young master? Is he really just a city lord?"
Looking up at Lei Xiao with a calm expression not far away, Nate's throat rolled and he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of spit.
This kind of strength is naturally more than enough to deal with the two second-level and well-equipped mine guards!
Realizing this, Nate's resolute face suddenly showed a hint of uncontrollable joy.
If this lord is really willing, help them, the residents of Magnet Town.
So, these dark days are really about to usher in the light before dawn!
"Guan Zhong's character is upright and upright, so much so that he is quite at odds with the former city lord of Kongqing Town. I know this."
While overjoyed, Nate continued to think in his mind: "However, the fact that this new city lord is able to impress such a crowd, be so full of praise, and willing to bow his head is enough to show that he is definitely an extraordinary person."
"What's even more incredible is that this gentleman is actually willing to save the residents of Kongqing Town who have been trapped for many years..."
"Oh, my Lord, if I could be half as generous as I am, our Magnet Town would not be in such a state of desperation for the people!"
Thinking of this, the crisp sound of armor clashing sounded, and Nate lowered his head, knelt down on one knee in front of Lei Xiao and said: "Commander Nate of the Magnet Town garrison, please see the Lord of Kongqing Town!"
"No need to be polite, Commander Nate."
Nodding with satisfaction, Lei Xiao raised his hand slightly, motioning for the other party to stand up, and then said: "I think you should already know the purpose of our trip, right? This trip also needs the help of Commander Nate. I apologize for the inconvenience. ”
"Sir, what are you talking about?"
Nate quickly waved his hand and said a little flattered: "To be honest, in recent years, due to the city lord's insistence on going his own way and ordering all the people to mine at all costs, the entire Magnet Town has almost reached the brink of collapse."
< br>
"It is so difficult to guarantee the most basic food, clothing, housing and transportation. Coupled with the high-intensity work, hunger and cold are everywhere in the city, and the population has dropped sharply."
"If this continues, I'm afraid Magnet Town will become an empty town in a few years."
Having said this, Nate sighed, shook his head helplessly, and said: "Even our two brigades of the Magnet Town garrison take turns guarding and mining. As for military pay, let alone ”
"Have you really reached the point where you are desperate?"
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao raised the tea cup, took a sip of the fragrant tea that A Ling had just brewed, and then said: "What happened at that time that caused the Lord of Magnet City to make such a desperate move to carry out national mining?"< br>
"Sir, I don't understand this either."
Sighing again, Nate, who was full of melancholy, shook his head in confusion and continued: "You must have already known, sir. Back then, this Blazing Crystal Mine was originally created by the former Lord of Kongqing City and our magnet." Develop together with the city lord.
At first, everything was normal. However, one day, the situation changed unexpectedly. ”
Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and motioned for the other party to continue speaking.
"Once, our Lord of Magnet Town suddenly gathered all of us officials from the town together and announced that from now on Magnet Town would independently develop mineral veins. He also ordered the elimination of the mercenary guild, merchant association, and other organizations in the city. Merchant Trade Fair and all other forces in the city.”
Nate's eyes were blurry, obviously lost in memories: "At that time, all the officials who opposed were imprisoned by the city lord. It was also during that time that our city lord came from Outside the city, two mine defense squadrons were recruited."
I saw Nate holding his fist and continued: "These two mine defense squadrons are all above the second level and are well-equipped. They also have three third-level experts sitting in charge."
"As for our two garrison brigades, I am the only commander of the third level. We don't have enough food every day, and our weapons and equipment are in tatters. In addition, the other party controls our families and uses coercion and inducement. We have just endured it until now.”
"However, to be honest, sir, during this period of time, we have been unable to bear it anymore and are also looking for opportunities to make them taste the pain."
At this point, Nate's clenched fists began to turn white.
"That's it."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao motioned to A Bing, who was standing beside him, to pour Nate a cup of tea and continued to listen.
"Thank you very much, sir!"
After receiving the steaming smooth white porcelain cup, Nate, who was somewhat flattered, pondered for a moment.
Then he said: "By the way, there is one more thing. Back then, under the order of our city lord, I secretly transported various precious collections worth hundreds of thousands of golden dragons to the outskirts of Kongqing Town, and delivered them by my predecessor. The mercenary group under Lord Kongqing received it.”
"I remembered..."
Hearing this, Guan Zhong suddenly showed a look of enlightenment.
He said thoughtfully: "I remember that a few years ago, the former city lord suddenly obtained a large number of valuable items, and then he happily invested one-third of the money to replace them with new ones for me and several other garrison captains. The second-level equipment. Now that I think about it, it’s time to withdraw from the mine!”
Having said this, Guanzhong couldn't help but feel a little more uncontrollable reverence when looking at Lei Xiao.
No matter from which aspect, compared with the current lord, the former Lord of Kong Qing City is simply not worth mentioning.
"I understand. It turns out that the former city lord finally bowed down to a large amount of money. This is indeed in line with his style of robbery."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.
"Indeed, it's no wonder that the former city lord gave up mining. According to a rough estimate, hundreds of thousands of golden dragons are equivalent to the total revenue of Magnet Town's mining volume in several years."
Lin on the side also showed a suddenly enlightened expression.
But immediately, a look of confusion appeared on her pretty face: "But in this case, things become even more strange. Why did the Lord of Magnet City do this? Isn't this equivalent to taking away the interests of the mine for several years? , have they all been handed over to the former Lord of Kongqing City?”
"Not only that, but what is even more difficult to understand is that in the past few years, our Lord Magnet City has not exported the excavated ore at all, but has kept it all in his own hands..."
Nate's resolute face was full of confusion, and he added: "Moreover, even the city lord's palace was moved directly to a mine filled with a large amount of ore, which is simply unbelievable."
< br>
"The excavated ore was not exported? Did you directly move the city lord's palace into the mine?"
Hearing this, everyone present also showed puzzled expressions.
"That's right, our city lord has ruled Magnet Town for more than ten years. Before that, he was just a bit irritable and irritable, far from the crazy level he is now." Nate shook his head again, There is no choice but to say.
"So, did the Lord of Magnet City suddenly change after mining the veins?"
Hearing this, Lei Xiao rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "It seems that all of this is obviously inextricably linked to the blazing crystal veins, so much so that he would rather give up a large number of golden dragons to be with his predecessor. The Lord of Kongqing City parted ways and chose to take possession of this mine alone.”
"But, this is too confusing."
Lindai frowned slightly and said: "What kind of magic power does this blazing crystal vein have, so that the Lord of Magnet City is so obsessed with it? That he moved it directly into the mine?"
"We don't know yet about this."
After pondering for a moment, Lei Xiao drank all the tea in the cup and concluded: "What is certain at present is that this price is not considered to be the top blazing flame crystal, and it is obviously very attractive to the Lord of Magnet City.
Moreover, this kind of attraction far exceeds the normal scope, allowing it to give up a large amount of wealth, residents under its rule, and even the entire city. As for why this situation that goes against common sense is caused, I am afraid that only that Only the Lord of Magnet City knew about it. ”
"I have to say, this is all really confusing."
A rustling voice sounded, and Lin nodded thoughtfully.
"Okay, now that we have learned about this, the next thing is very clear, that is to first cut off the Wing Mine Guards of the Lord of Magnet City, and then just ask him directly."
Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Lei Xiao stood up from his seat and spoke to the powerful men and Nate at the bottom.
"Please rest assured, sir, in this operation, our two garrison brigades in Magnet Town will fully cooperate with your actions and fight side by side with you!"
Directly opposite, Nate couldn't help but look excited, and said, "I've long wanted to cut those evil-doing guys into pieces!"
……
In the central city of Magnet Town, the mine guard team headquarters.
In a spacious and bright hall, a middle-aged man with a sullen face was sitting at the top with his eyes closed and meditating.
Below him, there were more than ten strong men standing with equally formidable faces.
"Vice Captain, the work efficiency of these Kongqing Town residents has dropped significantly recently. Should they be allowed to see blood?"
I saw a skinny man at the bottom, smiling.
"Just kill a few less and let them remember it for a long time."
Nodding slightly, the angry man at the top slowly opened his eyes and said calmly.
"By the way, deputy captain, Yanjiao led the team to deal with a lame miner from Kongqing Town. He hasn't come back yet. Should we send someone to have a look?"
The thin man bowed and saluted again.
"Don't worry, that guy from Yanjiao is tall and powerful, but he is a second-level peak master. Is there something that might have delayed him on his way back?"
Before the angry man could speak, another strong man in the lower position smiled lewdly.
"Hey, that's right."
The skinny man suddenly showed the same smile.
Then, he said to the angry man at the top: "Vice-captain, our captain has been meeting a senior bandit of the fourth level for a few days. There should be results, right?"
"It should be soon. Recently, Nate, who seems harmless to humans and animals, always feels that he is doing something behind his back. Then, naturally, they will let these wastes completely stop thinking about it."
The angry man nodded slightly and said: "In addition, according to the captain, the Lord of Magnet City has been getting weirder and weirder recently.
The aura exuded from his body made even the captain at the peak level of the third level feel a terrible threat. When the fourth level senior comes, maybe this magnet town will be our world. ”
"Hahaha, great, then you can naturally do whatever you want!"
Hearing this, a sinister smile appeared on the skinny man's face, and he quickly agreed.
At the same time, other strong men also laughed.
Just when these strong men were talking about this, with a dull sound, the door that was originally closed was suddenly slowly pushed open.
Immediately afterwards, surrounded by a crowd of figures, a tall and straight young man first caught the eyes of these strong men exuding murderous aura.
This person is naturally Lei Xiao.
Behind Lei Xiao, standing were none other than the main subordinates and Nate.
"Who?"
In surprise, the angry man in the upper position looked at Lei Xiao, who was standing calmly not far away.
At the same time, a murderous aura erupted from this violent man.
Immediately afterwards, the other strong men in the starting position immediately made the same action and drew out the long swords at their waists.
You know, this is the headquarters hall of their mine guard team, and the residents in the city usually avoid it.
And this young man with an indifferent expression was the first person in history who had the courage to push open the door and take the initiative to walk in.
This is undoubtedly challenging the absolute authority of their mine guard team.
Immediately, when the angry man saw Nate clearly behind Lei Xiao, he said gloomily: "Nate, what do you mean by bringing these people here?"
Before Nate could speak, Lei Xiao said calmly: "It's not interesting, it's just to clean up the garbage."
"What?!"
Hearing this, the strong men exuding murderous aura were startled, and then started laughing.
"Did I hear you correctly? This stupid young man actually came to our mine defense team headquarters to make such arrogant remarks?
"Hahaha, is this some new Warcraft circus show?"
"Although this guy is a little stupid, he is quite talented in the field of comedy."
……
"Boy, if you want to die, I will let you die!"
Listening to the sarcasm of his subordinates, the angry man at the top also began to laugh wildly.
I saw that he did not hesitate, grabbed the spear that was emitting cold light next to him, and rushed out with lightning speed.
For a moment, energy wrapped around the metal gun handle, and the sharp tip of the gun broke through the air, making a sharp and sharp gun roar, and attacked Lei Xiao crazily.
You must know that this violent man has reached the level of the third-order eight-star, and is only one step away from the peak of the third-order power.
In the entire mine guard team, and even in the entire Magnet Town, except for the mine guard captain at the peak level of the third level, and the mysterious Magnet City Lord.
No one can resist this majestic blow!
Just as the smiles on the faces of the other strong men in the mine defense team grew stronger, their minds began to imagine how to torture and kill this group of guys who didn't know how to live or die.
The roar of the dragon sounded, followed by a dazzling bright light.
The arrogant man who attacked at a very fast speed turned into a blood mist together with the spear in his hand, and was cut into two pieces by a silver trajectory.
At the same time, a tall and burly figure stood in front of Lei Xiao. It was none other than Tigerweed.
The moment he stood still, the colorful dragon-slaying giant sword was retracted into the space ring by the tiger stick.
"What happened?!"
"How could this happen?!"
"Vice Captain, how did you die?"
After a moment of sluggishness, the remaining strong men of the mine guard suddenly showed uncontrollable panic on their faces.
They didn't even see clearly the movements of the tiger stick!
And those who can do this are naturally only the strong men of the fourth level... Just when these strong men panicked.
Two extremely impressive momentums swept out from the back of the hall in an instant.
"Not only did you break into the headquarters of my mine guard team, but you also killed my deputy captain. Today, you all have to die here!"
"Jie Jie Jie, I haven't seen blood for a few days and my hands are itchy. Let me, a fourth-level strong man, go on a killing spree."
Hearing this, the strong men who were frightened just now suddenly showed expressions of uncontrollable excitement.
"It's the captain's voice. The captain has welcomed the fourth-level senior back!"
"Haha, brothers, follow the captain and kill these reckless guys!"
"That's right, what's so great about a fourth-level powerhouse? We also have a fourth-level powerhouse here!"
Feeling the two murderous figures speeding towards him, Lei Xiao looked calm and nodded to the knotweed again.
In an instant, the burly man in front of him turned into a shooting star and went straight towards him.
As another fatal silver trajectory flashed by, the fourth-level strong man whose face had not yet been seen clearly, and the mine guard captain, were cut in two by two swords as expected.
"Okay, let's start clearing the place."
After glancing at the opponent's strong man who was in a sluggish state again, Lei Xiao was too lazy to continue talking nonsense to these people and turned around and left the hall.
The subordinates, who were already ready to go, immediately started a bloody storm here. (End of chapter)
