Chapter 382 Mysterious Place


Chapter 382 Mysterious Place

"I remember that at that time, my subordinate was resting in a hotel in the south of Shanjing Principality. But just as he was lying on the bed, preparing to fall asleep, the whole hotel suddenly shook slightly, and there was also a sound similar to a hard sound. The sound of objects breaking through walls.”

"However, the harsh sound and sudden tremor quickly passed by in a flash. In addition, my subordinates had not yet reached the third level and were relatively weak. Therefore, for the sake of caution, I did not Go out and check it out for a while.”

I saw Lin still maintaining a bowed posture and describing to Lei Xiao: "The next morning, when my subordinates asked the hotel owner and other hotel staff about the situation, everyone had a blank look on their faces, as if Nothing happened.”

"Oh? Is there such a thing?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but look surprised, and then asked: "Besides, are there any abnormal energy fluctuations or anything else worth noting?"

"Return to the lord, no."

Shaking her head helplessly, Lin responded: "In addition, since I was the only foreigner who stayed overnight in the hotel that day, I could not verify it with other travelers. Therefore, in the end, the matter was dropped."< br>


At this point, Lin pondered for a moment and then added: "The reason why my subordinates still remember this incident is because the hotel owner and other hotel staff had obviously uncomfortable expressions at the time, but they deliberately kept silent. , it has to be confusing.”

"So, the Shanjing Principality is indeed a bit weird..."

Kunbu seemed to have thought of something, and echoed: "Because this remote small country is located in the mountains and is surrounded by desolate people, except for us businessmen and occasional travelers, few people have set foot on it."

"And the residents there are even more unwilling to communicate with outsiders, and are even a little disgusted with other people outside. However, my businessman friend is an exception."

After finishing speaking, Kunbu thought for a moment, and then added: "By the way, Lord, there is another weird thing about this Shanjing Principality, that is, when settling the payment with Leng Yan merchants like us, they only use golden dragons for settlement. , would rather pay more than accept the change from the Silver Dragon and the Bronze Dragon..."

"It seems that the Shanjing Principality is really a rather mysterious country."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and ordered in a deep voice: "It's still early, it's just past noon. After a quick lunch, let's go directly to Shanjing Principality."

"Yes! Lord!"

All the subordinates immediately bowed, stroking their chests and saluting.

Just like that, after simply eating some sandwiches and desserts in the spacious banquet hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

Lei Xiao ordered Ye Cang to quickly return to the territory and bring Sean and ten other third-level pterodactyl knights to Kongqing Town.

Since the destination of this trip, the Shanjing Principality, is surrounded by a sky pterosaur habitat.

Then, the fastest way is naturally to let Sean and others tame their new mounts directly on the spot.

While waiting, Lei Xiao also took a detailed look at the storage ring left by Luo Ji.

Among them, in addition to nearly 500,000 golden dragons and some ordinary valuable works of art.

Lei Xiao found a level 4 knight sword, a set of level 4 plate armor, plus the level 4 dagger that was removed from his body at the beginning, a total of three pieces of level 4 equipment, and 10 level 2 healing stones. Potion.

Don’t hesitate and start upgrading directly.

[Congratulations, your "Level 4 weapon: Templar Warrior Sword" has been upgraded to "Level 5 weapon: Sword of Glory"! 】

[Congratulations, your "Level 4 Weapon: Storm Short Blade" has been upgraded to 100 "Level 4 Weapon: Storm Short Blade"! 】

[Congratulations, your "Level 4 Armor: Brave Plate Armor" has been upgraded to "Level 5 Armor: Dragon Slayer Armor"! 】

The 10 second-level healing potions were upgraded to 500 second-level healing potions and 5 third-level healing potions respectively.

"Good guy, have you obtained two more pieces of fifth-level equipment?"

After hearing the familiar prompt, Lei Xiao immediately opened the attribute bar of the new fifth-level equipment.

【Name: Sword of Glory】

[Grade: Level 5 Extraordinary (Silver)]

【Attack strength: ★★★★★★】

[Additional Effect 1: Brilliance "Significantly increases damage when using light attribute skills"]

[Additional Effect 2: Holy Glory "Increases damage to dark attribute enemies by 100%"]

[Remarks: This is a bright weapon that has been blessed by a saint. In addition to being tempered by a fifth-level forging master, the hilt is also inlaid with a holy light gem, which can greatly increase the damage of light attribute skills. . 】

[Name: Dragon Slayer Armor]

[Grade: Level 5 Extraordinary (Silver)]

【Defense Strength: ★★★★★★】

[Additional Effect 1: Dragon Nemesis "Increases damage to dragons by 80%"]

[Additional Effect 2: Magic Resistance "Half Magic Damage Below Level 5"]

[Remarks: The top-grade plate armor is made of rare and light meteorite steel. Its lightness and flexibility when worn are comparable to light armor.

Moreover, during the forging process, the abyss magma that the dragons fear is used to quench, while increasing the damage to the dragons, the dragon scales of the fifth-level dragons are also added, further improving the anti-magic ability of the plate armor. 】

After closing the attribute columns of the two brand new fifth-level equipment, Lei Xiao couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy on his face, and thought to himself: "Let this fifth-level knight sword be used by the newly conquered Ju Bai."

"As for the fifth-level plate armor, needless to say, it is definitely the knotweed."

Having made up his mind, Lei Xiao was in the quiet reception room.

He called the burly man to his side, handed this set of brilliant plate armor into his hands, and said with a smile: "Polygonum cuspidatum, I once said that I will match you with a suit of armor that fits you well. This suit You can wear it first. We will definitely get more and better equipment in the near future.”

"I am extremely grateful to the lord, my subordinates are willing to go through fire and water for the lord!"

He bowed and took the set of equipment handed over by Lei Xiao. The excitement on Huzhang's face was beyond words. He knelt down on one knee and bowed his head deeply to Lei Xiao.

"Okay, let's try it."

After helping the other party up, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

"Understood, please wait a moment, Lord."

I saw the knotweed's mind moved, and the heavy armor in his hand was directly put into the storage ring.

The next second, when the armor appeared again, it was already worn on the burly body of the knotweed.

For a time, this set of top-grade plate armor, which was dark golden in color and painted with black textures on its surface, shone brightly, making the majestic momentum of the knotweed body become more powerful and domineering.

“Not bad, not bad, very suitable.”

Nodding with satisfaction, Lei Xiao couldn't help but show a hint of contemplation, and thought to himself: "Speaking of which, can you use the storage ring to directly equip it? Before this, I did hear Jiang Li mention this kind of A special way to dress up.”

"Only the holder of the storage space can master this skill and wear the armor directly on himself while summoning it."

"I have to say that this is indeed a very convenient thing. After all, wearing armor all the time makes it difficult to move around sometimes. In this way, I can better hide my strength. I will also practice well later."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao nodded to the knotweed again, and then said: "Okay, let's go out and see if everyone else is here. It's time to set off for Shanjing Principality."

"Yes! Lord!"

The excited Huzhang immediately returned to his normal civilian clothes and followed Lei Xiao out of the room.

Not long after, Ye Cang appeared in front of Lei Xiao with Sean and ten other third-level pterodactyl knights.

"See you Lord!"

The ten lightly-armed pterodactyl knights immediately bowed and bowed their heads deeply to Lei Xiao.

"No need to be polite."

Waving his hand gently, Lei Xiao handed the invisibility cloak and invisibility ring to the newcomers Sean and others, while smiling: "This time, you can finally get your own dragon mount."
< br>

"Thank you very much, Lord!"

Hearing this, Sean and others couldn't help but show a hint of joy on their faces, and they spoke excitedly.

Looking at the excited expressions of the pterodactyl knights, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment and gave each of Sean and others a running pill.

At present, only Sean is a third-level five-star senior expert, and the other nine are all third-level three-star. In terms of movement speed, they will inevitably be slower than the other main experts.

The walking pill, which can increase movement speed, can make up for this gap to a considerable extent.

"Okay, without further ado, let Lin lead the way and let's set off."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, stepped onto the giant white wolf, and said to the subordinates standing respectfully beside him: "Target, Shanjing Principality!"

"Yes! Lord!"

All the subordinates immediately bowed and saluted, saying in unison.

Just like that, not long after, the scene that appeared in front of Lei Xiao was an endless green plain.

"This time, in addition to the six people who followed me, Huzhang, Yecang, Chaoyan, Bai Wei, A Ling, and A Bing, there were also 10 people from the pterodactyl knight team including Lin who led the way, and Sean. .”

I saw Lei Xiao, who was riding on the white wolf, lowering his body, feeling the howling wind coming towards him, and thinking secretly in his heart.

"Including myself, the number of people has reached 18, and there are 1 fifth-order strong, 2 fourth-order strong, 5 third-order peak strong, and 11 third-order strong."


"I have to say that my team is really getting stronger."

Facing the biting wind, Lei Xiao immediately opened his territory interface and began to check it out.

[Lord's Mansion Level: 7 (You can receive 3 "Second-Level Recruitment Orders" every day, or 18 "First-Level Recruitment Orders", and you can receive 1 "City Return Crystal" every day)]

[Lots: 5 "Kongqing Town lv3" "Mailan Town lv4" "Magnet Town lv3" "Shuiyue City lv5" "Red Arrow Town lv2"]

[Storage space: omitted]

"Has the number of my direct subordinates reached 932?"

Looking at the information on the territory interface, Lei Xiao first opened the summary interface of [Population].

【Lord x1 "Self"】

[Level 5 Strongman x1 "Polygonum Stick"]

[Level 4 strongman x5 "Ye Cang, Chao Yan, Nan Xing, Nan Yue, Ju Bai"]

【Level 3 Strongman x42】

"Not bad, not bad. In addition to the fifth-level strongman Huzhang, Ye Cang and other five fourth-level strongmen, including the commander's third-level strongman, the number of direct third-level strongmen under my command has reached 53. .”

"And they are distributed in Kongqing Town, Cishi Town, Mailan Town, Shuiyue City, and Chijian Town. These five are already in my territory, and there are still a few in Gelin City, Fanyin City, and In the camp of Leng Yan’s fifth princess, Ariel.”

While observing the data on the population summary interface, Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction.

After closing the population summary interface, Lei Xiao's eyes fell on the two surrendered tribes again, and he couldn't help but look thoughtful.

"Of course, apart from the above-mentioned combat power, there are also seven third-level strong men in my two surrendered tribes."

"They are Bai Zhi from the half-elf clan, Bai Wei from the werewolf clan, the clan leader Shi Feng, Lu Ying and other three elders, and Osen."

"In this way, including myself, the number of third-level powerhouses has reached 61."

"This number is almost equal to the number of third-level powerhouses that Leng Yan and Sheng Ye invested on the border battlefield at the beginning."

Realizing this, Lei Xiao's face couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy.

However, just for a moment, his expression couldn't help but become serious again, and he continued to think.

"Of course, the troops deployed by Leng Yan and Sheng Ye on the border battlefield are just the tip of the iceberg of their overall strength.

"However, compared to me at that time, the progress has been very significant in such a period of time."

At this time, Lei Xiao opened the detailed interfaces of the two surrendered tribes and continued to check them.

"Currently, in addition to the two most elite second-level squadrons from these two tribes stationed in the territory, there are also two reserve first-level archer squadrons within the half-elf barrier."

"As for the werewolf tribe's new residence, there are five first-order warrior squadrons and four reserve first-order warrior squadrons. After I gave Shi Feng a large amount of Qi Condensing Pills, the five first-order warrior squadrons of the werewolf tribe , they will all be promoted to second-level warrior squadrons soon.”

After closing the details interface of the surrendered tribe, Lei Xiao's eyes fell on the territory column on the territory interface again, muttering to himself.

"At this stage, leaving aside the territory itself in the Shadow Forest and the two surrendered tribes, the number of towns I actually control has reached five."

"The three cities closest to the territory are Kongqing Town, Mailan Town, and Magishi Town. These three cities can form a line of defense to protect the security of the territory."

"As for the number of garrison troops in the three cities, they are 3 light infantry brigades in Kongqing Town with a total of 3,000 people, 2 light infantry brigades and 1 light cavalry brigades in Mailan Town with a total of 3,000 people, and 2 light infantry in Magishi Town. Brigade, 2,000 people in total.”

"As for the newly cleared Red Arrow Town today, let's not talk about it for now because the mercenaries have not yet formed combat effectiveness. In other words, there are a total of 8,000 garrison troops that can be mobilized around the territory."

"In addition, there is Shuiyue City far away on the other side of the Songyin Mountains. There are 2 light infantry brigades and 1 light cavalry brigades, with a total of 3,000 people. That is the total force of my territory, which is currently 11,000. It has reached the size of a legion.”

Realizing this, Lei Xiao, who was riding on the wolf's back, couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and showed a smile of relief.

"Although compared with the Lengyan royal family, which has eight legions, my current strength is still somewhat insufficient."

"But these garrison forces, except for Kongqing Town, are my hidden strength after all. If they are not exposed openly, at the critical moment, they will definitely give the opponent a head-on attack."

"Furthermore, those eight legions are not monolithic. Once I take down the giant ax general Bert and even Ariel, I will naturally be able to get more information."

Seeing this, Lei Xiao closed the territory interface and began to refocus his attention on the scene in front of him.

At this time, a group of eighteen people, under Lin's guidance, had arrived at a mixed area of ​​hills and mountains from the endless green plains.

Lei Xiao was no stranger to this area. At that time, when he was heading to the border battlefield, he had passed through this area.

"It seems that this time's destination, Shanjing Principality, is no longer far away."

While chasing the wind and lightning, I saw Lei Xiao tightly holding the fluffy white fur on the wolf's back, narrowing his eyes slightly, and muttering to himself in his heart.

"Then, let me take a closer look at what is so unusual about this mysterious country located in the mountains and almost isolated from the world." (End of Chapter)
