Chapter 469 The arrival of new forces
嘤嘤～啾!
In the early morning, when the first ray of dawn and the pale twin moons still in the sky appeared in the hazy sky at the same time.
As soon as Lei Xiao opened his eyes, he heard the long-lost chirping of a bird.
"Have the warblers appeared again? Their whereabouts are really erratic."
The sleepy Lei Xiao sat up from the bed with his lips curled up, muttering to himself: "These little things have the ability to disturb the atmosphere, so just let them be."
"Let the knowledgeable subordinates study whether large-scale breeding can be carried out, further develop this characteristic, and make the territory more hidden."
Lei Xiao, who was sitting cross-legged, was thinking this while his mind moved, and a round rose energy gathering pill appeared on the palm of his hand.
Feeling the elegant fragrance emanating from it, Lei Xiao swallowed it directly and began his daily morning practice.
After a while, Lei Xiao, who closed his eyes and concentrated, quickly became familiar with the process and completely refined the third-level magic potion.
With a breath of turbid breath, a ray of light cyan light stayed in Lei Xiao's dark eyes for a while, and then slowly dissipated.
This undoubtedly means that the vortex of magical energy in Lei Xiao's body has once again been filled to a new level.
"Has your strength improved again?"
Feeling energetic, Lei Xiao rolled out of bed and opened his attribute bar.

"With two more stars, I will be able to reach the level of a double third-level peak expert. It's really exciting!"
Lei Xiao nodded excitedly, then walked to the bathroom and started washing up.
Not long after, Lei Xiao, who was neatly dressed, walked out of the lord's suite with vigorous steps.
As for the hygiene in the room and the changed clothes, there will naturally be several third-level maids coming to clean them later, so Lei Xiao doesn't need to worry.
Passing through the quaint castle corridor and arriving at the lord's office nearby, Lei Xiao directly received 5 second-level recruitment orders.
"Currently, there are still three squadrons in the territory. As long as there are three quantitative changes, the goal will be achieved."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and started to upgrade directly.
A familiar prompt soon rang in his ears.
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to "Third Level Recruitment Order"! 】
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to 107 "Second Level Recruitment Orders"! 】
[Congratulations, your "Level 2 Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to "Level 4 Recruitment Order"! 】
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to 105 "Second Level Recruitment Orders"! 】
[Congratulations, your "Second Level Recruitment Order" has been upgraded to 108 "Second Level Recruitment Orders"! 】
When the prompt ended, Lei Xiao's face was filled with joy and he rubbed his hands excitedly.
"Not only did I successfully obtain the second-level recruitment order for recruiting three squadrons, but I also obtained a fourth-level recruitment order!"
"Now in addition to Fanyin City Lord Al, Kelly's president father Gale can also be conquered!"
Overjoyed, Lei Xiao came to the wooden storage box and traded the reverse resources of Su Ru, Su Mo and other five lords, as well as Shen Banxia, and ordered them to make exquisite logging axes to obtain iron. ingot.
Then, Lei Xiao also set up his manufacturing sequence, starting with the logging axe.
"Including me, the seven lords consumed a total of 16,800 units of iron ore and 16,800 units of wood? It's just a trivial matter."
Lei Xiao, who was in a good mood, strode out of the lord's office and went down the spiral staircase of the castle to the first floor of the mansion.
"Good morning, Lord!"
I saw the old butler Ward with a white mouth cloth on his arm, and four third-level maids with exquisite makeup, already waiting here, and they all bowed to Lei Xiao.
"Thank you for the hard work on yesterday's banquet arrangements."
Lei Xiao took the black tea handed by one of the maids and nodded with satisfaction.
Then, Lei Xiao looked at the old butler's straight black tuxedo and long, shiny gray hair, and added: "Ward, it's all thanks to you this time."
"Your Majesty, your words are serious. This is the responsibility of the subordinates. Furthermore, it is not too late for my subordinates to be happy to be able to serve the Lord."
I saw Ward still maintaining a respectful posture, and said again: "By the way, Lord, since most of the delicacies at last night's banquet were meat-based, in order to allow Lord to have a more balanced nutritional intake, so this morning The meals are slightly lighter, including crab roe custard, rainbow vegetable lean meat porridge, and buckwheat toast..."
After listening to the old butler's extremely professional list of dishes, Lei Xiao put down the black tea and white porcelain cup in his hand, nodded slightly and said: "I'm interested, tell Rudy to prepare another breakfast for 300 people, and everyone will follow me to welcome the new colleagues. Then let’s eat.”
"As you command! Lord."
The old housekeeper bowed to accept the order and immediately began to take action.
Straight out of the Lord's Mansion, Lei Xiao looked up.
I saw two suns, one big and one small, already hanging in the sky.
But the still slightly red morning glow in the sky and the crystal dewdrops stained on the grass undoubtedly indicate that the vibrant morning time has just begun.
After slowly taking a deep breath of the fresh air mixed with the fragrance of plants, Lei Xiao felt a hundred times more energetic and began to walk in the territory.
Lei Xiao noticed as he listened to the uniform chants of morning drills and the crisp clanking of armor from the soldiers around him.
The location of yesterday's banquet venue has been cleaned up, and the outdoor dining tables and chairs have been moved back into the canteen that was transformed from a half-elf dome-shaped longhouse.
"The number of elite squadrons in the territory has increased a lot. It seems that the number of canteens must also increase accordingly."
Lei Xiao looked at the five large stone longhouses standing neatly not far away and nodded thoughtfully.
Looking at everything in order around him, Lei Xiao couldn't help feeling a little emotional for a moment.
It is really a very fulfilling thing to be able to see the territory continue to grow due to your own efforts.
While sighing, Lei Xiao faced the rising sun and came to the guardian defense facility in the north of the territory.
In this large octagonal building covered with cold light lines, the cooldown time for creating a guardian has expired.
So I saw a flash of blue light, and a new guardian of the sky who looked like an angel appeared in front of Lei Xiao.
After waving his hand and putting the Sky Guardian into the space bracelet, Lei Xiao took away the magic light crystals filled with magic power and walked out of the Guardian defense mechanism.
Lei Xiao, who had just walked out of the dim environment, noticed while squinting his eyes slightly to adapt to the bright morning light outside.
The eighteen third-order peak-level ice knights standing not far away have all repaired themselves, and they are like eighteen crystal clear ice sculptures, shining brightly under the two suns.
"It's almost time, and it's time to welcome new people. I wonder what kind of elite soldiers will be recruited this time to further strengthen the territory?"
Feeling the anticipation, Lei Xiao gave the order to assemble for the new year by reciting words.
Not long after, when the thirteen squadrons in the territory and all the main subordinates lined up, Lei Xiao, who was standing at the front of the team, directly used 300 second-level recruitment orders.
Brilliant golden light gates emerged in front of everyone.
When the dazzling light gradually dissipated, 300 tall figures exuding impressive momentum came into Lei Xiao's eyes.
I saw these soldiers were tall and tall, wearing silver-white medium-sized plate armor and fully enclosed helmets, shining brightly under the sunlight. Judging from the posture, they were just like the two great swordsmen stationed in Kongqing Town. The squadron is about the same.
However, in the hands of these soldiers, they all held a metal spear of about 2.5 meters. The sharp spear tip was uniform and cold, making people feel awe-inspiring.
"Are they actually soldiers who use guns? Judging from the weapons in their hands, they are not the spearmen on the battlefield who hold 5 or 6-meter long guns and need the protection of other close combat soldiers. They are soldiers who are better at close combat."
Lei Xiao looked at the burly bodies and nodded thoughtfully.
"I remember that in the previous confrontation with the orcs, one of the opponent's main soldiers was this kind of melee spearman."
"Compared to the pikemen who rely entirely on formations, this kind of melee pikemen can exert extremely good combat effectiveness whether they are fighting in formation or in melee on the battlefield!"
"This kind of multi-functional use will undoubtedly play a big role in the territory located in the forest!"
While Lei Xiao was thinking this in his mind, he opened the summary interface of the new subordinates and started to check it quickly.
"The occupation is a gun warrior. As for the overall strength, it is similar to the seven squadrons yesterday. Most of them are around the second-level five-star, a small number are around the second-level seven-star, and the three strongest ones are at the second-level peak. Layers.”
Overjoyed, Lei Xiao opened the detailed interfaces of some new subordinates.
In terms of skills, these spear warriors all master some active skills such as "Armor-piercing Pierce", "Dragon Tail Sweep", "Double Stab", and "Counter-current Spur Lance".
The passive skills include "Lance Mastery", "Concentrated Formation", "Concentrated Charge", etc.
Just when Lei Xiao saw this.
The three gun warrior commanders who had just reacted to the call quickly took off their helmets and ran to Lei Xiao with shock on their faces.
The three of them knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "See you Lord, the brave and fearless spear warriors will never retreat. We are willing to use the war spears in our hands to cut through the thorns for the Lord, pierce the enemy's throat, and pierce the enemy." heart!”
At the same time, the crisp sound of armor clashing sounded in unison, and the other gun warriors also knelt on one knee and bowed their heads deeply to Lei Xiao.
"Welcome to your arrival. From now on, each of you will be an indispensable part of this territory."
Lei Xiao lowered his body and helped up the three commanders who were kneeling in front of him one after another, and said with a faint smile.
Through further understanding, Lei Xiao learned.
Among the three captains of the Lancer Squadron, the most prestigious one is called Aylin. He has a sword-like eyebrow and a tiger's eye. He is in his early 40s and is in his prime.
The multiple scars that vaguely appeared under the opponent's beard undoubtedly proved that he had participated in many thrilling battles.
"Captain Erin, you will be in charge of these three squadrons of gun warriors for the time being."
Lei Xiao nodded to the middle-aged spear warrior commander in front of him and solemnly ordered.
"I obey! Lord, please rest assured!"
Aylin knelt down on the ground again, put his right hand on his chest and said: "My subordinates and others will fight for the lord until the last moment of their lives!"
"Looking forward to your outstanding performance in the future."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and with a wave of his hand, 300 third-level long spears [Dragon Tooth Point Steel Spears] from the orc army, and 300 sets of third-level plate armor [Rock Plate Armor] appeared, and began Dress up new slaves.
After seeing so much priceless equipment, the three members of the Lancer Squadron couldn't restrain their joy and excitement, and their loyalty levels were also increased, successfully rising to 100 points.
After completing all of this, Lei Xiao had a light but extremely rich breakfast with his subordinates, and then, as usual, he gathered all the main subordinates and commanders' subordinates in the spacious and bright hall of the mansion. .
Lei Xiao, who was sitting on the metal throne on the high platform, narrowed his eyes slightly and began to look down.
On his left hand, in order, are Huzhang, Hongye, Yecang, Nanxing, Nanyue, Chaoyan, Xueya, Faxia, Baiwei, Aling, Abing and Xiaoya as the main subordinates.
On his right side were the old butler Ward, the chef Rudy, the dragoon captain Sean, and the commanders of sixteen elite squadrons.
They are the captain of the heavy guard squadron Rogge, the captain of the half-elf archer Bai Zhi, the captain of the werewolf warrior squadron Orson, the two heavy shield shooter squadron captains Lunuo and the Russ brothers, the peasant squadron captain Gang Song, and the two newly joined yesterday. Zhuqi, the captain of the magician squadron, five longbow captains including Finley and Rick, and Erin, the newly recruited gun warrior squadron captain.
"I have to say that my territory is really getting stronger and stronger."
Lei Xiao's eyes swept over the subordinates one by one. While feeling the powerful aura exuded by each person, he felt a little filled with emotion.
Compared with the original one person and one cabin, the territory has undoubtedly undergone earth-shaking changes, which also gives me greater confidence to cope with the violent storms that may come at any time.
While sighing in his heart, Lei Xiao regained his composure and said solemnly: "The first thing in today's meeting is to announce several important appointments." (End of Chapter)
