Chapter 481 Murderous intent emerges in the meeting hall
"Then it's all up to you."
Ariel nodded thoughtfully, and then confirmed to Lei Xiao: "Do you really want to keep the fifth-level powerhouse by my side?"
"It's absolutely true."
Lei Xiao looked at Ariel's delicate face, and there was a vague expression of emotion that he had never seen before. He raised his eyebrows and said: "What? Is your dear fifth prince, Her Royal Highness, worried about me?"< br>
"No, don't be sentimental."
Ariel waved her hands in confusion and quickly denied: "I'm just afraid that I'm missing a few strong helpers!"
After finishing speaking, Ariel murmured in a low voice: "After all, I feel more at ease with you by my side."
"Okay, let's get down to business. Just like what I just said, the other party will definitely separate the six of us in the name of reporting the battle situation and then defeat us one by one."
A hint of sternness appeared in Lei Xiao's dark eyes, and he said sternly to Ariel: "I am only a mercenary in name, so the other party won't care too much, so I have the task of extracting useful information from the other party. It’s up to you.”
"Don't worry, I know what to do."
Ariel nodded solemnly and said solemnly: "As a general of the Cold Flame Kingdom, he colluded with the Holy Night Army in an attempt to subvert this fortress. No matter who is behind the scenes, I will never let this person go! ”
Hearing Ariel say this, Bert and Orange Bai, who were standing beside them, clenched their fists with stern expressions on their faces.
It is conceivable that once the Holy Night Army cooperates inside and outside, it can break the mountain fortress at the minimum cost.
Then, other cities and villages behind the fortress will surely be devastated, and it will also seriously affect the Lord's control of the layout of the entire eastern region of Lengyan.
No matter what, we must completely eliminate this dangerous undercurrent hidden in the fortress!
"Very good, then it depends on the performance of the dear Fifth Princess."
Looking at the determined looks of the three of them, Lei Xiao put the tea set on the table back into the space bracelet and nodded to the knotweed.
Huzhang understood, and first bowed to accept the order, then put on his invisibility cloak and disappeared in front of everyone.
At the same time, the vast aura clinging to the walls of the living room also quietly dissipated, as if nothing had happened.
It didn't take long for the door of the living room to be opened again, and Ogu walked in with several Cold Flame Army commanders.
"Meet Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Augu still had the same smiling expression, caressing Ariel's chest and said: "The matter of reporting the military situation is ready. Please, Her Royal Highness the Princess and the two kingdom generals move to the discussion hall of the castle."
Having said this, Ogu glanced at the three Lei Xiao people not far away, and added: "As for these three mercenary friends, please wait for a while. After all, the next matter needs to involve me. The core secret of the Cold Flame Kingdom”
"Understandable."
When Lei Xiao saw that everything was as he expected, he shrugged indifferently and sat back down with Ye Cang and Chao Yan in their original seats.
"You can just lead the way."
Ariel nodded slightly, with the same calm expression.
With Lei Xiao's analysis and inference and Hu Zang, a fifth-level powerhouse, by her side, Leng Yan's fifth princess was already confident.
Of course, in the eyes of Augu and others, this proud princess has always had the same condescending look, nothing different.
However, what Aogu and others don't know is that Ariel was ignorant before, but now, it is fearless.
Before walking out of the door, Ariel looked back at Lei Xiao, who was sitting calmly, and then followed Augu and others out of the living room, surrounded by Bert and Ju Bai.
As the footsteps echoed in the spacious castle corridor, Ariel walked calmly and calmly, but her expression became a little confused again.
It is simply incomprehensible that that annoying guy from another world would deploy the strongest fighting force that can conquer the country by his side.
"However, since my father became seriously ill, this is the first time someone has cared so much about my safety..."
Thinking of this, Ariel quickly shook her head secretly, and murmured in her heart: "No, this guy must have another agenda, otherwise, he would never do such a thing!"
"But if that guy has other plans, what can he achieve?"
Ariel sighed softly and said lonely in her heart: "Although I don't want to admit it, I am just a poor princess with no power now. With that guy's great power, what can I do?" Something that caught his eye? ”
Ariel swallowed involuntarily when she remembered that Huzhang, Nanxing, Nanyue, Chaoyan, and Lei Xiao himself were all wearing the fifth-level divine weapons for the country.
At this point alone, this incredible lord from another world is simply unfathomable.
After all, even if we look at the entire Lengyan royal family, there are only two fifth-level magic weapons, the sword of the ancestor King of Heroes, and the lance of Peilan, the leader of the Earthly Dragon Knights who was in the same era as the ancestor!
"Since the end of the era of the ancestral hero king, no blacksmith master of the fifth level has been born in the Cold Flame Kingdom and the neighboring Holy Night Kingdom."
"No one has the ability to forge. This is the main reason why fifth-level magic weapons are scarce, in addition to the extremely rare raw materials and the limited forging efficiency."
"Looking back at history, even the Leng Yan ancestors of the past generations spent huge sums of money to acquire fifth-level magic weapons, but in the end they got nothing."
Thinking of this in her mind, Ariel shook her head helplessly.
It's no wonder, after all, the fifth-level magical weapon will greatly enhance the user's strength, which is almost impossible to measure in terms of money.
No country, including foreigners, is willing to sell this level of magical weapon to other potential opponents, because no one knows whether one day the opponent will swing the blade of the magical weapon towards them.
"Even my Lengyan royal family has had trouble getting hold of magical weapons for hundreds of years. How did that guy get so many of them? It's simply unbelievable."
Ariel, who was puzzled and filled with questions, cheered up and turned her attention back to Augu, who was leading the way.
"Don't think about that guy from another world now. The top priority is to find out who is behind the scenes and protect this mountain fortress... But that guy sent a fifth-level strongman to my place. Once danger arises, how will that guy survive? Paul?”
Just when Ariel was distracted, the group of people had already arrived at the door of a spacious and bright meeting hall.
"Your Highness, please come inside."
Augu bowed slightly to Ariel and said with a smile.
Walking straight into the meeting hall, Ariel blinked her long eyelashes and looked around.
The space here is extremely spacious, even divided into upper and lower floors, just like a small theater.
In a conspicuous position in the center of the hall, there is a huge sand table.
I saw detailed descriptions of the three-dimensional terrain and many miniature soldiers in red and blue colors, just like a huge chessboard.
Seeing this scene, Ariel nodded slightly.
Having received a complete royal education since she was a child, she is naturally no stranger to this kind of military sandbox. What is shown above is exactly the current distribution of enemies and enemies in the border area.
Looking at Ariel's thoughtful expression, Ogu was obviously not ready to report the battle situation immediately, but clapped his hands gently.
Immediately afterwards, surrounded by two teams of soldiers, a team of servants walked in carrying steaming meals and dining tables and chairs.
"Your Royal Highness, the two generals of the kingdom, you have worked hard all the way. It is already past noon, have you not eaten yet?"
After the servants' tables, chairs and food were arranged, Ogu stroked his chest and saluted, smiled slightly and said: "How about filling your stomach first and then doing business?"
"I didn't expect Vice Admiral Augu to be so thoughtful."
Ariel raised her eyebrows and sat down at the dining table without hesitation. She also smiled at Aogu and said, "I wonder if Vice Admiral Aogu has already eaten?"
"Go back to Your Highness Princess. Before your arrival, the villain has been supervising the defense in the fortress and has not bothered to eat."
Augu's face still maintained a tepid smile, and he responded immediately.
"Deputy General Ogu has so many things to do every day, it's really too hard."
As Ariel laid out the white napkin in front of her, she seemed to say inadvertently: "We are guests here, and you are the host. In that case, please invite Vice Admiral Aogu to dine with us."< br>
After hearing Ariel's words, Augu obviously had no intention of sitting at the table. Instead, he waved his hands and said: "The villain is just a martial artist. How can he dare to sit at the same table with Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
"One of my royal mottos, Leng Yan, is that the warriors who loyally protect Leng Yan, regardless of their title and origin, are qualified to sit at the same table as members of the royal family."
Ariel looked directly into Ogu's slightly cloudy eyes in front of her, and said calmly: "Is this the case for ordinary soldiers, let alone you, the deputy general of Ogu who currently commands three fortresses?"
Ariel's face was indifferent, and she added: "Therefore, there is no problem for Vice Admiral Aogu to sit here."
"Your Highness the Princess is serious, I still dare not sit at the same table with Her Highness the Princess."
Augu didn't move at all. He only looked flattered and still waved his hands to refuse: "These are what villains should do, and they are not worth mentioning."
"Vice General Augu, Her Royal Highness the Princess has invited you again and again, why do you keep declining?"
I saw Bert standing behind Ariel, and said in a deep voice: "Is it because you have a ghost in your heart that you can't bear the words "Guarding the Cold Flame", or is there something fishy about this meal? ”
At this point, Bert's old voice became a little deeper, and he continued to ask: "Or is it both?"
"General Axe, what are you talking about... This kind of joke is not fun."
Ogu smiled awkwardly, trying to confuse the audience.
However, when he noticed the sharp looks from Ariel, Bert and Orange, his laughter stopped abruptly.
I saw Ogu's smiling face, and instantly turned gloomy. He said in a cold voice: "It seems that you have noticed the clues. Then there is no need for me, the general, to act like a smiling tiger again."
< br>
At this point, Ogu, who had a sinister face and a completely different expression than before, calmly walked to the dining table and casually knocked over a plate of exquisite pastries.
Along with the crisp sound of a broken plate, the pieces scattered, and a thick black mist emerged from the delicate pastries scattered on the ground.
"Originally, I planned to let you be captured comfortably... Since you want to resist, no wonder this general is ruthless!"
After he finished speaking, a two-handed sword with flashing cold light suddenly appeared from Ogu's big hand.
Behind him, the three commanders of the Leng Yan Army, whose strength was at the peak of the third level, also pulled out the long swords at their waists, sneered and made ready attacks.
At the same time, with a "boom" sound, the door of the meeting hall suddenly closed, and a large amount of the strong aura that had been hidden in the hidden barrier began to be revealed without reservation.
In the blink of an eye, the second floor of the meeting hall was filled with black-clothed crossbowmen exuding impressive aura. Sharp arrows flashed and were aimed condescendingly at Ariel and the three of them.
Judging from the aura, the strength of these men in black is obviously above the level of second-level senior experts, and their number is enough to make up two squadrons.
The cold light emitted from each arrow was particularly conspicuous under the light, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became extremely tense.
As a fourth-level powerhouse, Ogu himself, three third-level peak powerhouses, and each team upstairs are enough to compete with a second-level elite squadron of a fourth-level senior powerhouse.
This kind of strength has far exceeded the three of Ariel on the surface.
"Did you really expose yourself? Ogu, you are such a liar!"
Ariel's expression was stern, and while she, Burt, and Ju Bai took out their respective weapons, they asked: "What do you want to do?"
"These soldiers in black are all elite spies from the Kingdom of Holy Night. Each of them possesses ruthless assassination skills, and this general did not completely tell lies."
Holding a giant sword, Augu Sensen smiled and said leisurely: "As for what this general wants to do, the answer is very obvious."
After finishing speaking, Ao Gu raised the giant sword in his hand and said solemnly: "Of course it is to capture you, the fifth princess of Leng Yan, and then hand it over to Sheng Ye's side."
"Of course, if you insist on resisting life and death, sending your bodies over will be considered a great achievement."
Augu smiled coldly at Ariel and continued: "Originally, my general's purpose was to assist the Holy Night Army in capturing these three fortresses, but I didn't expect you to actually come here yourself!"
"Although I don't want to admit it, it's exactly what that guy inferred."
Thinking of this in her mind, Ariel clenched the staff in her hand and said solemnly: "So, you are the mastermind behind the Holy Night?"
"I didn't expect that the unruly and willful fifth princess would be smarter than the most beautiful vase in the Cold Flame Kingdom as described in the rumors."
Augu looked determined to win, and did not hide it. He admitted cleanly: "Yes, that's exactly it!"
"How is General Bai doing now?"
Ariel didn't hesitate and asked again with her eyebrows narrowed. (End of chapter)
