Chapter 483 Battle of the Chamber
"Your Excellency, since you are mercenaries, no matter how much the Lengyan Princess pays to hire you, I, Shengye, will pay double the price! Moreover, I will no longer pursue any of your previous actions!"
Augu gave Lei Xiao what he thought was a sincere smile, and tentatively said: "800,000 golden dragons... no, 1 million golden dragons, what do you think?"
At this point, Ogu put on a sworn expression and continued: "As long as you promise not to interfere in this matter, you can honor it immediately when the mountain fortress falls tomorrow morning!"
After finishing speaking, Augu's gloomy face was full of pride, with a look of determination to win.
You know, 1 million golden dragons is a huge amount of money that the untouchables cannot earn in a hundred lifetimes!
Even for an upper-middle-class noble, it was enough to impress him, let alone three mercenaries that even a poor princess could afford to hire.
When Ariel heard the sound, her fair face began to look a little ugly.
For her who had always had no worries about food and drink before, apart from the many trump cards she had, she had not been able to save many golden dragons, only more than 100,000 at best.
And 1 million golden dragons is indeed not a small number.
The most critical thing is that for the guy whose true identity is the lord of another world.
Money is only one aspect. If she, the down-and-out Leng Yan Princess, can be handed over to the Kingdom of Holy Night, it will naturally be equivalent to making friends with the senior leaders of Holy Night who hold the core power. This is undoubtedly the biggest temptation.
Although the guy was very tough on his words, it was obviously not a wise choice to choose to offend a powerful kingdom for a down-and-out princess like her who could not even protect herself.
"That annoying guy won't really hand me over, right?"
Sorting out the stakes in her mind, Ariel's throat rolled on her white neck, and she looked at Lei Xiao with an uneasy expression.
The eyes of everyone present were also focused on Lei Xiao.
As the only focus of the audience, Lei Xiao heard Augu's tempting words and felt Ariel's faint uneasiness, and shook his head helplessly.
For Ariel, who does not fully understand her own strength, this worried look is indeed understandable.
After all, in Ariel's view, even though she has the loyalty of a fifth-level powerhouse, her territory is nothing more than a small Kongqing Town.
Compared with a huge kingdom, this is naturally an insignificant existence.
"Now, not only do I have Kongqing Town, Mailan Town, Cishi Town, Red Arrow Town, Shuiyue City, Fenglong City, and the seven cities of Shanjing Principality under my command, but I also have plans to control the eastern region of Lengyan. , is also proceeding in an orderly manner.”
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and thought to himself: "From this, the ridiculous conditions offered by the other party are naturally not worth mentioning. Furthermore, Ariel is far more than a poor princess to me. Simple.”
In addition, Lei Xiao understands clearly.
Facing the unknown Holy Night Kingdom, there is no need for him to contact it at this stage.
After all, just the Lengyan royal family on the surface and the mysterious organization behind the scenes are enough to keep him busy.
As for those high-ranking and powerful people in Holy Night, when the time is right, I will tell them everything with an iron fist instead of using my knees to please them now.
By then, these natives will deeply realize how stupid it is to despise and wantonly eliminate the alien lords.
All in all, as long as you can ensure that the three fortresses of the Leng Yan Army are not captured by the Holy Night Army.
In this way, the pressure of the border battlefield will always be on the Leng Yan royal family, or the three princes, thus gaining more time for their own development.
"As for whether I will attract the attention of Shengye's senior management, there is no need to worry."
Lei Xiao smiled solemnly and already had a plan in mind: "As long as all the opponents here are dealt with, the news will naturally not spread."
Before arriving here, Lei Xiao had already ordered Lin, Bai Wei, A Ling and A Bing who had been waiting outside the fortress to sneak in secretly and guard the various exits of the castle.
Even if there were fish that slipped through the net, they would never escape the second blockade laid by Lei Xiao.
Taking ten thousand steps back, Lei Xiao clearly understood.
Even the senior leaders of the Holy Night Kingdom finally learned that Ariel, the fifth princess of Leng Yan, had foiled their conspiracy.
And after some investigation, he successfully deduced that all this might be related to himself, the apparent Lord of Kongqing City, and then cast his gaze over.
But by that time, his own power was no longer what it used to be.
Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao looked at Ariel's doubtful eyes and Augu, who was determined to win with a gloomy face, and said with a faint smile: "One million golden dragons is indeed a very attractive number..." < br>
Lei Xiao deliberately lengthened his tone and took a big breath to observe the two of them.
Unsurprisingly, Ariel's expression became more and more nervous, while Augu became more and more proud.
Lei Xiao continued to smile and said: "Unfortunately, I have never had any idea about golden dragons, so 1 million golden dragons are worthless in my opinion."
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao looked at Ariel who was instantly surprised and Aogu who looked extremely ugly and might have an attack at any time. Without any hesitation, he immediately waved his hands to the subordinates beside him and said lightly: "Okay Come on, let’s end this farce.”
"Kill me..."
Just when Ogu knew that the situation was not good, his gloomy face suddenly showed murderous intent, and he had just issued an order to kill the fish and kill the net.
Accompanied by bursts of unexpected frightened screams, Huzhang and Hongye, who had been lurking on the second floor for a long time, took the initiative and launched attacks from both directions at the same time.
For a moment, swords, swords, shadows and bright red splashes alternately, and the entire scene instantly changed from extremely still to extremely dynamic.
Since the space on the second floor was relatively narrow, and the Holy Night Army soldiers from two elite spy squadrons stood very densely, all attention was focused on Lei Xiao and Ariel below.
Therefore, caught off guard, under the open and closed two-handed swords of the tiger stick and Hong Ye's extremely sharp claw attack, a large number of soldiers were like headless flies, either bumping into each other, or rushing from behind. It fell from a high place, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
However, after all, these second-level elite spies of the Holy Night Army were extremely well-trained. In just a moment, they regained their footing and began to raise their crossbows with arrows on the strings with murderous intent on their faces. The trigger was pulled.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Densely packed sharp arrows, mixed with the biting wind filled with the smell of blood, suddenly shot towards the knotweed and Hongye respectively!
However, when the whizzing sharp arrows were about to approach the two bodies, a set of khaki and a set of dark red translucent armor appeared out of thin air.
Faintly, there was a crisp sound of metal collision, and these arrows were easily blocked.
Since all this happened in the midst of lightning and flint, by the time Augu reacted, his face was already ashen, and his turbid eyes filled with bloodshot eyes were about to burst. He said in disbelief: "This is the fifth level that is enough to conquer the country." Only the strong can condense energy barriers!”
"Besides that burly man, there is actually a fifth-level powerhouse?!"
Looking up at Hong Ye, who was exuding a terrifying aura, Ariel's fair cheeks could not suppress a look of shock and excitement.
While her heart was excited, she saw Ariel's crystal eyes moving downwards, and finally landed on Lei Xiao, who was standing calmly beside her, instantly setting off huge waves in her heart.
She never thought that this guy who had only been here for a while would actually have two national-level fifth-level powerhouses under his command!
You know, in terms of top combat power alone, this is already on par with the Lengyan royal family where she belongs!
"No wonder this guy would place that burly man beside me. It turns out that there is another female fifth-level strongman beside him!"
While her heart was turning upside down, Ariel's long eyelashes flickered, and her starry eyes were full of shock.
While looking at Lei Xiao's gentle profile, she sighed secretly in her heart: "I remember the last time I was in the sleeping place of my ancestors, only this guy was teleported in. I have to say, this guy is so shocking." Unexpected people can always bring surprise and disbelief..."
On the second floor of the conference hall, the crushing battle continued.
Facing the concentrated fire of the second-level elite squadron, it is natural for an ordinary fourth-level strong man to avoid it.
But for Huzhang and Hongye, who are fifth-level powerhouses, it is insignificant.
Not long after, following extremely fierce and deadly trajectories passing by, swept by giant sword blades and sharp claws like a storm, the two squadrons of elite secret agents who had no escape and no escape were quickly killed or injured. Almost exhausted.
Among the scattered corpses, broken crossbows and curled-edged daggers were scattered on the ground.
These elite Holy Night spies who usually act as assassins and reapers never expected that they would be defeated so neatly today, just like the targets they had killed before.
"If you aim your arrow at an opponent you shouldn't provoke, this is what will happen."
Noticing that the battle on the second floor of the hall had come to an end, Lei Xiao's eyes moved and finally landed on Ogu and the three rebel commanders not far away.
Looking at the four people who were almost trembling in front of him, Lei Xiao said calmly to Ye Cang and Chao Yan beside him: "Go, there is no need to hold anything back except for the mastermind behind the scenes."
"Yes! My lord!"
The two men, who were already ready to go, held their chests and accepted the order. One jumped into the air, and the other clenched his fists and walked straight over.
At Ariel's signal, Burt and Ju Bai, who had hidden their subordinate identities, also followed with gloomy expressions.
"A bunch of bastards! Even if I die, I will take one with me!"
The furious Augu flashed the giant sword in his hand, and he also led three third-level peak experts to rush over with murderous intent.
For a moment, fireballs and sword energy intertwined, and the crisp and sharp collision of weapons continued, and the two sides fought fiercely together.
Although the number of people on both sides is the same, Lei Xiao's side is composed of all fourth-level experts, and it is obvious that they have an overwhelming advantage.
Under the thunderous offensive of the subordinates, in the blink of an eye, only Ogu was left in the entire meeting hall, while the subordinates were naturally unscathed.
Finally, with the addition of Japanese knotweed, Ogu was soon completely subdued on the spot.
"Ye Cang, go and see if there is any other information on that guy that has not been unearthed."
Seeing that everything had settled, Lei Xiao nodded to the burly priest.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that there was no need to talk too much about such a cruel guy.
If he hadn't appeared, Ariel and the other three would have been killed on the spot by this guy.
"As you command, my lord."
Ye Cang bowed gracefully, and a long-awaited look suddenly appeared on his angular face.
I saw a slightly weird smile hanging on the corner of Ye Cang's mouth, pushing up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and slowly walked towards Ogu, who was already restrained on the ground.
"What do you want to do?"
Looking at Ye Cang who was getting closer and closer, Augu, who was unable to move, suddenly felt a bone-chilling chill and struggled subconsciously.
"Don't worry, it will be over soon."
When he got closer, Ye Cang's gold-rimmed glasses immediately reflected a dark light like an abyss.
Augu was struggling crazily. His body suddenly stiffened and his movements stopped abruptly. His frightened and muddy eyes quickly turned from panic to apathetic, just like a walking corpse.
In the end, his slowly dilated pupils only reflected the metal skull necklace Ye Cang wore on his chest, which was still shining with a strange light.
Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.
Through the last secret agent infiltration incident in Kongqing Town, he discovered Ye Cang, who was good at spiritual attacks and had a unique interrogation talent, and he kept it in mind.
However, since Ogu's strength is not much lower than Ye Cang's, his resistance to mental attacks will naturally increase accordingly.
So for the sake of safety, I chose the previous strategy, first controlling the opponent, and then mentally attacking.
Ariel, who also saw this scene, quickly reacted and looked eagerly at Ye Cang, who was peering into the depths of Ogu's mind.
Ariel clearly understands this in her heart, and can tell from Augu’s previous description.
Before dawn tomorrow morning, the Holy Night Army will launch a massive battle and cooperate with the inside and outside to capture this mountain fortress. In addition, the whereabouts of Bai Lao, who is currently the commander-in-chief of the fortress, is unknown.
When time is already extremely tight, it is undoubtedly an urgent matter to quickly obtain more useful details from the other party.
Otherwise, once this mountain fortress falls and the Holy Night Army marches in, more Lengyan people will be ravaged and tortured by the flames of war!
Just when Ariel was anxious.
Ye Cang slowly opened his closed eyes, turned to Lei Xiao, bowed and said, "Master Qi, everything is under control." (End of Chapter)
