Chapter 681 The Prelude to the Territory Attack and Defense Battle
Under the moonlit night, Lei Xiao answered the call and started talking, and the crisp voice of Nan Xing's voice came out: "Lord Qi, the temporary camp where the White Knights are located has sounded the rallying horn, and they are ready to start action!"
"Copy that, have you finally taken action?"
Lei Xiao had a stern look on his face and nodded.
After he stopped talking, Lei Xiao turned his head and said solemnly to Ariel beside him: "It seems that the prelude before the storm has begun to sound, and the Nightmare Knight must also take action."< br>
"What the Lord said is true. Now that the overture's wind has blown, the real heavy rain is no longer far away."
Ariel nodded solemnly and responded.
Sure enough, Ariel's words had just finished.
Nan Yue's shy and solemn report rang in Lei Xiao's ears again: "Your Majesty, the Nightmare Knight temporary camp five kilometers away from Kongqing Town, there are fully armed soldiers We have already begun to line up to leave the camp!”
"Thank you for your hard work, let's explore again."
After he stopped talking, Lei Xiao's calm tone revealed three parts of expectation and seven parts of murderous intent.
"This severe test of life and death has finally begun. I hope that what I finally receive will be an impassioned victory song instead of a quiet and soothing requiem."
After that, Lei Xiao learned more through successive reports from the Nanxing Nanyue sisters, as well as the half-elves and werewolf warriors scattered around the edge of the forest.
The new aristocratic force led by the Nightmare Knight and the traditional aristocratic force led by the White Knight have very clear goals this time, and they both deliberately avoid the other party's marching route.
The three infantry regiments under the Nightmare Knight have already deployed in three directions: north, south and west of Kongqing Town, forming a semi-encirclement of Kongqing Town. The remaining cavalry regiments are It's on guard duty on the periphery.
As for the east side of Kongqing Town, it is in the direction close to the Shadow Forest. There are three infantry regiments of the White Knights there, preparing to go deep into the Shadow Forest.
As for the remaining cavalry legion, they were also deployed behind the infantry legion to prevent the Nightmare Knight from playing any tricks.
"Lord, everything is exactly as you expected."
Beside Lei Xiao, Ariel, who also heard all this, could not help but lower her eyebrows and sighed: "If it were a year ago, I am afraid that my subordinates would never have thought that Leng Yan's fifth princess One day, I will confront these nobles who have made great contributions to the kingdom.”
"It was not them who made great contributions, but their ancestors. The long period of time with powerful power was enough to make these successors abandon the glory and faith of their ancestors."
Lei Xiao's eyes were as bright as fire, and he responded lightly: "And what you and I need to do is to break all this pedantry and rebuild a new order. Although this is a difficult and tortuous road, the King of Heroes has walked through it with blood. You and I Nature can also pass by and do better.”
"Following the footsteps of our ancestors and opening up a new path?"
Looking at Lei Xiao's calm face, Ariel said excitedly: "The Lord's words always make people's blood boil."
"Not only that, my goal is the stars and the sea, and it is about the many unsolved mysteries of this world itself. Whether it is the strange blank era or the reason why our billions of lords came, everything will be solved."
Lei Xiao's eyes began to become more determined, and he said slowly: "All the truths and truths about this world will eventually be presented to me and all of you one by one."
"I look forward to solving every unsolved mystery in this world with the Lord!"
Ariel nodded excitedly at first, and then she couldn't help but have a hint of doubt, and said: "Speaking of which, Lord, neither the White Knight nor the Nightmare Knight took the initiative to provoke each other this time. It was almost like a discussion. Okay.”
"It's very simple. Both sides are not in conflict with each other as they appear on the surface, but they each have their own agenda."
Lei Xiao was still pacing slowly in the territory, raising his eyebrows and responded: "As I said before, the Nightmare Knight plans to use the power of thunder to occupy Kongqing Town first, and then wait for work, and then give the territory and The White Knight's fatal blow."
"And the White Knight's idea is probably similar. He is planning to use the power of thunder to quickly level the territory. Then, before the Nightmare Knight has captured Kongqing Town, he will march westward and stab the opponent from behind."< br>
Having said this, Lei Xiao shrugged and added: "All in all, the primary goals of both parties now fall on us."
"So that's it."
Ariel followed closely beside Lei Xiao and suddenly said: "So, are these two planning to deal with us first and then deal with each other?"
"Yes, the territory is obviously underestimated by both of them."
Lei Xiao's tone became more murderous, and he smiled lightly and said: "Then let all opponents take a good look at how rock-solid the territories and Kongqing Town they think are the weakest and easiest to conquer are. ”
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao raised his head and looked at the two bright moons above his head with bright eyes.
Above the dark night, the bright moon was as bright as jade, and there was a faint trace of blood red rippling, as if a bloody storm would erupt in the next second.
……
The outside of the Demonic Shadow Forest was densely packed with a large phalanx of neatly lined up soldiers.
Under the reflection of many magic light balls, every soldier's face was filled with murderous intent, and the sharp blades in his hands that had already been unsheathed shone with an icy cold light.
These are a traditional aristocratic infantry regiment under the command of the White Knight.
After confirming that the Nightmare Knights had surrounded Kongqing Town on three sides, the White Knights dispersed their three infantry legions and did not enter the Shadow Forest at the same time. Instead, they adopted a conservative marching method of entering one by one.
In this way, it can not only prevent the sudden attack of the Nightmare Knight, but also disperse the personnel to avoid possible traps or ambushes due to being too dense.
And this infantry regiment is the one at the back of the three regiments.
The bright magic light ball was swaying, and at the core of the legion, a plump middle-aged nobleman was pacing back and forth, surrounded by heavy armored guards.
His fat, fleshy face was full of anxiety and impatient.
This man is the current lord of Songluo City and the commander of this infantry regiment, Count Luoto.
After the mysterious disappearance of Marquis Loki, his brother Lotto successfully came to power after a bloody storm and gained the recognition of the eldest prince.
Compared with the previous city lord, Marquis Rocky, this man's cruel methods were no less brutal. When he was the chief judge of Songlua City Tribunal, the most people he sent to the gallows were the free farmers who tried to escape the sea of misery.
However, due to the short time he took office and the whereabouts of Luo Ji is unknown, he did not inherit the title of marquis. He only ascended to the high position of the lord of the large city Songluo City as the earl of the kingdom.
However, due to the disappearance of Marquis Luoji and his two deputies, coupled with the previous fierce power struggle, Songluo City's vitality was severely damaged, and its overall strength was already far worse than before, and even inferior to other surrounding medium-sized cities.
"I didn't expect that my majestic Songluo City would actually end up in the rear position!"
Luotuo's fat, greasy face was full of indignation, and he spat: "Isn't this a wasted opportunity to show his face to His Highness the Great Prince?"
"What Lord Luo Tuo said is absolutely true. A man as heroic and extraordinary as you should be the first person to lead an army to seize the head of the Lord of Nakong Qing City."
Another round body quickly came up and said flatteringly.
Under the reflection of the magic light ball, the man's playful and smiling face gradually became clear. It was none other than Vince's chief henchman Clooney.
Since the infantry legion commanded by Roto was the weakest of the three legions, the White Knight sent Clooney, a third-level magician, to Roto's side in order to supplement his combat power.
"Clooney, you are doing this to the Lord of this city."
Luotuo, who had a big belly, cast a contemptuous look at his lackadaisical confidant and said lightly: "Isn't Vince just photographed away by this guy like you?"
"Sir Lotto, what are you talking about?"
Clooney's cunning face was full of reverence and he said: "Who can flatter you in front of you? I'm just impressed by your heroic spirit, that's all."
For a professional loser like Clooney, without the big tree of Vince, all he has to do is naturally hug another big tree.
Only in this way can he continue to exert power in the new owner's fiefdom and bully the free farmers in the fiefdom unscrupulously.
"That's true."
Luo Tuo persisted for a while, but a look of help appeared on his fat face, and he said lightly: "Compared with this city lord and Vince, who is better?"
"Master Lotto, isn't this an obvious thing?"
Clooney still said with a smile on his face: "Navin Vince is just a martial artist, how can he compare with you, a magic master who knows the ancient and modern times? No, the title of sage is more suitable for you!"
"These words have reached the heart of this city lord!"
When Luo Tuo heard the sound, he burst into laughter.
After laughing for a long time, a sad look came over Luo Tuo's fat face again.
He shook his head helplessly and said: "Unfortunately, I'm afraid I won't be able to make a contribution in front of the eldest prince this time. When the White Knight held a meeting just now, the other two commanders of the main attacking corps, the villain's triumphant look, was simply shocking. People are sick.”
"Master Luotuo, there is no need to worry. In my opinion, the two legions in front are just making wedding clothes for you."
I saw the sly smile on Clooney's face getting stronger, and he said: "From the previous situation, it is not difficult to see that although the Lord of Kongqing City is an alien lord who has just arrived, he is quite scheming and must be around the territory. A lot of traps were set.”
"Cluney, what do you mean, let the two legions explore the road first, and when they are stuck in the quagmire, we will invade the territory in one fell swoop?"
The cloudy eyes on Luo Tuo's fat face rolled around and he suddenly enlightened.
"Haha, Lord Lotto, that's exactly what it is."
Clooney's smile showed a touch of disdain and contempt again, and he responded: "Although the Lord Kong Qing has many tricks, in the final analysis, he is just an alien lord who has just arrived."
< br>
"In such a limited period of time, can the territory of an ant-like alien lord be built into an impregnable fortress? At best, it is just a ridiculous village size. I am afraid it doesn't even have a decent city wall, right?"
At this point, Clooney's words became a little more flattering, and he continued: "And for the heroic Lord Lotto, wouldn't it be easy to invade such a territory?"
"That's natural!"
A murderous intention suddenly appeared on Luo Tuo's face, and he said coldly: "As a lowly alien lord, the Lord of Kongqing City actually occupied a corner of my Leng Yan Kingdom. It is simply a disgrace to my Leng Yan nobles. What an insult! This time, the city lord will raze his territory to the ground! ”
"Hehe, Master Luotuo is indeed extraordinary. When you kill the Lord of Kongqing City with your own hands, you will naturally be the popular person next to the eldest prince. Then, don't forget the villain."
Clooney saw the opportunity and added, nodding and bowing.
Just when the two were chatting happily.
Along with the neighing of horses, a messenger wearing silver armor appeared in front of the two of them.
Then he dismounted and said respectfully: "Lord Commander of the Roto Army, the forward army has arrived near the Shadow River in the forest and is crossing the river. The White Knight orders you to start marching into the forest immediately for backup!"
"I know, please report back to Lord White Knight, and this city lord will take action now."
Luo Tuo nodded, and then he couldn't wait to say to the several middle-level commanders on standby: "Go ahead and let the whole army march!"
"I obey! Legion Commander!"
Several commanders who had already been gearing up bowed to accept the order and immediately began to take action.
"Hey, Lord Luotuo, it's finally our chance to show off. The despicable Lord Kongqing City's head is already waving to us."
Looking at Rotona's determination to win, Clooney nodded and bowed, and added another sentence at the right time.
However, just when Luotuo had organized his troops and followed the path opened by the two legions in front, he had just entered the forest not long ago.
A series of sudden and inexplicable sounds of water flow reached the ears of Luo Tuo and Clooney.
Before the two of them could react, the sound came from far to near, and soon developed into the sound of huge waves, which even made the earth faintly shake.
It felt like a huge wave suddenly falling from the sky. Although the water splash had not yet been seen, the shocking momentum was enough to make people tremble.
Just when the two people, who looked confused, looked at each other.
From the position of the two legions in front, in addition to the sound of powerful water flow, there were already continuous sounds of panic and screams. (End of chapter)
