Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.
The turbid water drops on the dirty wall fell on a fair and delicate face. The coolness that came from her made her slowly open her eyes. A pair of unique pale golden vertical pupils were filled with confusion at first, and then very quickly. He quickly turned cautious and nervous, and began to brace himself and look around.
She was none other than Dana.
Although she has lost almost all dragon characteristics, making Dana look the same as a human, in the dark, she will still show the dragon's excellent night vision pupils to better observe the surrounding situation.
The dim candlelight not far away was swaying, reflecting the outline of rows of metal fences. Dana's heart quickly sank to the bottom, and a chill filled her whole body.
Because she found that she was imprisoned alone in a dark and ancient dungeon, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood and putrefaction, which was almost nauseating.
After roughly understanding her situation, the young queen did not show panic. Instead, she tried her best to calm down and began to recall the last scene she still remembered in her mind.
It was the early morning when the leaves were covered with dew, and even the warblers were huddled in their nests and had not yet woken up. He and Davis had finished inspecting the last spy base and were on their way back to the forest edge fortress.
But not long after he flew out, he felt like the world was spinning, and the flow of energy in his body came to a complete standstill, and then he fainted.
"Did I encounter an ambush from a magic trap? I was so careless."
Dana rubbed her still groggy head and quickly figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
"By the way, where is Brother Wang? Where are the other soldiers of the Guards?"
A trace of anxiety appeared on her fair face, and she began to look around again.
On the other side of the dim candlelight, a humanoid silhouette appeared crookedly.
The other party was chained to the dungeon wall, motionless at all.
"Nette? How are you?"
Dana's vertical pupils widened, and she quickly recognized the human silhouette as one of the outstanding strong men under her command, a brave and loyal guard captain.
But no matter how Dana's urgent voice sounded in the dungeon, there was still no movement in the humanoid silhouette. Even the wing membrane behind it drooped to the ground, apparently torn completely.
"Haha, so that guy's name is Nite? He's really a tough guy. I just wanted to ask for some information about the alien lord, but I didn't reveal a single word."
A sudden loud sound sounded from the side of Dana's cage. The latter's expression suddenly became stern, and he subconsciously turned his head. A strange and burly figure filled with a violent aura came into view.
Dana could completely confirm that no one was there just now.
"Who are you?"
Dana's starry eyes were fixed on the other person. Just as she was about to stand up, she felt her feet sink and she collapsed to the ground again.
It was only then that Dana discovered that her ankles were wrapped with heavy chains engraved with strange runes, and the energy in her body was inexplicably exhausted, unable to mobilize even a single cent.
"That is an energy loss prison chain. It is made of extremely rare high-grade meteorite, and is supplemented by special taboo runes. It is said to be created by a group of fallen dwarves specifically to control the hostile elves, the powerful and first-class forces. The effect of the products is obvious.”
There was an emotionless joking sound, and a strange burly figure looked down at Dana and sneered: "How is it? Her Majesty, who has just recovered from a serious illness, didn't expect that she would be in jail, right? It feels like being reborn and falling into the abyss again. How? ”
"Stop talking to yourself. Your words will not have any effect, and I will never say anything about His Majesty the Human Race."
Dana had no fear on her face and stared straight into the darkness covered by the dark gray hood. Although she couldn't see the other person's face that was deliberately hidden, Dana could clearly feel that a pair of eerie eyes were staring closely at her. Hold yourself.
"You who have dragon bloodline are indeed very capable of resisting mental attacks, and it is difficult to pry your mouth open even with small physical means."
The burly figure full of anger glanced at the riddled body hanging on the wall, then looked at Dana again, and said with a sinister smile: "What about your brother Wang?"
"You bastard, what did you do to Brother Wang?"
Dana gritted her teeth and asked.
"Want to know the specific situation?"
The voice of the burly figure became sinister again, and he said slyly: "If you tell me some information about the alien lord, maybe I will meet your request."
"Don't even think about it! Is His Majesty the Human Race an existence that a lowly person like you can get his hands on?"
Dana did not hesitate at all and snorted coldly: "I have the glorious royal blood flowing in my body, how can I succumb to a shady guy like you? Brother Wang will never bow to you!"
< br>
"It seems that both Prince Zhanyi and you are inseparable. You only have a trace of blood. Do you really think that you are one of those arrogant dragons?"
The voice of the burly figure was obviously much colder, and he said disdainfully: "Well, according to the information I have, you are just pawns in the hands of the alien lord, and it is impossible to grasp any core information."
"Don't try to sow discord between us and His Majesty the Human Race. The majesty of that Lord is beyond your imagination!"
Dana's voice was neither humble nor arrogant, and she snorted coldly: "Your conspiracy will never succeed!"
"Haha, that alien lord is indeed curious."
I saw the palm of the burly figure also covered in the sleeve robe gently raised, and a sixth-level long sword exuding rich splendor emerged, making the entire dark dungeon shine instantly.
"This kind of magical weapon is the plaything of those first-rate forces. How can it be a treasure that a third-rate force like you can get?"
There was a hint of playfulness in the voice of the burly figure, and he said coldly: "In addition, there are actually sixth-level armors and several other sixth-level equipment, and there are even many sixth-level magic potions and magic scrolls. When did he become so wealthy? The alien lord must be behind this, right? The truth behind this is really curious.”
"But don't worry. Once I defeat the alien lord and cut off his wings, everything will come to light."
After saying that, the hostility around the burly figure became more intense, and he began to laugh unbridled.
"As I said just now, your conspiracy will never succeed!"
Looking at the opponent holding the precious long sword given to her by Lei Xiao and being so unscrupulous, Dana began to tremble all over, but she still gritted her teeth and said firmly: "Even if I die, I will never let you threaten me." To your human majesty!”
"You stupid thing, you haven't reacted yet? From the moment you are trapped here, the alien lord is already in disaster."
The laughter of the burly figure became more and more arrogant, and he said with a sinister smile: "According to the clues I deliberately left, I guess the alien lord will soon invade the border for the sake of this group of trash like you, right? By then, there will be something good The play is on.”
"Are you a member of the Deserted Sand Alliance? Want to provoke a dispute between us and the Rainforest Fortress Alliance so that you can benefit from it?!"
Dana was stunned for a moment, but then she immediately reacted and blurted out: "No, it is not impossible that the Rainforest Fortress Alliance deliberately left clues of its own to confuse the public. Are you a member of the Rainforest Fortress Alliance or a member of the Deserted Sand Alliance? ?”
"You don't need to worry about a waste like you. It won't be long before you can meet the alien lord here. Before that, it doesn't matter if I spare your life."
The burly figure glanced at Dana with disdain, then swayed and disappeared into the dark and damp dungeon.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty the Human Race, it's me who has dragged everyone down."
Dana sat on the ground with a sad face. After looking at her personal guard captain again, she finally couldn't help but sob softly.
……
At the same time, in the King's Hall of the Lion's Castle, they heard that Lei Xiao had summoned the talkers of the Rainforest Fortress Alliance and the Deserted Sand Alliance at the same time. The eager people couldn't help but pricked up their ears with curiosity.
"It is true that we have no intersection with the other party, and the other party's sudden increase in troops has already created hostility towards us. What's more, the two are incompatible. Under such circumstances, this is indeed an extremely difficult thing."
Lei Xiao casually placed the baton next to the sand table and said loudly: "However, there is a way to do this easily, and that is to have another force come forward to call it, and the other party will never refuse."
"Another force?"
Hanershu nodded thoughtfully and said, "Is it the second-rate force on the other side of these two alliance forces? With their obviously stronger appeal, it is indeed possible to do this."
"But despite the relative calm in recent decades, the two alliance forces are also not friendly with the neighboring second-rate forces."
Fanny tilted her head and echoed: "Furthermore, it is difficult to even contact us on the opposite side, let alone those more distant second-rate forces."
Hearing the sound, the other strong men on our side also nodded, obviously not understanding the meaning of Lei Xiao's words just now.
So far, there are a total of two non-third-rate forces that we have good relations with. One is the red dragon, and the other is the light half-elf. However, there is no news about the former yet, and the latter is following the light elves to confront the dark elves. Judging from the current situation, assistance from both is not yet available.
"You are right. We have just entered the depths of the outer world and we do still lack friends. However, there is an old friend with a transcendent status that you have not considered. That is where my confidence lies."
Lei Xiao smiled slightly and reminded again.
"Lord, do you mean the cinephile market?"
This time, Ariel reacted quickly and blurted out.
After hearing Ariel's words, everyone suddenly became enlightened.
Whether it was in the Mutated Storm, the Battle of the Dragon's Lair, or on many battlefields, the Cinematic Market has fully assisted us, but its managers are extremely mysterious and have almost never participated in meetings. Didn't think of it.
In short, although I don’t know what kind of agreement the human majesty reached with the administrator to be able to drive such a transcendent existence, what is certain is that the other party is obviously on our side!
"I see, if it's a cinephile market, it's really not difficult to do this!"
Broy's eyes lit up and he echoed: "After all, the Movie Market has always been an absolutely fair and just existence. Needless to say, it has a good reputation and it is difficult to arouse the other party's suspicion!"
"That's right, let's start taking action immediately."
Since all the powerful people present were his own, Lei Xiao had no scruples and directly contacted the manager.
Not long after, the manager's voice reached everyone's ears through the contact stone of Ice Stone City, and then through the loudspeaker: "Your Majesty, human race, if you have anything to do, just ask me."
Before that, since Lei Xiao took the time to inform the managers of our current progress, the managers naturally had more trust in Lei Xiao. After all, as Lei Xiao's power became stronger, the managers had more hope of improving their rankings. Larger and closer to the front.
One of the important indicators for improving rankings is how much response from foreign forces can be obtained and how much benefit can be obtained from it. This is undoubtedly a great thing for managers who have reached the end of their rope.
In other words, although the managers who are monitored by the Market Brotherhood to a considerable extent cannot yet appear to be working for us on the surface, they have actually already stood closely with us.
"Your Excellency, Manager, let me get straight to the point."
Lei Xiao was not polite and just described the whole story.
"It's really outrageous that something like this happened. Your Majesty is right. Once you find the mastermind behind the scenes, you will never let him off lightly!"
After listening to Lei Xiao's words, the manager responded without any hesitation: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Since it is your Majesty's request, it is my duty to do so."
Having said that, the manager's voice showed a touch of embarrassment again, and added: "It's just that your Majesty must have known something about it. The current coverage is limited to the south of the Fluorescent Rift Valley, and the two alliances The coverage below is too far. The only way is to send a personal invitation letter. ”
"But I actually don't have much interaction with the other party. If I send it directly with an ordinary type of personal invitation letter for an ordinary market, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve the results expected by His Majesty."
At this point, the manager quickly added: "But please don't worry, Your Majesty, I have a way to implement your Majesty's plan smoothly!"
"Your Excellency, the manager, it's okay to say so."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and continued to listen to the other party's words.
"Your Majesty, the goal is to hold a large-scale cinephile market that is far beyond the normal scale, and let the other party take the initiative to send it to your door." The manager's voice showed a bit of excitement, and he said: "And your Majesty is The boss behind all this!”(End of Chapter)
