In a hall filled with khaki colors and bright textures, two teams of people were facing each other in a tense confrontation, causing an extremely dangerous atmosphere to spread rapidly.
Under the light of the light crystals inlaid in the hall, one party was none other than a strong man from the desert cat race like the masked man, while the other party was a tall werewolf race, obviously similar to the deputy leader Lu Cass comes from the same ethnic group.
Moreover, it is not difficult to tell from the cat paw emblems decorated everywhere in the hall that this is obviously the territory of the desert cat people.
"Desert Cat People, do you really intend to disobey the order of Lord Lucas, the leader of the Alliance?"
The leader of the scar-faced werewolf snorted coldly and said sternly: "The price of disobeying the leader of the alliance is not something that a mere clan like you can afford! Lord Lucas has said that those who disobey the order and the entire force will be punished." Completely erased!”
"You should clearly understand that compared with the entire Huangsha Alliance, your strength is nothing at all!"
Upon hearing the threat from the scar-faced werewolf, many of the strong desert catmen opposite them involuntarily rolled their throats. Their voices were obviously lowered by three points, and even their pricked ears were lowered.
The other party is right. Even within the alliance, the strength of the desert cat people is extremely limited. It cannot be compared with powerful forces such as the Gorgons and the Moon Demon Wolf Clan, let alone fight against the entire alliance.
"How about it? Now in response to Lord Lucas sending troops to the deserted fortress and bloodbathing the territory of the human emperor, maybe Lord Lucas will be lenient."
Noticing the weakening momentum of the powerful cat people, the leader of the scar-faced werewolf said arrogantly: "This is your last chance, don't be ignorant, otherwise the army will come to kill you and your family members." The whole clan will be stained with blood!”
However, the scar-faced werewolf did not notice that in the center of the panicked cat-man warriors, there was still a middle-aged man with a resolute face and khaki cat ears without any distortion. This man was the cat-man. Chief Lannis.
"Your Excellency, Special Envoy, please tell the Deputy Chief that we will not send troops until we know the whereabouts of the Chief."
Lannis's face was calm and he once again rejected the other party's proposal.
"Your Majesty the Patriarch, are you talking about the former leader?"
The scar-faced werewolf narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered: "This special envoy has already said from the beginning that the former leader was accidentally ambushed by the human emperor after leaving the Shadow Market, and most of the accompanying elders and powerful All died on the spot.”
"And the new leader, Mr. Lucas, has gathered an army to attack the deserted fortress just to avenge the previous leader. What reason do you have for not sending troops?"
The scar-faced werewolf's voice became increasingly impatient, and he said coldly: "What on earth do you want to do, my new leader, who is so rebellious?"
At this point, the scar-faced werewolf's voice became a little playful again, and continued: "Your Excellency, Patriarch, I heard that your daughter also died in the human emperor's sneak attack. Don't you want to avenge her?" < br>
"Of course I do, but I want to find out who is really behind the scenes."
Lannis's complexion obviously fluctuated, but he still said as calmly as possible.
"Your Majesty the Patriarch, are you questioning the words of the new leader?"
The scar-faced werewolf's expression suddenly darkened, and he shouted coldly: "All this was witnessed by the new leader and the new Queen of the Gorgon. Isn't the authority of these two adults enough to convince you?"
"But I really can't think of a reason for the human emperor to sneak attack on the leader."
Faced with the opponent's aggressiveness, Lannis still looked calm and said calmly: "Furthermore, even before the leader's body was found, the deputy leader immediately took over the authority, and the Gorgon clan also immediately The throne changes hands, is this too hasty? ”
Hearing this, the other cat people elders all looked helpless and frightened.
As the leader of the cat people, Lannis's straightforwardness and stubbornness are well known in the clan. He has always managed the entire clan in an orderly manner, but the current situation is obviously not the time to stick to his own opinions.
Then again, it all happened too suddenly. Just as Lannis said, the human emperor had no reason to sneak attack on the leader. This would be tantamount to setting himself on fire.
It is not difficult to see from this that there must be something fishy.
I am afraid that other forces that have sent troops are more or less aware of this, or at least have suspicions.
It's just that Lucas has now taken over the leader's banner, coupled with the full support of the new Gorgon Queen, and with the two largest forces, the Moon Demon Wolf Clan and the Gorgons, taking the lead, even if other forces Even if I have doubts in my heart, I have to bow my head and surrender.
"Chief of the Cat People, it seems that you are determined to go against the new leader."
The scar-faced werewolf's patience was obviously completely worn out. He immediately took out a golden token from his arms and shouted: "The new leader has an order. Once Lannis disobeys, other strong cat people can kill him." In this way, the strong catman who successfully kills Lannis will be recognized by the leader and become the next catman leader!”
As the scar-faced werewolf's murderous words fell, the other powerful werewolves roared and bared their fangs, lowering their bodies, obviously ready to attack and kill, but the cat elders did not react at all. It was as if he didn't hear it.
"Are you all deaf? This stubborn guy is leading you to destruction!"
Seeing that the situation did not develop as he expected, the scar-faced werewolf looked furious and yelled: "Why don't you kill him immediately?"
Hearing the sound, the cat people elders still turned a deaf ear. They just stood firmly behind Lannis and expressed their attitude with actions.
Although their clan leader is upright and stubborn, he is also upright and has already won the loyalty and respect of themselves and the entire desert cat people. Naturally, he will not listen to these ambitious guys.
"Okay, okay, you all are waiting, the leader will not let you go!"
The scarred-faced werewolf had no choice but to extinguish the murderous intent in his heart after examining that his side was not strong enough to shake Lannis, and turned to leave.
"Tell your deputy leader that the truth will never be covered up, and it will never be covered up. In order to pursue the truth, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, we can't stop us!"
Lannis crossed his arms and his voice was strong.
"What a heroic statement."
Just as Lannis finished speaking, another strange male voice suddenly sounded in the hall.
Everyone present was astonished and followed the sound, only to find a human youth standing at the other end of the hall with a calm expression.
Needless to say, the person who came was none other than Lei Xiao.
"Human Emperor?!"
Seeing Lei Xiao's figure, whether it was Lannis and other cat-human warriors, or the scar-faced werewolf warriors and minions, their eyes widened in disbelief.
Lei Xiao's magical portrait had already spread throughout the Desert Alliance, and everyone recognized it immediately.
"Human Emperor, how did you get here?"
In surprise, an elder catman with a gray beard blurted out with disbelief on his face.
You know, this is the patriarch's hall in the capital of the desert cat race. Not only is it extremely tightly guarded, it is also covered with many defensive magic arrays and detection arrays, including absolute defense barriers. Even a chirping oriole can fly. Not coming in, let alone a human emperor who is not familiar with the terrain?
Among the surprised people, Lannis looked at him with a frown and did not speak immediately.
"Don't be surprised, look at what this is."
Lei Xiao turned his palm up, and the masked man's pendant emerged.
"Is this a personal belonging of the young patriarch Emily?"
An older female cat elder reacted immediately, and said with fierce intent: "Emperor of the human race, it was you who secretly attacked the leader and the young patriarch!"
"Now that all the stolen goods have been obtained, why don't you kill him quickly to avenge your young patriarch?"
The scar-faced werewolf immediately started firing and slowly approached Lei Xiao.
Hearing the sound, several cat elders, including the female elder just now, roared from their throats, and their sharp claws that had been restrained were revealed one after another.
"Everyone, calm down and think about where this place is. Even if he got the pendant from Emily, he would never come here."
Lannis waved his hand and stopped him: "And Emily is one of the guards of the leader. She has received extremely strict anti-spiritual attack training. Even the sixth-level peak powerhouse cannot get anything directly from her mind. Useful information, and Emily can really get through here with this pendant.”
After hearing Lannis's words, the cat elders calmed down.
The patriarch is right. Emily has been extremely naughty since she was a child. She often sneaks out to play with the children of other tribes in the alliance, but every time she comes back, she is blocked by the barrier and inevitably gets a scolding from the patriarch.
As she grew older, Emily began to study ways to cross various barriers, and worked hard with the elders who deployed and maintained the barriers, and finally found an extremely complicated path. The exclusive route avoids all detection circles and various magic traps, and the pendant is the only key to opening this route.
Later, although Lannis learned about this, he did not close this loophole that only Emily knew, because once something happened to the cat people's capital, Emily was the only one who could come and go freely. The effect is self-evident.
Furthermore, the patriarch also said just now that although Emily is a naughty girl, she is extremely talented. She has shown extraordinary strength and cultivation ability since she was a child, and has broken several records. She can be called the leader of the clan. A proud man of heaven who is rare to see in a thousand years.
Especially in terms of resisting mental attacks, even elders like them are far behind. This is one of the reasons why she was selected by the leader to become a guard.
This means that unless Emily takes the initiative to tell the human emperor the specific route, the human emperor will never come here quietly.
On the other side of the hall, he saw the warning eyes of the cat people elders gradually disappearing. Although Lei Xiao's face remained calm, he felt a little frightened in his heart.
He did come here through the information provided by the masked man Emily, who even drew a detailed route map for him.
However, because the other party's painting ability is extremely limited, it looks no different from a mess. If it weren't for the distinctive features of the cat people's buildings and the uncomplicated corridors, I would have been lost in this building, which is not much different in scale from Leng Yan. In the huge palace.
"Your Majesty the human race, why did Emily give you all the tokens and the route here? What happened?"
Lannis' resolute face could not help but reveal a hint of eagerness as he asked Lei Xiao.
Before Lannis could finish speaking, the scar-faced werewolf saw that the situation was not good, and quickly interrupted his words and said: "Catman Clan Leader, don't be deceived by the cunning human emperor!"
"Your Majesty, Special Envoy, I just want to ask His Majesty the Human Race a question. Why are you so nervous?"
Lannis frowned and said calmly: "Is it possible that you are afraid that we will learn some ulterior secret?"
"This special envoy finally understands that you must have colluded with the human emperor, and that's why you refused to send troops!"
The scar-faced werewolf simply bit Lannis back and shouted coldly: "That special envoy has stopped your thoughts! Emperor of the human race, go to hell!"
Having said that, the scar-faced werewolf who was already unknowingly close to Lei Xiao did not hesitate. His whole body suddenly burst out with strong murderous intent, and the long-handled ax suddenly appeared in his hand, and he came towards Lei Xiao to attack and kill him.
For a moment, the majestic energy fluctuations of the scar-faced werewolf filled the entire hall, and even the space was slightly distorted. The momentum was extremely astonishing.
Seeing this scene, all the cat people elders couldn't help but feel chills in their hearts.
The strength of this scar-faced werewolf is at level six and two stars, and he is notorious even within the Moon Demon Wolf Clan, which is famous for its strength. It is said that several strong men from second-rate forces have suffered losses at his hands, and even directly Killed by it.
Although the human emperor is also quite prestigious, the human race is too weak after all... The most important thing is that at this distance, even the strongest Lannis cannot stop the opponent's footsteps.
However, at the moment when the scar-faced werewolf was about to approach Lei Xiao with a monstrous aura, Lei Xiao was surrounded by purple light and had already made a move first.
The next second, the scar-faced werewolf felt the dazzling thunder in front of him, and an overwhelming and powerful energy shot out, easily breaking through his thick energy barrier like a destructive force.
When he lowered his head again, a colorful long sword had penetrated him, directly making a big hole in his chest.
"You bastard, how is this possible?"
The fierce light in the scar-faced werewolf's eyes instantly solidified on his ferocious face, and his huge lifeless body collapsed to the ground. Seeing this scene, the entire hall fell silent. (End of chapter)
