Chapter 354: Confused Uninvited Guest
Hearing this, the three commanders were astonished, and immediately followed the prestige, only to see a young man in plain clothes standing there on a street corner not far away.
Because of facing the sun, the bright sunlight left a faint golden halo on his body, which made people feel dizzy.
Beside him, there were five strong men who faintly exuded impressive aura.
At this moment, even though the three commanders of Shuiyue City, who were at the level of third-tier senior powerhouses, could not see through the specific strength of the group in front of them.
But the only thing that can be confirmed is that, including the simple young man, the strength of these strong men is above them!
"Six powerhouses above Tier 3 senior level?!"
Realizing this, the female commander Carol's expression froze, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she immediately pressed her hand on the sword hilt at her waist, and said in a deep voice, "May I ask who you are?"
At the same moment, the crisp armor collision sounded.
Under Carol's gesture, several groups of heavily armed garrison soldiers immediately surrounded him with vigilance on their faces.
"Captain Carol, please be safe and take a look at the objects in that young man's hands!" At this moment, a middle-aged commander on the side quickly reminded him.
Hearing the reminder from colleagues around her, Carol, who was holding a sword hilt, looked intently.
What the young man in plain clothes presented in his hand was a delicate and small token depicting the floating moon in the water.
And the floating moon coat of arms on it is exactly the same as that engraved on the breastplate of every Shuiyue city defense army.
"This is the token of the Fuyue family owned by the city lord and Miss Faxia who is the successor of the city lord?!
It is said that this kind of token will only be given to close friends and benefactors who have helped the Fuyue family greatly, and it represents the highest respect of the Fuyue family.
How could it be in your... your hands? "
Seeing this, Carol's sassy face suddenly revealed a look of surprise, and the hand that was holding the hilt of the sword tightly relaxed unconsciously.
Undoubtedly, it was Lei Xiao and his party standing directly opposite her.
And the token of the Fuyue family in Lei Xiao's hand was of course given by Fa Xia, the heir of the family.
"So... so it's you!"
After seeing Lei Xiao's face clearly, he was stunned for a moment.
On the face of one of the middle-aged commanders, a look of surprise suddenly appeared, and he blurted out: "This young adult.
It was the big man who helped Miss Faxia clear all the huge debts at the Alchemist Conference in Songlin City! "
As soon as these words came out, whether it was Carol or another middle-aged commander, shocking expressions appeared on their faces.
And all the soldiers beside him also had expressions of awe and reverence, and Lei Xiao cast awe-inspiring gazes at the same time.
At that time, after Lei Xiao sent 2 million golden dragons to Shuiyue City through the Shanglu Trade Fair in Fanyin City, it immediately caused an uproar in the city.
You know, 2 million golden dragons is the total profit of the entire city for more than ten years!
At that time, even though Lei Xiao was operating in the name of Faxia himself.
However, the discerning people in Shuiyue City understand clearly.
Behind this family heir who is famous for his waywardness, there must still be a huge and powerful force!
"So, this young man with a calm face in front of me is the head of that huge force..."
Realizing this, an uncontrollable respect suddenly appeared on Carol's sassy face.
She quickly waved her hand to disperse the ordinary soldiers around, and then went forward with the other two middle-aged commanders.
On the other side, Lei Xiao was also a little surprised when he saw the middle-aged commander recognized him directly, but he soon understood.
"I see.
I remember that at the alchemist conference in Songlin City, besides Faxia, besides the personal maid Ah Bing, there was another third-tier powerhouse as a guard. "
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and thought to himself: "Although I haven't had any communication with the other party, the impression is not very deep.
But if you recall carefully, the other Tier 3 powerhouse guard is undoubtedly the middle-aged commander. "
"My lord, let me introduce myself again, the first garrison brigade of Shuiyue City, Captain Gerry, see my lord!"
On the opposite side, I saw the middle-aged commander bearing the brunt, bowing to Lei Xiao and saying: "Thank you for your help to our Shuiyue City!"
"The second garrison brigade of Shuiyue City, Captain Carol, please see my lord!"
"The third garrison brigade of Shuiyue City, Captain Crewe, please see my lord!"
Immediately afterwards, Carol and another middle-aged commander also bowed and saluted.
The three of them were all promoted by the father of Faxia's city lord, and they were equally loyal to Faxia as his heir.
Therefore, for Lei Xiao who helped Faxia completely clear his debts, they naturally would not have any other thoughts other than respect.
After all, if Lei Xiao hadn't appeared, the City Lord's Mansion would have been in a state of financial deficit year after year.
Once they are impeached by the family elders' meeting, according to the ruthless temperament of the elders, I am afraid that their end will be more or less unfortunate.
"There's no need to be too polite." Seeing that things were going more smoothly than expected, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Then he said seriously: "As for the City Lord's Mansion, together with the sudden disappearance of the small island where it is located, I have seen it with my own eyes.
The most urgent task now is to find the reason for the disappearance as soon as possible.
Next, describe to me all the circumstances you know and the abnormal things that happened during this period. "
"Understood, my lord, then, let's start with the abnormal situation that happened during this period."
On the other side, Gerry, the captain of the Shuiyue City garrison who had met Lei Xiao before as Faxia's guard in Gelin City, bowed slightly, and began to describe to Lei Xiao.
Next, through Gerry's detailed introduction, Lei Xiao learned about it.
In the past few days, there have indeed been many strange phenomena that have never been seen before in Shuiyue City.
First, it is the energy particles in the air. Occasionally there will be strange fluctuations and fluctuations, and most of the time it will return to normal. This has been repeated many times, and there is no reason at all.
Second, whether it is the moat or the lake in the island in the center of the city, the water level has dropped to varying degrees for unknown reasons, as if being sucked away by someone.
The third is that at night, occasionally someone will hear a sound similar to a broken window, but they cannot find the source of the sound.
Fourth, in the recent cities, many yingying warblers raised by others have disappeared inexplicably.
"Besides, let's not hide it, my lord, in fact, these things are just summed up by the few of us."
At this moment, Gerry shook his head helplessly, and then continued: "Among the four items, except for the first item, it is something that the Lord City Master understands.
The remaining three items were all reported by residents of the city to our garrison. Although a series of investigations were also conducted, they did not attract much attention. "
"That's right, it wasn't until the City Lord's Mansion disappeared that we realized belatedly that perhaps there might be some kind of potential connection among them."
On the other side, Carol also sighed softly, and said, "If we can connect these things together earlier and report to the Lord City Lord.
Perhaps, the city lord will find some clues. "
"Speaking of which, my lord, even though the three of us combined all the abnormal situations that happened recently.
But he was still confused, unable to find the connection at all. Immediately afterwards, Gerry and the other two captains looked at each other helplessly, and then added.
"I see." Hearing this, Lei Xiao stroked his chin.
While muttering to himself: "The occasional abnormal energy fluctuations, the water level of the moat and the lake in the island, the sound of broken windows, and the disappearing warblers..."
After thinking for a while, Lei Xiao turned his head slightly, and then asked Hu Zhang, Ye Cang, Chao Yan and the others: "What do you guys think about this?"
"My lord, judging from the current situation, it is difficult to make an accurate judgment.
It is also impossible to analyze whether there is a potential connection between these four things.
Perhaps, part of it is related to the disappearance of the City Lord's Mansion, and the other part is caused by other things, which is still unknown. "
Ye Cang pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose, and responded: "Among them, the most intuitive one is the abnormal energy fluctuations in the air.
However, everything around us is normal now, making this point impossible to understand intuitively. "
"Indeed."
Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, then asked the three Shuiyue city defense captains in front of him: "About the occasional abnormal fluctuations.
When will it appear? Are there any rules? "
"Responding to my lord, it is usually at noon and midnight, and it will only last for a short time." Hearing this, Gerry immediately replied: "In the beginning, including the city lord.
We all thought that it was just a certain magician or alchemist in the city who was studying some kind of rare spell, and we just sent a team of elite magicians in the city to conduct further monitoring.
However, due to abnormal energy fluctuations, the duration is very short.
Therefore, it is impossible to confirm the specific source each time.
It wasn't until we discovered that the time of abnormal energy fluctuations seemed to be very fixed, which attracted attention.
However, just today, when the city lord was about to start a thorough investigation into the matter, the city lord's mansion disappeared together with the small island where it was located. "
Speaking of this, Gerry swallowed anxiously first, then looked at the blue sky above his head, and added: "My lord, it will be noon soon.
If there is no accident, that strange energy fluctuation should appear again. "
Just when Gerry said this.
In the next second, a sudden change happened.
Accompanied by an inexplicable energy fluctuation, it swept past.
Without warning, on the empty and calm lake ahead, a storm suddenly raged.
In an instant, huge waves rolled in, rushing towards the neatly repaired shore surrounded by large stones, causing waves higher than waves.
Immediately afterwards, on the turbulent lake, black shadows with strange shapes appeared abruptly. At a glance, there were more than twenty of them.
Observe carefully, in the huge waves, these figures are actually stone giants whose bodies are pure black.
I saw that the height of the giants was about 3 meters, and under the bright sunlight, their bodies exuded a strange dark light.
Moreover, strange purple lines flashed continuously from the bodies of these tall black stone giants.
The godless eyes even emitted a blood-red radiance, which looked extremely frightening.
The most important thing is that the strength of these stone men has obviously reached the level of the third-order powerhouse.
"More than 20 stone giants whose strength is at the third level, where did they come from?!"
Seeing this scene, the faces of the three captains of the Shuiyue City garrison suddenly revealed expressions of disbelief.
"My lord, please be careful, leave this place to us to deal with!"
Immediately afterwards, the three of them bowed slightly to Lei Xiao again, and at the same time began to direct several squadrons of the garrison soldiers around to form formations.
At the same time, several garrison magicians also fired red magic flares into the air, obviously asking for support.
For a moment, the scene suddenly became tense and chaotic.
"My lord, this seems to be a high-level golem puppet."
On the other side, Chao Yan's small face was full of sternness and said: "However, this kind of black stone giant, I have never heard of it before.
Moreover, what is certain is that the energy fluctuations on it are very weird, and there is no record even in the large attic library of the Magic Tower. "
"My lord, my subordinates did not feel the energy fluctuations emitted when summoning the golem puppets.
It seems that these black stone giants were not just summoned. Immediately afterwards, Ye Cang's ~ also reached Lei Xiao's ears.
"My lord, apart from these golem puppets, my subordinates have not detected the aura of other strong men.
It seems that their controller is not here. "Finally, the knotweed bowed slightly and reported.
"So that's the case. There is no news from the disappearing city lord's mansion, and now a group of third-level high-level golem puppets have appeared out of thin air? It seems that things are getting more and more complicated."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao looked at the black stone giants rushing towards the shore and attacking the soldiers of the garrison indiscriminately, and said calmly, "Then.
The top priority now is to help the soldiers of Shuiyue City and clean up all these uninvited guests. "
"Obey! Your lord!"
Hearing this, except for the knotweed, the rest of the powerful members of the side immediately turned into meteors and rushed towards the group of black stone giants.
