Chapter 637 Before the Storm Comes
I saw Lei Xiao picked up the [Ash Eyes], and while motioning for Lina to come forward to get it, he said with a faint smile: "I originally planned to give this to you, but now it has another layer of meaning, so let me give it to you." Consider it your promotion gift."
"On the ring body, there are energy fluctuations and dead energy of the space system looming around?"
Lina took the light gold ring inlaid with gray and black gemstones with both hands, with a look of joy on her face, she jumped up and down and said, "My lord, this is a storage ring that has a bonus to necromancy?!"
"Exactly, let's play with it." Lei Xiao still kept a gentle smile and nodded slightly.
"The subordinates are very grateful to the lord, the lord is the ray of sunshine that shines on the subordinates!" Lina, who was holding the ring, said happily again.
Looking at Lena's delicate wheat-colored cheeks full of excitement, Lei Xiao casually opened the other party's attribute bar.
Name: Lena
Occupation: Necromancer
[Class: Tier 4, 1 star]
Loyalty: 100

"Good guy, has the Bone Explosion Technique I mastered become a stronger Bone Explosion Technique? And there is also a multiple Bone Spear Technique."
Lei Xiao's eyes moved on the translucent attribute bar in front of him, and he murmured in his heart: "Not bad, this girl has obviously become more ferocious."
After closing the attribute bar, Lei Xiao pondered for a while, and said again: "Lina, there must be a large number of monster bones in the forest around the territory, summon a thousand first-order necromancer beasts as soon as possible to prepare A rainy day."
"Obey! Please rest assured, my lord!"
Lina smiled confidently, and immediately bowed to accept the order: "When I returned to the territory in the morning, my subordinate happened to find a cave at the foot of the mountain. It is perfect for storing undead beasts there!"
"Very good. When you leave the territory, ask the old butler Ward to arrange for a third-tier maid who is familiar with the surrounding terrain to accompany you."
Looking at Lina's energetic appearance, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction.
Just as Lina left happily, the two alchemists, Xueya and Faxia, knocked on the door politely again.
"My lord, since this is the first time for this subordinate to alchemy a third-tier potion alone, he is not so proficient... At present, only half of the alchemy process has been completed."
I saw Xue Ya's fair and translucent face was full of coyness and uneasiness, and she bowed to report.
"My lord, and my subordinates too, although I have long expected the complexity of the third-order potion and prepared myself, it is still a bit hectic to make alchemy."
Faxia also scratched his frizzy short hair, and echoed embarrassingly.
"It's okay, just do your best."
Seeing that both of them looked exhausted with their magic power sapped, Lei Xiao smiled and waved his hands.
Regarding this point, Lei Xiao had already expected it.
According to previous understanding, even in the Cold Flame Alchemy session, Kasli, the vice president of the Alchemist Guild of Songlin City, who is quite prestigious, can only barely refine one potion a day, which is his best third-order potion.
As for Xueya and Faxia, although their strength is higher than the former by a level, they are both first alchemy third-order potions. In terms of experience, they obviously cannot compare with each other who has been alchemy for most of their lives.
Therefore, being able to complete half of the alchemy process in one day is already a very remarkable achievement.
After that, Lei Xiao upgraded the storage rings of Xueya, Faxia, Ariel, Burt, and Jubai according to the plan.
Among them, the third-tier storage rings of Xueya, Fasha, Bert, and Jubai all got a hundred-fold increase, so that after Lei Xiao gave each of them two brand new rings, there were 420 left.
As for Ariel's storage ring, it was originally on the fourth level, but this time it was directly upgraded to the fifth level, making the space from the original 100 cubic meters to 500 cubic meters.
In addition, because Ariel's Tier 4 storage ring is a rare and rare equipment, it originally had the effect of enhancing light attribute magic. After upgrading to Tier 5, this effect was further strengthened.
"Thank you very much, Lord Lord!"
Caressing the fifth-tier storage ring that Lei Xiao had just handed over, Ariel expressed joy on her exquisite cheeks, and quickly saluted Lei Xiao.
Bert and Ju Bai on the side also had the same expression, bowing their heads deeply to Lei Xiao.
"Get up, everyone."
Lei Xiao raised his hand to the three of them, smiled and said.
When the three of them got up, Lei Xiao pondered for a while, and then asked: "Everyone, what do you think of the future situation?"
"Going back to the lord, after visiting various places with the lord this day, the subordinates have already felt some atmosphere of war."
I saw Bert bowed slightly to Lei Xiao first, and said seriously: "In addition, the city lords from all over the world have all mentioned a piece of news today, that is, the three princes originally only ignited in the capital and the surrounding area. The power war has gradually spread to other areas outside the capital."
"Senior Burt is right. When he left the capital, several affiliated cities around the capital had already started large-scale battles at the legion level, causing the surrounding area of the capital to be full of smoke."
The orange-white eyebrows were frowned, and he added sassyly: "However, because Mr. Wu, who is loyal to the old king, controls the forces of the eight major legions and often intervenes, so most of the casualties are small-scale, and it has not developed into a life-and-death situation." Deathmatch."
"To be precise, although Uncle Wu has the command of the eight major legions under the command of his father, there are currently only six major legions stationed inside and outside the capital. The Blade Legion is stationed in the extreme north Buluo Fortress together with my third sister."
Ariel moved her lotus steps lightly, shook her head helplessly and said, "My lord, but what is certain is that under the threat of the six major legions, if the three king brothers under him use their swords to talk about lawlessness, then they will Not to mention other places where the six legions can't intervene."
Hearing what Ariel said, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
I have seen the fortress army commanded by Bai Lao before during the offensive and defensive battles of the fortress.
Whether it is the overall combat power or morale, it is indeed higher than the ordinary garrison miscellaneous army, by more than one grade.
However, due to the lack of important supplies such as equipment and soldiers after many battles with the Holy Night Army, the combat power of this elite army, which was originally equipped with at least second-tier equipment, has dropped a lot.
Bringing his thoughts back to reality, Lei Xiao took a deep breath, and said slowly: "I already understand what you mean, just as I expected, the flames of power war may spread to the land where we are at any time. Eastern Region."
"My lord, that's exactly the case."
Ariel looked solemn, and said solemnly: "Besides, the situation in our area is more complicated. Although it is almost certain that this area does not have a large-scale force under the four princes, but..."
Speaking of this, I saw Ariel drooping her eyebrows, and whispered softly: "But after all, the thorn in the eyes of the brothers of this subordinate is still in Kongqing Town, plus the victory of the fortress offensive and defensive battle a few days ago... "
"Don't worry, when the battle begins, it will be the time when the name of Leng Yan's fifth princess, King Ariel, will resound throughout Leng Yan and even the human kingdoms."
Looking at Ariel's worried expression, Lei Xiao smiled lightly, stood up from his seat, and said, "I will do my best to fulfill my original promise and help you climb the cold flame." throne."
"My subordinates are very grateful to the lord!"
Ariel's exquisite cheeks were full of gratitude, and she said excitedly: "In this way, those innocent people of Lengyan who have been involved in the vortex of power disputes will not have to suffer the torment of war for no reason!"
After listening to Ariel's words, Lei Xiao just kept smiling and didn't make any other guarantees or promises.
At present, the situation in the eastern region of Lengyan, where the territory is located, is complicated.
In addition to the first prince centered on Songluo City and the second prince headed by Tiegebao, these two forces with heavy forces, there is also the Holy Night Kingdom outside.
The most important thing is that there has been no news from the mysterious organization that has been hiding in the dark and unpredictable, just like the calm before the storm.
Moreover, according to the current information, the Eldest Prince and the Third Prince are both assisted by experts.
If one of them is a mysterious organization, then who is the other party? It's simply horrifying.
But what is certain is that the forces that can stand behind a certain prince and help him fight for the throne are obviously huge monstrous beasts, not ordinary people.
Lei Xiao couldn't help but took a deep breath again, with a serious look on his face.
Although after a series of previous actions, the scale of his troops has now reached the level of rivaling any of the two princes, but it is only limited to this area.
In the case of internal and external troubles, he obviously did not have enough confidence to defeat the opponent 100%.
It is even less sure that after the victory of the war, the entire area can be completely included in the pocket quickly.
If he hadn't taken control of the entire area quickly and defended Wangxing City on the Wangxing Corridor with heavy troops, what he would have ushered in would undoubtedly be a crazy counterattack from the other regional forces of the two princes.
The most important thing is that in this process, the comeback of the Holy Night Kingdom and the sudden appearance of mysterious organizations cannot be ruled out. These are unforeseen adverse variables.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.
Ariel, Jubai, and Burt in front of them also had serious expressions on their faces.
The three people who once stood at the core of Leng Yan's power all understood clearly.
The city lords of these places, whether they are the traditional nobles who have continued since the era of the hero king, or the new nobles who have risen in the past three hundred years.
Although most of them impose heavy taxes in their respective fiefs for their own interests, and retain the abolished serfdom system, they are even more extravagant, regardless of the life and death of the bottom civilians.
But without exception, they all received the kingdom's top elite education, and had the help of capable people and strangers. The heritage left by the family for generations should not be underestimated.
In other words, although these enemies are living a luxurious life, they are not pedantic and incompetent, but cunning and cunning. Even their own strength is often the best, and they are by no means easily defeated.
Sensing the uneasiness of the three of them, Lei Xiao couldn't help frowning slightly, but then relaxed it again.
"Forget it, on the battlefield, it is full of uncertainty all the time."
"And now, before the storm of war comes, the power in my hands has almost reached the maximum that I can have at present. Next, it depends on how to make moves."
"Once the battle begins, it will be a super-large battlefield where 100,000 or even 200,000 soldiers will melee. Such a huge scale, although for me now, it is still a bit difficult to control..."
"But fortunately, I have not only veterans such as Burt, Jubai, and Benson under my command, but also wise ministers and management talents such as Ariel, Marquis Rose, Howard, and Orr, not to mention As the fifth-order powerhouse, there are subordinates with their own characteristics, such as the knotweed and the red night."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao walked up to the three of them, nodded to them one by one and said, "As long as we work together, we will be invincible!"
Hearing the ~ Ariel, Bert, and the orange-white faces also showed a look of excitement, and they nodded heavily.
"Okay, you should stay in the territory these few days. I have told Lin to make a false impression that the princess is still in power in Kongqing Town. Moreover, the City Lord's Mansion of Kongqing Town, which is protected by a detection enchantment, also You will not be spied on by enemy spies casually."
Looking at the three people's gradually firm eyes, Lei Xiao said again: "Go back and rest. Before the war comes, we must maintain sufficient energy at all times."
"Obey! Your lord!"
The three of them stroked their chests together and bowed to leave.
After the three of them left, Lei Xiao returned to his seat, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
During the day today, when I went to various territories, I also made an extremely important deployment.
And this will undoubtedly further enhance their hopes of winning.
