Chapter 1005: Lion King Palace at night
Under the guidance of Wu and a group of guardsmen, Lei Xiao, Ariel, and all the main subordinates moved forward, and soon arrived in front of the majestic and heavy city gate of Lengyan Palace.
Seeing Lei Xiao and his entourage approaching, the hundreds of royal guards guarding the gate immediately knelt down on one knee respectfully, making a crisp sound of armor clashing.
I saw that all these ordinary Guards soldiers were equipped with third-level equipment, and their lowest strength was at the peak of second-level. The number of third-level soldiers was no longer small, and the lineup could be said to be luxurious.
"There is no need to be polite. Your Highness the Princess and Your Excellency the guest have been busy all day. Please open the city gate quickly."
Wuwei nodded and gave instructions to the leading soldier captain. The latter bowed to accept the order and immediately began to take action.
In the blink of an eye, with the sound of silky metal friction, the thick metal door in front of everyone slowly opened.
At the same time, the absolute defensive barrier that enveloped the entire palace also opened a crack the same size as the city gate, paving the way for everyone to move forward.
Looking at this rather magical scene, Lei Xiao could clearly feel it.
Although a piece of the absolute defensive barrier has been removed, there are strong energy fluctuations rippling back and forth at the location of the crack, which is a reflection of the operation of various detection barriers.
"In order to prevent strong people who are invisible or using other concealment methods from taking the opportunity to sneak in when the door is opened?"
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately, under Wu's guidance, he and Ariel entered the gate of this huge palace.
As soon as he stepped on the thick stone road, the first thing that caught Lei Xiao's eyes was an extremely large castle courtyard, just like a clean and tidy giant park.
On both sides of the spacious road, there are neatly trimmed shrubs and colorful flower beds.
In particular, the huge flower beds have been carefully cultivated and trimmed into the cold flame holy lion patterns that represent the royal family.
The golden lion with its teeth and claws spread out is so lifelike, full of artistic sense and at the same time, it makes people feel solemn and solemn.
Sniffing the aroma of plants and the unique fresh smell of earth, Lei Xiao walked forward in the courtyard while observing with curiosity on his face.
In the center of the courtyard is a giant fountain sculpted with a lion standing on a mountain top.
The lion looked east, its mouth slightly open, and it was constantly spraying a curtain of clear and translucent water outwards, making a crisp sound of splashing, just like a lone watcher.
In addition to the fountains and flower beds in front of you, a little further away are full of carefully trimmed trees, making everything full of the intertwined atmosphere of nature and art.
Further away in the trees, the spiers and arrow towers of the ancient castle were clearly visible, and Lei Xiao could even clearly see the triangular flag fluttering on the castle in the distance.
Two sets of sunset sunk on the spire of the castle in the distance, and the twilight filled the clear blue sky, making the shadows of Lei Xiao and his group grow long, and casting everything a deep orange-red color.
The breeze blew past his face, Lei Xiao felt the perfect warmth of the twilight, and took a deep breath of fresh air.
I have to say that such a beautiful scenery, like a medieval oil painting, really makes people feel relaxed and happy.
"He's finally back."
Beside Lei Xiao, Ariel's fair cheeks were filled with excitement.
Looking at the long-lost beautiful scenery around her, the Princess Lengyan, who was about to be crowned, was already filled with thoughts.
At that time, in order to avoid the fatal assassination, she was terrified and finally escaped from this familiar but unfamiliar place of life and death.
From the wayward princess who had nothing to lose and left a foreign country, to surrendering at the feet of the lord, and then under the leadership of the lord, she has been unstoppable all the way, and once again set foot on the homeland where she grew up.
All of this is like a book filled with thrilling events. It is deeply engraved in Ariel's heart and will never be forgotten.
While sighing in her heart, Ariel's starry eyes moved and fell on Lei Xiao unconsciously.
I saw the last ray of sunset making the latter's face more angular, like the finely carved lion not far away.
"Your Excellency, the castle in front of you is called Lion Castle. It is an important place where King Lengyan of all dynasties handled government affairs, convened noble ministers for discussions, held banquets and celebrations, and received distinguished guests."
Wu pointed at the giant quaint castle that became increasingly clear at the end of the road, and introduced to Lei Xiao: "The coronation ceremony of Her Royal Highness the Princess will also be held in the auditorium of the Lion Castle."
"As expected of a royal castle, it is truly magnificent."
Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the majestic building not far away, and couldn't help but sigh.
The scale of the Lion Castle is astonishing, even better than the Light Chaser Castle in Crystal Blue City. It looks like a giant lion sitting and lying down, exuding a majestic and majestic momentum.
After that, under Wu's guidance, Lei Xiao first walked around inside and outside the heavily guarded Lion's Castle, and then walked deeper into the palace.
Through Wu's further introduction, Lei Xiao learned.
In addition to the Lion Castle and a number of attached buildings in the front courtyard, the back courtyard is where the royal family members live, entertain and relax.
Divided by extremely vast gardens and gardens, the back courtyard was divided into large and small residential areas, including not only the princess castle where Ariel once lived, but also several prince castles for other princes. .
Of course, compared with the massive Lion Castle, the scale of these castles appears to be relatively limited.
Since the beginning of the power dispute, the tit-for-tat princes have moved away one after another. Until Ariel was the last one to leave, the once bustling backyard became increasingly deserted.
"Your Excellency, guest, in addition to Her Royal Highness the Princess's residence and other buildings, there are two extremely important buildings in the backyard."
At this time, two moons were hanging in the sky, the night was deep, and the sky was completely dark.
But under the influence of the palace magician and the lighting array, the entire palace was still brightly lit, even much brighter than at sunset.
Wu was still walking at the front, his figure becoming more burly under the reflection of the magic light ball. He introduced to Lei Xiao: "That's Wolong Fort and the Lion King's Palace."
"Among them, Wolong Castle is the residence of King Leng Yan. Like Lion Castle, it was built by His Majesty the Hero King himself. It is also an extremely tightly guarded building in the entire palace."
After hearing what Wu said, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
As expected of the old boy Wang Xina, Wolong Fort is really a very Daxia-style name.
As for the Lion King Palace, I am no stranger to it. I have heard Ariel mention it many times that it is the only miraculous building of the Lengyan royal family.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, at the end of the road, a huge, gleaming building loomed, completely surrounded by iron fences and several magic towers. The perimeter was filled with guard soldiers and palace guards. Magician.
"Your Excellency, guest, that is another important building, the Lion King's Palace. It is not only a miraculous building that embodies the highest wisdom of the Cold Flame Kingdom, but also the glory and symbol of the royal family."
Wu nodded to Lei Xiao and introduced again: "Back then, His Majesty the King of Heroes accidentally found a residual design of a miraculous building in an ancient human ruins."
"In his great joy, His Majesty the King of Heroes gathered Leng Yan's top magical power. It took him thirty years to finally establish it."
"With the subsequent efforts of many Lengyan King, the Lion King Palace, which has the function of self-improvement and upgrade, has reached the full level, and finally formed the current scale."
Following Wu's explanation, Lei Xiao and his group had already arrived at the iron fence.
Under the illumination of many magic light **** suspended in mid-air, the shape of the Lion King's Palace gradually became clearer. The entire building turned out to be in the shape of a huge lion's head, standing there quietly.
The closed entrance is exactly where the lion's mouth is.
I saw a giant lion head with faint red light and golden light all over its body. It looked calm and majestic. It looked extremely deep and motionless like a mountain under the moonlight night.
"Is this the miraculous building of the royal family? It's better to see it than to hear it a hundred times."
Lei Xiao looked at the huge building in front of him, which was even larger than the Guardian Defense Agency, and couldn't help but exclaimed in wonder.
Although the size of this Lion King's Palace is not as high as that of Light Chaser Castle, according to Ariel, in addition to the huge main hall, there is also a spacious passage leading underground.
This undoubtedly shows that the scale of the Lion King Hall is not limited to the part that can be seen on the ground.
Of course, even if Ariel is allowed to enter the interior of the Lion King's Palace, her range of activities is limited to the main hall, so Ariel doesn't know what exactly is under the ground.
After all, only the King of Cold Flames who wears the Cold Flame Crown and has royal blood can enter the deepest part of the Lion King's Palace without any hindrance.
"One of the architectural functions of the Lion King Palace is to generate holy lion guardians whose appearance is the same as the place where they slept in Luolong City before. Each one's strength is at the peak of the fourth level."
"According to Ariel, she once saw eight of them at the same time, but it cannot be ruled out that there are other sacred lion guardians."
Lei Xiao's eyes wandered back and forth on the huge shining lion's head, and he nodded thoughtfully.
"And what Ariel can be sure of is that as a miraculous building, the Lion King's Palace has more than just the function of being the guardian of the Holy Lion."
"As for other functions, Ariel once curiously asked her father, but the answer she received was that you can only know it by walking into the deepest part of the Lion King's Palace."
Thinking of this, a look of curiosity appeared on Lei Xiao's face.
Although the Cold Flame Holy Lion is quite powerful, its range of activities is limited to the surroundings of the miracle building. It is just an ordinary golem puppet. It is obviously not comparable to the Guardian Defense Agency and the Light Chaser Castle. It should only be an ordinary self-defense. mechanism.
From this, it is not difficult to see that the secret hidden in the deepest part of the Lion King Palace is probably the real core of this miraculous building.
"I wonder what the real function of the Lion King's Palace is, as the only miraculous building of the Leng Yan royal family?"
Just when the curiosity on Lei Xiao's face became more and more obvious.
The warning sound beside me rang again: "Your Excellency, please be careful and do not come within 500 meters of the Lion King Palace, otherwise the Cold Flame Holy Lion guarding the Lion King Palace will appear."
"I understand, thank you Mr. Wu for the reminder."
Lei Xiao nodded to Wu and smiled.
Lei Xiao is naturally no stranger to this point.
Only members of the royal family with the blood of the Hero King can approach the Lion King's Palace unimpeded, otherwise they will be attacked indiscriminately by the guardians of the Holy Lion.
Back then, Orr, who was still a court magician, was almost killed by the Holy Lion. Fortunately, the young Ariel appeared in time and pulled Orr back from the brink of death.
It was precisely because of this relationship that he easily conquered Orr, the ruler of Fanyin City, and further enhanced the territory's combat power.
"I have to say that the real function of the Lion King Palace is really curious."
"However, when Ariel becomes the Queen of Cold Flame, these will no longer be a secret to me."
Lei Xiao shrugged and did not continue to struggle. Instead, under Wu's guidance, he walked around the Lion King's Palace before heading to the next location.
Now that he has taken over this land that symbolizes Leng Yan's highest power, Lei Xiao naturally has to understand everything here.
After passing several large and small castles, Lei Xiao and his group finally stopped in front of the largest and most majestic castle in the back courtyard.
"Your Excellency, guest, this is Wolong Castle, the residence of the Lengyan Kingdom in the past."
Wu Qing sighed, nodded and motioned to the soldiers outside the castle courtyard to open the door, and introduced to Lei Xiao: "The unconscious old King is here now."
Having said this, Wu turned to Ariel again, caressed her chest and asked, "Your Highness, are you ready to meet the old King?"
After hearing Wu's words, Ariel bit her lip tightly, nodded heavily and said: "Uncle Wu, I am ready. Now that the power dispute in the Cold Flame Kingdom has come to an ~ I can finally Face your father directly and tell him that I am no longer the willful and cowardly little princess, and I want your father to hand over the Kingdom of Leng Yan into my hands with confidence!"
"Her Royal Highness the Princess's words are reassuring. You have indeed grown a lot and have become an emperor. Even the old ministers can hardly recognize you."
Wu Yi nodded heavily to Ariel, then walked at the front again and continued to lead the way.
Under Wu's guidance, Lei Xiao, Ariel and the main subordinates passed through the neatly manicured courtyards and gardens of the castle and walked straight into the interior of Wolong Fort.
Following the sound of empty footsteps, the group of people walked along the quaint and bright castle corridor, going around in circles, and soon came to a heavily guarded room.
"Your Excellency, please allow me to solemnly introduce that the person who lives here is the nineteenth generation king of the Cold Flame Kingdom, His Majesty the Steel Wrist King Burdett."
In the solemn words, the door of the room was opened by the two maids, causing everything inside to slowly appear in front of Lei Xiao. (End of chapter)
