Chapter 1134: The retreating dragons
Under the bright moonlight, Lei Xiao looked intently.
What appeared in Hong Si's hand this time was an extremely strange red crystal.
The crystal is in the shape of a regular square, about one meter square, with a smooth and smooth surface and a crystal clear interior.
Although it looks like a unique piece of art, the entire crystal exudes a dragon's violent aura that is very similar to Hong Si's, even more intense.
"Hong Ye, do you still recognize this thing? Although it is only a small piece, it is enough to reveal your true colors!"
Hong Si just sneered triumphantly, and his face suddenly turned extremely pale and ugly, as if he couldn't bear something.
Without any warning, a dazzling red light flashed, and when everything dimmed, Hongsi had transformed into a dragon again, floating in front of Hongye.
However, Hong Ye did not change at all, and her fair face still had that cold and indifferent look.
At this point, the situation is self-evident.
Hongsi originally wanted Hongye to appear in the shape of a dragon, but Hongye didn't respond. Instead, he was forced to return to his original shape under the influence of the square red crystal.
"how so?"
I saw Hong Ye's huge dragon claws turned up, still holding the small red crystal, but his deep voice was full of disbelief, and he said to Hong Ye in surprise: "Why have I returned to my original shape? But nothing changed?
Directly opposite Hong Si, Hong Ye just raised his eyes and glanced at Hong Si, who had transformed into a dragon, as if looking at a clown, and did not respond to the other party's words.
For a moment, the other red dragons looked at each other, and the scene was extremely embarrassing.
"Dragon, congratulations on successfully proving that my subordinate is just an ordinary human."
Although Lei Xiao didn't know what the crystal the other party took out was, he could prove from the other party's reaction that that thing did have the ability to restore the dragons in human form to their original state.
"this"
Astonished, Hongsi obviously did not give up. He stretched out the huge dragon claw holding the red crystal and waved it in front of Hongye again and again. However, it was still in vain and did not cause any reaction.
"Okay, this farce should be over."
Lei Xiao looked at Hong Si who was at a loss and said calmly: "According to the agreement just now, you should leave too. The mysterious dragon knight has already left and is no longer here with me."
Upon hearing Lei Xiao's expulsion order, Hong Si was speechless for a moment, and his giant body like a hill froze in mid-air.
After a while, Hong Si's huge dragon face suddenly became angry and frustrated, and he growled: "No, there must be something wrong somewhere!"
"The problem is actually quite simple."
Seeing that the other party was not willing to give in, Lei Xiao came up with a plan and said calmly: "The fault is neither mine nor yours, so it goes without saying."
"Human, what do you mean..."
Hong Si's golden dragon eyes turned, and he suddenly realized: "Could it be that the information I got is wrong?"
"Or someone is deliberately provoking a dispute between us."
Lei Xiao brought Hong Si's focus back to the Temple of Light and continued: "You and I have no conflict to begin with, but the other human force that gave you the information is in full-scale war with me. Do you need me to be more explicit?"
"You mean we were used as a weapon?"
Hong Si's dragon eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice gradually became deeper.
"As expected of the wise dragon clan, they are finally smart for once."
Lei Xiao nodded with a half-smile, and wrote lightly: "Do you have anything else to do?"
"Human race, maybe things are really like what you said, but no matter what, it is also true that the disobedient person once assisted you."
Even though he was extremely surprised, Hong Si naturally would not let Lei Xiao lead him around all the time, but responded: "It is true that we were a little reckless this time, so there is no need to give it away!"
After that, Hongsi spread his wings and flew high, taking the other red dragons and flying away from the sky above the royal capital.
It wasn't until the dragons completely disappeared at the end of the night sky that the oppressive atmosphere on the city wall completely dissipated, and the soldiers cheered.
His Royal Highness actually remained calm and composed in front of so many giant dragons. He is worthy of being the protector and patron saint of the Lengyan Kingdom!
"I didn't plan to send it to you originally."
Among the cheering crowd, Lei Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, although these red dragons will not become enemies of the Temple of Light because of their last words, at least they will no longer easily believe the instigation of the Temple of Light.
In other words, at least in the short term, these red dragons should not come to their door again, which is enough to buy themselves some time to concentrate on dealing with the Temple of Light.
When he frees up his hands, he will definitely fulfill his promise personally, allowing Hong Ye to soar in the sky without any worries.
"Lord, how did you do it?"
Although he was excited, Tran's face was full of doubts, and he looked at Lei Xiao doubtfully.
Needless to say, what Tran was referring to was the fact that Hong Ye did not reveal her true form.
"First stabilize the city wall completely, and then we'll talk about it after we go back."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly and nodded to Tran.
After boosting morale on the city wall and seeing that the situation had completely returned to normal, Lei Xiao led the powerful men back to the Lion's Castle.
Arriving at the secret parlor exclusive to the royal family, Hong Ye's slender figure suddenly changed completely.
The newly appeared figure was equally sassy, but compared to Hong Ye, it was a little less cold and a little more friendly. It was none other than Rose King Esther.
"Is it His Majesty the Rose King?"
When Tran and other leaders saw this, they suddenly became enlightened.
No wonder it didn't reveal its true form under the influence of the mysterious red crystal. With the strength of His Majesty the Rose King, the first human illusionist in more than a century, it was really easy to confuse those red dragons.
"Yes, that's what happened."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and told the whole story.
At the beginning of the deployment, Lei Xiao had no intention of letting Hong Ye show up. Now it seems that the decision at that time was quite wise.
"Excuse me, Your Majesty and Excellencies, now that the matter has come to an end, let's go to our respective places."
Lei Xiao clapped his hands and began to redeploy.
Except for the Landless King and the War-avoiding King who are still stationed in the royal capital, and the Holy Queen Sophia who is leading the purification work, the other kings and the powerful people of the country all went to the Sunset Fortress to assist our troops who had already set off in the evening towards the Temple of Light. advance the sphere of influence.
After Jiang Lei teleported away with all the heroic spirits, Lei Xiao, who was finally free, could take a breather.
As he picked up the tea cup, he sighed secretly in his heart.
I have to say that what happened on this day was more exciting and unforgettable than what happened since my birth before the time travel.
"I'm sorry, Lord, I have distracted you again."
The crisp sound of rustling sounded, and Hong Ye and Ariel, who had been hidden in the underground secret room of Lion Castle, walked over together and said to Lei Xiao with a look of shame on their faces: "It's all my subordinates' fault."
"How can I blame you?"
Lei Xiao put down his tea cup, nodded to Hong Ye and sat down, and immediately described what had just happened.
"Is that **** Hong Si leading the team? Sooner or later, my subordinates will tear his dragon's mouth to pieces with his own hands. This is such a hateful thing."
Hong Ye's eyebrows were furrowed and she clenched her fists loudly.
"Don't worry, I will always walk side by side with you."
Lei Xiao nodded to Hong Ye, and then asked about the mysterious red crystal with doubts on his face.
"Back to Lord, according to your description, it should be an Ancestral Dragon Blood Crystal."
Hong Ye took a deep breath, trying her best to wake up from her anger, and then explained: "I didn't expect that the other party actually took out this kind of item that can be called the dragon's treasure. It does have the ability to force subordinates to reveal themselves. "
Looking at Lei Xiao's curious expression, Hong Ye added: "The Ancestral Dragon Blood Crystal is produced from the dragon essence and blood of the first batch of ancestral dragons in the Solar Era. It has the magical ability to awaken the dragon blood. Although its subordinates have turned into human forms, But the dragon blood in the body still exists, and once the dragon blood is stimulated, it will transform into a dragon again."
"It turns out that's the case. There are really many wonders in this world."
Lei Xiao nodded suddenly, and then said seriously: "Hongye, why are they still chasing you after all these years?"
After hearing Lei Xiao's inquiry, Hong Ye was silent for a while, and then responded: "To be honest with you, Lord, the reason why they are chasing and killing their subordinates is precisely because their dragon bloodline is somewhat special..."
Speaking of this, Hong Ye's fair face showed a rare hint of sadness, obviously recalling some sad past events.
Seeing this, Ariel on the side stepped forward to comfort her. After so many battles between life and death and getting along day and night, the two had already become like sisters.
And Lei Xiao did not continue to ask. He clearly understood that now that the red dragon matter had come to an end, it would not be too late to ask again in the future.
At this moment, a voice recited, and after the call was connected, Orr's voice came over: "Lord Qi, the representatives of the Alchemist Guild are already in place."
"Come right away."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and stood up from his seat.
In the familiar royal conference hall, Lei Xiao repeated what he had just said to the mercenary guild, and it was still Xiao's words that were moved by emotion and reason.
The result was just as Lei Xiao had imagined. After a series of close cooperation and representatives listening to the opinions of alchemist branches from various places, the other party finally chose to maintain the status quo and did not fall to the side of the Temple of Light.
It's no wonder that since the blank era, the three major neutral organizations have been able to stand firm in the human world. Naturally, they are all human beings and cannot be easily used as a weapon by any party.
What's more, Lei Xiao is also one of the few major customers in the history of the Alchemist Guild. As long as it does not violate its principles, the Alchemist Guild obviously does not want to lose such a powerful financial owner.
After sending the alchemist representatives away, Lei Xiao listened to the latest reports from various places and returned to the territory to deal with daily matters, and then returned to the bedroom with Ariel.
At this point, Lei Xiao's intended goals have been completed. Next, he only has to concentrate on dealing with the behemoth of the Temple of Light.
"Lord, thank you for your hard work today."
In the elegantly decorated queen's bedroom, Ariel, who was only wearing a nightgown, was pressing Lei Xiao's shoulders and said, "If the lord hadn't arrived in time, my subordinate would have died in the Lion King Palace. "
"It's not a big deal, but the scene was really exciting."
Recalling the scene when he transformed into a krypton gold warrior, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly.
It is worth mentioning that after refining various sky-high-priced fifth-level gain potions, Lei Xiao, who had only been promoted to the fourth-level peak not long ago, already had a sense of saturation that was faintly touching the bottleneck.
Although he has not yet reached the threshold of becoming a fifth-level powerhouse, he is at least halfway to the realm of a fifth-level powerhouse.
"I didn't expect that the buffing potions would have such a permanent improvement effect. It's an unexpected harvest. After all, each of these potions is priceless."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, closed his eyes and enjoyed Ariel's strong shoulder rub.
"Lord, my subordinates and several ancestors have finished their speeches in major cities, which has stabilized the kingdom and even boosted morale. What should we do next?"
While massaging Lei Xiao carefully, Ariel raised her eyebrows and asked.
"We have eliminated all unnecessary resistance, and naturally all that is left is to deal with the Temple of Light with all our strength."
Lei Xiao frowned slightly and responded: "Currently, the Iron Hand Islands, the Dark Green Kingdom and our army have been advancing from three different directions towards the Holy Capital where the main hall of the Temple of Light is located."
"Although the Dark Green Kingdom is not the main attack, it is enough to contain many of the opponent's ~The next step depends on us and Catherine. As long as we successfully meet up at the opponent's lair, it will be the moment of decisive battle. .
After listening to Lei Xiao's words, Ariel nodded thoughtfully and said, "But my subordinates always feel that it is not that easy."
"It is indeed not that easy. With the insidiousness and cunning of King Naganilon IX, I am afraid he will do some sinister things that we did not expect. After all, no one knows the true background of the Temple of Light."
Lei Xiao's brows tightened for a moment, but then relaxed: "But don't forget, with the two allies around us, our strength has long been different from what it used to be."
"At the same time, Prince Yaoguang Lawrence, who recently joined his subordinates, is also acting according to the plan, and has even persuaded some of the Grim Kingdom to surrender their troops."
"The interrogation work of Ye Cang and others is also in progress. When the innocent priests are counted, the Holy Queen, Ju Bai and others will also communicate with them in person, tell them the truth of the matter, and transform them into us to fight against Gani. Part of Long IXs power.
When he said this, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "But the other party will definitely not be idle while we are taking action. I am afraid that a new storm will come soon, right? That will only More violent than what we have experienced before." (End of Chapter)
