Chapter 1149: Lords and Thoughts on the Wall

The sun was shining brightly, the sky was blue, and the sky was peaceful.

On the ground, it was a completely different scene.

I saw a lot of traffic on a quaint street. Although it looked a bit crowded, it was orderly.

People carried their luggage in large and small packages and hurried out of the city.

The creaking carriage splashed gravel on the roadside and scared away a few warblers that were resting on the rafters.

"Pious believers of the Kingdom of Grim, the brave and righteous His Highness the Holy Lion Prince, in order to fight against the evil King Ganelon IX who attempts to pull the Temple of Light into the abyss, he will not hesitate to take risks and lead the division of benevolence and righteousness to save you. How great and noble is the gradually declining Temple of Light!"

Among the bustling crowd, a young pastor wearing a holy white robe was holding a sacred book and was speaking impassionedly.

His voice was extremely loud, and a small golden magic circle was rotating on his white neck, which was obviously a kind of amplification spell.

"Praise His Highness the Holy Lion Prince! He dares to face the bottomless abyss of evil, he dares to face the unspeakable source of darkness. He will eventually bring dawn to the human world, and will eventually return the Temple of Light controlled by the devil. Light, play the music of triumph!"

"Praise His Highness the Holy Lion Prince! This is a hymn about courage, this is a hymn for the human world! His Highness the Holy Lion Prince will compose a new legend and bring true light to the human world again!"

The young pastor's voice became louder and louder, and he continued: "Pious believers, do not be deceived by the whispers of the devil. The light disguised by the devil is just the prelude to evil, and the finale is only destruction and death!"

"Naganelon IX is just a demon wearing an angel mask, and His Royal Highness the Holy Lion Prince, who has a bright heart, is described by the devil as a devil. But please remember, His Royal Highness the Holy Lion Prince will eventually tear apart the devil's mask with his own hands. Destroy the evil temple filled with filth and blood!"

"Only by following the footsteps of His Highness the Holy Lion Prince, can we share his glory, gain his protection, and never fall!"

After praising Lei Xiao, the young priest began to help the soldiers on both sides of the street with the Grimm royal crest engraved on their chests to maintain order. These soldiers were the soldiers under Lawrence's command.

"Please leave the city in an orderly manner, so that you will not become a slave puppet controlled by King Ganelon IX, and you will not become a bloodthirsty evil creature that has lost its senses. His Royal Highness the Holy Lion Prince will provide you with food, accommodation and shelter. , until our homeland is shrouded in light again!

Among the dense crowds of people leaving the city, there was not just one such priest, but they were scattered on every block. These priests were naturally the innocent priests who were deceived by Ganelon.

With the priests' speeches and the fact that the soldiers who entered the city to maintain order were all descendants of the Kingdom of Grim, everything went very smoothly and there was almost no chaos.

On the city gate at the end of the quaint block, a young man, surrounded by Lawrence and many other Grim Kingdom generals, looked down at the people who were leaving the city in an orderly manner, and nodded slightly.

Needless to say, this is Lei Xiao who has been praised to the heavens by the priests.

Lei Xiao's ears had already been scratched by the praises from the priests, and he was already used to it.

In the final analysis, this is just a way to increase his reputation, and Lei Xiao himself doesn't feel much about it.

If this can help him get rid of Ganelon IX as soon as possible to some extent, then he doesn't mind expanding the priest team and further strengthening the offensive.

After watching quietly for a while, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

Three more days and nights have passed since the night when Antonio's mission was handed over.

During this period of time, both our and Catherine's armies' strategy of first joining forces in King Grim's capital, and the repair of the energy-gathering array in "Ice Stone City" were all progressing smoothly.

Putting aside everything else, judging from the siege of the city in the past few days, it was still a little too smooth, even mixed with weirdness.

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but frown slightly.

This city is called Sturt City, and it is not far away from the capital of King Grim.

Currently, the Grim generals headed by Lawrence are following the scheduled plan to evacuate the residents in the city to the purified area outside the central area to prevent being controlled by Ganelon IX.

However, although everything seemed to be going on in an orderly manner, after several days of investigation, Lei Xiao discovered that things were not that simple.

First of all, although the defenders of these cities in the central region are stronger than at the beginning, they are limited to this. They are not as strong as imagined, and they are still almost defeated at the first touch.

It stands to reason that this place is already very close to the opponent's royal capital, so the new king should never be so neglectful of defense.

Secondly, all the branches of the Temple of Light in the city were still closed in advance. Not to mention helping to defend the city, not even a shadow of a strong man was seen.

Finally, and the most critical point, after checking the household registration of each city, it was found that a large number of missing residents appeared in the cities along the way, and no one knew where they had gone.

So much so that many villages around the city seemed to have evaporated out of thin air, disappearing without a trace at some point.

"Your Highness, are you thinking about those residents who disappeared strangely?"

Lawrence noticed something strange about Lei Xiao, and immediately took a step forward and said: "According to my investigation, these residents not only disappeared after we came here, but many of them disappeared before."

Since there were other Grim generals around, Lawrence still called Lei Xiao by his superficial title.

His old face with deep crow's feet was full of solemnity, and he continued: "I have carefully questioned several surrendered city lords. Although the city lords have reported the matter to the royal family many times, in the end it was nothing. Even though we know what happened, various investigations have made no progress.

"The situation is very obvious. It must be King Ganelon IX. It is impossible for others to hide this from these powerful city lords."

Lei Xiao's brows furrowed even more, and he muttered: "The population is huge, and we don't know whether they are alive or dead. If all of them are turned into puppet soldiers by Ganelon IX, it will be a great threat to us. "

"What His Highness the Prince said is absolutely true, especially those transformed black mist soldiers on the battlefield of Sunset Fortress. They are almost immune to any attack. Although they will eventually die automatically, when they are crazy, they are simply nightmare-like existences."

Lawrence had already understood the recent battlefield situation and echoed: "On the other hand, if we can rescue these innocent residents, it will also be of great help to our reputation."

"No matter what, we must not let it go."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and ordered: "Go down and search for some suspicious clues with all your strength. Don't let go of any clues. In addition, don't let up on the investigation of the Temple of Light."

"As you command, Your Highness."

Lawrence stroked his chest and saluted, and found that Lei Xiao's frown still hadn't relaxed.

Seeing this, the old prince immediately asked again: "Your Highness, you seem to have something on your mind?"

"Yes, don't you think this is still going too smoothly?"

Lei Xiao walked slowly on the top of the city and frowned.

"Indeed, the new king Hall has a violent and strong personality. Logically speaking, he should never give up the city so easily. There must be some clues in this."

Lawrence nodded and echoed: "I believe that Ganelon IX is also behind this."

"Is the other party going to abandon the royal capital?"

Lei Xiao gently rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "This is simply unbelievable."

"I don't understand. The strength of Grim King's capital ranks among the top among the human nations. There are countless murderous magic traps in it. Even if we gather all our forces to attack with all our strength, it will be difficult to defeat them in a short time. Break through the royal capitals absolute defensive barrier.

Lawrence's old face was full of contemplation, and he said: "In this case, if the Royal Capital desperately supports our footsteps, and the Holy Capital sends troops to attack from both sides, and the two form an horn, I am afraid that we will be in an extremely passive position. , this is much better than giving up on the king."

"So, it is very likely that the new king has concentrated all his power in the royal capital, intending to wait for reinforcements from King Ganelon IX."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and asked again: "Is there any latest news from King Grim?"

"Back to Your Highness, no."

Lawrence shook his head helplessly and responded: "When Saint King William left, King Grim used an absolute defense barrier to completely blockade it. Not only were outsiders unable to enter, but the people inside could not get out either. The news was also blocked by the interference barrier."

"Although I have many informants in the royal capital, I have lost contact with them all for a long time."

After hearing Lawrence's response, Lei Xiao held his chin with one hand and focused his attention on the residents leaving the city again.

Not only Lawrence's informants, but also the spies of the Cold Flame Kingdom had all lost contact, and the scouts who had been sent out were all blocked outside the city, unable to detect the situation in the opponent's capital.

In other words, we have no idea what the current state of the other side's royal capital is. It is exactly the same as the holy capital that has been isolated from the world for hundreds of years.

"That's all, when we arrive at the city, or even attack the royal capital, everything will become clear."

Lei Xiao did not continue to struggle. After instructing Lawrence and others to continue escorting the residents away, he walked towards Jiangli not far away. The latter had just deployed a space beacon to improve the situation. Huge transmission network.

As he moved forward, Lei Xiao still looked thoughtful.

From the current situation, it is not difficult to see that Ganelon IX and his group are obviously brewing some kind of conspiracy, and the royal capital not far away must be the starting point of the **** storm.

So before that, it is my final preparation time.

As Lei Xiao thought, another trace of doubt appeared on his solemn face.

In addition, there is another point that makes me extremely concerned.

That is, he has sent powerful men many times to search carefully in the surrounding mountains where alien lords often haunt.

However, no trace of an alien lord was found in the huge Kingdom of Grim, and even the ruins of the destroyed lord's mansion were rarely seen.

You must know that in inaccessible areas such as the Lengyan Kingdom, there are a large number of alien lords, otherwise Lei Xiao would not have discovered Su Ru, Su Mo, Qin Qian, Feng Ling, Zhao Lu, Zhou Wu and others one after another.

"About this matter, I once asked Qin Qian in detail and learned that at the beginning, the lords in the Grim Kingdom area were still very active."

"But as time goes by, there are fewer and fewer lords here. Many lords are even like those local villages that suddenly disappeared. They disappeared together with their territories overnight and can no longer be contacted."

"What's even more weird is that most of these disappeared lords are still in a state of survival, but they don't respond to any messages, as if they have passively lost all communication functions."

Thinking of this, a bad thought came to Lei Xiao's mind.

According to Lawrence, at that time, under the orders of Holy King William, the attitude of the Kingdom of Grim towards the alien lords was much gentler than that of the fallen nobles of the Kingdom of Cold Flame. UU Reading www.uukashu.net rarely did Taking the initiative to attack and even treat him with courtesy is obviously not in line with William's violent temper.

If this was all premeditated, or even ordered by Ganelon IX, then everything would make sense.

"If you think about it carefully, the missing lords have lost their communication function inexplicably. They are similar to the strong men of the Black Abyss Brotherhood who cannot tell the truth. It is very likely that some kind of curse has been imposed on them. Is it really Ganelon? The black hand extended by the Ninth World behind the scenes? But what is the purpose of the other party's arrest of the lords of other worlds? "

Lei Xiao's eyebrows were twisted into a knot, and the confusion on his face became more obvious.

You know, as the lords have been coming for longer and longer, some of the unique magical functions of the lords have begun to be known to local dignitaries and even ordinary people.

If Ganelon IX is really using these functions for some purpose, then the situation of the lords will be extremely bad.

"This matter is not only related to the lives of many lords, but also related to the direction of the future war situation. After all, the other party must be brewing something, and this is why the lords take action."

"No matter what, this matter must be put first. I must find some clues as soon as possible to trace the traces of the missing lords."

After making up his mind, Lei Xiao started talking and fully planned the matter.

After everything was completed, Lei Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and came to Jiang Li's side.

After Thor and the other heroic spirits captured this place, they immediately headed to the next city without stopping. Now that the place had stabilized, it was time for him to go to the next city to have a look.

After informing Jiang Li of his destination, a light gray light flashed past, and Lei Xiao's figure disappeared in an instant.

In another flash, he had already appeared far away from St City.
