Chapter 1392: The Lord's Thoughts

"What the Lord said is indeed correct. It is really a shocking sight!"

As the gate of Bingshi City was reopened, Xiao Jing's fair face was suddenly filled with surprise.

What appeared in front of her was a huge city built by the sea.

The design style of this city is quite unique. Except for the side facing the sea, huge trenches were dug on the other three sides, which were finally completely connected with the sea, forming an extremely large city-protecting sea.

With the surge of the tide, the whole city looked like a giant fortress on the sea, which was quite shocking.

It was almost dusk at this time, and two suns were seen slowly sinking towards the end of the sea level in the distance, reflecting the sparkling sea surface. Everything was covered with a layer of orange, which made this huge city surrounded by the sea look different.

"Is this the sea? It's so vast and boundless that it's shocking!"

Looking at the scene where the afterglow of the sunset and the sea intertwined, Xiao Jing's eyes were filled with more surprise, and she said excitedly: "Lord, it is said that this vast land is also surrounded by the sea. Is this true?"

"Yes, but we are not the only ones. On the other side of the world, there are countless plates that are similar to ours."

Lei Xiao touched Xiao Jing's head and responded with a smile.

After that, Lei Xiao's face was solemn again.

What he said just now was obviously contrary to common sense.

No matter how huge this planet is, there should not be so many plates. After all, the land where he is currently located is probably enough to be comparable to the land area of ​​the previous world.

In addition, he has seen this galaxy with a binary star system twice.

Although the entire planet is covered with an unknown layer similar to fog, so that he can't see the scene above, there should be a boundary after all.

However, whether from the human race, or the dwarf elves, flower elves, wood elves, tree people, dragon descendants and other forces of our side, or even the documents of the dragon race and dark elves, the records about other plates are all similar.

In these fragmentary records, they all use words such as "countless", "difficult to estimate", "countless", and even "endless", which is simply incredible.

"It is not difficult to see that this point alone is a huge unsolved mystery. As for whether it is related to the blank era, it is currently unknown."

Thinking about this, Lei Xiao gathered his mind and refocused his attention on the scene in front of him.

With the opening of the ice stone gate, the huge welcoming team of the tauren also came into view.

The silver-armored minotaur guards holding knight swords stretched from the gate of the Ice Stone City to the gate of the capital, looking extremely majestic. Behind them were ordinary minotaurs who came to greet them. They were so dense that it could be described as a sea of ​​people.

Moreover, it was obvious that the minotaurs were more prepared. With the soldiers on both sides as the boundary, they set up a towering translucent magic wall, which occasionally flashed with rich magic light.

Not only that, on the majestic wall behind, there were also Lei Xiao's exclusive magic shadow lord flags hanging, which were rustling in the wind.

"Your Majesty, this is the highest etiquette for the minotaurs to welcome the king, and this time the pomp is even more exaggerated than that of ordinary kings."

The accompanying flower fairy queen Fanny's starry eyes flashed with surprise, and she said to Lei Xiao: "The magic walls on both sides not only play a defensive role, but also a symbol of the supremacy of the king's power."

As soon as Fanny's voice fell, the noble welcoming team headed by the middle-aged minotaur general had already come to meet him.

"Greetings to Your Majesty, Your Majesty, May Your Majesty be safe!"

The middle-aged minotaur general knelt on the ground, protected the horns on his head with both hands, and saluted to Lei Xiao, and tens of thousands of other minotaurs present also made the same action, and lowered their heads to Lei Xiao together.

You know, the minotaurs are tall and muscular. Ordinary people can match the size of Tiger Staff, and they are even more burly than the trolls. Even if they kneel on the ground, they are much taller than Fanny and even Broy. It can be seen that the scene of tens of thousands of minotaurs bowing down is undoubtedly quite spectacular.

Lei Xiao looked down at the scene and nodded slightly, saying: "Please stand up. The past is gone. From this moment on, we will walk side by side and welcome a new future together."

It goes without saying how the whole scene boiled after hearing the voice. Although Lei Xiao's words were brief, they contained a very important message, that is, Lei Xiao was not going to punish them, but regarded them as his own children!

This is undoubtedly an unimaginable thing for them who are used to the various fierce methods of the previous minotaur king! The enlightenment and kindness of His Majesty the Human Race flattered them.

"But please remember one thing, I will never allow any force to stop me from moving forward. Your former king did this, and now he is dead."

Lei Xiao's eyes became sharper, and then he became gentle again. He smiled at the middle-aged minotaur general who had just stood up and said, "Let's go."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged minotaur immediately touched his chest and saluted, and began to lead the way.

Looking at the other party's fearful look, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

Through the previous meeting and the understanding from others, he already knew it.

The middle-aged Tauren general who bowed his head to him was called Bruno. His command ability and strength were both quite good, and he was also one of the best generals among the Taurens.

Because of this, although he had no extravagant thoughts, he was still feared by the previous Tauren King and almost became a discarded chess piece.

For himself, this problem obviously did not exist. Whether it was his lavish spending or his talents and many other means, they were enough to make them loyal and unwavering.

"Of course, if we can subdue these sixth-level strongmen, that would be the best. Unfortunately, the level of the recruitment order required is too high. I don't have a stable way to obtain it now. I hope to solve this problem as soon as possible."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao brought his thoughts back to reality.

Under Bruno's introduction, Lei Xiao met several members of the Tauren royal family one after another, but there were no older princes, only some young bulls.

This is no wonder. With the violent temper of the previous Tauren King, he naturally would not allow any obstacles to exist in front of his throne.

"Then the matter couldn't be simpler. As long as a new king comes up, and with Bruno's help, everything will be solved."

Thinking so, Lei Xiao set his eyes on the young minotaur royals and began to look them up and down.

These cows are not the descendants of the previous minotaur kings, but the families of the deceased princes. They are undoubtedly the best choice.

However, since these young minotaurs are about the same height, their horns have not yet formed, not to mention their hairy brown faces, Lei Xiao looked at them for a long time and couldn't see the difference. It was difficult to distinguish them at all.

But after noticing Lei Xiao's gaze, the young minotaur princes and princesses all looked very nervous, as if they were afraid that the human emperor in front of them would twist their horns off.

"Forget it, let Bruno introduce them again later."

Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, and had already passed the giant suspension bridge in front of the minotaur city and entered the city gate.

As soon as he entered the interior of the city, a salty smell came to his face.

The shops on both sides of the street are full of various seafood, which looks quite prosperous. Many shops even have rows of dried fish hanging in front of them.

This is not bad, after all, this place is close to the sea, and even surrounded by sea water, so it is not surprising that this situation occurs.

"As you can see, Your Majesty, this Wuji City is mainly based on fishing, not only in the near sea, we also have perfect deep-sea fishing capabilities, enough to compete with various magical beasts below the fifth level in the sea. In history, we have even hunted the sixth-level magic fish dragon."

Bruno's voice was full of pride, and he introduced: "I believe Your Majesty has also understood that in addition to the power on the ground, we also have an extremely good sea force, which is a force that a considerable number of foreign forces do not have."

Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

Just as the other party said, a considerable number of forces in the Outer Domain have almost no maritime power. One reason is that their sphere of influence is inland, and the other reason is that even if they are close to the coast, they generally have few warships, such as wood elves and dragon descendants.

As for the specific reasons, there are many. From a military perspective, most forces are mainly land-based and rarely build large cities near the coast. Even if they enter the other party's territory, it is not very meaningful. Moreover, if the other party uses a long-range group attack spell, it is easy to destroy a fleet. After all, the fleet is very limited on the sea.

From a trade perspective, the emergence of the Shadow Market is enough to promote trade between various forces to the greatest extent.

Furthermore, the sea in the Outer Domain is extremely dangerous. Various high-level marine monsters emerge in an endless stream, and their bodies are also extremely huge. They can be called the nemesis of merchant ships. They often go there without returning. To protect merchant ships, it is necessary to invest a lot of resources and energy to build a fleet and cultivate corresponding talents. The cost-effectiveness is obviously not high, and supply is also very troublesome.

In this case, it is better to send strong men to travel a thousand miles on the ground. After all, the storage rings in the outer domain have a larger capacity and can hold more goods.

In short, under the influence of various complex factors, it is not surprising that this situation occurs.

"Although from various aspects, building a fleet is indeed not the choice of most forces, but for me, the situation is completely different."

Lei Xiao's eyes revealed a trace of solemnity, thinking in his heart.

The reason why I think so is to deal with future encounters with other plates.

Although I don't know what form this encounter will take, once our side and the other side are no longer far away, but far beyond the distance that can be reached by other means, that huge fleet will undoubtedly play a very huge role.

Not only that, according to the information left by Wang Xi and the speculation of Hui Lao and others, the catastrophe crack is also likely to appear in the sea area of ​​the human territory. If you want to discover and respond in time, the fleet is also indispensable.

"So, it is very necessary to build a fleet. At present, I have been seizing the time to prepare in the human territory, and even put a lot of lord talents to use. With the addition of the minotaurs, everything will undoubtedly become smoother. After all, most of the human seas are relatively calm, and they lack experience in dealing with huge ocean monsters."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao simply described the role of the fleet to Bruno and others, but only said that it would deal with important challenges in the future, without explaining the specific reasons.

"I didn't expect that His Majesty of the human race is so far-sighted, which makes us admire him very much!"

Bruno's face immediately showed a touch of reverence, and he said without hesitation: "If you need anything, please let your Majesty know!"

After that, Bruno described the details of the fleet in detail.

The Minotaur Fleet is mainly composed of two third-level elite legions. Although this seems insignificant on the ground, it is already a very impressive force on the sea.

Following Bruno's introduction, Lei Xiao and his party walked along the clean and humid streets of the city and finally stopped in front of a giant castle that was also very distinctive.

The layout here is very similar to the castle in Shuiyue City. It is located on a spacious lake island, but judging from the salty smell coming from the front, it is more appropriate to call it an island.

Under Bruno's guidance, Lei Xiao turned into the corridor through the magnificent castle hall and soon came to the King's Hall.

Sitting on the throne, the first thing Lei Xiao did was to confirm the heir to the throne.

After the introduction of Bruno and other Minotaur ministers, Lei Xiao finally set his sights on a young Minotaur prince.

His father was once the commander of the Minotaur naval fleet. More than a decade ago, he and his flagship disappeared in the open sea. It was said that he encountered a sixth-level monster, but someone accidentally saw the remains of the Minotaur king that should have been buried in the sea. The result is naturally self-evident.

After Lei Xiao's signal, Bruno and others naturally cooperated with all their strength and quickly finalized everything about the ceremony. The Minotaur prince was also grateful to Lei Xiao and knelt on the ground repeatedly.

After all, the human youth in front of him not only helped him complete his revenge, but also put on the crown of the king for him. How could he not be grateful?

Then, Lei Xiao followed the usual practice and deployed cooperation matters such as the establishment of a portal, and carried out a comprehensive upgrade in the shocking eyes that were commonplace.

The Tauren's foundation is stronger than the Trolls. The two together are enough to give the human race 10 more third-level legions.

Of course, the most important thing is that Lei Xiao was also satisfied to see the awe-inspiring expressions of the Tauren when they looked at him as if they were worshiping gods.

But just when Lei Xiao finished everything and was about to return to Ice Stone City, he saw Bruno's ears trembling slightly, obviously receiving a magic communication, and his expression quickly became extremely ugly.
