Chapter 1430: Determination and Method
Tick, tick, tick.
The turbid water drops on the dirty wall dripped onto a fair and delicate face. The coolness made her slowly open her eyes. The unique pair of pale golden vertical pupils were first full of confusion, and then quickly turned into caution and tension. She began to look around with her body.
She was no one else but Dana.
Although she had lost almost all the characteristics of the dragon race, making Dana look no different from humans, she would still show the dragon race's excellent night vision pupils in the dark, so as to better observe the surrounding situation.
The dim candlelight not far away was swaying, reflecting the outlines of rows of metal fences. Dana's heart quickly sank to the bottom of the valley, and the whole body was filled with coldness.
Because she found that she was imprisoned alone in an old dungeon without sunlight, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood and rot, which was almost nauseating.
After roughly figuring out her situation, the young queen did not panic, but tried to calm down and began to recall the last scene she remembered in her mind.
It was the early morning when the leaves were covered with dewdrops. Even the warblers were curled up in their nests and had not yet woken up. Davis and I had inspected the last spy base and were on the way back to the forest fortress.
But not long after flying out, I felt dizzy and the energy flow in my body was completely stagnant, and then I fainted.
"Did we encounter an ambush by a magic trap? I was so careless."
Dana rubbed her still groggy head and quickly figured out the whole story.
"By the way, where is my brother? Where are the other soldiers of the Royal Guard?"
A trace of anxiety surged on her fair face, and she began to look around again.
On the other side of the dim candlelight, a human figure appeared there crookedly.
The other party was chained to the wall of the dungeon, and was completely motionless.
"Nette? How are you?"
Dina's pupils widened, and she quickly recognized that the human figure was one of her outstanding strongmen, a brave and loyal captain of the guard.
But no matter how much Dina's urgent voice sounded in the dungeon, the human figure still did not move, and even the wing membrane behind it drooped to the ground, obviously it had been completely torn apart.
"Hehe, so that guy's name is Nette? He is really a tough guy. I just want to ask some information about the lord of the alien world, but he didn't say a word."
A sudden cold voice sounded on the side of Dina's cage, and the latter's expression immediately froze. She turned her head subconsciously, and a strange and burly figure with a murderous aura all over her body came into view.
Dina can be completely sure that there was no one there just now.
"Who are you?"
Dana stared at the other person with her starry eyes. Just as she was about to stand up, she felt her feet sink and she collapsed to the ground again.
It was not until this moment that Dana realized that her ankles were wrapped with heavy chains engraved with strange runes, and the energy in her body was inexplicably consumed, and she could not mobilize even a little bit.
"That is an energy loss prison chain, made of extremely rare high-grade meteorite, assisted by special forbidden runes. It is said to be created by a fallen dwarf race, specifically to control the hostile elf strongmen. The effect of something produced by a first-class force is obvious."
The emotionless teasing sounded, and the strange burly figure looked down at Dana from a high position, sneering: "How is it? Your Majesty, who just recovered from a serious illness, didn't expect that you would be imprisoned? How does it feel to be reborn and fall into the abyss?"
"Don't talk to yourself there, your words will not have any effect, and I will never say anything about the human majesty."
Dana looked fearless, looking directly at the darkness covered by the dark gray hood of the other party. Although she couldn't see the face that the other party deliberately covered, Dana could clearly feel that a pair of gloomy and terrifying eyes were staring at her closely.
"You who have the blood of the dragon clan are indeed very capable of resisting mental attacks, and even small physical means can hardly pry open your mouths."
The burly figure with a murderous aura glanced at the body with thousands of holes hanging on the wall, and then looked at Dana again, grinning: "What about your brother?"
"You bastard, what did you do to my brother?"
Dana gritted her teeth and questioned.
"Want to know the details?"
The voice of the burly figure became grim again, and he said cunningly: "If you tell me some information about the lord of the alien world, maybe I will meet your request."
"Don't even think about it! How can the human king be someone you can get involved with?"
Dana snorted without hesitation: "I have the blood of the glorious royal family flowing in my body, how can I succumb to a guy like you who can't see the light? Brother Wang will never bow to you!"
"It seems that both Prince Zhan Yi and you are really stubborn. You are just a trace of blood, but you really think you are the arrogant dragon clan?"
The voice of the burly figure was obviously much colder, and he said disdainfully: "Forget it, according to the information I have, you are just the vanguard of the lord of the alien world, and it is impossible for you to have any core information."
"Don't even think about provoking the relationship between us and the human king. The greatness of that adult is simply beyond your imagination!"
Dana's voice was neither humble nor arrogant, and she snorted coldly: "Your conspiracy will never succeed!"
"Haha, that alien lord is indeed curious."
I saw the palm of the burly figure also covered in the sleeve robe gently raised, and a sixth-level long sword exuding rich splendor emerged, making the entire dark dungeon shine instantly.
"This kind of magical weapon is the plaything of those first-rate forces. How can it be a treasure that a third-rate force like you can obtain?"
There was a hint of playfulness in the voice of the burly figure, and he said coldly: "In addition, there are actually sixth-level armors and several other sixth-level equipment, and there are even many sixth-level magic potions and magic scrolls. When did he become so wealthy? The lord from another world must be behind it, right? The truth behind this is really curious."
"But don't worry. Once I defeat the alien lord and cut off his wings, everything will come to light."
After saying that, the hostility around the burly figure became more intense, and he began to laugh unbridled.
"As I said just now, your conspiracy will never succeed!"
Seeing the other party holding the precious long sword given to her by Lei Xiao and being so unscrupulous, Dana began to tremble all over, but she still gritted her teeth and said firmly: "Even if I die, I will never let you threaten me." To your human majesty!”
"You stupid thing, you haven't reacted yet? From the moment you are trapped here, the alien lord is already in disaster."
The laughter of the burly figure became more and more arrogant, and he said with a sinister smile: "According to the clues I deliberately left, I guess the alien lord will soon invade the border for the sake of this group of trash like you, right? By then, there will be something good The play is on."
"Are you from the Deserted Sand Alliance? Do you want to provoke a dispute between us and the Rainforest Fortress Alliance so that you can benefit from it?!"
Dana was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized it and blurted out: "No, it is not impossible that the Rainforest Fortress Alliance deliberately left clues of its own to confuse the public. Are you a member of the Rainforest Fortress Alliance or a member of the Deserted Sand Alliance? ?”
"We don't need to worry about a waste like you. It won't be long before you can meet the alien lord here. Before that, it doesn't matter if I spare your life."
The burly figure glanced at Dana with disdain, then swayed and disappeared into the dark and damp dungeon.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty the Human Race, it's me who has dragged everyone down."
Dana sat on the ground with a sad face. After looking at her personal guard captain again, she finally couldn't help but sob softly.
…
At the same time, in the King's Hall of the Lion's Castle, they heard that Lei Xiao had summoned the talkers of the Rainforest Fortress Alliance and the Deserted Sand Alliance at the same time. The eager people couldn't help but be curious and pricked up their ears.
"It is true that we have no intersection with the other party, and the other party's sudden increase in troops has already created hostility towards us. What's more, the two are incompatible. Under such circumstances, this is indeed an extremely difficult thing."
Lei Xiao casually placed the baton next to the sand table and said loudly: "However, there is a way to do this easily, and that is to have another force come forward to call, and the other party will never refuse."
"Another force?"
Hanershu nodded thoughtfully and said, "Is it the second-rate force on the other side of these two alliance forces? With their obviously stronger appeal, it is indeed possible to do this."
"But despite the relative calm in recent decades, the two alliance forces are also not friendly with the neighboring second-rate forces."
Fanny tilted her head and echoed: "Furthermore, it is difficult to even contact us on the other side, let alone those more distant second-rate forces."
Hearing the sound, the other strong men on our side also nodded, obviously not understanding the meaning of Lei Xiao's words just now.
So far, there are a total of two non-third-rate forces that we have good relations with, one is the red dragon, and the other is the light half-elf, but there is no news about the former yet, and the latter is following the light elves to confront the dark elves. Judging from the current situation, assistance from both is not yet available.
"You are right. We have just stepped into the depths of the outer world and we do still lack friends. However, there is an old friend with a transcendent status that you have not considered. That is where my confidence lies."
Lei Xiao smiled slightly and reminded again.
"Lord, are you talking about the cinephile market?"
This time, Ariel reacted quickly and blurted out.
After hearing Ariel's words, everyone suddenly became enlightened.
Whether it was in the Mutated Storm, the Battle of the Dragon's Lair, or on many battlefields, the Cinematic Market has fully assisted us, but its managers are extremely mysterious and have almost never participated in meetings. Didn't think of it.
In short, although I don’t know what kind of agreement the human majesty reached with the administrator to be able to drive such a transcendent existence, what is certain is that the other party is obviously on our side!
"I see, if it's a cinephile market, it's really not difficult to do this!"
Broy's eyes lit up and he echoed: "After all, the Movie Market has always been an absolutely fair and just existence. Needless to say, it has a good reputation and it is difficult to arouse the other party's suspicion!"
"That's right, let's start taking action immediately."
Since all the powerful people present were his own, Lei Xiao had no scruples and contacted the manager directly.
Not long after, the manager's voice reached everyone's ears through the communication stone of Ice Stone City, and then through the loudspeaker: "Your Majesty, if you have anything to do, just ask me."
Before that, since Lei Xiao took the time to inform the managers of our current progress, the managers naturally had more trust in Lei Xiao. After all, as Lei Xiao's power became stronger, the managers had more hope of improving their rankings. Larger and closer to the front.
One of the important indicators for improving rankings is how much response from foreign forces can be obtained and how much benefit can be obtained from it. This is undoubtedly a great thing for managers who have reached the end of their rope.
In other words, although the managers who have been monitored by the Market Brotherhood to a considerable extent cannot appear to be working for us on the surface, they have actually already stood closely with us.
"Your Excellency, Manager, I will get right to the point."
Lei Xiao was not polite and just described the whole story.
"It's really outrageous that something like this happened. Your Majesty is right. Once you find the mastermind behind the scenes, you will never let him off lightly!"
After listening to Lei Xiao's words, the manager responded without any hesitation: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Since it is your Majesty's request, it is my duty to do so."
Having said that, the manager's voice showed a touch of embarrassment again, and added: "It's just that your Majesty must also know something about it. The current coverage is limited to the south of the Fluorescent Rift Valley, and the two alliances The coverage is too far, so the only way is to send a personal invitation.”
"But I really don't have much interaction with the other party. If I send it directly with an ordinary type of personal invitation letter for an ordinary market, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve the results expected by His Majesty."
At this point, the manager quickly added: "But please don't worry, Your Majesty, I have a way to implement your Majesty's plan smoothly!"
"Your Excellency, the manager, it's okay."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and continued to listen to the other party's words.
"Your Majesty, that is to hold a large-scale cinephile market far beyond the ordinary scale, and let the other party take the initiative to send it to your door."
There was a bit of excitement in the manager's voice, and he added: "And His Majesty is the mastermind behind all this!" (End of Chapter)
