Chapter 486: The Great War Is Imminent

"Ju Baiqing, what is the solution?"

Hearing the sound, Ariel was overjoyed and asked quickly.

"Returning to Your Royal Highness, the main reason why Old General Bai's injuries are very serious is that most of the energy circuits in his body were forcibly shattered by Ao Gu and others."

Ju Bai sighed softly, and responded: "In such a serious situation, not only will it take several years or even ten years of careful recuperation before it can recover, but also its own strength will be restricted to a considerable extent."

Speaking of this, Ju Bai hesitated for a moment, and continued: "But it is not impossible for Old General Bai to recover quickly."

"Ju Baiqing, you don't have to breathe so hard at this time, just say it!"

Ariel's star pupils flickered, and she asked eagerly.

"Going back to Her Royal Highness, the method is actually very simple."

Jubai nodded to Ariel, stroked her chest and responded, "As long as you can find a potion that has the effect of repairing the energy circuit."

After listening to the conversation between Ariel and Ju Bai, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

The energy circuit that Ju Bai mentioned is exactly the meridian, that is to say, Bai Lao has suffered a very serious internal injury now.

"That's right, how could I forget that!"

Ariel's clear starry eyes lit up, and she immediately cupped her hands, and three delicate red brocade boxes appeared on her palms.

She opened the brocade box and said excitedly: "These are three third-order Ode to Emerald Pills, which happen to have the effect of repairing the energy circuit!"

"Your Highness, this is exactly what I was hesitating just now."

Ju Bai shook his head helplessly, and added: "Old General Bai's injury is extremely serious, and the old general himself is a powerful fourth-order peak expert, and the effect that third-order potions can play is extremely limited. Just being able to shorten the recovery period a little bit."

"This is a bit difficult..."

Ariel's willow eyebrows that were originally raised suddenly drooped down, with a look of embarrassment that she didn't know what to do.

As the fifth princess of Leng Yan, she clearly understood.

In the most secret potion vaults in the royal castle, there are indeed quite a few Tier 4 healing potions.

But only her father himself has the right to enter those potion warehouses.

After all, Tier 4 potion is extremely precious, and it can undoubtedly be called the most important item in the royal family besides the Suppressing Divine Weapon.

And she has at most a third-tier potion on her body, and there is no higher-tier potion.

The most important thing is that judging from the current chaos in the capital, it is obviously unrealistic to successfully obtain a fourth-order healing potion, not to mention that her father is still in a coma .

Furthermore, as the saying goes, water from far away cannot quench thirst from near. Even if he tried his best to obtain Tier 4 potion elsewhere, I am afraid that this fortress has already been captured by the Holy Night Army.

Looking at Ariel's at a loss, Bai Laoqiang resisted the tearing feeling that kept gushing out of his body, and smiled: "Your Highness, your kind old minister appreciates it, but how can the fourth-order healing potion be able to treat it?" Randomly obtained things? Please don’t worry about it, Your Highness the Princess.”

After finishing speaking, Bai Lao shook his head helplessly.

You must know that the value of a Tier 4 healing potion is at least ten times that of equipment of the same class, and it is a precious item of tens of millions of Golden Dragons.

Such a high price is definitely an astronomical figure that is out of reach even for him who is a general of the kingdom and has a distinguished title.

"By the way, that guy must have a way!"

Ariel's clear eyes lit up, and she leaned in front of Lei Xiao again, with a look of anticipation on her face.

After going through this series of dangerous incidents, Ariel would subconsciously think of Lei Xiao almost whenever she encountered a problem.

"Dear Your Highness the Fifth Princess, is that what you mean?"

Lei Xiao, who was already prepared, raised his eyebrows, and an exquisite brocade box that made people feel surrounded by a strange fragrance appeared in the palm of his hand before the lid was opened.

As Lei Xiao slowly opened the lid of the box, a refreshing and rich fragrance immediately poured into the nostrils of everyone present, making people feel like a spring breeze.

"Sure enough, it's a Tier 4 healing potion!"

Looking at the crystal clear round potion in Lei Xiao's palm, his orange starry eyes lit up, and he blurted out immediately.

"This is indeed a Tier 4 healing potion."

Lei Xiao looked calm and began to explain: "This potion is called Holy Light Angel Pill, which has the functions of repairing energy circuits, increasing qi and blood, detoxifying all kinds of poisons, removing blood stasis and rejuvenating, and removing abnormalities below the fourth level. status effect."

Needless to say, this potion was upgraded from the loot that Lei Xiao got from No. 9 man in black not long ago.

After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao handed the potion to Ariel without hesitation, and said flatly, "Just take it."

"But……"

Ariel took Lei Xiao's Holy Light Angel Pill in a hurry, and couldn't help being stunned.

As Leng Yan's fifth princess, she naturally knew how valuable this item was.

While being extremely happy in her heart, Ariel said seriously: "As a royal family, I naturally don't owe favors at will. What do you want in return?"

"Then give me the three Tier 3 potions in your hand."

Lei Xiao shrugged and responded lightly.

This fourth-order Holy Light Angel Pill was upgraded from the Ode to Emergence Pill in Ariel's hands.

Therefore, no matter in terms of the importance of Bailao, or in terms of replenishing inventory, this is obviously a surefire thing.

"This is enough?"

Ariel was taken aback again, and a hint of doubt and surprise suddenly appeared on her fair face.

You know, even if you add up to ten Ode to Emergence Pills, you may not be able to exchange for a higher-level Holy Light Angel Pill.

"Bring it to you."

Lei Xiao didn't say anything else, and directly put the three potions in Ariel's hand into his bag, and said lightly: "The most important thing is to treat the old general Bai now, and we can talk about other things later."

"I owe you a favor!"

Ariel nodded solemnly, and immediately brought Jubai to Bailao, and continued the treatment.

Meanwhile, Lei Xiao, who was at the side, had already started upgrading the three new potions.

[Congratulations, your "Tier 3 Potion: Ode to Emerald Pill" has been upgraded to "Tier 4 Potion: Holy Light Angel Pill"! 】

[Congratulations, your "Tier 3 Potion: Ode to Emerald Pill" has been upgraded to 100 "Tier 3 Potion: Ode to Emergence Pill"! 】

[Congratulations, your "Tier 3 Potion: Ode to Emerald Pill" has been upgraded to "Tier 4 Potion: Holy Light Angel Pill"! 】

"That's right, one was consumed, and not only did I get two back, but I also got a hundred Ode to Emerald Pills."

"The most important thing is to make my dear Fifth Princess and Old General Bai owe me a favor."

Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, thinking to himself: "In the whole world, there is simply no more suitable business than this."

Then, Lei Xiao noticed.

Not long after taking the Holy Light Angel Pill, with the continuous refining and the effect of the medicine, the haggard look on the old face of Bai Lao, who was sitting cross-legged, obviously began to fade.

Correspondingly, the momentum emanating from his body is also rising at a steady speed.

The potion, which is called a miracle, is indeed very effective, just like a rotten tree blooming.

About a quarter of an hour later, Bai Lao slowly opened his closed eyes, his old face was full of joy, and from the look of his complexion, he looked completely different from before.

He stood up easily, and said gratefully to Ariel and Lei Xiao: "Thank you Your Highness, thank you, although I have only temporarily refined part of the medicine, but the old man already feels like I have been born again!"

Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao nodded with a smile and heaved a sigh of relief.

From the current state of Bai Lao, it can be seen that although he has not yet fully refined the power of the medicine, compared with his previous weakness, it is more than enough to carry out command work.

This undoubtedly means that he has a little more confidence in fighting against the coming powerful enemy.

"Old General Bai, the enemy is about to attack the city, so let's act quickly."

Relieved in his heart, Lei Xiao nodded to the white-haired old man in front of him, and said seriously.

"Your Excellency's words are very true. The top priority is to completely eliminate the remnants of Aogu!"

The extremely tall and burly old Bai, with a look of awe in his eyes, nodded in response.

After leaving the cellar, under the auspices of Bai Lao who put on a set of white heavy armor, according to the information obtained by Ye Cang, the remnants of Ao Gu's forces were quickly wiped out.

As for Ao Gu himself, who was already like a walking dead and without threat, he was imprisoned in the deepest part of the castle dungeon by Bai Lao.

As a person from Shengye, he was able to get into the position of Leng Yan's lieutenant smoothly. There is no doubt that there are many secrets in this person that need to be discovered.

As for those poor residents who almost ran into the tiger's mouth again, this time they were properly settled.

A team of personal guards sent by Bai Lao escorted them to the rear of the fortress, where there are well-equipped towns and villages.

Before leaving, Ariel gave everyone a large amount of golden dragons, which was enough for all residents to start a new and prosperous life.

After handling all the miscellaneous matters properly, under Bai Lao's order, all the soldiers in the mountain fortress have entered a state of war.

For a moment, the entire mountain fortress was like a huge war machine, and every gear began to rotate at high speed.

Of course, in order to avoid being noticed by the Holy Night Army, on the surface, the fortress is still in business as usual.

And Lei Xiao, who regained the guardian of the earth in the castle, also sprinkled Ye Cang, Chao Yan, Nan Xing, Nan Yue, Lin, Bai Wei, A Ling, and A Bing all over the fortresses around the fortress. Road, to prevent the enemy from infiltrating.

With the close monitoring of four fourth-tier powerhouses and four third-tier peak powerhouses, including Nanxing Nanyue who is extremely good at tracking, no matter whether the spies of the Holy Night Army come in or out, it will be a good thing. possible things.

This is also the top priority of this fortress offensive and defensive battle.

Having just finished arranging the positions of the subordinates, under the guidance of Bai Lao, Lei Xiao came back to the meeting hall of the castle just now, ready to further discuss how to deal with it.

I saw that this place has been completely cleaned, leaving almost no trace.

However, the smell of blood still lingers in the air, which shows that there has obviously been a fierce battle here not long ago.

Currently in the hall, apart from Lei Xiao, Hu Zhang, Hong Ye, Ariel, Burt, and Ju Bai, there are also Bai Lao and two main commanders at the peak level of Tier 3.

Through Bai Lao's description of the combat power of the enemy and us, Lei Xiao learned further.

Just like the information obtained by Lin, the main force stationed in this mountain fortress is one of the eight most powerful royal legions in the Cold Flame Kingdom, the fortress legion under the command of Bai Lao.

Excluding the remnants of the Austrian forces that were wiped out, there are still 10,000 people, including an elite second-tier squadron with a size of 1,000 people.

Among the legion, there is only Bai Lao who is a fourth-tier powerhouse, and there are ten third-tier commanders.

As for the other two small fortresses, they are both close to 10,000 defenders, and their strength is at the first-tier level. There are no fourth-tier strongmen, and there are only twelve third-tier commanders.

"As for the combat power of Shengye, it is undoubtedly far greater than ours."

I saw the old man standing in front of the huge sand table, and introduced with frowned eyebrows: "As far as I know, three legions directly under the royal family have been dispatched this time on Holy Night, and the combat power of each legion is higher than that of the fortress legion under the old man's command." After all, the old man's left and right arms no longer exist, and after several battles, the elite soldiers have not been replenished in time."

"In other words, does the opponent have three elite royal legions and five miscellaneous legions?"

Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and said solemnly: "In this way, counting the main general and two lieutenants, the opponent's fourth-tier powerhouses should be on the scale of nine people, and the third-tier powerhouses are even closer to a hundred. right?"

"That's right, there are nine fourth-tier powerhouses and nearly a hundred third-tier powerhouses on the other side. Among them, the coach Hong Mo is the same as the old man. They are both at the peak level of the fourth-tier, and their strength should not be underestimated."

Bai Lao nodded solemnly, and said seriously: "However, compared with the impressive strength, the Red Devil's cautious and cunning character is more worthy of our attention."

After listening to Bai Lao's introduction to this point, everyone present took a deep breath of the bitter air.

Just nine fourth-tier powerhouses and nearly a hundred third-tier powerhouses are enough to make people fearful, almost equal to the combat power of two fifth-tier powerhouses, not to mention 80,000 other soldiers.

It is conceivable that starting before dawn tomorrow, this place will surely turn into a tragic battlefield for Shura.

"What are you afraid of? We have two real fifth-order powerhouses on our side! That's not enough to knock down a large part of the opponent with one blow!"

While feeling flustered in her heart, Ariel regained her spirits and looked at Lei Xiao quite proudly.

"His Royal Highness, I'm sorry for the old man's bluntness. The battlefield is different from the small-scale battles between the strong. In the army, the sword has no eyes, and there are intrigues. Well-trained soldiers form a battle formation, and they can often perform far better than individual soldiers. powerful force."

While stroking his gray beard lightly, Bai Lao continued: "You can't kill a chicken with a sledgehammer. When the enemy is outnumbered, it is not the wisest choice to use high-level strongmen to deal with ordinary soldiers."

"After all, although high-level powerhouses are extremely powerful, when their energy is exhausted, they must use good steel on the blade to deal a heavy blow to the opponent as much as possible."

At this point, Bai Lao nodded to Lei Xiao, and said solemnly: "The two fifth-rank powerhouses under your command are undoubtedly the most critical cards for us in this battle, and we must plan carefully. "

"On this point, I have some suggestions in my mind, and I want to share them with you."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and said calmly.
