Chapter 1235: The Lord's Thoughts and Deployments

"First of all, it's the dimensional storm."

The gray and wrinkled old face was full of seriousness, and he said to Lei Xiao: "Your Highness must have heard of it, especially in the past hundred years, this special and extremely dangerous natural phenomenon has appeared more and more frequently. If not in time, If it is stopped, it will definitely cause great harm to the local area.”

"Therefore, summarizing and analyzing the places where dimensional storms occur is one of the key objectives of the Mercenary Guild's investigation."

The gray old man gently stroked his gray beard and continued: "After all, this area of ​​​​the human world is too broad. If you search for it inch by inch, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack."

"It makes sense. Considering the vastness and complex terrain of the human world, if there is no targeted approach, it will be difficult to find any clues in a thousand years, let alone hundreds of years."

Lei Xiao gently rubbed his chin, retracted his gaze from admiring the surrounding antiquities, and mused: "And the dimensional storm is essentially a crack that tears open the void space. Maybe it is really related to the catastrophe crack."

"The most important point is that the dimensional storm was originally a special phenomenon before the blank era. After the blank era, it disappeared for at least two thousand years."

"But now, under the premise that the prophecy of catastrophe may come true at any time, it appears more and more frequently. It is difficult not to combine the two."

After hearing what Lei Xiao said, Hui Lao nodded and affirmed: "His Royal Highness, it really makes sense. Just as His Highness has considered, these two points are the reasons why the Mercenary Guild is focusing on the dimensional storm."

After receiving Hui Lao's affirmation, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment and asked: "According to what I learned, although dimensional storms in the human realm have appeared in various countries, the situation in the Verdant Kingdom is the most serious. Presumably this should be Is this the key investigation target of the Mercenary Guild?"

"Yes, just as His Highness the Prince said, especially in the past ten years or so, whenever I have time, I will personally go to the Green Kingdom to investigate."

Hui Lao led a group of people around the corner of a corridor, and said with a solemn expression: "During this process, although I also led the mercenaries under my command to try their best to suppress the discovered dimensional storm eye, but because of the dimensional storm that appeared, It’s too frequent, and it still affects many towns in the Green Kingdom.”

"This is indeed a problem. After all, compared to the other six kingdoms, the Green Kingdom is vast and sparsely populated. In addition to large grasslands, there are also many deserts and sandy areas. Even a sixth-level powerhouse cannot take care of such a vast land. every corner.”

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said: "However, I have completely restored the mature technology of the Cold Flame Kingdom to monitor dimensional storms to the Green Kingdom and several other countries, and have successively established many monitoring stations and early warning mechanisms. Presumably the dimensional storm will not No longer a threat to the human world."

"His Royal Highness the Prince's noble contribution to the human world cannot be measured in any single word."

Hui Lao first praised Lei Xiao generously, and then changed the topic: "However, after a detailed on-site investigation, it is surprising that the Green Kingdom is not actually a dimensional storm raging. The most serious place.”

"oh?"

Lei Xiao's eyes flashed with curiosity, and he continued to listen to the other party's words.

"To be honest with you, Your Highness, the area where the dimensional storm is most raging is the sea area around the Green Kingdom."

Hui Lao stopped in front of a large map depicting the human world. The old finger pointed at the blue surrounding the human world, and his expression became more solemn.

"Is it actually at sea?"

Lei Xiao looked at the vast blue area that extended to the edge of the map, his eyes flashing.

The human world is located at the bottom of the entire plate. Except for the Kingdom of Lengyan, which is located in the center of the human race, the other six countries are more or less bordered by the sea.

But compared to land and air trade, the development of maritime trade in the human world is relatively slow, and even wars rarely occur at sea.

This has led to various countries not attaching great importance to the development of maritime power, and it is far less powerful than on land.

"Except for assisting Catherine to break out of the encirclement, I have never experienced a real battle at sea. This is indeed a place that is easily overlooked."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

If you think about it carefully, although you are currently vigorously developing land and even air combat capabilities, your attention to maritime power is relatively limited.

In this case, if the catastrophic cracks really appeared from somewhere on the sea, it would undoubtedly put the weak sea force into an extremely passive situation.

After all, the content of the cataclysm is still unclear. Whether it is some kind of terrible natural disaster, or the balance between real space and void space is broken like a dimensional storm. If your maritime power is strong enough, you may be able to find a solution as soon as possible. The way or the way of thinking about the problem.

Even if a catastrophe cannot be prevented, it is much better than being unprepared.

Furthermore, tectonic wars with other lords will definitely start at sea. If they are not strong enough, they will also fall into an extremely passive situation.

Thinking from this, no matter what aspect you consider, you must put this matter on the agenda as soon as possible.

After making up his mind, Lei Xiao brought his thoughts back to reality and asked again: "Old president, after confirming the specific location of frequent dimensional storms, have you gained anything else?"

"Back to Your Highness, this is where people are scratching their heads."

Hui Lao shook his head helplessly and responded: "Your Highness must have known that no matter how large the scale of the dimensional storm is, it will eventually dissipate due to the balance between real space and void space, as if it had never appeared. "

"So, although the people below have traveled to almost every location where dimensional storms have occurred, they have found nothing. They have not found any abnormal space cracks or similar space phenomena."

Speaking of this, Hui Lao and other mercenary guild executives, including Diana, looked at each other, and they all saw a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.

"In any case, the Mercenary Guild has indeed found an extremely important direction."

Lei Xiao moved his eyes away from the map, nodded to the mercenary executives and said: "It is no accident that dimensional storms appear so frequently. When I have my hands free, I will send capable space fighters like Jiang Lei. Let the experts help you search more carefully."

"No, to be more precise, this is no longer a big task for an organization of the Mercenary Guild. I will mobilize the resources of the entire human race to find the cracks in this cataclysm."

Lei Xiao paused for a moment and then added: "Don't worry, the hard work of the old president and everyone will never be in vain."

"I am deeply gratified by His Highness the Prince's words."

Hui Lao nodded heavily, and then said: "In addition to the search route of dimensional storm, we have also opened up a second search direction for the cracks of the cataclysm, which is the misplaced objects scattered everywhere."

"Are they misplaced objects? This is indeed equally concerning. After all, these misplaced objects have separated from their original positions and inexplicably appeared thousands of miles away, or even further away."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and immediately asked: "What did the old president gain from this?"

"Your Highness, please take a look."

Hui Lao brought Lei Xiao to another map of the human world. He pointed at the patterns of temples and collapsed buildings scattered on it and said, "This is the distribution map of misplaced objects known to the mercenary guild."

Looking at the map, Lei Xiao noticed.

There are more than twenty icons on it, distributed all over the human world. Some are located among the mountains, some are located around the city, and some are even in the river. However, no matter how you look at them, they have no connection with each other. .

Among them, even the dwarf ruins underground in Luolong City have been marked. It seems that the old boy Wang Xina also provided some clues.

Sure enough, just as Lei Xiao thought of this, Hui Lao's introduction sounded: "To be honest with you, Your Highness, most of these misplaced objects were discovered by the Mercenary Guild, and some were provided by the King of Heroes. Almost all of them are I went to the site and investigated it myself.”

"These erroneous objects involve many alien races. Some of them are just a single temple or other building, while others are part of a city. There is no pattern at all."

Hui Lao sighed softly, then became serious again, and said seriously: "However, it cannot be ruled out that one of these misplaced objects is where the cataclysm cracks are located. After all, they should not be located on these places on the map in the first place. Location."

"I feel the same. I will gather the power of the entire human world as soon as possible to draw a complete map of the ruins and dislocated objects in case of emergency."

Lei Xiao expressed his thoughts just now and said: "At the same time, I will start to establish multiple observation stations, barracks and corresponding sealing measures at all the locations of the dislocated objects. Once there is any change in any place, I will immediately Can respond to blockade.”

Hearing the sound, Hui Lao, Diana and other senior mercenaries were all excited and nodded along.

You must know that these ruins are located all over the human world, and all countries are involved. Although the mercenary guild has a transcendent status, it does not have the power to command the king.

This means that even if the mercenary guild knows that the catastrophe is coming, it will be difficult to gather the power of the entire human race to do the same thing.

After all, the wars between various countries are complicated, and conflicts of interest arise one after another. They would like to destroy each other's country, and they cannot stand together at all.

Because of this, even though the three neutral organizations had determined that the catastrophe was inevitable a hundred years ago, there was still no way for the seven human monarchs to sit together. They could only convene a meeting between the three neutral organizations.

In this way, coupled with the fact that the three neutral organizations are already restricting each other, and the Temple of Light is becoming increasingly isolated under the leadership of the Chosen Son of the Evil God, this has led to the fact that the human world generally knows very little about the Cataclysm, and even more so. Forget about being on guard.

But now, Lei Xiao has stood on the seven golden crowns and has become the true master of the human race, so all of this can be easily solved!

While the mercenaries were rejoicing, Lei Xiao also started to read casually, gathered the monarchs of the seven countries, and deployed them all.

Currently, in addition to Catherine of the Iron Hand Islands, there are Queen Ariel of the Cold Flame Kingdom, Willy, the new king of the Holy Night Kingdom, Eckhart, the new king of the Green Kingdom, Phil, the new speaker of the Canlan Federation, and the new Saint of the Grim Kingdom. Wang Lawrence and the new queen of the Pars Empire, Cecilia, are both direct subordinates of Lei Xiao, so it is undoubtedly easy to issue orders.

Then, under the guidance of Hui Lao and other mercenaries, Lei Xiao passed through the huge exhibition area and continued to move deeper into Pioneer City.

As the group went deeper underground, the structure of the entire underground city began to become more and more complicated.

Elegantly decorated corridors crisscrossed with residential areas, various warehouses, training grounds and other areas, just like a huge maze.

"Your Highness, the forbidden treasure house area of ​​the mercenary guild is ahead."

In front of a spacious corridor, Gray Old nodded to Lei Xiao and introduced: "According to your instructions, I have gathered all the equipment above level three, potions of various levels, and magic scrolls and other items here for your inspection."

"Thank you for your hard work, old president. As for other low-level equipment, we will recycle them all after the full replacement. We can't miss any resources in the human world."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said to Gray Old.

"Full replacement?"

Hearing Lei Xiao's words, Gray Old and others were stunned at first, and then a hint of irrepressible excitement appeared in their eyes.

The fact that the soldiers under Lei Xiao's command are equipped with extraordinary equipment is well known to the entire human world. This undoubtedly means that the overall strength of the mercenaries can obviously rise to a new height!

"Yes, according to my standards, all first-level soldiers are equipped with second-level equipment, all second-level elite soldiers are equipped with third-level equipment, and all third-level strongmen are equipped with fourth-level equipment. There is still no problem."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and said calmly: "Of course, I mean to meet the needs of the entire human world."

In the past few days, after upgrading the equipment of the Holy Night Kingdom, Canglan Federation, Pars Empire, and Verdant Kingdom, plus the Cold Flame Kingdom, Iron Hand Islands, and Grim Kingdom that Lei Xiao had upgraded before, the number of equipment stocks has already reached an unprecedented level of fullness.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if it is consumed without repair, Lei Xiao's inventory is enough for the current human world to use for more than a few decades.

Of course, Lei Xiao has been working hard to build equipment forging forces such as the forging team and the magic craftsman team, and this number will undoubtedly continue to grow at a very fast speed.

As long as Lei Xiao is given enough time, the current equipment level will continue to improve. Even if all members have equipment above level 3 or even level 4, it is not impossible.

After hearing Lei Xiao's words, it goes without saying how excited Gray Old and others were. After all, even if the three neutral organizations were gathered together, they would not have such powerful equipment capabilities.

In other words, Lei Xiao alone has improved the equipment capabilities of the entire human world by several levels!

"Your Highness, this is the first treasure house."

With the guidance of Gray Old, Lei Xiao stepped into the door of the treasure house.
