Chapter 920 The Shocked Elders and Returning to the Territory

Hearing Elder Aiwen's righteous words, Keen and Ariel couldn't help but looked at each other, and they both frowned slightly.

Especially Ariel, who was always by Lei Xiao's side, understood it clearly.

The question raised by the other party is undoubtedly extremely tricky.

Compared with the fourth prince who has an overwhelming strength, our side is indeed in a very disadvantageous situation.

You know, the 10 main armies and 15 ordinary armies assembled by each of the three giants have reached 750,000.

Coupled with the 25 legions of the remnants of the fallen nobles assembled by the four princes, it can easily reach the scale of a million soldiers.

And our existing 10 legions, 6 legions under Caroline's command, 16 legions in transition, 20 newly surrendered northern legions, the total size is only 52 legions.

Coupled with the original part of the surrender of the mountain fortress and the large-scale recruitment of recruits, our side can only gather at most 60 legions before the decisive battle.

Among them, there are 30 main legions in the opponent's camp, each of which can match 2 to 3 ordinary legions.

But in our camp, there is only one Hilda's royal army as the main army, and the rest are all ordinary armies, and there are even quite a few more vulnerable recruits. The combat power is by no means as simple as 60:100.

Even though the 25 legions of the Shanglu family turned to our side, making the ratio of the number of enemies to us reach 85:75, the overall combat power of the opponent is still higher than ours, and the gap can be imagined.

In addition, it is needless to say that Fort Kell has the advantages of terrain and the opponent's advantage of waiting for work.

After all, our 10 corps and the 16 surrendering corps that are being converted have just experienced a big battle, and there is no time to rest.

This is only the strength on paper. As for what kind of cards the opponent holds in his hand and whether there are other helpers to support him, it is still unknown.

Under this premise, I am afraid that any commander is not sure to say the words to defeat the opponent. Even if the lord is sure, he will definitely be considered arrogant by the opponent.

And if you directly say that you are not sure, it is tantamount to blocking the conversation, and you are undoubtedly in a dilemma.

Just as Ariel froze her willow eyebrows.

The old Aiwen who asked the question and the old Bazel beside him were full of pride and awe-inspiring expressions of unwillingness to submit.

For them, although the reputation of this young guest from another world is in full swing, it is far from being trustworthy!

"As expected of Elder Aiwen, who has always been at ease between Hanshui, Elder Keen and others, this is indeed a sharp question."

Lei Xiao smiled lightly, and did not answer the other party directly, but asked instead: "Elder Aiwen, then I also want to ask you a question, can you guarantee that after becoming the fourth prince's minion and helping the fourth prince win the victory?" , won’t the Shanglu family perish?”

"this……"

Hearing Lei Xiao's question, old Aiwen and old Bazel looked at each other, and the arrogance on the old face obviously eased a lot.

Lei Xiao's words were like sharp swords, which could be said to hit their vital points directly.

This is what worries them most.

As Lei Xiao said, so what if the fourth prince won the final victory?

As long as the fourth prince and the other two giants are still there, the Shanglu family will still be on the verge of crisis.

"The hearts of the two elders are actually clearer, right?"

"Whether it's killing the donkey, or the threat of the other two giants, the Shanglu family has already taken this taboo step, is there going to be a way back?"

Lei Xiao's voice became sharper, and he said forcefully: "The most important thing is that you cannot control all of this, because the cold water of going your own way will always be on top of your heads, and you will even be eliminated immediately."

"In other words, no matter from the perspective of the family or from the perspective of the Patriarch Han Shui, you are already superfluous."

Speaking of this point, Lei Xiao's tone softened again: "But I am totally different from Her Royal Highness, whether it is the two of you, or the four of Elder Keen, they are important members that we cannot ignore, because of the status Lin, who is a collateral lineage, needs the full support of each of you in order to secure the position of Patriarch."

"Your Majesty is right."

I saw Keane stepping forward, his old face was full of sincerity and said to the other two neutral elders: "Aiwen, Bazel, don't you understand?"

"The Shanglu family under the rule of Hanshui no longer needs us useless old bones, and even wants to drive us all to death without leaving a trace of sympathy."

"However, the Shanglu family led by Your Excellency Keqing and His Highness the Princess still needs us, old bones like us to continue to shine for the family we love, and we need us to go to glory together with the family and even the Lengyan Kingdom. What honor and trust?"

On Keane's wrinkled old face, the expression of excitement was palpable: "Do you understand now? These old bones are not useless, let alone superfluous. We can still control the future, and we can still witness the future with Your Excellency Ke Qing and His Highness the Princess! "

Hearing Keen's words, the bodies of the two neutral elders visibly trembled, and their hearts obviously resonated.

"Elder Aiwen, Elder Bazel, His Highness Ariel and I will only promise you one thing, that is, the Shanglu family will reach an unprecedented height in our hands!"

Noticing that the hearts of the two had loosened, Lei Xiao waved his hand casually, and the huge room was filled with an assortment of Tier 4 high-quality equipment, and there were as many as a thousand pieces.

For a moment, the entire room was radiant with dazzling brilliance.

"I have long heard that Your Excellency Ke Qing is as rich as an enemy, but I did not expect to have such a terrifying background."

Seeing this scene that was almost blinding, not only the two elders Aiwen and Bazel, but even Keen's old face was full of old eyes, full of shock.

You know, these are fourth-tier high-quality equipment second only to the fifth-tier township level. Even if the entire Shanglu family is added together, they only hold a few dozen pieces at most, which is evident from this!

Looking at the shocked old faces of the three elders, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction.

The reason why I made such a move was naturally to show my strength.

At present, the loot from all over the place has not yet been collected, so we can only use Tier 4 equipment to suppress the field first.

But judging from the final effect, this is enough to shock the opponent.

"With the promise made by Your Excellency Ke Qing and Her Highness the Princess, what reason do the two of us have to refuse?"

After being shocked, Aiwen and Bazel, whose old faces were full of excitement, knelt down on one knee to Lei Xiao and Ariel without any hesitation, and said, "The two of us are willing to serve Your Highness the Princess, and I am willing to assist you. Your Excellency is planning everything!"

"From this moment on, our destinies will merge into one, and under the banner of His Royal Highness Ariel, you will surely reach unprecedented glory."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and helped the two elders up together with Ariel.

"Elder Aiwen, Elder Bazel, in order to show the generosity and kindness of His Royal Highness Ariel, you can choose one set of all the equipment here."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, then nodded to Kean on the other side and said, "Your Excellency, Chief Elder, you don't have to be polite. After the selection is complete, bring a set to the other three elders who were not present."

"Thank you very much, Your Royal Highness! Thank you very much, Your Excellency Ke Qing!"

Hearing the sound, needless to say how excited the three elders were, they quickly thanked each other and went to pick up equipment.

You must know that the Shanglu family, which has been doing business all year round, is the best expert in equipment among the nobles.

And the elders who are the apex of the family's power, each is a top expert in equipment appraisal.

The moment Lei Xiao swung out the equipment, they had already spotted it with sharp eyes.

Many of these equipments are made by famous craftsmen of the dwarves and elves, and they can be called the best of the best. It is rare to see them in human countries for a hundred years, and their value cannot be measured at all.

Even if they are in high positions, it is difficult to touch them, let alone a whole set!

Looking at the excited faces of the three elders, Lei Xiao smiled faintly.

For me, these things are naturally a drop in the bucket, not worth mentioning at all.

Being able to use these to convince the other party is really appropriate.

When I control the entire Shanglu family, and then integrate all the resources of the Shanglu family and upgrade them one by one, I will undoubtedly get an extremely huge number.

"Just to be on the safe side, I might as well make another small promise."

Thinking of this in his heart, Lei Xiao nodded to the main subordinates behind him.

A handful of even more splendor fifth-tier town-level state-level soldiers were displayed in front of the three elders, shaking them so much that they could hardly keep their eyes open.

"Everyone, the Tier 4 equipment is just a gift for me to meet Her Highness the Princess. When the situation stabilizes, Her Highness the Princess and I will personally present you with a set of state-level equipment."

Lei Xiao's words were calm and he said with a smile, "This is the promise that Her Highness the Princess and I made to you."

"A set of town-level equipment for each person?!"

Hearing Lei Xiao's words, the three elders of the Shanglu family swallowed involuntarily, their faces full of shock and joy.

At this moment, even if it was Han Shui, or even His Majesty the Steel Wrist King, they would not believe these words at all.

But the guest in front of you, Your Excellency, has already proved it with reality, which is enough to turn all this into reality!

You know, the Lengyan royal family only has two fifth-tier town state-level magic soldiers!

If they can really get this level of magical weapon, let alone let them cooperate and submit, even if they are asked to kneel down and lick Lei Xiao's combat boots, they will be willing!

Thinking of this in his heart, the three elders all looked eager to fight. While thanking Lei Xiao again and again, they wished to immediately pull that bastard Hanshui off the throne.

"With everyone's assistance, everything will go smoothly."

Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile and nodded in satisfaction.

Although I don't have a few redundant fifth-level equipment on my body.

But as long as he upgrades the loot that has not been upgraded this time, he can get a lot of new fifth-tier equipment, which is enough to fulfill his promise.

While thinking this in his heart, Lei Xiao looked at the unshakable old faces of the elders, and his smile grew stronger.

So far, the four opposition elders and the two neutral elders have all been tied to the gears of their chariots!

While excited in his heart, Lei Xiao nodded slightly, waved his hand casually, and put away the other fourth-tier equipment again.

"As for whether to accept these six elders as subordinates, let's choose an opportunity later."

"One reason is that I don't have so many fourth-level recruitment orders in my hand, and the population of the territory is already extremely tight. The second reason is that controlling Leslie is equivalent to controlling Kean and the other four."

"As for Aiwen and Bazel, they are extremely slippery and even more intelligent. Now that I have placed the stakes in front of the two of them and promised major benefits, they are the ones who judge the situation the most, and they are no different from subordinates. "

Surrounded by the elders, Lei Xiao sat down with Ariel, continuing to think about the current situation.

"Just in case, I will leave the knotweed stick and some fourth-tier powerhouses to guard the seemingly destroyed castle."

"It goes without saying that the tiger stick is a fifth-level powerhouse, but Sarah and Xiao Zhao, who have recovered most of their summoning power, have easily surpassed the combat power of a legion with their own strength and summoning items, which is enough to guarantee the safety of this place. .”

"In addition, Jiang Li has already deployed a space beacon in the castle, and magic communication cannot be carried out in the illusion, which is enough to block the last trace of uncertainty."

"In this way, I can carry out the next plan without any worries, and lure Hanshui back to Lion Heart City."

As Lei Xiao thought about it, he immediately informed the two elders, Aiwen and Bazel, of his next plan.

"Okay, now that the matter has been finalized, let's start implementing the next plan immediately."

Lei Xiao snapped his fingers lightly, and a dangerous arc began to appear at the corner of his mouth.

"After receiving the news from us, Han Shui will definitely rush back to Lion Heart City before noon tomorrow, and it will be time to pull him down into the abyss."

After speaking, Lei Xiao immediately started to act according to the predetermined plan, and quickly arranged everything in Lion Heart City.

Then, Lei Xiao bid farewell to the elders and Leslie, and returned to the territory with Ariel, Lin and others.

Before tomorrow comes, Lei Xiao still has two important things to do.

The first thing is to participate in the celebration banquets held in various places tonight with Ariel.

The second thing, of course, is to collect loot from all over the place, and then upgrade it all at once.

"Before the celebration banquet begins, let's collect the spoils from all over the place."

Looking at the bright sun above his head, Lei Xiao nodded to Jiang Li.

Since the loot from all over the place has been counted, Lei Xiao flashed and teleported all the way, and soon collected all the loot.

"Then, let's start upgrading now. After the huge consumption of the Battle of Wangxing Corridor, it's time for me to replenish my inventory."

Lei Xiao, who had returned to the territory, came to the storage wooden box excitedly, and rubbed his hands impatiently.
