Chapter 580： under the castle

Having said this, Lei Xiao did not continue the topic, but changed the subject: "Your Excellency City Lord, I believe that in the near future, you will find out how right it is to choose to join the power of Her Royal Highness the Princess. ."

At present, under the complex situation of the entire region, Lei Xiao naturally will not reveal the whole family.

Although the possibility of Hod's betrayal is almost zero, even if it is very small, Lei Xiao will not casually joke about the lives of subordinates in other places.

After all, the opponents of myself and Ariel are the three Princes of Cold Flame who stand at the pinnacle of power, as well as an unfathomable mysterious organization.

In the face of these powerful opponents, as long as one step is negligent, it is very likely to be a disaster.

At the same time, Lei Xiao couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Gelin City was the second city he went to after Kongqing Town.

At that time, I remember that when I saw the towering city walls and bustling streets of Gelin City, I felt a sense of novelty as a countryman entering the city, looking forward to when I would be able to own such a big city.

Times have changed, and the city that he once longed for is now under his control.

"Understood, please rest assured that Your Highness Keqing and His Royal Highness the Princess, even if there is only one city left in Gelin, I am willing to advance and retreat with His Excellency Keqing and His Royal Highness Princess until the last moment of the battle!"

At this time, Hod looked solemn and said solemnly: "This is the inextinguishable oath of a knight."

"Very good, then let's talk about the second thing just mentioned."

I saw Lei Xiao, who was holding the white porcelain teacup, first glanced at Ariel, and then said, "That's about the next arrangement of Gelincheng."

After draining the tea in the cup, Lei Xiao continued: "I need Your Excellency, who was originally neutral, from now on, lower his stance towards the Second Prince's faction and show a slightly ambiguous attitude."

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, I know what to do next."

On the other side, Hod also took a sip of tea and said knowingly: "Only in this way can the second prince's doubts be dispelled, and his attention can be completely shifted to Kongqing Town."

"Yes, at that time, as long as the other party's main force is not in the sphere of influence, making the city where it belongs to empty, the other sharp blades buried by Gelincheng and me will completely disintegrate all the forces of the second prince in this eastern region."

Gently putting down the teacup in his hand, Lei Xiao tapped his fingers and said with a smile.

Needless to say, the other sharp blades that Lei Xiao was referring to were naturally the two independent knights, Blue Rose and Broken Blade.

"The series of preparations I made before have been completed perfectly, and I have to find a time to bring Tina and Laien under his command."

Making up his mind in his heart, Lei Xiao moved his stiff body at will on the seat, and said, "As for the third thing, it is about the minerals that are abundant in Gelin City..."

Next, Lei Xiao explained to Hod the six main resources required to upgrade the three miracle buildings, as well as the main resource steel ingots required to upgrade the lord's mansion.

Now that the city of Gelin City, the capital of all mines, has been controlled, it is natural to make the best use of it.

At present, of the three miracle buildings in Lei Xiao's territory, only the Guardian Defense Agency, which was originally built, is unique, and has been upgraded to level 6, while the Light Healing Center and the last built Vision Tower are both level 2.

Among the three miracle buildings, the two main resources required for the upgrade of the guardian defense agencies, the pitch-black magic crystal and obsidian, were both produced in the old mining area of ​​Gelin City, and were excavated by five people including Su Rui and Su Mo. mine.

After Lei Xiao easily upgraded the mansions of these five lords to level 5.

With the passage of time, the total number of subordinates under these five people has reached 1,000, and mining a mine is naturally more than enough.

The main resources required for the upgrade of Bright Healing are white jade ore and light spar.

Among them, it goes without saying that light spar, although expensive, can still be purchased, and Lei Xiao has also stored a lot.

And white jade ore, a resource that is hardly produced in the Lengyan area, happens to be produced in the Principality of Shanjing, which perfectly fills the gap.

"By the way, this morning, Celia, the princess of the duchy, just delivered a batch of white jade ore. I'll pick it up when I return to Kongqing Town. If there is no accident, the Bright Healing Center will undoubtedly be able to upgrade again. Level 1!"

"While this healing type of miracle building, I hope will never be used, with the outbreak of total war, many things have become out of control."

"It is undeniable that the higher the level of the Bright Healing Institute, the higher the recovery efficiency of the soldiers directly under my command, and the faster they can regenerate their combat power. The role is obviously crucial."

Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao continued to think.

"Speaking of which, the most scarce at present are the wind spirit stones and blue moon stones required by the Tower of Vision."

"According to the latest information I have learned, these two rare ores have not been found in the Kingdom of Cold Flame for more than a hundred years. I hope I can gain something in Glin City."

Just as Lei Xiao was thinking.

On the other side, Hod took the stack of ore ledger that Li Xia handed over, and after a careful inspection, he responded: "Your Excellency Keqing, there are still a lot of reserves of light spar in Gelin City, if your Excellency Keqing needs If so, you can use it at any time.”

"And the white jade ore is very rare in the entire cold flame area. The refined steel ore needed to refine the refined steel ingot is also the same. For the time being, there is nothing I can do."

Shaking his head helplessly at Lei Xiao, Hod put down the ledger and said with a smile: "As for the four kinds of dark magic crystal, obsidian, wind spirit stone and blue moon stone.

Although there are no ore veins that are currently being produced, there are certain reserves in the secret mine warehouse of Gelin City, which should be able to help. "

"Oh?"

I saw Lei Xiao's eyes lit up, and while standing up from his seat, he said to Hod: "Let's take a look."

"As instructed, I invite Your Excellency Keqing and Her Royal Highness to come this way."

Following Lei Xiao to stand up, Hod nodded without hesitation.

In this way, under the guidance of Hodder, Lisha and Reese.

The group went straight to the discussion hall in the castle of Gelin, and then passed the secret passage behind the throne of the hall, and went deep into the underground of the main mansion of the city of Gelin.

Walking in the empty and spacious bright underground corridor studded with light spar, Lei Xiao learned through Hod's further explanation.

It turned out that this large castle, which was the main mansion of the city, was originally built above an ancient underground mine.

And this underground warehouse was transformed from the original ancient underground mine.

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, this secret mine warehouse has the power to inspect and control it only as a subordinate of the city owner. Therefore, as long as there is no movement, it will not be discovered by others."

In the process of advancing in the underground corridor, Hodder, who was walking at the front and staggered a little, turned his head and introduced again.

Since the two sides and the middle part of the road each have a rail that extends all the way to the depths of the corridor, Hodder, who was injured, looked extra careful when he turned around.

"That couldn't be better."

Listening to the footsteps of everyone, echoing in the empty corridor, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction.

Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao explained the last thing that needed to be explained to Hod about the idea of ​​mobilizing the resident members of the Alchemist Guild of Songlin City and making potions collectively.

"It turns out that Your Excellency Keqing and His Highness the Princess have such plans. Although the Lord of Gelin City has no direct jurisdiction over the Alchemist Guild of Gelin City, they still understand that this group wishes to get into the alchemy platform every day. The guy who walks and looks at people through his nostrils."

After listening to Lei Xiao's description, Huo De was amazed and said: "If Your Excellency Keqing can really provide a large amount of precious alchemy materials for the Alchemist Guild in Gelincheng, then the group of arrogant guys who regard alchemy as life, are they? I would definitely like to sit down and have a good talk with Your Excellency Ke Qing."

After a pause, Hod added: "After all, most of the precious alchemy materials are rare treasures of heaven and earth, and even many senior alchemists have even accidentally lost their own in order to find a precious plant. life."

Shaking his head helplessly, Hod said: "Even alchemists **** and kill each other is not uncommon. Therefore, for every alchemist, rare alchemy materials are like rain after a long drought. In general, it's not too much."

"Very good, then the matter of contacting the Alchemy Guild in this city will be handed over to Your Excellency the City Lord."

Nodding with satisfaction, Lei Xiao said, "I will spare some time tomorrow afternoon or evening to make a special trip to discuss this matter."

"Understood, although Master Yatuo, who is currently the president, has been recalled to the capital by the royal family, he has a relatively good relationship with the vice president who stayed behind. The face of the other party will still be given to him."

At the front of the team, Hod opened another metal door shining with the brilliance of magic prohibition.

Then he responded: "However, I still have to remind Your Excellency Keqing that the guys who can stay in the Alchemy Guild are almost the most fanatical alchemists, not only arrogant, but also arrogant and arrogant. You must be fully prepared..."

"Don't worry, at that time, I will let these proud sons all crawl under my feet."

Dandan smiled, Lei Xiao changed the subject again, and asked again: "By the way, Your Excellency City Lord, how much do you know about Luolong City?"

There is no doubt that according to the predetermined plan, since Gelincheng has been included in its own sphere of influence.

Then, the next goal is naturally Luolongcheng.

"Don't lie to Your Excellency Keqing, although the distance between Luolong City and Gelin City is not very far, I seldom communicate with Luolong City Lord."

I saw Hod helplessly shook his head and responded, "The City Lord Luolong, nicknamed the Crazy Skull, is extremely bloodthirsty and bellicose, and has an extremely strange temper. His rough skin looks very similar to a half-orc. , It is said that it seems to have a part of the blood of the Orcs."

After a pause, Hod added: "Don't lie to Your Excellency Keqing, that guy's strength, although only half a foot into the third-order peak level of the fourth-order, is a fourth-order two-star, the only one who feels A threatening third-order powerhouse."

"Oh? A Tier 3 powerhouse can actually make Tier 4 powerhouses feel threatened?"

At this moment, a curious look appeared on Lei Xiao's face.

"My lord, regarding this City Lord Luolong, I have been in contact with him a few times and learned about the situation of the other party."

The old voice sounded, and only the giant axe general Burt said: "Twenty years ago, this guy was active on the battlefield of the extreme southern rainforest fortress with the strength of the third-order peak powerhouse. He is also a candidate for the eight generals of the royal family."

"However, because in a large-scale encounter, he not only smashed the heads of thirty of the enemy's guard soldiers with a chain hammer, but also killed several enemy commanders who were about to surrender, together with the beside him. Servant, his head also smashed into a flower, and this is how he got the title of Crazy Skull."

After speaking, Bert couldn't help but pouted slightly.

"So it turns out, it's a rather **** ruthless character."

Hearing this, the curiosity on Lei Xiao's face became more and more obvious, and he muttered to himself, "I really can't help but want to meet this "crazy-crazy man". "

"All in all, Your Excellency Ke Qing, this person has a capricious temperament and is definitely not a normal person. If Your Excellency Ke Qing goes to Luolong City, please handle it with caution."

Nodding to Lei Xiao, Hod added with some worry.

"It doesn't matter, I specialize in this kind of unruly weird guy."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiaodan said with a smile.

While several people were talking, a group of people had already walked out of the long underground corridor to an extremely vast underground space.

On the surrounding walls, row after row of inlaid light spar illuminated, Lei Xiao noticed.

Directly opposite him, there are a large number of giant stone gates arranged neatly, and they are divided into three layers, upper, middle and lower. It looks like a small beehive.

And the three rails that extend out are extended to every stone gate by the shortest route, and the layout is extremely decent.

"Your Excellency Keqing, Your Highness Princess, please wait here for a while."

After guiding Lei Xiao and his group to a high position where they could look down on the audience, Hod nodded to the Richards and brothers who were beside him.

Immediately afterwards, the two of Richards understood and immediately began to split up, opening the five doors of the honeycomb warehouse in front of them in turn.

The first thing that caught Lei Xiao's eyes was a dazzling warehouse.

Needless to say, there are naturally a large number of light spar in it.

Immediately afterwards, the dark obsidian warehouse, the black magic crystal warehouse with a little golden glow in the black, the wind spirit stone warehouse exuding light yellow brilliance, and the blue moon stone warehouse, all of them were in succession. It caught Lei Xiao's eyes.

At this time, although Lei Xiao was on the high platform, within the five gates, piles of various ores of various colors were still clearly visible.

"Good guy, I've never seen so many scarce resources once!"

This scene caused a look of uncontrollable joy on Lei Xiao's face, and he muttered to himself, "This time, the miracle buildings in the territory can be upgraded again!"

However, in addition to the ecstasy, Lei Xiao seemed to remember something, and could not help but frown slightly.
