Lord of the People: My Talent is 100 Million Points Strong

Lord of All: My talent is 100 million points strong Chapter 592: The top of Luolong City and the underground cave

"So that's it, Outland? This is a bit difficult to handle."

After hearing Bert's answer, Lei Xiao frowned slightly.

Lei Xiao is no stranger to the word "outer territory".

What it refers to is the vast uninhabited land to the north of the Cold Flame Kingdom, separated by the endless Baibu Mountains.

Of course, the so-called no-man's land refers to the fact that it is not inhabited by humans, but is dotted with some relatively primitive and barbaric tribal races such as orcs and goblins.

Therefore, the "Outer Territory" is a barbaric area. For the human race, it is an unexplored area.

As for Lei Xiao, he has already had some contacts.

When I conquered the Snow Wolf Clan and eliminated the two Orc tribes, the Fengtan Hills I went to belonged to the "Outer Land" area.

"As for the passage to the "Outer Domain", there are two passages near the territory. One is to the west of the territory in the Shadow Forest. After the pass annihilation battle, it has been completely blocked by Japanese knotweed. The other is naturally this building built on The fortress city on the pass fell to Longcheng. "

Instructing Zhou Wu and others to stay put, Lei Xiao stood up from the wooden pier and walked towards the cliff.

While thinking about it: "As for another important passage, it is located in the northern area of ​​​​Leng Yan, which is the Extreme North Fortress currently guarded by Ariel's sister, the third princess of Leng Yan."

"As for the northern area of ​​Lengyan, there is no need to consider it until I have complete control over the eastern area of ​​Lengyan. In other words, in the area near the territory, Luolong City is the only passage connecting the "Outer Domain". "

At this time, in the process of thinking, Lei Xiao, surrounded by his subordinates, had already walked to the edge of the cliff with an extremely wide view.

Stopping and standing still, Lei Xiao noticed.

A solid wooden fence has been installed here by Zhou Wu and others. There is even a wooden seat built with ropes between two thick lone trees next to it, which looks very special.

"Sitting here and watching the two suns rise and set is quite poetic, right?"

Caressing the polished wooden seat, Lei Xiao murmured to himself.

Next, facing the biting high-altitude wind, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked down.

I saw that the entire dragon city below the mountain was fully visible.

Whether it is the thick city wall outside the city, or the teams of armored soldiers patrolling and guarding the city wall.

You can clearly see the intricate streets within the city, the city lord's palace in the center, the large training ground mentioned by Zhou Wu, and even the towering clock tower leading to the underground city that he has been to before. .

"I have to say, the feeling of looking down at everything is really refreshing."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao moved his gaze to the north of the heavily guarded Luolong City, in the direction of "Outer Territory".

As far as the eye can see, the sky is full of sand and dust, and there are patches of barren land with no grass growing, and there are large and small potholes scattered among them. They look almost the same as the Fengtan Hills.

Seeing this, Lei Xiao looked towards the south of Luolong City.

In this land of Cold Flame Kingdom, there are endless green plains and patches of dense woods.

The vibrant scene is undoubtedly in sharp contrast with the desolate "outer land", like two completely different worlds.

"Lord, in the past few hundred years, when Luolong City was at its peak, it was garrisoned by five legions. It was a standard large fortress city."

I saw Ariel moving lightly and walked to Lei Xiao's side and said: "However, as time goes by, due to the barbaric aliens in this "outer land", most of them have migrated to the Buluo Fortress in the far north. , causing the defensive pressure of Luolong City to drop sharply, and finally reached its current scale. "

"I see. No wonder the last goblin attack was the first in a hundred years."

His eyes jumped, and Lei Xiao stared at the desolate "Outer Land" to the north of Luolong City again.

He nodded thoughtfully.

Originally, according to the original plan, Lei Xiao was not prepared to take down Luolong City in a hurry.

In this way, the pressure of defending the "outer domain" will undoubtedly be transferred to oneself.

However, compared with the forces of the Second Prince who almost directly put the blade on his neck, the advantages of taking down Luolong City still outweigh the disadvantages.

This is the only way to unite with Gelin City in the west and the two independent knights blooming in the middle.

Only then can he perfectly backstab the Second Prince's power in this area from the inside out, allowing him to completely fall under his own control in a short period of time.

"In addition, the dungeon here is where Wang Xi's sleeping place is. Controlling this place will make it easier to communicate with him. Of course, the prerequisite is to find the Holy Yun Stone before the portal can be reopened."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

"Lord, according to the latest information we have now, there are more than 8,000 permanent garrison troops in Luolong City, and there are also 2,000 reserve troops. The total strength is the size of a legion."

An old and powerful voice sounded, and the white-haired Bert came over from the other side, bowed and said: "As for the other residents in the city, most of them are the families of the garrison, and there are also a small number of merchants and mercenaries."

"Understood."

Nodding in thought, Lei Xiao turned to the elderly general beside him and asked, "Mr. Bert, how are you sure that "Skull-Crushing Madman" Benson has already gone to the outside world? "

"Back to the lord, although Benson is crazy, he is not brainless and will not leave his post without permission. After all, it has not been long since the last time the goblins attacked the city."

Bert gently stroked his neatly trimmed short white beard and responded: "Therefore, the only thing that can be done within the scope of his authority is to go to the outside world."

After pondering for a while, Bert added: "According to the guesses of my subordinates, it is very likely that he went to check the movements of the Goblin tribe that was attacking the city."

"No way? As a third-level peak powerhouse, you actually dare to check the movements of that goblin tribe?"

On the other side, Ariel blinked her starry eyes in surprise, and said with astonishment on her fair face: "I remember the last time we were in the underground square, the other party sent a fourth-level Goblin Shaman. This means Look, there are probably other fourth-level experts in the opponent's camp."

Having said this in disbelief, Ariel put her hands on her hips, shook her head and sighed: "This guy is indeed a lunatic. Regardless of everything else, it seems that letting him take charge of Luolong City itself is an extremely dangerous thing."

"Your Majesty, your words are wrong."

A crisp and sassy voice sounded, and the tall Orange Bai stepped forward and said, "This person was active on the battlefield of the Extreme South Rainforest Fortress twenty years ago. At that time, it was Leng Yan who was fighting fiercely with foreign enemies. The most intense time.”

He slowly took a deep breath, his orange-white starry eyes were like torches, and continued: "A commander who can survive on a battlefield like Shura Hell cannot be just reckless and crazy. On the contrary, underneath his crazy appearance, he must have wisdom that is hard to match with ordinary people."

"That's true, otherwise he wouldn't have become a backup candidate for the eight generals of the royal family. This alone is enough to prove that he is by no means an ordinary person. At least in terms of talent and training, he is a rare talent."

Nodding in thought, Ariel frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "But, after such a long time, coupled with the baptism of blood and fire on the battlefield for many years, why does it always stay here?" You still haven’t broken through to the third peak level?”

"This question is indeed puzzling. His talent for cultivation, which is different from ordinary people, coupled with his experience in life and death on the battlefield, should be enough to advance him to a fourth-level powerhouse."

Hearing this, Lei Xiao withdrew his gaze from looking down at Luolong City down the mountain, with a trace of confusion also appearing on his face.

"To be honest, Lord, my subordinates have always been very curious about this."

Bowing slightly to Lei Xiao, Burt responded respectfully: "When I was in Luolong City, my subordinates asked Benson many times from the side, but he kept silent. From this, it is not difficult to see that this There must be some secret behind it.”

"It seems that this "Skull-Crushing Madman" is still a rather mysterious guy. "

Having said this, Lei Xiao clapped his hands gently, and then concluded: "Okay, let's start taking action now. The best way to confirm Benson's whereabouts is naturally to go directly to the city to ask."

Bid farewell to Zhou Wu and other lords, as well as the five new mercenary subordinates who stayed here temporarily.

Lei Xiao led the other main followers down the winding mountain road and soon arrived at the southern gate of Luolong City.

Facing the bright sunshine, they walked into the rather majestic city gate and headed straight to the city lord's mansion in the center of Luolong City.

This time, the superficial identities of Lei Xiao and others are still the envoys of Blue Cold Castle.

According to the information Lei Xiao learned from Hodder and Marquis Rose, apart from the battlefield, this "Skull-Crushing Madman" likes nothing more than wine.

Sure enough, after showing the Blue Cold Castle badge they received from Marquis Rose, the group was quickly warmly received by the deputy general who stayed behind in Luolong City.

After paying a few bottles of precious wine worth tens of thousands of gold, Lei Xiao easily confirmed that Benson had indeed gone to the "outland".

However, the other party was very vigilant about the specific number of people and the purpose of the operation, and did not reveal it at all.

After leaving the city lord's mansion in Luolong City, Lei Xiao and his party, donning invisibility cloaks, headed straight for the "Outer Territory".

Although it is still unclear where Benson went.

But in Lei Xiao's team, there are two fifth-level experts with outstanding perception, twin sisters who are good at tracking footprints, and the young patriarch of the Snow Wolf tribe with a keen sense of smell.

In addition, according to the analysis of Lei Xiao and other subordinates, Benson, as the city's commander, cannot leave Luolong City too far.

Therefore, with a limited search range, it is obviously not very difficult to find clues about the other party's whereabouts.

In this way, through the full cooperation of all the main forces and subordinates.

At noon, when the sun was at its hottest, Lei Xiao and his party, who had eaten some random meals on the road, appeared near the entrance of a giant underground cave.

This place is located on the edge of a rugged and barren hilly area, close to the Hyakubu Mountains, and surrounded by a rocky area, which can be said to be extremely hidden.

"Lord, although the traces of cover-up are very obvious, it still cannot escape the eyes of my subordinates and Nanyue."

A sharp voice sounded, and the petite Nan Xing flashed in front of Lei Xiao and bowed to report: "Moreover, there are not only new human footprints here, but also smaller footprints."

"Nan Xing, you mean Goblin?"

After pondering for a moment, Lei Xiao, who was standing next to a boulder, immediately asked.

"Back to Lord, that's exactly what it is."

Twin sister Nan Xing, who was wearing a black outfit, patted the dust on her body and affirmed.

"Lord, judging from the taste, we can prove this!"

I saw Bai Wei pouting her big fluffy white tail, crawling on the ground, sniffing carefully and echoing.

"That makes sense."

After hearing the expected answer, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

Lei Xiao also knew a lot about the Goblin race.

In addition to what everyone knows, this is a cunning and barbaric race that likes sneak attacks.

Another key point is that the habitat of goblins is usually in large natural caves or underground caves.

"So, is this underground cave the home of the goblins that attacked the city before?"

Realizing this, Lei Xiao gently rubbed his chin while pondering: "It seems that, just as Bert said, the "Skull-Crushing Madman" is indeed here to detect the movements of the goblins. . "

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao immediately nodded to the subordinates beside him and ordered: "Aling and Abing will stay here. The others can follow me down to have a look."

Next, uu read, surrounded by his subordinates, Lei Xiao took his own steps.

At this time, the two people walking at the front of the team were Huzhang and Hongye.

In the middle are Lei Xiao, Bai Wei, and Nan Xing Nan Yue on the two wings.

Behind them are Ariel, Chaoyan and Jubai.

Those at the rear were Ye Cang and Bert.

Maintaining a tight formation and approaching the extremely spacious cave, Lei Xiao noticed.

As seen from the surface, this cave is also very spacious, enough for twenty or thirty people to pass side by side.

After advancing about fifty or sixty meters, dark green crystals with a faint light began to appear sporadically on the cave walls on both sides.

Although this kind of crystal embedded in the cave wall could barely allow the group to see the road ahead clearly.

But the cold green light reflected on the uneven wall, and the light and shadow added a bit of a strange atmosphere to the passage leading underground.

"As expected of a Goblin, even the lighting is full of forgiveness."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but shook his head.

In order to hide themselves, the group of people wearing invisibility cloaks naturally cannot turn on the lighting easily.

In addition, unlike the dry surface, the further down you go, the more humid the surrounding environment becomes.

After walking for about ten minutes, Lei Xiao could already feel it.

The solid cave wall, which was illuminated green, had begun to seep water outward.

But at this moment, a sudden and strange voice immediately attracted the attention of Lei Xiao and his group.
