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

Chapter 758 Lords and City Building

Lei Xiao drank the amber champagne in the glass, took the new wine glass that Lin had already poured, and continued to speak loudly: "Second glass, to those soldiers who died on the battlefield, we will inherit their unparalleled courage, Let’s pass on the glory they carved with blood and fire! Respect the heroic spirits!”

"Respect the heroic spirits!"

Tens of thousands of people in the audience raised their wine glasses in unison and drained them together with Lei Xiao.

“Third cup, here’s to the road ahead that is still full of thorns and ruggedness.”

Lei Xiao picked up the third poured goblet with piercing eyes: "May we be able to overcome all obstacles and bring the dawn of hope to every corner of this continent! Here's to the future!"

After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao raised his head and drank the champagne in one gulp.

"To the future!"

Following Lei Xiao's drinking behavior, tens of thousands of people in the audience also drank the third glass of wine in one go.

"My soldiers, my people, enjoy the food and party, tonight belongs to everyone here."

Lei Xiao looked at the increasingly heated atmosphere in the audience, nodded with satisfaction, and then, accompanied by his subordinates, left the celebration venue filled with laughter and laughter.

After that, Lei Xiao first collected the trophies collected in Kongqing Town, then said goodbye to Lin, Fang Hai and others, and returned to the territory with his main subordinates.

As another main battlefield outside Kongqing Town, the direct subordinates who guard the territory also play an important role.

What is even more exciting is that with the main powerhouses of the magic system headed by Hong Ye supplying energy for the absolute defense barrier, even the direct subordinates guarding the territory were able to fight off the fierce siege of several traditional aristocratic legions. A miraculous record of zero battle losses.

Through Jiang Lei's teleportation technique, when Lei Xiao appeared at the door of the lord's mansion, he immediately smelled the ultimate delicious food.

The aroma of freshly baked buttered bread, mixed with the sweetness of butter and bees, and the smell of burnt cumin barbecue, made the corresponding food picture immediately appear in De Leixiao's mind.

"It seems that the territory's celebration banquet is also ready."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and then led the main subordinates towards the direction of the territory's canteen.

Under the bright moonlight, Lei Xiao noticed as he arrived near the territory celebration banquet venue.

Although the banquet was attended by only more than 1,600 direct subordinates excluding the two shadow squadrons, and more than 1,600 people from the two surrounding surrendered races, the size was only one-third of the main venue in Kongqing Town.

But the warm atmosphere at the banquet was no less than the former, or even better.

Just like in the square of Kongqing Town, the banquet was not held separately in each canteen, but was arranged in the open air next to the canteen.

At a glance, the magic light ball suspended in mid-air flashed in the venue, making people look longingly.

It also reflected the steaming delicacies on the long dining tables, making the atmosphere everywhere filled with the joy of victory.

"Lord, you are back!"

I saw Ward, Rogge and Bai Zhi, the old butlers in charge of the banquet, immediately came up to us, bowed and said, "According to your instructions, the celebration banquet in the territory has been prepared!"

"Very good, thank you for your hard work."

Lei Xiao smiled and nodded, then said to Ward and others: "Let's go there together."

Under the expectant eyes of more than 3,000 subordinates, Lei Xiao, as the absolute master of the territory, once again stepped onto the stage that had been set up.

Since the members of the three direct squadrons previously stationed in Kongqing Town have all returned to the territory for treatment and did not hear the speech just made in Kongqing Town, Lei Xiao's main purpose this time was to commend them for their achievements.

In addition, Lei Xiao also has a major decision to announce.

After boarding the high platform, Lei Xiao did not speak immediately, but focused his attention on the subordinates in the front row.

The first thing that caught his eye were the two territorial commanders covered in bandages. They were none other than the captains of the two great swordsman squadrons, Aaron and Bard.

The lips of these two middle-aged strong men were still slightly white, but compared with the sluggishness in the Guangming Healing Center before, they were obviously much better.

Nodding to the two commanders, Lei Xiao's eyes moved and fell on the other subordinates of the Great Swordsman. The conditions of these subordinates were not much better, and most of them were seriously injured.

Some are even like Aaron, even the top of their head is covered with bandages, with only their eyes, nose and lips exposed.

Lei Xiao's gaze glanced at each of the Great Swordsmen's subordinates one by one, then slowly returned it, and then said loudly: "Fellow soldiers of the territory, everyone has worked hard in this battle."

"It was the courage and strong barrier built by each of you that allowed the territory to remain standing despite the siege of tens of thousands of traditional noble soldiers, and in the end gave the opponent a fatal blow."

"As your lord, I am very pleased, because from each of you, I have seen unparalleled courage, tenacity in the face of powerful enemies, unyielding in the face of desperate situations, and hot blood from beginning to end."

"You are worthy of being the bravest soldiers, worthy of being the guardians of the territory, and worthy of being my best warriors! As long as you are by my side, I will be fearless, and I will walk into the darkness without any scruples, and then Light up the darkness!"

Lei Xiao's eyes focused on Aaron and Bard again, and said solemnly: "I think everyone already knows that there are 100 best companions in this battle, leaving their blood in Kongqing Town forever. Those are the soldiers of the Great Swordsman Squadron.”

"Under their protection, none of the members of the magician squadron who should have been most easily slaughtered by the undead warriors were seriously injured, and all of them survived. It was also under their protection that Kongqing Town was attacked the most violently. The City Lord’s Mansion still hasn’t fallen in the sea of ​​skeletons.”

"They used the big swords they held tightly in their hands to illustrate their bravery and the unyielding territory. They used their armors to build an indestructible fortress, sacrificing their robes to block the undead. The warrior’s fatal attack!”

"Their courage will forever be recorded in the history of the territory and Kongqing Town, and their achievements will never be forgotten by us!"

Lei Xiao's voice was a little louder again, and he continued: "I declare that the two squadrons of great swordsmen led by Captain Aaron and Captain Bader have all won the title of "Knight", and they will all have The right to independently design battle flags and numbers. "

"Your battle flag will always fly over the territory, and your numbers will always exist in the territory's battle order!"

After a pause, Lei Xiao slowly added: "At the same time, the territory is expanding soon, and a sleeping place for warriors will be opened in the outer city to commemorate them. Let these dead warriors witness the future glory of the territory with us. Bar."

"Thank you very much, Lord! My subordinates are willing to go through fire and water for your Lord!"

Aaron and Bard had already burst into tears, and together with other members of the Great Swordsman Squadron, they knelt down in front of Lei Xiao.

Whether it is an exclusive battle flag or an exclusive number that will never be revoked, for them, both represent the highest honor of a warrior!

What makes them even more gratified is that those who died in battle will have a real resting place from now on!

"Get up, you deserve this."

Lei Xiao smiled and nodded, nodding to the members of the Great Swordsman Squadron.

Then, Lei Xiao slowly raised his wine glass and solemnly said to the subordinates in the audience: "Respect the 100 great swordsmen who died on the battlefield!"

After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao raised his wine glass and spilled the champagne on the ground.

"Honor the 100 great swordsmen who died on the battlefield!"

The subordinates in the audience also made the same action one after another.

"In addition to the two members of the great swordsman squadron, the magician squadron led by Zhusha also showed amazing courage in the attack and defense of Kongqing Town. They will also be awarded the title of "Knight"..."

Next, Lei Xiao commended the three squadrons in Kongqing Town.

The third-level half-elf squadron and the third-level werewolf warrior squadron were commended for their outstanding performance in this battle, and all members were also awarded the title of knight.

The other elite squadrons and the two surrendered races were a small number of typical characters who were awarded the title of knight.

As for many of the main players and subordinates, they also received unstinting praise from Lei Xiao.

Hong Ye, who held up the territory's absolute defensive barrier and then fought the Nightmare Knight, dominated the battle in Kongqing Town and powerfully killed the No. 7 black-robed man, and even rushed to help at the critical moment, finally crushing the Nightmare Knight. Needless to say, there are three fifth-level powerhouses like Jiang Li.

It also includes Ariel, who stood up in the square and rekindled people's hope, Erza, who played a key role in the "Dream Devouring Realm" and played a role in the territory's attack and defense, and Nanxing Nanyue, who beheaded several enemy commanders, Ye Cang, who saved many lives with his healing skills, and so on.

These main subordinates have all received knight titles, except for Ariel, who is a princess, and Erza, who has the title of viscount.

The subordinates such as Jubai, Bert, Buren, Benson, Orr, Shuanghua, Hongshi, Tina, and Ryan who are fighting outside the territory and are not in the territory have long had the titles of nobles and even grand dukes and kings. Then he received verbal praise for the time being.

As for the subsequent rewards, naturally they will be a large amount of loot after upgrades.

After all the reward matters were completed, Lei Xiao took a deep breath and said again: "Before the banquet officially begins, I have an extremely important decision that I want to solemnly tell everyone."

As soon as Lei Xiao said these words, the audience fell silent, and pairs of eyes that were filled with admiration and curiosity were all cast towards him.

“That’s building a city!”

Lei Xiao smiled faintly and said: "I think everyone has already seen that the current territory can only be regarded as a military fortress. It is still very far away from the real city. In addition, the territory has been exposed. There is no need to hide anymore.”

"The most important thing is that the lord's mansion is about to be upgraded. It is bound to use the current territory as the inner city and continue to expand outwards. Therefore, one of my next important goals is to build a city and gradually turn the territory into a real city!"

"In the city that is about to be built, every soldier present will be able to have a house of his own, and will also be allowed to get married, have children, and reproduce. I will establish a complete military pay system and leave system as support. Let everyone truly take root here!”

"During your vacation, each of you can go to any city under my control to visit and spend money. If you choose to start a family and start a business, you can also bring your family to live together in the outer city that will be established soon."

When he said this, Lei Xiao's eyes softened a bit: "All the direct subordinates present were summoned by me from other continents through recruitment orders."

"Since you chose to abandon your original home, follow the call regardless of everything, and fight for me regardless of everything, then as your master, your ruler, I will give you a real home!"

When Lei Xiao said this, the direct subordinates present were already so excited that tears filled their eyes. They knelt down on the ground again and said excitedly: "Thank you very much, Lord!"

The two surrendered races, the werewolves and half-elves, also showed excited expressions.

For thousands of years, their ancestors had tried countless times to integrate into human society, but they all ended in failure, and even paid an extremely heavy price.

And now, this undoubtedly means that they, the aliens who have been excluded by the human race, will also be able to reintegrate into the more complete human social system!

For them, everything the human race possesses is undoubtedly an extremely desirable and mysterious existence!

Looking at the heated atmosphere that instantly exploded in the audience, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

The matter of building a city has been something I have considered for a long time.

If everything goes smoothly, with your own strength and financial resources, a majestic city, like a rising star, will surely rise from this land very quickly!

Building a city of your own is the true romance of an alien lord!

The safety factor of the lord's mansion located in the core area of ​​the city will also be greatly improved, and it will also be able to carry out more diversified development and absorb more talents.

"Letting my direct subordinates truly have a family is a small reward for my loyalty to them."

"At the same time, this will also give them one more reason to fight. This is undoubtedly the only way to further increase the soldiers' fighting spirit after maxing out their loyalty."

"All in all, no matter from which aspect, the city construction matter needs to start formal project establishment and advancement."

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao's face became serious again, and he said sternly to his subordinates: "Everyone, before we can officially advance the construction of the city, we still have a big and thorny problem in front of us."

As soon as Lei Xiao said this, the excited subordinates in the audience all became solemn and continued to listen attentively.
