Chapter 557: The Allegiance of the Marquis of the Rose

Realizing this, the Marquis of Rose opened his mouth wide, causing a huge wave in his heart.

Before that, when he saw Lei Xiao with his own eyes, and there was indeed a powerhouse of the fifth rank, the tiger stick, beside him, although Marquis Rose seemed calm on the surface, he was already touched in his heart.

You know, even among the three princes fighting openly and secretly inside and outside the capital, there is only the eldest prince's faction, which has the support of the white knight!

This undoubtedly means that, at least in terms of top combat power, Her Royal Highness is indeed qualified to compete with the three princes!

"It's worth mentioning that, as the name suggests, the White Knight is a fifth-tier strongman who strictly abides by the spirit of chivalry. Although he is powerful, he rarely participates in the intrigues between the three princes."

While being shocked in his heart, the Marquis of Rose flicked his orchid finger and fell into deep thought again.

"It is said that even the ruthless eldest prince personally issued certain shady assassination orders, which he once refused to carry out, and only loyally guarded the eldest prince's Zhouquan."

"Therefore, the eldest prince, who has the support of most of the traditional nobles, has not gained an absolute overwhelming advantage even though he has the allegiance of the white knight, a powerhouse of the fifth rank."

"After all, in the past two or three hundred years, due to complex reasons such as conflicts of interests and ideas, Leng Yan's new nobles, who have always been at odds with Leng Yan's traditional nobles, have gradually formed an extremely terrifying scale, and they have exhausted their resources. The strong and the wealth are fully supporting the second prince."

"As for the fourth prince who claims to be supported only by wealthy businessmen, he is still very strong. This undoubtedly means that there is obviously a powerful mysterious force behind him."

Thinking of this, Marquis Rose brought his thoughts back to reality, and looked at Lei Xiao with reverence.

And now, right in front of him, Her Royal Highness, the weakest princess, after receiving the full support of Her Majesty Ke Qing, has two mighty Zhenguo-level fifth-order powerhouses by her side!

While his mind was agitated, Marquis Rose, whose rough face was flushed, continued to think.

"However, although I don't know the terrifying origin of this young and mysterious Your Excellency Ke Qing, if there are only two fifth-order powerhouses, it is naturally far from enough. After all, a large-scale battlefield and a small-scale fierce battle Fighting is very different."

"You know, the power of the other three princes has already spread all over Leng Yan, both openly and secretly. Each prince has at least hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of heavy soldiers in his hands."

"Once the curtain of war begins, no matter how powerful the two fifth-tier powerhouses are, one person can contain or even destroy an army of ten thousand people, but the other army can still easily take advantage of this time to completely destroy Kongqing Town. Razed to the ground."

"All in all, although the strength of the fifth-order powerhouse can be called the ceiling of the human race's combat power, it can almost kill any strong man below the fourth-order power, but it does not mean invincible. Once the energy in the body is exhausted, it will naturally be the end of the hero. It's time."

"Thus, the wars of all ages have shown that in most cases, what the powerful fifth-tier powerhouse does not directly serve as combat power on the battlefield, but is used as an excellent tactical hole card. At the critical position and moment, give the opponent a thunderous fatal blow."

Thinking of this, Marquis Rose's eyes lit up, obviously realizing something.

"It's no wonder that on the border battlefield, Your Excellency Ke Qing defeated the three main armies and five miscellaneous armies of the Holy Night Army with only one main army and two miscellaneous armies with low morale..."

"It is conceivable that Your Excellency, Ke Qing, obviously used these two fifth-order powerhouses as trump cards to the extreme, and adopted some other unexpected and powerful means, which finally achieved such a big victory!"

Looking excitedly at Lei Xiao, Marquis Rose sighed in his heart: "I remember a general who experienced many battles once said that the most difficult thing in this world is to guess the opponent's true intentions on the battlefield. "

"Your Excellency, Ke Qing, faced the famous Red Devil of the Holy Night Moon Hall on the ever-changing battlefield, but he was still able to plan a strategy, so that he won such a big victory. From this, it can be seen that Your Excellency Ke Qing is not only in strength. It's extremely low-key and hidden."

At the same time that Marquis Rose was filled with emotion.

On the other side, looking at the marquis of Rose who sometimes threw an inexplicable excited look at him, holding an orchid finger, Lei Xiao shivered involuntarily, and instantly felt his goosebumps drop all over the ground.

"I think I finally realized clearly that there is no reason why Ariel has nothing to do with the other party."

Thinking of this, dumbfounding, Lei Xiao regained his spirits, and then said to the person standing in front of him, "Okay, Hong Ye, I will leave the rest to you."

"Don't worry, my lord, this subordinate will definitely clean up this place."

Hong Ye bowed slightly and smiled at Lei Xiao, the flame in his hand rose violently again.

"Your Excellency, the strong woman, please pay attention to the other wine barrels that are still intact while eliminating that nasty slime..."

After nodding, the Marquis of Rose seemed to think of the missing rose again. While scanning the ground, he added: "As for the second prince's envoy, he turned halfway in the second district of fine wine. circle, the biggest suspect.

However, although the envoys of the fourth prince only stayed for a short while, one of them had been chatting with the subject. Now that I think about it, it might be intentional to distract the subject. "

"So that's the case. It seems that the suspicion of the messengers of the second prince and the fourth prince cannot be ruled out. However, I think there is a third possibility."

Gently rubbing his chin, Lei Xiao murmured: "That is, among the envoys of the second prince and the fourth prince, there is actually a group sent by the eldest prince to pretend to get rid of you.

Moreover, the shrewdness of this trick is that if you miss it, you can transfer your hatred to the other two princes. "

"this"

Hearing Lei Xiao's words, Marquis Rose was taken aback for a moment, and then he suddenly understood, nodded and said: "Your Excellency, you are right, judging from the eldest prince's sinister and cunning character, which seems to be righteous and awe-inspiring, this possibility It's really not small!"

After finishing speaking, the Marquis of Rose swallowed involuntarily, and then muttered to himself: "At first, I thought that without the participation of the eldest prince, the pressure on me would be less. Are you watching?"

"If that's the case, then what is the city lord planning to do next?"

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao continued: "It is conceivable that if the other party fails this time, they will not let it go. I am afraid that the next time we will meet, it will be a more violent storm."

"Your Majesty is right."

Sighing involuntarily, the Marquis of Rose said frowningly: "Originally, I planned to grit my teeth and not get involved in this power dispute, but judging from the current situation, it is precisely because of this stupid decision that the My life, and even the entire family's foundation, were almost destroyed."

After speaking, Marquis Rose looked at Lei Xiao's indifferent face, and couldn't help but be full of thoughts.

Just as I thought before, compared with the other three waves not long ago, the envoys of the princes from the capital.

Your Excellency Ke Qing and His Royal Highness the Princess in front of you both have the same purpose of wooing yourself, but both their sincerity and attitude are completely different from the previous arrogant and unreasonable messengers.

Even, at the expense of his own danger, he helped him resolve this fatal crisis.

Thinking of this, Marquis Rose felt grateful, first bit his big lips, pondered for a moment, then finally made up his mind, and tentatively said to Lei Xiao: "Your Majesty, the first time you and Your Highness the Princess Is the purpose of coming here countable?"

"Of course, it would be great if someone like Your Excellency the City Lord joins in."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao smiled faintly.

"Very good!"

Hearing the sound, Marquis Rose nodded to Lei Xiao first, and then came to Ariel, ready to salute.

However, before he could make a move, Ariel quickly waved her hand, and said: "Qing Shuanghua, the person you want to be loyal to is not me, but my master."

After all, Ariel bowed to Lei Xiao, and then obediently stood aside.

"Her Royal Highness's master?! Your Excellency Ke Qing, who are you?!"

Seeing this ~ Rose Marquis couldn't believe his eyes, and was stunned on the spot, looking dumbfounded.

"Ariel, tell this surprised City Lord everything about me."

Nodding to Princess Lengyan, Lei Xiao still kept a faint smile.

Immediately afterwards, Ariel briefly described Lei Xiao's status as a lord of another world, the matter of preparing to support her to become the Queen of Cold Flame, and the terrible catastrophe that might come at any time, with Marquis Rose.

"It turns out that what we are seeing is just the insignificant power struggle in front of us, but what the lord is watching is the terrible catastrophe that is about to happen in the distance and will sweep the entire continent. The gap here is simply Words can't describe

"But it is such a big man who can conquer even the princess, but is willing to come to this underground wine cellar at the risk of encountering unknown monsters for me, an insignificant little city lord..."

Thinking of this, Marquis Rose didn't hesitate, and immediately knelt down in front of Lei Xiao, saying sincerely, "Subordinate Shuanghua? Oak, willing to swear allegiance to the Lord Lord to the death!"
