Chapter 591: The allegiance of 5 mercenaries

"oh?"

Hearing the sound, a curious look suddenly appeared on Lei Xiao's face.

"My lord, because the family of the current Huiyan City Lord occupied the fief of the subordinate family more than two hundred years ago, so, together with his original fief, there are two adjacent houses in the sphere of influence of the opposing family. City."

Shaking his head unwillingly, Ryan said it all.

"This situation is almost the same as Tiegebao."

Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao motioned for the other party to continue talking.

"My lord, in the recent period, the city lord of Huiyan is planning to hand over the throne of the city lord of another city to one of his sons, but he is still a little hesitant and doesn't know which one to choose."

Nodding to Lei Xiao, Ryan continued: "This made several of his heirs start to move in secret."

"Is it another power struggle?"

Looking at the sparkling lake beside him, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

"Lord Master, that's exactly the case."

Following Lei Xiao's line of sight, he also looked at the mirror-like lake, and Ryan continued: "During this period of time, including Cliff, the open and secret struggles of several heirs have developed to the point of confrontation, and some It's getting worse."

"The ultimate goal of Cleaver's training of the third-rank Rockhorn Wolf King is probably to deal with his brothers."

After a pause, Ryan added: "Furthermore, at present, the other main powerhouses of the Broken Blade Knights have all gone out to perform tasks, and only the subordinates are nearby, and the soldiers above the Knights' squad have to go through another process." The approval of Gray Rock City, so far, the matter is very obvious."

"When we came to this forest, we did clean up more than 20 second-tier elite guards hiding in the dark around us, and it's impossible for you to kill so many people alone."

Slowly moving his gaze away from the lake, Lei Xiao looked at Ryan again and said, "Understood, since dogs are biting dogs here, then we have one last question left."

"Lord, are you talking about those innocent mercenaries?"

Ryan pondered for a moment, then suddenly said.

At this moment, Ryan couldn't help showing a look of embarrassment on his face.

It can be imagined that the only variable now is those five mercenaries left.

Once someone spreads the matter, it will definitely affect the layout of the lord.

So, to avoid this from happening, there are only two ways.

The first is to silence, and the second is naturally to become a companion.

Thinking of this, Ryan hesitated to speak, but he still didn't open his mouth after all.

All in all, no matter which way the lord chooses, he will completely obey.

Of course, it would be even better if the lives of five people could be saved...

"Originally, I only planned to subdue you alone, but since I met them, I might as well take them under my command."

Looking at Ryan's urgent eyes, Lei Xiao smiled faintly.

Currently, the population of the territory is "1947/2000".

Therefore, the addition of these five people has no effect on Lei Xiao.

As for strength, Lei Xiao only needed to take out 3 Qi Condensation Pills, and naturally the three mercenaries at the peak level of Tier 1, like the other two, could all reach Tier 2 level.

"Thank you so much for your kindness, my lord!"

Hearing this, Ryan looked happy and thanked him again and again.

"Okay, let's go back."

Leaning down again to help Ryan up, Lei Xiao immediately spoke.

In this way, he returned to the dense forest just now, and after some understanding, Lei Xiao learned about it.

All the footprints and battlefield traces of our own side have been cleaned up, and some insignificant spoils of war have been obtained from the two of them.

Among the five mercenaries, the most seriously injured were the mercenary captain and the vanguard in the team, followed by the ranger, while the female priest and the old magician were almost unscathed.

However, even the two most serious, after being treated by two fourth-order powerhouses Ye Cang and Ju Bai in turn, they are completely out of danger.

During this process, the five mercenaries could not wait to crawl at Lei Xiao's feet, and their gratitude was beyond words.

At this time, he was subordinate to everyone, and he had already appeared in a territory that looked like a small village.

I saw that the layout here is quite decent, with well-arranged wooden houses tightly surrounding the lord's mansion in the center.

Moreover, the passages formed by the staggered houses are all surrounded by solid wooden fences. As long as a little modification is made, this place will immediately become a solid wooden camp.

At the same time, a slightly chilly wind gushed over Lei Xiao's cheeks. This was the chilling feeling that could only be felt on high-altitude mountain tops.

"Is it a level 3 lord's mansion?"

Lei Xiao nodded slightly when his eyes finally settled on the large wooden house in front of him.

"Master Xiaoshen, long time no see!"

On the other side, a dark-complexioned, tall and muscular male lord who was about thirty years old immediately greeted him excitedly. It was Zhou Wu whom Lei Xiao had contacted before.

Beside him, there were four younger young people, two men and two women, both in their early twenties.

Lei Xiao had seen these four lords who looked equally excited.

I saw that the clothes on the five lords were no different from those of the local aborigines, and they were quite well dressed. Even their complexions were much better than at the beginning... except that they were all dark for several times.

"It seems that you are doing well."

Smiling and nodding, Lei Xiao greeted the five of them one by one, and casually left a box of daily necessities including high-grade liquid essence, and a box of new clothes as thanks. For the lords at this stage , which is still an absolute hard currency.

Among them, especially the high-grade liquid essence similar to shampoo and shower gel, it is a luxury that only nobles can afford.

Amidst the ecstatic thanks of the five people, Lei Xiao first ordered Zhou Wu to take the five new mercenaries who had not recovered from the teleportation and settle them down in a private house, then asked about Luolong City recent situation.

"Back to Xiaoshen Boss, Luolong City has been very quiet during this period, and there has been no more siege incidents."

Ning Mei thought for a moment, Zhou Wu scratched his head, and responded: "However, there is a crazy officer with a high status in the city these few days, but he has not appeared."

"A mad officer with a high status?"

Sitting on the wooden pier that Zhou Wu had just moved out, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and nodded for the other party to continue talking.

"To tell you the truth, Xiaoshen, in the large training ground near the center of Luolong City, every day from early morning after dinner until dark, there is a crazy officer who leads a large group of armored soldiers to practice there."

Nodding to Lei Xiao, Zhou Wu continued: "The loud and strange yelling of passwords, and the occasional series of devilish laughter and low-pitched roars gave us a lot of nightmares at the beginning."

When Zhou Wu said this, the other lords also nodded.

The young male lord wearing glasses leaned forward and echoed, "But having said that, after you get used to listening to it, you still feel very motivated!"

The male lord's name is Li Xin, and he is also on Lei Xiao's friend list.

"That's right, I always feel empty in my heart if I don't hear it."

Zhou Wu took up the conversation again, and said, "This situation has been going on for three days."

"So that's how it is."

Nodding thoughtfully, Lei Xiao looked at Burt, the giant ax general who was standing beside him, with a questioning look in his eyes.

On the other side, Burt understood, and immediately bowed to respond: "My lord, from the description, this person is exactly the Lord of Fallen Dragon, Benson, who is called "Skull Crushing Madman". "

"Is that so?"

Lei Xiao frowned slightly, and pondered: "Is this person not in the city now?"

"This is almost certain. Back then, when my subordinate was in Luolong City, even if he was entertaining his subordinate, that guy spent most of the day on the training ground."

Speaking of which, Bert's old face couldn't help but frown together: "I have to say, that guy is really a weird guy who can't ~ I'm getting more and more fond of this person. more interested."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao thoughtfully said again: "Since he's not in the city, where will he go? He won't be missing like Huo De, right?"

"Lord Lord, if Benson really disappeared, then Luolong City would have been in chaos by now. After all, this fortress city is, in layman's terms, a giant military camp the size of a city. An astonishing event."

After pondering for a moment, Burt responded respectfully: "Thus, this subordinate believes that he should have gone somewhere on his own initiative."

"Bert, don't you already have the answer in your heart?"

Hearing this, the curiosity on Lei Xiao's face became more obvious.

"Return to the lord, if the expectations of the subordinates are correct, Benson may only go to one place."

Burt still maintained his bowed posture and replied, "That's Outland!"
