Chapter 783 The Lord and the Holy Maiden of the Moon Temple (Part 2)
Looking at Teresa's astonished face that slapped the table, Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile, and did not rush to respond, but raised his hand to signal Erza to pour a cup of hot tea for her.
Teresa also realized that she had lost her composure, and sat back on the chair calmly.
"Your Excellency, your phrase "playing dirty" seems a little too much, right? "
Seeing that Teresa's excited mood calmed down slightly, Lei Xiao responded indifferently: "At present, my territory is in ruins, but you are aggressively leading the army to take advantage of the void, trying to rekindle the fire and weapons. In this piece of land riddled with holes, isn't it considered to be playing tricks?"
"As the saying goes, the winner is king. When the Holy Night Kingdom was weak, the Cold Flame Kingdom also fell into trouble."
Teresa's delicate and fair face was filled with composure again, and she raised her willow eyebrows and said, "Facing a vicious beast full of scars, it is only the mercy of our Holy Night Kingdom to give it the last blow."
"As expected of the Saintess of the Moon Palace who is in charge of half of the Holy Night Kingdom, her ability to speak out is really admirable."
Lei Xiao's expression was still calm, and he smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then why would you call me "playing dirty" in my way of dealing with it? "Updated chapters at novelhall.com
"Your Excellency, the word game is over."
Teresa snorted softly, and said coldly: "Could it be that you really plan to cause an all-out war between the human kingdoms and my dark elf kingdom?"
"Your Excellency, you have already put the sword around my neck, do you still expect me to swallow this thousand-year-old secret forever?"
Lei Xiao shrugged, looking indifferent.
Hearing what Lei Xiao and Teresa had said, Ariel, who had been a little confused all along, finally came to her senses with her starry eyes flickering.
It turned out that the lord's way of dealing with it was to reveal to the public that the Dark Elf Queen had been secretly protecting the Holy Night Kingdom for thousands of years.
As a member of Leng Yan's royal family, Ariel clearly understood.
Although the nations of the human race have been fighting continuously for years, and have a deep hatred for each other, but they are all human races, they have one thing in common, that is, they value their own blood very much. This is the pride of the human race and a necessary means to consolidate power.
Needless to say, the royal family at the top of the pyramid of power, even the aristocratic class further down, it is almost impossible for a foreign race to occupy a place.
This directly led to the fact that the half-elf tribe who fought with His Majesty the Hero King in the past was eventually stripped of their titles under the dual pressure from both inside and outside the kingdom, until they were completely expelled from the kingdom.
All in all, never allowing other races to enter the core ruling class is already the consensus of the nations of the human race, and it is also an untouchable bottom line.
The Royal Family of Holy Night, which has been under the protection of the Moon Palace, undoubtedly completely violated this point.
In this way, things are very clear.
Once the lord makes public that the dark elf queen is secretly helping the holy night royal family.
Then, the Holy Night Kingdom, which broke the rules, will immediately become the target of all the human nations, and will be attacked by groups, and it will be close to extinction.
But because of the promise made by the Dark Elf Queen, the Dark Elf Kingdom will naturally not sit idly by. This will undoubtedly ignite an all-out war between the Dark Elf Kingdom and the human nations.
No matter how powerful the Dark Elf Kingdom is, it is absolutely impossible to be the opponent of the entire human race. After all, the huge base of the human race countries is far beyond the comparison of any other race. This is beyond doubt.
"As expected of the lord, this is undoubtedly a direct stab at the vital point of the opponent."
While Ariel was excited in her heart, she cast admiring gazes at Lei Xiao beside her.
However, Teresa, who was directly opposite the dining table, had an even more gloomy face.
As the Holy Maiden of the Moon Temple chosen by Her Majesty, Teresa clearly understood.
His first task, apart from maintaining the authority of the Holy Night royal family, is to protect the agreement between Her Majesty the Queen and the first emperor of the Holy Night, even at the expense of his life.
Once this real secret is leaked out, regardless of the final direction of the war, my family of priests may be the first unlucky person to be questioned by Her Majesty the Queen!
That is the name of the mysterious organization, it turned out to be called the Black Abyss Brotherhood!
You know, this is important information that I have been thinking about!
"I have dealt with the mysterious organization many times, and I can be regarded as an old opponent. I haven't figured out the name of the other party. How did Teresa know?"
Surprised, Lei Xiao stared directly into Teresa's starry eyes, trying to find a clue from them, while continuing to think in his heart.
"Also, even though Nightmare Knight didn't wear a white mask, I did find a Shura mask with 00004 printed on it in his storage ring, which is exactly what Teresa said."
Just when Lei Xiao was secretly astonished, there was a smile on Teresa's fair face, and she continued: "Why, Your Excellency, did I tell you something that you don't know?"
"Let's get back to the topic."
Lei Xiao gently put down the goblet in his hand, and changed the subject: "I did kill the Nightmare Knight. Although that guy caused me some trouble, it was just a needless struggle."
"Your Excellency, have you seen the true face of the Nightmare Knight?"
In Teresa's starry eyes, there was a little more excitement that could not be restrained, she leaned forward slightly, and hurriedly asked.
"That's natural."
Keenly aware of the urgency expressed by the other party, Lei Xiao's face did not have a trace of turmoil, and he asked lightly: "Your Excellency, what are you asking for?"
"Your Excellency, Ke Qing, has already killed the Nightmare Knight, which means that he has become enmity with the Black Abyss Brotherhood, so I have nothing to hide."
Teresa frowned and thought for a moment, then raised her head and said bluntly: "Your Excellency, not long ago, these guys secretly attacked the main hall of the Moon Palace, trying to take away a certain treasure of my Moon Palace, which made us The strong men under my command suffered heavy losses, but fortunately I found a helping hand in time, so that group of hateful guys did not succeed."
"oh?"
Looking at Teresa's solemn face, Lei Xiao's calm face finally showed a wave, and his eyes widened involuntarily.
It never occurred to Lei Xiao that the mysterious organization... no, the Heiyuan Brotherhood is also related to the Moon Palace, and they are hostile to each other.
"As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. Taking advantage of this, maybe Teresa can really suspend her attack."
"The most important thing is that I can get more information about the Black Abyss Brotherhood from Teresa! This is what I wish for!"
Aside from the excitement in his heart, Lei Xiao's thoughts were still running fast.
"By the way, when I was in the Phantom of the Ancient Battlefield Ruins, I once heard No. 7 black-robed man mention the big mission of the Holy Night King."
"And at the entrance of the abandoned mine outside the city of Furnace Castle, the two brotherhood powerhouses guarding the gate also mentioned the big task of Holy Night, saying that at least four Shuras were dispatched... It seems that what they are referring to is There is no doubt that the Moon Palace will be attacked."
"Except for the Moon Palace, which is comparable to the inner courtyard of the palace, there is no other place in the Holy Night Kingdom that can attract four fifth-tier powerhouses to dispatch at the same time."
Lei Xiao pondered for a while, and did not immediately exchange information with the other party, but asked in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, how do I know how much of what you just said is true or not?"
"If you yourself are a member of the Black Abyss Brotherhood and come to test how much I know about your organization, wouldn't I just be hooked?"
After finishing ~ Lei Xiao's eyes were sharp, and he stared at Teresa's star eyes again.
"Your Excellency's concerns are not unreasonable, but please don't forget, Your Excellency, I am a dark elf who is loyal to Her Majesty the Great Queen, not a human race. If the dark elves want to run rampant in the human race's territory, they will not be sneaky."
Teresa raised her brows, she couldn't help showing a little more pride in her words, and continued: "And this sneaky human organization, it is impossible to allow me, a dark elf, to get involved, everything is self-evident .
"My lord, Teresa is not lying. As Teresa's twin sister, the subordinates can still detect this."
Erusa stood up from her seat and reported to Lei Xiao, rubbing her chest.
"Understood, so the Holy Maiden wants to get information about the Brotherhood from me?"
After sweeping away the worries in his heart, a meaningful smile appeared on Lei Xiao's face, and he smiled at Teresa who was directly opposite him: "Since you want something from me, Your Excellency the Holy Maiden should at least ask for it." Show some sincerity?"
