Chapter 1003: Mia's lament and the lord's thoughts
Listening to the cheers that got louder and louder, Lei Xiao first ordered the soldier captain on standby to send Lilith to her family. Then he jumped lightly and remounted his horse with Ariel one after another.
Holding the reins in his hands, Lei Xiao did not move forward directly, but gently pressed his palms downward to signal the crowd to calm down.
Seeing Lei Xiao's gesture, the huge venue fell into silence, as if the mute button had been pressed.
"During the period of turmoil in the royal capital, in addition to the touching perseverance of ordinary people, there was also a group of people who were not afraid of the power of the tyrants and fallen nobles and still stood in their respective positions. It was precisely because of their perseverance. , this devastated kingdom did not completely fall apart."
Lei Xiao's eyes moved and finally fell on the crowd of nobles represented by Wu, and he solemnly said: "They are the nobles who have always faithfully fulfilled their obligations and responsibilities and are still loyal to the royal family. They are worthy of the title of noble and worthy of the title of noble." The honor of the family is worthy of the Hero Kings motto.
At this point, Lei Xiao's voice became a little louder and he continued: "I solemnly declare here that their efforts will never be in vain, and they will all get their due rewards. I hope they can continue to fulfill their mission as King of Heroes. The motto becomes "a shield to protect the common people, not a sword to pierce them." "
"Thank you, Your Excellency, guest. We are willing to do our best and swear allegiance to the royal family to make the kingdom prosperous and powerful, the people to be stable, and enjoy peace forever!"
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, an old nobleman with white hair and beard stepped forward on a walking stick. While stroking his chest and saluting, the old man responded with excitement on his face.
You know, when a few princes and fallen nobles came to power, these nobles who were unwilling to join in the corruption were all emptied of power, subjected to crazy suppression and exclusion, lived under threat every day, and became dispensable. fringe aristocracy.
And now, Lei Xiao not only affirms their persistence in front of everyone, but also plans to reuse them. For them, this is nothing less than a supreme gift and honor!
"Thank you, Your Excellency, guest. We are willing to do our best and swear allegiance to the royal family to make the kingdom prosperous and powerful, the people to be stable, and enjoy peace forever!"
As soon as the old noble said this, the other nobles also touched their chests and saluted, and said in unison with excitement on their faces.
"Remember, no matter whether you are a noble or a commoner, as long as you care about the kingdom and the royal family, your highness and I will see it."
Lei Xiao first nodded to the noble team, and then while urging the horses to move forward again, he said: "As long as we work together, we will surely create the immortal glory of the Cold Flame Kingdom, and we will be praised forever by future generations. !
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, the whole place became excited again.
Both the nobles and the common people had excited expressions on their faces, causing high-pitched cheers to rise one after another, almost deafening.
"Long live your guest!"
"Long live your Royal Highness the Princess!"
Amid the cheers of tens of thousands of people, Lei Xiao walked side by side with Ariel towards the huge gate of Lion City.
In this process, except for five fifth-level powerhouses and more than fifty fourth-level powerhouses.
The third-level elite forces such as the third-level half-elf demon archer squadron, the third-level werewolf warrior squadron, and the third-level priest squadron specially selected by Lei Xiao, as well as the last five elite legions, also appeared one after another.
Especially the half-elf squadron, all of which were handsome young men and women, immediately aroused waves of warm cheers as soon as they appeared.
"They are the elegant half-elves! They were once the heroes of the kingdom and made great achievements for the kingdom, and now they are back!"
People cheered and cheered, rushing to pay the highest respect to the half-elves.
You know, the reason why His Majesty the Hero King unified Leng Yan back then was undoubtedly due to the half-elf archers under his command.
Their agile movements and accurate archery skills, as well as their heroic appearance on the battlefield for His Majesty the Hero King, have become the yearning of countless Lengyan children in their childhood, and they often appear in the legends and stories told by bards and parents.
Although they were suppressed by several subsequent kings and eventually expelled from the royal family, people have never forgotten the achievements of the half-elves.
And now, under the leadership of Lord Keqing, the brave and capable half-elves have appeared in people's sight again. How can this not make people extremely excited?
Mia, who noticed the fiery glances from the crowd and was specially arranged to join the half-elf team by Lei Xiao, could not help but have a myriad of thoughts in her heart as her long eyelashes trembled.
"The main roads in the royal capital have been destroyed like this, which shows how crazy the struggle was at that time."
Observing this, Lei Xiao's mind could already picture the **** scene in which the royal capital was filled with smoke and screams and fierce fighting could not be heard.
While sighing in his heart, Lei Xiao couldn't help but look at Ariel, who was walking side by side.
One can imagine how desperate Princess Leng Yan, who had been growing up in the palace, felt when she saw that the once peaceful and peaceful capital had turned into a purgatory of blood and fire, with even her own life in danger.
However, what surprised Lei Xiao.
At this time, Ariel's fair face did not reveal a trace of timidity or sadness, but instead was filled with determination.
This kind of determination rising from the depths of her heart, set off by the enthusiastic crowd around her, became even more sacred and inviolable, adding a bit of nobility and majesty to Ariel.
"It seems like she has really grown a lot."
Lei Xiao slowly withdrew his gaze and nodded with satisfaction.
Amid people's awed gazes and warm cheers, Lei Xiao and Ariel rode forward on horseback, and soon arrived at the main venue of the triumphal ceremony, not far from the central square of the royal capital.
In front of the crowded central square, not only Wu, Caroline, Hilda, Bai Lao, and all the nobles who came out of the city to greet them at the beginning were already in place, but there were also a number of strange and powerful figures.
These powerful men are dressed in different attires. Some are wearing robes, some are wearing armor, and some are wearing pure white priest robes. But without exception, they are all fourth level or above in strength, and even some are even stronger. Including a fifth-level powerhouse surrounded by vast aura.
Through the initial exchange with Wu Yi, Lei Xiao has learned the identities of these powerful people, who are members of the three major neutral organizations of the human race, the Alchemist Guild, the Mercenary Guild, and the Temple of Light.
As the managers and key members of the Cold Flame Kingdom branch, it is not surprising that they appear here because they have a lot of connections with the royal family.
"According to Wu Wu, the Cold Flame Kingdom branches of these three major neutral organizations originally had fifth-level strong men in charge, but currently the fifth-level strong men from the Alchemist Guild and the Mercenary Guild are not in place."
"The former returned to the alchemist's headquarters half a year ago to report on his duties in the mysterious Alchemy Square Tower, but has not returned yet, while the latter has gone on an unknown mission, and only the chief light bishop of the Temple of Light, Severn, is in office. "
At this point, Lei Xiao's video moved and finally landed on a kind old man wearing a luxurious red priest's robe.
This kind old man with a nice smile and white hair and beard looks very much like a standard upright old magician in movies.
"Is he a powerful priest of the fifth level and seven stars? Although the priest is very good at treatment and assistance, the light attribute attack spells he masters are still enough to kill any low-level powerhouse in an instant. His strength should not be underestimated, not to mention that this guy is also the chief light bishop. It is said that there are only nine Light Temples in total, and their status is second only to the legendary Pope."
Lei Xiao's eyes only stayed on the other party for a moment, and then moved away.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that the fifth-level powerhouse had extraordinary insight and would definitely notice his gaze immediately. From the perspective of etiquette, naturally he could not stare at the other person all the time.
"Now that Ariel is about to be crowned, UU Reading Although these three neutral organizations have never interfered in the change of power in human countries and do not pose any threat, the relationship with them is also extremely important. After all, whether they are mercenaries The Guild, the Alchemist Guild, or the Temple of Light are all indispensable components for the functioning of a country."
Lei Xiao's eyes swept over the members of these three neutral organizations one by one, and nodded thoughtfully.
After Ariel was successfully crowned, her next goal was obvious, which was to conquer the entire human world.
Under this premise, the three neutral organizations must be an insurmountable hurdle, and sooner or later they will have to face each other head-on.
But at least at this stage, he does not have enough strength to make these three historical forces surrender.
Therefore, the best way at present is undoubtedly to maintain friendly relations with the three to ensure the normal operation of the Cold Flame Kingdom, then further get closer to the three, and finally wait for the opportunity.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, he and Ariel had already arrived in front of the central square. (End of chapter)
