Chapter 1136: Lord and sand table

In the King's Command Hall of the Lion's Castle, Lei Xiao stood in front of a huge sand table, holding his chin with one hand and carefully examining the current situation.

Seven days and nights have passed since the red dragons retreated that night.

During this entire week, the internal order of the Cold Flame Kingdom became increasingly orderly, and no further changes occurred.

The purification troops headed by Holy Queen Sophia and Holy Light General Ju Bai have completely removed the sacred marks in the bodies of our soldiers and people by building purification barriers everywhere, so that all our personnel will no longer be affected by mutations. influence and control.

All the innocent priests who were kept in the dark were screened and told the whole story.

With Sophia's influence, the testimonials of our manipulated soldiers, and other supporting evidence we collected on the battlefield of Sunset Fortress, it is not difficult to prove this.

After all, there is no airtight wall. These priests who live in various branch temples all year round have been vaguely aware of some subtle clues in daily life over the years. Coupled with our explanations, they quickly connected everything.

When the priests learned about the series of evil deeds and despicable methods of Ganelon IX, they were shocked and unbelievable, and they all expressed that they wanted the Temple of Light to return to the Holy Light, rather than become in the hands of one person terrible tool.

According to the planned plan, Lei Xiao took advantage of the situation and divided these priests into three parts. The first part continued to stay in the Kingdom of Cold Flame, the second part was active in other human countries, and the third part was mainly deployed in the Kingdom of Grim.

All priests have only one purpose, and that is to tell the truth of the matter. Everything is only to Ganelon IX, not to the Temple of Light.

Lei Xiao clearly understood that compared with the Temple of Light that had stood for three thousand years in the human race, he was, after all, an alien lord who had just arrived. If he directly denied the entire Temple of Light, it would obviously be unconvincing.

Therefore, uncovering the black sheep is undoubtedly our best choice. As long as we successfully eliminate the power of Ganelon IX, the Temple of Light will naturally be under our control, which is hundreds of times better than directly destroying it.

At the same time, Lei Xiao also sent a large number of elite guards to accompany them to protect the safety of these priests. As for whether Ganelon IX would send strong men from the Brotherhood to attack secretly, Lei Xiao was not worried.

If the other party behaves like this, it will be self-inflicted. With the cunning and scheming of the other party, they will naturally not attack these priests easily. They will only describe these priests as tools to be bribed by us.

Sure enough, as Lei Xiao expected, King Ganelon IX quickly expelled all these priests from the Temple of Light, declaring them as degenerates who betrayed the Holy Light.

On the other hand, we continued to act according to the predetermined plan and did not suspend the activities of the pastors.

All Lei Xiao had to do was to reduce Ganelon IX's influence in the human nations and arouse suspicion, so that the nobles and commoners of the human nations would no longer completely turn to each other.

From the moment Ganelon IX expelled the priests, Lei Xiao's goal had actually been achieved.

In this process, the Dark Green Kingdom and its ally Iron Hand Islands, already controlled by Lei Xiao, not to mention their full support, except for the new king of the Kingdom of Grim, who vetoed everything.

The responses of the Pars Empire, the Holy Night Kingdom, and the Canlan Federation were all tepid, and they did not take any too drastic actions, especially the Holy Night Kingdom and the Canlan Federation, whose armies were still trapped in the Eternal Sleep Canyon. We have sent people to contact us secretly many times.

For these envoys from the two countries who tried to let Lei Xiao let go of the army, Lei Xiao was nowhere to be seen. Although the water source in the Yongmian Canyon was scarce, the water energy particles were still sufficient, enough to allow the opponent's army to survive.

And with this handle in our hands, the Holy Night Kingdom and Canlan Federation will naturally not act rashly.

"Your Majesty the Prince, our army is overwhelmingly powerful. We have just captured Liuguang Fortress and are already approaching the hinterland of the Kingdom of Grim!"

As the door of the command hall opened, a middle-aged herald kneeled down in front of Lei Xiao, caressed his chest and saluted.

"I know, let's go down and rest."

Lei Xiao waved his hand slightly and focused his attention on the huge sand table again.

I saw Lei Xiao's eyes move, and he fixed his sight on a fortress built on the mountain, which was the Flowing Light Fortress of the Kingdom of Grim.

After so many days of back-and-forth deductions, coupled with the detailed maps provided by Lawrence, Lei Xiao already knew the terrain of the Kingdom of Grim very well.

"Liuguang Fortress is the eastern gateway to the hinterland of Grim Kingdom. Now that it has been captured, it is very close to the sphere of influence of the Temple of Light."

Lei Xiao's eyes moved slowly, and he nodded thoughtfully.

To the west of Flowing Light Fortress, there is almost a flat plain area, which is the hinterland of the Kingdom of Grim, which is the central area with the largest area.

Compared with the more complicated terrain of the Kingdom of Cold Flame, the Kingdom of Grim is simpler and clearer.

Except for the lack of a bit of kingly courage and courage, there is nothing to criticize about the other party. At least he has a lot more sense of responsibility than those fallen nobles, but his ability is limited.

"Your Highness, where are you? If His Highness hadn't been strategizing, how could our army have been so powerful?"

Karin chuckled, and then sighed helplessly: "It would be great if His Highness the Prince came to my time, and I wouldn't end up with the unappealing title of king."

"Didn't Your Majesty also cultivate a brave Cold Flame Lord like His Majesty the King of Steel?"

Lei Xiao tried his best to comfort the other party and said with a smile: "In addition, His Majesty appeared at the critical moment to save the Cold Flame Kingdom, and his achievements are enough to be praised by future generations."

"His Royal Highness is still able to comfort people, unlike those ancestors who only lecture me."

Although his hair was gray, his face was wrinkled, and he even wore a crown on his head, Karin still pouted and looked like an old child.

"While I am away, the royal capital will be under the protection of His Majesty."

Lei Xiao didn't know how to answer this alternative king's words, so he could only smile helplessly.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, Your Highness not only saved my son, but also my granddaughter. I will always remember such a great kindness in my heart."

Karin nodded solemnly and said: "I will protect this place together with my father, and I will never let His Highness be distracted!"

Needless to say, the father Carlin mentioned was naturally the landless king George.

"Then please leave it to your majesties."

Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile and responded.

Although the title of the father and son kings does not sound very reliable, with the help of the miraculous function of the Lion King Palace, the elite puppet army summoned is real, and it is easy to greatly increase the safety factor of the royal capital.

"Your Highness, then I won't disturb Your Highness. I just want to go see my son Burdett."

Knowing that he couldn't be of much help here, Karin trimmed his beard, said goodbye and left.

After watching the other party leave the command hall, Lei Xiao turned his attention to the giant sand table again.

"According to the planned plan, as long as Catherine and I continue our unstoppable march, it won't be long before we meet under the opponent's main city. By then, it will be the end of Naganelon IX."

Lei Xiao looked at a very conspicuous golden city sign in the center of Grimm's hinterland, which represented the Holy City of Glow.

Feeling excited in his heart, Lei Xiao frowned slightly.

Although everything was going on in an orderly manner, I always felt that something was wrong.

"If you think about it carefully, this week has been too smooth. Not only did the reinforcements sent by the new King Grimm be extremely limited, but there was not even a shadow of a strong Brotherhood figure, and the opponent would never be able to capture him without mercy..."

Lei Xiao frowned and thought for a moment, and finally it suddenly dawned on him: "So ~ King Ganilon IX must be planning some unknown conspiracy?"

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao's brows almost knitted into a knot.

Thinking about it this way, this week's unusual calm is probably a precursor to the coming storm.

"There is no turning back. Now I have no choice but to move on."

Lei Xiao's face was filled with fighting spirit, and he secretly said in his heart: "As the saying goes, if you know that there are tigers in the mountains, you will go to the tiger mountains. Let me see what other tricks the other party can pull off."

After making up his mind, Lei Xiao's brows stretched again and he began to continue thinking.

But having said that, before that, all of his trump cards had been exposed to the opponent's nose.

Before officially fighting against the opponent, maybe he can make some preparations to add a ray of light that breaks through the endless haze.

Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, the familiar and rapid voice prompting for words suddenly rang.
