Lord of the Nation: My talent is 100 million points strong

Chapter 426 In the Valley
Under the leadership of Fanyin city lord Orr, who both got on their horses, and Kelly's father Gail, Lei Xiao, Tina, Ryan and other ten knights also stepped on the tall horses that Kelly had prepared in advance.

Immediately, the whip was raised and the horses neighed, and the group of people, escorted by hundreds of Fanyin City's elite cavalry, galloped out of the city.

And according to the plan, the five people hidden under the cloak, Hu Zhang, Hong Ye, Ye Cang, Nan Xing, and Nan Yue, were tightly surrounding Lei Xiao.

For the strong men under Lei Xiao's command, keeping up with the speed of these horses was naturally a piece of cake.

Accompanied by the dust rising all the way, the earth trembled, and the mighty horse team came out from the south gate of Fanyin City, and flew straight towards the mountain basin in front of it.

"If the destination is a short distance, riding this kind of ordinary horse is also a good choice."

As the wind was flying like lightning, Lei Xiao squinted his eyes and thought as he felt the gust of wind blowing continuously.

"But it is undeniable that under high-speed movement, the horse's endurance is very limited, and it cannot move forward in complex terrain such as mountains or dense forests. Therefore, it is naturally the way I used to move, and the efficiency is several times higher."

While Lei Xiao was thinking to himself.

As the ever-shrinking city wall behind him got farther and farther away, the mountain peaks in front of him also began to become clearer.

Lei Xiao on the horse frowned, looking around.

It can be known from the information provided by Kelly before.

Not long ago, in the mountain basin south of Fanyin City, a small ancient ruin of an unknown race buried underground was discovered.

And Orr, the city lord of Fanyin, who got the news at the first time, immediately sent people to investigate and explore.

After many days of hard work, Orr's subordinates finally accidentally found the mysterious [Eternal Night Magic Box] deep in the ruins.

It was also because of this that the mysterious organization attempted to snatch the [Eternal Night Magic Box] for the first time before the auction.

Feeling the violent jolt brought by the horse's back, Lei Xiao lowered his body while continuing to think.

In the first snatch, because the No. 7 black-robed person was not present, although the mysterious organization was unsuccessful, the two third-rank elders of the Auer family, the lords of the Fanyin city, were finally bloodied on the spot.

This is also the direct reason why Orr became enmity with the mysterious organization.

Taking this as an opportunity, the enraged city lord Orr of Fanyin used the auction as a gimmick and [Eternal Night Magic Box] as a bait to attract the mysterious organization to come to snatch it for the second time in order to take revenge. plan.

"Of course, the two parties would never have thought of it, but in the end I got a big deal."

Lei Xiao looked at the back of Fanyin City Lord Orr who was galloping and leading the way not far ahead with the rustling robes, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

During the auction, Baron Polly, who was the auctioneer, once said that the ancient ruins discovered at that time were not one, but two.

And through Kelly's many secret investigations, I further learned.

The mountain basin ahead, which is the area where the [Eternal Night Magic Box] was discovered, is still heavily guarded.

It is not difficult to see from this that the second unexplored ruins are located near the first ruins.

"In the same area, are there two ruins of different types? Interesting."

Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the temporary checkpoint for soldiers at the entrance of the valley ahead, his face showed another hint of curiosity.

According to common sense, since these two ancient ruins are so close to each other, they should belong to different areas of the same ruin.

But the Fanyin City Lord was certain that these were two completely different ancient ruins... How did he define this point?

If this is true, why would there be another completely irrelevant ancient ruin next to one ancient ruin?
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this with some doubts.

The galloping horse team has already stopped at the gate of the soldier checkpoint at the entrance of the valley.

Lei Xiao noticed while pulling the rein on the horse's mouth.

This checkpoint is much larger than what I saw from a distance just now.

Not only can one see archers in the forest from time to time on the surrounding cliffs, but looking inward, there are also a large number of milky white soldier tents built in a sheltered place next to the entrance.

The room where the flags are flying looks like a heavily guarded military camp.

Seeing the city lord Orr coming, the commander who guarded the gate first saluted respectfully, then quickly signaled other soldiers to move away the deer village and horses blocking the way, and raised the landing pole of the checkpoint.

At this point, the city lord Orr and the others leading the way started galloping towards the valley again.

"It seems that the second unexplored ruins are also in this mountain."

Lei Xiao rode his horse and whipped his whip, and also followed closely.

Straight through this valley, a mountain basin with a wide view came into Lei Xiao's eyes.

There are beautiful mountains and clear waters here, with continuous mountains in the distance and undulating hills nearby, and there is a green scene everywhere.

"Although it is far smaller than the Songyin Mountains in scale, it can be considered a good place with mountains, rivers and green waters."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and thought to himself.

While following the horse team, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and continued to observe.

On the east side of this intermountain basin, there is a middle area between a mountain stream and a mountain wall.

There is a large array of military tents neatly arranged one by one, just like the one at the entrance of the valley.

Vaguely, a simple fortress made of wood can also be seen, located in a relatively sparse forest.

On top of the wooden fortress, there are figures, symbolizing the banner of Fanyin City's garrison, fluttering in the wind, which makes people feel solemn.

And in the far west, there is also a simple fortress, the configuration is almost the same as that on the east side, and the fortress and tents echo each other, as if they are guarding something.

"These two wooden fortresses and the barracks next to them seem a little too eye-catching. No, maybe it was built in these two places just to attract attention."

While walking quickly, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and murmured in his heart: "If there is no accident, the real location of the entrance to the second ruins is not in these two places."

Sure enough, under Orr's leadership, the group neither marched towards the east fortress nor the west fortress, but galloped straight towards the middle of the basin.

In the process of advancing, Lei Xiao noticed that not far from the left hand side of the road, there were a large number of mounds scattered around, and some broken walls and ruins that were lower than the surface could be vaguely seen.

"That should be the location where the first ruin of [Eternal Night Magic Box] was discovered. We must come back and see if we can find any new clues."

Gazing at those ancient ruins, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

It didn't take long for the mighty horse team to finally stop in front of a dense forest.

Just when Lei Xiao and his party got off their horses.

rustling...

There was a sudden rustling of bushes.
