Chapter 780 An Unexpected Encounter

On the bustling commercial streets of Kelly City, a team dressed as foreign merchants and mercenaries was slowly marching along with the flow of people.

Due to the extremely ordinary dress of this business group, it did not attract any attention from the locals.

After all, in this bustling Holy Night commercial city, merchants and mercenaries are nothing more than a normal sight.

Needless to say, this was Lei Xiao and his group who had just entered the city.

Currently, Lei Xiao and his party are not wearing any disguise items, but are all covered by Erza's illusion field.

Under Erza's control, this magical illusion field allows multiple designated targets in the area to perform illusion disguises, which can be described as a convenient occasion.

Moreover, Elusa, who wears Lei Xiao's upgraded sixth-level [Dark Gold Phantom Pupil], has greatly enhanced her illusion camouflage ability on the original basis.

In this way, not only herself, but even Lei Xiao and others' illusion disguises would be difficult for ordinary fifth-order powerhouses to notice.

On the bustling street, after there was no danger of revealing his identity, Lei Xiao, surrounded by his subordinates, calmly looked at the scene of the crowds around him, and nodded thoughtfully.

During the process of going deep into the Holy Night Kingdom, Lei Xiao had already noticed it.

Although it was the first time for him to enter the hinterland city of the Holy Night Kingdom, he didn't feel a particularly obvious sense of difference.

This undoubtedly shows that the customs here are not much different from those of the Lengyan Kingdom, which is also an inland area.

In addition, although serfdom is completely abolished here like Leng Yan, the actual implementation is similar, and the nobles from all over the country are still in charge.

However, judging from the living environment and treatment, it is obvious that the depraved nobles of Leng Yan are better at squeezing.

"But no matter how you think about it, this is not something to boast about, is it?"

Lei Xiao curled his lips, and looked at Ariel, who was following closely beside him.

I saw that Ariel's fair face was full of solemn expressions, and there were mixed feelings in her heart.

Naturally, Ariel saw all the sights along the way.

The prosperity of the Holy Night Kingdom was obviously beyond the expectations of the fifth princess of Leng Yan.

What I have to admit is that everything here is indeed much better than the current Leng Yan.

Ariel clearly understands that if this situation of ebb and flow continues to develop, even if there is no war, the result will be self-evident.

As soon as she thought of the mottled scene where she left the capital, the smoke was everywhere and the earth howled, Ariel's slender and slender body couldn't help trembling slightly.

Just when Ariel was secretly sad, a warm palm was already lightly resting on her shoulder.

For a moment, the warmth from the palm of her hand quickly spread across Ariel's body through her shoulders, making her cold heart feel warmer immediately.

"Lord Lord..."

Feeling the warmth brought by the owner of the palm, Ariel's complicated mood quickly calmed down, and her delicate face became firm again.

And Lei Xiao didn't speak, just patted the other person's shoulder lightly, and nodded to Princess Lengyan who was already completely his own.

After that, Lei Xiao refocused his attention on the bustling scene around him.

I saw that on the well-repaired and spacious street, the double-row carriageway in the middle had been completely emptied.

From time to time, groups of cavalrymen on tall horses could be seen, escorting carriages full of food, passing quickly, gathering in the same direction.

"My lord, it seems that these are the food carts for the Holy Night Army."

Elusa still had a tense and clear voice, and came to Lei Xiao's ears: "From the perspective of the direction, the incoming army should be resupplying in the suburbs south of Kelly City, where the fields and villages are sparse. It's the best place."

"understood."

After listening to Ersha's report, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

At present, everything is in place, the only problem is how to contact the saintess of the Moon Palace.

"According to Ersha, the profession of the saintess Teresa of the Moon Palace is a shadow magister. Although the profession of the saintess is a shadow, it sounds a bit inconsistent, but this profession itself should not be underestimated."

"Shadow magician is a rare profession that can hide in the shadows. It comes and goes without a trace. It is very good at stealth assassination, and it is far more flexible than ordinary magicians. It is generally equivalent to the mage version of an assassin."

"Although there is a word "dark" in the name, just like Ye Cang's profession, it is fundamentally different from the real dark magician. It is not a kind of taboo profession. , one of the few professions that can also restrain the dark department. "

Lei Xiao recalled Ersha's previous introduction, and continued to frowned and thought.

"The most important thing is that the perception of the shadow mage is by no means comparable to that of a powerful person. This means that it is extremely difficult to approach the opponent quietly. After all, the opponent is also a fifth-level powerhouse. , has aroused the vigilance of the other party, I am afraid it will be difficult to sit down and negotiate with the other party."

"Even if we gather the strength of three fifth-level powerhouses to forcibly kill each other, it will not change the status quo. On the contrary, it will attract the attention of the Dark Elf Kingdom. At that time, things will undoubtedly become more complicated."

"The current territory has no chance of winning against the Holy Night Kingdom, let alone the dark elves of Outland. Besides, Teresa is Erza's younger sister. By strengthening this relationship, we can undoubtedly achieve a lot. Things, this is a hundred times better than destroying this relationship."

After Lei Xiao made some calculations in his mind, his eyebrows almost knit together.

"Then, how should I find an opportunity to get close to this extremely mysterious Saintess of the Moon Temple, and then find an opportunity to negotiate?"

While Lei Xiao was thinking to himself, Nan Xing, who was scouting around Kaili City, uttered a whisper: "My lord, the Holy Night Army led by the Saintess of the Moon Palace is about to arrive at the outskirts of the city." !"

"As expected of a shadow magister, his legs and feet are really nimble."

Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, and then responded: "It's enough to monitor from a distance, don't reveal whereabouts."

"Lord, why don't you ask your subordinates to go directly to Teresa."

Just as Lei Xiao shut down the reading, Elusa's crisp voice came over: "If it's my subordinate who is the older sister, Teresa must give her subordinate a chance to meet."

"This time is different from the past. Teresa, the saint of the Moon Palace, is leading the army to attack Leng Yan, and you are Leng Yan's chief court illusionist. Now you appear suddenly, and the purpose is too obvious. The other party may not meet you .”

Lei Xiao's gaze was still wandering around the lively street scene, and he responded: "Unless I really have no other choice, it's best to find a place where I can see the other party directly, and then you will come forward."

As soon as Lei Xiao finished speaking, a sharp female voice that was somewhat familiar came over: "Everyone cheer up!"

"The main force of the Saintess is about to arrive in the southern suburbs, so it is necessary to do a good job of supply there as soon as possible."

Then, accompanied by the neighing of horses, a heroic female knight appeared at the end of the street.

"It was her?"

After seeing the familiar figure clearly, a hint of surprise appeared on Lei Xiao's face.

The person who came was none other than Kara, the female knight I had been with for a short time when I was on the frontier battlefield for the first time.

I saw that she was not wearing a battle helmet, and her short ear-length hair looked very capable and neat. She was still wearing the black knight's heavy armor, which looked quite imposing.

"Obey! Captain Kara!"

Several low-level commanders who were transporting food saluted respectfully, and hurriedly got to work.

"Captain? This guy really got promoted."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows involuntarily as he looked at the radiant figure of the female commander on the horse.

At that time, it was through the hands of Kara that the knotweed easily killed the violent lieutenant general who attacked him, which directly credited the female knight with the great credit for killing the fourth-rank lieutenant general.

"My lord, the armor of this female knight is engraved with the double-moon crest of the Moon Palace Legion. It seems that she should be the army supply officer who arrived first, and is responsible for coordinating the supply of the local city."

Erza's crisp voice came to Lei Xiao's ears: "The importance of supplies to the army is self-evident. Although this female knight is only at the third level, she can be regarded as one of the core positions in the army. gone."

"So, she has a chance to meet the coach Teresa?"

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows again, and immediately asked.

"My lord, that's exactly what happened."

Elusha obviously didn't understand the meaning of Lei Xiao's words, she just replied truthfully in a daze: "I think the other party will go back and report when the army arrives."

"I think I have the best way to perfectly approach Teresa."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly, then waved his hands to signal his subordinates to follow.

"In addition to food, there must be no negligence in vegetables and fruits, and all must be in place!"

Not far from the bustling street, Kara, who was riding on a war horse, tossed her short hair and said cleanly, "The military situation is urgent, so don't delay!"

Just when Kara had finished arranging everything, a tall and straight figure appeared in front of her.

Needless to say, the person who came was naturally Lei Xiao.

After Lei Xiao's signal, only Kara herself can clearly see Lei Xiao's real body in Ersha's illusion field.

"It's actually you?!"

Seeing the sudden Lei Xiao, Cara was taken aback for a moment, and then, her fair face was full of uncontrollable joy.

She has never forgotten this hidden young man since she left on the frontier battlefield.

It was this young adult who not only easily saved his life in the hands of the fourth-rank lieutenant general, but also handed over the great credit for killing the opponent to himself.

Because of this, I was able to transform from an ordinary low-level knight into a glorious Viscount of the Kingdom, and the title was even higher than Yess!
At the same time, he also has a small fiefdom of his own.

This undoubtedly means that the entire destiny of the family has been changed because of him. If it was put before, this is something that I dare not even think about!

More importantly, he became the supply officer of this Holy Night Army after being recommended by the Red Devil General and unexpectedly appreciated by the Holy Maiden.

Surprised, delighted and grateful, Kara quickly got off the horse and walked quickly to Lei Xiao, who nodded slightly, signaling him to come to the side alley to talk.

Just standing still in the empty alley, I saw Kara involuntarily touching her chest and saluting: "I didn't expect to see you here, I am so happy!"

"You don't have to be polite, Viscount Kara."

Lei Xiao looked at the coat of arms representing the title on the breastplate of the other party, and said with a faint smile, "It's really a joy to see you here, and it's an old friend from another land."

"My lord can take me as a friend, I am honored!"

Cara's fair cheeks were still full of excitement, while blinking her slender eyelashes, she took another step forward involuntarily, almost touching Lei Xiao's face.

Then, she realized that she was a little rude, and quickly retreated embarrassingly.

Although I don't know the identity of this young adult, but the fact that this adult can take care of me is enough to make me wake up with a smile in my dreams.

While feeling extremely excited in her heart, Kara regained her composure, bowed again and said, "Thank you sir for not only saving my life, but also bestowing such a rich military service on the battlefield! "

"It's not a big deal. It was just a matter of convenience at the time. I am also very pleased to see you grow up."

Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile, and said with a smile: "By the way, I have one more thing to trouble you."

"I will be more than happy to be able to help the adults!"

Carla nodded immediately without any hesitation, "What do you need to do next?"

"It's very simple, I will lend you a few minutes..."

As soon as Lei Xiao finished speaking, before Kara could understand the situation, his eyes went dark and he passed out.

Behind her, Hong Ye's slender body slowly emerged, under the expressionless white face, still maintaining the posture of holding a knife.

"Ye Cang, learn everything she knows as soon as possible."

Lei Xiao nodded to the muscular priest beside him, and said: "Be careful, this girl will be useful in the future, or she may become a colleague at all, so don't hurt her."

Lei Xiao clearly understood that judging from Kara's performance just now, it shouldn't be very difficult to subdue the other party.

But time is running out, and I have no time to subdue it, let alone explain to the other party.

This approach is undoubtedly the safest one.

After all, this matter is related to the life and death of the territory, so it is natural not to be careless.

As for the matter of subjugation, we can talk about it after the fact.

"Follow your orders, my lord."

Ye Cang stroked his chest and saluted, and started his mental detection.

Not long after, "Kara", who was dressed as a heavy knight, walked out of the alley with renewed vigor, stepped on the horse just now, and galloped away with a whip.

The other unconscious Kara was taken to a nearby hotel and fell into a coma under the supervision of Lian and Chaoyan under Lei Xiao's order.

So far, with the "help" of this sassy female knight who appeared unexpectedly, Lei Xiao and his party are only one step away from the Holy Maiden of the Moon Palace, Teresa.
