An Ran's night passed by in the blink of an eye.

Although the outside of Buluo Fortress is full of ice and snow, the temperature inside is pleasant. This is due to the ubiquitous heat magic circle and special magic coating in the fortress.

In the early morning of the next day, when the refreshed Lei Xiao walked out of the bedroom, all the subordinates of the main force had already waited outside the door of the room.

"Good morning, my lord!"

Seeing Lei Xiao's figure, the subordinates stroked their chests and saluted Lei Xiao respectfully.

"Morning, everyone."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, his eyes wandered, and finally fell on Ariel's slender body.

I saw that this girl was still dressed neatly and had her long slightly curly hair tied back, but on her fair face, there were some red and swollen marks around her eye circles.

Seeing Ariel's exquisite face with a bright smile, although her face was faintly stained with tears, Lei Xiao immediately reacted.

It seems that this pair of princesses and sisters who haven't seen each other for a long time must be talking to each other, making the years of estrangement completely melt away.

Sure enough, before Caroline arrived, Lei Xiao learned about it through Ariel's description.

It turned out that in the past few years, the reason why Caroline never saw Ariel every time she returned to the king was not to alienate Ariel deliberately, but because the eldest prince and the second prince were obstructing it.

The two always make up various reasons so that one of Caroline and Ariel is not in the palace or is entangled in trivial matters.

In addition, Caroline had to attend various military meetings and inspect the barracks, and even when she returned to the capital, she rarely stayed in the palace, which made the relationship between the two sisters even more distant.

"By checking with Sister Wang one by one about all the things that have happened over the years, the subordinate finally fully understands that those two guys even concealed the messages and gifts left by the subordinate and Sister Wang in order to drive a wedge between the subordinate and Wang. sister relationship."

"At that time, the subordinates were still young, coupled with their unruly and self-willed temper, they would never let go of their bodies and take the initiative to find Sister Wang who couldn't get away. This made the misunderstanding accumulate deeper and deeper."

In Lei Xiao's room, Ariel lowered her eyebrows and sighed softly: "The reason why those two guys did this is also very simple, that is, they are already preparing to compete for the throne."

"Although you and Caroline are far less powerful than those princes, your relationship has always been very good, and you also have the right to inherit the throne. It will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the other party."

Lei Xiao first motioned for Ariel to take a sip of the freshly brewed black tea, and then nodded thoughtfully: "With the throne still in the air, if you unite, no matter what your position is, it will be difficult for them with ulterior motives. That said, it is indeed a big obstacle."

"What the lord said is very true."

Holding the steaming teacup, Ariel nodded and said, "After that, just as the lord said, although Sister Wang came to her senses later, as she became more active on the battlefield, Sister Wang His body was also stained with too much blood, in order not to let his subordinates feel the hostility, he simply made a mistake."

After finishing speaking, Ariel first took a sip of tea, and then sighed again.

"Okay, it's always a good thing to clear up the misunderstanding with your sister Wang."

Lei Xiao patted Ariel's slender shoulder lightly, and said with a smile, "Shouldn't we be happy about a good thing?"

"My lord is right."

Feeling the tenderness brought by Lei Xiao's palm, Ariel gradually calmed down, then nodded and said: "Speaking of which, thanks to the lord, the subordinates were able to eliminate the barrier between Sister Wang and Sister Wang."

Speaking of this, Ariel shook her head helplessly and said: "Sister Wang actually apologized to her subordinates, saying that when she learned that her subordinates were assassinated, all her subordinates had already gone to Kongqing Town. And in the next few battles, she didn't help either."

"Caroline is already shouldering the important task of guarding the Unfallen Fortress. In addition, this place is very far away from us, and there are several princes in between. It's no wonder she is there."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and said with a faint smile: "But from now on, she and we are already partners on the same journey. Since we are already partners, we should naturally support each other instead of just asking for it."

Lei Xiao clearly understood that before he subdued Caroline, in addition to showing his strength, he had to give her enough benefits to make the alliance more stable and lay the foundation for the final subjugation.

"The lord always thinks the same as his subordinates. Although Sister Wang has been apologizing to her subordinates, the subordinates have never done anything for Sister Wang."

Ariel nodded heavily, and made up her mind: "Just like what the lord said, whether it is for the Lengyan Kingdom or for Miss Wang, the subordinates must grow up as quickly as possible until they are enough to carry a country. the weight of."

Having said this, Ariel blushed slightly, and added in her heart: "The most important thing is to have a stable rear for the stars and seas of Lord Lord."

Just when the two were talking here, there was a knock on the door, and Caroline's crisp voice came from outside the door: "My sister, my sister Keqing, breakfast is ready, let's move to the dining room."

After that, under the guidance of Caroline and Hilda, Lei Xiao and his party ate a hearty breakfast with Northern characteristics in Caroline's exclusive restaurant.

Compared with the usual breakfast, in addition to hard bread and oatmeal as the main food, there are a variety of bacon and sausages, as well as cheese dishes and various sweet jams, as well as crystal clear northern spirits.

At first glance, the table is full of meat and calorie bombs, which is impressive.

During the meal break, Lei Xiao was keenly noticing the details of the last reinforcements with Caroline.

The eye circles of the third princess of Lengyan were also slightly red, but compared to Ariel who was wearing light makeup, Caroline was not so obvious under the cover of thick eye shadow.

After the meal was over, Lei Xiao and his party bid farewell to Caroline and Hilda, left Buluo Fortress, and returned directly to Crystal Blue City.

Afterwards, Lei Xiao moved to the edge of the northern border via Crystal Blue City, then walked to Wangxing City on foot, and finally returned to the territory through Wangxing City's transmission network.

As for why Lei Xiao didn't directly use the city return crystal, it was to understand the itinerary carefully.

After all, this is also the route that the reinforcements from the north will pass in the near future, until they reach the surrounding area of Wangxing City, giving the opponent a surprise blow.

After returning to the familiar territory, the first thing Lei Xiao did was to go back to the top floor of the mansion and carry out the two daily tasks of receiving the recruitment order and reverse pushing.

During this process, since the other two alchemist guilds had already reported the required alchemy materials, Lei Xiao also directly decomposed the 10-day alchemy materials for the other party's use.

"Compared to the Alchemist Guild of Songlin City, the strength of the other two alchemist guilds in Tiegebao and Songluo City is similar. This undoubtedly means that there are already three alchemist guilds that are already doing their best to alchemy potions for me!"

Overjoyed, Lei Xiao called Jiang Li to his lord's office by reading aloud.

As for the tasks of Jiang Gracilaria, there are two tasks.

The first item is to hand over a large amount of alchemy materials that have just been disassembled to Tina of Tiegebao and Rose Marquis of Songluo City, and instruct them to have full authority to deal with the affairs of the Alchemist Guild in their respective jurisdictions to ensure the supply of potions.

The second item is to order Jiang Li to go to Kongqing Town first, obtain part of the food agreed with Caroline from Lin, and then send it to Buluo Fortress, and then assist the imminent remote villages.

As a space magister, Jiang Li already had a large storage space, and with the assistance of Crystal Blue City, it was naturally easy to do all of this.

When Jiang Li took the order to leave, Lei Xiao held another regular meeting and informed his subordinates that he had made a secret alliance with the third princess Caroline, which greatly boosted the morale of the subordinates.

Of course, out of prudent considerations, Lei Xiao did not let the subordinates continue to spread the matter of the secret alliance to other non-subordinate leaders, in order to prevent the two princes' eyes and ears from hearing the truth.

At present, the territory has reached the critical point of life and death, so it is natural that there can be no mistakes in any detail.

After the meeting, after the old butler Ward's prompt.

Lei Xiao also built ten large dining halls near the barracks for the newly recruited Frank, Gray and other subordinates yesterday, for the elite soldiers guarding the territory to eat collectively.

"I was too busy yesterday to summon Frank and the others and learn about their past, so I ignored this matter."

Outside the main entrance of the territory, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the ten brand new dining halls neatly arranged.

In this way, under the current scale of the territory, all infrastructure is fully configured.

After that, Lei Xiao and the old housekeeper Ward finalized the corresponding cooking system to relieve the pressure on Rudy and others.

Lei Xiao clearly understands that even with the support of a professional chef team and a logistics squadron, it is still a little bit powerless to provide food for nearly 4,000 people with quality and quantity.

After the old steward took the order to leave, all matters in the territory have been dealt with.

"Next, it's time to carry out the key task of improving combat power."

Lei Xiao patted the ash on his hands, walked towards the lord's mansion, and nodded thoughtfully.

Just like what I thought about last night, the fastest way to increase my strength that I can do so far.

That is to cultivate two more elite third-tier squadrons, as tactical forces that may be mobilized at any time, which is also a key part of being able to defeat the two princes' armies and gain vitality.

"At this stage, in addition to the eligible elite second-tier peak squadrons under my command, there are also two half-elf magic archer squadrons that have lifted the blood seal."

"And the two third-order potions I have in hand can cultivate a physical squadron and a magic squadron."

"The half-elves represented by Bai Zhi are agile and good at fighting in the jungle, which just fits the terrain of the territory."

"In addition, the range and rate of fire of the half-elves are higher than ordinary archers, but after becoming a magic archer, they can even enchant arrows at will, which further improves the overall damage. The best candidate for an elite squadron."

Just when Lei Xiao frowned and thought of this, the ice demon Gals came up to him with Xue Ya and Fa Xia.

"See Lord Lord!"

The three alchemists touched their chests and saluted at the same time, bowing their heads respectfully to Lei Xiao.

"You don't need to be too polite, Senior Garth, how is your body recovering?"

Lei Xiao waved his hand, and asked the ancestor of the Bingliu family who still looked a little vain.

"Returning to the lord, the subordinates have recovered seven or eighty-eight. The efficacy of the fifth-order healing potion and the fifth-order healing scroll is indeed a miracle!"

Speaking of this, Gals's old wrinkled eyes showed a touch of irrepressible gratitude.

While being grateful, Gals seemed to think of something, quickly waved lightly, and 12 brand new ice knights appeared in front of Lei Xiao.

"My lord, these alchemy puppets are the stock of my subordinates. After a whole day of debugging and repairing by my subordinates, their strength is no different from those of the previous ice knights. I hope to help my lord."

Gals bowed again, and said to Lei Xiao, "Besides, I have some raw materials for refining ice knights. I think it won't take long to provide more combat power for the lord." gone."

"Then it's hard work for Senior Garth. Before the injury is fully recovered, Senior Garth will put all his energy on the Alchemy Ice Knight."

Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction, and began to inject energy into the new ice knights in order to gain control of the ice knights.

Before this, Lei Xiao had asked Gals in detail.

I learned that the alchemy technology that Gals is proficient in is a variety of rare functional potions including shape-shifting potions, and there is no permanent increase in strength.

In addition, it is well known that alchemy potions need to bear the corresponding magic backlash.

So before the opponent's injury fully recovered, UU reading www. uukanshu.com still requires high refining technology, but alchemy puppets with relatively low pressure are more appropriate.

Not long after, Lei Xiao jumped with joy in his heart after completely gaining control of the brand new Ice Knight.

This undoubtedly means that the third-order peak ice knight in his hands has reached the size of three teams!

Coupled with the two squads of Archer and other guardians, the combat power carried by him alone is already close to the strength of an ordinary army!

At the same time that Lei Xiao was happy in his heart.

I saw Xueya and Faxia coming forward again, and each handed over a small and exquisite brocade box filled with strange fragrances: "My lord, this is the achievement of my subordinates in the past two days!"

"Good job, and you all worked hard."

Lei Xiao took the potion respectfully handed over by the second daughter, and nodded in satisfaction.

Lei Xiao is no stranger to this strong and strange fragrance, because he has seen it twice before.

"Another brand new [Shuangyue Condensation Pill], and a brand new [Star Pattern Magic Pill]?"

"It seems that I can get more than two Tier 3 elite squadrons today!"

After briefly checking the properties of the new potion, Lei Xiao started to upgrade directly while thinking about it.
