Chapter 1620 Invitation and Long-lost
Following the voice, they discovered that the person coming was Qiduo, who had been leading her tribe to guard Bingshi City.
As Lei Xiao's foundation became stronger, the strength of Qiduo and the half-elves of the Moon-Chasing Clan also greatly improved.
It goes without saying that all the half-elf soldiers are at level four and are moving towards level five. Qiduo herself has also been rewarded with a precious opportunity to advance to level six.
In the past few days, Lei Xiao has distributed the rewards one after another.
Not only Qiduo, but also many other subordinates who remained at the peak of the fifth level, as well as powerful people with outstanding achievements, all got the opportunity to advance to the sixth level.
Of course, as the leader of the human race, Lei Xiao's focus of improvement is mainly on the human race and his subordinates, such as a group of human monarchs, human generals such as Bert, and Ariel's sister Caroline, etc.
As for Gray Old Man, Joniel, Chris, Fanny and other original sixth-level powerhouses, Lei Xiao also distributed sixth-level star-up potions to them, which was enough for them all to advance to the peak of the sixth level, including subordinates such as Qiduo who had just got the opportunity to advance.
"Your Excellency, there is a communication request from the Shadow Market!"
Qiduo touched her chest and saluted, respectfully handing the communication magic stone to Lei Xiao. Her fair face was full of excitement, and it was obvious that she had not yet recovered from the excitement.
Not long ago, after receiving the magic potion bestowed by Lei Xiao that permanently enhanced his strength to the sixth level, a series of auxiliary promotions, and subsequent star upgrades, the half-elf chief was overwhelmed with joy.
This is not only because she herself has obtained the opportunity to move towards a new hall of strength, but also because the entire clan, which is directly under Lei Xiao, has been greatly improved following Lei Xiao, which is equivalent to entering the ranks of third-rate forces in the outside world.
If it had happened before, this would undoubtedly be something that all the tribesmen would never dare to even think about!
"Thanks for your hard work."
Lei Xiao took the magic stone and smiled at Qi Duo.
After activating the magic stone, the figure of our manager was immediately projected.
I saw that around our manager, Manager I, Manager L, Manager K, and Manager M were also standing beside him. The figures of the five heavily armored knights looked quite eye-catching.
Before Lei Xiao could say hello, the five managers all said in unison: "Congratulations to His Majesty the Human Race for taking control of the entire second-rate power's territory!"
From the tone of their voices, it was obvious that the five managers' voices were filled with indescribable respect.
In particular, our manager who initially chose to cooperate with Lei Xiao, Manager N, was filled with regrets.
When he first met Lei Xiao, the human race was just a weak force that had just entered the outside world. It didn't even have the qualifications to obtain an invitation to the market, let alone be able to compete with any third-rate force.
And now, the once weak human race has stood at the pinnacle of second-rate forces, respected and supported by other second-rate forces. This is simply an epic among epics!
Next to our managers, L, K, and M, the three managers in charge of the third-rate power areas, needless to say, even Manager I, who is in charge of the second-rate power area, was also filled with irrepressible respect.
You must know that the current human emperor controls a million fifth-level legions, and the fourth-level legions are even larger than ever before. He has many powerful men and countless talented people under his command.
As for resources and wealth, needless to say, they are simply countless.
It is no exaggeration to say that, apart from those first-rate forces standing at the top of all races, and a few transcendent existences such as the Market Brotherhood, His Majesty the Human Race can already be regarded as the number one among all races below it. It is not an exaggeration to describe him as having tremendous power!
It is naturally an honor for them to be able to meet such a giant!
"You are too polite. You have also made great contributions in this battle. I will definitely give you a generous gift in return."
Lei Xiao looked at the five managers in turn and said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? This is what we should do!"
A group of managers waved their hands and spoke in unison.
However, although they said so, it was not difficult to tell from their joyful tone that they all looked extremely expectant.
With Lei Xiao's assistance, they don't have to worry about the market ranking. Although they can't compare with the managers of those first-rate forces, they can naturally do whatever they want below them.
"By the way, Your Majesty, the reason we contacted you this time is mainly because of an important matter. I hope Your Majesty will not refuse."
Our manager collected his thoughts and spoke again.
"Oh? You can say whatever you want, Mr. Administrator."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and continued to listen to the other party's words.
"To be honest, Your Majesty, according to the latest information from the Market Brotherhood, the once-in-a-century Market Ranking Conference will be held tomorrow night. This conference is to re-rank our rankings, and on the other hand, the Market Brotherhood will host a dinner to thank the distinguished guests who have always supported us."
Our manager chuckled and continued, "Each of us has been given five invitations this time. Your Majesty, please do us the honor of attending this dinner!"
"So that's it."
Lei Xiao's eyes lit up and he nodded thoughtfully.
Since our managers have all obtained corresponding quotas, other managers must have also had quotas. This undoubtedly means that in addition to our side, there should be many high-level or powerful people from first-class forces participating. This is undoubtedly a great opportunity for me to get in touch with these people.
Furthermore, just as I had just thought, at this stage, if I want to make rapid progress in a short period of time and reach a level on par with the first-rate forces, it is undoubtedly extremely limited and difficult to achieve.
The thank-you dinner of the Miying Market is undoubtedly a great opportunity to break through this limitation. As long as you get to know some strong people from first-rate forces, or get to know some high-level people in the Miying Market, these are undoubtedly great ways to obtain sixth-level unupgraded items!
Thinking of this, although Lei Xiao was already very excited, he still coughed lightly and said calmly: "Since you all sincerely invite me, I will naturally not refuse."
"Great, then one of my places will be reserved for Your Majesty, and Your Majesty can appoint the other places!"
Without waiting for other managers to speak, our manager quickly spoke.
"Your Majesty, I want to reserve my place for you as well!"
Several other managers also rushed over, even pushing our manager out of the screen.
According to the requirements of the market brotherhood, the more distinguished the invited guests are, the more helpful it will be for the subsequent rankings and the more face it will bring. No wonder all the managers are so eager to attend.
"Okay, everyone, we are all on the same side, so what's the difference between us?"
Lei Xiao noticed something was going on immediately. He waved his hand slightly to signal them not to fight for it, and then said with a smile, "Although you are all inseparable from me, there is always a first come first served order. Mr. N is the first person I have known, so he should be the first to be affected."
"But others don't have to worry. I will arrange for the monarchs of various forces to be the guests of honor to help you hold the scene."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, still smiling, and said, "Please rest assured, all five of you have made great contributions. Even if other managers join us in the future, your positions will be unshakable."
You must know that the areas under the charge of managers such as N are all within Lei Xiao's territory, and Lei Xiao naturally has enough strength to allocate these places.
In addition, after taking control of the entire second-rate territory, there are other managers in charge of this area that Lei Xiao has not had the chance to contact yet, but what is certain is that these managers are ranked higher than the five people including N, so Lei Xiao also gave the five people a reassurance.
"Then it's all up to your Majesty!"
Our managers squeezed back into the screen and said in unison with the other managers: "We will come to pick up Your Majesty on time tomorrow night!"
"Then it's settled."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, then remembered something and smiled, "Oh, by the way, we are holding a celebration banquet tonight. I will send someone to deliver some food and spoils to you. You can meet with Qiduo later!"
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty!"
The five managers spoke in unison with excitement, and then Lei Xiao handed the magic stone to Qiduo who was standing beside him.
After finishing the conversation with the managers, just as Lei Xiao had said just now, since celebration banquets were being held in various places today and the main venue was this Ice Stone City, Lei Xiao also went to the venue and toasted with all the soldiers.
It was not until very late that Lei Xiao returned to his residence in Lion Castle.
"Ariel is still in the process of advancing. Everything is going very smoothly. I hope she can advance successfully soon."
Lei Xiao lay on the soft bed and soon fell asleep.
……
When he opened his eyes the next morning, Lei Xiao first refined the magic potion, which enabled him to successfully reach the sixth level and five stars in strength. Then, as usual, he returned to the territory to carry out daily affairs.
During this period of time, with the completion of the inner city of the territory, the construction of the outer city has also been proceeding in an orderly manner.
So far, the territory has reached an extremely large and magnificent level, far exceeding the scale of ordinary cities, and is even comparable to a giant city of the capital size.
As for the ordinary residents in the territory, they have also begun to move in one after another. Most of them are carefully selected top talents in various fields and the families of their subordinates.
Among them were not only the families of local subordinates, but also those summoned subordinates.
After Lei Xiao implemented a series of territory systems, many subordinates of the territory have met their ideal partners during their vacations, and some have even entered the marriage hall.
"In addition, the research and development of Lord Technology is also going very smoothly. Many projects have made great progress one after another. I believe they will be put into use soon."
"As for the colorful ingots needed to upgrade the lord's mansion, most of them have been collected. I believe that the mansion will be able to be upgraded soon."
Lei Xiao was thinking this as he returned to the command hall of Bingshi City.
“Speaking of which, today’s banquet is indeed a good opportunity, but there must be some powerful demigods among the first-rate powers attending the banquet, and I am at most a half-step seventh-rank powerhouse. There is obviously a disparity in strength.”
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but frowned slightly.
At this moment, a tall woman in a white robe came hurriedly from outside the door. It was Shirley.
"Your Majesty, the triple magic restriction deep in the ruins of the Light Elves has finally been unlocked!"
Shirley's fair face was full of excitement, and she saluted Lei Xiao by touching her chest.
Due to her reappearance through the Lion King Palace, Shirley, who is also the chosen child of God, can only move around in the human territory and was unable to participate in the previous fierce battle. Therefore, Lei Xiao assigned her a task, which was to monitor the cracking of the triple magic ban at all times.
"oh?"
Lei Xiao's eyes lit up and he stood up from his seat.
Ever since I first went to the ruins of the light elves, I have been wondering what is hidden in the depths sealed by numerous barriers. After such a long time, I finally have the opportunity to take a glimpse of the clues!
"It just so happens that we have nothing to do during the day, so let's go explore without further delay."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and began to call on a group of strong men to gather.
While waiting, Lei Xiao seemed to remember something, and he turned his palm up, and an exquisitely carved crystal ring emerged and was handed to Shirley's slender hand.
I saw that the crystal clear surface of the ring was engraved with dense magic runes, faintly emitting an unfathomable aura.
"Your Majesty, this is...?!"
Feeling the coolness brought by the crystal ring, Shirley didn't react for a moment.
"This is a high-quality container that can carry the strength of a half-step seventh level."
Lei Xiao smiled slightly and responded: "I know that your strength is far beyond the current level, but the Lion King Palace has its limits after all. It can neither let you go further nor bring out your full strength. With this item, you can break through these constraints."
Lei Xiao found this brand new container on the Broken Wing King. He thought it was something he could use to save his life. However, before he had a chance to use it, it was torn into pieces by a group of powerful men from second-rate forces who rushed over.
"Thank you very much for your gift, Your Majesty!"
Hearing this, Shirley's fair face was immediately filled with joy, and she quickly knelt down to express her gratitude.
The preciousness of this kind of container is self-evident. It is undoubtedly a great gift for Lei Xiao to give it to her!
You know, the crystal ball she had before was also a container, but because it was severely damaged, it could only carry the origin of life but could not reflect it, which was why she was trapped deep in the temple at that time.
Having this new high-quality container is enough to free her from being bound by anything and allow her to follow Lei Xiao to fight anywhere!
"That's not right. You helped me to unlock the triple magic restriction deep in the ruins. I should be thanking you instead."
Lei Xiao bent down and helped the other person up, smiling slightly.
Not long after, with the arrival of his powerful men, Lei Xiao took a deep breath and waved his hand, saying, "Then, it's time for us to set out and uncover the secrets deep within the ruins." (End of this chapter)
