Chapter 1619 Fortress and Thoughts
"Your Excellency the Fox Tribe Chief, please feel free to speak."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and looked into the other person's eyes that were full of urgency.
After this period of contact, Lei Xiao has learned that the tunnel fox chief who is on good terms with Lila is named Xia, and has contributed a lot since the very beginning.
"Your Majesty, our second-rate forces are in a state of disrepair and are in urgent need of a prestigious person to take charge of the overall situation. We invite Your Majesty to take the position of the new Lord of the Throne Corridor and guide us in the direction of progress!"
Xiaya did not hesitate and pleaded to Lei Xiao urgently.
"Your Excellency the Fox Tribe Chief is right. Your Majesty, please do not refuse and guide us in the direction of advancement!"
The monarchs and strong men of other second-rate forces all had the same expression and spoke in unison.
Among them, Lila, Hollis and others were of course not to be mentioned, even Prince Zhuiying nodded, obviously agreeing with this proposal.
"I'm sorry, everyone. I can't obey your order."
Facing the anxious eyes of the crowd, Lei Xiao shook his head slightly and responded: "Over the years, the Throne Corridor has left an indelible mark of darkness on you all. I have decided to destroy it completely. From today on, the Throne Corridor will no longer exist."
"Only by completely abandoning the past can we have a new beginning."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned at first, and then nodded heavily.
His Majesty the Human Race was right. Over the years, the Throne Corridor has been like a giant peak of death pressing down on everyone's head, causing them to live in the shadow of fear, oppression and plunder at all times.
If you want to move forward in big strides, you should really cut through this thorny road completely, so that the future journey will be smoother.
"We strongly agree with the decision of His Majesty the Human Race, but in the final analysis, the Lord of the Corridor is just a title. We don't care about it. What we care about is His Majesty the Human Race who can preside over the overall situation!"
Xiya saluted Lei Xiao and continued, "So, please ask His Majesty the Human Race to choose a new name for the faction. We are willing to become a member of it!"
"You are right. Wherever the human king is, that is where we are waiting for!"
The other monarchs and powerful men also echoed and spoke in unison again.
"In that case, I will certainly not let you down for your trust and expectations."
Lei Xiao hesitated for a moment, then said with a serious face: "From the beginning of leading the human race into the Outer Realm, I have always had only one goal, which is to let the human race and more Outer Realm forces go hand in hand to cope with the many challenges in the future, such as the great catastrophe, such as the more unpredictable plate wars."
"I believe that when everyone adds fuel, the flames rise high. Rather than being aloof and self-centered, it is better to embrace all forces and allow them to have room to display their own value. This is my original intention."
At this point, Lei Xiao described to everyone what he knew about the catastrophe and his speculations about the plate war. This was not only to lay the foundation for the new force, but also to let everyone understand the future direction.
After listening to Lei Xiao's description, all the monarchs were extremely excited and could not stop nodding in agreement. Even Prince Zhuiying nodded repeatedly, which was rare.
In their eyes, Lei Xiao's weight in their hearts has undoubtedly increased a lot, even to an indescribable supreme level.
The monarchs of these second-rate forces naturally have a lot of understanding about the great catastrophe that may come at any time.
Especially in the past hundred years, with the increasing instability of many magical veins, the "erosion" in various places has become more frequent. This is like a huge rock weighing on everyone's heart, which cannot be shaken off, but they are powerless to do anything about it.
After all, those first-rate forces all choose to keep themselves out of trouble and regard other forces as burdens and dispensable existences.
After the Broken Wing King surpassed all other forces, he became short-sighted and only cared about his own grabbing and suppression, making the situation of all other forces even more difficult.
And now, Lei Xiao’s first goal is to work hand in hand with everyone to fight against the destructive disaster with many uncertainties. How can this not make everyone excited?
“It seems to me that this vast land where we are is like a huge ‘fortress’.”
"From the moment I walked out of the room where the humans were, all I had to do was connect as many rooms as possible until the entire "fortress" was completely connected."
"Only then can we focus on strengthening the entire Fortress to meet future challenges, not only the Cataclysm, but other Fortresses as well."
Lei Xiao's voice resounded in everyone's ears, and then he said: "So, how about the name of the new force be Fortress Alliance?"
"Fortress Alliance? As expected of His Majesty, it is a great and impressive name!"
The young Frostfire Giant King could not help but nod his head and said excitedly: "My Frostfire Giant Kingdom is willing to join the Fortress Alliance!"
"The Stone Giant is willing to join!"
"Half-Titan is willing to join!"
"The wasteland fishmen are willing to join!"
"The Moon Shadow Deerman is willing to join!"
"The Tunnel Fox People are also willing to join!"
……
For a moment, all the monarchs rushed to agree, and even Prince Zhuiying nodded in the end.
"Please ask His Majesty to take up the position of Lord of the Fortress!"
Then, everyone said in unison without hesitation.
"Then I would rather obey your orders than be respectful."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, his eyes bright and sharp.
So far, from the human territory, to the third-rate forces in the outside world, and then to the current second-rate forces in the outside world, most of the entire plate has been controlled in his hands. Coupled with the rise of the Fortress Alliance, this is undoubtedly an extremely important step!
Next, Lei Xiao deployed everything from trade, technology exchange, to magic exchange, etc. according to the process that had already been established in the third-rate forces.
This will not only allow the various forces under his command to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, but also further deepen the ties between them.
The most critical issue is the supply of food.
Although natural disasters have occurred frequently in the territories of second-rate forces recently, the third-rate forces and the human race have massive reserves. Coupled with the planting technology of the human race, it is enough to allow the second-rate forces to recover in a short period of time.
In addition, Lei Xiao also made further planning and integration in terms of the army, resources, equipment, etc. Now that the alliance has been formed, it should naturally be unified in more aspects in order to exert greater power.
After all, what we are going to face next are only those unfathomable behemoths. Each of those first-rate forces at the top of all races has a strong foundation. The tip of the iceberg that Yaheng showed not long ago has already shocked everyone.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that only if he possessed strength comparable to these behemoths to the greatest extent possible would he be qualified to be on an equal footing with these behemoths.
The most important thing among these is naturally the comprehensive upgrade of all forces.
Over the past few days, he has completed the comprehensive upgrade of the Broken Wing Kingdom and many of its minions' territories, which can be said to be a huge gain.
Among them, the Broken Wing Kingdom is particularly powerful, as it almost encompasses the entire second-rate forces and is extremely wealthy, as can be seen from this.
In terms of magic potions, the gains from the comprehensive upgrade are enough to allow the human race's million-strong army, which is currently all at level four, to have ten more level five legions, standing at the top of the second-rate forces in one fell swoop, and greatly make up for the losses of other forces under its command in this fierce battle. As for the level four legions, it is enough to have two hundred or more.
The most crucial thing is that it can give birth to at least a thousand new sixth-level warriors, and allow many elite sixth-level warriors to reach a higher star level, including Lei Xiao himself, who has currently reached the sixth-level four-star. The only pity is that he has not found a sixth-level magic potion that can enhance strength.
In terms of equipment, it is enough for all the fifth-level legions under his command to replace themselves with brand new fifth-level fine equipment. Among them, the most elite 10 fifth-level legions are even enough to replace all members with sixth-level equipment, which will become the main force among our main forces.
As for the huge number of fourth-level legions, it is enough for all members to replace them with fifth-level ordinary equipment, bringing the overall strength to a higher level.
In terms of the equipment of the strong, it goes without saying that all sixth-level strongmen are equipped with sixth-level fine equipment, and the half-step seventh-level strongmen are also equipped with seventh-level equipment. It’s just that Lei Xiao’s current reserves of seventh-level equipment are still extremely limited, so for the time being, the main force and subordinates are the main focus.
In terms of magic scrolls, Lei Xiao also gained a lot.
Although the entire second-rate force did not find the seventh-level scroll, the number of sixth-level scrolls was quite large. After a refreshing upgrade, Lei Xiao not only completely replenished the previous trump cards, but also greatly increased the number of trump cards. He even distributed a certain number of seventh-level scroll trump cards to many of his main strong men.
In addition, he also gained a lot in terms of magic cannons, rare treasures and magic crystals, which was enough to make Lei Xiao's foundation rise to a new height.
It is worth mentioning that Jasmine also obtained a seventh-level giant magic cannon of the Winged People, which is also the only seventh-level item obtained.
After some consideration, Lei Xiao finally chose quantitative change.
After all, the energy required to activate this magic cannon is already extremely huge. If it is directly upgraded to the eighth level, it will be the realm of God. With our current strength, it is obviously impossible to activate it, and it can only be a decoration.
Therefore, no matter how you think about it, it is more appropriate to use it now rather than just leaving it there as a decoration. This has also become Lei Xiao's strongest means of attack at present.
In the second half of the meeting, Lei Xiao also summarized the fierce battle that had taken place not long ago and learned some new information.
First, the first batch of dark elf hunters were hired by the young Frostfire Giant King, but because the hiring price was too high, they had to give up after their failure.
This brings up a key problem: the employer of the second group of dark elf hunters, including Leader Broken Ear, was not the former, and his identity remains unknown until now.
Lei Xiao once carefully questioned the leaders of all clans, and all of them gave a negative answer.
"After conquering the Broken Wing King's capital, Chief Broken Ear and other dark elf hunters said goodbye to me and left here. The impressive scale and lineup of the second dark elf hunters is indeed not something that ordinary second-rate forces can afford, especially under the premise of being suppressed and seized by the Broken Wing King."
"So, who is the employer of Chief Broken Ear and his men? It can't be the Broken Wing King himself, right?"
Lei Xiao thought for a long time, but in the end he couldn't figure out the identity of this mysterious employer.
Theoretically speaking, this mysterious employer is likely to come from some first-rate force.
But the only person he has any contact with right now is Yaheng, and the other party has already shown up in person, so he obviously won't waste his time. So who is this mysterious employer?
Second, after some investigation, it was found that the series of floating magic circles on the sky island where the Throne Corridor headquarters was located had indeed been completely destroyed and could no longer take off. This was also expected.
At the end of the meeting, Lei Xiao also arranged new masters for the Broken Wing Clan and its minions. Since these forces had completely surrendered, they would naturally be used by him.
The meeting did not come to an end until late at night.
After everyone left one after another, Lei Xiao looked at the empty command hall and frowned slightly.
Even though he had already taken control of the entire second-rate force, plus the original third-rate forces and the human territory, he still had no confidence in competing with those first-rate forces.
After all, the foundation of second-rate forces is relatively limited. They only have a small number of sixth-level equipment and magic scrolls, and they also do not master forging, magic craftsmanship and alchemy technology above the sixth level.
This means that it is still extremely difficult to obtain a brand new, unupgraded sixth-level item.
Even after he upgraded himself and obtained a lot of sixth-tier equipment blueprints and potion formulas, which were enough to break through the many barriers set up by those first-rate forces, forging and alchemy all required a lot of time.
In addition, the high-level blacksmiths and alchemists under his command were not very skilled, so it was obviously difficult to achieve sufficient results in a short period of time.
But the problem remains the same. Faced with the catastrophe that may come at any time and the competition among the lords of each sector, the time left for oneself is obviously extremely limited.
In other words, he must find a way to obtain a large number of unupgraded sixth-level items as soon as possible, especially sixth-level strength-enhancing potions. With these things, he can cultivate demigods under his command.
After all, up to now, he didn't have a demigod under his command. Among those first-rate forces, demigods were considered to be truly powerful. Although the exact number was unknown, he had learned from Jasmine that there were dozens of demigods in the forest elves she was in alone.
This is just an estimate, because even she finds it difficult to estimate the true depth of her hometown.
"In short, the gap between us and those first-rate forces is still huge. If we want to make rapid progress in a short period of time and reach the level of competing with them, this problem is simply unsolvable."
Lei Xiao's brows furrowed even more, and he carefully considered possible solutions in his mind.
At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps interrupted his thoughts. (End of this chapter)
