"Your Excellency, your Excellency, I just used my petty heart to penetrate the belly of a gentleman. Please, Your Excellency, please don't be surprised."

After being surprised, the Rose Marquis gathered his strength and first smiled awkwardly at Lei Xiao to express his apology.

Immediately afterwards, a hint of awe could not help but appear on his square face, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't expect that those guys who were relying on their own strength would have already been ambush for murder. They are so hateful!"

"I'm afraid the person who really wants to get rid of you is the master behind them."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao changed the subject and said: "Okay, the first priority is to find out the cause of the matter. Since Her Highness the Princess and I are both here, then I might as well lend a helping hand to you."

"That's right, this place is under the rule of my Lengyan royal family. As the fifth princess, I will naturally not sit idly by and ignore it."

Nodding slightly, Ariel also took a step forward, her eyebrows slightly furrowed and she agreed.

"Your Majesty, thank you, Your Highness, Princess! Thank you, Your Excellency, guest!"

Upon hearing this, the Rose Marquis looked happy, bowed his huge body again, and bowed sincerely to Lei Xiao and the two people in front of him.

At this time, Marquis Rose clearly understood in his heart.

Although I don’t know what those envoys did to this castle, your Excellency, Keqing, is surrounded by a fifth-level powerhouse at the level of a country. This is undoubtedly the greatest guarantee for resolving the crisis!

At this moment, Rose Marquis couldn't help but have thousands of thoughts in his heart.

Compared with the other three waves of princes’ envoys from the royal capital not long ago.

Although Her Royal Highness the Princess and Your Excellency the Guest Minister in front of them also have the purpose of winning over themselves, their sincerity and attitude are completely different from the previous arrogant and unreasonable envoys.

The most important thing is that at this stage, it has been confirmed.

The other envoys aimed at their own lives, but Her Royal Highness the Princess and His Excellency the guest minister in front of them came to help in times of crisis. The gap between them was like a gulf, so naturally it is self-evident.

Thinking of this, while sighing in his heart, Rose Marquis first nodded to Lei Xiao and others, and then said: "Then it's all yours, let's find out the cause of the shock first!"

"That's what I mean, the information we have is this..."

With a slight nod, Lei Xiao described to Rose Marquis the dangerous smell he suddenly felt when he first arrived in front of the city, and the dangerous smell he felt again when he was shocked just now.

"I see, no wonder Your Excellency, Guest Minister, mentioned the matter of Warcraft just now."

After pondering thoughtfully for a moment, Rose Marquis slapped his thigh and said, "So, the shock just now was probably caused by that mysterious monster?"

"It's almost confirmed. As long as we can find the traces of the monster, everything will be solved."

Nodding to Marquis Rose, Lei Xiao turned to the woman from the Snow Wolf tribe and said, "Bai Wei, can you trace the scent of that monster now?"

"Sir, when the trembling ended, the strange smell of the monster disappeared again."

Bowing to Lei Xiao, Bai Wei responded: "Coupled with the strong fragrance of flowers and wine that permeates the place, it is almost difficult to trace."

When Dai Mei frowned and said this, Bai Wei thought for a moment and then added: "However, according to the identification of my subordinates, the smell should come from the end of this corridor!"

"The end of the corridor?!"

Hearing this, the Rose Marquis was stunned, and suddenly showed a look of enlightenment and said: "That location is the entrance to the wine cellar of the City Lord's Mansion. Every previous wave of envoys has visited it. It seems that something strange is very likely to happen.

There!"

"Without further delay, let's go check it out."

Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao then snapped his fingers and said.

"Everyone, please follow this way!"

On the other side, the Rose Marquis pinned the roses back into his lapels, and then took enchanting steps.

Next, under the guidance of Marquis Rose, the group quickly left the luxurious living room.

I just walked out of the door of the living room and came to the spacious castle corridor.

Several commanders of the Blue Cold Castle Guards, either wearing armor or robes, immediately surrounded the Marquis of Rose.

These commanders first gave a symbolic salute to Ariel, the Princess of Cold Flames, and then began to make reports.

After gathering information from several commanders, Lei Xiao learned.

This sudden shock seemed to only affect the center of Blue Cold Castle, the area where the City Lord's Mansion is located.

This point is undoubtedly confirmed from the side, and the strange thing indeed appears in the wine cellar underground of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Lord City Lord, what should we do now?"

After the report was completed, one of the middle-aged magician commanders in a blue robe stepped forward, bowed and asked the Rose Marquis.

"According to intelligence, there seem to be traces of unknown monsters appearing in the underground wine cellar. Therefore, as a precaution, everyone in the castle must be evacuated as quickly as possible."

Nodding to the middle-aged magician commander, Rose Marquis said with a solemn expression.

"Unknown monster?! In the underground wine cellar?!"

In astonishment, several commanders of Blue Cold Fort first looked at each other, and then they all bowed and accepted the order: "Yes! Lord City Lord!"

"In addition, all the main roads of the City Lord's Mansion are completely blocked. No one is allowed to enter or exit at will without the order of the City Lord!"

After pondering for a moment, Marquis Rose added.

"Don't worry, Lord City Lord."

The middle-aged magician commander who headed the group once again put one hand on his chest and took the order.

Immediately afterwards, the middle-aged commander asked respectfully: "My lord, the current situation is still unclear. How about you and your Highness the Princess evacuate first, and let your subordinates and others lead the elite soldiers to thoroughly investigate the underground wine cellar?"

However, as soon as the middle-aged commander finished speaking, the ground where everyone was standing began to tremble without warning.

Lei Xiao could clearly feel the tremors of the earth.

This time the unexplained vibration was obviously much stronger than before.

So much so that even the precious paintings hanging on the walls of the corridor began to sway violently back and forth, making a "tap-tat-tat" sound.

"There is no time. The several small craft breweries in this city lord's palace and the huge collection of underground wine cellars are the lifelong efforts of the successive city lords of Blue Cold Castle. At the same time, they are also the foundation of my Blue Cold Castle brewing status.

, this city lord will naturally protect it personally."

After a while, when everything became quiet again, Marquis Rose waved his hand slightly and said seriously: "In short, you don't need to worry about other things. Just follow the orders of this city lord."

"...I obey! Please be careful, Lord City Lord and Princess!"

Hearing the sound, several commanders of Blue Cold Fort, whose strength was at the third level, gritted their teeth and then turned into phantoms one after another and disappeared in front of everyone.

Hearing this, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

With everything currently unknown, this place can no longer be called safe.

It is conceivable that a magical beast that can make the entire city lord's palace tremble is naturally not a thing in the pool.

However, in his seven-person team, there are two powerful fifth-level warriors, one of whom is the transformation of a dragon at the overlord level on the mainland.

Therefore, in this extremely limited space, it is naturally enough to deal with any crisis.

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty the Princess, do you really want to help me?"

After several commanders left, Rose Marquis showed hesitation again on his face and asked.

"Your Excellency, City Lord, please lead the way. Since Her Highness the Princess and I have promised you, we will certainly keep our word."

Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao smiled lightly.

Needless to say, this sudden crisis is undoubtedly the best opportunity for me to conquer this enchanting man. How can I miss it so easily?

"Thank you for your kindness, please follow me this way!"

Hearing this, Rose Marquis's face was full of uncontrollable gratitude, and he once again walked at the front of the team.

In this way, under the guidance of Marquis Rose, the group moved forward along the spacious and gorgeously decorated castle corridor.

Finally, we came to a very heavily guarded metal gate.

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty the Princess, this is the underground wine cellar of the City Lord's Mansion."

The Rose Marquis ordered the heavily armored guard guarding the door to open the door and introduced: "Because the magic ban will affect the quality of the wine, there are physical protection measures here."

After a pause, the Rose Marquis smiled and added: "Of course, the locks on these doors are carefully made by Leng Yan's top locksmiths. Unless they are forcibly destroyed, they cannot be opened at all, which makes up for the lack of

The magic ban is no longer enough."

"I see, then let's go in and find out."

Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao, surrounded by his subordinates, took his own steps again.

After walking into the gate, a passage that goes all the way down appeared in front of Lei Xiao.

It should be for the convenience of storing drinks back and forth. This passage is not designed as a ladder structure, but a wide and not steep slope, winding all the way down, and it looks quite large.

Next, after Rose Marquis led the way, and after opening two more iron gates and metal doors halfway, Lei Xiao walked straight to the end of the passage and found out.

At this moment, what appeared in front of him was an extremely huge underground space, covering thousands of square meters.

I saw a large number of oak wine barrels neatly arranged in the softly lit underground space. At a glance, they were so densely packed that they could hardly be seen to the end. It was extremely spectacular.

At the same time, the aroma of sweet and sour fruity wine mixed with the taste of oak hits your nostrils. Although it is rich, it is not pungent, making people feel like walking into the freshness of nature.

feeling.

"Your Excellency, this is the underground wine cellar, the most common wine storage area. As for the other fine wine storage areas, there are six more, all of which are almost the same size as here. Moreover, the furnishings in some areas are extremely complex, just like
