Astonished, Ariel quickly came to Lei Xiao's side and whispered in a low voice: "Lord, if nothing else happens, my subordinates should know the origin of this half-elf illusionist!"

"Oh? Tell me."

Lei Xiao nodded to indicate to Jiang Li and other powerful men to keep an eye on each other for the time being, while a hint of curiosity emerged and he continued to listen.

"Lord, do you still remember the two ace combat forces under the command of His Majesty the King of Heroes? One of them is the world-shaking Earth Dragon Knights, the commander is Perrin, and the other is the half-elf archer who is always accurate.

Regiment, the commander forgets his worries."

Ariel's crisp voice continued to echo in Lei Xiao's ears: "And the appearance of this young half-elf is exactly the same as Wangyou in the palace portrait!"

"So, this guy is probably a member of Wangyou's tribe?"

Lei Xiao was startled at first, but then he reacted.

Regarding the information about Wangyou, the legendary half-elf, Lei Xiao, who often talks to Ariel at night, is obviously not unfamiliar with it.

Back then, Wangyou was undoubtedly indispensable for Wang Xi's success in establishing the Cold Flame Kingdom. He used the forest bow and wind arrows in his hands to help Wang Xi overcome many obstacles and powerful enemies.

But what is sad is that not long after Wang Xi's death, Wangyou died unexpectedly in a war, and Wang Xi and Wang Xi almost left the land they once protected.

After Wangyou, the person who inherited the position of the leader of the half-elf tribe was the half-elf Archer God Chiduo, one of the Nine Dragon-Slaying Heroes. Those are all things for later.

But what is certain is that it was precisely because of Wangyou's unexpected death that the half-elf tribe, which was once one of the Leng Yan wealthy families, began to gradually decline until it was expelled from the Leng Yan Kingdom by several generations of jealous Leng Yan monarchs.

.

Moreover, after being expelled from the Cold Flame Kingdom, the frustrated half-elf tribe completely lost news, and no one knows their whereabouts to this day.

Due to the disappearance of the half-elf tribe, some Leng Yan monarchs who wanted to restore the status of the half-elf tribe in later generations had no way to do so.

"Yes, Lord, according to the "Royal Chronicle", although Wangyou has no heirs, he has other blood relatives. For example, Qiduo is Wangyou's niece, so this half-elf who looks like Wangyou must come from

To the Zhuyue Clan!"

Ariel's face was full of excitement, she nodded and said: "I didn't expect to find traces of the Zhuyue Clan here!"

"It is indeed a big unexpected gain."

After understanding the origin of the other party, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

The Zhuyue Clan is the name of that half-elf tribe.

The reason why Ariel was so excited is actually very simple.

Because Ariel, like those Cold Flame monarchs, wants to restore the status and honor of the Zhuyue clan in the Cold Flame Kingdom.

After all, the Zhuyue clan contributed a lot to the Lengyan Kingdom, but those generations of jealous Lengyan monarchs expelled the Zhuyue clan from the Lengyan Kingdom without justifiable reasons.

"The most important thing is that the Zhuyue clan is extremely powerful. If we can get the loyalty of the other party, it will undoubtedly further enhance our overall combat power!"

"But in the end, I'm afraid this is not an easy thing."

Lei Xiao froze his eyebrows and nodded thoughtfully.

It can be imagined that from the moment they were expelled from the Cold Flame Kingdom for no reason, the Zhuyue clan must have been extremely disappointed with this land.

After hundreds of years, the other party finally got out of this past, and if we want to bring it back, it will undoubtedly be equivalent to tearing the other party's wounds again, and the difficulty can be imagined.

"However, since I accidentally met this half-elf illusionist who came to my door, it is always a good start."

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao slowly walked up to the half-elf illusionist who was still confused, and said with a smile: "So, you are from the Zhuyue clan, right?"

"Your Majesty, how did you know?!"

The young female half-elf illusionist blinked her long eyelashes and said in disbelief: "Who are you? No one has ever been able to tell me my origins!"

"It doesn't matter who I am, but I am quite interested in you."

The smile on Lei Xiao's face became stronger and he said calmly: "Tell me why you appear here."

"I'm just a mercenary officially registered in the mercenary guild. I just use people's money to eliminate disasters for others!"

The female half-elf illusionist opened her starry eyes wide, and said with innocence written all over her fair cheeks: "I have no grievances against the Shanglu family. If I have any offense, it's just because of the golden dragon. Please don't execute me!"

"Lord, it seems that this guy regards us as Han Shui's accomplices."

Erza raised her eyebrows, stroked her chest and saluted: "My subordinate has taken off all her weapons, and indeed found a badge issued by the Mercenary Guild. This guy is still a Mithril level second only to the highest level.

Where are the mercenaries!"

After that, Erza respectfully handed over a shiny silver dog tag-shaped badge.

"Is he actually on the same level as Randall? He is already a mercenary at the quasi-legendary level."

Lei Xiao took the badge, waved it toward the sun, and then connected to Randall's message and began to confirm the other party's identity.

Each mercenary badge has a unique number on it, so it is undoubtedly the fastest choice to have Randall, who is familiar with all of this, confirm it.

"Lord, my subordinates have confirmed the identity of the other party!"

Randall's clean voice soon reached Lei Xiao's ears: "1000368, a mithril-level mercenary registered in the Kingdom of Grim, nicknamed Illusory Eye Ors, is good at using illusions. The last time

The place of appearance is Starport Castle in the Kingdom of Grim!"

"Understood."

Lei Xiao stopped talking, looked up and down again at the frightened white face of the half-elf illusionist, and said with a smile: "It turns out it's Ors, the Eye of Illusion. It's really an explosive name."

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty the Princess, this strong mercenary is indeed Ors, the Eye of Illusion. I met him by chance in the mercenary guild a few days ago."

The old man in blue robe, accompanied by Lai Sili and three other old men, walked over quickly.

When they got closer, they saw that the old man in blue robe was just about to salute Lei Xiao and Ariel, but he happened to see the true face of the half-elf illusionist. He couldn't help but said with surprise on his face: "Girl? I didn't expect Mr. Ors to be like this."

young!"

"After all, this guy is a real half-elf. You can't judge her age just by her appearance."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked the female half-elf illusionist: "Then Mr. Ors, the Eye of Illusion, please tell me your real name."

"Just call me Mia."

After hearing that Lei Xiao was not Han Shui's minion, the half-elf illusionist named Mia significantly relaxed his panic. He breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "It turns out that you are the famous princess Keqing! Keqing recently!

Your Excellency’s name is really astonishing!”

“I don’t take it seriously, I’m just trying my best.”

Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and his expression suddenly became serious: "Since you are a mercenary, then continue to perform your duties, but don't have any wrong thoughts, otherwise I will kill you on the spot."

"Please rest assured, my task completion rate is 100%, and I have never let my employer down!"

Looking at Lei Xiao's eyes with obvious murderous intent, Mia's white throat rolled, she swallowed, and nodded quickly.

"Return her belongings to her for now."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and nodded to signal Jiang Li and Erza to pay close attention to each other, while handing over the mercenary badge again.

Lei Xiao clearly understood that this girl would still be of great use in the future, so naturally he could not let her go easily.

However, the most urgent thing at this stage is to contact Laisili's grandfather and other opposition elders as soon as possible.

"As expected of Your Majesty the Guest, you can easily tame even the cold Eye of Illusion Ors."

While sighing with emotion, the old man in blue robe quickly knelt down on one knee and said sincerely: "Thank you to Her Royal Highness the Princess and Your Excellency Keqing for coming to the rescue and rescuing Laisili!"

The other three elders also made the same move, lowering their heads towards Lei Xiao and Ariel.

Having said that, the old bodies of the four merchant elders were trembling slightly due to excitement involuntarily.

They had lost their way in the darkness just now, and the arrival of Her Royal Highness the Princess and Your Excellency the Guest Minister was like giving timely help and allowed them to see the dawn of hope again!

"The four elders don't need to be polite."

Lei Xiao helped the elders up in turn, smiled and nodded.

After that, Lei Xiao learned about it through Lai Sili's introduction.

The old man in blue robe is Laisili's grandfather and the chief elder of the Shanglu family, Keen.

Needless to say, the other three old men are naturally the opposition elders who stand on the side of old Keane.

"Elder Keen, Laisili has already told you, right? Her Highness the Princess and I are here to pull Han Shui down from the throne of the family head."

After a brief exchange of greetings, Lei Xiao's face was full of solemnity and he said: "He has led the Shanglu family to stand on the opposite side of me and Her Royal Highness the Princess, and pointed his sharp blade at me and Her Royal Highness the Princess. I will never let him go.

"

"To be honest with you, Your Excellency, when Hanshui held a secret meeting, I and the other four people firmly disagreed with his actions. It's a pity that he turned a deaf ear."

Old Keen gently stroked his gray beard and shook his head helplessly.

"Your Excellency, Guest Minister, the main reason why the Shanglu clan has been able to develop to this day is that it relies wholeheartedly on the royal family. Although there were other family heads who were ready to take action, they never took a step beyond it."

"But Han Shui took this step without hesitation, leading the Shanglu family to join this power dispute, trying to use his own power to determine the ownership of the throne. How arrogant and arrogant this is."

"Such an approach may yield short-term benefits, but it will ultimately lead the flourishing Phytolacca family to decline."

When Old Keen said this, the other three elders also nodded, with expressions of indignation on their faces.

"Elder Keen is right. If Han Shui continues to have his own way, Her Royal Highness the Princess and I will have no choice but to destroy the entire Shangluc family, even if we die together."

Lei Xiao's voice became more and more serious, and he continued: "But through my understanding with Her Royal Highness, I have learned that there are ministers who are loyal to the royal family in the Shanglu family, so I chose to venture in alone to contact you in an attempt to make them
