Lord of the People: My Talent is 100 Million Points Strong

Chapter 633 Under the Waterfall

Holding on to the smooth and shiny stone handrails, he walked down the spiral staircase of the mansion. It didn't take long for Lei Xiao to return to the castle hall on the first floor.

Looking at the old housekeeper who was wiping the throne, Lei Xiao seemed to have remembered something and waved to greet him.

"Ward, how did you do with the matter I gave you yesterday?"

Lei Xiao nodded to the old butler who had gray hair but was combed meticulously and asked.

"Back to Lord, the 800 third-level long swords you left in the warehouse yesterday have been distributed to the half-elf squadron, 2 heavy shield shooter squadrons and 5 longbow squadrons."

Ward, who was wearing a black tuxedo, bowed slightly to Lei Xiao and responded respectfully: "As for what you ordered, to let the subordinates in the territory who have not reached the second level of nine stars take the Qi Condensation Pill yesterday. A total of 1,364 pills were consumed, leaving 1,136 pills remaining.”

I only heard Ward say with all his treasures: "Currently, there are 1,224 people left in the territory who have not yet reached the second-level nine-star subordinates. Among them, except for the peasant squadron, all the other elite squadron soldiers only need to refine the Qi Condensation Pill once. , we will be able to reach the peak level of the second-order nine-star level for all members.”

After the old housekeeper finished speaking, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, his old face full of reverence.

To be able to distribute such a large and precious Qi Condensation Pill to every soldier as if it were an ordinary ration, and to have such a terrifying wealth of hundreds of millions, makes people have the urge to crawl at the feet of the lord.

"very good."

Lei Xiao listened to Ward's introduction while checking the slave overview interface.

Just as Ward said, so far, the 16 elite squadrons in the territory, including the half-elf squadron and the werewolf warrior squadron that he first focused on training, have all reached the second-order nine-star level.

The remaining squadrons of heavy guards, 2 squadrons of heavy shield shooters, 2 squadrons of magicians, 3 squadrons of gunmen, and 5 squadrons of long archers are all one step away from reaching the second level nine-star level. .

As for the Peasant Squadron, the first four captains, including Gang Song, have reached the second-level seven-star level, while the rest are still hovering in the second-level three-star level.

"That is to say, as long as a sufficient amount of Qi Condensing Pills are supplied today, in addition to the peasant squadron, will the 15 elite squadrons in the territory be able to reach the second-level peak level of all members? Not bad, not bad!"

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao casually handed the remaining 88 Qi Condensing Pills to Ward and told him to continue distributing them later.

"As you command, Lord."

After receiving Lei Xiao's order, the old housekeeper put one hand on his chest and made a standard bow.

"Thanks for your hard work."

After Lei Xiao finished speaking, he walked out of the lord's mansion.

Bathed in the bright morning light, Lei Xiao took a deep breath of the fresh air mixed with the smell of fragrant grass, while continuing to think secretly in his heart.

"From a time point of view, by tonight, the half-elf squadron will be able to reach the third level of all members. My first third-level strong squadron will finally be born!"

In addition to being overjoyed, Lei Xiao walked vigorously and fell into deep thought.

"By the way, I currently have more than 1,500 Qi Condensing Pills left, so I'll take 1,500 whole pills and send them to the Red Stone in the Kingdom of Thorns."

"In this way, Hongshi can at least reorganize 5 elite second-level guard squadrons, and there will also be a full fourth-level equipment! You know, 5 second-level elite squadrons are enough to compete with 5 fourth-level strong men. !”

Lei Xiao thought this as he climbed onto the wall of the territory.

After some inspection, Lei Xiao noticed.

As he saw last night, after the canteen, all the trenches outside the territory have been dug.

At a glance, a deep trench that is five meters deep and ten meters wide completely isolates the entire territory from the forest, which is enough to block or slow down the enemy's attack, raising the overall defense of the territory to a higher level.

The excavated soil has also been transported to distant areas for smoothing and compacting, leaving no opportunity for the opponent to take advantage of.

"Very good, perfect!"

Nodding with satisfaction, Lei Xiao left the city wall and returned to the territory under the respectful greetings of the soldiers patrolling and standing guard around him.

Just passing by the area where the three miracle buildings are located, Lina, who looked excited, appeared not far away, accompanied by Chao Yan and Bai Wei.

Seeing Lei Xiao's figure, the three of them immediately came forward.

"Lord, the territory is really majestic. Regarding castles and miraculous buildings, I have only heard of them in my teacher's thrilling adventure stories. And our territory is exactly the same as what I imagined!"

Under the bright morning light, Lina's wheat-colored cheeks were already covered with novelty and excitement. She said excitedly: "Compared with the wooden houses and caves in the villages under my subordinates, it is like the sky and the earth!"

"Our territory is still in the development stage and is far from majestic."

Lei Xiao casually touched the frizzy hair next to the green leaves on the other side's head, and then said with a faint smile: "And we can witness the rise and growth of the territory and participate in it. This is the most exciting thing."

"Witness the rise and growth of the territory and participate in it?"

Hearing the sound, Lina's little face, which was flushed with excitement, showed a touch of expectation again, and even the green leaves above her head seemed to move.

"Is this guy doing photosynthesis?"

Noticing this quite interesting scene, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly.

Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao was seen lightly sniffing the aroma of butter and sausage that had spread throughout the territory, and then said: "Okay, let's go have breakfast first."

After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao, surrounded by three people, walked towards the source of the aroma of rice, the large canteen area in the southeast corner of the territory.

Entering the large cafeteria, which was magnificently reflected by light crystals, Lei Xiao had just sat down at the long table that was already filled with delicacies, and the reminder to read sounded again.

After the call was connected, Lei Xiao learned that Lin had rushed over from Kongqing Town.

"Very good, Lin, come over and have breakfast with us first."

After he stopped talking, Lei Xiao picked up the knife and fork neatly placed on the white napkin and started to eat happily.

While eating breakfast, Lei Xiao asked Lin, Bai Zhi and Aosen about the training situation of the half-elf wolf cavalry in the past few days, and then learned about it.

Although there is a big difference between infantry shooting and mounted shooting, the half-elf, who has perfectly inherited the elven archer talent, adapts extremely quickly.

Coupled with their agility and excellent balance, they also mastered riding quickly, making everything go very smoothly.

After the meal was finished, Lei Xiao followed his usual practice and immediately gathered all the main subordinates and commanders to start making arrangements for the day.

Among them, Randall and Benson, not to mention, went to the mountain fortress as quickly as possible, reunited with the other members of the Dragon Teeth Mercenary Group, and secretly assembled the other forces of the Dragon Teeth Mercenary Group.

The other returned to Luolong City to prepare for the war that might come at any time, and gave 1,500 Qi Condensing Pills to the red stone of the Kingdom of Thorns.

As for the job of delivering potion materials to the Gelin City Alchemist Guild, it fell on Hong Ye.

As a fifth-level dragon master with both magic and martial arts skills, Hongye's speed is still the best in the entire territory, even in human form.

After the three of them took their orders and left, Lei Xiao began to arrange the work in the territory.

"There is only one main task in the territory today, and that is to introduce all the streams in and around the territory into the trenches to complete the last step of the moat and form a perfect water circulation system."

In the spacious and bright hall of the mansion, Lei Xiao, who was sitting on the throne, looked at the subordinates standing respectfully below him and said, "This work should be handled by squadron leader Finley, who is a third-level water flow magician. ."

After a pause, Lei Xiao added: "As for the auxiliary work, leave it to the logistics commander Ward. In the logistics department, there are also two third-level water magicians, Chef Shuangxu and maid Yingshi. We must fully assist Finley in his diversion work."

"I obey! Lord, please rest assured!"

After hearing Lei Xiao's instructions, Finley, who was wearing a robe, and Ward, who was wearing a black tuxedo, took a step forward at the same time, caressing their chests and taking orders.

"As for the other elite squadrons, let's conduct combat training in the territory, especially the half-elf squadron and the werewolf warrior squadron. You must work closely together to develop combat capabilities as soon as possible under Lin's guidance."

"Yes! Lord Lord!" Hearing this, all the commanders also bowed and accepted the order, saying,

"Finally, regarding Xue Ya and Fa Xia, since all the materials for [Star Pattern Magic Pill] and [Double Moon Condensation Pill] have been collected, starting from today, you can refine these two third-level magic pills. The medicine is gone.”

Nodding to the two noble alchemists, Lei Xiao smiled faintly and said: "You guys can directly connect with Lin in a moment. I just gave them the newly obtained rare alchemy materials, as well as the previous Star Pattern Fruit and other materials. She kept it."

"Please rest assured, Lord, my subordinates will do their best!"

I saw a look of joy and eagerness appearing on the fair faces of Xue Ya and Faxia, and they said in unison.

"As for Zhuqi and other main subordinates, follow me to the upper reaches of the Shadow River later. We should also study building embankments to store water so that this hidden army is ready."

After that, Lei Xiao stood up from the throne, waved his hands and said, "Okay, everyone, please perform your duties. Under the shadow of war that may come at any time, there is not much time left for us."

"As you command! Lord Lord!"

All the subordinates looked solemn, and after stroking their chests and saluting, they quickly went to work.

Next, Lei Xiao joined the other main forces and galloped towards the Baibu Mountains in the upper reaches of the Demonic Shadow River.

Because at the beginning, the knotweed had already explored the route up the mountain once.

So, it didn't take long.

The tired Lei Xiao and his party had already appeared not far from a very spectacular waterfall.

Hua Hua Hua...

For a time, the deafening sound of the water and the crashing of the waves could be heard, just like the roar of thunder, which made people feel shocked.

Amidst the mist, Lei Xiao stepped on a giant pebble, feeling the cool water splashing on his face from time to time, and looked up.

Two suns, one big and one small, were in the sky. Under the pure sky like azure sapphire, the first thing that caught Lei Xiao's eyes was a rainbow spanning the mountains.

Further down is the waterfall itself.

Just like the description of the knotweed, this waterfall pouring down from the top of the mountain is only less than twenty meters wide, but its height is at least a hundred meters.

Among the jagged rocks, you can see the rapid water rushing down the steep rock wall.

Just like an army of knights sprinting down the hillside, they landed with huge energy, and finally stirred up huge waves of water in the river at the bottom of the waterfall.

After being shocked, Lei Xiao continued to observe while pacing on the edge of the waterfall.

After the waterfall falls, a huge lake is formed.

According to Ye Cang and Ariel who went to investigate, the waterfall in particular was almost bottomless.

As for Chao Yan, even water slimes were afraid of her. She was a complete landlubber, so Lei Xiao didn't let her fly to investigate.

Having said that, at the end of the lake is a wide channel that is widened by a narrow channel.

The overflowing river water has been flowing down the slightly winding river valley, and then gathered in the Shadow River downstream.

"Lord, this shallow lake is surrounded by towering mountain walls. If we can build embankments in the river at the end of the lake to control the flow of water in the valley, we can form a huge reservoir here!"

I saw Ariel blinking her starry eyes, coming up and saying: "In this way, as long as the enemy attempts to attack the territory through the Shadow River, as long as we open the gate and release the water, we will definitely cause huge casualties to the enemy!"

"That's true! We are currently outnumbered, and our troops near the territory are extremely weak. In addition, the Shadow River in the Shadow Forest is quite far away from the territory and Kongqing Town. It will not be affected.”

Orange Bai on the side also said with an excited look on his face: "From this, just like what the lord said, this is indeed equivalent to the emergence of a murderous army out of thin air!"

"That's right, the only place you need to pay attention to is the Red Arrow Town at the farthest downstream, near the river bank."

After listening to what the two of them said, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said, "I have told Donna to secretly build a shelter in the mountains around Red Arrow Town. As soon as she receives the order, she will immediately go to the designated place to take refuge, where the terrain is higher. There won’t be any danger.”

"These poor residents of Red Arrow Town have already experienced hardship once. If conditions permit, they must not be allowed to be affected unnecessarily again."

Having said this, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, then turned to look at the female commander on the other side who was a rock and soil magician, and asked: "Zhuqi, do you think it is feasible to build a dam in the narrow part of the river?"

"Back to my lord, my subordinates think this plan is perfect."

Zhuqi, who bowed slightly to Lei Xiao and had a few freckles on her fair cheeks, responded respectfully: "Although my subordinate's rock and soil magic cannot continue forever, there is still no problem in assisting in the construction of the dam!"

"The task of building the embankment will be left to you. I will ask Ned from Magnet Town and Xuan Yue from Mailan Town, who are both third-level rock and soil magicians, to assist you."

Nodding towards Zhuqi, Lei Xiao continued: "Although this position is difficult for ordinary soldiers to reach, it is easy for the Snow Wolf tribe who are good at climbing. The main force of embankment construction is left to them. I will arrange for Shi Feng, the leader of the werewolf clan, to fully cooperate with you."

After a pause, Lei Xiao added: "The war is imminent, and this matter must be completed in the shortest possible time."

"I obey, Lord Lord! My subordinates will complete the mission as soon as possible!"

After receiving Lei Xiao's order, Zhu Qi's face was full of seriousness and she said firmly.

Just when the two of them were talking about this.

On the other side, there was a series of sudden strange sounds.
