PFC Chapter 1645: Surprise and True Colors Revealed
Chapter 1645: Surprise and True Colors Revealed
Beside the fountain in the small square, just as the captain of the market guard turned around, a blue magical light suddenly shone in front of Lei Xiao, and chains of ice with cold air shot out with loud sonic booms, instantly binding the unsuspecting captain of the market guard and other market guards on the spot.
A small ice-colored magic scroll appeared in Lei Xiao's palm, which was the source of this seventh-level ice binding spell.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?!"
Zhen on the side couldn't help but be stunned and looked over with surprise, while Rorik and other light elves and independent warriors all had the same look and opened their eyes wide.
They obviously did not expect that this young human emperor would actually attack the market guards directly, which was undoubtedly equivalent to declaring war on the Mirage Market!
You know, even the strong men from first-rate forces like Zhen and Rorik would never, and even dare not, do this!
"Everyone, be prepared for a fight. They are not real market guards."
Lei Xiao looked at the other party with caution while commanding his men to surround the other party.
Even though the only one on the other side who was at the demigod level was the captain of the market guard, and the other ordinary guards were all at half-step to the seventh level, Lei Xiao still did not let his guard down.
Hearing the sound, Fei'er, Anna, as well as the leaders and strong men of the second-rate forces such as Hollis and Lila flew out one after another and immediately surrounded the opponent who was caught off guard in the center.
Among them, Hollis, Lila and other new subordinates who had been subdued, as well as Phil and Anna, did not hesitate at all, and the same was true for the leaders and strong men of the second-rate forces who had not yet been subdued.
Ever since the defeat of the Broken Wing King and Lei Xiao's comprehensive upgrade, these strong men have long been his direct subordinates. Even if they still have doubts in their hearts, they still faithfully carry out Lei Xiao's orders.
After being stunned for a moment, most of those independent strong men chose to stand on Lei Xiao's side and showed their weapons to the market guards.
They have long heard of the reputation of His Majesty the Human Race, and they all clearly understand that the most important reason why His Majesty the Human Race has been able to stand at the top of the second-rate forces from that corner of the human race's territory is his wisdom.
Thinking in this way, His Majesty the Human Race would never make any reckless moves. Although they did not know the reason, they knew that this was a good opportunity to show themselves to His Majesty the Human Race!
"Aren't they the real Market Guards?"
A hint of suspicion emerged on Rorik's handsome face, and he and the other light elves did not take action immediately.
They had already thought of what those independent warriors were thinking. With the intelligence of the human emperor, he would never be so reckless as to attack the market guards without any basis.
But they represent their own forces. Even if they realize that something is fishy, they will not act rashly. Otherwise, if trouble arises due to misunderstanding, and the relationship between their own forces and the Shadow Market is affected, the consequences will be something they cannot bear.
"Your Majesty, are you sure?"
Even Zhen on the other side was a little hesitant for a moment and did not show his weapon.
Before Lei Xiao could respond, the captain of the market guard spoke up and asked in surprise, "Sir, what do you mean?"
It was obvious from his tone that he was full of confusion and innocence, as if he had no idea why Lei Xiao suddenly attacked him.
After that, his tone was filled with indignation, and he continued, "Mr. VIP, by doing this you are making an enemy of the entire Miying Market!"
Hearing this, Rorik and Zhen both looked at Lei Xiao at the same time, with more confusion in their eyes. Although they admired the courage of this young human emperor, they wanted to know more about the basis for the latter's sudden action.
"Captain, since you are able to serve as guards in this market directly under the Brotherhood of the Market and guide us, you must have performed your duties here for many years, right?"
Lei Xiao ignored the other party's threat and asked calmly.
"Of course. Only the most elite and meritorious market guards will be selected here. Your Excellency should know the importance of this! The Market Brotherhood will never sit idly by!"
Seeing that Lei Xiao still didn't make any move, the captain of the market guard became a little impatient and continued in a commanding tone: "Why don't you let us go?"
"If that's the case, then why don't you recognize this thing?"
Lei Xiao turned his palm up and revealed the sparkling gem again.
"I just said it, we are just guards, not appraisers..."
The tone of the market guard captain became more and more violent, but before he could finish his words, Lei Xiao's voice rang out again.
"This is not an ordinary gem, but a magic stone used for communication between Shadow Markets."
Lei Xiao stared at the other party's fully enclosed helmet and continued calmly: "As far as I know, even the ordinary fifth-level guards at the bottom of the ranking can use this thing. It is also one of the compulsory courses for market guards, not to mention you who are at the demigod level?"
Just as Lei Xiao said, through communicating with a group of our managers, Lei Xiao already knew everything about the communication magic stone, and he had more than one communication magic stone on him.
The reason why Lei Xiao took this thing out just now was to test whether the other party was a real market guard, and the answer was naturally self-evident.
"I just felt that this gem looked familiar. It is indeed the communication stone of the Shadow Market!"
After Lei Xiao's reminder, Zhen quickly reacted and blurted out, "I have personally seen the captain of the guard beside the manager use this thing to communicate with other markets. How could you know nothing about it?"
Just as Zhen was speaking, a leader among the powerful light elves recognized him and whispered something to Rorik and several other leaders, apparently confirming that Lei Xiao's words were correct.
It seems that what His Majesty the Human Race said was right, there is indeed something wrong with these guys!
They all realized this in their hearts, and combined with the various anomalies before, both the strong dark elves and the strong light elves became completely alert and began to slowly surround each other.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
Seeing that he could no longer pretend, the captain of the market guard suddenly laughed wildly and said in a sinister voice: "The trap ahead is carefully prepared by us. We wanted to make your death more painful. In this case, let's just do it here."
As the other party finished speaking, he struggled with both hands, and the seventh-level ice chains that bound him broke all at once. (End of this chapter)
