Volume 2 The Land of Chaos Chapter 118 Thunder City

The moon is bright tonight, and I can clearly see this sleeping world.

Under the bright stars, this town built on the edge of a sea cliff looks very eerie.

This is the same feeling that everyone in Lei Luo and his party have.

The silence of Thunderbolt City is terrifying, and it would be more appropriate to call it a solitude.

It's like a dead city where no one lives!

Looking at the walls of this gray stone building, a chill suddenly rose in everyone's hearts.

Defend against foreign enemies?

Wrong!

This wall is more like imprisoning the people inside.

The walls hundreds of meters high can make the people who watch it feel unusually cold, even more chilling than the late night.

Standing far away, you can clearly see the soldiers stationed on the city walls, but they are facing in the direction of the city!

Lei Luo held the purple-blooded wolf spirit in his arms, riding a purple-maned horse, his eyes fixed on the only entrance around the city wall, watching a group of people standing there quietly.

Lei Luo didn't know what he was thinking now, he just watched, was silent for a long time, and slowly moved forward with the carriage.

Now, there are two carriages left.

When leaving the previous mountain forest, Bai Lei hid the three carriages equipped with saint-level weapons in an abandoned small cave, and finally even hid this cave with a memorial scene.

During this period, Lei Luo's curiosity flourished, and he and his three best friends opened the wooden house of the three carriages, wanting to find out what this legendary saint-level weapon looked like.

Disappointingly, however, the contents were locked in a heavy white stone box, tightly wrapped around countless soul-binding locks.

Under the constant advice of Qi Lei, the four finally dispelled their curiosity.

Because once the restraints are untied, the soul power of this saint-level weapon will be detected by the soul power powerhouses in Howling Thunder City.

After hiding the carriage, Lei Luo, Han Lingxuan, Yan Yaling, and Yan Dan, these four teenagers and girls were each riding a purple-maned horse at the moment, and they followed Qi Lei one after another.

With the help of the white moonlight, getting closer and closer to the city gate, the five Lei Luo finally saw the group of people standing in front of the city gate clearly.

Before officially starting this journey, Lei Luo had learned about the situation in Thunder City from Ren and Lei Ming, so now, Lei Luo naturally knew the origin of this group of people in an instant.

The young man standing at the front who looked to be in his twenties was the current city lord of Thunder City, Ning Ning!

He had bright purple hair, a neat and tidy robe that highlighted his elegant temperament, and a smile on the corner of his mouth was polite and gentle but solemn.

A short-haired middle-aged man beside him is also a figure that Lei Luo knows, the current commander of the Third Legion of the Land of Thunder, Li Bin!

Behind these two leaders, this group of heavily armed soldiers must be the soldiers of the Third Legion.

And it must be the elite captain of the weapons team!

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Prince!"

As Lei Luo and his party came to a position just a hundred steps away from the city gate, Jing Ning also walked slowly to meet him, and said with a smile: "The road is long, Your Highness has worked hard all the way. ”

Looking at the scene in front of him, Lei Luo suddenly had an inexplicable illusion.

As a prince, Lei Luo has been learning etiquette in the royal castle since he was a child, and naturally knows these indispensable etiquette.

The Hundred Steps Ceremony, which is the number of rites that every lord of the city in every kingdom uses when facing members of the royal family.

Although this is not a necessary etiquette, it is undoubtedly a more traditional and easy way to show respect and loyalty.

Moreover, these soldiers of the Third Legion are also exercising the most appropriate courtesy.

This is the etiquette that the soldiers of the legion should perform when facing the members of the royal family of their own kingdom, and it has been the case since ancient times.

Because the warriors need to be ready to fight at all times, maintain the highest level of vigilance, and not be distracted in the slightest, just pay attention to the salute.

But at this moment, because of his inexplicable illusion, this scene was a different scene in Lei Luo's eyes.

Although the eyes and smile of the 100-step ritual were very sincere, Lei Luo felt that the Ning did not seem to really welcome him, and there was a trace of flatness hidden in the depths of his eyes.

Compared to the obvious enthusiasm now, Lei Luo felt that Ning Ning didn't care about his arrival.

Perhaps, because of this white and strange moonlight, the soldiers who exercised the gaze salute were like cold statues, their eyes were empty, and they did not seem to see themselves at all.

Lei Luo didn't understand why he had such an illusion, and in silence, the boy's mind was racing rapidly.

Perhaps, it was because I unconsciously discovered some strange details and instinctively had an idea.

Perhaps, it was just because of his own preconceived notions, after all, Lei Luo had heard rumors about this town before he came here.

Tear down the city lord?

Looking at Ning Ning, who had approached, Lei Luo was a little puzzled, this young city lord was his father's apprentice, and it seemed that he didn't think he was a person who would behave out of line.

"Your Highness, it's already late at night, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion to rest first, and I'll take you to the town tomorrow morning to inspect the town. Yan Ning dragged Lei Luo's purple-maned horse, looked at the three of Han Lingxuan behind him, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Prince's food conference this time is impressive, and I hope His Royal Highness can comment on the special food of Thunder City tomorrow." ”

"Good. ”

Although Lei Luo was a little distracted, he still replied politely, and the young man's hand kept caressing the purple-blooded wolf spirit in his arms.

In order to avoid being noticed by people and beasts, on his previous journey, he used Memories on Xiao Ling, transforming his coat color and pupils into normal appearances.

"I've heard interesting stories about His Highness for a long time, but I didn't expect His Highness to have a beast partner, it seems that the little wolf should have been born less than half a year ago. Looking at Lei Luo's movements, Jing Ning chuckled and started the topic, and continued: "But its temperament is very good, and it will be promoted to a wise beast soon!"

Although Ning Ning's words were polite words, they just guessed the facts, and Lei Luo hurriedly hugged Xiao Ling tightly and stopped the little wolf from roaring with dissatisfaction.

"Your Highness!"

When he came to the city gate, the legion commander Li Bin also bowed slightly and saluted Lei Luo.

With Li Bin's movements, the surrounding soldiers also made the same reaction, although the movements were slight, but in such a quiet night, the metal sound of the armor was particularly obvious.

"Lord Li!"

Qi Lei also exercised etiquette towards these two leaders, but Jing Ning and Li Bin did not react in the slightest, and the focus of these two people has always been on Lei Luo.

Looking around, Lei Luo had a general impression of the layout of this Thunder City.

This town built on the edge of the sea cliff has only this city wall and a city gate, and this gate is no worse than any gate of the Thunder Court, and it can pass hundreds of people at once!

Scanning the surroundings, Lei Luo noticed that the shoulders of the armor of these soldiers were engraved with a three-character character, which was the symbol of the Third Legion.

But not a word.

Lei Luo knew that Zi Ling did not appear in the city.

In fact, Lei Luo had expected this situation before the journey began, so he didn't react at the moment.

Jian Ning and Li Bin can't be allowed to perceive this hidden situation.

This was a situation that Relo had been prepared for in the first place.

After all, the situation in the easternmost town of this Thunder Country is not clear at all, he is in the light, Ziling is in the dark, and in the event of any unexpected situation, the Thunder Country can respond as quickly as possible!

Thinking of this, Lei Luo was also mentally prepared, after all, Zi Ling had arrived here a long time ago, but now she didn't show up, which can only explain one point.

There is indeed a problem with Thunder City!

Suddenly, Xiao Ling interrupted Lei Luo's thoughts, and the little wolf had been drilling around in the boy's arms, as if trying to get Lei Luo's attention.

Although Xiao Ling is young, it is worthy of being a wise beast, and its movements are only noticed by Lei Luo alone, and its senses are also very keen.

At the same time that Lei Luo stopped thinking, he also noticed the strangeness of this Thunder City.

Quiet horrible!

On the main road leading to the City Lord's Mansion, Lei Luo found that this Howling Thunder City was completely different from any town or village in his knowledge!

As far as the eye could see, there was no light on all the streets of the town, except for some faint light in the buildings of some residential areas.

And, apart from my own group now, there wasn't a sound in the whole town!

Quiet, you can clearly hear any wind and grass.

"Don't the people of Thunder City have nightlife?" "Ray Luo looked around, and finally asked the doubts in his heart, and said softly, "I found that there are very few inns here, not even as many as in some large villages, why is that?"

"Your Highness doesn't know, these are the traditions of our town, after all, there is nothing to be nostalgic for here, and everyone here has their own rich life, and there is no need to contact people from other towns or villages. ”

At this time, the person who answered Lei Luo's question was Li Bin, who was walking not far behind him, but the young man's eyes stayed on Ning Ning, especially when Li Bin said the words 'our town', Lei Luo clearly captured the helplessness that flashed in Ning Ning's eyes.

"Isn't my trip a break in your tradition?" Lei Luo subconsciously asked.

"Your Highness, I am too worried, all the traditions of Thunder City since ancient times are not aimed at members of the royal family, after all, we are all people of the Land of Thunder. Jing Ning had been dragging Lei Luo's purple-maned horse all the way, and now it was the first time he looked sideways at Lei Luo, and then said with a smile: "It's been a long time since a member of the royal family visited Howling Thunder City, and I remember that the last time was two years ago, and the Thunder Emperor only came here for a morning, and no royal family member stayed here for a night for decades. ”

"Therefore, the arrival of His Highness this time is really a surprise to us, and I hope that this trip will also surprise His Highness. ”

At this moment, Ning Ning's words were still polite words, but Lei Luo didn't care, the young man had been focusing on observing the details.

And Ray Lo found out!

Looking back on this short period of time, from the beginning of meeting Ning Ning and Li Bin to the present, Lei Luo found that Li Bin has always called the name of Thunder City our town, but the city lord Ning Ning only said Thunder City.

Who is the lord of the city?

This is Lei Luo's current depression, he really wants to ask this question directly, but because he doesn't know much about the situation here, Lei Luo still suppresses this doubt in his heart again.

But at the same time, Lei Luo was also a little angry.

Annoyed by Wren and Thunder.

Neither of them had ever told them about the situation in front of them.

At least, Lei Luo now knew why this Li Bin was here.

The second largest town in the Land of Thunder is the base of the Third Legion!

Although it was an absolute military secret, Relo felt that his father should tell him about it.

Now it seems that the complicated situation of this Thunder City is far beyond his expectations!

Suddenly, a slight shout came from a distance, seemingly dozens of streets away.

But in such a quiet environment, Lei Luo and his party heard it clearly.

Hearing this shout, Li Bin winked at a soldier beside him.

Passing by the mouth of an alley, the soldier quietly hid inside.

All of this was under Lei Luo's eyes, but after pondering for a while, Lei Luo still chose to be silent.

Because at this moment, Lei Luo suddenly had an inexplicable sense of crisis.

It seems that there is some conspiracy in this Thunder City.
