Chapter 1280 Lords and Managers

Noticing Hong Ye's emotional fluctuations, Lei Xiao first gave the former a steady and firm look, and then refocused his attention on the manager's thick heavy armor.

From what the manager just said, we have obtained several extremely critical clues.

First, the Red Dragon is currently the overlord of this area and has caused a lot of trouble here. Whether it is for Red Night, for the dwarf elf prince Vader, to help the Shadow Market improve its ranking, or to unite other forces in this area, the Red Dragon must be defeated. This is also the goal that he has always adhered to.

Second, the three major forces in this area, apart from the dwarves, are the tree people and wood elves, and both are greatly restrained by the red dragon.

The most crucial thing is that all three have fought fiercely with the red dragon, and all ended in failure. In other words, we and the three have a common opponent.

Third, although the dwarf kingdom became the lair of the red dragon, fortunately the dwarfs were not completely destroyed. This undoubtedly meant that he could still use the token of the dwarf prince Vader and find a way to quickly build closer relations with the dwarfs.

The last point is the specific strength of the red dragons. In addition to hundreds of ordinary fifth-level dragons, there are also an unknown number of sixth-level dragon king-level dragons. This is obviously an object that we cannot contend with alone. Once the opponent rushes towards the human world in an overwhelming manner, the result can be imagined.

"Were we facing such a powerful enemy right after entering the Outer Realm?"

"I thought the Red Dragon might be very strong, but I didn't expect it to be this strong. Fortunately, the human race is not fighting alone. As long as we can successfully form an alliance with other forces, we will have a better chance of winning."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao's slightly surprised look gradually calmed down.
"Your Majesty, are you really prepared to confront the Red Dragon head-on?"

Noticing Lei Xiao's determined look, this time it was the manager who was surprised.

"Your Excellency, Administrator, I have just expressed my opinion. In the face of an unknown and dangerous catastrophe, the human race has long since reached a dead end. Rather than waiting for destruction in despair, it is better to rush into the future and win a glimmer of hope for ourselves."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly and responded: "Although the current strength of the human race is extremely limited, the human race will never give in in the face of adversity."

"Your Majesty's courage is amazing."

The manager's voice showed a hint of respect, which soon turned into worry. He carefully chose his words and said, "But the other party is too powerful..."

The manager didn't finish his words, but the meaning was self-evident.

"Your Excellency the Administrator must think that I am too reckless, right? Indeed, in the history of the human race, it is not uncommon for a single giant dragon to destroy several towns or even a small country. What's more, hundreds of organized and most volatile red dragons, the blazing flames that burn everything are indeed a nightmare for the human race."

Lei Xiao restrained his smile and said with a serious face: "But please remember one thing, Your Excellency the Administrator. Recklessness is always closer to bravery than cowardice and incompetence. Whether it is the glorious ancient human race in the Silver Moon Era or the human world today, although there is a gap in strength, the perseverance and courage of the human race have never been erased by time."

"I think I understand your majesty's decision."

The manager pondered for a long while, and finally nodded emphatically and said, "From your majesty's previous performance on the battlefield, it can be seen that your majesty is in control of the situation, and the move must be a killing move. I believe he must have some calculations in his mind."

At this point, the manager's voice revealed a hint of curiosity, and asked, "Can you tell me what your majesty is going to do next?"

"Of course, the human race always tells their friends everything they know and never hides anything."

Lei Xiao nodded without hesitation, first nodding to signal the subordinates who had activated the soundproof barrier to supply the maximum energy, and then responded: "In my hometown, there is a word called unity, strength, which means that as long as everyone works together, they can overcome difficulties as solid as a city wall."

"So, the answer is self-evident. It is exactly what I mentioned just now. Unite with other forces oppressed by the red dragon, gather more powerful forces, and fight together to defeat the red dragon."

After hearing Lei Xiao's words, the manager looked at the other market guards again, and they all saw a touch of respect and nobility in each other's eyes.

You know, one of the most important reasons why all the races in the outside world are independent of each other is resources.

No force is willing to share important exchange items such as strength-enhancing potions, high-level equipment, high-level potion formulas, high-level equipment blueprints, etc. with other forces, because this may very likely become a sword to attack them, especially in the Outlands, a land where the strong are supreme.

In addition, precious natural treasures and rare minerals with limited production are naturally valuable resources in the eyes of every force. They are key items for alchemy of high-level potions and forging of high-level equipment.

Therefore, even if an alliance is formed occasionally, the two sides will soon part ways unhappily due to various resource issues such as competition and exchange, or even become enemies. This situation is even more so for those tribes with long lifespans. After all, a long lifespan means a relatively low reproductive capacity, and every member of the tribe is a target of key training.

Even the film markets are facing the same situation, and managers and others are well aware of this.

Judging from the attitude of Lei Xiao, the emperor of the human race in front of him, Lei Xiao is obviously genuinely prepared to form an alliance with other forces. This means that the human race must give up a considerable amount of resources, which is something that any foreign force can hardly do.

Of course, what the managers and others don’t know is that with the blessing of the golden finger, what Lei Xiao lacks the least is resources. What he lacks is only channels to find ready-made high-level items. As long as he can obtain these, Lei Xiao can naturally achieve win-win cooperation easily, and even conquer other forces based on his wealth and billions.

"Your Majesty's mind and wisdom are indeed incomparable to ordinary kings. I admire you deeply."

The manager sighed sincerely at first, and then said seriously: "I understand your majesty's decision. May I ask how your majesty needs us to cooperate?"

"The first targets of the alliance are naturally the three major forces of dwarves, tree people and wood elves."

Lei Xiao's eyes were like torches as he responded, "Although I have been recognized by the dwarf elf royal family by chance, I have not yet established a formal cooperative relationship with the dwarf elves. So what I need to do now is to obtain all the intelligence and current dynamics of these three major forces, so as to find the possibility and opportunity of an alliance."

"I understand. I will tell you everything I know."

The manager waved his hand, and a detailed map of the surrounding area appeared along with the map stand. He began to describe everything in detail: "The area where the dwarfs are located is the Wumeng Canyon area, including the Wumeng Peak. There are mountain mists and steep mountains that linger all year round."

"The area where the tree people are located is a vast and deep sea of ​​trees on the other side. There is an extremely dense primeval forest there. Even the sunlight can hardly shine into the depths of the boundless sea of ​​trees."

"As for the wood elves, although their habits are somewhat similar to those of tree people, these guys with two pairs of transparent wings prefer places close to sunlight, so they built their own homes in the continuous peak forest secret realm..."

As an observer of the entire area, Shadow Market is well aware of all of this.

Through the manager's detailed description, Lei Xiao not only learned the specific information about the three major forces, but also had a clear understanding of the current situation of the three major forces. These information are undoubtedly important bargaining chips at the alliance negotiation table.

"Thank you for your help, Administrator."

After understanding everything, Lei Xiao asked for some information about other small and medium-sized forces, and got answers from the managers one by one.

These small and medium-sized forces are basically under the protection of the three major forces, and each has its own characteristics. In other words, as long as they can reach cooperation with the three major forces, these small and medium-sized forces will be no problem.

"These are what I should do. Your Majesty's arrival has finally brought a bit of coolness to this scorching land that has been shrouded in red clouds."

The administrator's voice was filled with excitement, and he continued, "The next thing your majesty wants to know is the information about the group of red dragons, right?"

"That's right, please enlighten me, Your Excellency the Administrator."

Lei Xiao maintained due respect and smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is what I should do."

The manager took a deep breath and continued his description.

Listening carefully to the other party's words, Lei Xiao learned more.

Since arriving in this area, the red dragons had no direct conflicts with the three major forces at first, but they refused to leave here under the pretext of looking for something.

However, after searching for hundreds of years in vain, the red dragons lost their patience and began to become irritable, which gradually led to conflicts with the three major forces, until they finally stood on opposite sides of each other.

In the end, the Red Dragon simply revealed his cards, with the aim of dominating these forces.

"Looking for something? Looking for Hong Ye?"

Lei Xiao thought about this in his mind, and then asked: "Mr. Administrator, are you saying that the red dragons are rampant in this area and trying to trample on all the forces in order to use these forces to help them find something?"

"Your Majesty, I thought the same thing at first. I thought the red dragon attacked the various tribes in order to expand its search for opportunities. However, after the red dragon completely defeated the dwarf kingdom, it simply drove them into the tunnels and did not ask the dwarfs to help look for anything."

The administrator's words were full of doubt, and he responded, "No one knows what those violent red guys are thinking, but their attempt to dominate this area is obvious."

"It's just that the tree people and wood elves relied on their own powerful absolute defense barrier that lasted for three thousand years. Taking advantage of the geographical location, they stayed in their own sphere of influence and did not come out. That's why the red dragons failed to completely conquer them."

Hearing the manager say this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but frown.

We are of course very clear that the other party intends to hunt down Hong Ye, but we don't know why the other party wants to dominate this land.

After all, according to his own inference, the other party's only reason was to mobilize other forces to search for Hong Ye together, but the other party did not do so.

With doubts, Lei Xiao's gaze moved and fell on Hong Ye's fair and heroic face. He saw that the latter pursed his red lips, and his starry eyes flashed with unprecedented fear and uneasiness. It was obvious that he knew something.

"It seems that it is time to learn the truth from Hong Ye. As a red dragon, why was she hunted by her own kind and had to hide in Fenglong City? Why did those red dragons occupy this area?"

Having made up his mind, Lei Xiao naturally would not ask Hong Ye on the spot.

This matter is too important. The secret that Hong Ye is the Red Dragon cannot be known to anyone, not even the Shadow Market who have just become friends.

"Mr. Administrator, I have already understood all the information you need to know. Thank you for telling me."

Lei Xiao nodded to the man in heavy brown armor and expressed his gratitude.

Although Lei Xiao was still very curious about the other party's true identity hidden in the armor, after all, they had just formed a cooperative relationship, and this was the other party's core secret, so Lei Xiao still knew his limits.

"Your Majesty is too polite. Since Your Majesty has promised to help us improve our market ranking, we must naturally treat you with sincerity."

The manager waved his hand slightly, and then asked seriously: "Then what are you going to do next, Your Majesty?"

"Just as I said just now, the top priority now is to form an alliance with the three major forces as soon as possible."

Lei Xiao's expression was firm and he said without hesitation.

"Your Majesty has the token of the dwarf royal family. It should not be difficult to form an alliance with the dwarfs. However, I have to remind your Majesty that both the tree people and the wood elves are extremely stubborn and will not easily believe in the existence of outsiders. Even though they are already extremely passive at the moment, if you want to get closer to them, I am afraid your Majesty will have to go through some trouble."

The manager's voice was filled with worry as he responded, "Although both of these forces have suffered heavy losses, their combined strength is still far superior to that of the human race in their respective home turfs, which they have operated for thousands of years. Your Majesty, please respond with caution."

"Thank you for your reminder, Administrator. I will never act rashly."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, ready to move on to the next topic.

As for the specific content of the next topic, it is naturally whether the other party can help repair our divinely favored land, which is crucial for the next action.

However, just as Lei Xiao was about to speak, Hong Ye's already solemn expression froze, and he quickly stepped forward and whispered, "My Lord, a large number of red dragons are approaching here!"

As soon as Hong Ye finished speaking, the manager and the two sixth-rank market guards apparently sensed something. They all paused in their heavy armor and began to look at each other.
