Chapter 1004: The Speech of the Lord and the Princess

"Fire a salute! Welcome the King's triumph!"

Seeing Lei Xiao and Ariel both arriving at the guest of honor area in front of the central square, the middle-aged palace chief of ceremonies, who had been waiting for a long time, had a solemn face. He first bowed to Lei Xiao and Ariel, and then shouted road.

boom! boom! boom!

Hearing the sound, hundreds of magic salute guns had been deployed around the square. Under the control of palace magicians in red robes, hundreds of cannons fired at once. The magic light shone with an astonishing momentum.

Feeling the neat roar ringing in his ears, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

Having personally participated in a series of **** battles, he could clearly tell the difference.

Compared with normal magic cannons, magic salutes hardly produce any energy waves when fired, but retain the momentum and flash of the magic cannon, which is quite magical.

Accompanied by the firing of magic salutes, it not only highlighted the grandness of the ceremony, but also directly pushed the crowded venue to the climax.

The shouts of "Long live your guest" and "Long live your Royal Highness" resounded across the sky again, even rivaling the salute of salutes.

Amid the cheers of hundreds of thousands of people, Lei Xiao and Ariel dismounted one after another and began to greet the guests in the guest area one by one under Wu's introduction.

In addition to the members of the three neutral organizations that Lei Xiao saw at the beginning, diplomats from other human nations also appeared one after another and came forward to politely congratulate them, making the whole scene lively.

"Your Excellency, this is General Dis, the Moon Palace Attaché of the Holy Night Kingdom, this is Mr. Herbert, the Foreign Affairs Member of the House of Lords of the Canlan Federation, and this is the Foreign Minister Spencer of the Pars Empire Palace Office. Marquis, this is Sir Barnes, the diplomatic undersecretary of the Holy King’s Hall in the Kingdom of Grimm…”

Through Wu's introduction, Lei Xiao smiled and greeted these diplomats from various human countries for a long time. What the other party said was nothing more than some extremely official remarks and compliments.

Such as "His Excellency Ke Qing is extraordinary in martial arts and is indeed a model general for our human nations. I hope I can get your guidance from Your Excellency Ke Qing some time." ", "The Kingdom of Grim is willing to strengthen cooperation in all aspects with the Kingdom of Cold Flame led by Your Excellency Keqing, and further develop trade" and so on.

During this process, Lei Xiao further noticed.

Although every diplomat from another country has a heartfelt and sincere smile on their face, it makes people feel like they are communicating with old friends who talk about everything, without any hindrance between them.

But in fact, they are just empty words and have no practical meaning.

"I have to say that the abilities of these guys are indeed extraordinary. They are born with a strong affinity, and each one of them is extremely capable. If we let down our guard due to this, I am afraid that the unlucky ones will be me and the Cold Flame Kingdom."

While Lei Xiao was thinking this in his heart, he still smiled and responded to the compliments that everyone on the other side kept throwing at him.

Lei Xiao clearly understood that although the officials of other countries all showed a peaceful appearance, they were scrambling to show their favor to him.

But the real situation is that the surrounding countries have already been eyeing the newly abandoned Leng Yan Kingdom, and may send troops to attack it at any time, or even trigger a war to destroy the country.

But at least until the war officially begins, this false sense of goodwill and calm will continue.

"It is indeed not an easy task to rule a huge country."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao, already under Wu's guidance, bid farewell to the officials for the time being and came to the team of members of the three neutral forces.

"Congratulations, Your Excellency, I wish the Lengyan Kingdom prosperity."

"I hope that our Alchemist Guild can have a happy cooperation with Your Excellency Keqing and develop together for a win-win situation."

"Haha, to be able to see such an upright and energetic outstanding young man taking charge of the Cold Flame Kingdom, this country shrouded in gloomy clouds will finally return to the light."

Compared with officials from other countries, the representatives of the three neutral forces were obviously much more straightforward, and they all nodded to Lei Xiao.

This is no wonder. After all, neutral forces do not interfere in the affairs of human nations, and they have no territorial or interest involvement. As long as they can maintain sufficient respect and cooperation with each other, it will naturally be good for you and me.

"Please rest assured that the Kingdom of Lengyan will continue to maintain close cooperation with the Mercenary Guild, the Alchemist Guild, and the Temple of Light, and will do its best to provide convenience for you. Thank you for your continued support of the Kingdom of Lengyan."

With a smile on his face, Lei Xiao and Ariel nodded politely to the representatives of the neutral forces one by one, making the whole scene look extremely harmonious.

After greeting the representatives of the Mercenary Guild and the Alchemist Guild, Lei Xiao finally came to the Chief Light Bishop Old Severn.

Naturally, Lei Xiao had to maintain enough respect for this powerful man at the national level. After all, Lei Xiao now represented not only himself, but the entire Cold Flame Kingdom.

"Your Excellency, Chief Bishop Severn, I have heard everything from Mr. Wu. I would like to thank Your Excellency, Chief Bishop, for your care and concern for the old king during this period. The Kingdom of Cold Flame will never forget His Excellency Chief Bishop's help."

Lei Xiao nodded and smiled at the kind old man in front of him.

"Your Excellency, you are so polite. I just did what I should do. His Majesty the King of Steel Wrist has worked hard throughout his life to conquer the northern territory externally, and benevolent and caring for the people internally. He is a wise king and deserves to be favored by God."

Severn stroked his gray beard with respect, and then sighed heavily and said: "It's a pity that my ability is limited. Even though I tried all kinds of methods, and even consulted His Majesty the Pope, I still couldn't find the crux of His Majesty the Steel Wrist King's problem. , Ashamed.”

As soon as Seven's sad and regretful old voice fell, Lei Xiao could clearly feel that Ariel's body beside him was trembling slightly, obviously thinking of her father who was seriously ill in bed.

Lei Xiao first patted Ariel's shoulder gently, silently comforting the Princess Lengyan who was about to be crowned.

Then, he said to the old red-robed priest: "Your Excellency, the chief bishop, is serious. It is my honor to receive your full treatment. It is an honor for me, the Lengyan Kingdom. The royal family will send generous gifts afterwards. Please spare no effort to treat me." Support the royal family as always."

"Haha, with the words of Your Excellency Keqing, I must be duty-bound."

Old Severn nodded to Lei Xiao and Ariel respectively, and said with a smile: "I believe that with Your Excellency Ke Qing and Her Royal Highness the Princess in charge, the Lengyan Kingdom will definitely come out of the gloom as soon as possible and return to the gaze of God again. Of course, , I, the Temple of Light, will also fully support it within a reasonable range.”

"Then please leave it to the Chief Bishop."

After saying a few more polite words to each other, Lei Xiao and Ariel walked to the top of the guest area, a high platform built with magic.

According to the process of the triumphal ceremony, it was next time for Lei Xiao and Ariel to give speeches to the eagerly awaiting people. This was undoubtedly the fastest way to inspire people.

Seeing Lei Xiao and Ariel take their places one after another, the central square where hundreds of thousands of people gathered suddenly became silent, and it could be seen that more people were coming from all directions.

"Everyone who is a citizen of Lengyan Kingdom, good afternoon."

Lei Xiao, who was already familiar with speeches, took the first step forward and said loudly: "I know that everyone present, including the entire kingdom, has experienced a dark period that is unbearable to look back on."

"At that time, the lion flag was not flying, the tower collapsed, everyone was struggling in the darkness, and the royal capital was sinking in the whirlpool of blood and fire, without a glimmer of hope."

"But after the dark night there will be dawn, and after the storm there will be a rainbow. I solemnly declare here that the darkness has passed, there will be no more smoke in the capital, and this land will always be shrouded in dawn and hope!"

Accompanied by Lei Xiao's sonorous and powerful words, they resounded through every corner of the royal capital through the sound transmission array. People immediately cheered and jumped, as if a grand festival was coming.

"...Please remember that this credit does not only come from me and Her Royal Highness, but also from everyone present. It is you who gave me and Her Royal Highness the strength to move forward and fight."

"Shout "Hero", shout "Long Live", each of you is the hero of your family, your own hero, and the hero of the kingdom! "

"It is precisely because of the perseverance and courage of each of you that a complete Lengyan Kingdom has been formed, and the Lengyan Kingdom's everlasting glory has been created!"

After Lei Xiao's words fell, he saw that inside and outside the central square, and even in every block of the royal capital, whether they were civilians, nobles, or soldiers maintaining order, they all cried with joy and hugged each other.

In the increasingly lively atmosphere, Ariel slowly walked to the center of the high platform.

"Dear citizens of the Cold Flame Kingdom, just as my guest said, your courage moves me and is also the source of my strength. The Kingdom of Cold Flame will eventually prosper because of you, and become rich and powerful because of you! "

Ariel's steady and powerful clear voice echoed in the ears of everyone in the royal capital.

"As your princess, and as your soon-to-be-crowned king, I promise you here that all of you will receive the protection of the royal family and move forward under the lion flag. Your enemy is the royal family. enemy!"

"...Whether they are nobles or commoners, anyone who dares to trample on His Majesty the Heroic King's motto or dare to trample and challenge the authority of the royal family will be struck by the royal family's thunder. I will never tolerate one cent!"

When Ariel said this, her eyes passed over the diplomats from other countries intentionally or unintentionally, and she continued to speak sternly.

"The sleeping lion has awakened. Any force that dares to attempt to invade the Cold Flame Kingdom will be attacked by the lion's fury and sharp claws until death!"

"...Finally, please remember that the royal family and nobles will always be a shield to protect the common people, not a sword to pierce the common people. I am willing to use myself as a shield to protect everyone in the Cold Flame Kingdom!"

As soon as Ariel said this, the whole king was excited again.

Everyone clearly understood that with their princess, no, with the words of their soon-to-be-crowned queen, plus the assistance of Lord Ke Qing.

This fragmented country will soon return to its peak and become the center of all human nations, and it will even be stronger!

So what if a foreign enemy covets you? As long as the whole kingdom works together, no one can defeat this newly awakened lion!

For a time, no matter whether it was the nobles in the guest area or the crowds of people around, everyone looked happy and excited, with excited eyes shining brightly.

Seeing how easily Lei Xiao and Ariel controlled everything, the diplomats from other countries, although they still had harmless smiles on the surface, were thinking secretly in their hearts.

From this, it is not difficult to see that the knowledge and skills of these two people are far beyond those of the failed princes, and are even comparable to the wisest monarchs of the Cold Flame Kingdom.

If time passes, it will definitely become a serious problem for other surrounding human nations, not to mention that the methods of the foreign guest are unfathomable.

"The report must be made immediately. Every minute of delay will be dangerous. It must not be ignored easily. Just like what Princess Leng Yan said, the sleeping lion has opened its **** mouth."

While the diplomats were thinking this, they nodded vaguely to the entourage beside them, and the latter immediately understood and began to prepare the means to send back the information.

In the cheering venue, this obscure scene did not attract anyone's attention at all, as if nothing had happened.

After that, Lei Xiao and Ariel led the nobles and guests to conduct a rather spectacular military parade.

Present were not only the soldiers brought by Lei Xiao, but also the royal legion and the Guards legion under his command.

This densely armored and uniform scene naturally attracted cheers from the crowd.

It was not until sunset that Lei Xiao and Ariel said goodbye to the nobles and guests, and then under Wu's guidance, they walked towards the palace in the center of the royal capital.

The setting sun was in the sky, reflecting everything into a gentle orange-red color. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Not long after, a city within a city with high walls and deep pools came into view in front of Lei Xiao.

"Is this where the royal family is?"

Looking at the towering city wall that was getting closer, Lei Xiao, who was riding on a tall horse, nodded slightly.

On the city wall densely covered with arrow towers, the lion flag representing the royal family was fluttering, and there was an endless stream of soldiers patrolling and standing guard, which made people feel dazzled.

And on the periphery of the city wall, a translucent protective shield with colorful flashes of light occasionally loomed, which was naturally the absolute defensive barrier covering the Lengyan Palace.

Compared with ordinary cities, this city not only looks much stronger, but also exudes a very rich and solemn atmosphere, which makes people feel awe-inspiring.

"I've never felt such awe."

Lei Xiao's eyes moved, staring at the huge city bathed in the sunset, and the curiosity on his face became more obvious. (End of chapter)
