#1529 - The road to dinner
Opposite Bissos, the tall figure ignored him and came straight to Loris, asking with concern, "Are you okay?"
The giant, shining magic street lamp on the street reflected a resolute face with black hair and black eyes. It looked angular, and it was undoubtedly Lei Xiao.
"I'm fine. Thank you, His Majesty, for your help."
Loris shook his head and expressed gratitude to Lei Xiao.
The rainforest leader clearly understood that if Lei Xiao did not take action in time, he would probably be seriously injured this time. The most critical thing was that it would greatly encourage the opponent's arrogance.
Seeing Lei Xiao forcefully defeat the giant general who was as big as a mountain, our strong men present were all excited and their morale was obviously boosted.
While feeling excited, the strong men from the two alliances looked at Lei Xiao with doubt and confusion.
The strength of His Majesty the Human Race seems to be just over the sixth level, but he was able to defeat Bissos, who was at the peak of the sixth level, in one fell swoop. This is simply unbelievable!
You know, even a peak level six warrior of the same strength can never surpass a half-Titan warrior in strength!
Noticing everyone's puzzled looks, Lei Xiao remained calm.
The reason why I could easily defeat my opponent was actually very simple.
That is, at the moment of fighting with the opponent, Xuan Ji instantly strengthened himself to the half-step seventh level.
After fighting side by side so many times, Xuan Ji and I already had a very good understanding of each other, and coupled with our telepathic connection, it was not difficult to do this, even when Xuan Ji was in the form of [God's Stone].
While knocking the opponent away, he ordered Xuan Ji to cancel the enhancement, so that the entire duration was less than one second, which made it difficult for others to notice.
There is no doubt that with his strength of half a step to the seventh level, no matter how powerful the opponent is, he still cannot cross the gap in level even a little bit, so it is not surprising that he was knocked away.
"Are you the human emperor?"
Bissos rubbed his numb fist, his eyes filled with doubt and uncertainty.
At the moment of fighting with Lei Xiao, he felt an irresistible powerful force rushing towards him, which was like a crushing force.
But after knocking him away, the force immediately disappeared, so that he himself didn't figure out how Lei Xiao, with his strength of just over the sixth level, managed to do that.
"You are not equal to me, and you are not qualified to talk to me."
Lei Xiao naturally would not give a good face to the giant general who was trying to show off his power to us, and said lightly: "Lead the way."
"How dare a mere human emperor be so arrogant!"
Hearing that Lei Xiao didn't take him seriously at all, Bissus, who was already embarrassed, became furious. He growled and pressed down with his strong legs, preparing to attack Lei Xiao again.
But this time, before he could shoot out, he felt a dazzling purple magical light in front of him, and Lei Xiao instantly appeared behind him, kicking the inside of his knee.
Bang!
With a muffled sound of the energy barrier collapsing, Bissus's huge body suddenly fell to the ground half-kneeling, unable to straighten up for a while.
Lei Xiao had already stood in front of him again and said calmly: "Since you, the general, don't know the etiquette, I might as well teach you a lesson on behalf of your master."
"You are going too far!"
Seeing Lei Xiao forcing Bissus to kneel on the ground, both the angry Bissus himself and the semi-Titan warriors who were accompanying him were stunned and wanted to rush forward. All the warriors on our side also stood around Lei Xiao, ready for battle.
Seeing this, Manager I finally couldn't sit still anymore, and took a group of market guards to stop the giants.
While stopping Bissos, Manager I did not forget to look back at Lei Xiao, his eyes full of surprise and helplessness.
Originally, he was prepared to see Lei Xiao and others make a fool of themselves, but he didn't expect that Lei Xiao was not afraid at all. Instead, he made Bissos suffer a great loss. This was obviously beyond his expectations.
After all, this is the home ground of the Demi-Titans and Stone Giants. As the saying goes, you have to look at the owner before you beat the dog. Even if Lei Xiao can subdue Bissus, he has to consider the other more powerful Demi-Titans behind Bissus, right?
However, Lei Xiao didn't care at all and didn't give the Half-Titan any face at all.
Manager I clearly understood that, at least from the current situation, Lei Xiao's side was obviously stronger than Bissos and others. In addition, Lei Xiao seemed to have mastered some secret method to enhance his strength. Once the fight started, Bissos and others would definitely be at a disadvantage, and he would not be able to explain to Half-Titan at that time.
"It's no wonder. After all, the human emperor has just entered the Outer Realm not long ago. It seems that he is still shallow in knowledge. Now that he has been in the limelight, he will have to bear the consequences soon. You know, half-Titans are a group of people who will never let go of any grudges."
Although he still looked down on Lei Xiao, Manager I calmed Bissos down and smiled at him, saying, "Your Majesty, the Shadow Market is not an arena. Please calm down."
"Really? If the Shadow Market is not an arena, then why didn't the Administrator stop them when they first attacked?"
Lei Xiao also did not give Manager I any face and said lightly.
"Haha, it's just a misunderstanding. It's all a misunderstanding."
Manager I's laughter became more awkward, and he made a "please" gesture again and said, "Dear guests, the banquet venue is not far from here."
After the intervention of Manager I, Bissos, knowing that he could not gain any advantage, calmed down and gave way without saying a word.
After that, the group did not encounter any obstacles and soon arrived near an extremely large giant building.
Judging from the giant steps in front of the huge building, the brightly lit windows, and the giant doors, this place is obviously tailor-made for giants.
All around the giant building stood fully armed giant warriors, which looked like small hills.
With the door in the middle as the boundary, on the left are the half-Titans that Lei Xiao and others had just seen, and on the right are a group of new giants whose burly figures are comparable to the former.
These giants were all wearing silver armor, and their exposed skin was dark gray like stone, looking extremely hard.
Manager I still had that extremely enthusiastic tone, as if nothing had just happened, and said, "Please come in."
After saying that, Manager I walked towards the normal steps next to the giant steps and continued to lead Lei Xiao and his group.
"Mr. Manager, these are the guests I am waiting for, right?"
The leading stone giant general stepped forward and blocked our way.
Unlike Bissos, this tall and strong stone giant general was wearing a robe and was obviously a powerful magician.
"Your Majesty, this guy is called Rock, and his strength is at the peak of the sixth level, just like Bissos."
Xina frowned slightly and whispered to Lei Xiao.
It can be clearly heard that Xina's tone is full of solemnity and caution, and she is obviously quite afraid of the other party.
This was indeed the case. In the confrontation with the opponent, Xina had never won once, and even her most powerful petrification spell had no effect on the opponent.
In addition, the opponent is also known for his cunning, and is a rare wise general among the giants. He once used the strength of a fourth-level legion of stone giants to repel three fourth-level legions under Sina.
"Excuse me, General Rock, what can I do for you?"
Manager I stopped and asked the other party.
"Mr. Administrator, the invitation letter only invites the human emperor and two leaders. Isn't this a bit too many people?"
Rock tapped the ground lightly with the tail of his giant staff and said with a smile, "The one attending the banquet is our great king. How can he be seen casually by ordinary people?"
"General, you are absolutely right. I was negligent."
Administrator I said belatedly, turned to Lei Xiao and said in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, please see..."
At this point, the matter is self-evident. This must have been discussed in advance between the manager and the other party in order to make things difficult for us.
Before the manager could finish his words, Xi Na walked up to him, frowning and saying, "What a joke! The invitation letter didn't specify that we can't bring guards and followers. Your master can bring them, but we can't?"
"Hey, isn't this Chief Huangsha? It seems that the injuries I caused last time have completely healed. This is really cause for celebration."
Rock looked at Xi Na with a smile and said, "Why? Did you find a backer this time?"
“You bastard…”
Before Xina could finish her words, Lei Xiao had already patted her on the shoulder, signaling her not to pay attention to her deliberate obstruction.
"It's just a watchdog, no need to worry about it."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and took the first step.
"Your Majesty is so majestic, so be it."
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, although Rock was furious, he still did not stop him and gave way with an indifferent look on his face.
Looking at Lei Xiao who was the first to be hit, a hint of cunning emerged on Rock's dark gray face, and he looked calm and unhurried.
He had already deployed a series of magic traps on the path that Lei Xiao had to take. Although they were not fatal, they were enough to catch anyone who entered by surprise, and all their equipment would be destroyed.
Since Lei Xiao stepped in without knowing the consequences, he would like to take a good look at how miserable the former would be.
Around Rock, a group of giant guards also cast meaningful glances at him, all of them looking like they were enjoying the show.
Especially those stone giant guards, they almost pictured Lei Xiao's embarrassed posture in their minds.
You know, Rock is one of the top three magical masters among the stone giants. He is also the genius-level existence that is closest to the half-step seventh level among the peak sixth level. His magical ability is unparalleled. Isn't it easy for him to deal with the mere human race?
Amidst the mocking looks cast at him, even Manager I had the same expression, and even quietly stepped back a few steps to avoid being affected.
Under the gaze of everyone, Lei Xiao stepped lightly and entered the opponent's magic trap area.
However, under everyone's expectant gaze, the magic trap that should have exploded seemed to have malfunctioned and there was no reaction at all.
It was not until Lei Xiao stepped into the magnificent building hall unhindered that wherever he went, there was a crackling sound of lightning, which burned the ground black and soon disappeared.
"What happened? The magic traps that I carefully deployed were broken silently?!"
Looking at Lei Xiao's tall back, there was no trace of the calmness and playfulness on Rock's huge gray face, and his eyes were wide open, almost popping out of their sockets.
The other giant guards who were ready to watch the show just looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
Among the astonished crowd, only Manager I took a deep breath and for the first time there was a hint of implicit respect in his eyes when he looked towards Lei Xiao.
The human emperor must have discovered Rock's magic trap long ago, and as soon as he stepped into the magic trap, he quietly broke it with the force of thunder. Such a fierce method would probably be difficult for even the manager himself to do.
Just as Manager I thought, Lei Xiao had indeed discovered the opponent's tricks a long time ago.
As for the means of breaking the magic trap, it was accomplished together with Xuan Ji, but it all happened in a flash, and Xuan Ji had always maintained the form of [God's Stone] and did not show any energy fluctuations, so naturally no one else could see any clues.
Just when Rock and the manager were surprised, not only Lei Xiao himself, but also a group of our strong men successfully entered the hall.
"Tsk, so what even if you break my magic trap? The strength of those bigwigs attending the banquet is far beyond your imagination!"
Rock looked furious and sneered, "Don't blame me for not reminding you. This is just the beginning!"
Hearing that, the manager's gaze returned to normal. The former was right. This time, the semi-titans and stone giants were all top-level warriors. With such luxurious combat power put together, it would be easy to deal with the human emperor and his entourage.
In any case, if the human emperor is still so powerful, it will be difficult to leave here safely.
Just when the manager was thinking of this, Lei Xiao turned his head slightly and said to the former calmly: "What? You are not leading the way in front?"
"Come on, come on."
Manager I's voice revealed his signature smile again, and he appeared in front of the group of people in a flash.
Under the guidance of the manager, the group went up along the ordinary steps beside the giant platform and soon arrived in front of a giant door.
"Your Majesty, this is where the banquet will be held."
As the manager's voice fell, the giant door slowly opened.
However, when Lei Xiao and his companions saw the scene inside the door, they could not help but frown. (End of this chapter)
