#1534 - A turbulent dinner party (Part 1)
As the old and majestic low voice fell, a gorgeous scarlet velvet carpet stretched out on the left side at the end of the banquet hall, emitting a dazzling magical glow.
Heavy and powerful footsteps were heard, and a burly giant holding a scepter paced on the red carpet surrounded by a group of giant attendants, and an extremely powerful energy wave surged out.
He was a giant king who looked extremely old, with his bronze face covered with crisscrossing wrinkles and scars, and his thick, gray beard was braided into strands with mithril threads, extending all the way to the bottom of his giant ears.
The golden crown on the old king's forehead was shining brightly, contrasting with the colorful dark gold robe he was wearing, reflecting an expressionless old face and a pair of turbid old eyes full of hostility.
Unlike his old face, his huge body is tall and sturdy, and even through his robe, one can see the obvious muscle contours, which is in no way inferior to Lux, Bissus and others.
"Meet my king!"
The moment the old king appeared, Mad Axe Prince Lux no longer cared about fighting with Peyton, and hurriedly knelt on the ground with other half-Titan warriors, pressing their giant heads against the ground with an extremely respectful look.
"Is this the leader of the Half-Titan clan? He looks pretty good, at least he is far superior to Lux."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and began to recall information about this half-Titan Lord. Although the other party's information was extremely limited, Xina and Loris still grasped some of it.
This old giant king is called Hollis II, also known as the Dome King. He has ruled the Demi-Titans for thousands of years. Needless to say, his own strength is at the Half-Step Seventh Stage. It is said that he is only a hair's breadth away from becoming a true Demigod. His strength is far beyond that of an ordinary Half-Step Seventh Stage powerhouse.
Just as Lei Xiao saw this, Hollis II had already sat down on the giant golden throne on the platform at the end of the red carpet, looking down at everyone present.
Hollis II did not ask the kneeling Semi-Titan warriors to stand up, but looked directly at Lei Xiao in the center of the venue and said expressionlessly: "Are you the emperor of the human race?"
"Shouldn't it be basic etiquette to introduce yourself before asking someone's identity?"
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and asked knowingly: "Who are you?"
"How dare you! This is our great Dome King, the Half-Titan. It is your honor to see his face!"
While worshipping, Lux shouted coldly: "Why don't you guys pay your respects quickly?"
However, although Lax spoke in a righteous manner, he actually did not have much confidence.
Originally, he had thought of this line long ago, and was going to recite it aloud after showing off his power to Lei Xiao and his group, in order to ensure the supremacy of the Half-Titan. However, Lei Xiao's strong move turned out to be a warning to him, so naturally he lacked confidence.
"How ridiculous! We were invited here, not on our own initiative. How can we say we are honored?"
Xi Na crossed her arms, with a look of disdain, and retorted: "It is your honor to meet the human king!"
"That's right. Even if we have to perform a salute, we will still bow down at the feet of His Majesty the Human Race!"
Hearing the sound, Lak was about to continue fighting with us, but was stopped by Hollis II.
"Human Emperor, do you think you can fight against me, the Half-Titan, with just you and the little toy on your shoulder?"
Hollis II first signaled all the Titans to stand up, and then his wrinkled old eyes flashed with sharpness, staring at Lei Xiao like a giant falcon, still expressionless, and said: "It may not be too late to repent now."
As Hollis II finished his words, a vast aura that was obviously much stronger than Lux's suddenly surged out and continued to surge back and forth in the banquet hall.
"My Lord, this guy has not only stepped half a foot into the seventh level, but the other foot is about to step in."
Xuanji frowned slightly and said to Lei Xiaoxin, "He may be much more difficult to deal with than Lax."
Before Xuan Ji finished speaking, another giant figure emerged beside Willis II like a ghost, stirring up an extremely strong fluctuation of spatial energy.
Looking carefully, it was a hunchbacked old giant wizard. The staff in his hand was like a tree trunk, disturbing the distortion of space, and his bronze old face was full of pride and disdain.
"Your Majesty, this guy is the half-Titan Prince of Nothingness Bruce. He is the third half-step seventh-level strongman after Bissos and Hollis II himself, and he is also an extremely rare space mage!"
Xi Na came to Lei Xiao with a nervous look on her face, frowned and whispered: "His control over space magic is extremely terrifying. It is said that even those space masters of first-class forces dare not underestimate him, and even avoid him!"
After Xina finished speaking, Loris, Old Gary and others all showed a hint of nervousness on their faces. At this point, the three most powerful Half-Step Seventh Order warriors of the Half-Titan had all appeared on the scene.
Regardless of whether it is Hollis II who appeared later or Prince Bruce of Nothingness, they are obviously much stronger than the original Lux, and are undoubtedly extremely difficult to deal with!
With Payton on the other side gearing up for a fight, the opponent's top combat power has undoubtedly reached four! And each one is stronger than the other!
As everyone realized this, the morale in our camp, which had been high, obviously declined. Only a petite hooded figure snorted with disdain. It was undoubtedly Jasmine.
Just now, she also heard Xina's introduction. The old giant magician actually claimed that he could make the space masters of first-class forces stay away from him. Isn't it obvious that this is exactly in line with her own situation?
If there was a chance to fight, she would like to see whether the old giant was really that powerful!
Beside Jasmine, Fei'er was staring at Lei Xiao's back, her starry eyes shining with irrepressible admiration and respect. It must be said that Lei Xiao's series of performances did not disappoint her expectations.
But in the final analysis, Jasmine and Fei'er were in the minority after all. Faced with the extreme oppression brought by the other four top powerhouses, even the direct subordinates who had been fighting under Lei Xiao had beads of sweat on their foreheads.
After Hollis II appeared, even those ordinary sixth-order semi-Titan warriors became more aggressive. Just because they were as big as mountains, they were already very difficult to deal with, not to mention that there were still two top-level Stone Giants who had not shown up.
"Half-Titan King, stop making alarmist statements. If we were afraid of you, we wouldn't be here for the feast."
Facing the threat from the other party, Lei Xiao's face did not show any ripples. He just pulled a chair and sat down casually, saying lightly: "Besides, just now your Prince Crazy Axe was fighting happily with the second elder of the Stone Giant. What is there to be afraid of in such a loose alliance?"
After Lei Xiao said this, the tension among us eased a lot.
His Majesty the Human is right. After all, the Demi-Titans and the Stone Giants are just a temporary alliance. Even though the other side has more people and more power, they may not be of one mind. This is our advantage!
"Interesting. So the gap between us is your greatest reliance?"
Hollis II narrowed his old eyes and said disdainfully: "Do you think that I, the Half-Titan, and the Stone Giant have not considered this? I'm afraid I will disappoint you."
"Haha, the Dome King is right. The alliance between us is not that fragile."
A series of clear laughter like silver bells rang out, and on another giant throne not far from Hollis II's throne, a graceful figure with a figure no different from that of a normal human suddenly emerged.
When the figure sitting on the giant throne became completely clear, everyone noticed it in surprise.
She turned out to be a beautiful human woman with thick and appropriate makeup on her fair and translucent face, especially her warm and fiery red lips which were extremely eye-catching.
He was wearing a slim-fitting set of bright silver armor that perfectly outlined his slender body. Although the style was very similar to those of the stone giants, his appearance was very different. He had neither the stone giants' iconic gray skin nor a huge body.
"We are here to see the Patriarch!"
Upon seeing the beautiful woman appear, Peyton and the other stone giants immediately knelt down and saluted. Their level of respect was no less than that of the half-Titans just now.
"That's actually the chief of the stone giants?!"
Seeing this scene, Loris opened his lion eyes wide, and his lion face was full of disbelief.
"Rainforest Chief, who are you asking? Your Rainforest Fortress Alliance is the force closest to the Stone Giant."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Sina was surprised and looked at Loris helplessly.
“It’s really a bit surprising.”
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, remembering the information about the stone giant that Loris had provided before.
According to Loris's understanding, the stone giant chieftain has rarely appeared in the past few hundred years, so much so that Loris has never seen her. But judging from the information left by the previous rainforest leader, she should be a female giant with a rough face. How could she suddenly become a human?
"Haha, it seems that my appearance is a bit abrupt."
The beautiful woman half-lying on the giant throne, first raised her hand to signal the stone giants to stand up, and then said lazily, "Why, are you so surprised?"
"You are a bunch of unsophisticated fellows. This is our great Stone Giant leader, Lady Lila!"
Peyton coughed lightly and quickly introduced: "It will be the honor of your life to meet the great patriarch!"
"Your Majesty, the chief of the stone giants is indeed called Lila, but the size difference is too big."
Loris ignored the other party and whispered to Lei Xiao.
After Loris finished speaking, the rest of our group was unable to react for a moment, and all looked puzzled.
"Since they can both match up, there is only one possibility left."
Lei Xiao looked at the lazy appearance of the stone giant female chieftain and said thoughtfully: "It seems that the other party must have hidden his true face."
"Hiding your true identity?"
Xina was stunned at first, but then she quickly reacted and said, "Your Majesty, do you mean that the other party used a shapeshifting potion?"
“This is the only possibility.”
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, then collected his thoughts and responded to Payton: "It's the honor of a lifetime? Are you saying this to the half-titan? Or to us?"
"this……"
Payton, knowing that he had caused trouble in the battle with Lux just now, was speechless for a moment, and just glared at Lei Xiao, the culprit.
"What a sharp tongue you have. I have already said that the alliance between the stone giants and the half-titans is not so fragile."
Lila supported her fair chin with one hand, looked at Lei Xiao and said, "Human Emperor, you should think about yourself. Perhaps you will soon fall in front of me."
As soon as Lila finished her words, another slender and tall unknown figure appeared and stood beside the former.
Compared with the former, this newly appeared figure also had the appearance of a young human woman, but she looked much more gentle and was wearing a purple robe. She was obviously a different type from the former.
"Meet the Great Elder!"
Upon seeing this, Payton, the second elder, and the other stone giants saluted with their chests and spoke in unison.
"Your Majesty, it looks like the new guy is the Stone Giant's Great Elder Keira."
Loris stepped forward and whispered to Lei Xiao, "Lila and Keira are sisters. They are both descendants of the former Stone Giant leader. Their whereabouts are also extremely mysterious. Although Keira appears harmless on the surface, she is said to be the most violent of the Stone Giants. Although her appearance is still different from what the intelligence reports."
Before Loris finished speaking, an extremely violent energy fluctuation surged from the two opponents, and its fierceness was obviously more powerful than that of Payton and Lux.
For a moment, together with Hollis II and Bruce, the momentum of the other six top powerhouses swept across the world, and the constantly stirred up strong winds rushed towards them, making it difficult for even Broy and other fifth-level dwarf elves to gain a foothold.
"Now that all the top semi-titans and stone giants have shown up, it looks like His Majesty the Human is about to be in trouble."
Seeing all the familiar old faces appear, Manager I looked at Lei Xiao with a bit more regret in his eyes.
You know, the strength and background of Hollis II and Lila are by no means comparable to that of ordinary half-step seventh-level powerhouses like Payton, not to mention that they have an overwhelming advantage in numbers?
If this young human emperor had not encountered second-rate forces like the demi-titans and stone giants, he might have been able to make a name for himself in time. But now it seems that he is in big trouble.
"Really? Then why not see who falls first?"
Lei Xiao didn't care about the regretful look from Manager I at all, and stood in the center of the banquet hall again. (End of this chapter)
