#1543 - The Lord's Question

In the magnificent banquet hall, after hearing Lei Xiao's words, Hollis II and Lila couldn't help but look at each other, and both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

Although the young human emperor in front of him spoke extremely humbly and even used the word "honor", there was an unquestionable sense of dignity in his calm smile.

This is no wonder. He is the master here now. Who would choose to disobey his words?

Feeling helpless, the two clan leaders looked at Administrator I again, trying to get some support from the latter.

After all, this is the Shadow Market. If the manager gives the order, the human emperor will naturally not be too unscrupulous.

However, Manager I's next words completely shattered the last glimmer of hope for the two.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, since the Human King intends to have a detailed discussion with you two, it means that things must have taken a turn for the better. This is your last chance!"

After Administrator I finished speaking, he rubbed his gauntlets and came to Lei Xiao's side, grinning and saying, "Your Majesty, I am right, right?"

From the moment Lei Xiao displayed the massive amount of magic scrolls, this manager had already fallen at his feet.

Having served as the guardian of trade in this area for hundreds of years, he naturally had a thorough understanding of the stone giants and the half-titans, and could roughly estimate the background of both. After all, neither of them was a very cunning force.

The strength demonstrated by Lei Xiao undoubtedly far exceeds that of these two veteran second-rate forces!

In addition to seeing a large number of sixth-level scrolls just now, the manager was so shocked that he even recognized a lot of sixth-level equipment on our strong men, even if they were deliberately concealed.

In fact, he had already noticed this before, but at that time he didn't believe that we could have a large number of sixth-level equipment. After all, that was the national treasure of the second-rate forces!

In short, Manager I clearly understood that if he could make friends with the human emperor, the benefits he would gain would undoubtedly be far greater than those of the half-titans and stone giants!

Under this premise, it is not surprising that the manager chose to stand on Lei Xiao's side based on the current situation.

"Your Excellency the Administrator is right. It seems that we will have many opportunities to cooperate in the future."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and nodded.

Lei Xiao naturally knew what Manager I was thinking.

The reason why I showed those magic scrolls just now was not only to intimidate the half-titans and stone giants, but also to show them to the managers.

"I understand. The stone giant is willing to have a detailed discussion with His Majesty the Human."

After thinking about it for a while, Lila quickly compromised and agreed to Lei Xiao's proposal.

"Same goes for the half-titans."

Seeing Lila slide to her knees at lightning speed, Hollis II immediately echoed her.

"Very good, then please ask the administrator to prepare the room."

Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "I want to chat with both of you one by one."

The reason why Lei Xiao chose this kind of one-on-one chat was to better complete his plan to conquer the enemy.

It is not difficult to see from the situation just now that the half-titan and the stone giant, both of whom felt that they were in danger, seemed to be huddling together for warmth. If pressure continued to be exerted on both of them at the same time, the two would inevitably become more and more inseparable.

Therefore, defeating them one by one becomes the best option. As long as one of the parties is forced to surrender first, it will be easy to defeat the other weak party.

"Hehe, I'm ready. Please come over here, Your Majesty."

Manager I made a "please" gesture and began to lead the way.

"Then let's start with the Half-Titan King."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and then walked in front with Jasmine, Loris and other three leaders. As for Fei'er, she took the initiative to stay behind to restrain Lila and other stone giants.

Hollis II was at a loss as to whether he should follow. After all, Lei Xiao did not specify whether he could bring anyone with him. If he went alone, he would be too weak.

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment!"

Prince Bruce of Nothingness also discovered this very quickly. Although his breath was weak and there were even a few unhealed wounds on his exposed skin, he still quickly said, "Your Majesty will not let our king go alone, right?"

"That's right. We are the king's right-hand men, so we have to accompany him!"

Lux, who was also looking a little dusty, stepped forward and echoed.

"Then come along."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and did not reject either of their requests.

These two are the pillars of the Half-Titans. If you want to completely subdue the Half-Titans, these two will undoubtedly need to be tamed.

"I want to go too!"

Seeing that Lei Xiao had softened his stance, the other half-Titan generals also stood up and spoke in unison, obviously worried that Hollis II and his two companions were still outnumbered.

This time, Lei Xiao did not react at all. These semi-Titan warriors might have a high status in the tribe, but to him, they were not anything insignificant.

"Please don't bother with this, everyone. This is a conversation between kings."

Manager I reacted very quickly. Seeing that Lei Xiao did not react, he immediately stopped him and said, "With me here as a witness, what are you worried about?"

Seeing that the manager had completely stood on Lei Xiao's side, those semi-Titan warriors had no choice but to give up.

After everything was settled, the manager smiled at Lei Xiao again and asked, "Your Majesty, do you think this is okay?"

"Of course, Your Excellency the Administrator is the host."

Lei Xiao smiled back, acknowledging the manager's words.

Lei Xiao, who has close contact with our managers, clearly understands that the Miying Market has complete monitoring facilities. Even if he does not allow Manager I to be present, the other party will be able to know everything.

Therefore, it would be better to let the other party go along. While taming the half-titan as much as possible, he could also let Manager I pay more attention to his new financial backer, and of course, leaders such as Loris.

Finally, under the eager gazes of Lila, Keira, other stone giants and other half-Titans, the group quickly disappeared at the end of the banquet hall.

Soon, Lei Xiao, under the guidance of the manager, arrived at a huge and luxuriously decorated conference hall. Semi-Titans were all giants over five meters in height, and ordinary space would not be able to accommodate them.

In order to facilitate the actions of Lei Xiao and others, the manager had already prepared a set of suitable chairs and conference tables.

"Then let's get started."

Lei Xiao sat at the head of the conference table, looked at Hollis II who was sitting at the front, and said straight to the point: "You are not Hollis II, who are you?"

"What?!"

When Lei Xiao said this, everyone who had just sat down, including Manager I, opened their eyes wide, especially Loris, who had not yet sat firmly and almost fell to the ground.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

In the uproar in the conference hall, even Hollis II, Bruce and Lux ​​stared at Lei Xiao with their eyes wide open, looking at him in disbelief.

Looking at everyone's incredible expressions, Lei Xiao's face remained extremely calm.

The reason why I came to this conclusion was because of Hollis II's previous performance.

As an iron-blooded old king who had guided the stone giant for more than a thousand years and had been charging into battle all the time, he was obviously too weak. At least he would not kneel down in front of him and admit defeat at such a fast speed.

Then, there is only one conclusion left, that is, this half-Titan king is not the real Hollis II.

It was for this reason that he first called over Half-Titan, which was undoubtedly the best way to break through the opponent's psychological defenses.

"Your Majesty, this joke is a little too abrupt, isn't it?"

Prince Bruce of Nothingness acted as if he was extremely surprised and spoke first: "My king has always been my king. There is no doubt about that."

"You are right. Your Majesty is really a joker. If my king is not my king, then I and His Royal Highness the old prince will naturally be the first to know."

Mad Axe Prince Lux also immediately agreed, smiled awkwardly and said: "Let's talk about business."

"Of course you know that, without your help, how could he have concealed the truth?"

Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and continued to press forward.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

Administrator I also looked puzzled and could not help but say, "Although His Majesty Hollis II has had very limited direct contact with me, we have been in contact through the Communication Stone for hundreds of years and there has never been any sense of disobedience or mistakes."

"Yes, His Excellency the Administrator has confirmed our king's identity. Is there anything else that His Majesty the Human Race should question?"

Bruce's old face showed a trace of certainty, and he said without hesitation: "I can be sure that my king is my king!"

"Since you are so dishonest, then we have nothing to discuss."

Lei Xiao's face turned cold, and he said calmly: "Originally, I wanted to fully support the half-titan, which is why I called you here first. Now that things have come to this, I can only fully support the stone giant."

After that, Lei Xiao shrugged and added: "If I fully support the stone giant, there is no need for me to say more about what will happen in the end, right?"

"Ahem, that stone giant will surely become the orthodoxy of the Titans. As for you guys..."

Jasmine smacked her lips and raised her eyebrows slightly. Although she was not interested in these scenes, it was still interesting to follow Lei Xiao and act like a bully.

"Well……"

Bruce and Lux ​​were speechless upon hearing this, not knowing what to say for a moment.

After a moment, when Bruce tried to continue his explanation, Hollis II waved his hand to stop him.

"Uncle, the Human Emperor is right. We should be more honest."

The hoarse and old voice of Hollis II suddenly became much younger. He pulled off the gray beard on his face, and the wrinkles and scars on his face disappeared, revealing the face of a young half-Titan.

"It's actually a physical face-changing technique?! No wonder the detection array in the market didn't detect it."

Administrator I's voice was filled with surprise and disbelief. "But then again, apart from the age difference, you look exactly like Hollis II when he was young."

As the manager in charge of the half-titans and stone giants, Manager I naturally has a lot of information about both, including a magical portrait of the old king when he was young.

"Mr. Administrator, isn't it a bit disrespectful to call my king Your Excellency?"

Lux frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Although my king is young, I have just said that my king is my king!"

"Haha, disrespectful."

Although he said so, the manager did not really show much respect. With Lei Xiao as the new financial backer, he no longer valued Half-Titan as much as before.

After hearing the indifferent voice of the administrator, Lux and Bruce's dissatisfaction became stronger. Before they could speak, the young Half-Titan King spoke first: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, this is related to the life and death of the entire Half-Titan, so I have been hiding something from Your Majesty."

"So, you should be the descendant of Hollis II?"

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and asked.

According to the information provided by Sheena, Half-Titan does have a prince.

"Yes, my name is also Hollis. Your Majesty can call me Hollis III, or just Hollis."

After recovering his true appearance, the new half-Titan king's tone was obviously a little timid, but he still tried to remain calm and said, "Your Majesty must have guessed that I am not as strong and resolute as my father. I still have a long way to go before I can become a qualified king. That's why I borrowed my father's remaining power to intimidate the stone giants. Otherwise, once the stone giants know that my father has fallen, they will surely attack in large numbers. Then I, the half-Titan, will probably encounter a catastrophe."

"So that's how it is."

Lei Xiao recalled the other party's previous actions and nodded slightly.

That way, everything does make sense.

While he understood it in his heart, Lei Xiao's face once again showed a hint of doubt. (End of this chapter)
