The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.
Chapter 575 Got stabbed
Perhaps the shock brought by Elvy was too great. Seeing that Elvy was so determined, these people did not continue to bargain.
They retreated a distance and hid aside to discuss and decide who would go in and who would stay.
The rules set by Elvy were very strict, leaving no room for wiggle room. Even if the number could not be divided into one third, one more would be discarded instead of putting one more in.
Elvy led this one-third of the underground nobles, passed through the defense line of Roland and others, and walked into Xu Lai's tent.
The outside was handed over to Roland and Jian Yuan, who were responsible for continuing the defense, while Jilong was called into the tent by Xu Lai.
Ji Long was Xu Lai's adjutant, combining multiple roles including secretary, assistant, and staff officer.
Xu Lai originally reserved this position for Yu Lan. After all, being a secretary is a pretty good job.
Unfortunately, Mingyue City now really cannot do without Yu Lan.
Although Yu Lan is not a general, perhaps because he is a mage, he has many ideas and dares to make them.
In this regard, even Su Ya is not as good as her.
Even without Yu Lan, Jilong is still pretty good, smart and clever.
Unlike Naru, Roland and others, although they are reliable in doing things, it is mostly unreliable to expect to discuss something with them.
Xu Lai’s central military tent was the most luxurious. Normally, he could hold a small meeting with 5 or 6 people and it would not be too crowded at all.
But it’s not possible today. These underground nobles are of different heights, weights and shapes, and the key is that there are too many of them.
It seemed a little too disrespectful and indecent for so many people to gather together and discuss matters concerning the final fate of the entire underground camp.
Anyway, there was no one nearby that Xu Lai needed to be on guard against, and Xu Lai could completely trust Roland Jian Yuan and the others.
As for those brought by these underground nobles, since they can appear here, they must be trustworthy.
Therefore, Xu Lai simply asked Elvy to roll up the big tent and everyone sat on the ground.
"Dear Mr. Xu Lai, please allow me to introduce you first."
Xu Lai took a rough look and found that everything in front of him was strange in shape and shape, and almost none of them looked pleasing to the eye.
It's either a big bull's head, a big head with big eyes, or something without any eyes at all.
There are finally a few who look like humans, with normal organs and facial features, but you must never look at the lower body, otherwise it looks like the body of a bird or a snake.
The sorcerer who was speaking had a relatively normal body, and his facial features were similar to those of a human. However, all these things were squeezed on a small shelf, and there was no other adjective to describe him except ugly.
Facing these monsters and demons, Xu Lai sighed helplessly in his heart.
"Before that, I would like to ask you a question."
The leading sorcerer tried to learn human etiquette, but ended up learning it in a weird way, which was even more terrifying than not showing courtesy at all.
Xu Lai waved his hand helplessly and said, "Let's skip all these formalities and just talk it out."
The sorcerer was not embarrassed at all, he withdrew his hand and said, "Please ask."
Xu Lai nodded and said, “I want to confirm whether you can decide the fate of the dungeon camp.
I am a person who fears trouble, and I cannot stand a second time such a big event as today's.
Therefore, before you speak, it is better to confirm with each other, so as to avoid that after talking for a long time, you will be unable to make a decision.
If you can't make the decision, take this opportunity to replace someone who can.
Otherwise, if you tell me at the end of the discussion, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Xu Lai doesn't have much time to waste here. If he can't settle the negotiations today, he will set a few more fires in the City That Never Sleeps. After the city is burned to a barren land, he will use the time and space gate to return.
He would have to wait until he went back and erected the golden statue of the God of War and the New Year was over before he could come back and give these underground nobles a good beating.
Xu Lai spoke in a bad tone, but these underground nobles didn't care much.
The dungeon is a particularly vivid world where force determines everything.
The law of survival of the fittest is vividly demonstrated here.
Xu Lai is the strongest now, so they think it's just luck that he is willing to sit down and negotiate with them, and their bad tone is not even a problem.
“That’s exactly what I want to introduce to you.
First of all, please allow me to introduce myself to you. My name is Jones, and I was the chief spell advisor to the underground queen Moril.
This is Gordon, the chieftain of the largest underground minotaur tribe.
Loria, Queen of the Harpies.
......"
Jones introduced them one by one. Just from their titles, one could tell that they were all powerful figures in the dungeon.
He is either the patriarch of a large tribe, the lord of the main city, or the chief magic consultant, the strongest hero, or something like that.
Chiefs of smaller tribes and owners of other small cities are not even qualified to enter this tent and can only wait outside.
Xu Lai was not too interested in the identities of these people. He just wanted to know that these people could indeed make the decisions.
Only one person, Xu Lai, was very surprised when he heard his name.
"What did you say his name was?"
Xu Lai pointed at a handsome man in the crowd who had a very good look.
This guy has blond hair, a hooked nose, and a handsome appearance, unless you look at his eagle-like lower body.
After Jones took a look, he quickly explained: "Respected Sir Xu Lai, his name is Bald Eagle, and he is the mayor of Black Hole City, one of the twelve major cities.
The Black Cave City is backed by three wild dragon nests. It is the main production base for Queen Moril to raise and recruit black dragons. It is also one of the most important cities in our dungeon. "
Upon hearing that Xu Lai was interested in the bald eagle, Jones quickly explained in detail.
While introducing him, he was still wondering in his heart, could it be that this powerful human lord, like Queen Muriel, was attracted to this guy?
I heard that Nannan and the like are very popular among the humans in the empire, so it's not impossible.
This bald eagle, like the goat and the brown bear, is Queen Muriel's male favorite, so naturally he looks good.
Jones was jealous of these pretty boys who were popular wherever they went, but he was also thinking about how to use this pretty boy to get more benefits from Xu Lai.
Unlike Jones, who was thinking a lot, the one who renamed himself Bald Eagle actually didn't want to come in at all, and didn't want to be noticed by Xu Lai.
However, he is the lord of the twelve main cities. If he does not come in, his position as lord may be lost.
You know, he had just seen Muriel, his only supporter, when her head was outside.
If it weren’t for Xu Lai, Reina and the Southern Empire troops entering the underground and dealing a huge blow to the underground camp.
I believe that once Moril is gone, he, the bald eagle, will be the target of the siege by these people, because he occupies the most important city in the underground camp. From this point of view, he should thank Xu Lai, but as a fellow advent hero, he does not think that Xu Lai's special question to him is out of good intentions.
Sure enough, Xu Lai replied: "I am not interested in him and his city.
I just want to know why he, a man, is a harpy. As far as I know, there are no men in the harpy tribe. "
Jones glanced at the Harpy Queen, but Loria looked up at the sky, not knowing what was so good about the dark dome.
As for the bald eagle, he himself had no intention of explaining. He lowered his head and stared at the ground.
This scene made Jones particularly speechless, but he couldn't ignore Xu Lai, so he had to explain for them himself:
"I don't know the details, but it may have something to do with the identity of the hero of the Bald Eagle's Advent."
Xu Lai narrowed his eyes and thought to himself that it was indeed so.
He himself is a hero, and a hero without any ambitions.
However, people like him were pushed to his current position because of this identity.
Even so, the Qingfeng City that Xu Lai now controls can only be regarded as an ordinary big city.
The city walls had not yet been completely built, and although the population was increasing, the speed was not fast due to the vastness of the grassland.
The people of Qingfeng City have no worries about food and clothing, and their ability to reproduce is quite good. The last time Xu Lai rewarded the entire city, he saw quite a few pregnant women.
It’s a pity that humans don’t enjoy the nourishment of magic and still have to be pregnant for ten months, with no possibility of acceleration.
In other words, it will take at least a dozen years for the population to grow naturally.
And this bald eagle owns one of the twelve main cities in the underground city, and it is the most important one.
Before, all the harvest from Black Hole City had to be handed over to Moriel.
But now that Muriel is dead, if Bald Eagle is allowed to live freely in Black Hole City, it will probably grow into another Muriel in just a few years.
At that time, this guy would inevitably embark on the path of unifying the dungeon, and Xu Lai, the king of the dungeon, would become his biggest enemy.
Xu Lai is not a cruel person. In fact, he is quite soft-hearted most of the time.
But Xu Lai was quite displeased with the name this guy gave him, and he didn't want to raise a tiger to cause trouble, so he said directly:
“Since he is not an indigenous person, he has no right to represent indigenous people.
Before our formal negotiations begin, you must either revoke his title as Lord of Black Hole City or leave here.
But I have to remind you that the opportunity to negotiate was won by you at the cost of countless dungeon lives.
If we give up this time, we don’t know how many people will die next time.”
Xu Lai originally just wanted to put pressure on these people, but the dungeon nobles present had already been extremely dissatisfied with the Bald Eagle group.
They relied on Moril's support and occupied the best resources in the dungeon even though they were obviously weak. They had aroused the jealousy of countless people.
Xu Lai's words were like the fuse that lit a powder keg.
As soon as he finished speaking, Gordon, the chief of the Tauren tribe, stood up instantly with his hands raised.
After raising his hands, Gordon suddenly remembered that he had discarded his weapon on the way here.
But at this moment, he didn't dare to take out the weapon from the space ring, otherwise the Seraphim behind him would chop him with a sword. He didn't think his head would be harder than Morrell's.
However, it doesn't matter if you don't have a weapon. The Bull King's fist, which is bigger than a sandbag, is not just for show.
But with such a delay, how could the bald eagle not notice such a big movement around it?
But even though he noticed it, there were people on both sides, and almost all of them clamped down on him at the same time, including the Queen of the Harpy who was supposed to be of the same race.
However, as a spellcaster, the power of the harpy queen Loria could not compare to that of the bald eagle, and he easily broke free.
With a bang, the fist as big as a sandbag hit directly on the shield that the bald eagle had just taken out.
The bald eagle's own strength growth is relatively low, but with Moril, various potions and equipment are not bad, and they are all strength-oriented.
But it is still far from comparable to the Bull-Headed King, who is known for his strength.
Even though he temporarily took out a shield from the space backpack, he was still blown away by the punch.
Elvy's eyes focused, and she held the giant sword in her hand, but she didn't know for a moment whether to kill the Minotaur King who attacked first, or to kill the bald eagle designated by Xu Lai.
Not to mention Elvy, even Xu Lai was stunned for a moment.
He was afraid that these dungeon people would unite against a common enemy, so he only said to deprive him of his position as the lord of Black Hole City, but did not say to kill this guy.
However, he did not expect that these people in the dungeon had no friendship at all and actually killed Xu Lai in front of him.
Come to think of it, this isn't too surprising.
After all, although these people are in the same camp, they each belong to a different race.
They just huddle together for warmth. They are not even from the same clan or family, so what kind of feelings can they have?
Now, with Xu Lai's words as an excuse, the resentment and jealousy that had been accumulating in his heart for a long time naturally burst out at this time.
However, the bald eagle is not stupid. He knows that if he relies on himself alone, there is a high probability that he will not be able to get out alive today.
He left the guards outside, and with Xu Lai's soldiers blocking the way, they would not be able to rush in.
Even if he could rush in, he would not be a match for these people, and he couldn't bring too many guards with him.
Therefore, if you want to survive, you can only save yourself.
How to save yourself?
There is only one person in front of him who can let him leave alive.
The bald eagle did not take out his weapon immediately, but took out a shield from his space backpack. He had made up his mind long ago.
While he was still in mid-air, he used his space backpack to replace the shield with his own server, a short knife with a blade of 3 to 40 centimeters long.
He knew that Xu Lai had the courage to face so many people with only two guards, so he must be very confident in his own protection.
So, he did not use a long weapon, but a short knife specially designed for stabbing.
The dagger is extremely sharp. The Angel Alliance suit Xu Lai is wearing is a divine weapon suit. Coupled with the enhanced armor, even divine weapons cannot easily penetrate the defense.
However, this short knife could easily penetrate the armor, even ignoring Xu Lai's own physical defense, and directly pierce into Xu Lai's flesh.
The sharp blade, which was more than 30 centimeters long, penetrated almost all of it, except for a few centimeters blocked by the breastplate.
Xu Lai was too confident, otherwise with his intuition from a long time in the battlefield, he would not have been stabbed so easily.
“Don’t move, this knife of mine is disposable, if I turn it slightly it will explode inside you.
If you don't want to die, let your people kill them all!" (End of this chapter)
