Chapter 1653 The Other Side of the Battlefield
Chapter 1653 The Other Side of the Battlefield
In the underground space that still exuded a foul odor, after hearing Lei Xiao's words, everyone focused their minds and began to search again for the location where the energy resonance occurred.
This time, without the obstruction of those strange dark substances, the group quickly found a secret room full of ancient magic circles under the platform.
I saw that the outer wall of the secret room was covered with places similar to air vents, and even foul-smelling mucus was constantly flowing out of them.
"These are obviously left by the dark matter just now."
After checking it out, Zhen frowned and said to Lei Xiao, "Your Majesty, it seems that the dark matter that breeds "eclipse" draws energy from here."
"The ancient magic array here is profound and mysterious. It is obviously the product of this God-favored land itself. I didn't expect that those possessed beings would use this God-favored land as a breeding ground for the evil spirits of "Erosion". "
Rorik also had a frown on his face, looking solemn.
It must be said that the scene just now was beyond the imagination of these powerful elves, and it was also a very important discovery. If they could leave here alive, they must inform the senior leaders of the tribe as soon as possible.
Thinking of this in their hearts, whether it was the light elves such as Rorik, or the dark elves such as Zhen, they all looked at each other involuntarily.
Compared with those ferocious and brutal parasites and these terrifying "eclipses", the other party doesn't seem so unpleasant.
"It seems that the catastrophe is imminent. No one knows what terrible actions the "Guixu people" will take, but what is certain is that this will be a complete catastrophe."
Lei Xiao saw what the powerful elves were thinking and said something intentionally or unintentionally.
The reason why Lei Xiao said this was to further remind all the powerful elves that in the face of the "Eclipse" that attempted to destroy everything, there would be a glimmer of hope only if all races worked together.
In comparison, although the conflict between the dark elves and the light elves has been protracted, it seems insignificant. After all, this is the common enemy of all races and the ultimate trial that has been brewing for three thousand years.
Although Rorik, Zhen and others are not decision-makers in their respective tribes, they can still have a say. With their full support, the future will be smoother.
"Your Majesty is right. Perhaps from the very beginning, we underestimated these 'Erosions'."
Elves such as Rorik and Zhen couldn't help nodding in agreement, and there was a bit more respect in their eyes when they looked at Lei Xiao.
This is not only because Lei Xiao spoke to the heart of their hearts, but also because the former mentioned a key word, that is, "Guixu people".
You know, "Guixuzhe" is something that only the high-level members of their respective clans know. Even they have only heard of it a few times occasionally, and they are not even very clear about the specific meaning.
As for the Human King, he looked as if he knew the mystery. He was exactly like their high and mighty king, unfathomable and yet seemed to know everything.
Having said that, most of the "Eclipse" and the parasites are rampant in the territory of first-rate forces, and second-rate forces are extremely rare. How can His Majesty, as a king who came from the territory of the human race, know so much about the "Eclipse"? It is simply unbelievable!
As they thought of this in their hearts, Lei Xiao became even more mysterious in the eyes of the other powerful elves.
From the encounter with those parasites to leading everyone to wipe out this breeding ground of "Eclipse", the calm and composed appearance of His Majesty the Human on the battlefield was something they would never forget.
This attitude of seeming to see through everything is a kind of calmness that is only displayed after going through life-and-death duels with "Eclipse" and its parasites.
"Everyone, now we can almost confirm that this is the source of the barrier that blocks the outside world. It seems that we have found the right place this time."
After investigating for a while, Lei Xiao, Anna, Fei'er and others showed joy on their faces.
In this case, the next thing is very simple.
Lei Xiao just waved his hand, and streaks of lightning shot out and accurately hit the magic crystals floating above the magic circle.
The next second, these magic crystals trembled for a moment and then shattered. The originally shining magic array instantly dimmed.
Although these magic crystals that maintain the operation of the magic circle are very valuable, the situation is urgent, so Lei Xiao naturally can't care so much.
Furthermore, for Lei Xiao, who has an increasingly strong foundation, these high-quality magic crystals are not rare items.
After all, from the appearance of the magic crystals, it can be seen that these are not the original magic crystals from the Land of God's Blessing, but should have been repaired by the Market Brotherhood later.
"Your Majesty, the scout captain on guard outside has sent a message that the barrier has disappeared!"
Zhen first placed her slender hand under her slender ear and listened for a moment, then said excitedly, "As expected of His Majesty the Human Race. We have finally met up with the guests on the other side. Everything is within His Majesty's expectations!"
After hearing Zhen's words, the other strong men also became excited.
"Without further delay, let's set off immediately!"
Lei Xiao nodded to everyone, then flew out and rushed straight in the direction he came from. The powerful men followed closely behind him.
Just as Lei Xiao and his group were taking action, a completely different scene occurred at the other end of the barrier.
"Jasmine, are you okay?"
In a nondescript corner of an alley, Helena was carefully sensing any movement around her while looking at a petite figure beside her with concern.
I saw her chest heaving up and down, and her drooping hair was wet with sweat and gathered together. She looked quite disheveled, and it was obvious that she had just experienced a fierce battle not long ago.
"I'm fine. It's not that easy for those parasites to hurt me!"
Jasmine patted her chest, looking as if nothing was wrong.
However, her energy barrier was extremely weak, and her pink hood was covered with some charred marks, which made her look even more miserable than Helena.
The situation was similar to that encountered by Lei Xiao and others. At the beginning, a team of market guards disguised as parasites appeared in front of Jasmine and other powerful forest elves.
Originally, Jasmine was still immersed in the joy of reuniting with Helena. She chattered all the way and didn't notice anything unusual at all.
Although Helena and other powerful forest elves realized that something was wrong, they finally chose to wait and see. After all, this was the Shadow Market, and the powerful elves didn't think that there would be any real abnormalities.
But it didn't take long before Jasmine, who had been unaware, suddenly stopped and frowned.
Because she finally noticed something unusual. That was that the market guards who led the way walked unsteadily, and their steps were a little uncoordinated, which suddenly reminded her of the army of parasites she saw in Watch City!
Although this girl is a bit careless, she is not stupid and she quickly realized that there might be something wrong with this team of market guards. So she did the same thing as Lei Xiao and took out a communication magic stone of the Shadow Market.
Originally, Lei Xiao gave this communication magic stone to Jasmine so that she could contact Ice Stone City in an emergency. After all, this girl was not a subordinate yet and could not be contacted through telepathy.
Perhaps because she has always been by Lei Xiao's side, this girl even speaks in the same way as Lei Xiao. She pretends to be very silly and naive, and asks the fake guard captain to help identify the source of the communication magic stone.
Originally, the girl thought that the other party was about to show his true colors, and even pulled Helena and others to take action.
What the girl didn't expect was that the other party actually said accurately that this was a magic communication stone from the Shadow Market, and even questioned where the girl got it from.
This sudden scene left Jasmine speechless for a long time.
In fact, the reason why the other party knew all this was because Lei Xiao had already asked once.
Because of the link of "Guixuzhe", after one group of parasites revealed their true colors, other parasites would naturally get the corresponding information and would not make the same mistake again.
And Lei Xiao obviously asked a little earlier than Jasmine, so it was not surprising that this situation occurred.
After seeing this scene, the accompanying Silver Maple Garden Forest Ranger and Mirror Lake Singer both looked at Jasmine as if she were an idiot, thinking that she was just showing off her communication magic stone.
Fortunately, Jasmine thought quickly and asked again about the method of activating the communication magic stone. As a result, the fake guard captain was speechless this time.
The fake guard captain had only let him know that this was the communication magic stone. Although he had reached the second step based on the former's experience and had perfectly answered the first question, he naturally did not understand the specific operation method and was speechless for a moment.
Seeing this, not only Helena and other powerful forest elves in the Ancient Tree Courtyard, but also other forest elves such as Silver Maple Forest Ranger and Mirror Lake Singer frowned.
Many of them were also familiar with the Communication Magic Stone. They had seen ordinary market guards operate it by chance. However, these market guards worked in the markets directly under the Market Brotherhood. How could they not know the specific operation methods?
As a result, coupled with the various abnormalities that had occurred before, not only the powerful forest elves present, but also some other independent powerful warriors, and even the powerful warriors under Lei Xiao's command, realized that something was wrong and became subconsciously alert.
During this, Helena even stepped forward and asked the fake market guard captain to give an explanation.
Seeing that he could no longer pretend, the fake market guard captain decided to take the initiative and suddenly attacked the elves.
Thanks to Jasmine's reminder, the forest elves in the front row were all prepared and not caught off guard, so they engaged in a fierce battle with the other side.
Not long into the fight, everyone discovered that the other side was actually a parasite that was immune to all attacks, and that a large number of parasite ambushes were surrounding them from all directions.
Feeling that the opponent's momentum was even stronger than their own, the powerful elves decisively chose to break out separately and did not intend to fight the opponent head-on.
Because although the powerful men from the five major forest elf kingdoms present all carried one or two [God's Stone], they did not have the Chosen Son of God and could not share the power to fight against the possessed. With just a few [God's Stone] holders and the stone elves, they were obviously no match for so many possessed people.
Seeing this, those individual strong men and the strong men under Lei Xiao also joined the breakout team and scattered following the strong elves who were leading the charge.
Everyone has only one goal, which is to join forces with other guests to increase their strength against their opponents.
During this process, Jasmine tried her best to teleport all the strong men under Lei Xiao to the team in the ancient tree courtyard, and break out with Helena.
At the beginning, the breakout was quite smooth, but it didn't take long before everyone discovered the existence of the blocking barrier, and then they realized that they had been teleported into a carefully designed cage from the beginning.
In astonishment, Jasmine, Helena and other powerful elves from the Ancient Tree Courtyard and a group of powerful men under Lei Xiao were surrounded by the chasing parasites and had to engage in a fierce battle.
As a younger generation holder of the [God's Stone] in the Ancient Tree Courtyard, Helena's performance was extremely impressive. She soon teamed up with her stone elves to defeat the two possessed demigods and even severely damaged them.
The other strong men also tried their best to restrain the opponents, which made our side gain the upper hand for a time. In particular, the strong men under Lei Xiao took out their magic stone weapons one after another, causing considerable losses to those opponents who thought they were invincible.
However, the enemy's reinforcements arrived quickly, making the overall combat power far beyond the limit that Jasmine and others could contend with.
It was during this process that Jasmine and Helena both suffered some injuries, and the strong men under Lei Xiao and the other strong elves in the ancient tree courtyard were also defeated by the other side, until Jasmine and Helena fled to this alley for temporary shelter, which led to the scene just now.
"Don't be so stubborn, girl. Let me see if you are injured anywhere."
Helena inquired with a look of great concern.
"Don't worry, I just took a high-quality healing potion!"
Jasmine chuckled and asked again, "How is it? Sister Helena, the healing potion I just gave you is of good quality, right?"
"It's even better than the best quality I have. Jasmine, this potion is extremely expensive. How did you get it?"
Helena frowned and asked Jasmine, "Also, you were able to cause substantial damage to the parasite just now. How did you do it?"
"Hey, that's naturally because of that guy."
Jasmine raised her eyebrows slightly and responded to Helena.
"Are you talking about the human emperor?"
Hearing this, Helena's fair face couldn't help but show a hint of doubt. (End of this chapter)
