PFC Chapter 1522 Mysterious Emblem
Chapter 1522 Mysterious Emblem
"By the way, how did you know there were so many hidden combat forces here?"
In front of the neatly arranged array of alchemical puppets, Jasmine blinked her starry eyes and asked Broy curiously again.
"The mountain man has his own clever plan."
Broy did not reply to Jasmine immediately, but looked at Lei Xiao, asking implicitly whether he could speak.
The dwarf elf king clearly understood that although Jasmine had made great contributions and had a close relationship with Jiang Xi, she was not Lei Xiao's direct subordinate after all, so he still kept the appropriate distance in his heart.
Noticing Broy's inquiry, Lei Xiao simply nodded slightly, indicating that the former could respond to Jasmine's question.
Lei Xiao was also very clear about Broy's caution.
Standing behind Jasmine was the forest elves, the pinnacle of all races, whom she could never rival. Their background was unfathomable.
Even if Jasmine herself has no hostility towards us, this guy is careless after all. If she accidentally reveals some of our things and is used by someone of the same clan with ulterior motives, we will be in a very passive position.
Therefore, I usually pay great attention to this, including my own talents and lord technology and many other matters.
"In any case, even though this is just a hypothesis, I will never take this risk as I am responsible for the lives of all my people."
"In the Outer Realm, where the strong are respected, if there is even a slight negligence, it is very likely that a catastrophe will occur. Such examples are not uncommon since the Blank Era."
"However, this matter is harmless. Even if these alchemical puppets multiply several times, the forest elves will not look down on them, so there is naturally no need to hide them."
"Also, if there is a chance to subdue Jasmine, that would be great. If the time is not right, I will try my best to keep this girl by my side, even if it means I have to wear a hundred pink hoods."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, Broy cleared his throat and began to describe.
"Hehe, since the Lord and Lady Jasmine are both extremely curious, I will tell you the reason for this matter. It is the information I got from other dwarf elves in the fortress next to Guanwang City!"
Broy patted his chest and responded proudly, "According to the dwarfs, after the blank era ended, when the humans and the dwarves woke up from Watching City, they accidentally discovered this dwarf warehouse in the city and gained a lot of combat power."
"With this as a premise, and apart from the fact that it has become a ruin, the Overlook City is exactly the same as this place, so I wondered if there was a similar dwarf warehouse here, so I carefully inquired about the location of the warehouse and how to open it. I didn't expect to find it in the end!"
After listening to Broy's description, Jasmine opened her eyes wide and said in amazement, "Using the information obtained from that land to open the warehouse on this land? Is there really a parallel world over there? It's really unbelievable."
"No wonder you kept going to the underground fortress these past few days. It seems you got some rewards."
Lei Xiao patted Broy's shoulder with a smile and nodded with satisfaction.
After saying that, a hint of hesitation emerged on Lei Xiao's face.
Jasmine was right. Since Broy could do such a thing, the only explanation was a parallel world.
In Old Booker's world, Watch City was not destroyed, and even the Silver Fire Kingdom still led the human race to stand at the top of all races. But in his own world, Watch City and the Silver Fire Kingdom no longer existed, which also confirmed his previous conjecture about parallel worlds.
Not only that, during the previous communication with Old Booker, I also took a detailed look at the plate topography there, and it was indeed exactly the same as here.
"But the question is, after all, Booker's case is just an isolated case. How do I explain the other completely different sectors that I know about?"
While Lei Xiao was thinking, Broy had already begun to activate the long-sleeping alchemical puppets with Lei Xiao's permission.
In a short while, Broy had complete control over the command of all the alchemical puppets.
During this process, Lei Xiao further noticed.
These alchemical puppets are the same as those in the dwarf warehouse before. They are all equipped with various modules and are far more intelligent than ordinary alchemical puppets.
Seeing that everything was going smoothly, just when Lei Xiao was about to continue thinking about the doubts in his mind, a rapid voice prompt suddenly sounded.
After the call was connected, Nan Xing's surprised voice came over immediately: "Lord, please come to the bell tower area in the northwest of the ruins and take a look!"
"almost there."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and took Jasmine and Broy away from the dwarf warehouse temporarily.
Having lived in Guanwang City for so many days, Lei Xiao naturally knew the location described by Nanxing.
It didn't take long before Lei Xiao appeared at the corresponding location.
In front of the group was the ruins of a bell tower that had long collapsed, surrounded by mottled broken walls and ruins.
Near the uneven low broken walls and ruins, Nanxing, Nanyue and others immediately came forward.
"My Lord, I have just discovered some extremely unusual traces!"
The twin sisters touched their chests and saluted, speaking in unison.
"Take me to see it."
Lei Xiao nodded at the two of them and took his first step forward.
Under the guidance of the twin sisters, Lei Xiao soon came to a sunken area.
I saw a lot of broken bricks and gravel scattered in a pothole about half a meter deep in front of me, and in the center of the pothole, there were extremely strange signs of corrosion.
The gravel and sand there have all melted, and it looks like it has been soaked in water, but there is no sign of moisture at all.
Moreover, there are not just one such pits with traces of corrosion, but they are spread all over the area, numbering hundreds, scattered throughout the mottled ruins.
"Is this the trace left after the Eclipse was erased?"
Jasmine squatted down and checked for a moment, then blurted out.
After observing for a while, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
Jasmine was right. After being destroyed, the "Erosion" would turn into a pool of foul-smelling pus, which was quite corrosive. However, the pus would evaporate quickly and eventually disappear completely, leaving only a similar pit.
After experiencing a series of fierce battles in Guanwang City, the group became very familiar with these traces.
"There are even obvious traces of magic left on it. These "eclipses" were obviously erased not long ago."
Jasmine stood up, patted Nanxing and Nanyue on the shoulder in a serious manner and said, "Sisters, you did a good job. Now we can go back to sleep!"
"But we didn't do this. These traces already existed when we arrived."
Nan Xing shook his head and looked at Lei Xiao again and said, "My Lord, I have just asked other comrades around, and they have not fought with Eclipse here either."
"Since it wasn't you, nor was it anyone else, I have always been with the human boy, and I have never been to this area, then who killed this small group of "Eclipse"? "
Jasmine opened her starry eyes wide, and said with a puzzled look on her face: "Based on the remaining traces of magic power, the time it took for these "erosions" to be erased would never exceed half an hour!"
After saying that, Jasmine's eyes lit up and she blurted out, "I know. Was there a mistake when the space overlapped, and the old city lord was also teleported here? Or was it that the land there was partially replaced with the land here?"
"It's unlikely. Don't forget that it was the gods who teleported us back. Moreover, if the land was overlapping, how do we explain the broken walls and ruins on the ground? The ancient ruins in this area obviously do not belong to Guanwang City, and there are no traces left by the soldiers of Guanwang City. It is impossible that they selectively overlapped the potholes and these traces from there, right?
Lei Xiao hesitated for a moment and rejected Jasmine's opinion.
There is no doubt that it can create a huge number of [God's Stones] and "Gates of Truth" in an instant, and even send a billion lords here, and even change the speed of time. Its omnipotence is beyond doubt.
"That makes sense. There is indeed no sign of spatial overlap here. So what is going on? There can't be someone else here, right?"
Jasmine tilted her head, a puzzled look on her face.
"We can't rule out this possibility. Be alert and search the surrounding area carefully. Maybe we can find other clues."
To be on the safe side, Lei Xiao first ordered the scattered strong men to regroup, and then gave the order.
Sure enough, after searching for a while, the group soon found a mysterious emblem that had been engraved not long ago on a stone slab near the bumpy area.
The emblem depicts a giant eyeball covered with roots, which is undoubtedly the "Eclipse". Above the "Eclipse" pattern is a large cross, as if the "Eclipse" is torn into pieces.
Judging from the traces of magic that still remain, this emblem was obviously engraved here not long ago. It is spotless and could not possibly be a relic from ancient times.
"I seem to have seen this pattern somewhere."
Jasmine came closer, stretched her head and observed it from left to right for a long time, her eyes lit up and she said, "I know, this is the sign of the Eclipse Killer!"
"The one who destroys the Eclipse?"
After hearing this new term, Lei Xiao first ordered all the warriors to be on guard around them, and then asked, "What is an Eclipse Destroyer?"
"Hehe, this is a mysterious organization that only our first-class forces standing at the top of all races know about."
Jasmine put her hands on her hips, raised her chin and introduced to Lei Xiao: "Remember what I said before, we forest elves have fought against the Eclipse many times? At the very beginning, we discovered the existence of the destroyer of the Eclipse. "
"According to what I heard from those old guys... no, according to what I read in the history books of the elves, the Eclipse Killers, as the name suggests, are a secret society dedicated to eradicating Eclipse."
Jasmine shook her head like a teacher and continued, "According to the records in the elves' history books, the other party has fought fiercely with the "Eclipse" in our territory many times without our permission, and wiped out a large number of "Eclipse". "
"Another mysterious organization?"
The Black Abyss Brotherhood immediately emerged in Lei Xiao's mind, and he couldn't help but curl his lips slightly, obviously recalling a series of unpleasant memories.
Then, Lei Xiao's frown relaxed and he raised his eyebrows again and said, "Fortunately, this time this mysterious organization has the same goal as ours, so in a sense, they can be considered friendly forces."
"What friendly forces? Human boy, did you listen to me carefully?"
Jasmine scratched her hair, looking like she was about to go crazy, and reminded him word by word: "I just said it clearly, the other party broke into the territory of our forest elves without our permission, and then wiped out the "Eclipse"! Without our permission! This is simply challenging the authority of the forest elves!"
"Since we have the same goal and can help us eliminate potential crises and prevent surrounding towns from being implicated, we are not enemies, right? Why are you so hostile to each other?"
Looking at Jasmine's crazy look, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly.
"That's your idea. We forest elves don't need any external help. We can easily wipe out the "Erosion" that suddenly appeared!"
Jasmine raised her little face again and continued, "Besides, do you think those who destroy the Eclipse are good people? They will do anything to eliminate the Eclipse!"
"According to my understanding, since the blank era, the enemy has attacked our strong men many times. In order to block the eruption of the magic veins, they even destroyed several of our villages!"
Jasmine became angrier and angrier as she spoke. She angrily said, "You guys are lucky to be in this deserted underground ruins this time. If it were in an area full of towns, who knows what kind of trouble they would cause!"
After hearing what Jasmine said, everyone present couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.
If the other party is really so unscrupulous, it will indeed be a big trouble.
"But since the blank era, there has never been any record of human history being affected by the destruction of the Eclipse."
Gray Elder gently stroked his chin, looking puzzled as he said, "To be more precise, the human race has never had any records of destroying the Eclipse."
After Gray Old Man finished speaking, Broy, Chris, Fanny and other clan leaders also nodded, obviously they had never heard of these matters.
"That's why I said that this is something that only first-rate forces know. As for why the other party hasn't shown up in other places, or why he showed up but wasn't discovered, I don't know the specific situation."
Jasmine shrugged and responded, "Anyway, as far as I know, not only us forest elves, but most other first-rate forces also know the existence of the Eclipse Destroyer, and almost all of them have had fierce battles with him. Of course, us forest elves have never treated him well."
"If that's the case, then what is the true identity of the Eclipse Destroyer?"
Upon hearing that this mysterious organization could actually engage in fierce battles with the first-rate force standing at the top of all races, and that there were more than one of them, Lei Xiao's face became even more curious, and he asked.
"Well..."
Jasmine couldn't help but hesitate when she heard this. (End of this chapter)
