Chapter 1477: Steps into the Depths of Darkness
"what?"
After hearing the words of the pink hooded man, Old Gary was surprised, but suddenly he understood and said, "Everything is clear now. No wonder the opponent went to great lengths to separate us, just to make us kill each other!"
Including Old Gary, everyone present understood clearly that according to the documents left over from before the Blank Age, whether it was the evil god or its minions, the demons, although they had different abilities, they all, without exception, mastered powerful mental spells, and were best at bewitching and controlling.
It was also because of this that all the races in the Sun Age had their minds corrupted by the other side, and they put down the olive branch and took up weapons, causing the entire earth to be devastated and filled with despair and fear. This was the source of the other side's power and the original appearance of the forbidden technique.
“Once our warriors swing their blades at each other and provide each other with enough forbidden power, the other side will soon activate the corrosive black fog that was just broken, or even more powerful forbidden magic. At that time, everything will be even more difficult to control!”
Youyou looked solemn and blurted out, "No, just the premise of letting our strong men fight each other is already an extremely bad situation. We must stop this as soon as possible."
"Indeed, we three are the only ones who possess the power to purify the other party's temptation!"
Xiaojie also crawled out of Lei Xiao's arms and looked at Youyou and Xiaojing with a serious expression.
As the [Stone of God] that is naturally able to restrain the power of evil gods, although the stone elves theoretically have the ability to purify the devil's temptation, compared with the sixth-order stone elves, the power of the fifth-order stone elves is too limited, and the opponent's strength is too strong.
Therefore, even though Lei Xiao has left fifth-level stone elves such as Xiao Zhao, Xiao Huan, and Da Zhuang in the team of strong men, they probably won't play a big role.
After hearing Youyou's words, Xiaojing and Xiaojie both nodded heavily, with anxious looks on their faces.
"That's right, everyone get ready, we'll set off right away."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and nodded to everyone.
"Human boy, but how should we act?"
The pink hooded man tilted his head and asked, "It took them at least several decades, or even hundreds of years, to create these two identical spaces in the city. They took all the necessary measures, like two completely sealed rooms that don't interfere with each other. Even I didn't notice anything, let alone go to another space."
“So, even if we have the power to purify the other party’s bewitching power, we can’t go back to where we were just now and wake up the bewitched strong men.”
At this point, the pink hooded man seemed to have thought of something and said in surprise, "Boy, you don't want to challenge the devil with just the three of us, three stones, and a skeleton, do you?"
"Not to challenge, but to defeat."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and responded: "Besides this, do we have any other way?"
"Your Majesty is right. This is our only way out."
Old Guy also stepped forward and echoed, "According to ancient documents, even demons cannot do two things at once. Therefore, if there is no other way to break the bewitching spell, as long as the other party focuses on us, the bewitching spell will naturally break itself!"
"By then, our strong men who have been freed from their restraints and have reacted will also attack the Skeleton Hall deep in the giant city."
Lei Xiao took over the conversation and added, "There can't be two skeleton halls deep in the giant city, right? In my opinion, that is the gate connecting the two spaces in the city. Since we can't go to another space, we can just go to the gate and meet our masters in another space."
"In short, if the opponent blocks the way forward, then we might as well create a new path!"
After hearing what Lei Xiao said, everyone else nodded in agreement, their morale high again, except for the man in the pink hood.
The man in the pink hood clearly understood that the demon's strength was at least twice as strong as his own, and it was easy for him to suppress him. Even if Lei Xiao and others were added to his side, the strength gap between him and the other side was still huge, not to mention the other lich guards.
Therefore, although Lei Xiao's plan sounds easy and seems feasible, its actual degree of horror is self-evident.
"Forget it. That demon has trapped me for such a long time and even humiliated me. I really can't swallow this anger. I'll just sacrifice my life for you. At worst, I can just run away!"
The pink hooded man gritted his teeth and said to Lei Xiao: "I understand, then act according to your plan, but don't forget, if the situation gets bad, don't expect me to save you!"
"We are grateful to you for your help."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and then his figure flashed, leading everyone to fly straight towards the depths of the huge city.
Accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air whizzing past their ears all the way, this time, Lei Xiao and his party did not encounter any obstacles and soon they were close to the skeleton hall.
As they looked at the huge white building getting closer and closer, the group's expressions became more solemn. It turned out to be shaped like a skeleton skull, which looked shocking.
"These damn bastards, they are all from my Broken Valley Alliance."
Old Guy looked at the huge pile of buildings, and his voice was full of sadness.
Lei Xiao held the sword tightly in his hand and remained silent. If he allowed the other party to continue like this, the next skeleton hall would probably be built on the human territory.
It didn't take long for the group to arrive at the gate of the huge white palace. There was no city gate here, and the jaw of the skull-shaped building was wide open, and the bottom was unseen.
"Cheer up, let's go."
Lei Xiao quickly gave himself and everyone else a buff, then took the brunt of it, ready to take another step forward.
"Wait, human boy."
The pink hooded man seemed to remember something, and handed several fist-sized grey gems to everyone one by one, nodding slightly and saying, "This is a gem that can resist space spells. It can prevent the opponent from forcibly teleporting you to the void space, but you can't use teleportation after wearing it. As for space spells such as space strangulation and space binding, although it has some defensive effect, the effect is extremely limited, especially under the premise of a huge gap in strength."
"Thank you, sir. That was a great help."
Lei Xiao took the gem and opened the attribute column.
[Name: Void Resistance Crystal]
[Resource level: Level 6 (rare)]
【Specification: 8cm】
[Purity: S+]
[Note: This is a special magic crystal, extremely precious and rare, and has a great repulsion to the void space, which can prevent the carrier from teleporting, and can resist other space-related spells to a certain extent.]
"Is it actually a sixth-level rare resource? It's on the same level as the Divine Land Magic Communication Gem given by the administrator."
Looking at the text in the attribute column, Lei Xiao's eyes widened a little.
As we all know, one of the most powerful means of space-based masters is to open a crack in the void space and directly suck the opponent in. As long as the crack closes again, the result can be imagined.
In addition, the space here is extremely chaotic, leaving us with almost no chance to use space scrolls. Therefore, the protective effect of this crystal is undoubtedly extremely significant.
From this, it is not difficult to see that this pink hooded man is indeed of great origin. He possesses a rare sixth-level resource, which is something rarely seen even in the Shadow Market of first-rate forces, and its value is immeasurable.
"Don't break it. I'm only lending it to you temporarily. You must return it to me when the time comes!"
Looking at the surprised expressions of the crowd, the man in the pink hood gave another reminder.
Hearing this, the group of people who received the crystal nodded, then gathered their minds and began to walk towards the depths of the pitch-black hall.
As they moved forward, Xiaojie and Youyou successively cast magic light balls for illumination and flew towards the skeleton gate.
However, the deep darkness was only illuminated to a very limited extent, as if it could absorb the light source, so that the group could only barely see the surrounding environment, as if they had walked into endless darkness.
Thump, thump, thump.
In the vague dark space that exudes a pungent and foul smell, which is spacious and long, only the cautious footsteps of a group of people are echoing, and the way forward is unknown.
An unknown amount of time had passed, but when the group was concentrating on detecting magic traps and being on guard around them, they suddenly noticed a group of blurry black shadows appearing on the road ahead.
Those densely packed black shadows stood there motionless. In the darkness, there was only an outline that barely looked like a human figure. Apart from that, nothing else could be seen clearly.
"what is that?"
After seeing this scene, everyone in the group raised their weapons with alert faces, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
"Whatever it is, just smash it to pieces!"
The pink hooded man obviously didn't have much patience. He swung the staff in his hand suddenly, and the space in front of him that was filled with dark shadows suddenly became distorted. The sound of rocks breaking followed one after another.
Under the spatial strangulation of the pink hooded man, the black shadows quickly fell apart and turned into a pile of debris on the ground.
It was not until then that everyone confirmed that it seemed to be just a pile of statues.
"Let's move on."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, the group took their own steps again.
When the piles of debris got closer, Lei Xiao noticed them.
These were indeed statues, and one could still barely see some patterns on the rubble on the ground, but the pink-hooded man was so efficient that he broke the statues into pieces the size of a fist, making it difficult to see their original appearance.
However, just as the group was passing by these rubbles, something strange happened.
Without any warning, accompanied by a sudden gust of blood-filled wind, the rubble flew into the air and soon returned to its original state.
At such a close distance, Lei Xiao could see clearly that they were statues of liches wearing cloaks. Even though they were made of stone, their withered faces were still hideous and terrifying.
Before everyone could react, the lifeless eye sockets of the restored lich statues suddenly glowed blood red, and they stretched out their dry hands and attacked from all directions.
"Don't use such a ridiculous trick to embarrass yourself!"
The pink hooded man snorted coldly, and the tremendous energy of the staff rushed out, accompanied by a bright light of light grey. The space around us was distorted and deformed, and the sound of breaking stones came one after another.
I saw the lich statues that had just been activated shattered into pieces and were easily crushed again by the pink hooded man. However, this time, the rubble did not fall to the ground, but continued to shoot towards us like bullets.
boom! boom! boom!
Since Xiao Jie had already erected an absolute defense barrier, there were sudden energy bombardments around us. Those gravel were not bullets but magic cannonballs.
"With me here, don't even think about breaking this barrier!"
Although the broken lich statues continued to attack, which was somewhat beyond the expectations of the pink hooded man, the latter immediately joined the ranks of supplying energy.
With the magic power supplied by the pink hooded man, our barrier wall suddenly became brighter. Although the attacks of those fragments were fierce, they still couldn't do anything to us. They were all further turned into dust in the energy collision, suspended in the air, and slowly fell to the ground.
When the attack stopped, just when Lei Xiao and his group were preparing to move forward again, the dust suspended in the air suddenly gathered from all directions at a high speed, and soon covered the entire wall of the barrier, like a pot lid falling down in front of us, causing us to lose our vision and unable to see the outside world at all.
"What is the other party going to do?"
Seeing this scene, everyone on our side couldn't help but frown.
I didn’t expect that even after the statue was first smashed into pieces and then turned into dust, the opponent was still able to perform tricks.
In this situation, no matter what spells or physical attacks are used, it would be difficult to do anything to the dust.
"It would be great if we could open up the void space, but unfortunately this is all filled with the demon's spatial barriers, and there is no way to break through it."
The pink hooded man frowned and muttered to himself.
Just as our group was trying to figure out the other party's purpose, the dust had already dissipated and soon disappeared into the air.
"This is?!"
As our vision was restored, when everyone on our side saw the scene clearly again, they all opened their eyes wide with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
This time, everyone had arrived at an extremely spacious new space, and the light was even much brighter. Appearing around everyone was a fully armed army of undead.
Judging from the majestic aura that permeated the surroundings, the strength of this army of undead was all above level five. They were densely packed, numbering at least tens of thousands. Their empty eye sockets were glowing with blood, making the air filled with murderous intent, which was shocking.
"Haha, I didn't expect that you ants would dare to come and die. I'll help you!"
A cold and arrogant voice sounded, echoing in the ears of the group. (End of this chapter)
