Surprised, Lei Xiao did not hesitate and immediately informed the powerful people around him of the other party's identity.
"What? He is also a lord from another world?"
Hearing the sound, a look of awe flashed across the faces of the powerful men, and they all took a deep breath of the air in the dark cabin area that was filled with the salty and rotten smell.
Lei Xiao lowered his body and carefully observed the other party's situation.
The other person was even wearing a pair of broken sunglasses, and his completely stiff dark face was full of fear, and it was obvious that he had encountered some terrible scene before he died.
Through the broken sunglasses, Lei Xiao looked at the other person's bloodshot eyes which were still wide open, and frowned slightly.
This is the second time I have seen the foreign lord since the mutant dimensional storm.
"My Lord, the wound on the other party is very neat, and it is obvious that he was cut in half by some sharp weapon."
Tiger Stick stayed beside Lei Xiao, fiddling with the staff that was also cut in half beside the corpse, and reported: "Also, the damaged robe and staff of the other party are both level five. Other than that, the other party did not have any important items on him. It is obvious that he had been looted."
"I see. That almost rules out the possibility of a monster attack. Otherwise, the monster would only leave behind important items instead of corpses, and the wounds would hardly be so neat."
Lei Xiao stroked his chin gently, and his brain began to work rapidly.
So, how did the other party die here? More precisely, who was the other party's enemy?
After thinking for a while, a hint of hesitation appeared in Lei Xiao's eyes.
"From the current situation, there are only two possibilities."
"The first possibility is that the other party is originally a lord from another world who descended on this plate of the City of Ten Thousand Ships. Then the enemy of the other party is very obvious. Perhaps it is another lord who also descended on this plate, or perhaps it is the original force that remains in the dark here."
"But this will lead to a key problem. That is, as a special miracle building, the Lord's Mansion must rely on the ground to function. How do the Lords here upgrade?"
"Besides, this place is all seawater, and it is difficult to find resources to upgrade the mansion. How did they develop? This is obviously not in line with common sense."
"As for the second possibility, it is that the other party is the same as me. He did not originally land here, but was also guided here by the invisible big hands through the forcible splicing of the barrier area."
"This means that there are obviously more roads leading to this place than the isolated island we just passed. The most important thing is that no matter how you think about it, this possibility is more likely than the first one."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao took a deep breath slowly.
If this is true, then the true identity of the invisible hands is obvious, it must be the "prompt sound".
This place has the same function as the mutated dimensional storm, it is basically an arena specially prepared for the lords!
Just as Lei Xiao frowned and thought about this, new reports soon came from other powerful men who were on guard and investigating nearby.
"Your Excellency, we have also found several bodies that are not skeletons in the shadow of the ship wall on the side of the fountain. Judging from the dried blood, they have probably died no more than three days ago!"
"Your Majesty, there are traces of a very fierce fight here!"
"Your Majesty, some corpses have appeared at the entrance to the left passage!"
Hearing the voice, Lei Xiao calmed his mind and began to check the places everyone mentioned one by one.
After some investigation, Lei Xiao summarized all the information about this square and several surrounding passages.
Firstly, there was only one corpse of the lord, but judging from the emblem on his robe, most of the other corpses had the same mark, and they were obviously his subordinates or men.
Secondly, there were quite a few corpses that were obviously from another camp, most of them were humans, and there were even some orcs and werewolves, all of whom had the same emblems.
Finally, and most importantly, through analysis of the remaining traces of fighting, a small number of them were sixth-level warriors, while the vast majority were fifth-level warriors, and both sides had obviously experienced a great battle.
And it is not difficult to judge from the footprints that the two sides should have met in the square through different passages, and then started a fierce battle.
As to whether the victorious party is also a lord from another world, there is no definite answer yet, but what is certain is that the other party has obviously swept away everything.
In addition, Lei Xiao also noticed an unusual and strange place.
That is, after experiencing the bombardment of fifth-level and even sixth-level strong men, this place is almost intact except for the many traces left by the battle. This is obviously not in line with common sense.
You know, without any protective measures, even a fourth-level strong man can tear this place apart, let alone the powerful fifth-level and sixth-level strong men?
After realizing this, all the powerful men showed confusion on their faces and began to look at each other.
Even if all the wood used here is the hardest elven wood, which is enough to resist the corrosion of sea water and allow this place to stand for thousands of years, it will never be able to withstand the fierce battle between sixth-level strongmen. Even the aftermath of the energy collision is enough to smash this place to pieces.
"My Lord, what is going on?"
Xiao Jing thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so she asked Lei Xiao.
"It's very simple, we can just give it a try."
Lei Xiao nodded to Gray Old Man who was on standby, and ordered: "Old Chairman, see if you can make a big hole here. Don't hold back, just do your best."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Gray Old Man, who had already been ready to go, suddenly flashed with a cold light from the short blade in his hand, and immediately turned into a phantom, shooting towards the nearest barrier wall.
boom!
Accompanied by a dull sound of energy collision, the entire ship wall was still intact, and Gray Old Man's face was full of surprise, and he soon returned to Lei Xiao's side.
"Your Majesty, this place is surrounded by an imperceptible protective barrier, and it also has an irresistible force-dissipating effect. It is impossible to penetrate it."
Gray Old Man shook his head helplessly and reported to Lei Xiao.
"Is that true?"
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, looking as if he had expected it.
At the moment when Gray Old attacked, a faint stream of magic did flash on the wall of the ship, easily blocking the former's full-strength attack.
"My Lord, this absolute defense barrier is extremely mysterious and seems to contain endless magical power, far exceeding the scope of the sixth level. I'm afraid it is at least at the seventh level of the demigod level."
Xiaojie's fair face was full of surprise as she blurted out.
“No, even I have only seen such an absolute defensive barrier during the peak period of the God’s Land. A demigod cannot do this.”
Mr. Bing's face was full of solemnity as he corrected Xiaojie's statement.
Since all the powerful men had some understanding of Bing Lao's identity, the whole place fell silent after hearing his words.
So, this is the means to reach the realm of God? It is simply unbelievable.
"My Lord, if the people of the City of Ten Thousand Ships are so powerful, why has it become like this?"
Xiao Jing tilted her head, looking puzzled.
"The answer is actually very simple, because this was not their work. The city they left behind was only used as a special venue, or the stage we mentioned at the beginning."
After saying that, Lei Xiao did not hide anything and told everyone his idea about the protagonist fighting arena. Of course, he omitted some details about the "prompt sound".
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, the whole audience fell silent again.
Everyone looked shocked and could hardly believe their ears.
The Lord's words have been made very clear. The one controlling all of this is undoubtedly a true god.
"Don't be too surprised, don't forget that the arrival of us, the lords of other worlds, is a miracle in itself, although I haven't figured out the reason behind it yet."
Lei Xiao's expression remained calm and he raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Your Majesty is right. That is a realm that we cannot reach at all. But now, we can actually witness this with our own eyes beside Your Majesty. It is undoubtedly our honor."
Shulter nodded heavily and agreed.
"That's right. Even if the gods are those invisible hands, they have nothing to do with us."
Chris also stood up and agreed: "We just need to follow His Majesty the Human Race. This will give us hope for the future before the catastrophe that may come at any time."
Hearing this, the others nodded in agreement, and the depressing atmosphere was quickly restored.
"Your Majesty, I have one thing that I am extremely confused about."
Bruno showed respect and was puzzled. "But all this started because Your Majesty wanted to save our Minotaur fleet, so you led the people here. How did the gods know that you would come here?"
After saying this, an irrepressible gratitude welled up on Bruno's bull face, and the other minotaurs around him all had the same expression.
You know, the human king risked his life for them, and they simply have no way to repay such a great kindness.
"Perhaps the gods have figured out my movements, or maybe not, but what is certain is that this place was not set up for me alone, so it would continue regardless of whether I came or not, with just a different gladiator. To be more precise, it is probably because of my presence as the lord that the other party forced the connection of the barrier area and led us to this duel arena that has been built long ago."
Lei Xiao shrugged and responded: "Besides, even if I don't come, if they want, they have other means to send me here, so whether it is for the gods or for us, the process of coming here is not important."
"Your Excellency is right. We are not the only ones here, and we are definitely not the first."
Jiang Xi glanced at the lord's body on the ground, then nodded heavily and said, "But no matter what, we are willing to fight for the lord."
"We are all willing to fight for our Lord (the Human Majesty)!"
Hearing this, everyone else present echoed and said in unison with high spirits.
"I feel your confidence, which will make me move forward courageously."
Lei Xiao's eyes sparkled, and he waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's move on."
After hearing Lei Xiao's order, all the strong men present immediately took action and continued to move towards the unknown depths.
The group had just moved forward for a while when a familiar reminder voice suddenly sounded in Lei Xiao's ears.
[Dear Lord Lei Xiao, welcome to participate in the 000105th "Lord Arena". The arena this time is No. 000078. The goal of the competition is to seize the treasure. The lord who successfully seizes the treasure can leave the enchantment area and return to the original sea area by the route he came from, and has the privilege of deciding the fate of other surviving lords. ]
[Hint: The last participating lord is sailing into the arena area. ]
【Tip: This competition is about to begin. 】
【Reminder: This competition has started. 】
As the prompt sounded, the roar of a large number of magic cannons outside suddenly resounded through the sky, and even Lei Xiao and others in the cabin could hear it clearly.
"My Lord, what happened?"
Xiao Jing tightly grasped the condensed thin sword, her little face full of solemnity.
"Is it really the second possibility? It seems that my guess is correct. We can only leave here if we seize the so-called treasure before other lords."
Lei Xiao briefly described the prompt sound he had just heard and frowned slightly.
The prompt explains the rules, but it does not explain other important details.
Such as the number of lords participating in the competition, the location of the treasure, etc.
Moreover, there is another extremely important point, that is, some lords have just entered this sea area and are still outside the cabin, while some lords must have entered here like himself.
This means that the battlefield is not only inside the cabin, but also on the sea. If our fleet is completely wiped out, even if we win the final victory, how to leave here will be a problem. After all, according to the rules given by the prompt, we have to return along the original route and pass through the dangerous area full of sixth-level sea monsters.
In other words, it was obvious that he was unable to be on two unrelated battlefields at the same time.
What's more, not only is the number of participating lords unknown, but the strength of each lord is also unknown.
In this situation, if his fighting power is dispersed too much, he will undoubtedly be in a very disadvantageous position, let alone seize the unknown treasure.
"Your Majesty, leave the outside to me! The Minotaur fleet has been sailing in the sea for more than two thousand years, and will never lose to anyone else!"
Bruno obviously saw Lei Xiao's difficulty, and patted his muscular chest and said: "No matter what, your majesty went deep into this dangerous place for us, and we will never embarrass your majesty!"
"Understood. I will let Erza and a few strong men follow you. If it is not necessary, the fleet can hide under the invisibility of illusion and wait for orders."
Lei Xiao made a decision quickly and began to deploy immediately.
