Chapter 1168 Breaking Free and Counterattacking
Along with the sudden cry for help, the figure hidden in the shadows became clearer.
She was a thin young woman, wearing a tattered white dress, her slender limbs were bound by heavy black chains, her hair was like a pile of dead grass, and her white face covered with mud was full of urgency.
Noticing Lei Xiao's gaze, the young woman who looked like a prisoner suddenly had a glimmer of hope in her dull blue eyes with dark circles under them.
She dragged the heavy chains and staggered forward, biting her cracked lips and said, "I'm sorry, sir, I didn't mean to trap you in a cage, but I can't resist his power!"
Hearing the other party's voice again, Lei Xiao's brows were furrowed, still not relaxing at all.
It was not difficult to tell from the other party's words that he was the hostile stone elf who cast the [Death Cage]. However, the other party's appearance, which was no different from that of a slave, caught Lei Xiao off guard.
"My Lord, this is indeed the stone spirit transformed from the enemy God's Stone. I can clearly sense the same aura emanating from her, and it is exactly the same as the aura on the Death Cage."
Wu tightly protected Lei Xiao and spoke in time: "Moreover, this breath is also mixed with despair, helplessness, exhaustion, fear, and the urgency of hoping to be rescued, as well as sincerity from the heart. These are all genuine."
"So, the other party didn't lie?"
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, quickly reviewing the current situation in his mind.
First of all, there is no doubt that he is the caster of [Death Cage], and he is a stone elf transformed from [God's Stone].
Secondly, this stone elf was obviously completely different from what he had imagined. Rather than being an enemy of ours, it was more like a tool in the hands of the enemy.
Finally, she hopes to break the shackles imposed by the enemy and is seeking help from our side.
"Then the matter is very obvious. One more friend is always better than one more enemy. Moreover, the [Death Cage] this guy cast is extremely tricky. He can also see through my invisibility. Who knows if he has any other deadly methods."
"If we can help him break free from his shackles and turn his enemies into friends through his own efforts and cooperation, that would naturally be the most appropriate thing to do."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao had already made up his mind.
In any case, the [God's Stone] is the key to the truth of the world. If it can be used for one's own benefit, it would be like killing two birds with one stone.
With the above as a premise, who can refuse the call for help from a down-and-out beautiful girl?
"No, how exactly was the other party controlled?"
Lei Xiao calmed himself down and did not approach the other party immediately. Instead, he stopped and asked the flame-robed strong man beside him first.
"My Lord, the problem may be with the chains. According to my sense, the chains are enchanted with an evil power similar to that of controlling the mind. As long as we break the chains, we should be able to release the other party's control."
Wu hesitated for a moment, then frowned and said, "However, Lord, those chains are extremely hard, and I'm afraid ordinary force will not be able to work on them."
"What about the power of God's favor?"
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and asked immediately.
"It should be about the same."
Wu Zhong nodded and responded, "But according to my estimation, it can only be lifted at a very close distance."
"Understood. Without further ado, you are responsible for covering, and I will find a way to remove those black chains."
Lei Xiao first took out two fifth-order speed scrolls, increased his and Wujiang's movement speed to the maximum, and then waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"
Before flying out, Lei Xiao nodded to the other party, expressing his agreement with the other party's request with his actions.
"Really? Are you willing to save this little girl?"
Seeing Lei Xiao's actions, the stone elf's dirty eyes suddenly sparkled and he couldn't stop expressing his gratitude.
However, just as Lei Xiao was about to shoot towards him, the opponent seemed to be hit hard on the head. He covered his head in pain and suddenly shouted, "Don't come over here yet!"
After saying that, the other party's frail body began to tremble uncontrollably, and the originally clear azure blue eyes seemed to be dripped with blood, and a frightening scarlet began to spread rapidly until it covered the entire eyeball.
"No one can defy the will of the Supreme Lord. That despicable alien must die!"
The stone elf stared with scarlet eyes, like a puppet, and tilted its stiff head with a sly smile.
Immediately afterwards, an extremely violent and vast energy suddenly burst out from the opponent's trembling thin body, and then, with the opponent himself as the center, it spread madly towards Lei Xiao and the others.
"Not good, Lord, retreat quickly!"
Seeing this, although Wu reacted extremely quickly and stood directly in front of Lei Xiao, this force was obviously faster and instantly enveloped the two of them, forming a new confinement barrier.
In shock, Lei Xiao felt as if he had suddenly carried a huge mountain on his back. For a moment, he could hardly move a step, and the invisibility effect was completely broken.
"My Lord, this imprisonment barrier not only unloads force but also adds gravity suppression. It is obviously much stronger than the previous one, and the suppression becomes more severe as you get closer to the center!"
Wu gritted his teeth and just as he said this, a sky full of arrows and attack spells had already fallen from the top of the arena and attacked again fiercely.
"As expected of the Supreme Master's puppet, his strength is truly extraordinary!"
Hall grinned grimly and said, "You despicable alien, let's see how you can escape this time!"
When Lei Xiao and Wu were invisible, the new King of Grimm did not find Lei Xiao's trace for a while, but he soon realized that Lei Xiao would definitely solve the root cause of the [Death Cage] first.
After locating the approximate position of Lei Xiao and the other two, Hall immediately made corresponding deployments. Unexpectedly, just as the deployment was completed, the invisibility of Lei Xiao and the other two was broken by the imprisonment barrier, which led to this scene.
"Hahahaha, once that despicable alien dies, the Cold Flame Kingdom will belong to me!"
Looking at Lei Xiao and Wu who were trapped in the barrier, even activating the magic scroll was extremely slow. The smile on Hall's face became more unscrupulous, and he said fiercely: "Attack with all your strength, kill him for me!"
"My methods are more than just that. I've told you that you can't kill me."
Facing the opponent's imminent and massive attack, although his body felt extremely heavy, Lei Xiao remained calm.
Just when Lei Xiao was about to pull out a new trump card, he suddenly felt the extreme feeling of oppression disappear, and an absolute defensive barrier rose up.
"My lord, get out of the way!"
Not far away, the thin body of the skinny stone elf was trembling slightly.
She clenched her teeth, her eyes were sometimes blue, and sometimes a blush flashed across them. It was obvious that she was trying her best to fight against the black chain. She said in a firm voice: "You are my hope, and I will not let you get hurt!"
Seeing the blood slowly dripping from the corner of the opponent's mouth, it was obvious that he had bitten his lip. Lei Xiao was stunned for a moment, then nodded to Wu and said, "Good opportunity, I will break the opponent's black chain, and I will leave the cover to you."
After saying that, the two of them flew towards each other without hesitation.
boom! boom! boom!
Under the continuous attack of the opponent's group spells, continuous and violent explosions began to sound in the absolute defense barrier.
With each explosion, the frail stone elf's body seemed to have been hit hard and began to become increasingly shaky.
Lei Xiao rushed to the front of the opponent, and purple light flashed in his hand. He slapped the connection of the heavy chains on the opponent's body.
The sound of chains breaking was heard one after another. With the blessing of the power of God, the seemingly indestructible chains were quickly shattered by Lei Xiao.
The broken pieces of black chain dissolved into the air in an instant before they even hit the ground. This was a sign that the curse had been broken.
In the blink of an eye, the heavy black chains completely disappeared from the frail body of the stone elf, allowing her to finally break free and regain her freedom.
"Thank you very much, sir!"
With excitement in his heart, two lines of tears rolled down the stone elf's dirty white face, and he was about to kneel down in front of Lei Xiao.
Lei Xiao helped the other person up in time, nodded slightly and said: "Now is not the time to talk about this, let's leave here first."
Lei Xiao could clearly feel it during the process of breaking the black chains just now.
Although his divine power played a dominant role, the other party also tried his best to break free from the restraints, which enabled him to lift the curse as quickly as possible.
After saying that, Lei Xiao and the other two disappeared from the spot in an instant.
As all this happened in a flash, by the time Hall reacted, Lei Xiao and the other two had already disappeared again, leaving only broken arrows all over the ground and smoke still rising.
"What happened?"
Seeing the target disappear from his grasp again, Hall was furious and smashed his fist hard on the armrest of the throne.
"Your Majesty, it seems that the mysterious thing has taken the initiative to remove the imprisonment barrier, and even converted it into an absolute defense barrier for a period of time!"
The skinny General Grimm, who had a rather vicious look in his eyes, stepped forward and reported: "That mysterious thing seems to have escaped the restraints of the Supreme Lord!"
"How is this possible? No one can escape the bondage of the Supreme Lord!"
Hall was stunned for a moment, then said in disbelief: "This must be the conspiracy of that despicable alien!"
"Your Majesty, it seems that the mysterious thing is really helping that despicable alien!"
The short and fat general also came over and said through gritted teeth: "I'm afraid we can only rely on ourselves now."
"So what? After these rounds of attacks, the opponent's energy should have been almost consumed."
After listening to the words of the two generals, Hall had to accept the reality and said grimly: "But I still have at least 200,000 troops in my hands. The enemy will still die!"
After that, Hall's eyes were filled with anger again, and he shouted, "Continue to search for that guy with all your strength!"
As soon as Hall finished speaking, before anyone else had time to react, a tall figure appeared next to the chief VIP desk and said indifferently, "Are you looking for me?"
Needless to say, the person who came was Lei Xiao.
"It's that despicable alien!"
Seeing Lei Xiao so close, despite the absolute defensive barrier, Hall and the seven or eight Grimm generals behind him were all startled and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Among them, the two generals Heng and Ha sat down directly on the ground with pale faces, and it was obvious that they were extremely afraid of Lei Xiao.
"you you……"
After he calmed down a little after panicking, Hall said with disdain: "Even if you come to me, what can you do? What can a mere one person do to me? I am surrounded by warriors who protect the Holy King!"
As Hall finished his words, the other enemy soldiers around him immediately began to re-form their formation and pressed towards the direction where Lei Xiao was.
At this close distance, for fear of accidentally damaging Hall's absolute defense barrier, the enemy soldiers did not use long-range attacks immediately, but they all set up their bows and crossbows and magic wands, looking ready to go.
Seeing the large number of soldiers gathered in the surrounding stands, Hall and his two generals around him instantly gained confidence, and a hint of playfulness emerged on their faces.
Since those despicable scum from another world came here to die, they would naturally not show any mercy.
Thinking of this in their minds, Hall and others took out their weapons with a grim smile, obviously preparing to cooperate with the soldiers outside inside the absolute defense barrier in an attempt to kill Lei Xiao.
"Who said I'm alone?"
Facing the opponent's attempt to attack from both sides, Lei Xiao was not panicked at all. He just smiled faintly and said, "It's time to end this farce."
As Lei Xiao finished his words, shouts of killing arose behind the Grimm soldiers who surrounded him one after another. An unfamiliar army of at least tens of thousands of people suddenly appeared out of nowhere and launched a charge directly.
As all this happened so suddenly, the Grimm soldiers in the back row had no time to react. Before they could even turn around, they were pierced from behind by sharp swords and spears and fell down screaming.
By the time the other enemies noticed the change, they turned back to check the situation.
Around Lei Xiao, a group of tall and burly warriors exuding a powerful aura suddenly appeared. They began to swing their giant swords, mowing down the surrounding unsuspecting enemy troops like a whirlwind.
This is because although the audience seats in the arena are extremely large, some parts are relatively narrow.
Therefore, although the number of our emerging forces is relatively limited, the opponent's huge camp cannot be deployed at all.
Under the attack from both sides, many enemy soldiers were caught off guard and crowded together, and even many of them who were standing unsteadily fell directly to the stands on the next level, uttering wails.
This is not over yet. Just as the opposing camp was in chaos, countless arrows whistled down from the heights of the arena, starting a new round of harvest.
For a moment, the huge arena was filled with blood and screams were heard one after another, echoing in every corner of the ancient stands.
