Chapter 1189 An increasingly passive situation
Hearing the sudden wild laughter that shook their eardrums, everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
In the glowing inner city that was getting closer and closer, a giant dark red figure tens of meters tall was standing there, and a murderous intent so powerful that it was shocking surged out.
For a moment, the countless dark red roots around it seemed as if they had seen their master, and began to grow and twist more and more crazily.
Looking at the giant figure that blocked out the sky, Lei Xiao frowned tightly.
Apart from the human outline, the other party was blurry, with only the empty eyes that were blood red, and a suffocating and mysterious smell emanating from his body.
But it was not difficult to tell from the voice that it was the mysterious existence that replaced Ganelon IX.
The most crucial thing is that the opponent looks extremely powerful, even making people lose the courage to fight against him. Lei Xiao has never encountered this kind of strange feeling of being invincible by an enemy before. It is like facing a god.
Around Lei Xiao, most of our strong men were also filled with surprise, and some even took a few steps back unconsciously, obviously shocked by the scene before them.
Just as the strange feeling became stronger, Lei Xiao felt a sudden warmth in his chest, which then began to spread throughout his body.
As a warm current surged through his body, in Lei Xiao's mind, the opponent's sense of invincibility instantly disappeared, and instead, only the desire for victory and the sense of responsibility to protect everything remained.
"Is the God's Favor Badge working?"
Lei Xiao quickly found the source of the warmth, and suddenly he understood: "So, the other party is trying to use some kind of mental manipulation to suppress our morale?"
As expected, just as Lei Xiao was thinking about this, Bing Lao's stern voice rang out: "Don't be bewitched by your opponent. That's just a projection spell with a suppressing effect. Your opponent is just bluffing!"
After saying that, a wave of cool and refreshing energy suddenly erupted around Bing Lao. Our warriors then came back to their senses from their fear and tightened their weapons again.
As Bing Lao, who was once the chosen son of a demigod, naturally also possesses the ability to use the power of God.
Seeing that everyone had returned to normal, Lei Xiao ignored them and instead directed everyone to continue flying towards the depths of the city.
"Is that really the case? A blindly arrogant orphan from the old era, the chosen son of God with the ice attribute."
The mysterious being obviously sensed the presence of Bing Lao and said contemptuously, "So, that ice-attributed divine land outside was once your grave, right?"
"Since you know this, you should also know what kind of strength a chosen son of God must have to be qualified to rule a place favored by God."
Although Bing Lao was somewhat surprised that his opponent had revealed these things that ordinary people would never know, he still said calmly, "How can a demigod's dignity allow a petty thief like you to comment on it?"
After hearing what Mr. Bing said, there was a commotion among our rushing camp.
Except for our direct subordinates, most of our strong men looked up at us with a confused look.
Although they didn't know what the terms that Old Bing said meant, they had all seen Old Bing's unfathomable and vast strength.
Furthermore, judging from the awe-inspiring terms such as "God's Chosen Son", "God's Favored Land", and "Powerful Demigod", it is clear that this old man in blue robe is of great importance!
Among them, Cecilia and Barnett, who had fought against Bing Lao before, couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and a sense of fear rose in their hearts.
How overconfident were they at that time to dare to compete with such an unfathomable powerful being?
As for Gray Old Man and Joniel, they were the few knowledgeable people who had a good understanding of the lost history. Naturally, they understood the meaning of Ice Old Man's words, and their faces showed irrepressible shock.
Of course, there was only one exception among the crowd, and that was Antonio.
Although this knowledgeable old magician only partially understood what Bing Lao said, he could clearly feel that Bing Lao was obviously more powerful and mysterious than he had imagined!
This undoubtedly means that actively choosing to join Lei Xiao's camp is simply the best choice in his life!
While everyone's hearts were filled with huge waves of excitement, they couldn't help but focus their attention on Lei Xiao, the core of the team.
Even a transcendent being like Bing Lao was willing to obey the orders of this young man from another world, so everything was naturally self-evident.
In front of the crowd, the mysterious existence that blocked out the sun and sky sneered and said to Bing Lao jokingly: "Don't bluff there. You are just struggling to survive now. This time, I will make the land of God's favor become your real grave!"
"Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do it!"
Bing Lao's blue robe was rustling and the air around him was filled with coldness. It was obvious that he was in an extremely angry state.
"Ganelon IX... No, who are you?"
Just as the two sides were confronting each other, Gray Lao calmed down and couldn't help but frown and asked.
"The president of the Mercenary Guild and the president of the Alchemist Guild, it must have been a hundred years since that meeting. You two are really slow-witted old guys."
The mysterious existence's empty bloodshot eyes moved back and forth between Gray Old Man and Joniel, and he said jokingly, "As for who I am, there is no need for you to know, because you are about to become my "nutrients", hehehehe!"
"So, you had already replaced Ganelon IX at that meeting? No wonder you were so stupid and put forward so many unrealistic ideas."
Joniel's old face was full of gloom, and he responded: "Don't think that your trick has succeeded. My Alchemist Guild will never sit idly by and let you continue to threaten the human world!"
"That's right, the Mercenary Guild will fight you to the end!"
Gray Old Man's wrinkled face also showed a hint of murderous intent, and he echoed: "Don't think that the human world is too fragile!"
Looking at the two top human warriors who were speeding towards him, the mysterious being laughed wildly and said grimly, "If you had discovered the clues a hundred years ago and conducted a detailed investigation, perhaps I would be more afraid of you."
"And now, everything is under my control, what can you do?"
"If it weren't for that despicable scum from another world, I'm afraid you would still be kept in the dark by me. You are really a bunch of stupid people."
After hearing the ridicule from the mysterious being, Gray Old Man and Joniel were speechless for a moment and could only clench their fists.
Just as the other party said, at the meeting a hundred years ago, although they felt that Ganelon IX was a little strange, that was all.
After all, the Temple of Light is too powerful, with many talented and powerful people among it, and it is respected by royal families of various countries. Who would have thought that the ruler of the temple, who is above all these, would be replaced quietly? It is simply incredible.
In addition, the three neutral human organizations have always been in a state of mutual checks and balances, and they are not honest with each other, which has also alleviated the suspicion of the Temple of Light to a considerable extent.
Just when Gray Old Man and Jonil were speechless, Lei Xiao's calm voice suddenly rang out: "Don't talk to yourself there. You have only been defeated many times. Are you bluffing because we are about to destroy your lair?"
"You despicable alien, I thought you were scared and didn't dare to act recklessly, but I didn't expect you to still be stubborn."
The mysterious being stared at Lei Xiao with his hollow bloodshot eyes, and said with murderous intent: "Before this, I was only focused on the "Sacred Plan" and didn't want to cause any trouble. That's why you have been so presumptuous until now."
"And the more you muddy the waters of the human world, the more attention you will attract, and the easier it will be for me to make the final arrangements. You don't think you have really defeated me, do you?"
The mysterious being's tone became more contemptuous, and he said with disdain: "After all, you are just a chess piece on my chessboard. Who gave you the confidence to dare to shake the chess master who controls everything?"
"My confidence comes from every strong person around me, the soldiers who are fighting bloody battles for the human world, and those who are silently contributing to the human world. The strength these people bring to me is immeasurable and beyond your comprehension. As long as there is hope, the human world will not be destroyed."
Lei Xiao was speeding through the huge city covered with dark red as he said calmly, "As for whether you are the chess master you claim to be, then let your own hands show the truth. History will prove everything, and you will eventually become dust obliterated by time and become a laughing stock among people."
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, our strong men couldn't help but become excited, and they all stepped towards the unknown dangerous place with excitement.
"Foolish and insignificant alien, I admit that you are indeed very eloquent, but it is a pity that only power can dominate everything."
The mysterious being smiled instead of getting angry, looking at Lei Xiao with a playful expression, and suddenly said, "Isn't it time?"
Hearing this, all the strong men, including Lei Xiao, obviously did not understand the meaning of the other party's words and frowned.
Just as Lei Xiao was carefully savoring the meaning of the other party's words, a hurried voice suddenly rang out.
After the call was connected, Ariel's panicked voice came out immediately: "Your Excellency, just now, a foul smell suddenly came from the sealed branch of the Holy Temple of Light in the capital, and then countless dark red fluids like roots gushed out of it. In the blink of an eye, it spread to the entire capital and was still spreading wildly outside the city. Even the Lion Castle was covered with dark red!"
"I understand. Evacuate all residents of the capital immediately and flee to a safe place first!"
Lei Xiao's voice was a little more anxious, and he responded: "Leave the rest to me."
Lei Xiao had just finished his call with Ariel, and more news soon came in.
According to the subordinates who stayed behind in various places, as well as the urgent news from lords such as Qin Qian, dark red roots had appeared not only in the royal capital and the Lengyan Kingdom, but were also spreading rapidly.
Even other areas of the Kingdom of Grimm where everyone is currently, the Kingdom of Holy Night, the Pars Empire and all seven other human nations, and even remote places such as the territories, major fortresses and the Mountain Crystal Principality in the Demon Shadow Forest were not spared and were all covered by the dark red roots.
This not only includes all human cities, but also remote areas such as wilderness, rivers, mountains, dungeons and ancient ruins. Eyewitness reports have been reported from all of them.
In other words, the entire human world is now rapidly being enveloped by these horrible substances that emit a foul stench and blood, and there is simply no escape or avoidance.
This is exactly what Lei Xiao is most worried about.
"It's exactly as I speculated just now. Not only this Glowing City, but the entire human world has become the target of that mysterious existence?"
Cold sweat broke out on Lei Xiao's forehead and he clenched his fists.
Just then, worse news came again.
According to reports from generals such as Bert who were fighting on the city wall, those savage roots were also spread all over the city wall, and had begun to actively entangle the bodies of the wounded soldiers, making it impossible to cut them off or break free.
Looking at Lei Xiao's solemn expression, although our other strong men had not received the news yet, they all felt a sense of solemnity and worry rising in their hearts.
This undoubtedly shows that our situation has become increasingly passive.
"Hehehe, you despicable alien, it seems you have received relevant reports."
The giant figure of the mysterious existence still blocked out the sky and the sun, laughing wantonly: "The absorption of Glowing City is about to begin, and none of you can leave. When Glowing City absorbs to a certain extent, it will be the turn of the entire human world."
"Too bad, we will defeat you before that happens and destroy the source of your dark plan."
Lei Xiao forced himself to calm down and said calmly, "Just like the countless times I have thwarted the actions of your men before."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, the towering glowing inner city wall appeared at the end of the road.
Looking at the white wall that was getting closer and closer, the faces of our strong men were full of urgency and excitement.
As long as they overcome this obstacle, they will be very close to the enemy's lair.
"You stupid bastards, you don't really think you can get to me before I absorb nutrients, do you?"
The mysterious being laughed in a teasing voice, and said unscrupulously: "It's a pity that you can't even cross this wall!"
As the mysterious being's voice fell, Lei Xiao paid further attention.
I saw that the enemy's inner city walls were covered with densely packed soldiers, and the air was filled with hostility.
These soldiers did not seem to be physical entities, but were surrounded by a hazy black fog, just like what they had seen at the foot of Sunset Fortress. Even a fifth-level strongman could not do anything to these black fog soldiers!
In addition, the city wall sometimes glows with light, and it is obvious that it is covered with an extremely strong absolute defense barrier, which looks indestructible.
Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao was thinking about the next strategy to break the city.
I saw countless black fog soldiers with bared fangs and claws surging in from the streets around the team and behind us, completely surrounding us in the center.
