Chapter 1304 Current Situation and Progress
"At that time, I saw with my own eyes the thick dark clouds with lightning and thunder spreading towards the entire Fenglin Secret Realm with the force of thunder and gale. The rapidly expanding dark clouds soon covered the sky and the sun, making the earth pitch black. The sky that had just broken dawn fell into darkness again."
Liz sat leaning against the broken wall of the ruined wooden house, holding a juice cup in both hands that was obviously several sizes larger than her petite body, and her voice became increasingly trembling.
"In the sudden darkness, not only did the air become thinner, but inexplicable incomplete images began to appear around us. They were dazzling and intermittent, and even looked fragmented. It was a horrific scene of the wood elves being baptized by blood and fire."
"The burning tree house, the rising smoke, the corpses scattered all over the ground, the incomplete wings, the ground covered with red and black viscous liquid. It was completely different from the scene when the red dragon was rampaging. There was no flames all over the sky, only the corrosive liquid with black bubbles all over the ground and the faint stench."
"At first we thought it was a mirage created by the dimensional storm, or some kind of illusion meant to frighten us. But we soon discovered there was no illusion around us, and the emblem of the wood elves in the picture was completely different from ours. Those fellows who were sinking in the smoke and flames of war were not from the secret realm of the peaks and forests. This seemed to be a projection of a real scene from some place."
"We can be sure that, in this familiar land, apart from us, there is no other group of wood elves that can reach the scale shown in the picture. However, this horrific scene of destruction and death reminds us of the fiery catastrophe that happened hundreds of years ago. People are in panic everywhere."
“Although the wood elves are not afraid of strong enemies, this nightmare-like scene came too suddenly. It caught us off guard and made us completely confused about what happened.”
Liz wiped her cheek, which was blackened by gun smoke, and continued her description.
"Since these things happened in a split second, the images that lasted only a few seconds quickly disappeared. Even the dark clouds in the sky disappeared. The sun came back to the earth, and everything seemed to be back to normal."
"But just when I breathed a sigh of relief, a strong spatial gale suddenly swept in like a landslide or tsunami, causing the surrounding space to begin to distort at a very fast speed."
"A dazzling gray light flashed by, and when I came to my senses, I and my patrolling comrades had already appeared in this destroyed village of a strange people."
After hearing what Liz said, Jiang Xi's delicate face showed even more surprise, and he nodded thoughtfully.
Dark clouds covering the city, thunder and lightning, and thin air, these three points perfectly meet the characteristics of the early stage of the dimensional storm.
But this period usually lasts at least several days. It is impossible for it to progress so quickly, and such a wide coverage area is unheard of.
Moreover, the mirage that often accompanies dimensional storms has changed this time into a projection of the actual picture on the side of the transmission destination, which is completely different from the ordinary dimensional storm.
In addition, the three phenomena of an ordinary dimensional storm, such as dark clouds covering the city, will continue until the middle and late stages, and will not dissipate so quickly. This is why we did not expect it to be a dimensional storm when we arrived.
The most important thing is that some portals will indeed be randomly generated in the dimensional storm, but they only lead to nearby areas. However, here, a portal leading to another plate is directly opened, and it is even a passive teleportation. This is simply unheard of.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xi couldn't help but blurt out: "It seems that this is an unrecorded mutant dimensional storm."
"Or in other words, it's a mutant dimensional storm that has never happened before."
Lei Xiao took over the conversation and concluded: "It seems to have forcibly connected the two plates together, but it is in an unstable state. Otherwise, we should have been passively teleported here the moment we stepped into the secret realm of Fenglin."
"I agree with your Majesty's opinion."
Shu Erte nodded and said solemnly: "In any case, since it is a dimensional storm, there must be a core of the dimensional storm after all. As long as it is destroyed, it can end all this."
"Yes, if it continues to expand like this, no one knows what will happen, but one thing is certain, at the end of every dimensional storm, there is only destruction."
Cornette's face was full of awe as he echoed the words.
"It looks like we have figured out the situation at hand."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, but his heart was still full of questions.
Having said that, it is still unknown how this strange dimensional storm was formed, whether there are human factors involved, and whether it is related to future plate wars.
If it was just an extremely accidental and rare incident, it would be easier to deal with.
But if this is a prelude to a plate war, I am afraid it will continue to happen in the future, and at such a speed that we will be unable to defend ourselves.
"But what is certain is that even if it is the prelude to a plate war, it is hard to guard against and it will not happen only to me. It will definitely happen to all plates."
"Since everyone will encounter it, there is nothing to worry about. Even if it happens again, as long as I have the monitoring of the magic sand table in the Land of Gods, I will be able to detect the abnormality in the first time, and perhaps gain some advantages over the opponent on the other side."
"Furthermore, if this is really just a prelude, it will never develop into a full-scale war between the two lands. This means that things must happen within a relatively controllable range and will not continue to spread as Cornet worries. There may also be some kind of restrictions."
"Of course, this is just my guess. It is still unknown what exactly will happen."
Lei Xiao's brain was working rapidly. After thinking of various possibilities, he instantly brought his thoughts back to reality.
In any case, the main goal now is to first contact other wood elves in the secret area of the peak forest, and then work together to deal with the current crisis.
After all, we are now fighting away from home in an unknown land, and are clearly at a disadvantage compared to the opponent.
"Time is running out, let's talk as we go and meet up with the other wood elves first."
Seeing that Liz's breathing had stabilized, Lei Xiao waved his hand and said.
"Your Majesty is right. Wood fairies have a special way of tracking each other. I will lead the way!"
Liz drank the juice in the cup, spread her wings again and hovered at the front of the team.
Following Liz's flight trajectory all the way, Lei Xiao also learned more about what happened to Liz later.
After being passively teleported to this strange land, Liz and her comrades immediately discovered the corpses of their fellow aliens around them.
Before Liz and others could react, a large number of wood fairies from the secret realm of the peak forest were automatically teleported over.
After an inventory, Liz discovered that all the wood elves in the entire village near her base, regardless of gender, age or status, had come here.
For a moment, an atmosphere of uneasiness spread among the crowd. Many young wood elves even began to sob softly out of fear after seeing the scene of death and destruction all around them.
Although the wood elves are all natural magicians, after all, quite a few of them are not good at fighting, and the teleportation was too abrupt. Not to mention ordinary villagers, even many soldiers who were resting were empty-handed and had no time to carry any weapons.
Fortunately, Liz and several other wood elf commanders had some spare equipment in their storage rings. After quickly distributing them, and with the comfort and encouragement from the village chief and the elders, the emotions of the wood elves were stabilized.
After that, the wood elves felt waves of special and rapid energy fluctuations one after another, and they were gathering towards the same area. That was the assembly order after the Peak Forest Secret Realm encountered a major crisis, and only the wood elf chief and elders from all over the place could issue it.
It was at that time that Liz and others learned that not only the people in their area, but probably all the people in the entire Fenglin Secret Realm had been teleported to this strange land.
"After hearing the assembly signal, we immediately began to move towards our destination."
Liz flapped her translucent wings, leading the way ahead while speaking.
"I was in charge of the rear guard work, clearing the traces left by everyone to prevent potential enemies from finding and tracking them. But when I was almost done, I accidentally triggered a magic trap and was knocked unconscious by the shock wave of the explosion. Later, I was rescued by you all."
After listening to Liz's description, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
At this point, the whole story became completely clear.
Since the wood elves in the secret peak forest have chosen to gather, they must be looking for a way to return to their homeland.
In addition, there are a large number of wood elves, and their powerful ones are much more than our group. Perhaps they have discovered some clues.
While speeding, Lei Xiao noticed further.
After leaving the destroyed village, we could still see some wood fairy towns along the way with thick smoke rising from them. And this was not a mountainous forest terrain, but a whole mountain forest surrounded by mountains, covering an extremely vast area.
Judging from the activity level of light energy particles, the altitude should be higher. After all, the closer to the sun, the more active the light energy particles are.
In addition, there are also strong winds blowing in the space, and visible space distortions are everywhere. The pungent and stench in the air is becoming more and more intense.
In addition, the thick smoke covered the sky, and the corpses of exotic wood fairy soldiers and shriveled gray-robed soldiers could be seen everywhere. Under the reflection of the raging flames and the distorted space, it was bizarre and dazzling, just like purgatory.
Until Lei Xiao saw a large city made up of tree trunks and soil slowly emerging at the end of the horizon.
"Your Majesty, that is the city-building technique that the clan leader and elders are good at. It seems that this is our gathering place!"
Liz's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but blurt out.
Sure enough, as the city became clearer, Lei Xiao soon saw the wood fairy flag of the Peak Forest Secret Realm fluttering on the city wall.
However, before the group could be happy for too long, the ground suddenly began to shake slightly.
Because the energy fluctuations in the air were completely disordered, it was difficult for people to perceive what was happening, but through the uniform vibrations, Lei Xiao quickly determined that it was obviously a signal that the army was approaching rapidly.
It didn't take long before a gray torrent gathered from all directions, so dense that it soon surrounded the wood fairy city.
"This……"
Seeing this scene, Cornette could hardly believe his eyes.
The gray torrent seemed to appear suddenly around the city without any warning, as if it had fallen from the sky. It was simply suffocating.
Lei Xiao looked at him with a scrutinizing look, then nodded after some hesitation.
If what he guessed was correct, this should be due to the talent of the lord from another world. The other party seemed to have the ability to summon a large army in an instant.
From this position, Lei Xiao could already see clearly.
This gray torrent was composed of the gray mummy soldiers seen before. It was so vast that there was almost no end in sight.
And judging from the previous scenes, these gray soldiers are not golem puppets, otherwise they would cease to exist when they were defeated and would never remain on the ground.
At the same time, it does not have the characteristics of an alchemical puppet, but as Lina said, it is a special summoned creature similar to the undead.
That situation is somewhat unbelievable. The number of these gray soldiers is probably over 100,000. Although their specific classes are unknown, judging from the casualties compared with the wood elves, their individual strength is probably no less than the third level, and some are even higher.
Being able to instantly summon an army with such a comprehensive strength is something that even a demigod-level strongman cannot do. It can only be explained by the lord's talent.
From this, it is not difficult to see that the strength of the foreign lords in this land is quite impressive.
“No wonder the other party was able to destroy the wood fairies on this land to such an extent. Although I don’t know the overall strength of the wood fairies here, judging from the devastating situation, it is obvious that the other party has an absolute advantage.”
Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes and examined the current situation carefully.
After all, this is just my guess. As for the actual situation, further observation is needed.
But just as I thought just now, once the other party stands against me, it might not be a bad idea to eliminate this trouble in advance.
Just as Lei Xiao thought of this, fierce shouts and screams rang out, and the gray torrent of siege swept towards the city of the wood elves like a huge wave.
For a moment, the hot and twisted air was filled with murderous intent, and waves of foul and bloody hostility rose into the sky, making the whole scene seem extremely dangerous.
