Chapter 1308: Defeat and Return
In just a moment, the shining purple magic light emitting a cold aura landed firmly on the skinny black shadow.
boom!
Caught off guard, the opponent had no time to react and was directly struck away by the lightning that was powerful enough to split mountains and rocks.
It was not until more than ten meters away that the skinny figure struggled to get up from the ground, looking extremely embarrassed.
I saw that the gray robe on his body was charred all over and was constantly emitting thick smoke. The face that was originally hidden in the hood was completely revealed.
"What kind of power is this? It can actually break my forbidden magic?!"
The other person's brown, skinny face with prominent cheekbones was full of disbelief, his bloodshot eyes bulged out, and he was gasping for breath. There was no trace of the recklessness just now, only fear and despair.
"How dare a mere clown challenge the Lord of Daxia?"
Lei Xiao looked at the other person's hair color, which was the same as his own, and couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"You, you are the Lord of Daxia?!"
Hearing this, the frightened look on the skinny lord's face intensified, and he blurted out, "Are you the Lei Xiao who won so many world firsts?"
"It's too late to know now."
There was no change on Lei Xiao's face as he rushed straight towards the other party.
"Sir, I have admired Daxia for a long time. After all, I used to be..."
Seeing that Lei Xiao had no intention of holding back, the skinny lord looked as pale as death and quickly spoke again.
Although he said so on the surface, his cloudy eyeballs rolled around and his thin face revealed a hint of viciousness. He was obviously looking for an opportunity to counterattack and was preparing to condense an energy barrier in secret.
Lei Xiao naturally would not give the other party this opportunity. Before the other party could finish his words, Lei Xiao's sharp sword had already pierced his chest, bringing out a trace of foul-smelling black blood.
"Anyone who opposes the Lord of Daxia will be punished no matter how far away they are, let alone a self-righteous guy like you."
Lei Xiao kicked the lifeless skinny corpse away and shook off the black blood flowing on the sword blade.
As the skinny lord's body fell to the ground, the dense gray army fell to the ground like puppets with their strings cut, making the battlefield, which was originally full of violence, quiet in an instant.
Not only that, as the gray army fell to the ground, the thick dark clouds covering the battlefield also dissipated, allowing the bright sunshine to once again descend on this strange land.
"The battle is over. You are worthy of being the Lord!"
Xiao Jie, who had been guarding Lei Xiao, was the first to speak excitedly and subconsciously hugged Lei Xiao's arm.
It didn't take long before the other strong men on our side, including Shult and Cornet who had been hiding in the corner controlling the alchemical puppet, gathered together again, and they were all delighted.
After some inspection, Lei Xiao noticed.
In the fierce battle just now, our strong men who were well-equipped and had plenty of trump cards were almost intact, with only some scratches that have not yet fully healed.
As for the alchemical puppets, although they had suffered varying degrees of damage, they were not seriously injured and could repair themselves. The Guardian of the Earth and the Guardian of the Sky were partially destroyed and could be remade.
"Ye Cang, the job of treatment is now left to you."
Lei Xiao had just arranged everything when he saw the wood fairy Liz leading several other wood fairies exuding tremendous momentum and rushing over. Leading them were the wood fairy leader Chris, elder Ober and others.
"Your Majesty, I have heard everything from Liz."
When approaching, Chris's fair face was full of solemnity, and she said to Lei Xiao with gratitude: "Chris, the leader of the wood fairies, on behalf of the Fenglin Secret Realm and the surviving wood fairies here, thanks His Majesty the Human Race for the rescue and help!"
After saying that, Chris and a group of wood fairy elders folded their wings, lowered their bodies and touched their chests, bowing deeply to Lei Xiao.
"You are too polite, Chief. This is not something I can do alone. Both Elder Shult of the Tree People and His Highness Konete of the Dwarf Elves have made great contributions in this battle."
Lei Xiao squatted down, gently helped Chris up, and smiled, "Moreover, it was precisely because of the wood elves' perseverance and unyielding spirit in the face of adversity that they attracted most of the enemy's combat power and bought me time to locate the enemy's commander. Otherwise, things would never have gone so smoothly."
"I have long heard that Your Majesty has blessed the human world and is famous for his benevolence and integrity. Seeing you today, I can see that you are truly extraordinary."
Seeing that Lei Xiao did not take any credit for himself, Chris was grateful in her heart and could not help but look up to Lei Xiao a little more.
"Your Majesty, I am late."
At this moment, Bing Lao descended from the sky, nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "This old minister has found the core of the dimensional storm, it is not far from here!"
"Also, near the core, there is a very deep hidden space crack that can allow us to return to the secret realm of Fenglin!"
After hearing what Bing Lao said, Chris and the others couldn't help but feel excited, while Lei Xiao nodded slightly and asked, "Very good, it looks like we can leave now."
Lei Xiao clearly understood that the appearance of Bing Lao here meant that the same must be true for Bingshi City. Since Bingshi City could come here, it could naturally also return through the space crack.
In other words, all they had to do was gather all the people in the Ice Stone City and return together. After all, the number of the wood elves was quite large, and it was obviously beyond the scope of one-to-one teleportation.
Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao told Bing Lao his thoughts, and indeed he got a positive answer.
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing."
Old Bing nodded to Lei Xiao and continued, "I have just checked the magic sand table. The highland area in this strange land, which is where we are now, is surrounded by an invisible space barrier."
"Not only is Ice Stone City unable to leave this area, this old minister has also tried it himself and was also unable to leave this area and go to other unknown lands."
Bing Lao said this and added: "But local creatures are not blocked by the space barrier and can enter and exit freely."
"I see. It seems that before the plate war officially begins, the areas where the lords of the two lands can fight with the natives are relatively limited. This should be a deliberate restriction."
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully and said, "I think the land we are on has the same rules. Even if forces from other plates come here in this way, they cannot leave the designated area, and we will not be affected in any way."
"Your Majesty is right. I have discovered another interesting thing. That is, only we were passively teleported here, and the forces here seem unable to be passively teleported to us."
Bing Lao stroked his blue beard and continued.
"This is also expected. If both sides were teleported to each other's land, it would be difficult for them to face each other head-on. In this case, this mutant dimensional storm would undoubtedly lose its due effect, so one side must have been teleported."
Lei Xiao gently stroked his chin and thought: "However, the space crack next to the core of the dimensional storm should be an exception, allowing both the enemy and us to freely shuttle between the two areas, which adds some unpredictable variables to this sudden encounter."
"I have to say, things are really getting more and more interesting."
After summarizing the specific rules of the mutant dimensional storm connecting the two plates, Lei Xiao's brain continued to work at a high speed.
In addition, through the battle with the Skinny Lord just now, I also obtained some useful information.
First of all, not all overlord-level lords have mastered the power of God's favor, otherwise the other party would not show a surprised expression when seeing oneself using the power of God's favor.
Secondly, the other party didn't even know the existence of the [God's Stone]. Otherwise, when Xiao Jie showed up, the other party would definitely react. After all, the energy fluctuations emitted by the stone elf are completely different from those of other strong people.
Finally, the talents awakened by the lords are indeed varied and strange. Such tricky talents are definitely not rare, even for such insignificant foreign lords.
In other words, just as he had known before, the lord who could control the human world and then go out into the outside world would never be a good person, there was no doubt about that.
"According to the speculation of Qin Qian and others, there may be other large numbers of Great Xia lords who have descended on other plates. I hope they can also be successful."
While thinking this, Lei Xiao began to command his main subordinates and the soldiers of Bingshi City to clean up the battlefield. Since they had come here, they naturally could not return empty-handed.
Afterwards, Lei Xiao informed Chris of the summary, of course, omitting the information about the lords.
"So that's how it is. It looks like it was an unforgettable experience."
Chris's eyebrows slightly wrinkled, then relaxed again, and she said to Lei Xiao gratefully: "In short, if it weren't for the timely assistance of His Majesty the Human Race, the wood elves in the Fenglin Secret Realm would have suffered a devastating disaster just like their fellow tribesmen from foreign lands."
"Your Excellency Patriarch, I just said that this is the result of our concerted efforts. We only need to enter my city in a while and then we can return to the familiar land."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, the Ice Stone City that was originally hidden not far away slowly emerged. The towering and magnificent blue city walls made all the wood elves exclaim in amazement.
Lei Xiao then moved his gaze to the ruined wood goblin village vaguely visible in the distance and asked, "Sir Chief, what are you going to do with the wood goblins here?"
"To be honest with you, Your Majesty, only one in ten of our fellow aliens here are alive, and their homes have been completely destroyed, so I plan to bring them back to the Fenglin Secret Realm to start a new life."
Chris sighed softly and nodded at Lei Xiao.
"I understand. I respect the decision of the Patriarch."
Lei Xiao nodded without hesitation and said with a smile: "I will wait for the arrival of the wood fairies in Ice Stone City."
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty. I have just sent strong men to gather up the stragglers and the surviving fellow elves. See you later!"
Chris gave Lei Xiao a grateful smile, then flapped her wings and personally commanded the wood elves.
Looking at Chris's departing back, Lei Xiao did not stop, but under the guidance of Bing Lao, went to check the border of this strange land.
This is a rare opportunity, and since we still have some time, we must take a good look at it.
As expected, after reaching the border, a twisted translucent space wall appeared in front of Lei Xiao, and he could not move forward at all.
At the same time, Lei Xiao could not see the outside world clearly. According to Old Bing, even the magic sand table of Bingshi City could not obtain the terrain information of the outside world.
"That's interesting. Now that the skinny lord is dead, this land will gradually recover from the shadow of gray death, right?"
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, thinking in his heart: "I wonder how this place will develop without the Overlord-level Lord?"
Being curious, Lei Xiao did not stay any longer but returned to the area where Bingshi City was located.
Seeing that it would take some time to clean up the battlefield and gather the wood elves, Lei Xiao followed Bing Lao's guidance to the core of the dimensional storm.
I saw a gray energy ball with a diameter of about 1 meter tumbling and spinning in the air, making the surrounding space unreal and distorted, which was very similar to the core of the dimensional storm that Lei Xiao had seen before.
But there is one thing that is completely different, that is, the core of this mutated dimensional storm is extremely vague, even appearing and disappearing from time to time, and it is obviously not in the real space.
"Your Majesty, I have checked it carefully. The core should be at the intersection of the two pieces of land, not just on a certain piece of land. This is why such a strange scene appeared."
Bing Lao touched his chest and saluted, and then reported: "In other words, we can also see the core of the storm in the land we are familiar with."
"So, as long as one side destroys the core, this spatially intertwined battle can be ended early?"
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully and said, "But at the beginning, I'm afraid this core won't be revealed, right?"
"Your Majesty is right. I think so too. Initially, there was indeed no trace of the core in Ice Stone City."
Bing Lao echoed Lei Xiao's words and added: "I speculate that when the core appears, the passive transmission will probably end."
"That makes sense. It seems we have roughly grasped the information about the mutant dimensional storm."
Lei Xiao said this with a faint smile: "This is a conclusion exclusive to the winner."
After our soldiers finished cleaning up the battlefield and returned, the wood elves were all settled in the city. Lei Xiao returned to the command hall and looked at the magic sand table.
Amid the exclamations of Chris and other wood fairies who came to the command hall for the first time, they saw that the magic sand table indeed only showed a small piece of this strange land, but at a slightly higher and parallel position, the outline of the secret realm of the peak forest was revealed.
The two are connected by a twisted space channel, which is obviously a wormhole visible to the naked eye.
Looking at this high-tech scene, Lei Xiao did not hesitate and immediately ordered: "Then, let's return to that familiar land."
