Chapter 1370 The Eternal Truth
Chapter 1370 The Eternal Truth
"Time is running out. What exactly do you want to do? Please tell me clearly."
Feeling the twinkling light in the other's starry eyes, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly. The profound meaning contained in those eyes, filled with excitement, excitement and curiosity, made people feel a little uncomfortable.
Beside Lei Xiao, Louise and Diana subconsciously stood in front of the former, looking at each other with vigilance.
"I want you to take me away from here and see the vast world outside!"
An excited blush appeared on the fair face of the young dark elf, and he spoke bluntly.
"So that's it."
Hearing the voice, Lei Xiao couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Not only Lei Xiao, Louise and Diana also had the same expression. It seemed that things were not as they thought. This young dark elf seemed to be just too naive.
After he heaving a sigh of relief, Lei Xiao's face was filled with confusion again, and he asked the other party in confusion: "But why me?"
"Because I have detected a lot of similar auras in you."
The young dark elf raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Being recognized by so many of your kind is enough to prove that you are not a bad person."
"Similar scent?"
Lei Xiao was stunned at first, then he immediately thought of something and looked at Xiao Jie and Xiao Huan on the other side.
The multiple items that he possessed that could be called of the same kind by the other party were naturally the [God's Stone], and the stone elves that had appeared at present were Xiao Jie and Xiao Huan.
It is well known that only the [God's Stone], which is created by God, has the ability to sense each other, which cannot be replaced by any strong person.
"My Lord, I did not detect any similar aura from the other party."
Xiao Jie immediately understood what Lei Xiao meant and shook her head in confusion.
Next to Xiaojie, Xiaohuan had the same expression and quickly shook his head.
"It would be strange if they found out. Don't forget that I am best at concealing my aura."
The young dark elf still looked calm and said with a smile: "Since I can avoid being discovered by the strong ones, I can naturally avoid being discovered by my own kind."
After saying that, the young dark elf shook his long gray hair, and a hidden special energy wave surged out.
"My Lord, she is indeed one of my kind, and of the same rank as mine!"
Xiao Jie reacted immediately and blurted out, and Xiao Huan also nodded.
"I didn't expect there was such a special ability."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, looking as if he had suddenly understood something.
In this case, it is not surprising that the other party appears here.
There must be a "Gate of Truth" hidden here. Both the "Gate of Truth" and the "Stone of God" were created after the blank era, so they naturally cannot be called the indigenous inhabitants of this ancient mine.
But it is undeniable that if the other party was able to move freely in the mine from the beginning, he had indeed lived with the dark elves for nearly three thousand years.
As for why the other party looks exactly like the dark elf, that is easier to explain.
After all, the stone elves can perfectly transform into any familiar race. It is not surprising that they look like this after spending such a long time with those dark elf miners.
"But this raises a new question. According to my previous understanding, the stone elves should not be able to leave their own "Gate of Truth" on their own. After all, the "Gate of Truth" still needs the "Key of Truth" to open it."
"And, according to this guy, she obviously doesn't have an owner, and she hasn't seen anyone other than us. If she doesn't have an owner, how did this guy get out?"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao calmed his mind, looked again at the strange stone elf with an expectant look on his face, and a hint of excitement surged in his heart.
Now is not the time to explore these things, but what is certain is that since the other party plans to leave here and has come to find me, I naturally cannot miss it.
After all, one of his goals is to collect more [God's Stones].
More importantly, this is a sixth-order [God's Stone] of the same level as Xiao Jie, and it can also hide itself perfectly. Its help to our future is self-evident, especially under the premise that the human race is currently extremely short of top-level combat power.
"Sir, I agree with your proposal. I am willing to take you to see the vast world outside. This is your destiny, and it is also my destiny."
Lei Xiao looked serious and nodded to the young dark elf.
"Great!"
The young dark elf almost jumped up and said excitedly, "I'll let them leave right away. Please wait a moment!"
After saying that, the young dark elf flashed and appeared at the front of our team.
She walked leisurely towards the densely packed dark elf miners outside the passage, and said in a very familiar voice: "Did everyone hear it? They are all my companions now, the companions I have always dreamed of!"
"I assure you that they are definitely not bad people, and they are definitely not the ones who attacked you in the first place."
After hearing the words of the young dark elf, the group of dark elf miners and soldiers who were filled with murderous intent restrained their hostility, nodded slightly, and then dispersed, and soon disappeared in front of everyone.
Seeing that the crisis had been resolved, everyone on our side couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from their heads.
Among them, several strong men such as Nar and Broy, after relaxing, almost collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.
And when Ruth, Myron and other light half-elves looked at Lei Xiao, there was a hint of hidden admiration in their eyes.
In the conversation between Lei Xiao and the strange stone elf just now, there was no mention of any terms such as "God's Stone", "Stone Elves", "Gate of Truth", etc., so they didn't even know what exactly happened.
After all, for the races from outside the domain, the [God's Stone] that can only be obtained with the "Key of Truth" is also an extremely rare and mysterious thing.
They only knew that the two strong men around Lei Xiao seemed to be of the same kind as the young dark elf, although they could not find out what kind of connection existed between them.
As for our allies such as Fanny, Chris, and Broy, they also looked at Lei Xiao with admiration. Although they only had a vague understanding of the [God's Stone], Lei Xiao had mentioned it before after all, so they were not as confused as Ruth and others.
In any case, what is certain is that it was precisely because Lei Xiao reached a consensus with the young dark elf that we were able to break free from the sudden encirclement just now!
"Okay, now they won't treat you as enemies."
The strange stone elf came back to Lei Xiao with a hop and a skip, puffed out his chest and said, "I have fulfilled the agreement, so don't break your promise!"
"Don't worry, this is also a good thing for me. How could I break my promise?"
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said with a smile: "From now on, we are partners in times of difficulty."
"Thank you, sir! I'm so happy!"
The strange stone elf jumped up excitedly and was about to jump onto Lei Xiao, but was stopped by Louise, Diana, Xiaojie and others who were still extremely alert.
After all, the other party has not signed a contract with the lord, so he naturally has to be cautious. The most important thing is that the other party is obviously too familiar.
"Then I'll give you a name first."
Lei Xiao smiled helplessly at first, then looked at the other party's slender body, and said thoughtfully: "Since you are good at hiding your breath and can approach the opponent very quietly, then I will call you Xiao Jing."
"Xiao Jing? I have my own name now!"
The stone elf Xiao Jing blinked her starry eyes, her fair face full of excitement, and said to Lei Xiao excitedly: "Thank you, sir!"
"You are Welcome."
Lei Xiao waved his hand and nodded to signal the team to continue moving forward. He then asked Xiao Jing, "What's going on with those dark elves that are filled with murderous intent?"
"It seems that Your Excellency has also discovered their unusualness."
The smile on Xiao Jing's fair face faded, and she nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "The reason why they are in this ambiguous state is that their life source has, in a sense, merged with the mine."
"How can this be?"
A trace of confusion immediately emerged on Ruth's delicate face. She asked with a puzzled look, "Only by meeting many harsh conditions can the continuation of the origin of life be guaranteed. The most important point is to have a suitable container, and containers are extremely rare. The number of these dark elves is so large, so the number of containers required is naturally also extremely large. How is this done?"
"The answer is actually very simple."
Xiao Jing followed Lei Xiao obediently and reminded him, "Don't forget that this is a mine, and it is a mine that produces rare resources."
"Sir, do you mean to say..."
Ruth heard the voice and obviously thought of something. She blurted out, "Could it be that there are many untapped resources here that can be used as containers?"
"That's right, but the quality of these natural containers is relatively limited and they are unpolished, so by chance, this seemingly correct situation occurred."
Xiao Jing shrugged and responded, "Their life essence has long been incomplete, and they can't even communicate. There are only some fragmented memory fragments left, and the mine has preserved these fragments."
"But don't underestimate them. Although they cannot exert their full strength, their strength is still overwhelming to you. And the more they gather together, the more stable their power will be. There will never be the scattered situations that you encountered at the beginning."
Xiao Jing shrugged and concluded: "That's why I stopped that reckless dragon head at the critical moment, otherwise he would be torn to pieces in the next second."
Hearing Xiao Jing's words, Nar couldn't help but shrink his neck, and beads of cold sweat appeared on his face again.
The rest of our group all showed a look of sudden enlightenment, it turned out that this was the truth here.
"Now I understand it completely. I didn't expect that this ancient mine still hides such an ancient secret."
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and looked at Ruth, Myron and others.
Although the light half-elves were extremely surprised by Xiaojing's appearance, they did not show any expected or other expressions.
This means that Xiaojing, the stone elf, is not their target, and what they really want is somewhere in this mine.
"But please rest assured, Your Excellency. Although they cannot communicate and are extremely irritable and easily angered, I have been with them day and night for nearly three thousand years and have established a deep friendship and trust with them. So as long as I speak, they will no longer be hostile to you."
After saying that, Xiao Jing puffed out her chest again, blinked her big eyes, and looked expectantly waiting for Lei Xiao's praise.
"Xiao Jing, it's all thanks to you."
Lei Xiao casually touched the other person's head, and an enjoyable expression immediately appeared on the latter's fair face, like a purring kitten.
Then, Lei Xiao changed the subject and asked, "Xiao Jing, is there anything else worth noting in this ancient mine?"
"Let me think about it. After all, in the past three thousand years, I have been playing hide-and-seek and wandering around with the dark elves every day, visiting every corner here."
Xiao Jing tilted her head and thought for a while, then responded: "There are still many magic traps here that were accidentally triggered by those guys with shiny faces just now. I am not familiar with those things, so I don't know the details."
At this point, Xiao Jing's eyes lit up and she continued, "By the way, in a management area similar to the one just now, there is also a completely black crystal ball, filled with black mist. I don't know what it is used for, but judging from the performance of those dark elves, it seems to be an extremely precious item."
"Your Excellency, may I ask how big the black crystal ball is?"
Before Xiaojing could finish her words, Ruth's eyes lit up and she blurted out the answer immediately.
"It's about the size of two fists."
Xiao Jing compared her fist to hers and responded, "But in my opinion, they are not as beautiful as those shiny minerals."
After that, Xiao Jing seemed to realize something, stared at Ruth meaningfully, and said, "Ms. Shining, you were so anxious to explore the office area that you ignored the summoning trap hidden in the corner. Are you looking for the crystal ball?"
"This……"
Hearing this, Ruth was speechless for a moment, and other light half-elves such as Mellen also looked confused as to how to respond. After all, Lei Xiao had already made it clear.
Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao looked very interested.
The reason why he asked this question just now was to find out what the light half-elf really wanted, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth and let Xiaojing reveal the truth directly.
After thinking for a while, Ruth seemed to have made up her mind and finally said her real purpose. (End of this chapter)
